Some prefs and questions

I am trying to maximize the iCal window and get a dialogue box for the new events instead of it opening the info pane...does anyone know how to do this?
Also, I manage about 10 calendars, is there a way to have colors not repeat...it's kind of confusing when you see 2 completely different events, such as hockey games and work times in the same color...

As far as your second question is concerned, if you select one of you calendars with the info pane open you will notice a small box with that calendars color in it (it will have two arrows next to it). Click on that colored box and select "other..." to create a custom color.
Hope that helps.

Some problems and questions using OWB

For Igor or anyone who can help me :-)
Hello Igor,
Thanks for all your help concerning my mapping deployment problem! Now its working better ;-)
I used the OWB Runtime Assistant to create a new runtime target schema and i use the owner of this schema as user while logging to OWB.
Now i can create and deploy without problems mappings, tables, functions, procedures, packages, dimensions, views, materialized views, process flows (i have installed the Oracle Workflow Client 2.6.2.0.0 with OWF builder and OWF mailer ).
However I have still some problems and questions :-)
a) After deploying a mapping or process flow i can execute them from OWB Deployment Manager. How can i schedule the execution of a deployed precess without using OWBDM ? (I want to execute a process every day to perform ETL).
b) I think i have a problem deploying cubes. I create a cube in OWB, the validation is OK, the deploment succeds, but if i look with OEMC in the tree in the Warehouse OLAP section no cube is created. Only the fact tabe is created. If i look to the scripts from the Pre Deployment generation results i found DDLs only for TABLE, INDEX, UNIQUE KEY, FOREIGN KEY and ANALYZE object types, meanwhile during a dimension deployment i found also a DDL for the DIMENSION type object. WHY ?
c) If I look in the procedures of the new created OWB Runtime Target Schema I found 3 procedures which are in error and when I try to compile them I receive the following error messages :
- procedure WB_OLAP_LOAD_CUBE
PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_AWM.CREATE_AWCUBELOAD_SPEC' must be declared
- procedure WB_OLAP_LOAD_DIMENSION
PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_AWM.CREATE_AWDIMLOAD_SPEC' must be declared
- procedure WB_OLAP_LOAD_DIMENSION_GENUK
PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_AWM.CREATE_AWDIMLOAD_SPEC' must be declared
How can solve this problem? Is there any link with the fact that the cube is not generated?
d) When I first acces the deployed DIM in the OEMC tree I receive a message saying that the dimension does not have complete metadata as needed for use by Oracle OLAP services (because is created either in an earlier version of Oracle database or it was created by an an other application than OEMC) and OEMC automatically generates the default needed metadata. Is this normal ?
I work in an environment with
- Oracle 9i Database 9.2.0.1.0
- Oracle 9i Client 9.2.0.1.0
- Oracle 9i Warehouse Builder Products 9.2.0.2.8

Some problems and questions

I have some problems and questions about my MSI MEGA PC 180 system...
One problem is that MSI live monitor only works one time after every new installation then is just say "The URL is invalid" every other time I try to search for updates.
One problem is that one of the fans doesn't turn off when I turn of the computer and the only way to get i to turn off is to turn on the hifi mode and turn it off then the fan stops. And some times the fan can start after a while when the computer has been turned off.
There are two fans for the cooling of the CPU but PCALERT only shows the speed of one of them.. why? according to the manual one of the is called CPU fan and the other one is called sysfan but only CPU fan showes i PCALERT.
Are there no other way to control the Tv other than with the Home Teather system than I find way to slow if you use 1280x1024 resolution on the screen like I do. And are there no way to sort and remove channels in home teather? As i is now I can't move the channels in the order I want and I can't remover channels that the auto search thaught was channels but aren't?
An other thing that I find annoying is that the fullscreen mode of home teather doens't cover all off the screen it doesn't hide the systray and leaves a small but annoying kolumn to the right that showes the backgrund and that is very annoying to watch tv if you have a light backgrund because the kolumn are so bright.

