Prevent Excel from recalculating when refreshing a query within a workbook

Hello,
I have a BEx workbook with 4 queries and a significant number of Excel formulas retrieving and rearranging query data.
**The issue**:
When Excel>Tool>Options>Calculation is set to "Automatic" (as it should be in normal situations), refreshing anyone query takes about 2 hours.
When Excel>Tool>Options>Calculation is set to "Manual", refreshing anyone query takes about 2 minutes.
Therefore I conclude that BEx does not prevent Excel from recalculating during a query refresh and this cause unacceptable delays.
**Question**
Is there any way to prevent to temporarily prevent Excel from recalculating during a query refresh ?
Thank you.
Louis

I have a star schema, ie 5 FACT tables and 7 dimension tables, All fact tables share the same dimension tables, some FACT tables share 3 dimesnsions, while other share 5 dimensions.  
I did adopt the best practices, and as recommended in the book, I tried to resolve them using Context, as it is the recommended option to Alias in a star schema setting.  The contexts are resolved, but I still have loops.  I also cleared the Multiple SQL Statement for each context option, but no luck.  I need to get this resoved ASAP,
I checked all the context and they look fine, however when I again go to detect context it asks me to add the context which is already present.  It give me an option to overwrite?  Besides, I also get some Alias options.  However I was told and it was mentioned in the book that Alias is not a good option to resolve loops but context is when you have a STAR SCHEMA.
Please suggest idea.

    When you connect the device open iTunes and select it from the sidebar. Click on the Summary tab in the main window. Uncheck the option to automatically connect to iTunes. You will find it in the collection of options near the lower part of the window.

  • How do I prevent Mail from opening when I click an email address in Safari?

    My wife and I both use Yahoo! Mail. Neither of us uses the Mail app to manage our email. How do I prevent Mail from opening when we click an email address in Safari?  Is it possible to direct Safari to open a separate web browser prompting us to log in to our Yahoo! Mail?

    Hmm.. probably not.
    You want to open Mail. Then go into Preferences > General and you will see something similar to this:
    In the area marked Default Mail reader click on the pull down and at the bottom of the list it will say Other. You can see if you can select Safari here and if that will open up Safari.
    Good luck.

  • How do I prevent iTunes from opening when I pug in my iPod?

    How do i prevent tunes from opening when i plug in my ipod?

    This will occur when there are photos and/or videos in the Camera Roll, which should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
    Depending on the iPhoto version you are running, this can be done via iPhoto preferences > connected camera opens > select no application.

  • Refresh individual queries within a workbook in SP20 EHp1 System

    Hi,
    Currently we have upgraded our BI system to EHP1 pack for SP20. Now we are in BI7.01. We have found in SAP release notes for EHP1 like " in BEX 7 analyzer we will able to Refresh individual queries within a workbook:".
    Can you please tell me how to acheive that, as when we are trying to do it refreshes all the sheets.
    Also in Global settings tab " Allow single data provider refresh" is disabled. Kindly tell me step by step procedure to acheive this,
    Thanks

    Hi Krishna,
    Really thanks for your instructions. We have enabled hte "refresh on individual workbooks" in the workbook settings tab adn we are able to see the same in the context menu of the analysis grid.
    Again i have few doubts.
    I can able to see two options as below.
    1. Refresh
    2. Refresh this query.
    What is the difference between this two?. Also when i click the "refresh this query" it shud display the "selections screen of the particular query", But it is not at all showing me a selection screen,
    What i am doing is.. I am simply doing "refresh this query" option that will refresh my screen first adn i am doing change variables.
    That will give me the selection screen of the particular query. If i am not doing so, all workbooks are refreshing,
    Please advice, whether selection screen of the particular query can be shown when clicking "refresh this query".
    Thanks/

  • How can I prevent iPhoto from launching when I insert an SD card

    I recently upgraded to a new iMac retina and am having trouble disabling iPhoto from launching when an SD card is inserted.
    I have gone to iPhoto setting and disabled iPhoto from launching when a camera is connected.
    I have also gone into image capture and selected no application as the hidden option for SD card actions when inserted.
    Unfortunately the issue persists... two questions: can I do a terminal level disable to prevent iPhoto from launching or can I remove iPhoto from my computer?

    Have you tried this?
    Open the Image Capture app
    Select your SD Card
    Click the little widget in the bottom right corner of the window
    Select the program to launch, or "No application"
    it worked for me

    how can i prevent this from happening? it always slows down my computer.
    any help will be appreciated.
    thanks

    Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) - In the preferences you can decide to 'Do Nothing' when a camera is connected.

  • How to prevent computer from sleeping when downloading Lion from the recovery partition?

