Multi-CD installation work around
Hi developers,
you can copy the part of the HP-UX release notes 819-8007 about the multi-CD installation issue, in the release notes for JES 05Q4 Solaris Sparc.
I have the same problems with my N95 (not 8gb) and Pioneer AVIC-X3 (CD-BTB200). I don´t know wath we can do!!!!

In OBIEE mobile apps designer there is no option for multi select prompts?The navigation page gives option only for single select?Is there a work around for this?
Nic, for me the iTunes window looks like this, when I connect my iPad 3:
I select the iPad in the "devices" section of the Sidebar (use: "View > Show Sidebar" if the sidebar is hidden).
Click the "Apps" tab in the "Devices" pane.
Scroll all the way down in the Devices pane to "File Sharing" "Apps" section.
Then do I click "GarageBand" to select the documents in the right panel.
Which part is different for you? Perhaps you could post a screenshot?

I am running Lion (OS X 10.7.4) and trying to reinstall iLife06, a .mpkg file, using Installer.app. I get a message "You can't open the application iLife06.mpkg because PowerPC apps are no longer supported." Is there a work around?? Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
The only workaround would be to purchase the current version of iLife apps from the App Store.
Lion doesn't support the old PowerPC architecture anymore, which is what iLife '06 was written for.
If the internal apps are universal, right-click on the mpkg and choose Show Contents. Then, dig through and run the specific installer package for each application. -
Insane XML Import, Huge Project, Duplicate file names work around...
I planned on kicking off my journey attempting to edit a massive multi year documentary on FCPX with a nice introduction of the blog I'm going to keep about the experience, but I've run into a bit of a roadblock, or maybe major speed bump at least before even getting to that point. I wanted to share what is working as a work around for me and you guys can tell me how I'm doing it wrong.
Ok, I will try to explain this as succinctly as possible. I'll write in somewhat stream of consciousness just to try and get through it quicker... Basically, after discovering the work around below, I am now utterly confused on how FCPX handles the relationship between its own database of where media is stored, and the actual media itself. I have plenty experience on FCPX now, probably done 30-40 pro commercial jobs on it over the last year since XML became doable as I'm also a Resolve Colorist and all the FCPX projects where hardcore coloring product spots. For commercial work, I never needed to worry about splitting up footage up over multiple Events. Everything, all in one, FCPX handled it no problem. (well the occasional beach ball, but that seems to be a thing with FCPX in general)
This will be my 10th feature documentary as an Editor. Every one before it was either on Avid's many flavors over the last 12 years or FCP Studio. When this new film came along, I made the decision a few months ago to use FCPX for a few reasons, but mostly because I'm insane and I like to try to mix it up for myself in a career that can get stale quick if you aren't willing to be that way. The film was shot over 2+ years, every shoot was multi cam 5D (yes i know, looks great, but please kill me), I haven't done the math on length, but there is over 10,000 clips of video (this is actually medium in size compared to what I've dealt with before). Its 5D, so theres external audio for everything. FCPX's syncing is great, but I've learned that theres an unsaid window of heads and tales clips must fall within to sync properly with the nearby clips, if they are too far apart FCPX gives up. One shoot day could have 3 cams, 50 clips each, and 2 audio files to sync to, FCPX simply cannot handle this, so off to Plural eyes they went, no problems.
Ok, all this is relevant eventually I swear! Again, in the past, all in one event, no problem. I tried for fun to bring all media into one Event on this film. It worked, but there is a 10+ second spinning beach ball for every single move you make, so thats no good. Ok, I'll separate the Events out to, lets say, each shoot month. Well that's dumb, in verite documentary, any shot could be the first, any shot could be the last, you need a command over all searchable footage at all times. Shift selecting all events to search *****, and it actually takes longer for FCP to reload each event each time than it does to just have the one massive one. So no go there. Next hair brained idea... What if make a new Event that is just Compound Clips of all the other Event's contents and do more with Markers and Favorites in logging that I was planning to parse it all out. That way I'm working with and FCPX is dealing with 50-60 clips instead of 10,000+ Quick test, Cmd-A, Opt-G, boom, boom, boom, move all to dedicated to Event, hide huge Event, BEHOLD, that works! FCPX chokes a little bit on the insane length of some of the clips, but searching, and general performance is back on par!
