Start Profile Import problem

Hi,
While importing profiles in RZ10 it is showing the start profile error. But it is importing Default and Instance profile correctly. The START profile is at the correct location.
Error detail.
Start profile
sap-*-**-01
\sapmnt\QAS\SYS\profile\START_D00_**--**-
could not be read. The import is therfore not possible.
Can anyone suggest....
Cheers!!!
Gaurav

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, I got my answer from the SAPNote 1000897. My total profile location and profile file is exceeding more than 60 characters so SAP can not read the full file name. So I have changed my file name to sorter name and now it is working fine.
Thanks for everything..

Unable to see Active Directory Groups in the User Profile Database after Profile Import

***Major Update - I have finally been able to get the direct attention of the folks responsible for the User Profile Service on the SharePoint Product Team. Long story short, they have reproduced the error and identified as an actual mistake
that needs to be fixed, so it is now officially in the bug pipeline and will be fixed. The current estimate is some time in the summer. They will keep me updated with timeframes, which I am allowed to share as time goes on.
SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise RTM. W2K8R2 w/multi-server setup:
AD/DNS
SQL 2008
WFE
APP
Claims Mode Web App only using Windows Integrated Auth
So, this was never a problem in 2007, and I didn't even realize it was a problem in 2010 until I started to build a solution that utilized my blog article:
InfoPath - User Roles in Browser-Enabled Forms Using AD Groups. I went to utilize the same web method of the same web service, but I noticed that no data was showing up at all. Typically,
the GetUserMembership/GetCommonMembership methods return the specified user's memberships: AD Security Groups, AD Distribution Lists, and SharePoint Sites (not SharePoint Groups, though).
My user profile sync is working. All AD users are pulled in with the proper profile data.
"Users and Groups" is selected in the Synchronization Entities section of my Sync Settings.
Security groups are working for permissions and audience targeting. Confirmed my users are affected properly by the use of Security Groups.
My query to the GetUserMemberships web method (and GetCommonMemberships) is running (not failing), but it's not returning anything even though my user is in some Security Groups and has explicit membership to multiple sites.
The GetUserProfileByName method of the same UserProfileService.asmx web service
returns all the regular profile data like expected, so the web service works and my profile database is populated
Basically, I'm not seeing my AD groups or any membership data populated in the profile database. I did use MIISCLIENT.exe to see what I could find, and here is what I saw:
Using the Metaverse Search, I searched for the "person" type and saw all of the users in my profile sync connection (single OU)
Using the same tool, I searched for the "group" type and saw nothing, but the message said 4 items were retrieved
I realized that the only column showing was displayName, and they were blank, so I added other columns to be sure
objectGUID, objectType, distinguishedName all showed values, and I could now see all the Security Groups from the OU where I'm doing my profile sync
My "person" objects all have displayNames showing but none of the groups do. In SharePoint, the GetUserMemberships method relies on displayName and accountName, but neither are coming through the profile import
So, it does seem like the groups are coming in with the profile import, but I can't see them. I also can't verify that the groups are being associated with my users in the profile database, because doing a query to the membership methods returns nothing...not
even blank rows.
***Edit: New information! Regular AD Distribution Lists _do_ work properly. I just never bothered testing them until folks on my blog notified me. DLs come through the profile sync, are visible in the profile database, and show up
when using the GetUserMemberships method.
***Edit: Ok, now we're getting somewhere. I checked my last profile sync with the MIISCLIENT, and this is what I found:
Here are the properties of my Distribution List:
Here are the properties of my Security Group:
Notice that the groupType value of the DL is a normal integer (2), but the groupType value of the SG is some crazy negative number. Both types are still lacking DisplayNames for some reason, but when I retrieve the DL via GetUserMemberships, it DOES
show the proper DisplayName despite nothing showing in the MIISCLIENT.

