Running two displays from one DVI port...time to put my ADC down

Hi Guys,
I have a G5 dual with a GeForce FX 5200 which has 1 each of DVI+ADC ports. Until recently the 17" Apple display has been my only monitor. As I have a recording/mix studio I need to move the G5 base unit far away from any recording as it makes quite a lot of noise. I have been unable to do this as I have been having trouble finding either a Dr Bott or Griffin ADC extension. I have been searching off and on for over a year with no success.
Recently I purchased a cheap reconditioned NEC monitor which I am running from the DVI port and am thinking perhaps now is the time to get rid of my apple display due to the ADC connection troubles.
Is it possible to run two monitors from the one DVI port? I need to run a mirrored image so that I have one monitor to my side so that I can do close editing work and then one further away behind my analogue mixing desk, they need to show exactly the same thing.
Will splitting the DVI port degrade signal or is there a way around this. I also want to get some long cables 6m+ so that I can place the base unit outside of the control room, will this be a problem?
I would really appreciate some help on this matter.
Thanks,
Iwan

Thanks BSteely, Would you happen to know of a box to recommend? I guess something like this would be more suitable:

HT1347 How do I run two libraries from one computer?

How do I run two libraries from one computer? One library is on the computer's hard drive, the second library is on an external hard drive. The computer that had the external hard drive crashed and I need to fix the iTunes library on it. How can I do this without corrupting the library on my internal hard drive?

Launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and either create a new library or choose the one on the external drive. Any rented movies downloaded from another computer won't play.

Running two displays from MBP Retina under windows

I'm looking at purchasing a MBP Retina 13". I have two external monitors that can accept HDMI and DVI (neither can do displayport). Some software that I run requires me to sometimes boot into windows. Under windows 7, can I output a DVI signal from each of my thunderbolt ports? Do I just need to run two mini-displayport to DVI adapters? Or is not that simple? (both external monitors are 1900x1080)

Hi,
read the documentation:

and you will find multiple errors, you probably did.
Especially the part on preparing storage.

Running two iPods from one PC

I have a 3G 20Gb iPod that I've been running for over a year with iTunes on one PC.
For Christmas my brother has got a 4Gb Nano.
We have totally different tastes in music...
Can we operate two seperate iTunes on the same PC so that I can sync my iPod against my existing iTunes and so he can start to use his Nano totally independantly of mine, importing and syncing via a totally new iTunes?

Sure!

Run two monitors from my 15-inch MacBook Pro (Non-retina, mid 2012)?

I'm looking to run two monitors from my 15-inch MacBook Pro (Non-retina, mid 2012). I don't want to use the actual laptop screen in this setup, I just want to use the two external monitors.
My 15-inch MacBook Pro (Non-retina, mid 2012) has the following ports on the side:
FireWire 800 port (up to 800 Mbps)
Two USB 3 ports (up to 5 Gbps)
Thunderbolt port (up to 10 Gbps)
I currently use the Thunderbolt port to one external monitor.
My question is: Is it better to run the second monitor via USB 3, or FireWire (if that's even possible)? What would you recommend?

See -> http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/gxm/dh2go/digital_me/.
Good and simple way to get two monitors from one Thunderbolt port.

When I have two clips, one above the other, I would like to hear the audio from one at a time. How do I suppress temporarily one of that, in a easier way? Thank you.

When I have two clips, one above the other, I would like to hear the audio from one at a time. How do I suppress temporarily one of that, in a easier way? Thank you.

I would think you would drop down the audio level lines in the "Stereo" tab (FCP 6.0.6 view to me) in the clip's video window.
But then again, in my old version, I can't play two clips at once. But I figure if the newer FCP allow you to do that, then that's what I would do.

Booting two Macs from one external drive: 10.8 and App Store?

I boot two Macs from one external harddrive. Does this mean that when 10.8 is sold exclusively via the App Store and thereby linked to a unique hardware identifier, I am going to have issues with activation/authentification each time I switch machines? I have avoided the App Store since I discovered that an app I bought there, and which I really needed to open automatically on log-in, had to be manually re-activated with my Apple ID after every switch (so that I eventually deleted it and reverted to an earlier, non-App Store version).

