Migration from PC-Mac not working

Any suggestions on how to transfer files from a Windows 7 PC (HP pavilion dv5) to my new Macbook Pro?. I downloaded Migration assistant on my PC and it starts transferring data then after about 20-30 minutes it just crashes on the PC saying 'migraton assistant stopped working' its happened 4 times now. Are there any other, faster ways to transfer everything from my PC to my Mac?

How are you connecting the two computers? If you're using an ethernet connection, the fastest and simplest way would be just to connect to your PC via your Mac in the Finder and copy/paste the files over. Another option would be to use an external harddrive if you have one by copying your files from your PC to the harddrive, then from the harddrive to your Mac. I've always preferred the ethernet connection, however, as it is the simplest.

Custom report migrated from 11i r12 not working

Hi,
I've a custom report developed in reports 6i in 11i env.If you run this report in 11i it's displaying data no errors. It has been migrated to R12.I tried to test this report.It's not displaying any data or errors.Is there any environment or intialization setup I need to take care of before testing this?
Thanks,
Kiran.

Wireless printing from main Mac not working

I've read through a few threads about wireless printing issues via the TC but I have a twist. My second Mac (Macbook 10.4.11) is able to print wirelessly through TC without a problem. I've selected the appropriate printer via System Preferences>>printers and selected "Share this printer".
My main Mac (MacBook Pro 10.5.3) which is being backed up on the TC, is not able to print wirelessly. I've also correctly selected the printer and clicked on "share this printer". The printer is an HP2410xi connected to the TC via USB.
The print jobs appear in the print queue and the printer status is "ready". When I select the stalled print job and select Resume I get the message "Opening printer connection" but nothing happens.
Thoughts?

If the printer worked on 10.5 when it was plugged directly into the macbook shouldn't the same driver also work when the printer is plugged into the time machine. I've unclicked printer sharing on both macs and it still doesn't work. I see that HP does not have an updated driver for 10.5 so I guess that I'll just plug the printer back into the macbook's USB. Grrrr.

.mov file saved from other Mac not working on new Macbook

My old Macbook Pro started acting funny so I saved all my pictures and videos to USB drives. My new Macbook (OSX 10.5.8) with QuickTime (version 7.6.4) will not open the .mov files. Per another similar thread it was suggested to enable the "Show legacy encoders" under QuickTime Advanced Preferences, but it still won't work. QuickTime opens and plays the file but there is no sound or picture? Any suggestions?

Not sure what you mean here. Did you use the "Save As..." option to save the files as "Reference" movies to the USB drive? If so, they can't open because the "Standalone" reference file is not available on the mew system for playback.
QuickTime opens and plays the file but there is no sound or picture?
Confused here. Which is it? "QuickTime (version 7.6.4) will not open the .mov files" or "QuickTime opens and plays the file but there is no sound or picture?"
Codecs: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, DV, Tween, Integer (Big Endian)
What QT application are your referring to here? A "Tween" track is not usual for captured DV/AIFF content and would probably cause problems with an application like iMovie '08/'09 which don't like all possible MOV container track types.
That's unusual, there is no Format information available. Just 1)source, 2)data size, 3)data range, 4)current time, and 5)duration.
Sounds like corruption in the file, the QT embedded structure or the QT player. If the "small" files (like MPeG4/AAC) play okay, and only large ones (like DV/AIFF) have problems, then you may wish to check the USB drive format for file size limitations, data integrety, and/or other problems.

HT4889 Can I choose what to migrate from one mac to another mac?

Can I choose what to migrate from one mac (Powrebook G4) to another mac (New iMac)? I do not want everything to be migrated, as some programs are not compatible with Mountain Lion or an intelIntel mac!
As it is a brand New iMac I would also like to keep it clean of unnecessary files that have become imbedded in the Powerbook over its time.Therfore it would be nice if I can pick and choose what is to be transferd. If you can give me a heads up on if and how it would be appreciated!!!
Thanks
PicMac

Thanks for your input!… I have now come across an Article from Apple
Migration Assistant tips and tricks
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3231?viewlocale=en_US
Controlling what is migrated
With Migration Assistant you control the data that is migrated from another Macintosh computer. By clicking the triangle next to a user's name, you can select which User Accounts to migrate and choose which folders to migrate. You can also choose whether to migrate Applications, Network and Computer settings, or Volumes. Migrating only what you need can reduce the time it takes to complete your migration.

