Some small observations

Snow Leopard is great!
Here are some things I've noticed so far.
- NeoOffice (version 3) wouldn't launch after upgrading to SL. Reinstalled NeoOffice and ran the patch thingy and all was well again.
- Repair Permissions runs a LOT faster now.
- The preference in Spaces "When switching to an application, switch to an open space..." doesn't work correctly with the Finder. Specifically, if this box is unchecked, switching to Finder from another application via clicking on the dock will take you immediately to the space with the open Finder window (if there is one) - even though your preference is not to do this. This preference works correctly with my other applications.
This last point seems connected with the fact that going to the Finder via the Dock opens a new Finder window if there is not one there already. This is different from Leopard, right?
charlie

Hmmm.... I am just about positive that Leopard didn't behave that way for me.
A standard task I would perform many times daily: (In a space with no open finder windows) Click on Finder in Dock to get the Finder menus. Hit command-N to get a Finder window. (Now, if I click on Finder in the dock I either go to a space with an existing window or I get a new window in the current space.
Is there a preference setting I've forgotten about? (I looked, but couldn't find anything.)

  • Some small bugs and errors

    Hi,
    In the meantime, waiting for the DPS network fix, I have some small bugs and errors to post:
    #1: When signed ot from the folio builder panel, the click to create new folio message isn't useful, as it doesn't work. You must be signed in.
    #2: "System Status" cut off on the DPS Status Website:

    Hi Bob,
    Just tested again. but nope, it doesn't work for me anymore. Since one of the latest updates, I can only create folios, when I'm signed in. Here is my video proof:
    This is the case for me on two (tested) computers running CS5.5 and CS6!
    That's why I thought this feature has been removed.

  • Create 1 customer master for some small customer

    Hi All,
    Our company have some small customer, sometime they buy our goods (may be they buy only one time). So we want create 1 customer master for them. Can we do it?

    Dear  ngocvt,
    Transaction Code: V-07 - Create a one-time customer. (Account Group - CPDA)
    One time customer / vendor accounts in SAP means they are account groups for customer/vendor and where in only the general data of the customer / vendor are stored instead of maintaining the bank data and other company code data that are relevant for other account groups which are useful for long run purposes.
    As you know everything that is entered in SAP is saved in some TABLE. Now the customer & vendor master is such a table which holds vast amount of data.
    The business secenario where the vendor or customer which are being in system only for 1 transaction, it is not advisable to have all the data maintained in main master.
    Therefore SAP has provided with the feature of One time vendor / customer wherein in the document entry stage only you have to enter the name, address and other details of the vendor/customer.
    The data, as far as I know' remains at doc level and does'nt go to the master tables.
    If you want to change the standard functionality then go to
    Transaction OBD2, u will find CPDA, that is standard one one time customer account group.
    Copy it  and make necessary changes.
    Hope this Helps.
    Thanks

  • Anyone else pretty excited? (some small questions)

    This is pretty great, I've been waiting for this merger for awhile (like I'm sure a lot of us have been) but I do have some small questions (that probably wont be able to get answered): 
    • On the 9th, I'm assuming people will be camping out and what have you. But would EVERY Verizon and Apple store carry the Verizon iPhone on the 10th? I'm assuming no... 
    • With the NE2 special ending, even long time customers will no longer be able to use this service, right? Furthermore, does that mean there will be no more annual upgrades, and that everyone must pall full retail (usually $300-$500) for a new phone? 
    Thanks~

Furthermore, does that mean there will be no more annual upgrades, and that everyone must pall full retail (usually $300-$500) for a new phone? Existing Customers will have their NE2 option grandfathered for one more use, then after use at upgrade time it's forever gone. Annual upgrades required a minimum service level, so not everyone qualified (I never did, my plans were too cheap to qualify) and upgrades will come at 10 months (1 year contract) or 20 months (2 year contract), same as they are for me now.
    Thanks~

  • How can I make biscuit and then break it to two parts and have some small pieces?

    Hello there,
    please tell me ..
    How can I make biscuit in AE and then break it to two parts and have some small pieces fall down ?
    any help would be so much appreciated ..

    Strictly inside AE you have two options. Shatter using custom shatter maps and masking + particle effects. Neither would be as conviceing as Dave's solution.
    If you have access to a 3D app (blender is free) you can do it there.
    Here's a 2 minute project in AE with a stock image:
    with a shot of the broken buscuit top animated to fit the split it might be kind of convincing.
    Here's the CS6 AEP project file for you to play with. Take a look at all of the elements to see how this worked by selecting all layers and then pressing the u key twice to see everything I changed.

