One user file is fast than another

For the past few days, my user file seems to be lagging. This problem seems to occur from time to time on my user file. I just checked another user file and everything is moving at a normal speed. I always do the maintenance like repairing permissions, clearing caches, resetting Safari, and so on. What's happening that affects my file but not others?

Hi Amy, probably fonts or prefs. btw - it's a user "folder".
Log back into your normal user account:
1. Navigate to YourHome/Library/Fonts - drag this folder to the desktop.
      Restart and test your applications.
      If they work start adding the fonts back few at a time.
( A likely suspects are Time RO & Helvetica Fractions, also if you do not use Classic you can trash the classic fonts.)
2. Check Preferences Thoroughly;
      Navigate to YourHome/Library/Preferences drag this folder to the desktop.
      Restart and test your applications.
      If this works, save the old preferences folder somewhere else or on disk, name it "old prefs" .
** Note: A very important file is the "com.apple.Mail.plist" preference file located in the Preferences folder which contains all email account settings and general mail preferences (hold this one and replace if your problem is not with Mail).
You'll have to go through some of your System Preferences and apps to set the preferences back to how you like them. (Or if you have the time and inclination, "cherry pick" through until you find the problem one or two.)
3. Check Permissions Inside Home Folder
   Navigate to yourhome/library.
   Get Info (Command + i) on the "Applications Support" folder.
   Open the "Ownership & permissions" disclosure triangle.
   Make sure you are the owner, with "read and write" access.
Click on "apply to all"
   If this is correct, open the "Applications Support" folder and do the same      procedure (Command+I) for the folders with the names of the applications you are      having trouble with.
Note:
The reason to check this is because repairing permissions with Disk Utility doesn't touch permissions inside your home folder.
If the isssue persists navigate to yourhome/library/caches and drag this folder to the trash, then log out and back or restart. There is no need to replace this folder.
Let us know.

Why does the same RGB color appear lighter in one ai file and darker in another?

Why does the same RGB color appear lighter in one ai file and darker in another?? I want to use the more vibrant color, but when I try to reproduce the same RGB color code in another Adobe Illustrator (ai) file, it shows up darker. I printed the two files out, and you can see the difference in the print too. I exported the color orginally as an eps file from an ArcGIS map.
Any insight is greatly appreciated!
Anne

You illustrator files may have different color profiles attached.
Set to show your color profile in the bottom left of each document by using the flyout menu >> show >> document color profile
Then you can use edit >> assign profile to get them the same
Yours are quite far off for RGB (which are usually close to each other for many profile due to wide gamut). I question as Jacob did if one of your documents are in CMYK mode. Look in parenthesis after the document name at top of window.
Check if view > proof setup is the same (do not use the uncoated profile as in my screenshot, that was only there cause of my testing)
Make sure view >> proofs colors is checked or unchecked for both.
To get them to print the same, check these settings are the same
Sorry for all the screenshots, but hopefully one day we will see Adobe's complex color management united all in one window.

PowerPoint file won't open under one user account, but does under another account

Hello,
I have a 10.9.5 macbook pro here that will not open a Powerpoint file under one user account. It is up-to-date with Software updates and Office 2008 is up-to-date as well. When I try to open the PowerPoint file, I get the message, "PowerPoint closed unexpectedly" and I can choose to Reopen (which opens a blank presentation) or OK (which closes PowrPoint). I have tried double-clicking the file from the Desktop where is resides, File --> Open from within PowerPoint and also saved it to a flash drive and tried opening from there. It does open under the admin account on the same machine and it will also open on other machines. Other PowerPoint files are opening fine...it's just a problem with the one file. The user has Read & Write privilege to the file. I tried Repairing Disk Permissions, I have tried deleting microsoft plist files, and lastly, have re-installed Office 2008. At this point, I can only think to try deleting the user account and re-adding it, but wanted to see if anyone had any ideas before I go that route.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Getting one swf to be higher than another in the zindex of a html page

Hey all could someone please show me how I can tell one .swf
to be higher in the pages object stack than an other, I presume
using javascript?
Any help would be great.

Add a table with two rows put the first one in the fist row
and the second
in the next row. or make a two div's that work and put them
in there.
I think that for you the tables would work better and end
your frustration.