So your saying to yourself "Ok *********, sounds like you figured it out, what's the problem." Well to you I say, "Not so fast!" Remember, that was just a quick test using the media I had imported into the massive 10,000+ clip Event. To do this project proper, I am having to import Multicam sync'd XMLs from Plural Eyes. And this is where it all starts to fall apart. A little foreshadowing for your eager eyes. 10,000+ files all shot with multiple 5D's over the course of years. What does that mean? many, many duplicate file names!
FCPX as well all know irritatingly imports XML's as new Events, not into existing ones. This obviously takes a lot of burden off media management because with a new Event comes a new database referencing its own version of the raw media. All well and good, and I'm betting its starting to click for some if you advanced users where I'm finally going with this. So I have 50 or so XMLs to bring in, all done no problem. Now I want to replicate that singular Event like I did with the Compound Clip test and have it all in one place to be my master as extensive logging begins for easy searching once editing begins. Highlight the Events, click Merge Events. NOPE. I get a new "Kill Yourself Now" error (a term I coined for Out of Memory and General Error messages in FCP Legacy meaning there ain't much you can do about it): "Two or more files have the same name. Change the names and try again, because I don't know what the **** to do with them." Ok I made up that last part but that's basically what it's saying. Just take the variable out of the equation, this happens with every which way you could try to get the clips together. Merge Events, dragging events on top of each other, dragging just the Multicam clip alone, nothing gets passed that message. What's worse is that while Batch Renaming seems like a solution, the renames do not populate inside the created clips and there is no way to Batch Rename those. Renaming everything at the finder level isn't so great because then I'd have to resync and theres an offline/online thing going here where the film has to be reconformed eventually.
Basically, I've found that FCPX handles media management in completely different ways depending on whether you are importing into one Event yourself or doing essentially what is a new import with FCPX moving or merging Events. If you bring in all the media to one Event, on a macro level FCPX goes through file by file making aliases referencing the master file. If it hits a duplicate, it makes a parenthesis counter, and keeps going. And with the genius of FCPX metadata, that file name doesn't even matter, you can change it at the Finder level and FCPX will keep the link intact. BUT for some reason if you try to do this outside the realm of a single Event and combine files after the fact a different process takes over in creating this database system and can't handle the duplicates. I can't totally figure the reason other than it probably is scared to change the originally referenced alias to something else (which it shouldn't be scared of since Merge Events deletes the original anyway).
This is where it gets INSANE and where I lose all understanding of what is going on, and believe me it was a delicate understanding to begin with. It comes in to play with the work around I figured out. I make the master Event with the 10,000+ clips. Then I import all the XMLs as dedicated Events. Now, I then drag the Multicam clips into the master Event, it WORKS! just takes it, no "Kill Yourself Now" error. Stranger still, now with the switched referenced Event, it even takes into account which aliased duplicate file name it's referencing in the Original Media folder. Somehow, it's taking into account the original file path and saying "Ok, I see 5 instances of MVI_5834.mov. Based on the original file path or maybe creation date or god knows what, it must be MVI_5834 (fcp3).mov." It connects perfectly. I can even remove the old XML imported Event with no problem. Crazier yet, I can now move those again to the dedicated Event I wanted originally that only contains those Multicam or Compound Clips.
So instead of going straight from A to C, going from A to B to C works even though that actually seems way more complicated. Why can't FCPX handle Merge Events and dragging clips the same way it handles media imported into a single Event. And weirder still, why can't FCPX handle the (fcp1,2,3...) appending in the same scenario. But if the appended links are already there, No Problem. And for the love of god, it'd be nice to important XML's into existing Events and make the correct referencing happen right from the get go, which is really the source of all the above headache. I'd have no problem helping FCPX with a little manual pointing in the right direction just like any other NLE needs.