Hello Clayton,
I have same problem with SP 2010 and now I am testing SP 2013 and seems that the problem still.aa
Probably I have some configuration problem, but all seems work, except this.
SharePoint 2013 has no improvements on this. Until seeing this thread, I thought it was an issue within my farm configuration or AD Service account for User Profile Sync. And I've dug far and wide for any other possible settings which would prevent users
from populating in the site people-picker. This might be flagged as off-topic, but I'll beg differ. How can I expect SharePoint to retrieve AD Users and Groups for accuracy in the sites which rely on this server??? Frustrating. I've spent hours and days on
this! I have 3 SP2013 farms with multiple clients (different OU's/containers and security groups). Testing in a separate QA DEV farm with the same config. NO luck yet!
This is where I'm at with it (posted this as a question recently on SharePoint Stack Exchange):
"Help.... Please.... Users from AD groups are not populating in the site people picker. I've set up a SharePoint 2013 site collection permissions group with only AD groups in it, no users added directly. Whether or not I give this SharePoint group permissions
to the site content, I still get none of the AD users showing up in the people picker. I have done the iisreset after adding the groups.
I've checked all of the people picker properties in stsadm to be sure there are no constraints in effect on the web app or site collections. User profiles are synching and I've tried both AD import and User Profile Sync. The AD groups are security
groups, though not email-enabled. The AD service account has all the special permissions. My web app is claims based. My app pool runs with Network Service account. No policies in place to restrict users, checked CA and the site collection settings.
What am I missing? I've read in multiple places that this is a supported/working config. So why can't I get these users to populate in people picker for things like Assigned To in a tasks list, or attendees of an event? "
There is some pretty good insight here, but no real hope:
User profile
synchronization: importing users and security groups in SharePoint 2010

Hope we find a better answer, as it IS very misleading. User Profile Import specifies Users, or Users and Groups. Nothing is said about Containers or Distribution Groups, worse yet there lacks any clear disclosure about how "Groups" will not
actually import if they are a Global Security Group and the users contained within them exclusively will NOT be included in your profiles,
nor in any compiled Audiences. Which was another BIG bummer!
I'm hoping to see future improvements on the Group imports.

Horrendous import problems in Lightroom 3 64bit

Hi, I'm in desperate need of some advice in figuring out why Lightroom 3 won't import NEF files taken on a D90. I know there that other threads have been started about this issue, but mine has gone a bit further
Not sure where to start with this so system first: OS Windows 7 home Premium 64 bit, 8GB Ram, 1.5TB HD, Intel i7 860 2.8ghz, ATI Radeon 5700 Display driver series, lightroom 3 64 bit installed.
The first issue is that import in lightroom either A) Starts the import, gets through about 10 NEF files and locks/hangs indefinately followed by the Lightroom is not responding message and lightroom has to be closed down or B) Opens import module but locks/hangs whilst trying to find the images which are on an SD card - this happens whether the card is inserted into the PC card reader, an external card reader or direct from camera or C) Will not even consider opening the import module. The import module also freezes/hangs when trying to create a new catalogue. As it stands I'm unable to import directly into Lightroom from an SD card - and I've tried different cards and brands.
The strange thing is I'm having a similar issue trying to transfer the NEF files by using windows explorer - i.e. freezes & hangs, however after a number of attempts I am eventually able to copy the files over to the HD - although it is so slow.... & back-up to an external HD. Now here's the strange thing, once the NEFfiles are transfered onto the HD Lightroom will import them, but not without a fight. Again in the import module it freezes/hangs but when the "lightroom is not responding" message comes up, if you choose the "wait until lightroom" responds option it eventually imports the chosen files.
I've tried all the usual fixes - start a new catalogue, delete preferences & .lock files, unistall & re-install, update codecs for Nikon files, recalibrate the colour profile, use a generic sRGB profile, update ATI drivers etc
All other modules etc appear to work fine, although I don't use all of them, but certainly everything in library and develop aooears normal
As it currently stands I'm having to reconsider whether I want to continue investing in the Lightroom system as it just isn't acceptable for this to keep occuring and no fixes released by Adobe. I've used lightroom since 1.0 and Nikon NEf files through that time, but since version 3 it has become impossible to utilise
I'd be really grateful for any help or advice, be eternally grateful if someone has a fix or even better if Adobe fixed the bleeding issue!
Cheers
Steve

Unlike the end of the linked thread, the OP does not have the problem of a hidden-dialog waiting for input because the import finishes eventually when importing from the hard-drive.
In the linked thread, it is possible that Adobe would be entirely to blame for such a situation, but it is more likely that they are relying on the operating system and the display-driver to do certain things, and so are only responsible for detecting that something is wrong and handling it more gracefully. The problem might magically go away with the next version of LR, the next version of the display driver, or the next operating-system service pack or update. The hope would be that Adobe can reproduce the issue, and either fix their code, or at least provide a workaround for a buggy display driver. A main challenge for Adobe is that they have created their own look and feel for the product and have to get it to act the same on both the Windows and Mac platforms. That is not easy, and there are likely many bugs still to discover and fix.

