Registering PSA SE 3.0 (Upgrade from 2.0)
I downloaded v3.0 as an update package through Reader. There's been a few messages on failure at Registration in this forum. When I complete all information on the registration form and hit 'Register', it says 'unable to connect to web site'.
I tried disabling my firewall, and that makes no difference.
Any ideas?

I have also had problems registering.
Even after taking the advice of disabling the MS anti-spyware I still got the error "Internet Send Failed". After the number of 'trial' uses has been exhausted it is not possible for one to use the software without registering; even if you can't register!
I've also tried to reinstall the software which doesn't make any difference.

Upgrading from BW 3.0B to BW 7.0 (Netweaver 2004s)
Introduction
This Wiki contains my teams experiences in upgrading our Business Warehouse System from 3.0B to BW 7.0.
Hopefully it will be useful to anyone else who's about to embark on this. If there's anything I've missed or got wrong, then please feel free to edit it or contact me and I'll try to explain.
Rob Moore - BW Manager, Edwards Limited.
Overview & Scope
This was to be a technical upgrade of BW only. The new BW 7.0 web functionality & tool suite which requires the Java stack rather than the ABAP stack was out of scope. We had heard that the latter was where most of the problems with the upgrade lay. Our plan is to wait for this part of BW 7.0 to become more stable. Also it has a big front end change and the business didn't have sufficient resource to cope with that much change management.
Drivers
3.0B at the end of its maintenance
Opportunities to do better reporting
Options to utilise BI Accelerator
Environment
Our R/3 system was at 4.6C and was not going to be upgraded. We have APO at version SCM4.0.
Our BW system is approximately 300 GB, with 125 global users. It was at version 3.0B SP 18
We have Development, Acceptance and Production environments.
Resource & Timescales
The Project ran for 3.5 months from Feb to May 2007. We used the following resources. The percentages are the approx. amount of their time spent on the project.
Project Manager * 1 70%
BW technical team * 3 50%
ABAP coder * 1 10%
SAP Systems Development expert * 1 20%
Basis * 1 25%
High Level Plan
These are the basic areas. We planned to complete this process for each environment in turn, learning our lessons at each stage and incorporating into revised plans for the next environment. However we did the Support Packs and Plug-Ins in quick succession on all environments to keep our full transport path open as long as possible.
Upgrade BW to the minimum support pack.

