Publication Help - PLEASE

I have 19 reports that get sent to approx 186 different email addresses, each report can go to multiple emails and each email address can receive multiple reports. End result is approximately 7400 monthly instances and 12000 weekly instances.
Most of the reports have parameters, some static, some dynamic, some have none. Of the reports that are dynamic.... the prompt for clientclass is on almost all of the reports asking for prompts.
I have created a dynamic recipient universe/webi report that has the recipient email address as they are all external contacts and not set up in BO. This includes facility code, facility name, recipient name & recipient email.
I am getting ready to create a publication and here is my question.... is the best way to go at this at the report or email address level... meaning... should i create a publication for each report with a profile for the dynamic recipients or for each email recipeint???
Also... does timeframe matter, some are monthly some are weekly, can that be handled in one publication, also some pdf, some excel???
For example... I have
1 report for 32 facilities goes to 45 different emails can be either monthly or weekly
1 report for 63 facilities goes to 88 different emails can be either monthly or weekly
OR
1 person gets 3 reports for 9 different facilities can be either monthly or weekly
etc....
Just trying to figure out the most efficient way of setting this up as I have been in the XI closet for years now.
I know this is probably pretty basic but I am at a pretty archaic company with little change over the years and we are just now attempting to upgrade all our systems to 3.1.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Tracy - I was able to delete the subscription on the publication server and was able to recreate most of the subscription on the subscription server but so far have been unable to start the subscription agent. 
I ran the command exec sp_link_publication yesterday and received the error: "The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) service could not be contacted. If you would like distributed transaction functionality, please start this service." 
WTF? Anyhow - Googled this issue for awhile and was advised to run a command with a utility called subinacl.exe but the command failed stating that access is denied even though i'm an admin on my computer & I ran the command promp with elevated privileges. 
I also downloaded a tool called DTCping.exe and was able to dtcping each server when the utility was running on the publication & subscription servers after tweaking some registry settings on the subscription server & restarting. 
Well now i'm still stuck because the subscription agent is failing to start stating (this is the last error in the job that kicks off the agent): 
Agent message code 21056. The subscription to publication 'publish_igt_period_data' has expired or does not exist.
Whew! Well i have other priorities this morning but will update this thread if I make any progress on this issue later...

    I keep being asked to update my Safari but when I do a Software update it scans but never gives me a list and just says no new updates. Help please!

    There are no updates to either OS 10.5.8 or Safari 5.0.6.
    If you need a later version of Safari you must first upgrade your operating system to a later version of OS X.

    @puebloryan, I realize this thread is a bit old, but I have encountered a similr problem and wondered if you had found a solution. I've been using home sharing from itines on my PCs for years, but two days ago, it suddenly stopped. I can share from my Macs, but not from the ONE PC library where I keep all my tunes. I tried all the usual trouble-shooting measures.
    After turning home sharing off on the PC's iTunes, turning it back on and turning some other settings off and on, my Macs and Apple TV could briefly "see" the PC library, but as soon as I try to connect -- the wheel spins for a bit and then the connection vanishes. It's as if they try and then give up.
    Since this sounds so similar to your problem, I was hoping you finally found a solution. I am also starting a new thread. Thanks!

  • Photoshop Elements 6 on Mac help please !!!!!

    Hi there,
              I need help please !!!!!
    I have PSE 6 for my imac and bought myself a NIKON D60 so far so good. I have installed PSE 6 which comes with ADOBE Bridge CS3
    I have bought a book as well as I am new to photoshop and in fact DSLR cameras.
    I have got my photos into Bridge OK by the way they are JPEG format. According to the book I can open the JPEG in camera RAW by either selecting the JPEG and then pressing cmd+R or by selecting the JPEG and select open with and camera RAW should be available to selct.
    I cannot get of the options to work any ideas please
    Secondly I have taken some photos in RAW format and put then into Bridge again I cannot get the camera RAW interface to open with these neff images.
    If I try to open the image PSE 6 opens and gives me an error that the file format is not supported by PSE 6
    Am I missing something here as I have been trying for a week now !!!!!
    Sorry if this comes across a stupid question but it is new to me
    Chris      UK

    There's no "theory" about it. You should be able to open a raw file from bridge by double-clicking it, but it will open in ACR in PSE. You can't just use ACR within bridge in PSE, if that's what you're trying to do. To open a JPEG in ACR, go to file>Open in PSE and choose Camera raw as the format after you select the file but before you click Open.
    If you've correctly updated ACR, bridge should show you thumbnails of your raw files. If it doesn't try emptying the Bridge cache.

  • Photoshop CS2. Help please.

    Approx 8 years ago I purchased Photoshop CS2 online from Adobe. This past weekend I had to buy a new computer (Windows 8.1), and when I logged into my Adobe account just now to obtain my serial number and enter it after I attempted to download CS2, it said invalid serial number. Help please.
    Both tech support and the online chat person were not able to help me.

    The Activation Servers for CS2 and prior have been taken down. See the link below for an explanation and solution. Be sure to follow all directions, including using the new download serial number supplied on the page.

  • Creative live cam voice help please

    Help please,
    We are using the "live cam voice" model, with our computer (Vista 32bit), that appears to work OK, but after a few minutes we get the BSOD! We have tried un installing and re-installing drivers without any effect.Has anyone had this problem and if so how did you fix it.
    Regards,
    Arthur

    Thanks for your response. I have tried 3 ports so far, all with the same outcome. One of my sons had it happen to him on another computer (XP SP2) using this webcam . As to programmes open at the same time, I am not computer literate and have no idea what programmes were running on each occasion.We use the webcam for Skype and apart from that I may also have IE open and perhaps Outlook Express. Over and above those CS4 sometimes.
    If I cannot resolve this, can any one suggest another webcam please.

  • My ipad just won't let me enter my apple password on FaceTime or iMessage, it works fine on my iPhone, I have tried numerous things but nothing works, can anybody help please, will a bug fix sort this out when they finally make one

    My ipad just won't let me sign in with my apple password on FaceTime or iMessage since updating to ios7 it says check my network connection, even though my iPhone works fine with the same password, can anybody help please, I have tried numerous things but nothing  works.  Will I have to wait for a bug fix to sort this? I hear they are working on one a the minute, I hate ios7

    Try a Restart.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • I have had to change my email address/Apple ID. my iPad recognisIes the change of id but on my MacBook Air, iCloud just keeps asking me for a password for the old email address/account. How can I get iCloud to recognise the new details? Help please!

    I have had to change my email address/Apple ID. My iPad recognises the new detail in iTunes and iCloud but when I go into iCloud through my MacBook Air, it requests a password for the old email account which I can no longer use. There is no Option to be able to change this email/ID detail as I cannot get further than the password request. Can anyone help please - this is driving me insane?!

    Go to System Preferences and click Sign Out, select Delete at all the prompts, then sign back in with the changed ID?   (Your iCloud data will disappear from your Mac when you sign out and choose Delete, but will still be in iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account your data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.)

    I made a dumb decision to 'Erase Free Space' on my drive. I now have no free space, I realize because it wrote 0's over all my free space. Is there a way to undo this??? Help please I can't save any documents now! Thanks in advance all, it is truly appreciated. how can find the hidden temporary files using the terminal what do i type in?

    It's more likely a failed Erase Free Space, which creates a huge temporary file; that's why it looks like you have no more available drive space. You can recover from this. See these links
