Must have LabVIEW installed on your computer to call a VI from SignalExpress?
I am a student trying to finish up a class project, so I'm hoping for a solution that's not too time-consuming, nor expensive.
My problem is that I have a device that outputs a 9-pin RS232, and I just learned that I can't really connect it to my DAQ device (USB-6211) through just ground/tx/rx pins. I was told in the forums that if I get a USB-RS232 converter (because my laptop doesn't have RS232 ports), I might be able to create a VI in LabVIEW to use as a user-defined step in SignalExpress, which came with my DAQ device.
I don't have LabVIEW on my computer; however, I do have access to it on school computers. If I create a VI on another computer, specifying the appropriate COM ports and whatnot, will I be able to import it into SignalExpress on my computer despite not having LabVIEW installed?
Or, does anyone know if there's any way I can use the RS232-USB converter and find that comport directly in SignalExpress? I've looked in the help, but from what I can tell, SignalExpress communicates directly to the USB-6211, and not to any other COM ports I might have on my computer. This would be a much simpler and easier solution, if it were feasible. Thank you!
Hey Hyenah,
I think Chris from the last forum answered the question quite well with the knowledge base article.
You should be able to use the labVIEW run-time engine, and then follow the Knowledge base article to make it work.

Nick D.

Error: "install failed mac os x could not be installed on your computer"
Wanted to post an error I repeatedly got in case anyone else out there has the same issue. Went to do a snowleopard (10.6) upgrade and clean install on a mac pro (coming from 10.5). After about the "26 minutes left" mark I repeatedly got the following error:
"install failed mac os x could not be installed on your computer
the installer could not copy the necessary support files
click restart to restart your computer and try installing again"
i searched a bunch for this and could not find any definitive answers or help.
the log file was very vague, referring to errors writing package(s).
at first i thought it was a bad DVD drive as it was making a bunch of noise and taking a long time to boot. So i went and purchased a new DVD drive and successfully installed it. nope, same issue. then i pulled out all of my 3rd party RAM. nope. then i tried swapping the RAM into different configurations, nope.
after many many hours of various methods and re-partitioning, etc, just for the heck of it i replaced the harddrive, and it worked!
So, for those of you out there who get this error, try troubleshooting your hardware, try swapping your harddrive.You should be able to install Mac OS X 10.7 or later on your 2011 MacBook Pro without issue, if it came with 10.6.3 as your signature suggests.

