MBP Display Parameters for Running Soloris in Parallels

I just got Solaris installed through Parallels. Thing is, Soloris doesn't recognize any of the video parameters through Parallels. I have to go in there and put them in manually. Currently, the res is stuck at 1600x1200 which is too big for my display.
I've tried the following with no success:
1. login as root run: kdmconfig
2. choose: Xsun server
3. Select: Change Video Device/Monitor
4. Then start selecting the type of monitor.
: XF86-VESA Unknown Vendor Unknown Board
: Notebook LCD XGA 48 kHz (800x600 @56Hz and 1024x768 Interlaced)
: 15 inch
: 1024x768 - 65536 colors @ 60Hz
Any success stories or suggestions?

Parallels support is at http://forums.parallels.com/. As for Solaris I guess you need to find their support site.

Right Parameters for running a package in custom menu

Hi Expert,
In one of my project I am creating custom menu where I need to define various macros.I am getting error in one of the VBA code that is as follow:-
Sub Step3_RunAlloc_Click()
Application.Run "MNU_eDATA_SELECTPACKAGE", "Rent Allocation", "ZBPC_RENT_ALLOC", "Company",
"Financial Processes"
End Sub
This code in giving error.Can anyone please suggest the solution and tell me what is the right parameters.I am working in SAP BPC 7.0 M.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Prakash

Hi,
Please find below the example from the BPC Help.
Syntax for this command is MNU_eDATA_SELECTPACKAGE(ackage name>, <package file path>, <teamname>, <package group>)
For only this menu command, the parameters are part of the MacroName so you must leave the Parameter section blank. For example, if you have MNU_eData_SelectPackage(""import"",""examples/import.dts"",""HQ"") in cell A1, FX Restatement in cell A2, your EvMNU function would be: EvMNU(A1,A2,).
Can you please let me know what the error message you received?
Best regards,

IMac vs. MBP Display: Better for Photo Editing?

I have been considering getting a new iMac, and I would like to do photo editing (somewhere in the middle between professional and iPhoto). First I thought 20", but then I learned about the relatively poorer display quality. Then I thought 24", but still had concerns about gradients. Then I waited for the new (Penryn) iMacs, but it sounds like there hasn't been an obvious improvement in iMac display quality.
Would a MacBook Pro be a better bet? Would anyone care to give their opinion of the display pros/cons of using a MBP vs. a current iMac.
Thanks in advance.

Well, they both have their pros and cons IMO. The MBPs usually have more even backlighting but the color representation on the iMac is much better to my eyes.
To be honest, the gradient and yellow tint on the iMac doesn't disturb me much when editing photos (but it does for most other task). The screen is a bit too bright though which can result in you pictures becoming too dark when viewed elsewhere or printed.
If you are serious about photo editing I'd suggest the 15" MBP or perhaps even a Mac Mini (depending on your harware needs) and an external display (there are some fairly cheap ones that are better than both the MBP and iMac displays when it comes to photo editing).

How to set video display parameters for the guest OS?

I don't see display adapter options in the hardware list for a VM. How does the guest OS know what are the display resolutions available?
I have installed Ubuntu 14 on two different PCs, one in Windows 8 Hyper-V and another in VirtualBox. In VirtualBox, it started off with only one resolution: 640x480. After I increased the video RAM from the default 12MB to 32MB, I get to choose
from 800x600 as well as 1024x768.
In my Hyper-V, my Ubuntu has only 1152x864. I need 1024x768. How do I do it?
Thanks.

Hi,
The Ubuntu 14 not supported by Win8 Hyper-V, personal experience is same with Andrew_Grant, you can try to install the last Integrations Services.