Find My Mac not working for a non-admin account

I would appreciate some advice, or comment, on what I perceive is "Find my Mac" not working.
I use a Mac Mini (late 2009) to run my home media; it on 7/24, connected to a drobo drive and is running the latest Mac OX X Lion. I did a complete erase and install of the OS, and the recovery partition IS there.
I use an auto-login account, but with no administrative privileges. There is no monitor, keyboard or mouse connected to it, but in case it gets stolen, I want to find it.
When I log in with an admin account, I can turn on Find My Mac, under icloud prefs. When I relog into the normal user account, this preference is greyed out, and says "Needs administrative authorization".
So, is Find my Mac running, cause I turned it on with an admin account, or not?
If no, how do I make sure it is always running?
thanks

These are the notes of the steps I took which finally got my MBP to appear in FMM:
I clicked on the MBP remove device-> I took the MBP Wi-Fi off line-> I went to iCloud Pref's, unchecked find my Mac-> turned Wi-Fi back on-> went to iCloud pref's re-checked 'Find my Mac'-> went online to iCloud.com, selected the MBP, which had found it's location. I sent a message and sound to the MBP from the Mac mini, which instantly came up on the MBP.
SO, eventually my MBP 'Find my Mac' is working.

Skype 6.3 upgrade for Mac not working

[Topic title updated by moderator to be more descriptive. Original topic title was: "Skype upgrade for Mac not working"]
BE WARNED - just because you are being asked to upgrade your Skype, it does not mean it will work on your machine. I am a fairly regular user of Skype and this morning was unable to log-in, being told that I needed to upgrade. I did so to 6.3.0.602 but I was unable to log-in once the software had downloaded. After some research on the forums and finally a text chat with Support, I was told that Skype 6.3.0.602 requires a Mac OSX of 10.9 or above - I have 10.5.8
"So what can I do", I asked the tech support. The answer is nothing (unless I get new OS X software) - there is no Skype software programme that supports my operating system and no timeframe for when it might be available.
Huh? That's right. It's just not available. So for now, users with less than OS X 10.9 will be unable to use Skype when they are instructed to upgrade. It really doesn't make sense. But just so you know....

Please look at the top of the community page, and you will find a box "Search:". Write your problem here "Upgrade not working" and see what crops up. Most likely you will be taken somewher like here: http://community.skype.com/t5/Mac/quot-We-ve-signed-you-out-because-your-using-an-outdated-version/m...
Here you will read that the latest versions of Skype will not work on some of the versions of MacOS, and that PPC requires one version, Leopard another, Snow leopard another, Mountain Lion another. They are indoctrinated with a stamp in their forehead to enforce their congregation of true believers to install the latest with all "security fixes" or death is looming. They are not used to software that is 2 years old.
So, with Mac, we have different operating systems and different sets of libraries - and things may go belly up if you upgrade - a OS feature is done differently, a libary has been placed inside the OS, and is no longer needed - and if you try to use it, you will be trapped.
Install the latest version that works for your Mac, and make sure to freeze this. Update the "info.plist" file and tell Skype that you use their latest should they pry. As long as it works, do not change anything!
And make the change to stop Skype from checking every time you start.

Consuming PI Webservice from Webdynpro Java Not working

Hello SAP,
Environment: CE 7.2.
Resolution expected immediately, Helpful answer is highly appreciated.
Is the namespace should not exceed 60char for PI Webservice, for executing the webservice from Webdynpro Java.
I tried with all the options in executing the PI Service from Webdynpro Java, None of the options worked. I am facing the below error while I was calling the PI Webservice.
I don't see any problem from Webdynpro Java, what ever the procedure I have followed is the standard procedure.
Fortunately when I execute the service from Webservice Navigator, it is working as expected. The same webservice when I consume it from Webdynpro Java it is not working
Options tried so far:
1) Published the Services to Service Registry and there by consuming the PI Service from Service Registry - Not worked
2) Tweaked the URL with few options - Not worked (Tweaking the URL, ex: portType, Binding)
3) Changing the Business Systems in PI and there after calling the service - Not worked
4) Initializing the code, instead of creating Service Controller and calling the PI Service - Not worked.
5) Created a Provider System and tried to call the PI Webservice from Provider System - Not Worked
For all the Options, I am facing the same error which is provided in the screenshot.
Below procedure which I have followed for calling the PI Webservice:
1) Created Adaptive Webservice Model
2) Provided PI Webservice URL (It prompts for PI System UserId and Password)
3) Selected Option - No Service Group Configuration
4) Provided Logical Destination
6) Completed creation of Model
7) Added the model as a UsedModel
8) Right Click on Comp Contr. and selected Apply Template and Created a ServiceController for the model (Entire mapping to comp contr, Initializing the nodes is taken care by Service Contr.)
9) Created an Template Action button and there by calling execute method which is auto rendered from CompContr..
10) Build the project.
11) Activated the code and Run the Application.
12) Getting the below error which is showed in the message.
ERROR MESSAGE:
Exception on execution of web service on destination 'GetPIHRPeopleData' for operation 'SI_CreateHRPeopleData_OS' in interface 'SI_CreatePeopleCompany_OS'