If I have lion installed on one computer, how do I transfer it to another without having to download it? My net is to slow to redownload it. I searched for lion os x.app in finder and couldn't find it.
Downloading Lion from the Mac App Store didn't put the Lion OS on your computer. It put an application package called Install Mac OS X Lion on your computer; specifically, in your Applications folder.
If you install from the Install Mac OS X Lion application package inside your Applications folder, the application package (the installer) will be deleted once the installation is complete. You must copy the installer to another location or to another drive/media before you run it to upgrade to Lion - if you didn't do that, then you have to download it again.
If you did copy the installer, then you can just copy it over to any other Mac you own which meets Lion's minimum system requirements and run it again to upgrade those other Macs to Lion. -
Help!! What's going wrong here. I used to have iTunes installed on this computer but lost it when it crashed. I've tried re-installing it numerous times but I keep getting the same error message. "Error writing to file: C:\ProgramFiles\iTunes.Resources\es.lproj\iPadLicense.rtf. Verify that you have access to that directory." I know I have access to that directory because on a different computer I can sync my iPad and iPhone. What am I doing wrong? What do I need to go in and authorize or turn on? Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you.
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards? -
I use my Adobe programs from the Creative Cloud. When our design agency sends me files, I open them and fonts I have on my computer aren't showing up when I open the file. Everywhere online it says I need to add the fonts to InDesign's font file, but since I'm working out of the Creative Cloud, I don't have that option. How do I get InDesign to recognize these fonts when I'm opening files from our agency?
ID sees fonts installed on your computer and contained in a Document Fonts folder in the same folder as the document, if one exists.
I don't really understand what you are saying about fonts you have installed not showing up. And cloud makes no difference -- all the applications and support files are installed on your hard drive. -
You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer
Environment
Print server: Windows 2008 R2 SP1
Clients: Windows XP SP3 + GPP
Drivers:
HP UPD PCL6 5.3.1.10527
Intermec 7.2.2
Ricoh UPD PS 3.9.0.0
Xerox UPD PS 5.216.12
Zebra 2.6.42.03
GPO Configuration - enables users to add printers/drivers from the print servers.
Background
For the last year, we've had the 2008R2 print server set up and the clients have not had any problems connecting to the print server to add printers.
Issue
Over the past ~3 weeks, we've gotten spurious reports from users stating they're unable to add a printer. The specific error displayed is:
You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer.
It occurs for multiple vendors, so it's not a print driver specific issue. I've personally witnessed the problem where (using a User's account) I was unable to add Printer X out of a list of 10 random printers. 2 minutes later, still logged on
as the same user, I was then able to add Printer X which doesn't make any sense since nothing had changed.
Another user logging into the same workstation will not have any problems adding the same problematic printer. The user who had the problem can log onto a different workstation and add the same printer with no problems, so it's not a User permission
issue either.
Most of the time running gpupdate /force and/or rebooting the box will also 'solve' the problem.
Running the group policy results wizard on a few random workstations (which have exhibited this problem in the past), shows everything appears to be properly configured/enabled related to GPOs, including the
Prevent users from installing printer drivers setting per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/259937
Has anyone else ran into this problem lately?
How does one troubleshoot this issue since I can't faithfully reproduce it on demand since it appears to resolve itself after a period of time?Haven't found the smoking gun to this problem, but I am getting closer.
Troubleshooted another PC today which was exhibiting this problem for another user. Logged onto the PC with my User account and sure enough, received the same message for the same printer. Fired up Sysinternals Process Monitor, but nothing useful
was captured when receiving the failure message. There was also another Point and Print printer which was present on the workstation (i.e.
PrinterName on PrintServerName) for my User account which stated "printer cannot be removed. Access is Denied" when I tried to delete it. Odd. Getting properties on the printer would bring up the correct info from the print server
though, so it was valid and appeared functional.
I tried running the new
MS FixIT printing tool, but it failed in full mode with an admin account.
Next, I searched through the registry for this printername which I was unable to delete. Eventually it was found at:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Providers\LanMan Print Services\Servers\PRINTSERVERNAME\Printers\PRINTERNAME
On a hunch, I deleted the entire PrinterName key, restarted the print spooler, and then was able to add the printer with no permission errors! There were several more printers listed in this registry key. I tried the same steps again:
validate receiving 'sufficient access' error.
purge printer's registry key
restart spooler
Able to add the same printer via point and print.
This solved the problem on half of the printers. The others added with no errors. The printer drivers in question are from both HP and Xerox, so I doubt it's a vendor specific issue and instead Windows (unsure if XP or 2008 though).
It would appear that Windows caches the information about the printer/driver/settings/etc from the print server in CurrentVersion\Print\Providers\LanMan Print Services\Servers\PRINTSERVERNAME\Printers\PRINTERNAME ? Why does it need to be duplicated
in both HKLM and HKCU?
Separate PC, further exploring this printer issue and the contents of the \LanMan Print Services\Servers\PRINTSERVERNAME\Printers\ keys. On this PC, I successfully ran the MS FixIt for Printing tool in Full mode and rebooted. After reboot, the