FLV import Problem / .264 files slow

Hey,
for my work I have to use hours of .flv files daily. These are VODs from Twitch which I have to edit. Being stream related content these files often get "corrupted" because of internet connection/Twitch problems. In the .flv files this is not really a problem - most of the time you see a brief stutter but everything else is fine. Now I obviously can not import .flv files into Premiere Pro CC so I used FLV Extract to export a .aac and .264 file from the FLV container. These files import just fine into Premiere Pro but the main problem here is that when working with a .264 file the previews render VERY slow and often red frames appear. Also when exporting a file it takes MUCH time and barely uses my CPU at all (tested with other files and formats and they worked just fine).
It is also interesting to note that the .aac and .264 files have different lengths and thus get out of sync. How much depends on the source .flv file (most likely how much it got corrupted due to various reasons?)
My PC specs are 32 GB RAM, GeForce GTX760 Video Card, I7-4790 CPU & 3 7200 RPM HDDs

Now my first question would be: why has Premiere Pro such difficulties when working with these .264 files? Do I lack any codecs? Are some settings in Premiere Pro wrong? Is there any workaround or solution? As long as Premiere Pro works fine with these files I wouldn't mind them being out of sync since I can fix that manually.
I also tried using FFMPEG to change the container from .flv to .mp4 which worked and resulted in me being able to import the files into Premiere Pro but even though the video and audio track had the same length this time - they were still out of sync and much more difficult to re-sync them if at all possible so this didn't help much. I also tried video converter programs to convert to other file formats but the out of sync problem still carried over.
So as an alternative question: is there any way to convert the original .flv files properly so I am able to import and work with them? Meaning they are still in sync and keep the original quality.
The solutions should be as efficient as possible (quick) since I have to go through hours of content every day.
I am very grateful to anyone trying to help. It is VERY much appreciated. Thanks.
(for a test file you can download a flv file using www.twitchtools.com with the video link http://www.twitch.tv/trumpsc/b/537543702 - a corrupted part that ALWAYS speeds up is in the first few minutes (if you download part 7) when he opens the arena rewards when the key comes down)

I very much appreciate the help. Sorry for any lack of clarity or apparent density on my part. Up late last night.
I have a single internal drive formatted "Mac OS Extended (journaled)". It is a 160GB drive with 20GB free.
I have two maxtor FW 400 160GB drives. Each with about 80GB free. One plugged into the back of the computer, one into the front. Not daisy chained.
I have a P2 Store which connects via USB 2, and the HVX which I connect to the FW 800 port on the back of the computer.
Like I said, I've tried every conceivable combination of these devices. I've imported directly from the camera via FW to the internal drive using FCP. I've gone from the camera directly to both of the FW drives using FCP. I've also transferred from the camera, to the internal drive, then imported using FCP from the internal to the FW drive set as my scratch disc. And so forth.
But no matter what the permutation, I get the same result. And again, it doesn't seem to be an issue of moving these blocks of data around. That seems to happen just fine as far as I can tell. If I start the import, then watch the clips being created in the capture folder, they agregate just fine. It's only once they've reached their full data size (in ref'c to the original mxf files) that the import process hangs. The larger the clips, the longer the hangs (though fewer in number, obviously).
I deleted the FCP preferences and repaired permissions on my internal HDD with no alteration of the problem.
The only other observation I've had, is that when the hangups happen, and the little ball starts spinning, I also hear a high pitched whining from inside the computer case. It does not sound like usual HDD work.
Hope that I've given a better sense of the situation. Thanks for bearing with me

Why Does iMOVIE Crash When I Start To Import A Video?

I'm running iMovie 6.0.3 and every time I start to import video from my camcorder it crashes. This problem started about a year ago. Why can't MAC make anything that just keeps working? So why is it doing this now? Sometimes if I start playing the video long before I open iMovie it will prevent the crash but occasionally it will crash while I'm in the middle of a project. My computer's capacity is 232.57 GB. Available is 23.71 GB. Used is 208.85 GB. The project I'm working on is about 8 minutes long. Do I have to do some expensive update or something? Is my computer melting down? By the way...when I say it "crashes" I mean the program just closes my MAC doesn't freeze up.