Ok, having said all of that crap above, my question is, have I missed something completely simple I should have done instead? Now that I have everything in place how I originally envisioned, I think I will still play around a little bit more to make sure FCPX is really going to be able to handle this project. I'm at a stage right now where going another direction is still an option, although the dare devil in me wants to make this work. Media management aside, once you start editing on a FCPX timeline, its hard to go back to anything else. Apple is going to have to figure out some way not to access to everything at all times to work fluidly or big projects like this are never going to be practical in FCPX.
Sorry for the long confusing post....I'm having the exact same problem, but I know nothing of ruby scripts. I've exhausted my resources with tech support, and after literally hours of work with them it seems I now am faced with either re-rating each individual song, or pointing iTunes to each song that it can't locate. Is yours a solution that could help me? How can I find out more about Ruby Scripts? Thanks for your help, hellolylo (or anyone else who might also be able to help...)

10.4.9 Printing Work-Around Fix - 10 Steps
VonB has already listed a fix in this thread.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4234084�
Unfortunately the links he provided there are for a paid site, and if you don't have a membership you're outta luck. I've taken his info, used it and written what I think are clear instructions to help you be able to print in 10.4.9 until Apple releases an update patch. Special thanks to Vonb for pointing me in the right direction.
Hope this helps...

10.4.9 Printing Work-Around Fix - 10 Steps
Problem - Many programs will not print in OSX 10.4.9.
What This Fix Does - Allows you to print in TEXT EDIT. You can then save MS Word files as Text Edit files and print them. Hopefully a fix will soon be released by Apple for OS 10.4.9 or MS for office 2004.
What This Fix Does Not Do - It won't allow you to print in MS Word if you currently can't, and it won't allow Appleworks to work if it currently doesn't.
Difficulty - easy to moderate. Can you paint by numbers or do you tend to draw outside the lines? If you follow the directions closely you'll be ok.
Disclaimer - I typed this fix out for myself and have applied it to my 5 personal macs and 4 at work. It hasn't crashed any of them, but I don't want you to get ****** off at me if it does... so if you screw your mac up by doing this don't say I didn't warn you. This fix isn't for newbies.
Time to complete - about 1/2 an hour.
Special Instructions -
A. You'll need to be logged in as the administrator of the computer you're working on. I've written this help missive in real plain language. If it seems like I'm speaking down to you I'm not, I'm just trying to make sure you don't screw it up and send me nasty emails.
B. Check to see if TEXT EDIT already prints for you, if it does then skip to #10. (TEXT EDIT can be found in your APPLICATIONS FOLDER on your Macintosh HD.)
OK... here we go, THE TEN STEPS! (cue dramatic music)
1. Delete all of your printers in the PRINT & FAX set up in SYETEM PREFERENCES by following this path - BLUE APPLE / SYSTEM PREFERENCES / PRINT & FAX. If the plus and minus button on the bottom left of the dialog window that appears is grey'd out, you need to CLICK ON THE LOCK and UNLOCK it. You'll need the administrator password to do this. Once the lock is unlocked, click on each printer listed there and then click the minus button. Repeat the process until all printers in the print & fax dialog are deleted.
2. Download two programs from the net. (REMEMBER where you download these files on your computer.)
A. Download a program called CUPS from this site. http://www.cups.org/software.php?VERSION=1.3svn-r6326&FILE=cups/1.2.8/cups-1.2.8 .dmg
CUPS is a unix program that Apple uses within Mac OSX to print. Download version 1.2.8 only. When you get to the site, you will have FTP and HTTP buttons to select where to download from. If you're already in a browser, click on one of the HTTP sites. That way you don't have to open an ftp program.