Welcome to the forum!
There are a couple of "solutions" to your problem. The easiest, and possibly the best for you (although it is a bit slower) is to copy your catalog onto the external drive as well.
Then when you plug in the drive, you will always have your latest catalog for access.
The other way is to keep a local copy of your catalog, and copy it onto the local drive as a way to transfer it from one computer to the other.
This has the problem of possibly not being in sync, that is, you forgot to copy it over once and did some editing. Then you would end up with essentually two different catalogs, instead of one in two places.
You can copy the catalog either with your OS, or you can "export as catalog" and specify the external drive as the destination. Then, on your other computer, "import from catalog" and only take the meta-data settings (it's on the import dialog box).
Personally, when I'm traveling, I have my catalog on my external drive as well. It just makes life easier, and I don't have to worry about it being out of sync, or losing it (and not the images).
So, I would go with the first method, at least to start. To get your catalog over there, you can either export as catalog or copy it, either one will work.
You can find the location of your catalog file (if you don't know where it is) in the catalog settings menu prompt. Both the location and the name will be displayed.
Cheers!

Run multiple VI from one VI...

Hi,
How can I do to run multipe VIs from one VI ?
I can start one of them but I have to stop it before run an other one.
Thanks.

You are not very clear on your needs. In my particuliar case I have 12 separate VI running within a subpanel. Attached contains the VI. They are independent yet dependent on each other.

Multiple Monitor Setup for HPE-180t w/ NVIDIA GeForce GT 220 (only one DVI port)