Lessons Learnt
Testing is all! We picked up on a lot of issues, but would have picked up more if we'd had a full copy of our production environment to test over.
Our approach of doing a full upgrade on each environment before moving to the next one paid dividends in giving us experience of issues and timescales.
Write everything down as you go, so that by the time you get to upgrading production you've got a complete list of what to do.
We succeeded because we had people on our team who had enough experience in Basis and BW to be able to troubleshoot issues and not just read the manual.
The SAP upgrade guide is pretty good, if you can understand what they're on about...
Remember the users! The fact that the loads have been successful doesn't count for anything unless the users can see the data in Excel! There's a tendency to get caught up in the technology and forget that it's all just a means to an end.
Issues & Fixes
I've listed the main issues that we encountered. I have not listed the various issues where Transfer rules became Inactive, DataSources needed replication or we had to reinstall some minor Business Content.
Unfixed Issues
We could not fix these issues, seems like SP 13 will help.
Cant delete individual request from ODS
After PREPARE had been run, if we had a load failure and needed to set an ODS request to Red and delete it, we found that we could not. We raised an OSS with SAP but although they tried hard we couldn't get round it. We reset the PREPARE and still the issue persisted. Ultimately we just lived with the problem for a week until we upgraded production.
Error when trying to save query to itself
Any query with a re-usable structure cannot be saved (more thsan once!)
OSS 975510 fixed the issue in Dev and Acc, but NOT in Production! SP 13 may solve this once it's released.
Warning message when running some queries post-upgrade
Time of calculation Before Aggregation is obsolete. Not a big issue so we haven't fixed this one yet!
Process Chain Scheduling Timing error
Process chains get scheduled for the NEXT day sometimes and has to be manually reset.
See OSS 1016317. Implement SP13 to fix this. We will live with it for now .
Fixed Issues
Duplicate Fiscal Period values in Query
If you open up a drop down box ("Select Filter Value") for Fiscal Year/Period to filter your query, you are presented with duplicate entries for Month & Year.
Due to Fiscal Year Period InfoObject taking data from Master Data not InfoProvider. Thus it picks up all available periods not just Z2.
Auto-Emails being delayed
Emails coming from BW from process chains are delayed 2 hours on BW before being released
Due to userids that send these emails (e.g. ALEREMOTE) being registered on a diffferent timeazone (i.e. CET) from the BW system (i.e. GMT)
Pgm_Not_Found short dump
Whenever a query is run via RRMX or RSRT
Call transaction RS_PERS_ACTIVATE to Activate History and Personalisation
Characteristics not found
When running a query the warning message Characteristic does not exist is displayed for the following: 0TCAACTVT, 0TCAIPROV, 0TCAVALID
We activated the three characteristics listed and the warnings stopped. NO need to make them authorisation-relevant at this stage.(also did 0TCAKYFNM)
System generated Z pgms have disappeared
Post-upgrade the system Z-pgms ceased to exist
Discovered in Development so we compared with pre-upgraded Production and then recreated them or copying them from production.
Conversion issues with some Infoobjects
Data fails to Activate in the ODS targets
For the InfoObjects in question, set the flag so as not to convert the Internal values for these infoobjects
InfoObject has Conversion routine that fails, causing load to fail
The routine prefixes numeric PO Numbers with 0s. SD loads were failing as it was not able to convert the numbers. Presumably the cause of the failure was the running of the Pre-Prepare RSMCNVEXIT pgm.
Check the Tick box in the Update rule to do the conversion prior to loading rather than the other way round.
Requests fail to Activate on numeric data
Request loads OK (different from above issue) but fails to Activate
Forced conversion within the update rules using Alpha routine. Deleted Request and reloaded from PSA.
Database views missing after pre-PREPARE work
Views got deleted from database, although not from data dictionary
Recreated the views in the database using SE14.
Workbook role assignations lost
We lost a few thousand workbook assignments when we transported the role they were attached to into Production
The workbooks did not exist in Development, thus they all went AWOL. We wrote an ABAP program to re-assign them in production
Regression Testing Process
Introduction
We were limited to what we could do here. We didn't have a sandbox environment available. Nor did we have the opportunity to have a replica of our production data to test with, due to lack of disk space in Acceptance and lack of sufficient Basis resource.
Set up
We manually replicated our production process chains into test. We didn't have any legacy InfoPackages to worry about. We asked our super-users for a list of their "Top 10" most important queries and did a reverse transport of the queries from Production back into test (as we do not generally have a dev/acc/prodn process for managing queries, and they are mostly created solely in prodn). We made sure every application was represented. In retrospect we should have done some Workbooks as well, although that didn't give us any problems.
Actions
Prior to the various changes we loaded data via the Process chains and ran the example queries to give ourselves a baseline of data to test against. After the change we ran the same queries again and compared the results against the baseline. We tried to keep R/3 test environments as static as possible during this, although it wasn't always the case & we often had to explain away small changes in the results. After upgrading BW Development we connected it to Acceptance R/3, so that we had pre-upgrade (BW Acceptance) and post-upgrade (BW Development) both taking data from the same place so we could compare and contrast results on both BW systems. We did the same thing once BW Acceptance had been upgrading by connecting it (carefully!) to Production R/3. To get round the lack of disk space we tested by Application and deleted the data once that Application had been signed off. Once we got to System test we involved super-users to sign off some of the testing.
Security
We chose to implement the new security schema rather than choosing the option to stick with old. For us, with a relatively small number of users we felt we could get away with this & if it all went wrong, just temporarily give users a higher level role than they needed. Our security roles are not complex: we have end user, power-user and InfoProvider roles for each BW application, together with some common default roles for all. In the event we simply modified the default "Reports" role that all our users are assigned, transported it and it all went smoothly. Apart from the fact that everyone's workbooks are assigned to this role and so we "lost" them all !
Transport Freeze
Once you've upgraded Development you've lost your transport path. We planned around this as best we could and when absolutely necessary, developed directly in Acceptance or Production, applying those changes back to Development once the project was complete. Depending on what other BW projects you have running this may or may not cause you pain!
Web Applications
Dashboards
We had various dashboards designed via Web Application Designer. All these continued to function on the upgraded system. However there were various formatting changes that occurred e.g. Bar graphs were changed to line graphs, text formats on axes changed etc. SAP provides an upgrade path for moving your Web applications by running various functions. However we took the view that we would simply re-format our dashboards manually, as we didn't have very many to do. Plus the external IGS (see below) powered all our environments and needs upgrading separately as part of the SAP method. Thus we couldn't have tested the SAP path in Development without risking Production. Sticking with manual mods was a lower risk approach for us. We did find we had to re-activate some templates from BC to get some of the reports to continue to work.
Internet Graphics Server (IGS)
We had an external IGS server with v3.0B. Post-upgrade the IGS becomes part of the internal architecture of BW and thge external server is redundant. We found no issues with this; after the upgrade BW simply stops using the external IGS and no separate config was needed.