B. Download and install a program called PRINTER SETUP REPAIR (VERSION 5.0.5) from this site. http://www.fixamacsoftware.com/software/index.html
PRINTER SETUP REPAIR is a shareware program we'll use to fix some issues... if this works I suggest you go back to this site and be a good net citizen and purchase the software. If it doesn't then don't buy it.
3. Install CUPS by clicking on the CUPS.DMG file twice. This will open the DMG file on the desktop as a hard disk image. Open the CUPS HD image and click on the CUPS.pkg twice to install the program. Follow the instructions to the end. After installation click close button.
4. Open psr505te.dmg by clicking on it twice. (it might be called psr505TE.dmg.zip. if it is, click on the psr505TE.dmg.zip file twice to open it, then click on the psr505TE.dmg file twice to open it.) Once the psr505TE.dmg is open, open the PRINTER SETUP REPAIR HD on your desktop. Inside is a program by the same name. Open it by clicking on it twice.
5. Click the "TRY IT" button, type in your admin password, and click the CONTINUE button
6. On the left side of the Printer Setup Repair dialogue window, click CUPS TOOLS icon. in the middle of the dialogue box, if the screen reads " cupsd is running" click the STOP button located just to the left.
7. On the lower right hand side of the Printer Setup Repair dialogue window, under the words "replace current cupsd.conf file with", SELECT "new cupsd.conf file". Then click GO. Then click CONTINUE in the next dialog box that appears.
8. On the left side of the Printer Setup Repair dialogue window, click on the FILE PERMISSIONS ICON. Make sure that all of the boxes in the middle of the Printer Setup Repair dialogue window are checked except for OMIT LOCALIZED FILES and both of the FOR ALL USERS boxes. At the top of the screen in the middle click on the PRINTER ICON THAT HAS A QUESTION MARK on it. In the window that pops up click CONTINUE. This will run VERIFY AND REPAIR PERMISSIONS from inside the Printer's Setup Repair Program. (I know, there is a repair permissions in the Disk Utility Program already on the mac, it doesn't do something that this program does. I don't know what it does, but this works and Disk Utility doesn't.)
9. Run it AGAIN! (the second time does the trick for some reason. just once didn't do it on three out of 5 macs that I used this work around on). This should allow you to print in TEXT EDIT.
10. If you are using Microsoft Word and you want to print something, you need to SAVE AS a text only file (File menu / Save As / Format - Text Only) and print by opening the document in TEXT EDIT and printing from that application. So far this fix has worked on 1 intel iMac, 1 lamp stand iMac, an eMac, a Macbook and an iBook. (Funny enough, my G4 sawtooth Mac running 10.4.9 works fine and prints from MS word without a hitch.)
If this fix works for you, i encourage you to go back to printer's setup repair's website (http://www.fixamacsoftware.com/software/index.html) and purchase their software.Use the install disk that shipped with your Mac to "Repair Disk"
Steps for using Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.) Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair.
If you repair errors run it until no errors found.
Let us know.

Two work-arounds for Siena when working with large files
MonaTech pointed out that Project Siena will crash when switching to the desktop or another app. I've also noticed this happening even when the monitor goes to sleep with inactivity. To be clear, this is *developing* in Siena, not after the app
you're working on has been compiled and installed.
The 'non-technical' work-around that has been successful for me is to split the screen before I switch to another app. It's not perfect but at least I can switch to another app (browser, desktop app, etc.) without losing where I'm at.
A more technical work-around is proposed in this thread:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/c768be8f-3c85-444e-bb44-6f29abdecee7/project-siena-app-memory-issues-with-large-project-?forum=projectsiena
If you have a version of Visual Studio (that's not Express) it may do the trick for you.
FYI - In the post you'll see that Olivier responded and indicates that this is a known issue.