Hi Sankar,
If the webservice is working fine in the Wsnavigator then there is some problem with importing the webservice in webdynpro for Java. Please check the required parameter for creating the Adaptive Webservice Model. After adding in the used model and compoent controller binding, you need to write code for to execute the webservice model.
Please check the code for initialization and execution for the webservice and then test it.
Best Regards,
Arun Jaiswal

How do I control my mac from another mac not in the same network?

How do I control my mac from another mac not in the same network? Thanks

You can do it manually, but it is much simpler if you use a tool such as Back To My Mac, LogMeIn, or something like that. Those programs enable you to connect to your computer through your router without you having to adjust the router settings manually.

When I unplug Apple headphones from my MacBook Pro sond from internal speakers not work, and system soud preferences displayed: Output: optical digital out port only

When I unplug Apple headphones from my MacBook Pro sond from internal speakers not work, and system soud preferences displayed: Output: optical digital out port only

If you see a red light in the audio output port, then the internal switch is stuck. Insert the earphone plug a few times and see if you can trip the switch. If that fails, insert a cocktail stirrer and the like and jiggle it around inside. If that fails, take it to an Apple store and have the technicians at the genius bar do it for you.
Ciao.

Get-MailboxSentItemsConfiguration Set-MailboxSentItemsConfiguration From Only (still) not working

Hello,
I would like to ask a question, hopeing it is resolved in some way and i missed it.
I have installed SP3 Rollup 4 on our Exchange 2010 server.
This added 2 new Powershell commands
Get-MailboxSentItemsConfiguration
Set-MailboxSentItemsConfiguration
This can be used to manipulate where mail is stored in the send items.
Sender - e-mails sent using SendAs or Send-on-Behalf-of permissions are saved only in the Sent Items folder of the Sender (UserA);
SenderAndFrom – e-mails sent using SendAs or Send-on-Behalf-of permissions are saved in the Sent Items folder of the Sender and the mailbox on which the permissions are assigned (in our example, both UserA and UserB);
From – e-mails sent using SendAs or Send-on-Behalf-of permissions are saved in the Sent Items folder of only the mailbox on which the permissions are assigned (in our example, UserB)
What we really want it to use the From only way.
We use a shared team mailbox and use that as primary, as a second mailbox users get a trusted non shared mailbox. Mail sent from the trusted mailbox should only be in the send items from the actual sender, not both.
2 sites report that the From field is reserved for Future Use, or bugged and does not work is intened.
Here is is stated on 1 July 2013
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj884078(v=exchg.141).aspx
From Reserved for future use. To save the messages sent as this mailbox in the Sent Items folder of this mailbox, use SenderAndFrom value.
That was on 26 March 2013
http://www.msexchange.org/kbase/ExchangeServerTips/ExchangeServer2010/OutlookOWA/sent-items-behavior-shared-mailboxes-update.html
NOTE 1: the From value does not work as expected... It basically performs the same action as the SenderAndFromvalue, meaning it saves the e-mail in both mailboxes. This is still the case in Rollup 5 v2.
We are on 3 March 2014 now, is this still bugged, did i miss something, or is there an ETA when this will be fixed ?
Looking foward to any replies.
Kind regards,
Jeroen van Velzen

I am using a shared mailbox (with a disabled account) where I get sent items and also deleted items placed in the right folders.
I think it’s just a matter of how you configure Outlook. It works well for me in both Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013, cached mode and also online mode. You can add a shared mailbox to your Outlook profile in at least two ways where one of them doesn’t work
but the other does.
If you add the shared mailbox via the File tab/Account settings/New/ and just enter the e-mail address of the shared mailbox in the Auto Account Setup page. No name, no password, just the e-mail address and click Next and voila “Your e-mail account is successfully
configured”. After restarting Outlook you will find the shared mailbox below your own in the left pane.
If you click the inbox ones in the shared mailbox and then open a new mail you will see the shared mailbox display name in the From field. After sending the mail you will see the mail in the Sent Items folder of the shared mailbox. If you delete a mail in
the shared mailbox you will see it in Deleted items folder of the shared mailbox.
The prerequisits for this is that you have “full access” and “send as” rights of the shared mailbox.
This was accomplished without using the Set-MailboxSentItemsConfiguration command.
We are running Exchange 2010 SP3 RU4.