Excel file error after upgrade from 2010 to 2013
Hi there,
I did the upgrade from 2010 (Enterprise) to 2013. The excel files are not opening giving error.
ULS Log: "Unexpected error when trying to access service settings in the configuration database. Make sure the proxy for this service application is a member of the default proxy group for the active web application. Error = ExcelServerWebServiceApplication.Local:
Could not get the web application associated with this context. This indicates that the Excel Server service is not properly registered or provisioned.."
Question : Do I need to create New Excel Service Application separately on SharePoint 2013 Server?
I followed this link for upgrade
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj839719.aspx but it doesn't say anything for Excel SA.
Note: I have plan to configure separate Office APP Server to give user access the documents on iPad/iPhone. Should I need to do any configuration related to this error on Office App Server?
Please advice.
Thanks,
KhushiHi Khushi ,
Yes, you need to create New Excel Service Application separately on SharePoint 2013 Server. Due to only the following service applications have databases that can be upgraded when you upgrade from SharePoint
Server 2010 to SharePoint Server 2013:
Business Data Connectivity service application
Managed Metadata service application
PerformancePoint Services service application
Search service application
Secure Store Service application
User Profile service application
Attaching and upgrading these databases configures these service applications. Settings for other services will have to be reconfigured when you upgrade.
Reference:
Services upgrade overview for SharePoint Server 2013
For configuring Office Web Apps Server , you can refer to the blog:

