Oops: trying to create new library, but I tossed the library.xml file

No, it's not in the trash.
I just created my master library on an external HDD. I gutted my laptop iTunes file, wanting to start over. Now I can't create a new library b/c the library.xml file is missing.
I know I can copy the one from my master library, but I don't want that data; I want to start over, otherwise when I add the music files to my new library, I'll have duplicates of everything and will have to spend another several hours cleaning it up, and I'll probably screw that up.
So: I need either a new library.xml file; OR a way to take the other .xml file and tell iTunes not to add or do anything to it even though I'm adding all my content.
easy? maybe. tell me

Anybody know what's up with the menu.xml.files not being available for DW after installing on a new comp?

Usually that error can be cleared up by renaming the personal config folder. Turn on your OS's hidden files and then go to...
C: > Users > your username > AppData > Roaming > Dreamweaver (version) > your language > configuration
Rename the configuration folder configuration-old and start DW up. That should create an entirely new configuration folder and correct the menu.xml file.

How do I import an iPhoto Library (V.7.1.5) created on my old MacBook (10. 6.8) into my new Macbook pro (10.9.1) running iPhoto 9.5.1? I tried copying onto memory stick and moving to new mac, but new iPhoto doesn't recognise the library.

How do I import an iPhoto Library (V.7.1.5) created on my old MacBook (10. 6.8) into my new Macbook pro (10.9.1) running iPhoto 9.5.1? I tried copying onto memory stick and moving to new mac, but new iPhoto doesn't recognise the library.

So what exactly did you copy over? If it's a 12 gig iPhoto Library then it sounds like the files are there. Perhaps the copy went wrong along the way.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

You can't. Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID. In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer. And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:

Thanks for that information!
I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

I don't know if that works on the iPhone, but....
View your SETTINGS and choose ICLOUD. That will give you your cloud settings. At the very bottom it has a delete button. Click it an see what happens. After deleting the account (and potentially loosing data connected with it) you should be able to log in to iCloud using your old id.

HT5622 my i tunes id is not working......i try to create new id but it requires my visa card info....what should i do

my i tunes id is not working......i try to create new id but it requires my visa card info....what should i do. how can i get my precious id or how can i create new id without giving visa information. i tried but there is no none option in visa card part

What do you mean by 'my iTunes id is not working' ? Of you mean that it's disabled then you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your iOS deviced by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Store on iOS 6+) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them.
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
If you mean something else ... ?
In terms of creating a new account, there are instructions on this page for how to create one without giving credit card details : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 - the instructions won't work with existing accounts, and any content that you bought/downloaded with your existing acocunt will remain tied to that existing account.

After upgrading recently I got this message: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." The music/video files are still on my MacBook Pro. Is it because I'm still on 10.5.8? How do I fix this?

For your reference I’m using a MacBook Pro running 10.5.8. Several weeks ago on a Monday I received an upgrade for iTunes. When Tuesday arrived I attempted to log in so that I could download the latest freebie song(s). I was met w/this message: “The file ‘iTunes Library.itl’ cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes.”
The music/video files are still on my Mac (I’ve verified that via Searchlight), but I’m unable to open the program. Since I know that 10.5.8 is rapidly becoming prehistoric, could it be that the newest iTunes isn’t compatible w/this particular OS? I’d like to switch up, but understand that the newest OS won’t work on a Mac of this vintage (6 years old). In addition, my Adobe products (all CS2) won’t work w/anything newer than 10.5.8, so I’m reluctant to go to a newer OS (I just can’t afford the Adobe upgrade $$$ @ this point).
Is there any way to get a download of an “old” iTunes version? If there were, I’d simply refuse any future upgrades until my personal economy allows me to stop working as if it were 2006. Please advise, somebody!

I don't know how you received an upgrade for iTunes. You make it sound like it was sent to you. At most your computer will tell you of a new version and you tell it to download it and install it. However, a computer will not do this for a version which is incompatible. iTunes 10.7 came out a few weeks ago but your computer would not notify you and even if it did, 10.7 would refuse to install on your computer. So this part isn't making a lot of sense.
Two ways to get the 'newer version' message. One is to open your library on a computer running a newer version, and then try to open it with an older version. Usually happens when the library is on an external and used with multiple computers. The second way is if you have multiple versions of itunes installed on your computer.
The newest (and likely the last) iTunes for OSX 10.5.8 is iTunes 10.6.3 which has been out for quite a while.

