Possible solutions to Mulitiple Roles/Activites -Open thouht

Background:
1.In corporations where the end user comes in in three differnent shifts will need to execute SAME activites.
2.Here the Posistion remains the same, activites remain the same , role remains the same.
3. What is differnent is the end user and the time.
Given this sceanarion, how do we define the access credentials ? By end user or by the posistion ?
Thanks

Hello George,
It takes courage to field a snappy comment and accept an apology for it as well, thank you!
(I won't comment on the courage it takes to ask the question in the other thread
Making correct judgement calls is more difficult than clicking on the "lock" button. We all make mistakes
Getting back to the technical stuff: Regarding reference users (mentioned in the other thread), you should be carefull of auditability aspects with them as well. Assigning authorizations to a user indirectly via another user (as opposed to assigning a user to a role) also weakens the audit trails (at least it did the last time I checked).
Also see SAP note 513694 (regardless of whether you use the concept or not).
Kind regards,
Julius

Possible solution to iTunes 6 not opening, and B Noir is a genius

Hello
Im a first time poster here, and I have had some success getting my iTunes 6 update to work after I was experiencing the same problems that many posters here have had. I thought I would share how I fixed it, and maybe it would help someone else out.
I upgraded to iTunes 6, and it wouldnt open. After doing a little searching, I saw that a lot of people that had problems had Norton Internet Security. I figured for sure that was my problem.
So, after a couple hours of trying different fixes, I finally figured I would uninstall NIS, and get another firewall/virus software. iTunes STILL would not open! (Neither would Quicktime).
I ran MSCONFIG with the following steps (This was found on another thread on this forum)
1. Start > Run > type "msconfig" and press enter
2. Go to the services tab
3. check "hide all Microsoft services"
4. click disable all
5. find "iPodService" and check that one (so its the only process)
6. go to the startup tab
7. click disable all
8. check qttask and ituneshelper so they are the only programs checked
9. restart
When I restarted, iTunes started fine. However, this isnt the end to the solution. This basically shuts all other services down on your PC.
I had read in another post here by B Noir (who seems to be able to fix all problems if you post it! Thanks B) that there are a lot of malware exe's that can get on your machine that are 6 character .exe files. I started MSCONFIG again, paid close attention to all of the things on the 'Startup' tab, and sure enough - I had a file named YCRIYK.EXE that looked completely unfamiliar. I also googled it, and only got back three suspicious hits, one of which was an Asian website that I couldnt read, the other ones being related to spyware. I should also add that I am relatively paranoid when it comes to spyware/viruses, and that in addition to NIS, I also run Adaware, as well as several other spyblocking tools pretty often - I have no idea what this file is or how it got on my PC.
So, I turned all other services BACK ON (using the steps from MSCONFIG) EXCEPT for that one. I also reinstalled NIS to verify that indeed it was not the problem. Im assuming that this was some type of malware conflicting with either Quicktime or iTunes, because making sure that didnt start fixed my problem, and iTunes/Quicktime is working now.
Good luck to you all. I know how frustrating this can be!

I can sympathize with your situation, archerdave1.
Firewall software and anti-virus software are supposed to prevent things from running on your computer. This is to protect you from malicious software running without your knowing about it.
If you run firewall and anti-virus software, it is your job to tell those utilities which programs (eg iTunes) that you want to be exempt from their operations. You have to manually configure your firewall and anti-virus software to play nice with iTunes or any other similar program. This is not Apple's fault, and it's not Microsoft's fault. You as the user have to learn how to do this.
You also need to know how to use msconfig.
For all the above reasons, Windows computers are very hard to work with and configure these days. I'm a professional computer technician, and it bothers me that people who really don't like to tweak computers are going out and buying Windows systems. They are just too complex.
There is a perfect solution to your problem. You can switch to Macintosh. Since there is NO spyware and NO viruses that affect Mac OS X, you can ignore all those anti-virus and anti-spyware headaches and just enjoy using your computer.
Moral of the story: If you don't want to tweak and configure your computer constantly to protect against malicious security problems, just get a Mac. Problem solved.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

IPhone 3G *Camera Shutter Not Opening* Possible Solution?

