Lion download, how to keep install file.

Well, I've downloaded Lion. Once I'd decided how to download it and where to put it to avoid messing up a perfectly good Snow Leopard which was on the internal startup drive, it went very smoothly, only took about 45 mins. I started up on a SuperDuper! clone on an external drive and put Lion there.
As advised here, did remember to 'pull' InstallESD.dmg after downloading but before installing in case it's needed again.
I now have saved:
Install Mac OS X Lion.app 3.77 GB
InstallESD.dmg 3.75 GB
Can I trash 'Install Mac OS X Lion.app' or does it do something important?

Thanks. Think I will keep both for the time being. I tried Option + click on Installed (and holding Option) but it won't budge from Installed. This what I think is happening judging from other posts here. Lion is installed on an external drive - disconnected. However the installer package is Saved on the Internal and the App Store is probably 'Seeing" this. Think I will not mess about with anything at the moment.
Don't really like the App Store in principle, too easy to have 'misunderstandings', put credit card on it just to get Lion, and removed credit card details within 24 hours of downloading Lion.
Only got Lion to play with and think it's a very good idea to have it on its own external drive as a SECONDARY! boot option.

How to keep both file when paste

hi to every one
I would like to know how to keep both files have the same name when I copy one of them to the other folder , since I have tow options only : replace or skip !!!!!!!!!! in windows 8

I suspect that that's how it is supposed to be, Cyber_Defend_Team. However, I can confirm that in Windows 8.1, when I attempt to Copy and Paste files, like from my camera's SD card which starts it's numbering system at 0 each time, to my photo folder,
I only have the following options:
Replace the file in the destination
Skip this file
Compare info for both files
Now, when I choose the Compare info for both files option, I get a secondary dialogue which shows me a thumbnail of both pictures and has a checkbox for each one in two columns (there is also a checkbox at the top of each column for multiple photos to select
all in a given column). I'm given only two buttons on this screen, Continue and Cancel.
As such, Lany Zhang, I don't think that this question can be considered answered as it isn't.

How to keep PDF file clear once its been reduced in size

Does anyone know how to keep you PDF file resolution as clear as u originally placed it once you reduce the size of its properties?

Obviously if you reduce the resolution of the images, or compress them more sharply, you can lose quality. It is up to you to experiment with the settings to find a compromise between size and quality. There is no magic bullet.

Photoshop 6 (Subscription, standard ed) download problem. Keeps installing Ps 6 extended trial.

Hello all
Yesterday I purchased a subscription (year long plan) to photoshop 6. Evereything seemed to get fine. I got the email with confirmation and download instruction. Followed the instructions, but the adobe app manager keeps installing (tried three times now) trial version of the photoshop 6 extended. I have been going trough the discussions over and over again trying to find a fix but haven't found one.

OK, FINALLY found a solution. And I'm sure this concerns everybody in the the non english areas so spread the word. When you open the adobe application manager, before installing anything check your presets (upper left corner of the adobe app window, arrow next to your adobe ID) to make sure that the preset language is the same as the one in the product you ordered/subscribed to.
In my case, when I subscribed to photoshop I selected the english version. But once I started installing the software the app manager had automatically set the language as finnish so I was installing a product I wasn't subscribed to and therefore it installs the trial version of the ps extended instead.

File browse : How to keep the file path in the file browse field?

Hello,
I have
1) file browse field called P2_FILE_PATH.
2) a select list with submit : P2_REGION
If i upload some file d:\abc.gif , then select some region in the P2_REGION,
P2_FILE_PATH will become empty. But in the session, i can find the blob value. but not the "d:\abc.gif "
Using the following script I could capture the value of P2_FILE_PATH in a field
P2_TEST.
onload="javascript:document.getElementById(P2_FILE_PATH').value = document.getElementById('P2_TEST').value;"
P2_TEST contains d:\abc.gif .
How to retain the file path, though some other field is selected and submitted?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Archana

Hello Archana,
You can't do what you want because of some HTML security restrictions – nothing to do with APEX. As you found out, You can capture the value of this item. You can't set it. After submitting the page, the browser is the one to clear the item.
The only workaround is to work with AJAX and not submit the page until the end of the user input phase.

How to keep all files in differents browsers

I use differents browsers how to keep the bookmarks organised in all of them ?
Is better url manager or Bookit ?
Thanks

What del.icio.us would do is make all bookmarks you create there available to any browser on any computer you happen to be using. It will not give you the same set of bookmarks in each of your browsers. I mentioned it because it has become a popular way of keeping bookmarks which is not dependant on any one browser and is available even when you are not on your own computer.
The bookmark/url managers would be the better way to go to actually manage the bookmarks in your various managers. With them being shareware, you can try them out to see it they fit your needs before you would have to pay for them. The two I mentioned both got high user ratings on VersionTracker. You might be able to find other url managers there as well. It has been a while since I tried any url managers myself, so I cannot give a personal recommendation on any of these programs.

2004s file download (how to not store files in context?)

Hi,
I want to use FileDownload element in my web dynpro application.
I use the new type resource and my own input source implementation, which generates files on the fly.
Each download call should result in a new file. These files can be very large (some MB).
For obvious reasons I don't want the server to store the byte data in application context (200 users * 2 MB ....)
How can I do this?
If I use resource as context element and set debug points on my input stream, I can see the data is read just on time if the user wants to download.
I create my data in my inputstream and the download starts. So far so good.
On the second click on the download link the download starts without any read operation. Thats the problem.
Possible reasons:
First: the data is read and stored to the context on the first download. this would be bad! context would get very very large. not working for me.
second: the browser or the server caches the data. how can I avoid this?
thx in advance
btw I read a tutorial about up and downloading. this pointed to an additional article called something like "downloading in web dynpro tables". But I can't find it. There the on demand downloading should be explained. any help would be great.