  • Some small problems with my new 3G iPhone

    Having some small problems with my new iPhone, nothing major, just annoying.
    1. When I plug my iPhone in to charge/sync my Adobe photoshop keeps trying to download the photos on my iPhone, which causes an error message from Adobe that it can't download and it stops all syncing and removes my iPhone from iTunes. I have to unplug and reinsert USB cable and sometimes it works ok and sometimes I have to reinsert again. Also when charging, it will disconnect, reconnect and the samething all over again, photoshop trying to get photos and an error message.
    2. Can't send e-mails via 3G? Only can get, have to connected to a WiFi to send e-mails, or is this normal?

    When your iPhone includes photos in the Camera Roll, it is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer, and whichever app you have selected to import photos will automatically launch to import the photos. If you haven't imported these photos, it is a good idea to do so as with any other digital camera. I import the photos followed by deleting the photos from the iPhone after the import process is complete. If I want any of the imported photos available on my iPhone for viewing, I add the photos to an existing album that is selected to be transferred to my iPhone under the Photos tab for my iPhone sync preferences, or add the photos to a new album followed by selecting the album under the Photos tab followed by a sync.
    If your iPhone's Camera Roll does not include any photos that have not been imported, Adobe Photoshop should not launch automatically when your iPhone is connected.
    I know how to disable the selected application for photo import from launching automatically regardless with a Mac, but not with Windows.
    Regarding the sending email problem, who is the email account provider and does the email account provider have an authenticated SMTP server?
    Most ISPs block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP being used for your internet connection unless the SMTP server is authenticated. When connected to the internet via AT&T's cellular network, it is no different in this regard. AT&T's SMTP server is included and available by default for use with an email account that does not have an authenticated SMTP server when connected to the internet via AT&T's cellular network, but you probably won't be able to use this SMTP server for sending messages with the account when connected to the internet with your ISP via an available wi-fi network - especially if the email account is provided by your ISP.
    I access two email accounts with the iPhone's mail client and both accounts have an authenticated SMTP server. I've never had any problems sending with either account regardless the ISP being used for an available wi-fi network, or when connected via AT&T's cellular network.

  • My iphone wont boot is just displays the apple logo and some small typing

    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

    It likely means there was still water inside it and something has now shorted out and permanently damaged one or more components.  THE very worst thing you can do with wet electronics is energize them - even a small drop of water inside on any of the circuitry or electrical contacts can cause catastrophic damage.
    Take it to Apple for a free evaluation, but most likely you will need to replace it.  For the out of warranty fee ($269.00 USD) you will get a refurbished replacement (like new, with a factory new screen and battery).  An out of warranty replacement will also re-instate your remaining warranty, or 90 days warranty, whichever is longer.

  • One big replication or some small replications

    Hello,
    I would ask you about advice. In our system, which runs on MSSQL 2008, we replicate some tables. The system has only 4GB RAM. 2GB for DB and 2GB for system.
    1st table has about 7 million entries.
    2nd table has about 4 million entries.
    3rd table has about 4 million entries.
    4th table has about 1 million entries.
    5th table has about 2 million entries.
    Other tables have only few entries.
    Now we have separate replication for each table.
    What is better? If I have 1 big replication for all tables or small replications?
    Thank you David

    As Tom mentioned there is nothing do with Size of table but definitely transaction rates(Insert/Update/delete) on the table will have impact on performance which may create latency in the synchronization. You need to extend the default agent setting.
    I agree, initial snapshot is big concern, but you can do with a backup and restore method to sync the data between publisher and subscriber.
    I would recommend you to upgrade Hardware configuration for better performance.
    It is better to handle with simple design structure by having I Publisher.