Curious...
Does anyone know if you were to take out the old camera and install a new replacement camera, would that fix that shutter problem? Would the shutter re-open again???
or would the problem still exist??
Would apprciate a response or answer to this. Thank you in advance!
Note I know there was already a forum on this question, but I haven't seen anyone suggest this possible solution. And NO I do not have warranty. So I cannot get this iPhone replaced.

Try a reset or restart.
If the app is still missing, download again via iTunes or connect to the computer and sync it back from iTunes on the computer.
Frankly, in the time it took to sign up and post here the app could have already been re synced from iTunes on the computer.

Possible solution if you can't install Acrobat 9 Pro via CS4 Installer

(Thanks to Paul_Belza for this idea.)
Symptoms:
Acrobat 9 is grayed out in the Setup window of Creative Suite 4 installer.
Opening the carat reveals an incorrect explanation of: "Acrobat 9 is already installed."
You have more than one hard drive attached with an OS X install that has had prior Acrobat installs on it.
Possible Solution:
Unmount all drives except your current startup drive and try again.
Discussion:
Apparently, the Acrobat prior install scanner is not very picky about where it finds a prior install. It searchs any and all drives rather than just the current startup drive and/or the currently chosen install drive. In my case, I had a clone of my start drive so I could start the arduos process of making a manual deployment setup.
Since I was previously involved in the CS4 beta, I wasn't too phased when I initially encountered issues on this machine, but much less pleased when I ran all the official uninstallers, cleaners etc and it still claimed Acrobat 9 was installed. Eventually stumbled on Paul Belza's note that the scanner is indiscriminate, unmounted my additional backup drive and all was immediately well.
(Note: During the process, I also came across the fact that with a volume license Acrobat 9 Pro can be installed simply by mounting the extensions/Acrobat9_es.dmg (whatever it is called exactly) and dragging the folder into your Applications folder. As long as you have previously installed a CS4 app (so it doesn't hang at the serial number screen), it will self-repair and be ready for use.

Not sure it will help, but try it when logged in as the administrator and with anti-virus turned off. As far as error numbers, must of us have no clue (there seems to be a list at Adobe, but we don't work there.

Buy my problem of camels Store Lee games possible solution for me my problem?

Buy my problem of camels Store Lee games possible solution for me my problem?

This worked for me, sort of. A while back when I downloaded that windows update that installed the new version of IE, I noticed that IE wouldn't connect to the internet and pages wouldn't load. However, I thought nothing of it because I use Firefox and FF was working just fine.
I went into IE earlier this evening (it still wasn't working) and tried to follow your recommended steps. I got up to step 4 and IE froze. I tried closing it, reopening it and repeating the steps but it would always freeze at step 4. In another thread, someone was saying that iTunes released a security update and that fixed the store for them so I tried opening Apple Software Update and that froze. I tried it several times, nothing. Would always freeze. I even tried updating thru iTunes and IT would freeze.
Finally, I went to the control panel and uninstalled IE7. The iTunes store and the Apple Software Update program are now working! So thank you very much for your suggestion. Otherwise, it may have never clicked with me that IE was the problem.

PrintWindow api with possible solution for capture screenshot Google Chrome window

Hi,
as all you know, PrintWindow api give us a black image when us want a capture screenshot of Google Chrome window. So, a friend said me that a possible solution for this problem is:
Reduce Google Chrome window for -1px in both sides and after this, reset to original size. And so, will repaint again.

Safari hanging up? Here's one possible solution.