Command Line Parameters for Run Application.vi in the LVWUtil

I am trying to use the "Run Application.vi" located in the LVWUtil.llb. I am sending a command line similiar to this:
"C:\WINXP\system32\msiexec.exe" /i "C:\qc data\ZVMS Program Updates\Application Installer\install.msi"
this command line works from the Start>Run dialog but the Run Application.vi only sees the beginning of the line "C:\WINXP\system32\msiexec.exe" so it opens the windows installler but does not go to the install.msi file and run it. Does anyone know the correct command line formats for the Run Application.vi to run the entire command line?
Thanks,
BethV

Hello BethV,
I downloaded the LVWUtil32.zip file from the Windows API Function Utilities (32-bit) for LabVIEW example program. In that zip file, is a library entitled Winevent.lib, which includes the Run Application.vi. When you used this VI, I believe the string you passed in as a input had too many quotation marks. Namely, you do not need quotes around the msiexec.exe call. I passed the following string into the Run Application.vi and got the expected results:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\msiexec.exe /i "C:\mymsi.msi"
Please let me know if it helps.

VMware Fusion or Parallels for running Windows 7 on a portable HD?

So I have a shiny new MBP 13" with the Haswell chip and I'm trying to totally replace my Dell PC laptop in everyday life. I cloned my Dell's HD to a USB 3.0 portable HD and am looking at either VMware Fusion 6 or Parallels Desktop 8 to create a VM to run Win7 off of that portable HD. I only have a 256Gb SSD in my MBP, so I don't want to fill it up with all my Windows stuff.
Here are my two questions:
1 - Is this possible to do?
2 - Based on how I want to use this, does anyone know which VM platform is bes, Fusion 6 or Parallels Desktop 8?
Thanks!

Niether. First try Oracle Virtualbox. It is free and runs all OS as good as the paid for virtual machine software programs.
EDIT:
Sorry I did not at first read your whole post.
You can use any of the 3 virtual machine software programs for running most all versions of Windows on your Mac and they all work quite well. But you can not use a version of Windows that came on your Dell PC on any other computer, whether in a virtual machine or installed directly to the hard drive of that computer (Mac or PC), as that version of Windows is tied to your Dell PC and will only work on a Dell PC. It is illegal to put it on some other computer than the one it came on.
So to run Windows on your Mac, Natively or in a virtual machine, you will need to buy a retail copy, or a System Builders OEM copy, of the version of Windows you want to use.

Display Driver for Win98 (parallels)

Yes, I am crazy enough to try and run Win98 through Parallels on my MacBook. Using Windows XP that way is a blast, so I was curious how my old copy of Windows 98 SE would perform. Can anybody help me locate a '98 screen driver for the MacBook display? The standard configuration after setup only offers 16! colors!
Thanks for your help!

Hello
Like Joao said, the graphic driver for this unit is only available for Xp and W2k.
http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_modItemList.jsp
Well, you can check other Toshiba notebooks which have the same graphic card and try to download this driver.
You can also try to search on the European Toshiba website for the units with the same graphic card.

Hi Lionel,
As a general rule of thumb, the ATI Rage 128 Pro will not support a 20" LCD. That being said, there are reports of it doing just that (possibly the edition that went into the cube).
I'm not that familiar with the ins and outs of the Cube, so I can't give you authoritative information on it.

Difficulty using a projector. I have a MBP 17" and am running 10.6.8. Often I need to make a Powerpoint or other presentation at a client and I want to connect my computer to their projector. Either it won't display on the projector at all. HELP!

Difficulty using a projector. I have a MBP 17" and am running 10.6.8. Often I need to make a Powerpoint or other presentation at a client and I want to connect my computer to their projector. Either it won't display on the projector at all. Once it displayed but the presentation mode was on the big screen and the presentation I wanted to show was on my MBP screen. I have the adapter( white ones) to attached to the projector cables. I am so frsutrated...it looks so silly not to have a computer work during a presentation..
Another problem one the rare occasion that it shows on the screen is that the presentation does show just my desk top. Any ideas?
Thanks !