ThorWow - that's what you get for multi-tasking! :)

Work around for spry:repeat="ds1 ds2" limitation
I need to have both data sets repeat when using a Spry repeating region:
<div id="apDiv4" spry:region="ds1 ds2">
<table class="sprytable" border="1">
<tr>
<th spry:sort="Q#">Q#</th>
<th spry:sort="Category">Category</th>
<th spry:sort="Question">Question</th>
<th spry:sort="You">You</th>
</tr>
<tr spry:repeat="ds1 ds2">
<td>{ds1::Q#}</td>
<td>{ds1::Category}</td>
<td>{ds1::Question}</td>
<td>{ds2::You}</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
If I use ds1 in the spry:repeat, ds1 data will repeat (but ds2 will use the first value); or if I specify ds2, ds1 will use the first value.
I need them both to repeat.
I have spent so much time in forums, etc. and can't seem to find a workaround.
My only work around is to combine ds1 and ds2 and reload them together from the server - yuk!
ds1 is fixed and large. ds2 is small and dynamic so reloading really sucks.
Following are the ds Vars - probably irrelevent:
var ds1 = new Spry.Data.HTMLDataSet(null, "rsfamily", {sortOnLoad: "Q#", sortOrderOnLoad: "ascending" }); ds1.setColumnType("Q#", "number"); var ds2 = new Spry.Data.HTMLDataSet("youranswersIRtab.php", "youranswerstab", {}); I will worship the person who gives me an idea.
ThanksThanks V1, timkho and coolsanwa for your thoughts. Since you've been so patient (and understanding) let me briefly tell you what I'm trying to do.
I'm considered good at multi-dimensional databases and have recently fallen in love with DreamWeaver to build a pretty complex site so I don't have to be a real expert at PHP, Spry, Ajax, JavaScript, DOM, HTML, CSS etc (I suck, but most everything is working).
I wish I could point you to a site but I need to keep it secret for a bit - its strictly on my PC for now.
Let me explain the snippit, which I still don't have working .
ds1 has three columns and ds2 has one.
ds1 ds1 ds1 ds2 ds3
Q# Category Question You Compare1
1 Boats How big? 24 36
2 Boats What color? Blue Red
3 House Number rooms? 3 6
4 House Sq feet? 1000 3000
5 House Have garage? No Yes
etc to 200+
ds1 doesn't change and I don't want to reload it
ds2 are your saved answers (I will have a form to fill in and a Submit- different subject)
ds3 is user selected comparisons, retrieved from a MD database (academic because ds2 has me stopped).
Category has table row classes (to whole row), which will drive Tabbed Panels.
ds1, ds2, ds3 data have the class assigned to each row (setRowSelector) classes for columns(setColumnSelector).
I want a Spry Table with its many neat features (eg. sorting) that combines the 3 ds's (lets worry about 2 for now).
Incredibly simple but I'm stuck.
Timko suggestion results in syntax error- removing single quotes.
Collsanwa suggestion creates new columns so repeat is done for each row after You column:
24,Blue,3,1000,No
24,Blue,3,1000,No
24,Blue,3,1000,No
24,Blue,3,1000,No
24,Blue,3,1000,No
24,Blue,3,1000,No
200+ times
(I'll repeat the snippit) . Could you point me to an explanation for the spry:if id/mmid
Thanks so much.
<div id="apDiv4" spry:region="ds1 ds2">
<table class="sprytable" border="1">
<tr>
<th spry:sort="Q#">Q#</th>
<th spry:sort="Category">Category</th>

Work around for deprecated getIds() and getSession()
Hi All,
As getIds() and getSession() methods of HTTPSessionContext are deprecated I need to know some work around for them. Can anyone please help me out ?
My problem is as follows -
My application has users who can have more than one login till a maximum number. After that maximum number is reached, if same user tries to make another login system will only allow him/her to make it after removing all of his/her previous logins. As a part of that, system should also delete all the sessions associated with those previous logins. Now the methods getIds() and getSession() being deprecated, I don't know how it can be done without going to some persistent data layer (like database).
I'm using WebSphere application server and the solution need to be applicable even for a clustered environment (i.e. I may need to put both of my web tier and application tier in a clustered environment).