"You do not have sufficient access to your computer " Why??????
Why am I getting this error connecting from Vista to a shared printer on my iMac under 10.5.5?
Bottom line? Bonjour doesn't work with Vista. Manually install the printer in Vista the old fashioned way.
I experienced the same general problem and here's exactly what I did to get around that message. Hopefully this is helpful to anyone who's facing a similar situation.
MY SETUP: installing a hp LaserJet 1012 that's tethered to a wireless Time Capsule (home network) on a virtual VISTA platform running within Parallels 4.0.3810 on an iMac OS 10.5.6.
THE PROBLEM: WinXP (also virtual) connected to the printer through BONJOUR FOR WINDOWS without any problems. However, doing the same in Vista resulted in a last step termination of installation with the following message from Vista: "You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer." Lovely.
Turns out, according to Microsoft (link: support.microsoft.com/kb/946394/en-us Help and Support Article ID: 946394 - Last Review: January 24, 2008), the problems is due to "the Hewlett-Packard (HP) print driver uses an HPBmini.dll file ("HP Mini Installer") whose version is earlier than 1.0.0.13."
My workaround was to simply install the network printer manually via ~ (the following are the choices that I clicked on in VISTA)
Vista Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Printers > Add a printer >
Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer >
The printer that I want isn't listed >
Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or hostname >
CHOOSE - Device type: Autodetect
INPUT - Hostname or IP address: "Time-Capsule"
(which is the specific hostname in my case, the hostname can be found by going to OS X System Preference > Print & Fax > click & highlight the printer installed on the local network in OS X and look for the hostname after "Location:". Remember, Windows do not do spaces, so if there are any spaces in your hostname be sure to substitute a dash "-".
SELECT - "Query the printer and automatically select the driver to use" >
Device Type > Standard | Generic Network Card > Install the printer driver* >
(*Here's the tricky step, since you don't want to use an old driver which would bring up that old insufficient access message, but you do have some options:
a) you have a known VISTA COMPATIBLE driver from the manufacturer (net downld);
b) the "Add Printer Wizard" window may contain a driver for your specific printer or a similar printer. Also, try the "Windows Update" button to refresh the choices if you can't find it the first time; and finally,
c)"Generic" is a legitimate choice in the Manufacturer window if you can't find any better options.)
From there, it's just Next > Next > and choose to share printer, etc. to finish up.
Luckily, I got through to "Print a test page" and it all works without the annoying "insufficient access" message.
Best of luck to you. -
Os x could not be installed on your computer undefined error
After carefully following instructions to create a bootable USB drive with Yosemite and running disc utilities to erase the drive, I received the message "os x could not be installed on your computer undefined error 0." I see thousands of people have run into the same problem and jt appears Apple left out key details about what needed to be left on the root of the USB. This is unacceptable and, in fact, is fraud and misrepresentation under consumer protection laws.
I've been using Macs since they were first introduced, but Apple has strayed so far from its roots, it's now a corporate rogue. Apple is going to envy Radio Shack's stock price when I get through with them. Executives and board members will now find their properties attached and face criminal--not just civil--penalties. Its jail time now for the criminals at Apple.Thank you for reading my comment. I ran disk utilities off the USB and erased the hard drive, aiming for a completely clean install. It appears the installer made per Apple's instructions omitted key install files.

