PPC G4 Tower dual 1.25 GHz: Where to find the 9.22 OS install disks
There are some old discussions of this, but by starting a new thread perhaps a solution will be obtained. I acquired two PPC G4 dual 1.25 GHz towers. They do not NOT have FW800. They have only FW400, thus OS 9.22 should install and work. Do not want 9.22 working under OS X. Just need pure 9.22.
Been working for about a month to apply 9.22 to these machines. I've obtained 9.22 install disks from eight sources, such as FTP, Internet purchase, web download links, friends, local stores, etc. Only two of the disks are acknowledged as bootable, and they do boot the machine to completion. But upon starting the installation, proclaim that the install disk cannot be used with the machine. What's the secret to installation ?
Does one install the OS 9.22 software on another G4, such as a DP or SP 800 mHz and transfer the drive to the 1.25DPs ?
Thank you.
Several of those which had and could dual boot OS X and OS 9.2, required OS X to be installed and present, first and before OS 9 could be used as a secondary boot system. The firmware versions played a large role in this and likely there also were in-chip changes beyond firmware flashing on their logicboards.
I spent some time several years ago trying to discover the problem someone out-of-country had in attempting to restore funcational OS 9.2 booting to a DP PowerMac of this vintage, and the answer came back to the actual need to have OS X (in system software package, part of the computer's included kit) installed first. And if the correct drivers were not loaded at the time, the later OS 9 system in the software kit, would not work. And the OS 9.2 could not be installed by itself.
And the detailed facts of the matter were a hard-sell to those persons afar who did not choose to believe them. Finally they posted their question in these Discussions when their computers were fairly new. And I replied to the same questions in the forum. There was controversy even then as not all believed the facts.
All that, yet you could put an OS 9.2.2 into one of these fringe machines if you did not use their install method. Even a 'classic 9' from an iBook G4 (mid-2005) 12" 1.33GHz software packet can be used to boot up an original OS9-only boot computer of an older vintage. The software would have to be extracted in OS X with a utility such as Pacifist, and the files modified very little, put on a USB drive, and dragged in. However some of the correct files for certain graphic cards or other items would be lacking unless you happened to have one of the last retail OS 9.2.2 full install discs that were not limited to specific versions of hardware. And even just these discs won't work on the PowerMac that requires OS X installed first, because OS X controls the installation. If you get past the need for the 'installer' then the actual system will work; or after the OSX prepared the original setup, it could be removed.
To think I had one & gave it away with a vintage powermac
and extras, to someone who had no clue why it was there.
Good luck & happy computing!

Hi
When I got this new PC I did a complete audit. I found that this was kenotify.exe at startup.
Different info I found on the internet say it is essential to the functioning of FN.
I also noticed that when I press the FN apuie it generates no code. I have a small java script code returns me all the keys pressed on the keyboard.
I am surprised that the FN will work for you while you do not have this executable. -

where to find the best application for cleaning out my MacBook Air with OS X 10.7.5? I've been using MacKeeper but believe it's slowing down my laptop considerable. Thank you.
How to maintain a Mac
1. Make redundant backups, keeping at least one off site at all times. One backup is not enough. Don’t back up your backups; make them independent of each other. Don’t rely completely on any single backup method, such as Time Machine. If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.
2. Keep your software up to date. In the Software Update preference pane, you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don’t mind letting them phone home. Otherwise you have to check yourself on a regular basis. This is especially important for complex software that modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Before installing any Apple update, you must check that all such modifications that you use are compatible.
3. Don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this stuff is useless, or worse than useless. Above all, avoid any software that purports to change the look and feel of the user interface.
The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
As a rule, the only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Use your computer; don't fuss with it.
Safari extensions, and perhaps the equivalent for other web browsers, are a partial exception to the above rule. Most are safe, and they're easy to get rid of if they don't work. Some may cause the browser to crash or otherwise malfunction. Some are malicious. Use with caution, and install only well-known extensions from relatively trustworthy sources, such as the Safari Extensions Gallery.
Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it. Otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
4. Beware of trojans. A trojan is malicious software (“malware”) that the user is duped into installing voluntarily. Such attacks were rare on the Mac platform until sometime in 2011, but are now increasingly common, and increasingly dangerous.
There is some built-in protection against downloading malware, but you can’t rely on it — the attackers are always at least one day ahead of the defense. You can’t rely on third-party protection either. What you can rely on is common-sense awareness — not paranoia, which only makes you more vulnerable.
Never install software from an untrustworthy or unknown source. If in doubt, do some research. Any website that prompts you to install a “codec” or “plugin” that comes from the same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy. Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be acquired directly from the developer. No intermediary is acceptable, and don’t trust links unless you know how to parse them. Any file that is automatically downloaded from a web page without your having requested it should go straight into the Trash. A website that claims you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, is rogue.
In OS X 10.7.5 or later, downloaded applications and Installer packages that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked from loading by default. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before you do so.
Because of recurring security issues in Java, it’s best to disable it in your web browsers, if it’s installed. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This action is mandatory if you’re running any version of OS X older than 10.6.8 with the latest Java update. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Don't install Java unless you're sure you need it. Most people don't.
5. Don't fill up your boot volume. A common mistake is adding more and more large files to your home folder until you start to get warnings that you're out of space, which may be followed in short order by a boot failure. This is more prone to happen on the newer Macs that come with an internal SSD instead of the traditional hard drive. The drive can be very nearly full before you become aware of the problem. While it's not true that you should or must keep any particular percentage of space free, you should monitor your storage consumption and make sure you're not in immediate danger of using it up. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the startup volume for normal operation.
If storage space is running low, use a tool such as the free application OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the most space. Move rarely-used large files to secondary storage.
6. Relax, don’t do it. Besides the above, no routine maintenance is necessary or beneficial for the vast majority of users; specifically not “cleaning caches,” “zapping the PRAM,” "resetting the SMC," “rebuilding the directory,” "defragmenting the drive," “running periodic scripts,” “dumping logs,” "deleting temp files," “scanning for viruses,” "purging memory," "checking for bad blocks," "testing the hardware," or “repairing permissions.” Such measures are either completely pointless or are useful only for solving problems, not for prevention.
The very height of futility is running an expensive third-party application called “Disk Warrior” when nothing is wrong, or even when something is wrong and you have backups, which you must have. Disk Warrior is a data-salvage tool, not a maintenance tool, and you will never need it if your backups are adequate. Don’t waste money on it or anything like it. -
WHERE TO FIND THE Mac OS X to reinstall the programs?
WHERE TO FIND THE Mac OS X to reinstall the programs?
If you're talking about OS X 10.6 or earlier, iLife and other programs are on the application disk, usually the second disk of the set. If you need a set, you can call Apple Support to see if they are still available for sale for your system. The first disk is the operating system.
If they don't have the original OS X disks for your system, you can buy OS X 10.6 from the online Apple store, via phone or online. And the iLife programs from vendors like hardcoremac.com and on Amazon.com. OS X 10.5 is no longer available from Apple and has to be bought from a vendor or used. If you buy used, buy a retail copy and not the gray-faced copies, as they are locked to the system type they are delivered with.
If you're talking OS X 10.7 or later, those are loaded from the App store, as there are no disks included with those systems. -