This report contains one possible solution to Safari hanging up on certain web pages.
Over the past couple of days, my PowerMac G4 started hanging up when I attempted to load certain pages from CareerBuilder.com.
The bottom of those CareerBuilder.com pages always reported that only xx of yy items (say, 32 of 37 items) were completed, then the spinning ball would appear, indicating that Safari had hung up, requiring me to Force Quit it. Those same CareerBuilder.com pages did not cause Safari on my iMac G5 nor my MacBook Pro to hang up, so I concluded that something had gone awry with Safari on the PowerMac G4 only.
Since other postings related to this topic appear to require a Crash Log to analyze what is going on, I checked for a Crash Log both via Console and by searching for one in the Crash Report folder, but there was none to be found there.
I tried pasting the "Problem Details" report that resulted from my most recent Force Quit, but whenever I tried to Post the Message, I would get a message telling me that "We're sorry, Apple Discussions is temporarily unavailable. We'll be back soon." Other users have reported getting the same message, perhaps because the clipboard contains way too much text. I suppose I could have chopped that long Problem Details report into pieces and passed its information along that way, but I'm not sure that the Problem Details report gives quite the same analytical information as a Crash Report. Besides, from what I could glean, the myriad of well-meaning solutions that were offered seldom, if ever, appeared to cure the problems users were reporting.
Instead, I took a cue from a guy who reported in another thread on Apple Discussions that he cured Safari from hanging by disabling Java and JavaScript in Safari's preferences. That seemed efficient and reasonable, so I implemented his solution.
It seemed to work at first, but a short time after disabling Java and JavaScript, the Mac froze up. I could not access any open applications, nor could I force quit anything. My only choice was to press the power on button for over five seconds to force the computer to shut down. Exhausted from trouble-shooting, we both took a long nap after that. (Recommended trouble-shooting step.)
Upon refresh and restart, I launched Safari. It was now able to access the page in CareerBuilder.com which was causing the hang. However, because JavaScript was now disabled, I could no longer see the rollover button function on my own portfolio website, nor could I see who had visited my website at StatCounter.com, a web analytic service I use to monitor web traffic.
I wanted those abilities back.
So, with tabs open to both the offending CareerBuilder.com page and to StatCounter.com, I re-enabled JavaScript. When I refreshed the StatCounter.com page, the previously unavailable data updated fine. When I refreshed the Career-Builder.com page, all 96 of 96 items updated fine: most importantly, the page did not cause Safari to stall, as it had consistently been doing before.
I switched back to the StatCounter.com page, I enabled Java, and I refreshed that page. No issues to complain about there. I moved back to the problematic CareerBuilder.com page, and I refreshed that page. Safari re-loaded all 96 items again—this time pausing momentarily to report "1 error"—without hanging up.
I cannot know for sure, but perhaps the Java programming "error" contained on that CareerBuilder.com page was the trigger for causing Safari to hang up. Perhaps there was nothing wrong with my Safari configuration after all. This explanation is plausible, because the only hangs Safari has experienced over the past couple of days have occurred on two different CareerBuilder.com pages.
Thirty minutes later, refreshing that same problematic CareerBuilder.com page resulted in only 80 of 81 items being completed, as a new bunch of advertising messages cluttered up the page. Perhaps that one item which failed to load is related to that "error," which continues to be reported. However, at least the page is no longer stalling Safari.
In any event, these were the steps that "cured" the problem of Safari hanging:
1) In Safari preferences, disable Java and Java Script.
2) Shut down the computer.
3) Take a long nap while the computer is powered OFF.
4) Restart the computer and relaunch Safari.
5) Optional: Enable Java Script, then Java, if certain sites require them to be enabled for full functionality.
6) Optional: Visit pages that had caused Safari to hang, and see if Safari functions fully on those pages.
I have no technical understanding of what may have caused Safari to hang in the first place, or if switching Java and Java Script off and then back on, is the true solution to the problem. Maybe letting the computer take a long, overdue nap did the trick! I had been placing it in Sleep mode for several days, so it's missed a good shut down and re-boot routine.
But I am pragmatic about success, so I am merely reporting what worked for me and what I did. Your mileage may vary.
I will monitor the situation and report any future Safari hangs should they occur, since that might be an indication that the problem was not related to Java or Java Script at all.

Possible solution to airplay audio problem

Fist of all, sorry for my english.
I had the next problem, videos from itunes or youtube works fine, but when I tried to stream only audio, from ipod aplication or spotify it doesn´t work. Some times make a little noise, other times the conexion returns to the iphone or ipad...ant many times the wifi of the phone or the ipad hangs, and have to reboot...
I´ve tried many things, with two diferent routers (both of them wireless n), different configurations, open ports, went to the genius bar, even broke a router (it hangs and there wasn´t any way to restore, even with a hard reset)...
Finally, today it starts to work. What I did is:
1. Change wifi channel to 9.
2. Disable WSC setup in my router configuration.
3. I think this is the most important: enable WMM (wifi multimedia) on the configuration of my router. It´s a comtrend model, maybe this is called in another way in other router configuration.
4. And reset my apple tv (menu+down 5 secs).
Probably it´s not necesary to make all these steps, looks like point 3 is the different from previous attempts...
So check your WMM router configuration and try.
Hope it helps.