Scanner won't work with one user but will work with another

Tonight I used my scanner and it worked fine. Then a few minutes later I tried to scan another documentand it wouldn't work. I finally logged off, and switched users (to Administrator) and I was able to use thescanner. I don't know why it works for one user but not the other. (This is very inconvenient.) What do I need to do to fix it?

Hi Rustyintegrale,
A couple of questions...
1. Does the unit immediately kernel panic when power from the bus hits the drive?
2. Does it happen in multiple users?
3. If you startup, interrupt the boot process and boot to the startup manager (by holding option on startup) and then plugin the SuperDrive does it kernel panic there as well?
When a peripheral causes a unit to go into this state, there's little that can be done to troubleshoot from a software perspective. Especially if your answer to all three questions above was "yes." You can certainly try resetting the PRAM & SMC, to see if there is any change. But, I think the next best step might be to bring the machine and this optical drive to see a qualified technician.

Unnecessary full backup of one users files

After purchasing the time capsule I was able to start an initial backup without problems. Some times later I discovered that time machine seems to backup to much data. I checked the fact using TimeTracker and found out that TM backup all the data of my user (admin user). The data of the other users and the shared data is backup all right.
Playing around a bit I found out that when I create a new file with my user and start TM directly afterwards TM doesn't back up this new file at all. After a restart of the Mac and start of TM again it performs a full backup of my users file.
This behavior doesn't show up for files of other users or of files in the shared data folder.
Is my user in someway corrupt?
I already tried to restart the backup from scratch but ended with the same behavior...
Regards,
Beat

It sure sounds like it.
Try doing a +*Verify Disk*+ on your internal HD, per #A5 in the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum. If that shows errors, you'll have to use the procedure in the yellow box there to repair it.
If that doesn't help, it's a long shot, but quick and easy to try a "full reset" per #A4 there.

HP F4180 is listed as a scanner for one user's account, but not another

One of the Snow Leopard (10.6.8) users on my in-laws' Intel iMac has the ability to scan from their HP F4180 printer/scanner, but the other user can only print. The device doesn't show up under Preview, Image Capture or the Printer settings panel.
The iMac has been checked for the latest software update. I'm not sure why one user can scan from this device, but not the other.

How can I get one audio file to stop once another is triggered on the same page in EPUB?

I have multiple audio files on one page and am able to trigger each separately with their own control panels. Unfortunately, these can all be played over one another. Is there a solution within InDesign to stop the first active audio file once another audio button is triggered on the same page?
WIll this have to be done through Javascript?

Use buttons. They can have have more than one action. Set a button to stop the first audio, and start the second.

E-Recruiting - Recruiter URL works for one user and doesn't for another

Hi
I am new to e-Recruiting, so any help will be greatly appreciated.
We are in the process of configuring the SAP e-recruiting module on an existing HCM system. It is only a demo system.
We started off with the IDES, with SAP sample data.
We activated the BSPs via SICF.
We generated the BSP URLs via program rcf_generate_urls.
We picked two existing employees (PERNRS) in the system and linked test IDs (USERID1, USERID2) to them in infotype 105. Both USERID1 and USERID2 have BASIS/Superuser authorizations.
When USERID1 runs the recruiter startpage it displays the page correctly. Pernr of USERID1 has a Candidate(NA Object) linked to it's CP object.
When USERID2 runs the recruiter start page it gives an internal error. This Id's pernr does not have a candidate object.
Should there be a NA object for every CP object? Does any one have some business process guides that may help us understand the relationships between the objects?
Please advise.
Thank you
Amina