Where to find the XSLT used for the standard interface in SAP ME 5.2 SP05?
Hallo!
Starting with SAP ME 5.2 SP05 there is a new logic for the standard interface used in SAPMEINT.
I wonder where to find the XSLT's that are used for transforming the XML messages?
I can see from the SAP NW log:
[Transaction: -1] starting execution of Visiprise/ERPShopFloorIntegration/frame/workflow/XSLTDelegate.trx
Loading file Visiprise/WEB/XSLT/Outbound/EquipmentStatusChangeUnSchDown/EquipmentStatusChangeUnSchDownRequest.xslt
select: path Visiprise/WEB/XSLT/Outbound/EquipmentStatusChangeUnSchDown
select: name EquipmentStatusChangeUnSchDownRequest.xslt
The definition for this XSLT is as follows:
WEB://Visiprise/XSLT/Outbound/EquipmentStatusChangeUnSchDown/EquipmentStatusChangeUnSchDownRequest.xslt
How is this resolved???
From the (pre SP05) SAPMEINT I know two variants:
1. High performance interface
The XSLT files come from the MII shared memory entries for project SAPMEINT
2. Standard interface
The XSLT files come from SAP ME (table XSLT and XLST_ASSIGBNMENT) via calling a HTTP URL like
http://<hostname>:<port>/manufacturing/vm/xslt?id=RouterFeed
Kr,
Erich LindHello!
I found the answer myself now.
The XLST files are part of the static web content of the MI project Visiprise.
In the SAP MII workbench go to the project Visiprise
Then under the tab Web the static contecnt can be found under the folder WEB/XSLT/.. -
Where to find the download link for the Portal BP for Payer Direct?
Can anyone tell me where to find the download for the BP for Payer Direct???
I see information about it on help.sap.com.
Also, it is mentioned in detail in the docs for the BP for Supplier Collaboration.
But I cannot find anything for it on SDN or Service Marketplace.
Thank you in advanceI finally found it in the Content Portfolio.
I was including the "" in my search...like "Payer Direct". This way was just returning every one of the BPs.
But if I search on Payer Direct without the quotes around the term, then I get the result.
In my result, it does not say License Required. I get the download icon, and it says "The license for this package is included in the mySAP ERP (P) or the mySAP SRM (P) or the SAP Financial Supply Chain Management (P) or NW User (for R/3 Users)license."
But when I click on the download link, it does not work. I get a syntax error. -

Gurus,
Where to find the documentation for renumeration type details for IT0008 in SAP Library?
I tried in HR sections under ERP of SAP Library, but could not find the place.
Thanks,Revathi,
I see an option to change the enum type in IT0008 maintenance screen.
Which simply changes section of the screen as "salary" to "pay scale" and vice versa.
I want to understand the difference between those in terms of payroll process (calculations).
Hence, I was trying to find documentation in this regard in SAP Library.
Thanks,