Any help will be really appreciated.
Regards,
Souravi don't know about handling the multi tier issue but you can easily put an instance into the ServletContext that keeps track of the associations between users and sessions and can react accordingly.

After loading Lion 10.7 I'm no longer able to use Quicken 07. Any work around?
After loading Lion 10.7 to my Desk Top, I'm no longer able to use my Quicken 07. Is there a work around? All my financial records are in Quicken 07 or do I need to remove Lion 10.7 from my computer
Quicken is a PPC application. They will not work in Lion because Lion no longer supports Rosetta emulation.
1. You can downgrade to Snow Leopard.
2. You can switch to Quicken Essentials.
3. You can purchase a different application that provides similar services for you. Examples are MoneyDance or MYOB.
Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard. I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1. -
Server 2003 R2 sp2 on IBM T42: is there a work-around for getting bluetooth to work?
I have seen a few forums here and there talking about possible work-arounds for the lack of a bluetooth stack in server 2003, and they have not worked.
The driver here:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-50245.html
Installs without compalint, but after reboot, cannot find a bluetooth device. The bluetooth service starts and runs happily.
I found a hack-around solution involving update Q323183 for tricking 2003 into installing a bluetooth stack elsewhere, it also failed to return any results.
Has anyone figured this one out?welcome to the forum!
i had this working on my T42p back in the day but that was 6 years ago. it installed using the driver from IBM and the MS BT stack. i'm about 95% sure i was using the standard version of 2003 which by default includes a BT stack. enterprise and datacenter do not since there's no logical reason for either one to be running bluetooth due to security risks.

I just upgraded from Acrobat Reader X to Acrobat Standard XI. Now when I attempt to print e-mails from Outlook 2010, Outlook crashes and becomes "not responding". I have removed all Adobe software from my machine. Run a repair on Outlook 2010. Reloaded Acrobat XI, and still the MS application hangs up. I have spent WAY TOO MANY hours screwing around with this. I work at a multi-national company....technical... blah, blah, blah,... $$$, time..., infrastructure...., blah, blah, blah. I have read some about this problem in the forums already... it seems this problem has been in the light.
Stop holding up the show.... society has enough problems. We're supposed to be the leaders!
What is the fix, or at least, what is the work around.Not sure how to do this except to reply to myself.
The question I asked is not "answered," but for whatever reason Acrobat XI has settled down and is working normally as before. Don't have a clue why. I did not make any further changes in anything. Thanks to those who read my question and pondered. -
Illustrator CS6 crashes using Effect Stylize Drop Shadow. There's a work-around
Illustrator CS6 crashes when using Effect > Stylize > Drop Shadow on a regular shape e.g. rectangle created by the Ractangle Tool.
I select the shape, apply the effect and it will crash giving this warning dialog: "The operation cannot complete of an unknown error: [CANT]". Then Illustrator CS6 crashes.
This is the crash report in Windows 7 32-bit:
Faulting application name: Illustrator.exe, version: 16.0.0.682, time stamp: 0x4f6e762b
Faulting module name: MMXCore.8BX_unloaded, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4f44e8d6
Exception code: 0xc0000005
The crash happens about 90% of the time.
Possible work-around:
Since I experienced some strange behaviour of CS6 applications before, I experimented witn running Illustrator as an administrator (elevated privileges). When I do that, I can apply the effect without Illustrator CS6 crashing. Here I go again..elevated privileges (see http://forums.adobe.com/message/4432510) .
I have to admit, this is one of the many strange behaviours in CS6 applications that make their performance and reliability very unpredictable.
Cheers,

When will you users on the Window platform learn to repair your permissions the problem when installing any software is that the permissions may not be set properly and this may be caused by the way previously installed software has changed your system.