You often have to turn off Mirroring to be able to set the second "screen"s resolution to something reasonable. When you do, the two screens become an "Exceeded Desktop" joined along one edge, and the Arrange pane in displays prefs can allow you to specify what edge. Initially, it will show a vacant extension of the built-in screen's desktop.
The mouse moves freely across that shared edge, and can allow you to drag the presentation window across to the the projector screen and re-size it to fit.

MBP via HDMI to 24" monitor only runs the monitor not MBP display??

I own a 2008 Macbook Pro 15" from 08.
Have used monitors in the past but none via HDMI.
Recently got an Asus VE247H 24" monitor.
Connectd via DVI or VGA it works with a terrible screen resolution but i can still use my MBP pro display as a second monitor.
When using HDMI the resolution is great at 1080P but i cannot use my MBP display as a second monitor.
When using HDMI to mini display port am i limited to just 1 monitor?

We are running 3 batches parallel(a.ksh,b.ksh,c.ksh parallel ) .if a.ksh will complete then d.ksh will start('d' start when 'a' will terminate successfully) and we have to handle error for all jobs ( if some job got aborted during runtime) ?

Dynamic date parameters for a scheduled report that runs every day

I have a report that has input parameters for a start date and
end date. The report will be scheduled to run once a day at a
scheduled time. I need the report to automatically set the start
date and end dates when the report runs at the scheduled time.
When the report runs at the scheduled time, the end date needs
to be set to that time and the start date needs to be set to 24
hrs before the end date. I want the start and end dates to roll
forward automatically when the scheduled report runs each day. I
don't want any user intervention to change the start and end
dates every day. How can I do this in a report ?
Also, since the report is scheduled to run each day, I want the
output to be saved to a unique file name each time the report is
run as each day's report will report on the data only for that
day. How can I get the report to save to a unique file name
automatically each day ? Again, I don't want any user
intervention where they would set the output file name manually.

Try adding the following in the beforereport or beforepform
trigger, before the RETURN clause (TRUNC gets rid of the time
component of the date):
:p_date_from := TRUNC(sysdate) - 1;
:p_date_to := TRUNC(sysdate);
:desname := 'REPORT'||TO_CHAR(sysdate, 'DDMMYYYY')||'.txt'

How to install display driver for Satellite A running Win XP?

I recently got rid of Vista from my Satellite laptop and had XP installed.
I need to install the display driver (For ATI Radeon Video Card) which I had to download from this site.
How do I install the driver?
When I go to reinstall the driver the system can not find it.
What am I doing wrong or what do I need to run first?
There are so many files I am not sure..I tried running set-up but that did not help.
Thanks

I have Mac OSX Lion 10.7.4, Quickbooks Pro 2010, Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac, Operating in Windows 7. Are there any recommendations for running Quickbooks Pro 2010?

I have Mac OSX Lion 10.7.4, Quickbooks Pro 2010, Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac, Operating in Windows 7. Quicbooks Pro 2010 is not responding or opening currently. Quickbooks does not support Parallels anymore. I hear Apple Bootcamp is an opton. Are there any recommendations for running Quickbooks Pro 2010 on Mac?

QuickBooks Pro 2010 for Mac is not supported in Lion. QB Pro 2011 will work, but I just got an email today that 2011 will not be updated to work in Mountain Lion. QB Pro 2012 will be updated for ML.
Be aware that the Mac version of QuickBooks is shamefully lacking in features compared to the Windows version. I do use the Mac version, but it has more features than I need for a small business, so it doesn't affect me. No one knows why Intuit seems to hate Mac users, but they show it every day.
If QB Pro 2012 for Mac can be downloaded as a demo, I would strongly suggest testing with it before making a final decision. You will be able to import the Windows data, but possibly not all of it, depending on the Windows version features you use.
Boot Camp allows you to install Windows on its own, bootable partition. When you boot to it, you are of course running Windows in every sense of the word. Just on Mac hardware rather than typical PC gear. Your Windows version of QB will work there without issue. The problem is having to boot back and forth between Windows and OS X, depending on what software it is you need to use at the time.