Just upgraded from OS 10.3.9 to 10.4: Safari problems
I just upgraded from Mac OS 10.3.9 to Tiger 10.4; everything is working fine, except as follows:
1. Software Update does not work. It seems that it tries to connect to the Apple servers (I can see the router and modem lights blinking), but a connection does not take place (the lights blink a couple of times every few seconds).
2. Safari connects without any problems to this and other Apple Support forums, but not to any of the bookmarks in the Bookmarks menu.
Also, I believe that I may have caused the problem, and will give the details hoping that my problems with Safari may help others solve theirs. I may have made a mistake right after "upgrading" to OS 10.4, specifically after the required restart.
When my iMac G5 restarted, a registration form showed on the screen. The form was the data on my account. My account is not an Administrator account, but a "User" account instead. There was an option to change the account's "User's name," so I went ahead and slightly changed it by adding a "dot" to my first name initial (I don't use my first name, just my initial).
-The old account name was as follows: R
-So I changed the account name by adding a "dot" (.) right after the initial, to look as follows: R.
Right after making the change, I had the option to immediately connect to Apple and REGISTER, however, a connection could not be established or the computer was not responding, so I clicked on "Register Later" and quit.
Mail works fine, and so the DSL modem and router. I can access this forum, but Safari tries but can't to connect to other forums.
Do you think that by changing the User Account's name I may have screwed things up? I have tried MS's Explorer, but it too shows the same problems.
Any ideas on what to do at this point?Steven: I know that the problems I had with Safari is not similar to yours, but I ended erasing the hard drive and reinstalling Tiger four times (I have posted the full story in a couple of Apple forums).
On the pre-final try i removed the router from the computer and only used the DSL modem. However, I decided to use Safari between Software updates, and again Safari stopped working, as well as Software Update. I had removed every USB and Firewire cable, set-up the network to stay active without interruptions, set the computer to stay awake forever, the screen to stay awake for over three hours, and the hard drive to stay awake.
Then on the final erasing/installing, I made sure that I didn't use Safari until every little update was finished all the way to a complete Mac OS 10.4.2. Once that was accomplished I used Safari, and I have been using it since.
A friend of mine is upgrading the router's firmware, just in case that was par t of the problem, but I don't think it was, since the router was out of the picture on the pre-final session.
I believe that for some reason OS 10.4 screwed the Network panel functions. If you just look at the settings they seem to be OK, but not really. The problem may be related to the G5 CPU and how Mac OS 10.4 works with it. While I was having a myriad of network problems, I could connect to the Internet, retrieve my mail, etc. using my son's Mini, as well as an old Mac 7300. Both of these worked just fine connected to the network (router and DSL). Only my iMac G5 would not work. -
Upgrading from Illustrator 10: CS2 or CS3? (CS4 and CS5 do not run on my Mac)
Provided I'm able to find a legitimate copy of the upgrade version from a reputable source, which one is the highest Mac version that one can upgrade from Illustrator 10? CS2 or CS3? Higher versions won't run on my PPC Mac anyway.
I'm asking now because I just finished upgrading my ancient Acrobat Standard 5.x to Acrobat Professional 8 for under $29, shipped. It turned out to be a sealed, unopened box, and I've registered it with Adobe already and collected the registration incentive received from Adobe (11 hours of training at lynda.com).
Any input will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Wo Tai Lao Le
我太老了CS4 requires OS10.4.11 or newer.
Basically, you can go all the way to CS4 or anything short of that. Without moving past the PPC chip and OS10.4.11.
Since CS4 will work, CS3 will certainly work. I believe CS3 required OS 10.4.8 or newer. Checking my disk.... yup 10.4.8 or newer. I would simply look for whatever you can find, short of CS5. That itself may sort out what you can purchase.
Actually thinking upgrades.. you're right. Only 3 versions. So for "upgrade" you're limited to CS3 from Ai10. CS3 will run great on a PPC with 10.4.11. I'd search for that if possible. I wouldn't settle for CS2. -
Please can someone tell me why I cannot reinstall my upgrade from lightroom 4 (lightroom 3 installed off disc with serial no) my hard drive crashed, and I am trying to get lightroom 3; 4 and 5 back on so that I can link my catalogues and continue work. I cannot install lightroom 5 until the upgrades from 4 are on the pc, (lightroom 3 installed off disc but 4 is a copy of the upgrade download I got when I bought it) These serial no's are legit and are registered under my account with adobe, but it still gives me the Big Red Cross when I put my serial no in! Please can someone help. I am at a loss. Thx Heidi

You don't need to have Lightroom 3 and 4 installed on your computer to install Lightroom 5. Just install Lightroom 5 and input your serial number for 3 in the previous version box and your serial number for 5 in the upgrade box. -
Mavericks use super high memory after upgraded from 2008 early
I suffered this pain after I upgraded from 10.7 to 10.9 on my early 2008 MacBook Pro.
Just as image shown above, I don't know what reason will cause this problem. It usually gets high with unknown operation.
I only get 4G memory. After I start 10.9, its kernel process and finder process consume almost 2/3 memory, it is so reduclous.
Is there any way I can reduse the memory usage of finder or prevent it eats memory so high ?arthur, thank you,
I do worry about it, because 4G is not enough any more for these memory monster =.=
They together eat almost 3.99 GB memory, so that Mac becomes slow and shows SBBOD a lot and not responsive for many many seconds. It slow down my daily work a lot.

