Maverick Calendar Location Names rather than Street Addressses

Perhaps I've been using Calendar Locations "wrong" all this time. I've always entered the location name and full address there. I also have a separate calendar that I call "travel time" where I block out time in the car or on the bus, so I was THRILLED to see that the new and improved Calendar would actually do that for me.
Except that it only works if I enter only the address and the not the location name in the location field. Is there any way to override this? 
Now, instead of my calendar saying
Snorkel with the Fish
Sea Life Minnesota Aquarium
Mall of America
120 East Broadway
Bloomington, MN 55425
it says ...
Snorkel with the Fish
120 East Broadway
Bloomington, MN 55425
I guess that I know what's at "120 East Broadway", but "Sea Life Minnesota Aquarium" is much more informative to me that "120 East Broadway" — especially when I'm not familiar with an address.
I know that I can just change the event title to "Snorkel with the Fish — Sea Life Minnesota Aquarium", but I'd rather not have to do that.
Is there any way to keep the location name in the location field and still make use of the travel time feature?
I do have Sea Life Minnesota Aquarium in my Contacts.
Thanks for your help.

Funny - after my testing out of Nokia Drive+ and realizing all the limitations listed compared to an OLD Garmin Nuvi AND no glimmer of hope or response for a month, I actually went out and bought a Nuvi 3490 instead. I'm currently not using my Nokia Drive for any navigation...
I could see myself start using it again if some of the features, incl. traffic information being part of routing decisions making it's way back. But for long haul navigation, everything needs to be there, and still the Nuvi 3490 wins hands down. And since that is now already paid for also with life time updates to maps and traffic info, it now requires a signficantly BETTER navigation app to bring me back.
One thing I would like to see though that will make Nokia my most used daily navigation tool is the Nokia Commute app for Copenhagen area. That apps approach for short haul routine routing is really attractive.
I originally went for the Nokia Lumia series over competing WP8 vendors due to the strong software add-ons with the mapping functionality being a key factor. There's still many other elemeents that just make Nokia a bit better, but the one I thought was the biggest turned out to not be enough, and that has now put aside as I got a better navigation system than any phone can currently offer - thus making the playing field a little bit more level across WP vendors. Nokia needs to work MUCH harder and faster, if they want to differentiate themselves on mapping / navigaiton. Granted there's other areas like photo quality, social apps, build quality, accessories, etc. I would like to put Nokia Music in there as well, but that has never launched in Denmark after 3 years...

  • Sorting files by file name rather than ID Tags

    Some of my files have incomplete or missing ID Tags ( a lot of mp3's from vinyl) making sorting more difficult and I typically find it more usefull to sort by file name rather than ID Tag anyway. Does anyone know how to sort by file name?

    Aloha!
    While this is not possible in iTunes right now, I might be able to help.
    It sounds like you've taken care to ensure that your music is properly labeled. That should make it easy to use a third party app to tag the lot as a batch. I am aware of one application that folks around here seem to like called "Tag & Rename" that can build a set of tags for you from folder and file names. I believe it has (or had) a free demo period as well. Try a google search or check out sites like versiontracker and you will find several apps that can do the task for you.
    Once done, iTunes will be able to handle the collection that has apparently been with you for some time. Hope this helps you decide on a course of action.

  • Change Dimension Attribute to group by name rather than key

    Hi
    I am taking over a cube which has been built for speed rather than functionality. For example if you bring one dimension in and a measure you would get a result like this.
    ? 200
    Mancheste 400
    Manchester 200
    ? 100
    Derby 5
    when really it should look like this
    ? 300
    Mancheste 600
    Derby 5
    I believe this can be changed in the dimension attributes group it on name rather than key (although you get slower performance) but I can't find where about I change this

    hi,
    If you in BIDS, select the attribute you want to change and look at properties.
    Under the properties group Source, you have the definition for KeyColumn and NameColumn.
    My understanding is that you would want a keycolumn which is on the same level as your name column.
    I e change the key column to a better one.
    (Optionally, but not as good, you could set the KeyColumn to the same column as your name column)
    best wishes /Carl
    thanks I would mark this as the answer but it won't let me for some strange reason.

  • OT: Did you know you can change your profile to show your real name, rather than just your Adobe ID?