Adobe Acrobat Reader has not been installed on your computer

Adobe Acrobat Reader has not been installed on your computer.
You will be directed to a site where you can download
the most recent version of Adobe Acrobat Reader.
But I already have reader installed and its up todate. HELP. I use a mac, This happens on Chrome and Firefox.
I have tried disabling and re abling the plugin. I disabled the default browser viewer. still cannot view the item to print.Have you done ALL OF THIS?
In Firefox make sure you have at least two (2) tabs open - (Ctrl+T opens a new tab)
In the address bar of one tab, type "about:config" - minus the quotes, of course
You'll see a warning. Click "I'll be careful, I promise" and continue to the configuration page.
There's a search bar at the top. Type "js" - again, minus the quotes.
In the results you'll see pdfjsviewer.disabled with a vaule of false. Click it once, then right click it and choose Toggle to make the value "True".
Close that tab.
Click Tools>Options and go to the Applications tab
Locate Adobe Acrobat Document (or Portable Document File (PDF)) in the list and click the drop-down to select "Use Adobe Reader (in Firefox)". (Mine doesn't have that because I also have Acrobat Pro installed)
Click OK.
Click Tools>Addons to see that the Acrobat plugin is installed
Close and restart Firefox. PDFs should now open in a browser window with the Reader plugin. -
I can not find solution to the issue "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the required video codec is not installed on your computer" while attempting to play the file with *.wmv extension. Some computer fail in spite of said missing codec
being present according the windrows media player in Windows 7 boxIf Rashid's link does not resolve it... consider the below:
A) As of this writing, the codec for GoToMeeting webinar recordings ("G2M4" codec) was only mentioned in *one* web page, of about 10 Microsoft web pages I read, to resolve this problem (and that codec is not included, yet, in their diagnostic tool),
so if you're trying to play a GoToMeeting webinar, simply get the codec for it from their site: http://www.GoToMeeting.com/codec
B) If Windows Media Player (WMP) will not even open the file, you won't be able to get the 4-character codec's name (like "G2M4") from WMP. But VLC's media player will tell you that code, even when it fails to run the video.... and then you can
search the internet for it.
C) The problem sometimes is not actually a missing codec. Other things that have helped others, some from:

(1) running the System File Checker (SFC.exe),
(2) opening WMP first (running both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions) then opening the file from inside them,
(3) confirming that WMP was the file association for WMV files,
(4) Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Sound, selecting my audio device, and looking for a "5.1" setting (I didn't have one), to change to "stereo",
(5) checking Tools\Options\Devices\Speakers\Properties\Speaker Properties\AdvancedPlayback\ Speakers /HP\Properties\Advanced\Default Format, to select "CD or DVD Quality" (if that setting appears for your device),

Do i have iDVD installed on my computer? If not how do i get it?
Do i have iDVD installed on my computer? If not how do i get it?
Hard to say, not knowing what computer you have, but if it is a new iMac running Lion, then the answer is no.
The current Apple thinking is that the entire world has access to fast broadband and wants to distribute home movies to friends and relatives via download (iCloud) rather than mailing them a DVD. The fact that in reality not all users do, has so far had no effect on this policy. If you scream and shout loudly enough down the phone Apple may send you a free copy of iDVD. That worked for some, but is now said to have been withdrawn by Apple. Also, you can complain bitterly here, perhaps suggesting that Apple could have provided a choice between using iCloud and burning DVDs:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Whilst Macs with a Superdrive continue to be able to burn video DVDs, the software for so doing, iDVD, is no longer included in the iLife bundle that comes with OS 10.7 Lion (which also omitted iWeb) or will come with OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. And it is no longer included in the iLife 11 from the online Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/ilife/. Your only solution is to look on Amazon or eBay and try to get an older version that includes iDVD.
However, the vastly more expensive FCPX can burn a DVD without iDVD or DVD Studio Pro involvement, but lack the themes etc of iDVD. Also, of course, there is Roxio Toast. -
Install Failed: OS X could not be installed on your computer.
So my Macbook was bought last December 2012. It's specs should be able to run Mavericks.
I've downloaded the software already, so far so good.
When installation starts, it fails and I get this message:
"Install Failed: OS X could not be installed on your computer. OS X can't be installed on the disk because a recovery system can't be created. Visit www.apple.com/support/no-recovery to learn more"

Then I find the message above and tells me to go here:

I've never done it but it should be possible. Don't forget that a "partition" acts like a real drive and it is a real drive in every sense of the word except that it shares a physical disc with another drive.
Will try that once I get home from University later. Should I back up both OS X and Bootcamp into the hard drive or just one of them? Then reinstall Mountain Lion, then install Mavericks? Did I get that right?
I don't see any reason why you need to reinstall Mountain Lion. It's been a long time since I've done any partitioning but, if I remember correctly, you can enlarge the main partition provided that there is no data in the secondary (Boot Camp) partition. If I'm correct, you'd need to first back up Boot Camp, then erase the original BC partition, then resize the partitions and finally load Mavericks.