Hi
Don't know if FCE 3.5 will run under Mac OS X.5 but it does under X.4.11
I like it better than FCE 4 - I have no HD 19x9 ADHD ???? Camera but a miniDV tape 4x3 one.
There are some to learn - major stumbling stone is to get started
• in iMovie - a project is created for You (iMovie project icon (disguised folder)
• in FCE You need to build this Your self (about 4 clicks)
This can be very easy or very complicated due to once personality
(my grand-ma had a vaccum-cleaner with two buttons = Useless - so You never know)
You start with NOT starting FCE but
a. You need space for Your movie project. Best option is an external hard disk
(this MUST be formatted as Mac OS Extended and SHOULD be a FireWire one / USB/USB2
performs badly)
b. On this external hard disk, Cerate a Folder (cmd-Shift-N)
c. Name it properly eg Vacation 2009-06-10
d. Now start FCE
e. Go to FinalCut menu/Easy Set-up and select type of project eg DV-NTSC (if in US or DV-PAL if in EU)
f. Go to FinalCut menu/System settings
Here are the 4 clicks where You select Your Scartch to go to the new Folder You made
on Your external hard disk. I set same folder to all of the possible selections
in this window, to keep material together (as an iMovie project)
g. Close and now in FCE main view just Save Your (un-started) project and I
select to save this to the same folder too.
Now I keep everything in one place and can start importing/Capture my material
This just to get You going.
There are some more differences and it is a Good Advice to buy a book that helps
You on the way eg by Tom Wolsky - cheque at Amazone or alike
But the freedom is emensly
• change size up or down
• stack multiple wideo windows ontop of each other pic-in-pic
• getting a horizon in line (slight rotation)
and so much more

JSPM: Error while detecting start profile for instance with ID _c.

Hi Experts,
we have an error when we start JSPM with message "cannot initialize application data. Error while detecting start profile for instance with ID _c." . Until now nothing has been updated yet. The system can be started up and shut down without any problem. The profiles are found in /usr/sap/PMA/SYS/profile
Our BI system is currently Netweaver 7.0 with SPS14. We plan to update it to SPS20. But when we start JSPM, we have abover error.
could somebody give a help? Thank you very much.