Hello Amina,
not everyone should have a candidate (NA) object, every one MUST have a candidate object. No matter which role someone plays within the e-recruiting system (recruiter, manager, admin, internal candidate, external candidate, talent manager, ...) he needs a candidate to work with the system.
Assuming you have an ERP2005 (= E-Recruiting 600) you can use report RCF_USER_CREATE to create users for test purposes. For the productive environment you have to set up HR -> E-recruiting integration and can run HRALXSYNC to create candidates for existing employees.
I am not sure how much business process documentation there is in sap help. I have to admit I prefere learning from the system. Perhaps a very rough overview:
e-rec brings the following objects:
NA - Candidate
NB - Requisition / Application Group
NC - Posting
ND - Application
NE - Candidacy
NF - Talent Group
furthermore e-recruting uses some additional objects from the hr base and other components (P Employee, CP Central Person, US User, BP Business Partner, O OrgUnit, S Position, QK qualification group, Q qualification, VA/VB/VC Questionaire and its elements)
NA - The candidate is the central representation of everyone in e-recruiting. A Candidate is always linked to a CP which is linked to a BP and a US. If the person is an employee the CP is linked to the P object, too. (Hint: for integrated systems the user for an employee is not linked in HRP1001 but retrieved from IT0105 directly, e-recruiting uses a standard function of HR here, the hr function modules for reading object releations virtualize this assingment as hrp1001 relation).
NB - The NB object has currently 3 slightly different tasks. As requisition it is the internal view for an internal/external hiring request, it defines what you are looking for e.g. "ABAP programer, 40 hours/week, place of work London, ..". As application group it allows to accept applications for "areas" where you have currently no exact position to hire but regularely look for canditates. Application groups channalize unsolicited applications e.g. Interns, Engineers. Third usage is the requisition for succession planning - not really important.
NC - Posting is supposed to be the outside view. It contains the texts for the requisition published in the different channels. as you might to use a different text for the different media a requisition can have several postings. A posting has one or more posting instances / publications. They are not an hr object type, they define the channel with publication duration and language where you publish your posting.
ND - The application can be compared with the hardcover application. If a candidate applies he creates an application. The application is linked to the candidate of course and as the candidate applies through a certain channel the application is linked to the posting.
NE - The candidacy is the assignment to a requisition. You could say it is the task / intention to check a candidate for the requisition so it is linked to the requisition and the candidate. As the candidate applies for the job described by the requisition (application group are treated the same here) an application is always linked to at least one candidacy. If a recruiter decides based on the candidates profile that he is interesting for another open positions he can add more candidacies to the application to check the candidate for these requisitions. There is also the posibilit that you create a candidacy w/o application. Every external who applied and every employee is in the system even if he has no active application. External candidates can even register to the system w/o applying. You can check this pool for suitable candidate an assign them to a requisition. This is a candidacy w/ an application. You can later request a candidate to apply to this requisition but it is theoretical possible to process the complete hiring just with a candidacy.
NF The Talent group is used to structure the huge amount of candidates in the pool. E.g. you can form a talent group "High Potentials - Design Engineers". You can use these groups to easier find suitable known candidates if a matching requisition is opened. But they are also needed for pool development. For short applicant groups you can track them and try to stick with your company till you get the right opening for them.
The other object are linked to this core. Qualifications are linked to requisitions as requirement and linked to candidates of course. OrgUnits and Positions can be linked to requisitions to link to OM. Questionaires are assigned to candidates at all for general appraisal or to candidacies to appraise the suitability for the requisition or to track interview, assessment results.
There ore other "objects" in e-recruiting which are not represented by an OTYPE. One example is mentioned above the publication. Others are recruiting team and recruiting plan. If you need information to one of these just post another reply.
Hope that gives some basic overview about the objects.
Best Regards

Is it possible for one user to use Aperture and another iPhoto?

I have a new imac 21.5", 3.33ghz, 4gb and I was wondering if it is possible for me as admin user to handle camera downloads automatically with Aperture, and my wife as second user to use iPhoto as automatic camera destination? Any comments would be appreciated.

If you want to use the same account there are a number of possibilities:
1. Set both Aperture and iPhoto to Do Nothing when a camera is connected. Then each one can launch their preferred app themselves. It's just one extra click.
2. Use [Cameras|http://www.flexibits.com> to configure what happens when different cameras are connected.

IChat works in one user account but not in another

my computer phobic parents just bought a new 27" iMac and I've been using iChat's screen sharing with him to help my dad with the computer, we've already set up a separate user account on the machine for my mom we can't get iChat to work under her user account.
The apple rep had trouble using her Gmail account so he set up an AIM account but still no luck
I have her in iChat under my dad's user account and can do video chats and screen sharing with her, no problem.
But regardless of whether or not we leave her jabber account logged in under my dad's user account, we can't get iChat to accept her account info when she is loged into her own user account.
(P.S. parental controls for her account aren't activated neither is admin privileges)

Hi,
Make her account an Admin Account.
A Managed Account and Parental Controls tend to be somewhat linked and a sliding scale of things.
If there is no reason to Manage her account there is no reason why she cannot also be an Admin account.
She should also Check iChat > Preferences > Accounts > Security and see who is in the Blocked or Allowed Lists and see if you are in the wrong one.

