Migrating to staroffice 8

Hello all,
I have just recently setup a sunray server for the school that i work at.
I have used solaris 10 11/06 and we are using jds for solaris as our chosen environment.
But the install of solaris 10 came with staroffice 7 which is surprising seing as staroffice 8 has been out for ages now.
But i have downloaded staroffice 8 and i want to install it .
I want to remove starofice 7 and simply change all file extensions e.t.c.
Very basic upgrade, no ldap stuff or anything.
I have been reading up on it and no manual seems to give a straight forward solution that is simple enough.
How can i do this?
regards,
jason

Where to find the StarOffice Migration Guide?

According to the help file there exists an StarOffice Migration Guide with more specific information ragarding to conversion of/to MS Office documents.
Couldn't find this document.
Hint's are highly welcome!

Well this one isn't done directly by Sun but is done by a responsible group.

Want to update my StarOffice 9 version but can't get access to update 9.1

Hi,
I bought StarOffice in 2009 and want to update it to version 9.2. This is a public accessable download however I need to first install version 9.1 and strange enough it sends me to a support page where I have to input an Service ID. I'm running around in circles now. I purchased an official product, can update to a public 9.2 version but have to download 9.1 first and that is behind bars. It is driving me nuts. I looked how contact Oracle but can't find anything and are confronted with YES AGAIN a Service ID. The only option is to write a letter to Oracle headquarters to overcome this problem.
Does anybody knows a better solution for my problem than writing a letter ;-).
Kind regards,
Marcel

There is no such information on our CD but we had an account on https://sunsolve.sun.com/ and got updates from it. But now access to this website is redirected to https://support.oracle.com where we need an Customer Support Identifier to get updates.
If you properly migrated your identity to oracle, then you should still be able to access the updates at this site
https://sspatch.oracle.com/showMe.do?page=public
That I did, but I didn't know about this URL. Now we can download patches (but with some difficulties — descriptions of patches are missing).
If you did not create the Oracle account with the same email address as you used for Sun, you will need to contact Oracle to reestablish your identity.
Q: Is there any way to get updates (or get OOO installer) without the mysterious CSI?Updates will require you reestablishing your identity.
For OOO you will need to purchase a new license.
I understood that:
1. "StarOffice 8" owners has possibility of update to "StarOffice 9" without any additional payment.
2. But "StarOffice 8" owners has no possibility of update to OOO without buying it. (from OOO3 Patch readme: +"You may only use this product with an already existing license to StarOffice 9 or Oracle Open Office 3.2.1."+ ).
But my situation is more complicated:
Our software provider sold the "StarOffice 8" to us on 26 ^th^ March 2009 when "StarOffice 9" was existing more than half of year. The fact of the sale is properly committed in our official papers.
Q.: Can my company use OOO taking into account the above information?
OOo gives no any guarantee to properly work comparably with OOO.With the exception of Oracle Cloud Office support, OOo is compatible since that is the code underlying OOO.
PhilThanks for you reply!

StarOffice / Oracle Open Office

Are current SO9 users eligible for Oracle Open Office and it's incremental upgrades or will it be necessary to purchase it?

Saturday, July 10, 2010
Hi Gerhard!
Ok, extensions which are installed for users are installed in the users profile which is found at
c:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Support\OracleOpenOffice\3\
Other extensions are actually installed in the same folder as the program which is
c:\Program Files\Oracle\Oracle Open Office 3\
To debug your system, try renaming with OOO closed (including the quickstarter)
c:\Documents and Settings\User Application Support\OracleOpenOffice\3\
to
c:\Documents and Settings\User Application Support\OracleOpenOffice\3bad\
The start OOO again. If loads and runs without problem, the the problem is in the profile. If the problem still exists, then you need to remove and reinstall OOO. Make sure you rename or delete the old installation because your problem is on the program folder. During the reinstall do not select migrate the SO9 info.
If OOO runs then you can try using the SO9 profile. bootstrap.ini is found in
c:\Program Files\Oracle\Oracle Open Office 3\program
With OOO closed, open it in notepad or another text editor and change
UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/OracleOpenOffice/3
to
UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/StarOffice/9
Then try OOO. If it runs without hitch, then things are great. If the problem reoccurs, then try running SO and remove the extension.

