Permissions - 'apply to closed items' doesn't work - help!
I took my wife's user folder off my MacBook Pro (and backed up) recently since I needed to clear some space. I then got a larger hard drive installed. I have now copied the user folder back onto this new hard drive. I am now having no end of permissions issue with that folder - can't open applications due to folders not being able to be modified, can't modify desktop etc. I tried to modify the permissions of the folder using 'get info' but it didn't modify enclosed items even though I selected that option.
I then created a new user for my wife and copied the contents of the old user folder across. Then tried to modify contents - again it wouldn't apply to enclosed items. I have also tried repairing permissions but it then seemed to apply me (even though I was logged in as my wife) as the owner of the folders! Huh. I'm a bit lost.
Any ideas?
I would use Migration Assistant to move your user account from the old drive to the new drive.
From what I've read about trying to 'fix' the permissions when you try what you did, you won't.
Apply to enclosed items has always been flaky; however, applying to enclosed items is not what you want to do. While the folders have certain permissions, those shouldn't necessarily be applied to the contents. You are also propagating ACLs into the contents of the folders and that definitely is not correct.

Hey, I've tried to install the new iOS 7.1 but it says that the installation cannot be completed and doesn't say why. I have more than 50% battery left but it still doesn't work, help?
It probably means you don't have enough available storage on your phone. It takes space to store the download - THEN unpack it. Best method is to use a computer with iTunes (This allows you to back up on your computer as well).
PLEASE: Do not purchase iCloud storage space - this will not give you more room for the iOS 7.1 installation. -
Two select commands in one item doesn't work?
I've created an item in a region which contains one select sentence which goes like:
select sum(r.amount * price.prices * re.sats * ac.sats)
from registration r, pricetype price, ressoucecostdriver re, activitycostdriver ac
where
r.art_art_id = price.art_art_id
and r.activity_activity_id = 42
and re.ressourcecostdriver_id = 47
and ac.activitycostdriver_id = 53;
to that sentence I need to add the following select sentence as a sum of this one and the previous select sentence
select sum(r.amount * price.prices)
from registration r, pricetype price
where
r.art_art_id = price.art_art_id
and r.activity_activity_id = 22
So what I really need is the sum (sum(r.amount * price.prices) + sum(r.amount * price.prices * re.sats * ac.sats)) so to say, but without the where sentences is the same.
I've tried to "rename" the last select sentence to somthing like
select sum(rr.amount * priceprice.prices) to avoid the where constraints to apply for both of the select sentences, but that doesn't work apparently.
Can anyone help me?Morten,
If you look closely at the query I posted for you, I have used WITH statements to encompass each of your two queries, I then (in the last line) perform a simple select from those queries, you could simply add the two values together there if you like.
For example -
jes@TESTDB> with tab1 as (select 1 as num1 from dual),
2 tab2 as (select 2 as num2 from dual)
3* select num1, num2, (num1+num2) as num3 from tab1, tab2
NUM1 NUM2 NUM3
1 2 3
jes@TESTDB> with tab1 as (select 1 as num1 from dual),
2 tab2 as (select 2 as num2 from dual)
3* select (num1+num2) as num3 from tab1, tab2
NUM3

SOCO function "Complete Item" doesn't work
Helo.
Please help to solve a problem.
We have SRM 5.5
We want to remove positions from SOCO through function "Complete Item".
But at logon under the Ukrainian language function doesn't work. At logon under English language function in SOCO works.
How can it be? And why?Hi,
either you need to install the Ukrainian language completely (including supplementation) or if you plan to use the translation workbench for mass translation, you need to translate the texts included in the application you use.
Please note: If you plan to use Translation Workbench (SE63) for mass translation, supplementation in that system should be avoided (see e.g. SAP Note 353852) !
Best regards,

New Plug-in item doesn't work as cascading lov
I have just finished creating a new plug-in that is a searchable select list. I want the LOVs to be cascading. In other words if I have another item on the page I want to be able to specify in my plugin item that the parent LOV is that item. How do I make it work with the cascading LOVs. I am guessing that I have to add some code to my render function but I have no clue what and there are no examples of how to do this. I did find the following in the api documentation but I am not sure how to use it or whether it is what I am looking for
apex.widget.initPageItem
Here is a link to an example of my new plugin. There are 2 items on the page. Z is set to have X as its cascading LOV parent but it doesn't work and would like to know how to make it work. You can also download my plug-in from this page and try it yourself.
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=32395:3Hi,
the "apex.widget.initPageItem" will not help you in your case, it's used to register callbacks for $s, $v, show, hide, ... if you have a more advanced item type. You can have a look at the "Star Rating" plug-in which implements several of these callbacks.
For adding cascading LOV support, please have a look at our own select list implementation in /i/javascript/uncompressed/apex_widget_4_0.js
Search for
apex.widget.selectList = function(pSelector, pOptions) {to get a blue print implementation for all the steps you have to add to your widget to add cascading LOV support.
If you need further help, please let me know.
Regards
Patrick