How to restrict one user making DDL changes in another schema

can anyone please let me know the way to restrict a user making the DDL changes Through Procedure (This user have the execute privilege on procedure owner by another schema) on another schema.
Let say we have schema A and B. our requirement is, The User A should grant execute privilege on all the procedure that are created on A to user B, but if at all there is a situation a procedure is created with DDL changes(with execute immediate option) and gave the execute privilege to the user B, Then user B can make DDL changes through this procedure. i wanted to restrict user B making DDL changes any way to user A .
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Karthik

Your requirement doesn't sound terribly sensible. If you want B to be able to execute the procedure, grant B access to the procedure. If you don't want B to be able to execute the procedure, don't grant B access. If you are concerned that someone is going to change the code in the procedure after it is created to transform it from something that you want B to have access to into something that you don't want B to have access to, you should be reviewing changes before they are promoted.
If you're really determined to do things "uniquely", I suppose you could create a DDL trigger that looks to see who the user is and throws an exception if it is B. But that seems like a poor second choice to dealing with the problem sensibly from the outset.
If you aren't reviewing the changes and building code that tries to check whether something bad got slipped in, you're going to be fighting a losing battle. If you write a DDL trigger that checks the user, for example, and I'm a developer that's intent on creating holes, I could simply add code to a procedure that submits a dbms_job that executes DDL. That job would run as A so your DDL trigger would let it pass. Of course, you could then turn around and disable DBMS_JOB in which case I could use DBMS_SCHEDULER instead. You could disable that as well but then you're disabling the scheduler jobs that Oracle runs by default for things like gathering statistics. And then the rogue developer simply moves on to the next hole to exploit.

How do I tell a plugin (vlc) to play one media file type but not another?

I just installed the vlc plugin for osx to watch a certain live stream.
unfortunately vlc also thinks it should handle all mp3 files I open in safari.
how do I reassign the quicktime plugin to handle mp3 links in my browser?
(this is safari 2.0.4)

I'm not offended!
Might try this...

Photo Booth crashes for one user, not another.

Just upgraded to Lion, 10.7.1. On a 2007 iMac, Photo Booth works fine with one user. But switch to another account and it crashes every time after asking to create a new photo library. Any suggestions?

From What I've found.. it seems 3ivx or Perian could cause this problem. A friend had this issue and deleted 3ivx and it fixed his crashes. Alternatively, some folks are reporting that turning off 32-bit mode (Get Info) for Photobooth has also fixed, although this was already turned off in my friend's case. Or if you have iGlasses installed.

Copy Form Setting from one user to another

Hi,
I am using 2005A.
How to copy form setting (rows and UDFs at header) from one user to another user?
Thanks

Hi Ming Ming On,
I found a note couple of years ago.
I can't remember the note number, and I attach the note here.
Solution
The following queries enables you to set preferences for one user and copy those to another user who is supposed to have the same preferences.
Explanation for the queries variables:
dest - Company database name
sourcid - Represents the user ID from whom the preferences will be copied.
destid - Represents the user ID to whom the preferences will be copied.
How to get the user ID?
From SAP Business One query interface or from the SQL Query Analyzer, run the query as follows:
1. SELECT T0.U_NAME, USERID FROM OUSR T0 FOR BROWSE
2. From the query's results, identify both the sourcid and the destid.
3. In order to copy the preferences from sourcid to destid, run the query as follows:
a) Replace the text dest with the company database name.
b) Replace the text sourceid with the user ID from which the preferences will be copied.
c) Replace the text destid with the user ID to which the preferences will be copied.
d) Use dest, if exists (select 1 from sysobjects where name = 'temp_dev_sup')
e) Begin - drop table temp_dev_sup
f) End - select * into temp_dev_sup from cprf where usersign='sourcid'
Deleting a certain user:
Delete from cprf where usersign='destid'
Update userid in temporary table:
1. Update temp_dev_sup
2. Set usersign='destid'where usersign='sourcid'
Insert preferces into CPRF table
1. Insert into cprf
2. Select "" from temp_dev_sup where usersign='destid*'
예제)
1. Use TEST_MONAMI
2. drop table temp_dev_sup
3. Delete from cprf where usersign='2'
4. select * into temp_dev_sup from cprf where usersign='1'
5. Update temp_dev_sup
Set usersign='2'where usersign='1'
6. Insert into cprf
Select * from temp_dev_sup where usersign='2'