    Hello,
    I just got a new MacBook Pro that came with Lion. I'm reinstalling from the recovery partition and I'm on the downloading additional components stage. It has 3 hours to go and the computer keeps going to sleep. How can I prevent this? I don't want to have to babysit the computer for 3 more hours.
    Thanks.

    Looking for an answer to this question now.  Did you find one?  I'm about an hour into a 6+ hour reinstall of Mountain Lion from the Recovery partition on my MacBook Pro.  So I can't change the sleep corners or caffenate it or do much of anything but wait.   I want to go to bed and let it install overnight, but I assume it will go to sleep, and that will kill the download.  It there any way to prevent it from sleeping now? 
    Even trying to think of something I can put on the trackpad to trick it into thinking I'm touching it.
    Maybe ill put it under my dog, and her movements will keep it awake?  Thinking outside the box here.
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

  • Prevent iPhoto from opening when iPhone is connected?

    Does anyone know if there is a way to keep iPhoto from opening when my iPhone is connect BUT do the opposite when my digital still cam is connected? I like having iPhone auto-launch for my canon cam, but not when I connect the iPhone.

    I believe I've come across an article by someone who set up a script to run when a camera is connected, and the script detects what kind of camera and then launches or not launches iPhoto as desired. Yeah, here it goes:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20080301133957211
    Seems overkill to me---I find it easy enough to manually launch iPhoto when I connect a camera, but hey, to each their own.

  • How to prevent applet from InterruptedException when the page is refreshed

    Hi Guys,
    Is there a way we can prevent an applet from being interrupted when the user navigates away or refreshes the page ?
    I am getting the below error whenever the user invokes the applet and navigates away or refreshes the frame.
    My requirement is the make the applet complete it action before it is destroyed or stopped.
    I am not sure if this problem is due to new java life cycle. I tried setting the legacy_lifetime=true and I got the same error or java.io.IOException when legacy_lifecycle=true

    An applet cannot access the client's filesystem. So there's no worry. All the .class files come from the server, unless you're using a ClassLoader to explicitly load from a certain location in clients hd with all the necessary security permissions.

  • My address book and iPhone pics have become low resolution.  Is there a way I can prevent this from happening when I start out with a higher resolution picture?

    I guess I squeezed my entire issue into the subject line.  lol   When I sync my iphone to my laptop I notice that all my address book pics and iphone pics have become lower resolution, even though I started out with the resolution that I really needed to produce decenty address book printouts.  I doubt I can correct the losses of resolution that have occurred but can anyone help me figure out how to prevent future losses?  Thank you!

    Plugins usually are installed externally to Firefox. However, you can disable them in Firefox so that Firefox does not use them.
    SearchReset is supposed to automate the task of resetting certain preferences, but you still can edit them manually if necessary.
    '''''Address Bar Search'''''
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''keyword''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Right-click '''keyword.URL''' and choose Reset. This should restore Google as the default for address bar search.
    Does that work?
    '''''Search Box'''''
    Usually it works to choose your preferred search engine from the drop-down. To remove an unwanted search engine plugin, usually the Manage Search Engines... choice at the bottom of the drop-down takes care of it.
    Do either of those work?
    There might be another way to hijack that search box; I think some of the other frequent responders probably are more familiar with it than I am.

  • How to prevent iTunes from launching when iPad is connected?

    I don't want iTunes 11.0.1 to launch every time I connect my iPad (3rd generation, running iOS 6.0.1) to my Mini. I want to decide if I want iTunes, and then, if I do, launch it manually. How may this be accomplished?
    Notes:
    1.  iTunes .. Preferences .. Devices ==> "Prevent ... from syncing automatically" is UNchecked.
    2.  (in iTunes while connected) iPad .. Summary .. Options ==> "Open iTunes when this iPad is connected" is UNchecked.
    3.  When iTunes auto-launches, it does NOT sync. It "mounts" the iPad and then sits idle.
    TIA for any ideas,
    Mark

    Found the answer via Bing:
    http://www.brighthub.com/computing/hardware/articles/72004.aspx
    With the iPad connected and (at least in my case) iTunes NOT running, start the program "Image Capture" (mine is version 6.1). In the lower left will be a label "Connecting this iPad opens:" and below that label is a drop-down box which, in my case, was set to iTunes (don't ask me how), and I have since changed to "No application".
    Gee, that was obvious.

    Hi Radium88,
    You can prevent your MacBook Pro from going to sleep using the steps in this article -

  • How do I prevent Elements from launching when I connect a flash drive?

    When I connect a flash drive or SD card to my computer, Photoshop Elements automatically launches a component to save and organize my photos. I already have a system in place to organize my pictures so do not want to use the one from Elements. How do I prevent the program from launching automatically?

      On Windows go to the Control Panel >> AutoPlay
    And change your settings to “Always Ask” for photos and videos and save.
    If your camera, phone or other devices are listed at the bottom you can also change those settings.