Thank you & Best Regards

I think this is essentially saying that the Supervisor Assignment is wrong or no longer effective. Looking at your SQL to fetch the Supervisor Assignment there are a number of potential issues. This is what you've currently got:
SELECT person_id
INTO v_person_id
FROM per_all_people_f
WHERE employee_number = r.supervisor_number
AND business_group_id= v_business_group_id;
SELECT assignment_id
INTO v_sup_assignment_id
FROM per_all_assignments_f
WHERE person_id = v_person_id
AND business_group_id = v_business_group_id;
Potential Problems/Clarifications
1. What is r.supervisor_number, what does it contain and how is it derived? I can't see that anywhere else in the block...
2. Is there a chance that r.supervisor_number is referencing an employee who has left, ie, now an ex-employee?
3. The SELECT statement that fetches the assignment_id does not perform any date-effective restrictions, which means you might be lucky enough to fetch the person's current assignment. But you might also fetch an old or future-dated assignment.
4. The SELECT statement that fetches the assignment_id does not restrict the type of assignment, so if this manager has applied for a job (ie, they have an applicant assignment) or some other type of non-employee assignment you might be picking that up.
This would work better for you:
SELECT paaf.assignment_id
INTO v_sup_assignment_id
FROM per_all_people_f papf
,per_all_assignments_f paaf
WHERE papf.employee_number = r.supervisor_number
AND papf.business_group_id = v_business_group_id
AND nvl(papf.current_employee_flag, 'N') = 'Y'
AND trunc(sysdate) BETWEEN
papf.effective_start_date AND papf.effective_end_date
AND papf.person_id = paaf.person_id
AND paaf.assignment_type = 'E'
AND paaf.primary_flag = 'Y'
AND trunc(sysdate) BETWEEN
paaf.effective_start_date AND paaf.effective_end_date;
If it doesn't return a row it means that the supervisor (or whatever employee is returned by r.supervisor_number) is not active as at sysdate and cannot be used. Note that this SQL only applies for employees. If you can have Contingent Workers as supervisors in your implementation then this needs tweaking.
Does that help?

Trying to create a table but being denied access

Hi everyone,
I'm relatively new to APEX. I've been building applications on the apex installation we have at my job, but this is the first time i've actually tried installing this stuff at home.
I was successfully able to get 10g XE installed at home, and i was able to upgrade apex to 3.0.1.
I logged into apex (i tried both the SYSTEM account and the extra workspace developer account i made) and i tried creating a table, but kept getting the following:
Creating table "TESTTABLE" failed.
Failed Creating Table ORA-01031: insufficient privileges ORA-00942: table or view does not exist ORA-06510: PL/SQL: unhandled user-defined exception
The interesting thing is that I was able to make the table if i chose NOT to have a primary key generated. But if i tried to make a table that had a primary key "Populated from a new sequence" then that above error resulted.
Anyone have a clue on how I can fix this problem?
Thanks!
-John

John:
I recommend that you login to the administration interface as the ADMIN user, and create a new workspace. Once you create a new workspace with a new schema, you should not experience the problem you describe. First, make sure you follow Step 3, of the How to Upgrade section of the following document:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.0.1_and_xe.html
This will change the password for the ADMIN account. Now go to:
http://localhost:8080/apex/apex_admin
Supply ADMIN for the username and the password you supplied following Step 3 in the document above. Click Manage Workspace, Create Workspace, and then complete the wizard to create a new workspace.
Thanks,
Jason

Thanks for your helpYou didn't add 2 to the space character, so is that to be treated special?
Anyway, you have a String. That String has a length() to tell you how long of a loop you have to do. That String also has a charAt(index) method to give you a character while you're looping thru it. And I assume you know how to add 2 to a character value, and append that character to a new String or StringBuilder or StringBuffer until you're done with the loop.