How can I Migrate/Split itunes/icloud account for a large family now that they have family sharing

Ok, now that Apple has finally come out with family sharing I need to get things sorted out and I think it is going to be a mess. I have 6 family members (my spouse and 4 children) all sharing/using one itunes account. For parental reasons this made perfect sense. Now with the the advent of family sharing and such we have alot of sorting and migrating to do and I am very unsure how to go about it. Here is what we have.
Myself - I have a 64GB iPad 3 and a 64GB iPhone 5
Spouse - 64GB iPhone 5
Children - x4 16GB iPhone 5C (pink, blue, green, and a yellow)
We have had one itunes account now for several years, we used to have x4 16GB iphone 4's and a 16GB iPod touch 4 so we needed it to be shared at the time. We all have different Game Center ID's and Facetime/iMessages are all setup to the phone numbers (aside from mine which also uses the itunes e-mail). We currently have 1 upgraded icloud account with 200GB of storage on it (love the new tiers). So here are the questions.
1) How do I go about using and isolating all the devices so they can all use the iCloud storage? Right now if I try and setup backups by device under the what to backup there is no simple "Full Backup" option, they have all the categories separated. I cannot backup my daughters contacts without forcing a merging of them and so on. Same thing with Documents and Data. Would I need to setup a different iCloud account for each device now?
2) iTunes Music/App purchases. Now that they have a family sharing function I am assuming it would be a good time to separate all the devices (aside from my personal iPad/iPhone). If I understand correctly we need to setup a new itunes account for each and link them with family sharing, does this then allow us to disperse/move items from a singular to the multiple account (at least a one time option to move around) or would it simply be shared off the original account? My daughter for example will be 18 next summer and as such no longer under our care. How do we move her items to her account? She has a lot of purchased Music. Now keep in mind I am talking about an account for someone who was 12 when she had her first device and as such needed to be under her parents.
I just want to state that repurchasing things is NOT an option, and to be frank, according to Canadian laws pertaining to *licensing* we actually own the product if we paid for it and have the right to transfer the ownership thereof. This issue went through the courts regarding used copies of OEM editions of Microsoft Windows several years ago and they closed the legal *license* vs ownership separation.

Go to appleid.apple.com to manage the ID, sign in and select to the Name, ID and Email Addresses section, then change the birth date on the bottom right. At the present time you may not be able to enter the correct birth date, but others have had success changing the year to 2000, or the date to 1/1/2001, both of which will have child ID status.

Migrating open POs and GR/IR clearing account balance

Hello gurus,
I've got the following problem concerning migration of open POs:
For example: In my source system there is a PO for 10 pcs. of some material. There has been a goods receipt for 5 pcs. (200$ each).
Now, when I import this order and the corresponding purchase order history into my target system (using LSMW), the target system creates the order, a material document for 5 pcs. and an account document.
But of course, our FI-team also has to migrate the balance of the 'old' GR/IR clearing account.
So, the balance in the source system is <> 0 (e.g. 1000$), because the 5 pcs. have been delivered but there has been no invoice receipt yet.
This balance is imported into the new system and then the open orders are migrated, generating an account document and thus, the balance is 2000$ afterwards.
This obviously is not correct, so I am sure that I am missing something, just what?
Thanks
Alicia

Hi,
1. There will be an open PO uploaded for 5 qty and price 200$ each
2. Opening Balance of Material - 5 qty and corresponding value to Stock A/c - 1000$
3. Also there will be Vendor Balances uploaded in the system as 1000$ against the invoice. (If the invoice is still expected then chec with FI Users if they can get invoice form vendor)
if no then do not upload initial stock entry of step2, create a PO of 10 qty and then do GR in system (SAP).

[Migrating from 6i to 11G] HTML viewer

Hi,
There used to be a program to display the output of a report in 6i. When the report was displayed, it used page breaks (ESC characters) to allow the user to view the next page and print a range of pages from a report.
In 11G, these control characters are not interpreted by Internet Explorer:
>
height 85
width 94
before report esc "&l%%0O" esc "&l8D" esc "(s12H"
after report esc "E"
after page control(L)
[End Quote]
So how could I migrate the printer definition files in order to get after page control in 11G?
Many thanks for your help.

As my old college profession used to say - "The only stupid question is the one that doesn't get asked!" Forms 11g only supports web deployment. This means you will need the OAS with the Forms and Reports Services installed as well. Typically, the setup is three tiered ( 1 server = Database, 1 server = Application Server, 1 server = Infrastructure server ). You don't have to set up the technology stack multitiered - all three could reside on the same server or you could have the all three on the same machine but is not recommended. I would at least have the database on a server seperate from OAS.
Here are a few links to get you started.
Oracle Documentation
* Check out: Development Tools - Oracle Forms, Middleware - Applications Server - Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g and Middleware - Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence - Oracle Reports
Since you will be upgrading from Forms 6i to 11g, be sure to visit the Oracle Forms-Upgrading Forms 6i to Forms 11g documentation.
BTW, welcome to the forums!

Transferring files from one User Account to another

TS3981 After migration files are now shared between two user accounts. How can I combine them into one account?

After migration, from PC, files are now shared between two user accounts.I have to switch users to access files. How can I combine them into one account?