Hallo Thomas,
ok, the "default" on-demand streaming solution caches a Web Resource but does not re-calculate it again afterwards.
I wrote a Wiki Code Tutorial which demonstrates how to download an Excel File from a Web Dynpro table UI element on-demand. In this scenario the resource must also be re-created on every request. The solution is based on re-initializing the context with a new 0-byte resource objects within the calculated context attribute getter method.
See <a href="https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/ExportingTableDatainWebDynproJava-SAPNetWeaver04s">Exporting Table Data in Web Dynpro Java - SAP NetWeaver 04s</a>
For you the most important line of code in

 * @param element the element requested for the value

 } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
 wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException(e.getLocalizedMessage(), true);
 // Reset context attribute 'Excel.Resource' again by creating a new 0-byte resource object.

I just bought a new MacBook Air with Lion. How can I install Lion on my MacPro?

If the way I get Lion is only pre-installed on the new computer, I'm wondering how I would go about installing it on another Mac that I already own. Thanks!

Apple may have used the App store version of Lion as a temporary distribution channel for its brief free upgrade program in July, but Apple has never in the past continuously licensed the OS that comes with a new computer for use also on additional computers. The situation with Lion is therefore nothing new. The App store product is equivalent to the old "retail DVD" that you could buy for previous OS versions - they are both meant for older computers that shipped with earlier OS versions, and neither is free. The difference in the case of Lion is that you are getting something similar to the old "family-pack" retail DVD at no extra cost.
Details are in the Lion OS X 7.2 license agreement, available here.
http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/macosx1072.pdf
It includes the following, which makes clear that the new-product license and the App store license are different entities:
2. Permitted License Uses and Restrictions.
A. Standard and Preinstalled Apple Software License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, unless you obtained the Apple Software from the Mac App Store, on Apple- branded physical media (e.g., on an Apple-branded USB memory stick) or under a volume license, maintenance or other written agreement from Apple, you are granted a limited, non- exclusive license to install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple- branded computer at any one time. For example, these standard single-copy license terms apply to you if you obtained the Apple Software preinstalled on Apple-branded hardware.
B. License from Mac App Store or on Physical Media. If you obtained a license for the Apple Software from the Mac App Store or on Apple-branded physical media, then subject to the terms and conditions of this License and as permitted by the Mac App Store Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms and Conditions (http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/ww/) (“Usage Rules”), you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license:
(i ) to download, install, use and run for personal, non-commercial use, one (1) copy of the Apple Software directly on each Apple-branded computer running Mac OS X Snow Leopard or Mac OS X Snow Leopard Server (“Mac Computer”) that you own or control;

OS X Lion downloaded but won't install?

I downloaded OS X Lion, took me 1.5 days. I have the Lion and arrow icon on the dock. I click on it. The installer launches and asks me to agree to terms and conditions, I agree and then it asks me to choos the disk where Lion will be installed but nothing happens: I can't choose the disk, I can't go forward. I can only go backwards where it asks me again to agree to terms and conditions. Talk about One Infinite Loop!
I have not been able to find proper help on apple.com and the technicians at my local Mac Store haven't a clue.
I have tried to re-download and it will not let me, arguing that Lion is already installed, which is not.
Please help!

hmm... that's strange.
What I did on my adventure was...
removed the installer from the dock, put it in the trash. restarted trying to get into my bootcamp partition, or I suppose the support guys wanted to make sure there wasn't something amiss with it.
I too could not "re-download" from the app store. They never did address this. The alt / option keys are the same.
After this I went into 10.6.8 again and got a similar error; but after I selected the disk to install on. it would say 'preparing to install'... 3 minutes, 2 minutes... 'will restart in 30 seconds' and then would error out saying 'please try again'. Initially they thought my installer was corrupt but it wasn't. After I unmounted the install image from the desktop it worked.
They mentioned that if you have a really large bootcamp partition they were seeing problems with that. Maybe try a reboot and hold down (option?) to get into the selection list for Mac / bootcamp, select the mac h/d and retry?
I don't know if this helps or not but my installer (whcih worked) is 12,034,297 bytes. the whole install shows a size of 3,802,959,872 (that's all the files/folders on the usb). I'd hate to see you go through the download again and run into the problem again. I'd say if you got the same size files it's a conflict with the installer.

Lion download only w/o installing

I'm supporting a computer 90 miles away, and the user has a really slow internet connection. I need to be there for the install, but not the download. Can I have her download Lion but not install until I'm there? I've install Lion on two computers, and I just can't remember if this was an option.
Thanks

Hi..
If it's a really slow internet connnection, since Lion is a 4GB file, itls more than likely the download will time out before the download is completed.
And just so you are aware, if Lion is installled, if the startup disk needs repairing or the Mac OS X reinstalled, it requires high speed internetc (broadband) connection to do so.
Requirements for reinstalling OS X Lion
"Reinstalling OS X Lion via Lion Recovery requires broadband access to the Internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X Lion is downloaded over the Internet from Apple when Lion Recovery is used for reinstallation."
From here > OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery
An alternative would be to purchase the OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive - Apple Store (U.S.)