Welcome Kabbo,
I see you agree that MC III is far from perfect. Perhaps you can try the combination of Media Portal and Ir2Key. Just read some of the other posts including "WinIRX.ocx internals/usage" by ddookie. Another possibility is to try Dscaler, but this program is only for watching TV.
Regarding the processor fans: its normal that only one of the two shows up in PcAlert; when you look closely to both fans you'll see that one has only a two-wired connection.
The problem of a fan not shutting down is new to me, I suppose you have checked the connections to your mobo?

Resizing and editing Components Design - Some problems and questions at CQ5

Hello everyone,
I'm building a website application following the http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/howto/website_quick.html guide (using the cq 5.5). The thing is, when I drop an image component on the site and drop some image into this one, the component resize my image. Even if I double click the image component and change the size, there's kind of a "maximum" size. I don't wanna change this one by css properties because if my user change the picture or drop a new one in the page, the change will not be applied to this new one.
So, my question is, there's a way to configure the component to get the size i'm inputing on the dialog, without "limits"? Below some images of what i'm doing.
The second problem I found is with the "text & image component". I've inserted the "right" alignment for the image in the styles tab, but the image stays on top of the text, and there's nothing I can do to solve this in the input dialog. Don't wanna use the css for the same reason that I've explained before.
All the components are imported from fundation.
So, there is something I can do to change the design of my components?
Thanks in advance,
Matheus de Oliveira.

For the issue you are having with the maximum size there are couple of possiblity.
The firstpossiblity is that your CSS is enforcing a maximum size. So to check this take the src from you img tag and put in a browser and see if you get the original size or not. If you get the right size when viewing the image URL than you do in the page than the issue is CSS. Depending on how you have designed your site's CSS there might be any number reasons it's limiting the image size but whatever the reason it's an implementation question.
The second option is that design mode of the image component. The default install has a maximum image size set in design mode of the image component. Switch your page to design mode and verify that the maximum image size is not set in the design dialog.
A final option is that the DAM is enforcing the maximum size. In CQ 5.5 the default configuration is to create a web ready rendition with a maximum height and width fo 1200 x 1200. The out of the box components and the out of the box image rendering script will use this web ready rendition if it is present rather than the original image.
To check if this is your problem do the following:
Go to the workflow model console and edit the Update Dam Asset workflow.
Delete the step in the workflow named Web Ready Rendition
Upload a new image that is larger than 1200 x 1200 to the DAM
Try and use that image in an image component - it should display at the original size.

Some help and questions on Pegasus R6

I am mid switch from a mac pro 2009 to a 2011 ultimate iMac with a thunderbolt display on a BOA II arm, I am looking at storage options, I have specced the SSD and 2TB drive, but I will use more, I have another 3 x3TB Hitachi's in the Mac Pro. I have bought an OWC enclosure to hold two of the drives, probably as JBOD as a backup. I want to buy the Pegasus R6, but need some help on RAID and how I can practically use it. I also have a Synology Ds1511+ and DX510 full of 2TB drives that we use for Media and time machine 9 and 4 TB respectively and growing!!! So I want a separate ultra fast storage for the iMac. I know its overkill for a personal machine but its my only vice!!!!!!
My questions are:
In Raid 5 then it would appear as one big disk, 9.7TB in the case of the R6?
Can I have individual folders within here, such as iTunes, crashplan backup, download storage?
Can I have two volumes within one R6?
Does anyone know if and when it was full, I could just replace the drives with 3TB drives, is it possible to upgrade them one by one, or do I have to start again?
If I want to backup a thunderbolt volume will it be seen by time machine?
Thanks in advance for any input.