LR3.2 import problem on computer with Windows OS

LR3.2 import problem on Windows OS
This is a continuation of a question that I posed on August 22, 2010 in the discussion string "Cannot import CR2". I have not been able to resolve the issue of importing an image into an existing folder location. I had not been able to work on this issue for a number of weeks due to other circumstances, until today.   Note that the following people had attempted to provide answers and suggestions already: ssprengel, JayS In CT.
I use a laptop with a Windows operating system and a Macintosh desktop with Snow Leopard. I run Lightroom on both of them. The Windows laptop has Windows Vista Home service pack 2, version 6.0 [6002]. Around August 12th I upgraded from Lightroom 2 [481478], to Lightroom 3 on the laptop. I left the LR2 on the laptop as well as LR3. On September 12th I upgraded the laptop to LR3.2. No other changes have been to the laptop or its software applications that I know of.
My current attempts at resolving the issue reveal that when I created a new catalog "Test Catalog" in LR3 and saved that catalog to my desktop new folder labeled "Test Catalog" that I can import an image into LR3.2 to a new folder on the laptop's desktop. I then deleted the images via LR3.2 Folders Remove function and tried to import the images into an existing folder as presented in the LR3.2 Import dialog, but get the error message "The following files were not imported because they could not be read.".   When I import images into a new folder placed on the desktop, I can use all functions in LR3 e.g. Develop module. I cannot import images into existing folders on the laptop's hard drive - I have tried importing into the entire existing folders in the following hierarchy: c:\users\Michael\My Documents\My Pictures\2010 but always get the same error message.
LR3.2 does correctly backups upon exiting each time I quit the program, so I know that there isn't any issue of writing to that backup folder which is contained in an upper folder that contains the lightroom catalogs. I have even created a new Word file, saved it into the folder with Lightroom catalogs, opened it up, modified it, saved it, and saw that it works OK, so that tells me there is no problem with a Read-Only folder attribute.
I cannot recall if upon the upgrade from LR2.6 to LR3 that I chose to upgrade the catalog to LR3 version. Would that matter, if yes, what do I verify, how do I manual upgrade the catalog.
History of actions between August 10th that I have taken follows between the [[[[ and ]]]]:
[[[[Preference settings for Default Catalog are set to start with a specific catalog that I call "Lightroom master catalog", it is not set to the "Load most recent catalog".
All of the following were using my laptop: Previously I had no problem with LR2 for any functions. I just purchased an Epson 7000 media storage device, and in early August and practiced importing images into LR2, and those images were pulled in OK. Next, I upgraded to LR3. I discovered that the Epson's images had been placed into a wrong folder when I opened LR3. I used the remapping function in LR3 to move the images into the correct folder. Next, I used a SanDisk card reader to import images into LR3 into an existing folder of images, but the following error message appeared "the following files were not imported because they could not be read" (Import Results said 'some import operations were not performed'). I tried importing a single image, and multiple images, but had the same error. I tried switching the card reader to each of 4 different USB port on the laptop, with the same error occurring on each USB port used.
In order to try to isolate the problem. I took the SanDisk card reader with the memory card and successfully imported the images into LR3 on my Macintosh desktop computer; so to me the problem is not the card reader or the memory card. I also used the SanDisk recovery disk while using my laptop to look at the files on the memory card and I could see all the images correctly while in the recovery program, but I have not copied the images to the laptop's hard disk, and have not tried an import into the laptop's LR3. I did not import images directly from my camera to the laptop LR3 since I did not think it would help with the troubleshooting.
I then ran the Repair from the Adobe LR3 CD upgrade disk, on my laptop. Then I tried doing the import using the SanDisk reader and memory card, but the same problem occurred and same error message, that the files could not be imported (I was trying to import into a folder of existing images). I then used the Laptop's Control Panel function to remove LR3 application. Then I did a fresh upgrade of LR3 on my laptop, but the same error message and I am unable to do any import of the memory card from the card reader. I then tried to do an image import from the Epson 7000 into the laptop, and the same error message and I am unable to do any import into a folder with existing images.   I then tried doing an image import into LR2 on the laptop, and got the same problem to occur when trying to import into an existing folder of images. I have a couple of Canon EOS SLR digital cameras, and the issue occurs for any of the file types of the cameras.
Went into LR3 Preferences, General Tab, I now checked the previously unchecked box for Import Options - "Show import dialog when a memory card is detected".
Connected the Canon XTi directly with a cable to the laptop computer. Note that Canon's information said that Picture Transfer Protocol is automatically used when the XTi is directly connected to a computer, so I did not need to change anything in the camera's menu for communications choices (there is no communication menu in fact). I selected one image and copied it to the laptop desktop. Tried to import it into LR3 into a folder of existing images but got the error message "Could not copy a file to the requested location." While in LR3, I changed the location of where the file would be copied into - any of my existing folders of images; tried 5 different folders, but kept getting the same error message.
With the card reader connected via USB port on the laptop, I copied one image file to the desktop, and then tried importing into LR3 into a folder of existing images. Got the error message "Could not copy a file to the requested location."]]]]

I am not clear if by 'import' you are trying to copy or move the files from a location to another or if you are adding the files to a catalog. My comments may not, therefore, be too helpful.
Firstly, with both LR2 and LR3 installed you will have both catalogs present, but if you try to open the LR2 catalog with LR3 you will be prompted to update the catalog. You will thus know which catalog you are working on.
Secondly, if you are reading direct from the camera, you should connect using the 'PC connection' mode.
Thirdly, there is an issue with reading .CR2 files directly from the early Canon DSLRs (in Europe named 300D, 350D, 400D). While they are visible with the Canon software, they can not be seen with Windows explorer nor can they be accessed with Lightroom.
I suggest that you take the CF card out of the camera and copy the files using Windows Explorer in to the destination folder. You are then sure that the files are on the PC.
If you have the right Codec installed, you can view them with Windows photo gallery; if you don't, you can use one of the Canon software packages to view the files. You are then sure that the files are not corrupted.
Then import the files to your LR catalog using the normal import routine selecting 'add without moving'. I have tried this routine successfully using my 350D using both LR1.x and LR3.x. If that doesn't work - I'm lost.

Final Cut Pro/GY-HD111E import problems?

Final Cut Pro/GY-HD111E import problems?
With a brand new Mac Pro and very latest Final Cut Studio complete with updates I'm having a little problem trying to import footage directly from a JVC GY-HD111E (yes I'm in PAL land, UK) via FireWire into FCP.
Footage is 720p/25p and timeline is set up in FCP that way.
I'm doing a 'capture now'. The first clip I'm trying to import is about 45 minutes long with no cuts/breaks whatsoever.
What happens is after about 60 seconds or so, it FCP automatically breaks the clip for no reason and starts a new one, trouble is, when it does this I lose about 4 seconds of footage at that point.
It continues to break clips randomly, sometimes after 40 seconds or so, sometimes after 95 seconds, but usually between 30 seconds and 2 minutes and each time it starts a new clip I lose between 1 and 6 seconds.
As I say, there are zero breaks or cuts in this clip, I have a 45 minute clip that was shot in one take, not even a pause anywhere.
Is this a JVC issue or a Final Cut issue?
It's a pain as it simply means I can't import my 9 hours of footage hence I can't get on with this project.
Any ideas why this phenomenon is happening?
Thanks guys.