Intresting notes... When you download album artwork from iTunes it really doesn't add it to the MP3 track, it stores it elsewhere and assoicates it internally some how to the album. Where as adding a artwork in through the actual file will change the size of your MP3 track, by embedding the artwork into it so that other apps (like windows media) can see them.
That would be an interesting find if that is indeed the case.... Furthermore if that solves the problem, than apple should have an easy fix on thier hands.
However, since most of my music is direct downloads from iTunes and has the artwork directly embedded into the music files like I mentioned above that might be why I've never encountered the issues.... As I found out about this quirk a while back, because some of the tracks on the PC or on my iPod would never show the album cover before...
Hopefully someone else with the same problem can help confirm this possible solution!

IPod is not recognized by Windows Vista - possible solution

During the past couple of weeks that I faced this problem I found out that a lot of people had the same question as I did.
Here is a possible solution.
I have HP Pavilion laptop with Windows Vista. After I connected my new iPod – it didn’t show up in My Computer as a new device and in Device Manager it was listed in “Other devices” with a question mark next to it. I already had iTunes installed – it didn’t show up in iTunes. On the attempt to reinstall the driver I had a message that the driver was found but an error occurred while installing it.
Here is what I did:
1. Install iTunes (it has iPod driver for Vista in it).
2. Turn on iPod and connect it to computer.
3. Restart computer with iPod turned on and connected to computer.
4. On the start up the computer will begin automatically installing the driver and the message will appear in the corner that new device is being installed.
5. After it has been installed – check My Computer – you should see it listed there.
6. Run iTunes and configure iPod.
iTunes might run a little bit slow when configuring iPod for the first time.
Good luck.

if only this fix worked for windows xp or even 2000 (at my job)
insane, but it IS a driver/usb problem i now know, at least i've gotten that far.