Msi gt70 with some issues and questions answer asap thanks

my first issue is my ssd it is just too small how do I increase it probably a step by step link to where I can purchase and learn how to install it second of all I really need my msi burn recovery so my f3 does not work anymore, I have my drivers cd but that doesn't have it, the next issue is softwares I use when the render the use my ssd and that makes them seriously slow the need more memory space I wish I could make them use the bigger harddrive at least for the main time till I get a new one, my soft keys work except eject and wireless off all others work

Wow.....
Well, first off, try and use some periods here and there. Or a list. Something to atleast break things up in a coherent manner.
So, you want a guide on how to install another SSD. That's a pretty complex matter, judging by what I can get out of your post, your technical prowess may not be where it needs to be in order to do that.
Also, without knowing what you currently have, other than it is a GT70, it really makes it difficult to tell you what to get.
As far as your software, I'm sorry, but there really isn't any way to help you since you seem to have not made the recovery disks like you were supposed to. I would contact MSI for more information on how to proceed at this point.
After we get the above sorted, we can work on your other questions.

Some Observations and questions

I was running my RMI application on 2 different machines, and found out that the applications never called the remote methods (they could find and connect to the remote objects but never called any methods on them). So I read about it and found that I had to set the security manager.
I wrote the following policy file:
grant {
permission java.net.SocketPermission "*:1024-65535", "connect,accept,listen,resolve";
permission java.net.SocketPermission "*:80", "connect";
permission java.awt.AWTPermission "accessEventQueue";
permission java.awt.AWTPermission "showWindowWithoutWarningBanner";
permission java.util.PropertyPermission "user.home", "read";
permission java.util.PropertyPermission "user.dir", "read,write";
permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.dir}/", "read,write,execute";
permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.dir}/download/", "write";
//permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.home}/text2.txt", "read";
I compiled as follows:
P:\xml approach1>java -Djava.rmi.server.codebase="file:/P:/xml approach1/" -Djava.security.policy="P
:/xml approach1/server.policy" P2P
But I got the following errors:
Exception in thread "main" java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermissi
on C:\WINNT read)
at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(Unknown Source)
at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkRead(Unknown Source)
at java.io.File.isDirectory(Unknown Source)
at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicFileChooserUI$BasicFileView.getIcon(Unknown Source)
at javax.swing.JFileChooser.getIcon(Unknown Source)
at .........
I am doing my development at my University and therefore do not have access to certain folders e.g C:\WINNT.
I thought if I delete the line : permission java.util.PropertyPermission "user.home", "read"; I may be able to run the code. But again I got the following errors:
Exception in thread "main" java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.util.PropertyPe
rmission user.home read)
at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(Unknown Source)......
If I have a policy file wchich just says:
grant {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
I can run the code, but again the methods are called locally.
So my questions are:
(1) How can I make sure, that the system does call remote methods.
(2) Since I do not have access to 'C:\WINNT', how can I use 'permission java.util.PropertyPermission "user.home", "read"' without getting 'access denied' error.
This post seems lengthy

Nokia X/X2 -- Some thoughts and questions

Moved from Symbian Belle, some thoughts:
1. Email widget doesn't automatically refresh. Have to manually tap to load new mail despite specifying a sync. interval.
2. Asking me to Sign in to a MS, Exchange, Nokia or Google account etc. to use the calendar. Can I not get a local one for which I can choose to Sync if desired, similar to Symbian?
3. Does the X2 have a play via radio capability? I don't see the app but wanted to if the hardware capability is there?
4. How do I know the phone is using Gps, Glonass or Beido? Specifications listed positioning capabilities.
5. Don't see the mix radio app. Possibly not available in certain countries.
6. Belle had option to automatically switch between GSM and 3G where available. X2 only allows a 3G only setting and GSM/CDMA.
7. People and Phone apps need to be bundled together. While scrolling through contacts via phone app, if you accidently tap one, it starts dialing. Plus it doesn't show items as together and repeats contacts with more than one number.
8. Didn't really like the Metro and Fastlane UIs. One reason was that the wallpaper was not changeable. So if you have gaps, then all you see is black.
9. Glance screen doesn't seem customizable. Time appears on 2 lines, seems a bit odd.