I mean I get the same errors.
Let me explain again.
There are NO start/stop/pauses in this clip.
I'm trying to import just ONE clip with no breaks, again, there are NO start/stop/pause, it is one continuous clip of 15 minutes duration.
The JVC creates some sort of errors at the Firewire output stage, it drops frames or other errors, FCP gets confused and creates a new clip, even though it is the same clip, but due to the GoP structure, it looses a few seconds too hence I can't import the footage as I keep loosing bits here and there mid clip. It is randam, every 30 to 100 seconds or so it will do this.

ITunes 7.1 Importing Problems

Just installed iTunes 7.1 on Vista, and upgraded my G4 mini to 7.1 as well. I'm now having problems importing existing MP3s into iTunes. I have the "Copy files to iTunes music folder" option checked in preferences, but if I try to drag/drop a folder with MP3s into my library, iTunes will import/copy a few files and then ignore the remainder.
For example, I have a folder with 20 songs ripped from CD. I drag/drop this folder into the iTunes library. iTunes starts to import the songs, and copies 4 or 5 files, and then the import stops. It doesn't always happen on the same song, so I don't think it's a corrupt file. The same behavior occurs both in Vista 7.1 and on the Mac mini 7.1 as well. I'm at a loss as to why it will only import some of the files, and why it decides not to import at different files each time I try.
Anyone else know/experience this?
Thanks,

I've answered my own question after trying a few things. Here's what solved my problem.
I moved my iTunes library out of the My Music folder, which was the default folder for Windows Media Player rips, and was also included in WMP's monitored folders. There is some sort of conflict with Windows Media Player's monitor folders function when it comes to adding songs to the iTunes library and copying them to the iTunes music folder. It's like WMP intercepts the file so iTunes gets confused and stops.
As soon as I moved my iTunes library to a place where it wasn't monitored by WMP all was good again. I can now add folders to my library with copy files to iTunes music folder checked, and all works well.
From what I've seen, there are others on this board with this problem (in other threads). I hope my fix works for you!

Language Import problem

Hello all,
We met a language problem after SMLT importing ZH language.
Our system is ECC 6.0 SR3, newly installed, support package level:
SAP_BASIS    SAPKB70014
SAP_APPL      SAPKH60011
after installing, I import language from DVD 51033496_6, and then, I logon system with ZH language, most of the words are displayed as Chinese but strange is that some descritptions (when I click F4) are displayed as blank, function consultant said it should be displayed as normal. so, I'm confused wether there are some more language I need to import.
Currently in SMLT, under Chinese, there are two items:
Imported packges:SAPKLZHM10
Suplemented ith: ENGLISH
I have following two questions:
1. do I need to import anymore languae packages in order to display all chinese correctly?
2. do I need to import netweaver lanuages? since some tcodes like DB02, SM37 are still in english
3. is it obligatory to download othe language packages in solution manager? because I search "language neweaver" in service market place, but no record returned.
Thank you very much for all.
Freshman