How do I upgrade from Design Collection?
I've been using Mac OSX10.3.9 via Quicksilver 1.4 PowerPC with 2g's RAM/120g HD. My system ( knock on wood ) is running well with Font Agent Pro 3.x and an HP Designjet 10ps. This setup is a good three years old. No problems proofing, web authoring, page layouts, blah, blah, blah. I've been hesitant in upgrading to CS apps and ignored CS1, CS2, CS3. But, because I am a design studio, I receive CS3 files. I'd like to keep the operating system ( because of its ability to access OS9 apps ) for as long as I can. I'm on a very limited budget and have an existing Educator version of the Design Collection ( Illus. 10, PS7, ID2 ). Question: where can I buy an unopened box of the CS2 Design Premium? I'm not ready for CS3, I'm going to wait until I get new Apple hardware for that transition. Thanks for your help.
> So, you suggest bypassing CS2 and upgrading to CS3?
It's not so much a suggestion but very strong advice based on many posts
from people who've been taken by software pirates.
You say you have academic versions now. But they're pretty old and I'm
going to guess that you don't have that kind of eligibility anymore so
you really need to buy an upsell version since you don't have a suite to
upgrade from.
I've got a page on my website where I at least attempt to unravel a lot
of this stuff. You can read it here:
http://www.theindesignguy.com/puchase-advice.html
BTW, I'll secong Mike's suggestion. You're going to get a good deal more
bang for the buck out of a mid range Windows box. I'm running CS3 on
Vista 64 here and everything runs great. A side benefit is that
Photoshop CS4 will be available in 64 bit for Windows Vista only. You'll
need a boatload of RAM to notice the difference but it will be great if
you're working on very large images.
Again, keep a very close eye on Adobe's September 23 announcement to see
what the upgrade policy will be. If the past is any indication (and it
may or may not be) if you buy CS3 after the announcement it might
include an upgrade to CS4 when it ships.
You can register for the webcast announcing CS4 here:

Upgrade from Mini6 to Classic 160
Before I plug anything in, I want to find out the best way to upgrade from my Mini6 to a new Classic 160? I want to retain my library, podcast subscriptions, playlists etc. Basically I want my new iPod to mirror my old one, except with a larger library.
Any tips woudl be appreciated.....You just need to connect your new iPod. If the songs you had on your previous iPod are still in iTunes they will load onto your new one. Follow the onscreen instructions to register and name your iPod, when that is done you'll be asked if you want it to update automatically from iTunes, choose yes if you do. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like

How do I upgrade from final cut 5.1 to final cut 5.1.4?
I wanted to upgrade from final cut studio 5.1 to 5.1.4 because it doesn't recognise my camera JVC HD111E or the format I have used 730p 25 frame. 5.1 codecs are extremely limited. However my Mac doesn't see that I need this update when I go to software update. Downloaded it from idisk public folder after advice from apple support but this won't install. Have tried other ways such as buying a Lumiere HD plug in but this doesn't work either. Please help!
Welcome to the discussions, saiga. From Wales, eh? Lovely country, that.
You've registered the software, right? And you've not moved any programs or renamed them? Have you tried re-installing FCP?

I am looking into an upgrade for my company's Acrobat software from Acrobat 9 to XI Standard. All of the licenses for Acrobat 9 are OEM, and my IT consultant (and CDW) are informing me that I cannot upgrade from OEM, that I must purchase brand-new licenses. Adobe CSRs tell me different, so I am looking for a third opinion. Do I need to buy new licenses or can I purchase software upgrades (the difference is several thousands of dollars)? Thanks in advance!
It sounds like you want a volume license and it may be cheaper to negotiate with Adobe for a reasonable volume license, possibly based on the OEM installations. You may still need the license numbers for the OEM installations. If they were registered, you can get the license number by logging into your Adobe account (or that of the person who registered) and check your software list.