Some issues and questions about StorE TV

Hi there! I bought stor.e tv a week ago and there are number of issues, in order of personal importance:
1. It slows down audio playback. It happens when playing standard mp.3s on my home stereo through the analogue outlet - my music sounds bizarre, slowed-down and with lowered frequency. I have to go back change, settings to HDMI output (normal speed play, no problem), then change again to analog, scroll through the folders to find the song I want to play and play it again - voila, it works normally. Quite a complex way to play a song properly, don't you think?!
2. When there are ID tags (especially album art) to the songs it takes ages to shift from one song to the next.
3. Audio settings are often forgotten after the unit has been shut down normally from the remote control only - you switch it on again and it's not how I left it but back to HDMI. So, I have to remember any time checking the settings before playing a song?! Even though, in a crooked way, that^s helpful having in mind problem 1.
4. Does not display correctly Cyrillic subtitles.
5. Heats quite a lot.
There are other things too (no playlists, slow, lagging, etc). I am actually writing that just before going back to the shop and ask for my money back.
Cheers, guys!

Hi
> 4. Does not display correctly Cyrillic subtitles.
Yes, this was mentioned in other threads seems that not all subtitles are supported.
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=51945
Regarding the other issues;
I think you should try to reset the E Store TV to default again and should check how it works.
In many cases this helps to solve such annoying issues.

Thoughts and questions on FCserver

Here are some thoughts and questions I have on FCserver.
Archiving
Only a paragraph on archiving in the manual, wow any media assets management system has to have more to do with archiving.
Our clips are in MXF (P2) format until Log & Transfer places MOV file in capture scratch folder.
As far as I can tell just copying the MXF files (Contents folder and LASTCLIP file) won't be possible or even desirable. This means a edit/ingest station has to go through the process of logging and ingesting the files. So again FCserver won't be able to handle all the archiving because logging will only take the "good" shots.
*Do you need/want all clips in FCserver?*
No. We have a pretty high shoot ratio (recored/used) so I don't want to have all the junk cataloged.
*Do you need all clips and other assets to be archived.*
Yes. Which means that archiving can't be handed only by FCserver (if at all).
I'm just not seeing much on archiving with FCserver.
Editing
At this point my workflow does not require the sharing of the primary representation (original file).
The same station that logs & transfers files into the capture scratch folder is the edit station were the project is edited and finished. There is no need to move the primary representation (original file) so the time it takes to upload the files to FCserver is wasted. We only need thumbnails/proxies for review. That brings me to my next question.
*Is edit-in-place the solution for me?*
I'm not sure I understand the devices setup information. Can I just use the capture scratch folder of the an edit station as the device location for the primary representation (original file)? If so, I could then set some other hard drive on another computer (the one running FCserver) to hold the thumbnails and proxies. Is that right?
And in the future, if it becomes needed, can I then move the primary representation device to some other drive? How would that effect the catalog?
Viewing
View/Review
*Do sequences show in FCserver under FCP Project file or do you have to create a MOV file to be able to watch/review it?*
It's my understanding that sequences are listed under the assets of a FCP project file, but the playing of a sequence would not likely work unless all effects have been rendered and uploaded (and in my case the primary representation uploaded). So seems that any review of a sequence would take less time if I just made a review version locally (on edit station) and then uploaded that.
*Does the FCserver need a static IP?*
I can see how you can find the FCserver on a LAN without the IP but if you want off-site viewers I'm assuming you need to have the FCserver setup with a static IP?
Thank you all for your input.

Just some answeres to all the easy things, have not enough time right now...
Archiving:
Your way is one way. You can also use the P2CMS from Panasonic with its plugin to access MXF files directly or use another quicktime component, e.g. this one described here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1477238&tstart=0
*Editing/Edit in place*
Edit in Place works only for Xsan volumes. All other volumes (internal and external drives, network attached storage) need to cache the files.
Viewing
Sequences only show up as sequence icons but you cannot play them back due to Final Cut Server has no FCP engine build in. You need to render out quicktime, at least as reference movie.
*Static IP*
Yes, you need an IP, but you get this by connecting to the net via your service provider. If you want to get a static IP, perfect. But if not you could use services like www.dyndns.org to get a name attached to your dynamic IP. This can be updated manually or via your router etc.