    I realize this is off-topic for this particular forum, but I hope it may help some readers. Since this forum is "where I live" in the Adobe forums, I wanted top share it here first. Perhaps after some feedback to refine things, I may post it elsewhere (another forum perhaps, and/or my blog).
    As I was answering a question from someone, finding myself again able only to refer to them by their brief Adobe ID (which often seems to have no connection at all to their name), I wondered:
    Do people realize that they can change their forum identity so that their real name (or whatever other identifying info) shows up rather than just their brief Adobe ID? It's just that some folks would much prefer "talking" with someone by refer to them by their real name (or at least something more than just their Adobe ID).:-)
    I suppose some may choose intentionally to remain “relatively anonymous” with just that ID to identify them, but I think many more simply don't know that they *can* change what's shown. You can. But it seems we can't do it inside the forums software itself.
    Instead, we just need to modify our "Adobe account" to associate a name with our ID (which of course could have benefit in other places where our names might be used).
    You can do by going to https://www.adobe.com/account.html, then choose “My Information” (and login if prompted). Then, on the page shown, under the section “My Personal Profile” you can fill in the first and last name fields. (You can also your password here, and it seems even your username.)
    It may be possible that after making that change, you would need to sign out and back into the forums (forums.adobe.com) for the change to be picked up, but if it is, you should then see "Welcome [your name]" in the top right corner of the forums page, if it's worked.
    And now any forum messages you create should have that name at the top of the message when people read it, and it would also be in the FROM address if people receive it as email (note we're NOT talking about your email address. That is never shown. If people reply to forum messages received by email, the reply goes back to a generic forum email address.)
    Hope all that's helpful to someone.
    BTW, I had done the change myself a long time ago, so I'm retracing these steps now for others to do it. If you try it and can confirm that it works, please drop a note here. Thanks.

    It works, thanks!

  • OLAP query returning "name" rather than "key" attribute for a dimension

    Hello,
    I am busy with a project that involves drawing data from an OLAP cube (in SAP BW), then transforming and contextualising for use in an EMI environment. The project runs on MII 12.1.
    The standard OLAP connector and OLAP queries have been used (would prefer not to go the route of creating a call to the OLAP XMLA web service directly). One of the important dimensions is returned as a name (descriptive text) rather than a key (the cost element code itself), preventing us from reliably applying business rules to classify cost elements. Categorising cost elements based on their text descriptions is not a sustainable solution.
    The output needs to allow for two dimensions (cost element and an equipment identifier) against which individual cost values will be listed. It appears that the two dimensions must both be on the "x-axis", as result columns are automatically renamed, e.g. C000001, C000002, etc. If anyone knows of a way to suppress this renaming behaviour, please let me know.
    Is it possible to force the "key" attribute to be returned instead of the "name" attribute? I have identified two preferred options:
    1. MDX syntax of the query itself
    2. configuration of the OLAP connector
    I have not found a way to do this through MDX syntax, but would welcome any suggestions.
    Alternatively, perhaps there is a non-standard way of configuring the OLAP connector so that the key rather than the name attribute is returned for all dimensions. Has anyone anything, e.g. chosen a non-standard ColumnNameAttribute or DataTypeAttribute, in this regard?
    Thanks,
    Marc Chaplin

  • Names Rather than Numbers

  • Is it possible to view ".mp3" files in Mavericks "Tags" windows by file name (rather than the info in the "name" field of it's ID3 tag)?

    Short version:
    When viewing ".mp3" files in a "Tags" window, the information in the "name" column next to the file defaults to the information in the "song" field in the file's ID3 tag.
    Is it possible to change have the "name" column display the actual FILE NAME instead?
    I did some research and found nothing.
    Long version
    Let's say I have a ".mp3" file named "Todd Rundgren - Hello It's Me.mp3"
    When I open the folder this ".mp3" is in and find the file, the "name" column will read "Todd Rundgren - Hello It's Me.mp3" (of course)
    Now, I tag the file "jams"
    Now I go to my "jams" tag view everything tagged "jams", the "name" column in that window DOES NOT say
    "Todd Rundgren - Hello It's Me.mp3" , but instead just "Hello It's Me"
    The finder seems to be pulling this information from the "name" field of the ".mp3" ID3 tag metadata (aka, the information that would be written in the "name" column when viewing the file in iTunes.)
    Ok, that's fine Mavericks, but I want to see the ACTUAL FILE NAME of my ".mp3", (which "tags" windows seems to do for most other things [documents, folders])
    Q: Is it possible to display the filename of a ".mp3" file when viewing a "tag window?"
    Tags are super useful, but this inconsistency makes it inefficient, distracting, and confusing to move freely between the window for a given "tag", and a normal "finder" window.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    I think you have to avoid editing inside the tags list with the 'metadata names'. Instead right click an item, select 'Open enclosing folder'.
    In 'real folders' you can enable the 'Title' in column via the 'Veiw Menu > show columns', that way you can see the file name & ID3/ EXIF titles.
    'Fake folders' (smart searches & the recent tags list) don't feel finished yet IMO.

  • When using 2 printers at 2 locations. Rather than make sure the correct printer is shown when I print is there a way to make one change when I change locations?s there a way to

    I have 2 residences each with a printer. When I move from one place to another and try to print I always have to make sure the correct printer is shown in the print window. What can I do to make one change on my MacBook Pro when I change locations so I am not bothered with this nuisance problem?