Because there's no need to do a "repair permissions" thing, that being a bizarre Apple concept. In Windows, the software installation neither "sets permissions properly" nor does previously installed software "change your system" (whatever that means). Windows installation packages run under a special account to copy files into their proper directories without having to "change system properties". It's all done automagically and managed by Windows, not by individual applications.

I did rename the Prefs, and AI did re-create it, and the SFW problem I described was resolved. Great!, I thought, until I closed AI and opened it again -- Boom! Same problem.
The problems I described happen because software developers (and the Q&A testing teams) have an arrogant attitude -- they think "I'm the King of my computer and, by God, I'm going to run my computer as the most powerful user I can be." So they do all their work under the elevated privileges of an administrator account, and are completely surprised and clueless when their software fails to run under a standard user account. (Always running one's computer under the reduced privileges of a standard user account, by the way, is the recognized Best Practice for safe computing; and in these times it is now unacceptable to require elevated privileges to run an application....)

Web link work around for Pages
As of March 2014 Apple hasn't fixed the Export to PDF preserving web links bug! Pages 5.1 build 1769. This means that any PDFs you create from Pages won't have clickable web links past the first page.
Here are the work arounds that I have found so far.
In Pages keep your document to 1 page. Web links on the first page are fine.
In Pages 5 choose File > Export > Pages '09 and then on your Mac if you have an older version of Pages '09 in your applications folder, open it and open your exported file. Now when you export the PDF the web links will be there. If you don't have the older Pages '09 see the next solution.
Use a free web tool like PDF Escape to recreate the web links. PC like interface and you have to be careful to not leave the web page or you'll reset everything, but I found it was really helpful in copy/pasting the web links from Pages to PDF Escape. Didn't seem to work with HTTPS links, but others were fine. http://www.pdfescape.com
If anyone sees an inexpensive or free solution on the Mac App Store please share. Adobe Acrobat Pro CC or CS will also work, but it is too expensive for most folks.i don't know about handling the multi tier issue but you can easily put an instance into the ServletContext that keeps track of the associations between users and sessions and can react accordingly.

Work around/Alternate solution for Oracle error ORA-01460 and ORA-02063
After the installation of Oracle.DataAccess version 2.111.7.20, I get the following error.(the code worked fine with Oracle.DataAccess version 9.2.0.700 )
I have attached the error as well as the sample code.
ORA-01460 and ORA-02063 are known bugs in the new ODP but would like to know if there is any Work around/Alternate solution for this problem(other than
the use of stored procs)..
Thanks!
Error:
ORA-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested
ORA-02063: preceding line from BSREAD_STAGINGRO at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException.HandleErrorHelper(Int32 errCode, OracleConnection conn, IntPtr opsErrCtx, OpoSqlValCtx* pOpoSqlValCtx, Object src, String procedure, Boolean bCheck)
at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException.HandleError(Int32 errCode, OracleConnection conn, String procedure, IntPtr opsErrCtx, OpoSqlValCtx* pOpoSqlValCtx, Object src, Boolean bCheck)
at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleCommand.ExecuteReader(Boolean requery, Boolean fillRequest, CommandBehavior behavior)
at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleCommand.ExecuteReader()
SampleCode
private bool isValidFieldData(string clientName, string fieldNumber, string uniqueID, string clientID)
using (OracleConnection mBSConnection = new OracleConnection(mBSConnectionString))
OracleDataReader oRdr = null;
OracleCommand Valid_FieldData_Command = null;
try
Valid_FieldData_Command = new OracleCommand();
Valid_FieldData_Command.Connection = mBSConnection;
Valid_FieldData_Command.CommandText = "SELECT uniqueid FROM EXTDB.BSData WHERE agencyid = :agencyid and agencyname=:agencyname AND fieldnumber =:fieldnumber AND uniqueid = :uniqueid";
Valid_FieldData_Command.Parameters.Add(":agencyid", OracleDbType.Varchar2, 255).Value = agencyID;
Valid_FieldData_Command.Parameters.Add(":agencyname", OracleDbType.Varchar2, 255).Value = agencyName;
Valid_FieldData_Command.Parameters.Add(":fieldnumber", OracleDbType.Varchar2, 255).Value = fieldNumber;
Valid_FieldData_Command.Parameters.Add(":uniqueid", OracleDbType.Varchar2, 255).Value = uniqueID;
mBSConnection.Open();
oRdr = Valid_FieldData_Command.ExecuteReader(); ->Error occurs here
The error occurs whenever the length of any of the parameter is increased. But there is no specific length where it is breaking down.