Macbook pro starts up but i see picture of some files and a question mark

So I was on my laptop today and it just outta nowhere froze , the song i was listening stopped and i couldn't change the page, i could move the trackpad but nothing else.
so i clicked on the off button and turned it off.
then i tried to turn it on again but while loading it just stayed blank and this picture of some files and a question mark on them appeared, i have no idea what's going on.
I turned it off again and turned it back on and the little apple appeared and it was loading but then a sign appeared like one of prohibited (the one that's a circle and has a slash across it) and idk what to do! i'm so frustrated all my school files are there and idk why this happened in the first place.
i turned it off and just put it to charge.
lately i've been using it a lot and i had a few things on when it froze , so im just gonna leave it off for a while but what can i do?
how do u solve this? has anyone had this happened to their macbook pro already? i bought it just last year idk why this is happening.

The folder and question mark means it cannot find a valid OSX Boot Volume, you need to Boot from your original install DVD (hold c at start) and then run Disc Utility from the top menu bar and run both 'Repair Disc' and 'Repair Permissions'. If it still doesn't boot from the internal hard drive then you need to boot from that install DVD again and do an archive (re)install of the operating system. (Your User data will be saved that way)

10.3.5 sluggish on my iMac (and some other newbie questions)...

I just purchased an iMac, and am brand-new to Macs. I can do anything on a PC, and actually do PC tech support for a living, so you can imagine that I feel completely ridiculous asking some of these questions, but here goes:
1. How do I copy and paste? Ctrl+C does not work.... surely there is another alternative?
2. Is there a way I can download OE for Mac? I know Microsoft no longer offers downloads or support, but if there is another place I could find ol'familiar Outlook Express, that would be fantastic.
3. My browser (either IE or Safari) is not completely maximized. There's the area below, and an area to the side with some icons as well... is this the maximum size of the browser, or...?
4. Right now I'm running OS 10.3.5, which seems a bit sluggish. It came installed. I also have the discs for 8.6, and if it will make the system run better, I'll definitely ''downgrade.'' How would I do this? Do I have to ''reformat'' or anything like that?
5. Are there other tweaks, sort of like MSCONFIG, that will help speed up my system in general?
Here are my system stats:
iMac (Grape!), 333MHz, 6GB Harddrive, 196 MB RAM...
It's a G3 CRT, I think (if that matters).
Any help would be so much appreciated!

Hello Tiffany,
First of all, Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
In regards to your #4, I would just suggest running Software Update (after upgrading the RAM memory if possible) and upgrading to the latest version of 10.3 that should be offered to you, ie. 10.3.9). As the other posters have suggested above you should upgrade your RAM to at least 256 MB. With any updates to system software, remember to Repair Permissions from Disk Utility found at HD/Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility before and after the update.
There are many "tweaks" and troubleshooting information for OS X that you can perform to get the best from your OS and machine.
Some great information can be found @:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/faqs.html
A great tip, as your machine has a very small amount of Disk space is to run a little app called Delocalizer that will free up alot of space taken from Foriegn language files. The link to it can be found in Dr. Smoke's FAQ for "Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk".
hope that helps some,

Good morning. I've read in some blogs and forums that the verizon wireless works in Europe but my question is if it works with portugueses cards (like vodafone sim)?

Good morning (at least here in Portugal)
My question is that I want to buy the new Iphone 5C, but I want to use it here in Portugal. I was in the store menu looking for it and it appears that I have to stay with a network for two years, if not the price will increase significantly. I want to buy it online because the Iphone will only arrive in Portugal in December and probably it will be more expensive. I've read in some blogs and forums that the verizon wireless works in Europe but my question is if it works with portugueses cards (like vodafone sim)?
Thank you very much for the attention.
Daniela João.

The Verizon iPhone 5 is sold as unlocked. You can buy it full retail and use it anywhere you want. However, you won't get LTE in Europe and you won't be eligible for warranty service unless you take the phone back to the U.S. You won't be able to buy one on a contract unless you can pass a U.S. credit check. The minimum monthly cost would be $59.99 plus tax. I assume that all of this information will be true of of the 5C as well.
Wait and buy the phone in Portuagal.