    There was a way from OS9 location manager to set a default printer for any given location. This is not the case in OSX.
    You can however, easily change the default printer in Terminal.app with lpoptions -d PRINTERNAME. To view all the printers type lpstat -p. Keep in mind that the name in lpstat -p may be a little different than the name in Printer Setup Utility. You must use the lpstat -p, PRINTERNAME when changing it in Terminal.app. Of course, if the names are the same, you don't need to worry about it.

  • Change the Finder search default to Find by Name (search by file name) rather than Find by Content

    I just discovered another way to set the finder Find option to default to "find by name" (search by file name). I'm using Mac OS X 10.8.5 Mountain Lion. I'm not sure if this works on other OS versions, but it probably does.
    Here's a step by step:
    #1: Open System Preferences
    #2: Click on "Keyboard"
    #3: Click on "Keyboard Shortcuts"
    #4: Click on "Application Shortcuts" (on my system this was the last item located on the left-hand side window)
    #5: Click the little "+" right below the right-hand side window
    #6: Click on the "Application" menu and choose "finder.app"
    #7: Click into the field "Menu Title:" and type "Find by Name..." (Type it exactly like that including the three dots. Don't type the quotes BTW.)
    #8: Click into the field "Keyboard Shortcut:" and press the command-key and F at the same time. It should look like this ⌘F
    #9: Close System Preferences
    That's it. Basically what you are doing is remapping the command-F key (⌘F) to "Find By Name".
    I tried to post this to other previous discussions asking this same question, but they were all locked.

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • Can I create a calendar in French rather than in my default English?

    I want to create a 2009 calendar to send to a French-speaking friend. It would be nice if I could produce one that displays the names of the months etc in her own language. Is there a straight-forward way to create an iPhoto calendar in French instead of my default English?

    virro:
    I believe you can go to the System/International preference pane and set the computer's language to French. That should let you create your calendar in French and order it. Then reset the default language back to English.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • How to connect the database (JDBC) using service name rather than SID

    How should we make the connection to the database using service name. Initially, we are using the SID to make the database connection, with following setting in the data-source.xml in OC4J using ABCDB as the SID.
    <data-sources>
         <data-source
              class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
              name="jdbc/ABCDB"
              location="jdbc/ABCDB"
              pooled-location="jdbc/OracleDSPooled"
              xa-location="jdbc/xa/OracleDSXA"
              connection-driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
              username="ABC"
              password="ABC"
              url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@191.1.4.126:1521:ABCDB"
         />
    </data-sources>
    It work, but now we need to make the connection using this service name ABCSERVICE, but it doesn't work in the OC4J (JDBC). May I know how should we handle this connection?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Pang

    Finally, I got the solution to make the database connection using service name, with putting the tnsname setting in URL portion.
    url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@(description=(address=(host=191.1.4.126)(protocol=tcp)(port=1521))(connect_data=(SERVICE_NAME = ABCSERVICE)))"
    And now, it is working fine.

  • How do I re-register my MacBook in my name, rather than the previous owner?

    I just purchased a older MacBook, i've reinstalled the OS X Yosemite and did the whole factory reset thing, the previous owner's account, apps and information has all been completely wiped.. How ever I think the MacBook is still some how registered to the previous owner... My iPhone sees it still being named the name the previous owner gave it? I'm trying to set up the whole "text and receive calls from my MacBook" but I think that it still being registered to the previous owner is not allowing me to use this feature. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make sure the previous owner is in no way tied to my new MacBook? and how I can "re-register it" into my name?
    Not sure if my questions makes a lot of sense or not, but anything helpful would be appreciated!
    -Andrew

    You restored OS X from the previous owners recovery partition. That Mac shipped with OS X Snow Leopard and unless you have the original discs you'll need to buy a retail copy of SL http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard and use it to completely erase the hard drive and reinstall OS X as a new Mac That can be registered to you. Once you upgrade to 10.6.8 you can then upgrade to Yosemite for free.

  • When I add text to a PDF, I am forced to change the file name rather than just updating the current file.  Why?

    I have been doing the same process for months and until recently I could just add text to a pdf, click save, adobe would ask me if I wanted to replace the current file, I'd say yes and we would be done.  Now I get a message that says "The document could not be saved.  Cannot save to this filename. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder." It does this about 70% of the time.  The rest of the time it works like it used to.

    You cannot skip arguments, you can either use the function with one
    argument (just the required argument), or you have to provide all of them.
    Also, it looks like you are trying to specify 20 parameters, even though
    the function only takes 19. Try the following:
    Call jso.addWaterMarkFromText("Test Text", jso.app.Constants.Align.Center,
    jso.Font.Helv, 16, _
        jso.Color.Black, 0, 0, True, True, True, _
        jso.app.Constants.Align.Center, jso.app.Constants.Align.Center, _
        100, 100, False, 1, False, 0, 1)
    I just typed this in without running it through the compiler, so there may
    be typos in the code, but you should get the idea of how the code is
    supposed to look like.