I am wanting to connect mutliple montitors via DVI connection to my HPE-180t. My graphics card is the NVIDIA GeForce GT 220 which has 3 ports (VGA, HDMI, DVI) and does support mutli monitor display. What is the best way for me to connect multiple monitors to my desktop? I would like for all of them to be connected via DVI.
Thank you so much,
Angela
``````````````````````````````````````````
old computer: HP Pavilion PU131AV / a1050y, Windows XP MCE, SP3 32bit, Nvidia GeForce 6600, Intel Pentium 4 CPU, 3.20 GHz, 2GB of RAM
new computer: HPE-180t, Windows 7 Pro (64bit), Nvidia GeForce GT 220, Intel Core i7-930 quad-core CPU @ 2.80 GHz, 8GB of RAM

What is the end goal you are attempting to acheive? Are you looking to clone all three monitors or each monitor to be independent of the other (extended display)?
This document covers how to configure the monitors in Windows 7. I didn't see the GT 220 listed in the specifications, so I take it this is one purchased separately for the unit. Most video cards require multiple monitors to be connected to a different port (to truly achieve a multiple monitor setup). Since the card only has one DVI port, then the other ports (HDMI and VGA will need DVI adapters). An example of an HDMI - DVI adapter can be found here.
The tricky part will be using the VGA - DVI adapter as DVI ports are typically DVI-D which makes it a pure digital signal. VGA is analog, so the adapter will need to be special if the monitor is using a DVI-D port. If it is a DVI-A or DVI-I port, then a standard VGA - DVI adapter will work. If it is a DVI-D port, you will need an active VGA - DVI adapter. If it is DVI-A/I, then a passive adapter will work. This is an example of an Active VGA - DVI adapter. For that adapter, a VGA cable will need to be connected to the VGA port with that end connected to the VGA side of the adapter and then being connected to the DVI port of the monitor.
Provided the video card supports 3 monitors, this would allow all monitors to have a DVI connection. Keep in mind that the VGA port will still deliver an analog signal as opposed to the DVI and HDMI ports. The card specifications do not really say how many monitors it supports, but it most likely does support three monitors.

Call two programs from one program.

HI all,
I have two BDC interface in seperate programs.
I want to call that two programs from one program based on a condition.
Is there any way.
I tried with call transaction 'SE38'.
set parameter ID but it is taking buffered value.
Thanks,
sri

use submit program to call other program.
SUBMIT prog|(field) [AND RETURN] [options].
also if you want BDC prog, then probably you can call the BDC recording using PERFORM bdc_prog (in program name).
PERFORM (<fsubr>)[IN PROGRAM (<fprog>)][USING   ... <pi>... ]
                                       [CHANGING... <pi>... ]
                                       [IF FOUND].

How to run two applications from same application server

hi,
i am working on oracle application server 10g , is it possible to run 2 applications from one application server by using different url ? but same report server name .
if i can do so plz tell me how ?
regards

hi,
offcourse,you can do this you.you can deploy n no of applications on a single application server.
and even you can run all the reports on a single report server
to the below location.
$ORACLE_HOME/forms/server
create a new enviroment file(for eg fd.env) using the default.env as follows and make the following FORM_PATH and REPORTS_PATH changes in the fd.env
FORMS_PATH=/oraApp/Ora_bi/forms:/oraApp/backup_29_11_2010_0.12/fd/pll:/oraApp/backup_29_11_2010_0.12/fd/forms
REPORTS_PATH=/oraApp/backup_29_11_2010_0.12/fd/reports
similarily create another env file (eg appr.env) and make the above changes in it.
Now make the following changes in formsweb.cfg
for example:
[xyz]
envFile=appr.env(env file name)
form=xyz.fmx(your start form)
lookandfeel=oracle
separateFrame=false
userid=appraisal/[email protected]
splashscreen=NO
logo=NO
background=NO
color=automatic
render=yes
archive=frmall.jar
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar,ofasIcons.jar,icons.jar,OfasPrint.jar,newicons.jar(these jar file are the images files of your applications..needs to be stored in $ORACLE_HOME/forms/java.
imagebase=codebase
term=frmpcweb.res
baseHTML=webutilbase.htm
baseHTMLjinitiator=webutiljini.htm
baseHTMLjpi=webutiljpi.htm
WebUtilArchive=frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar
[fd]
envFile=fd.env
form=fd.fmx
lookandfeel=oracle
separateFrame=true
userid=fdmmfsl/fdmmfsl@mmfdlive
splashscreen=NO
logo=NO
background=NO
color=automatic
render=yes
archive=frmall.jar
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar,icons.jar
imagebase=codebase
term=frmpcweb.res
baseHTML=webutilbase.htm
baseHTMLjinitiator=webutiljini.htm
This depends on your application which your deploying
now for about accessing the seperate application then
use as follows
1st application
http://ip address:7778/forms/frmservlet?config=xyz
2nd application
http://ip address:7778/forms/frmservlet?config=fd
you can even deploy 2 war files on one application server...and you can even make these 2 war files to access the same report server
If you require any other help then do let me know

My iPhone just loaded 1600 emails dating back over two years from one of my accounts. Is there a way to "mark all as read"?

My iPhone just loaded 1600 emails dating back over two years from one of my accounts. Is there a way to "mark all as read"?

Your Comcast accounts are POP (unless you enrolled in the Comcat Beta test of Imap) so they won't sync at all. Either enroll in the Beta test or don't use Comcast.
Your iCloud account is Imap and should sync just fine, unless you have set it up incorrectly.

HT4505 I have 4 accounts on my Mac Pro running Mavericks. From one account I can scan with my Epson NX420, but the other three accounts do not see the scanner. Can print from all accounts.

Sorry, I was not given the option of posting to a Maverics community. I have 4 accounts on my Mac Pro running Mavericks. From one account I can scan with my Epson NX420, but the other three accounts do not see the scanner. Can print from all accounts.

Hi there Ira Fletcher,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below. Note: While the article was written for printer issues, many of the same troubleshooting steps apply to scanners as well.

Run multiple apps from one browser windows with 9ias r2

We are running 9ias r1 with forms 6i as our production server. Users are able to access one html page with multiple links to their applications. They can run one application, keep it running, navigate back to the html page and run a second application.
We are testing 9ias r2 with forms 9i, but when users try to navigate back to the html page to run the second application the first application closes.
Is there a way to have 9ias r2 work the same as r1 and allow users to run multiple application from one html page?