For example in this case, it breaks down with the given error if
agencyID > 8
agencyName > 6
fieldNumber > 9
uniqueid > 6The problem was mapping input parameter type.
VARCHAR2-type mapping input parameter works with String-type PF parameter. But CHAR-type won't. -
MBP Superdrive fail to read work-around!
I have discovered a bizarro work-around to get the data off of your backup DVD's if your MBP Superdrive is failing to read properly.
I have a brand new 17" MBP Core 2 machine and the DVD will not read any more than the first half of the files on my backup DVD disks from my old PowerBook which i no longer available to use for xfer.
When all my backup DVD's exhibited the same problem (will copy about 2G of data and then fail with file read error) I suspected the drive rather than the media (I also saw discussions here).
I inserted a movie DVD to see if it would fail to play that as well, but the commercial movie DVD worked fine, even through the final credits. That seemed strange. I reinserted the backup DVD I had just been struggling with, and it now read the files that failed several minutes before! I now got 9/10 the way through the DVD before it again struggled and then failed to read a file.
Replacing the DVD with the movie, I again ran the credits at the end of the movie for a few moments, then ejected it and replaced it with the 'bad' DVD. I could then read the last few files off of it. I continued with this silly '"manual dexterity test" (remember this test from the days of the original 128K Macintosh with a single floppy disk drive?), and got through all 7 of my iTunes backup DVDs. I think I lost maybe 3 to 5 songs to bad DVD tracks, so that was a 99.9999% success rate, rather than a less than 50% success rate that I started out with.
The important points in the process are:
- this obviously won't work with a "multi-DVD single file" DVD like from using the Apple Backup application. It does work for me for DVD's with > 800 big files on it;
- running the movie DVD seems to "re-set" the Superdrive's heads to the correct positions;
- the heads then gradually run astray after more reads, and can't read the data DVD properly after another ~400 files (1 - 2G) or so (your milage may vary);
- when you hear the Superdrive come to a halt, that means you're toast again and it's time to swap out the data DVD for the movie DVD;
- when you go for the next try on your data DVD, don't futz around getting onies-twosies files - select and go for the entire remaining batch - you have nothing to lose;
- after a successful copy of nnn files with no error message, IMMEDIATELY grab more files and drag and drop them as quickly as possible. Don't let the Superdrive stop spinning or you are again toast, and it's time to eject and run the movie DVD again for a minute;
- it's VERY IMPORTANT that when you get the first Finder "can't read file" error to click Ok and then IMMEDIATELY eject the DVD. Don't click on the Finder window, try to scroll up the list of files, deselect files or do anything else, otherwise the poor Finder will grind away for another 10 minutes trying to complete whatever it's doing to redisplay the current list of the directory on the DVD!
- If there is a bad file, you will have to skip it on the next cycle of read attempts - I couldn't get it to read a few files that were obviously corrupt to begin with. However, you should try to re-read the file it fails on at least once - I was successful in re-reading the file it failed on > 95% of the time!
I hope this convoluted work-around works for you if you are desperately seeking backup data!

MacBookPro Mac OS X (10.4.8) brand new 17" MBP w/erratic Superdrivewhat does the "reset" input do? check its polarity vs what the rst block expects, or better yet, just connect ext_reset_in to fclk_reset0_n.
as to why you don't see anything when you write to unaligned addresses is that your program silently crashes as axi-lite slaves don't implement them and return an error which you are not catching.