Apple Menu: "Recent Items" doesn't work proper anymore
Hi,
i switched from 10.5.8 to 10.6.4 and recognized that the "recent items" in the Apple Menu doesn't work proper anymore.
While OS X is running everything works fine. When i restart the computer all recent items are cleared.
I want it to behave like it did in 10.5.8, that all recent items where displayed even after a restart.
I recognized that the "open recent" command in applications like TextEdit or Preview behave the same. While the Program is running everything works fine . If I close and restart the app, open recent is cleared.
I tried do adjust it under Appearance in the System Preferences, but if i set all Numbers of recent items to "none" for example and restart the computer it will be set for each (Application, Document, Server) back to 10 again.
Hope someone can tell me a solution because i use "open/ recent Items" alot and it really disturbes my workflow.

p.s.: I did a quick forum search and did not find any topic about it.
Message was edited by: SPUMDHi Andy,
thanks..i checked the preferences for the com.apple.recentitems.plist and didn't find one.
It seems like the system doesn't write down which items i loaded. I trashed this .plist earlier because i
saw that hint somewhere else.
i did like you said and created a new user account, tested different apps and documents, restarded and everything was displayed proper in the "recent items" Appel menu and in the "open recent" of every App.
I searched in the test account for the com.apple.recentitems.plist, copied it to the preferences of my account and restarted the computer. In the "recent items" displayed the Items that i used with the test account but after several tests it is clear that the system doesn't write down the recent items when i open my account. The com.apple.recentitems.plist still showes only the items i used with the Test account and the info of the file says that it wasn't touched sinced i copied it from the test to my account.
The Terminal command didn't change anything. The question is why doesn't the system write down wich items and documents i used when i'm in my account?

HELP! Uploading AS3 Game to server, no sound and Spacebar doesn´t work HELP!
Hello, relatively new to AS3 and flash, this is the first time i am publishing anything. We are trying to upload our simple flashgame to our webserver, the game works perfectly fine locally save for one thing. We get an error regarding TLF which says it wont stream or something. So when it gets online, no sounds play and spacebar doesn't work, left and right arrow does work. We have three TLF text fields that are used to update score, lives and show you final score. If i turn these into classical text they stop working.
Things we have tried: Changing default linkage from RLS to Merged into code, changing the text boxes to classical text(they then stop working), made sure the paths are correct(all files are in the same directory including the .swz file)
This is the code from the soundclass:
package
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;
import flash.events.*;
public class MySound
private var bgSound:Sound;
private var fireSound:Sound;
private var waterSound:Sound;
private var earthSound:Sound;
private var lightSound:Sound;
private var soundChannel:SoundChannel;
public function MySound()
soundChannel = new SoundChannel();
bgSound = new Sound();
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("BackgroundSound.mp3");
bgSound.load(req);
//fire
fireSound = new Sound();
var req2:URLRequest = new URLRequest("soundFire.mp3");
fireSound.load(req2);
// water
waterSound = new Sound();
var req3:URLRequest = new URLRequest("soundWater.mp3");
waterSound.load(req3);
// earth
earthSound = new Sound();
var req4:URLRequest = new URLRequest("soundEarth.mp3");
earthSound.load(req4);
// light
lightSound = new Sound();
var req5:URLRequest = new URLRequest("soundLight.mp3");
lightSound.load(req5);
public function playBgSound()
soundChannel = bgSound.play(0, 999999);
public function stopBgSound()
soundChannel.stop();
public function playFireSound()
fireSound.play();
public function playWaterSound()
waterSound.play();
public function playEarthSound()
earthSound.play();
public function playLightSound()
lightSound.play();
I can somewhat get that sound can bugg out, but why does spacebar stop functioning? ANy help is greatly appreciated as this has to be delivered in twelve hours(published online) for a school assignment.Also might add publishing it locally in my own browser everything works, as does ofcourse playing it in flash itself. Changing from RLS to merged into code stops the error from coming, but doesn´t fix the problem on the server.