Possible Solution to Google Search Bar Not Working/Safari Not Loading Pages

Hello Apple Forums,
I have recently encountered a possible solution to a problem with Safari. The one in which Safari fails to load any page associated with www.google.com. Especially the Google Search Bar—a feature I use frequently.
After browsing through the forums about the Google Search Bar issue, I took my knewly gained knowledge, and decided to do some diagnosing for myself.
This is what I have done so far to try and solve this issue:
Run Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Cron Scripts
Cleared the following caches:
System Local Computer Cache
System VM (Swap) Files
Curent User Cache
Current User Icon Cache
Internet Explorer Download Cache
Page History
Web Site Cache
Temporary Files
Safari Downloads List
Form Values
Page History
Recent Searches
Site Icons
Web Site Cache
User Cookies (used by Safari)
Finder Recent Applications
Recent Documents
Recent Folders
Recent Servers
Recent Files of AppleWorks 6
Disk Utility Disk Images
Preview
QuickTime Player Favorites/Recent
REALbasic Projects
TextEdit
VideoLanClient
and Other caches of Acquisition Current Downloads
Acquisition Recent Searches
MSN Conversation History
Vicomsoft FTP Client Icon Cache
All of the above runnings of Cron scripts and clearings of Caches were done using Mac Pilot version 1.1.5 (yes the one on the site is an updated version, but I have not downloaded it yet). If you decide to use this program to clear caches, I advise not clearing the Installer Receipts under the System section as Installer Receipts are used to correctly repair permissions. I do not clear Find File Indexes either, because I use the Find File feature quite frequently on my computer and I do not want to have it re-index files all the time (perhaps I'll do it every few months or so to refresh what I've got on the harddrive). Remember, all the information given in this paragraph is relative to Mac Pilot version 1.1.5.
In addition, I have also repaired permissions using Disk Utility 10.4.4 (v145.7) (make sure you restart your computer after you repair permissions). I have taken out items in /harddrive/library/StartUpItems as well as taking out items in /harddrive/library/Internet Plug-Ins and in /user/library/Internet Plug-Ins and in user/library/Caches (restart your computer after taking out or putting in items in these locations).
As of now, all the information mentioned above about trying to fix this problem have NOT worked.
What HAS WORKED for me was tinkering with my 3rd party firewall—Norton Personal Firewall Version 3.0 (48). Under the Protection Settings, I HAD Enable Active FTB support, Enable Stealth mode, Enable suspicious activity protection (with Deny outgoing suspicious traffic and Deny incoming suspicious traffic selected), Enable UDP Protection (with Protect outgoing UDP connections, Allow access to essential services, and Protect a range of UDP ports 1 through 1023 selected).
What I CHANGED in Protection Settings was DESELECT Enable suspicious activity protection (with Deny outgoing suspicious traffic and Deny incoming suspicious traffic DESELECTED). Upon deselecting that information the Google Search Bar feature in Safari WORKED practically instantaneously. Before hand, anything I inputted into Safari and after hitting Return on the keyboard just wound up hanging there.
Just to be sure, all tests were performed on:
IMac G4 800 Mhz SD Mac OSX 10.3.9 with ALL the latest Software Updates, Except Apple Remote Desktop Client version 1.2.4 and iPod Updater 2006-01-10
I have a cable internet connection with ISP Time Warner Cable (RoadRunner) using a SurfBoard SB4100 Cable Modem on an AirPort Extreme Base Station (Apple Base Station V5.6)
Interesting side note: I have a PowerBook G4 15" 1 Ghz Mac OSX 10.3.9 Laptop running on the same network (although it has an airport extreme card as opposed to the regular airport card in the iMac) with ALL the same latest Software Updates, Except iPod Updater 2006-01-10. The Apple Remote Desktop Client version 1.2.4 does not come up on Software Update on the Laptop and I can not find it on the harddrive using a name search in the Finder Find feature. It does not show up in Applications folder, so I do not know if it is on or active on the Laptop.
The LAPTOP IS ABLE TO USE ALL GOOGLE FEATURES without DESELECTING Enable suspicious activity protection (with Deny outgoing suspicious traffic and Deny incoming suspicious traffic DESELECTED). Why this is apparent I have not officially confirmed.
What I do know is that I have tried to Uninstall Norton Personal Firewall Version 3.0 (48) with the appropriate uninstaller but it FAILS during the uninstall (I wanted to uninstall and reinstall, it appears the program became corrupted). What I did to possibly circumvent this was to search for the phrase 'Personal Fire" using the Finder's Find feature (Search for items whose name contains 'Personal Fire') and deleted all the files that came up related to Norton Personal Firewall Version 3.0 (48). I then reinstalled Norton Personal Firewall Version 3.0 (48) since then, and it continues to have the problem with Enable suspicious activity protection (with Deny outgoing suspicious traffic and Deny incoming suspicious traffic selected).
What I have not done:
Updated Prebinding
Run TechTool Pro version 4.1.2
Install Combo OSX 10.3.9
Initialize HardDrive with complete reinstallation of OSX 10.3.9
To Summarize Possible Solution
I've tried many possible solutions, what appears to work best as of now is to DESELECT Enable suspicious activity protection (making sure Deny outgoing suspicious traffic and Deny incoming suspicious traffic are deselected) under Protection Settings in Norton Personal Firewall Version 3.0 (48).
One could try deselecting something similar in any firewall application other than Norton Personal Firewall Version 3.0 (48), to see if it is suspicious activity settings in firewalls that cause the problem.
Any comments/feedbacks are extremely welcome.
Hope It Helps!

Hello tr:
Welcome to Apple discussions and thank you for your very very thorough post.
Your instincts to delete anything named "Norton" were right on the mark. Norton software is POISON to Macs running OS X. An additional software firewall is, IMHO, completely unnecessary. Turn on the built-in firewall in OS X - it is robust. In fact, if it is already on, there may be a conflict.
Go to Symantec's web site and use the uninstaller you should find there to get rid of the Norton stuff. After you do that, do a "find" on Norton and Symantec to be sure it is all gone - the stuff hides everywhere.

Adding reminders to my calendar items is no longer an option after the software upgrade. I also can't get to day and week view, only month view. What's a possible solution?

HT1414 I updated to iOS 6.1.3 a while ago, but recently noticed I can't access wifi (when the wifi off/on switch is frayed out) does. Anyone know a possible solution to this problem.

This problem occurred in the last few weeks and is a real downer for me because I like apple products but if I can't use wifi then I can't do my work or use much data Any possible solutions will help. Thanks

Hi DJK2012,