Duplicate user account OR migrate iPhoto/iWeb between users

I've seen this question asked several times before, but have not seen an answer!
So, with as many details as I can muster:
I have, on my computer, 4 user accounts: my admin account, my user account, my boyfriend's user account, and our business account... All separate, keeps things nice and tidy (sort of!).
I have a new and separate project that I'm starting to work on which involves lots of images, and new websites, and new and different stuff that's necessary for the project, but just clutter in any of the other accounts.
Because this project started out as something my man wanted to play around with, all of the beginnings of this are in his iPhoto and his iWeb, and they're well organized. I've not had luck so far moving the iPhoto and iWeb libraries to a new/blank user and maintaining the organization that I've spent time and attention making right.
He's not so great with technology, and gets very frustrated (and unproductive!) when anything on the computer doesn't work exactly like he expects it to. (When Lion came out and the scrolling went "the wrong direction" he was afraid to use the computer at all for a week, because "everything changed, I don't even know how to use it anymore" that's between us though, personal issure ). So I'd like to keep the user experience the same for him. I'd like to duplicate his settings, preferences, etc. into a new user for him, and take over his current account to isolate this project.
So, in summary:
I want to create a new account with the same user experience as a current account without having to find and reset all of his settings.
OR
I want an exact copy of the iPhoto and iWeb from this user account to another one, on the same machine.
I am currently running OSX 10.7.2, iPhoto '11 9.2.1 and iWeb 3.0.4
Thanks in advance for any help!

That's easy, if you have Time Machine or "bootable clone" backups. (If you don't, you should anyway. Post back if you need info on them.)
Use Migration Assistant to transfer just that user account from the backups; it will put up a screen saying it can't transfer it under the same name as the existing account, and allowing you to rename it.
Other than having a different name, the transferred account will be identical to the existing one. Then you can modifiy them separately as necessary.
EDIT: see Using Migration Assistant on Lion for detailed instructions. Be sure to un-check the boxes for eveything except that one user account.

After migrating data from Time Machine, some of my photos are not showing up in iPhoto. I get a 'dashed rectangle." When I click on it I get ' ! in a Triangle" When I click on that, I actually can see the photo. I want to see my photos

After migrating data from Time Machine, some of my photos are not showing up in iPhoto LIbrary view. I get a 'dashed rectangle." When I click on it I get ' ! in a Triangle" When I click on that, I actually can see the photo. I want to see all my photos in 'Library' view, and I can't figure out how these photos seem to be arbitrarily hidden. Help, please.

Try these for the first attempt:
First be sure to have a backup copy of the library if you already don't have one.

How do I find a photo file in the Finder + future migration question

Being a recent Mac convert, I am just getting used to the 'complete control' approach to photo management that iPhoto has. I'm used to knowing where my photos physically reside on my computer - this is useful for doing things like uploading photos to a website for example. How do I actually find a particular photo in the Finder (or even give photo files recognisable names, as opposed to whatever automated naming system iPhoto uses)?
A followup question to this is, what happens if I ever want to migrate my photos out of iPhoto one day to another application or even back to a PC (God forbid - just my paranoia about being forced to use a particular system forever kicking in here!) - is there a way to do this, and keep photo modifications etc? Or once I start using iPhoto, have I made my decision for life??
My apologies if this has been asked before, I couldn't find anything in the forum when searching.

poddster
I hope you've a notebook and pen, but you've asked a lot of questions:
I'm used to knowing where my photos physically reside on my computer
You photos are stored in the iPhoto Library at your Pictures Folder. This is a Unix style Package Folder that very easy to see inside: right click on it and choose show package contents. A finder window opens with the library exposed.
Here's how the library is laid out:
In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
iPhoto always preserves the original file, all operations are carried out on a copy.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
And here's a warning: It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
this is useful for doing things like uploading photos to a website for example
No it's not. Don't surf the iPhoto Library. The idea with iPhoto is that you do everything via the iPhoto Window or media browsers:
So, to access pics use one (or more) of the following:
There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser. Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
iPhot doesn't name the files, those names are given by your camera. You can add titles in iPhoto and if you use the File -> Export command there's a facility there to name the resulting file (it'll be a copy - remember what I said about all operation being done on a copy...) with the title.
Do not rename files in iPhoto, That comes under the heading of making changes in the iPhoto Library Folder and alters the path to the files. If you do, iPhoto will lose track of the file. But the truth is there's simply no need to. However, you can rename the files before importing them if you like.
Migrating is really easy. You've seen the layout of the Library above. The originals are all there, in the originals folder, the Modified versions in their folder. If you want to have only the most recent versions of pics, then export them from iPhoto to a folder on the desktop.
By all means post back if you need more.
Regards
TD