  • When e-mailing from iPhoto -some small, some medium/ upgraded to 10.4

  • Some small things about an x60s

     hello,
    I have a x60s (t2400, 2gb ram) as a spare laptop (also just because i really like it).
    but i have a few questions;
    i know there are more models and that the cpu is solderd onto the mainboard. if i want a t7200 cpu, can i then just replace the entire mainboard? or does that later model have diffrent cooling wich my t2400 doesnt have?
    secondly i hearred the discussion about 2 or 4gbs of ram. if i insert 4gb ram, then i just get 3 a 3.5 gb? and will an t7200 allow me to have more ram?
    and last is more an software issue; i use fingerprint to logon to windows 7 (home premium). is there a way i can set windows to only use fingerprint logon? (so you cant select other logon options)
    hoping you can answer me,
    Erik
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The second fan is not the main problem, the CPU/GPU fan+heatsink is. The "s" models have low consumption CPUs and their heatsinks are smaller, thinner. The heatsink of the non "s" models is thicker and won't fit in the basecover.
    I actually have a X61s with the second fan (standard config, I didn't change anything), so if you find one of those don't be afraid. Just make sure it belongs to an "s" model.
    Spoiler (Highlight to read)
    You could actually use a X61(non "s") motherboard and combine it with a X61s fan/heatsink. Physically everything will fit, but you will end up with a full voltage CPU in combination with a low voltage fan, so an overheat problem is inevitable, unless you do some strong undervolting. I personally wouldn't go this path...

  • A sample AppleScript and some technical observations on Photos

    Hi,
    While I've had my own fair share of issues with Photos, I'm overall very happy with it. But I have noticed some quirks, so I thought I'd share them and also share an AppleScript I wrote to help out on some other discussions.
    Don't add a KeyWord to more than 1,000 photos at a time as a precaution. Photos crashed when I tried a huge huge number! And it didn't recover, so good job I use Time Machine religiously.I've found KeyWord updates in chunks of around 750 to be the best optimum
    Talking of Time Machine, I'd noticed that it doesn't backup the database files. I was going to try and research this, but when I lost 80% of my library (see point 1 above), it restored just fine.
    After restoring, and starting Photos, it displays a message knowing it has been restored, and does some re-building of the database. But it was a perfect copy. So, kudos to Apple for at least not losing me my library!
    On the two occasions in my life I have had to restore (one with iPhoto and the recent one with Photos), I find that the restore in Time Machine takes forever. So, I heartedly recommend this tip to use terminal to restore the library. With a USB3 hard drive, I restored an 85 GB library in around 25 minutes.  Stack Exchange
    Smart Albums are not visible to AppleScript
    When changing or adding a title to an item in Photos, the change is not written to the database until you close Photos. Might be a good idea to close and reopen often if you are doing this much.
    I got loads of duplicates when I converted my iPhoto Library. It was a combination of a sync problem I had with PhotoStream and thousands of Zombie files that were hidden in my iPhoto package and imported into Photos during the conversion.
    I've been playing with AppleScript to help me tidy up my library. I wrote one script for another discussion, but I share it here, because it will give those that use AppleScript as an amateur (like myself) some clues on how to get a media item and do something with it.The documentation says that you can also process moments, but I haven't got that far yet!
    I'll share the script and link in a separate post to make it easier to read!

The documentation says that you can also process moments, but I haven't got that far yet!
    There are some scripts about that use "get selection" but I have found this to be very buggy... as has the developer of Duplicate Annihilator. So, I recommend that you add the photos you want to process into an album and then use AppleScript on that album. Note: Applescript will not process SmartAlbums. You can use a SmartAlbum to get the selection of items you want... and then select all and add to a temporary album for AppleScript to use.
    You can download this script from dropbox here, but I've also pasted the script below:
    I personally don't run this script as an application or service... I prefer to open it in Script Editor and just hit run (or CMD/R). Make sure you have Photos open - I  haven't put any checks in the script to wait for the app to open and be available to AppleScript.
    Final warning: something odd about Photos: If you change the title of an item (either manually or with this script) it will not get written to the Photos database until you close the application. So, if you have changed any titles in preparation for running this script, make sure you close and reopen Photos. Also, if you are going to re-process any items that this script processed, you should as a precaution also close and reopen Photos. (BTW, for keywords, this is not a problem. They get written immediately.

  • Some small questions for iMS installation

    I am preparing to install iMS 5.2 with existing configuration and uer and groups iDS 5.1 on Solaris 9. Some issues confused me, please help, thanks in advance.
    Q1. By the checking of iMS installation doc, Question 34 needs "Administration Server Port". Is it same as the port of my exsiting Administration server of iDS 5.1?
    Q2. Now I want to set this as test env but my dc (dc=cig,dc=tcs,dc=com) is real, that means that mail server with suffix "cig.tcs.com" already has been setup and worked well, and all servers are on the same network.
    I am not sure if I should change the dc to avoid any confusion after installing iMS?

    I've done it before which upgrade the iMS 5.1 to iMS 5.2...
    steps...
    uninstall the iMS 5.1...... using the uninstall....
    second install the iMS 5.2
    remain the iDS......
    then... issue the ./imsimta dirsync -F
    done....