Atan in jdk1.1.8 doesn't work. help
I am creating a program which simulate the effect of gravity on a object (for a game). For this I am working with jdk1.1.8. (not by choice). But for some reason the movement of the object just turns around. I believed that de method Math.atan2 was wrong so i have rewritten it and it worked better. But the method atan most likely doesn't work either because it is not perfect yet. Does anyone know or have an implementation of de atan method in java that works so i can use it? Because I don't know how the method works.
maybe i am wrong here but it is basicly the only solution to my problem. if give the code of the bullet class with it. maybe anyone sees the problem there:

But since my calculations should work in theorie (worked it out with a math teacher) it's the only options I could think of.
[qoute]
I haven't looked up in the API docs how atan2 is supposed to work, but I noticed these two lines in your code:
forceAngle = atan2(dy2,dx2);//the angle of the force with the y-axis
travelAngle = atan2( (x-oldx), (y-oldy) );
In one place you use Y and X as the parameters and in the other case you use X and Y. They can't both be right.
[qoute]
In this case it is. because the forceangle is opposite the x-axis and thus the two must be reversed. (travelangle is opposite the y-axis).
I have also tried to reverse them (for both) but the effect got worse :)
Thanks anyway. -

IPhone 4 sleep button doesn't work -help

Stuck on apple logo and Home button doesn't work, help please?
Well, I dropped my iPod Touch 4g by accident and since that day, the home button hasn't really been working that well. Its very hard to use since you have to press it in really hard to get it to work and sometimes it doesn't even work at all. Anways, I was skyping with my girl and I didn't notice that I had to charge the iPod and it died on me so I was like what ever its normal and started to charge it. When it turned on, it got stuck on the Apple logo and its been there for more than a day now? What can I do? I know about the Press Home + Sleep button together but the Home button doesn't work at all anymore. I tried everything really. I tried to connect it to itunes and see if I could restore it but it won't recognize it no matter where I connect it. Tried it on 3 different computers and none worked at all. I can't take it to an Apple store since there isn't any close to where I live and I really don't have anyone to take me there. So is there any other solution to fix my problem at home? or is it messed up completely? Someone please help me
I have this same issue. But also, it isn't just that the lock/home button stops working, all buttons stop working. Even if you switch it to silent sounds are still played. I just got my iphone Thursday. Went to school the next day and pulled it out, it happened while it was locked I guess because my screen was black and I couldn't do anything! Thought it died already! This was around 12. Finally I pulled it out of my pocket again at around 3 and it showed the Apple logo and acted like it had just started back up. Which is what always happens after I get stuck playing a game or something. Help please, has happened two or three times just today.

since updating to firefox 09 my scroll feature on my touch pad doesn't work. How do I fix this, please? I have a Gateway laptop. This has never happened before with other updates.
Thanks so much!!Thank you so much for your link - unfortunately it is totally beyond my skills to understand or correct the bug as posted. I can find the touchpad icon and right click to open the options and that's about my speed. If this is a bug should I uninstall Firefox 9? Thanks so much...

Find Finder Items doesn't work?
I can't seem to get a basic thing to work...
Find Finder Items (Where "camerafiles" & Whose Name Contains "camera1")
View Results
Always results in ()
Have tried contains, begins with, ends with....nothing works.
The folder contains about 300 files that all start with "camera1-xxx-xxx-xxx"
Any ideas or is it just broken?
Dual Processor 1.4 Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.9)Depends on what?
I don't understand why "where" the folder is located should make any difference. But here's the path:
Macintosh HD:Applications:4DWebSTAR:WebServer:Users:heckman:camerafiles
Spotlight doesn't let you limit your search to a specified folder. I mean, why search the whole hard drive when you know the files you want are inside a specific folder?
I tried a Cmd-F find for the files, they don't come up. I tried a Spotlight find, they don't come up. I open up the "Macintosh HD" drive from another computer on the network, do a Cmd-F find on that machine, they show up.
So I guess the issue is: why can't I find them on the local machine they are actually on? The files are definitely there. -
hi all my boss has just got himself a nice new mac and wants to connect it on to my windows domain at work, no problems there it’s all connect fine, one thing we done was to map a few of our network drives on our domain so he can easily load them to his mac, works great when it’s on the domain however when he goes home and logs in for each mapped drive it throws up a window saying it can’t connect or when it is connect opens up every drive, even after disabling them at login, now on the apple website the text reads "if you don’t want an item's window to be visible after login, select hide. (Hide does not apply to servers, which always appear in the finder after login), does anyone know any work around that can maybe solve this or point me in the direction where I can find one.

Applying brightness/contrast effect doesn't work
I have a project in the correct format on a properly formatted external drive. When I apply the brightness/contrast effect the red progress bar appears and the hard drive works for several minutes while the bar fills. But when it's over, the effect is not applied and the clip looks the same.
I have closed and restarted iMovie and tried again and I have trashed the Font Collections folder.
Any further help would be appreciated.Like everyone else here, I'm just an iMovie user who volunteers to help answer questions.
Unfortunately, recent changes to the Discussion software introduced bugs that make it very difficult to reply to user questions. Despite assurances by Forum administrators, these bugs are not being fixed.