Hello Freshman,
As you are running an ECC 6.0 SR3, you have used the correct language package to install ZH language (that is, package SAPKLZHM10 from DVD 51033496_6).
But installing the language package is just the first step that you have to perform when installing a new language in the system.
This is what you have to do next to complete the Chinese language installation:
1. Install the language part of Support Packages.
If Support Packages have been applied into the system before installing ZH language, the texts in ZH included in those Support Packages are not available yet in your system. Therefore, you must proceed as follows:
    SMLT --> single click on 'Chinese' to select it --> Language --> Special Actions --> Import Support Packages
a new screen will be displayed with all the Support Packages of your system. If any of them has a red light, it means that the ZH texts from that package are not in your system, so you have to click the 'Go to next screen' button. Now you will see a list with the Support Packages that had a red light in the previous screen; clicking again the 'Go to next screen' will start the import of the Chinese texts stored on those Support Packages.
2. Now you have to supplement Chinese language with English in all the clients of the system, starting with client 000. In order to do it logon into client 000 and go to:
    SMLT --> single click on 'Chinese' to select it --> Language --> Supplement Language
if a screen pops-up with information about the Secondary Language, just click 'Yes' to continue.
Write anything you want in the 'Description' field, leave the default options and click 'Execute' to start the supplementation.
Once that it finishes, do the same in all the other existing clients in the system.
3. Finally, go to transaction SE38 and execute report RSTLAN20. In the selection screen that is displayed after executing the program select all the check boxes. It will refresh the language load from the buffers.
After that check the screens again, this time they should not be displayed as blank. Anyhow, if you have any problem update this thread and I'll have a look at it.
Regarding your second question about importing the netweaver language package, it is not needed. The language package for ECC 6.0 is enough. You must take into account that the degree of translation of Chinese is 0 (it can be seen in SMLT, double click in 'Chinese'). It means that SAP has only delivered some texts translated into Chinese, you cannot expect to have all the texts in the system in Chinese. For the languages with degree of translation lower than 2, most of the "technical" transactions (DB02, ST04, etc) are not translated and will be displayed in the supplementary language (English in your case).
And regarding the Solution Manager language package, in an ECC 6.0 system you don't have to install any Solution Manager language package.
But if you have a Solution Manager system, you must use the corresponding language package created for Solution Manager systems. Depending on your Solution Manager release, you have to use one of these DVD: (you will find all the information about which DVD and language package corersponds to each release in [SAP Note 330104|http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/330104|Link to SAP Note 330104] )

Making a magic iMovie not magical. Having import problems

Everytime I start the import process of "making a magic iMovie", the import process will stop after inconsistent periods of time. Sometimes 5 minutes, sometimes 30 minutes. I've only had one 60 min tape import completely without interruption. I've changed firewire ports, opened Garageband and played a few notes, run mac sweeper. Nothing seems to work. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I too am experiencing the same problem. I have never been able to import a complete 60 min tape.
Last time I tried I had roughly 20 minutes of footage with no gaps in the timecode and the import process stoppped after 4 minutes with a brief message "No Device Control". The camcorder kept on playing but the import process stopped and iMovie continued to makes titles and add transitions as if there were no more video.
Does anyone know what might corrupt or interrupt the firewire device control?
I'm using a Canon ZR40 camcorder. I have 3 firewire external hard drives daisy chained to one of the firewire ports. Footage is being captured to one of the external drives.
The other port is used to connect the camcorder.

Annoyed with JVC/Final Cut Pro import problem; will they ever fix this?

Annoyed with Final Cut Pro JVC import problem; will they ever fix this?
I've shot footage on JVC GY-HD111E in the UK in 720p/25p PAL mode.
I'm trying to import lots of short clips (average 10 seconds) into Final Cut Pro (latest version with 720p/25p support) with a new Mac Pro maxed out with ram and 3 extra internal HDs.
Problem is, on a scene-break i.e. pause/stop, Final Cut detects this and creates a new clip, but it takes about 5 seconds to 'searching for media" before it starts the new clip. Because some clips are only very short, this 5 second delay sometimes means I only get the final few frames of a clip, rather than the entire 5 seconds or so of it.
JVC UK are blaming Apple and are saying it is up to them to fix it as Premiere and Edius does not have this problem.
However, Symbiosis in the UK (who do HD-Connect box) say that the JVC ProHD cameras do not wrap the shots up properly at the end, they are kind of left open and this creates problems on scene-breaks.
I've tried turning off the "create new clip on timecode break" etc, but it does not make any difference, when I do this it simply quits capturing on a scene break. Besides I have about 300 cutaways like this and I don't want to spend the rest of the year breaking them up on the timeline as this would be a futile and long workflow.
I'm importing and working on a native HDV 720p/25p timeline and this is the way I want to work. I've already imported and edited 4 hours of footage, but these 4 hours were easy as all 4 tapes had no start/stop points, they were recorded continuously from beginning to end of tape for 64 minutes each time so importing was no problem; 1 clip per tape.
But now I've come to my 5 tapes containing hundreds of cutaways I'm kind of screwed and need some advise on how I can import them natively in HDV without losing this 5 seconds off the beginning of each clip whilst FCP searches for the media each time.
I've been told this issue is definately with FCP, any ideas how I can get around this?

I haven't heard of this JVC/FCP problem, so I can't comment on it. However, whoever shot the cutaways didn't do you, the editor, any favors.
I've been doing video since 1984, and I've got to say, anyone who shoots a scene that is only 5 or 6 seconds long on tape is making a huge mistake, and it's been that way since the beginning of computerized editing in the late 70s.
Shoot at least 5 seconds of pre-roll before the shot begins, then roll tape for at least 5 seconds after you've got the shot. That's the protocol I've followed for 22 years now. Tape is cheap, edit suite time isn't.
But laying down only 5 to 6 seconds for a scene is wrong, IMO.

Imovie Mac importing problem or Camcorder problem?

I run a small business for kids parties. I video the kids dancing along to a track they have recorded (played on a cd player). Then i import the video, turn off the camcorder sound and import the finished mixed track of their singing and sync the picture and audio together. This has been working perfectly for over a year. But unfortunately in the last month when i try to sync up the audio track with the video, it starts off synced up perfectly, but gradually as the video goes on the video and audio become out of sync and by the end the video is either too fast or too slow. this is a huge problem! I thought it may the tapes in the video camera so i changed them and it's still doing it. Is this a video camera problem or computer importing problem. Can anyone help as it's ruining the kids DVDs!

I am surprised it has ever worked. That can normally only be done with synched professional equipment. Maybe they changed the CD player at the performance and the old one happened to play at the same rate as your Mac when it imports? (There is a slight difference between the playback speed between different players)
Or perhaps your video camera has become slightly worn, so it pulls the tape slower?
There are endless possibilities for problems with your setup.
I think you should take a look at the "add scaled" tip at the bottom here:

(Instead of adding the extracted audio from iMovie, you should add the CD audio.)

Error in START profile!!!!

Hey SAP Gurus,
I have a problem with the START profile.
I seem to be getting the following error :-

Hi Ashish,
This issue may be due to the DIR_CT_RUN parameter not specified.Provide your kernel location to the DIR_CT_RUN parameter and retry
You can also replace your start profile with the below template to make it work
SAPSYSTEMNAME = <SID>
SAPGLOBALHOST = <hostname>
SAPSYSTEM = 01
INSTANCE_NAME = DVEBMGS<inst no>
DIR_CT_RUN = <kernel location>
DIR_EXECUTABLE = $(DIR_INSTANCE)\exe
DIR_PROFILE = $(DIR_INSTALL)\profile
PF = $(DIRPROFILE)\<SID>_DVEBMGS<inst no>_<hostname>
Copy SAP Executables
Start_Program_00 = immediate $(DIR_CT_RUN)\sapcpe$(FT_EXE) pf=$(_PF)
Start ABAP database
DB = $(DIRCT_RUN)\strdbs.cmd
Start_Program_01 = immediate $(_DB) <SID>
Start SAP messaging service
MS = $(DIREXECUTABLE)\msg_server$(FT_EXE)
Start_Program_02 = local $(_MS) pf=$(_PF)
Start application server
DW = $(DIREXECUTABLE)\disp+work$(FT_EXE)
Start_Program_03 = local $(_DW) pf=$(_PF)
Start internet graphics server
IG = $(DIREXECUTABLE)\igswd$(FT_EXE)
Start_Program_04 = local $(_IG) -mode=profile pf=$(_PF)

Aperture 3.2.1 Import problems.

Aperture 3.2.1 Import problems. I can not import. Complete system hang when I try. Have to force reboot. I made a new user and everything seems to work fine under that user. I must have something conflicting in my admin user but I have had no luck finding it. I have tried rebuilding the library (all three options) but to no avail. Aperture will run fine as long as I do not try to import. This is very frustrating, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Tim,
If a problem only occurs when working from one account, then very often faulty user preferences or presets are the cause. Try to remove your user preference file, and if that should not suffice, move your presets to the desktop, as described in the Aperture 3: Trouble Shooting Basics:
(Caution: I see, you are running Lion: Because of Lion's non-preemptive Process Management you can never be sure if an application really has quit, even if it looks in the Dock as if the Application has finished. So it is very important to log off, before you launch Aperture again, after you changed something in the libraries like described below.)
Delete the user preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Aperture back to its original settings. This will not impact your image files or your library. To reset your Aperture user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
Quit Aperture.
In the Finder choose Go to folder from the Go menu.
Type~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field. Press the Go button.
Remove the "com.apple.Aperture.plist" file from the Preferences folder. (and log off and log in again!)
Move the user created presets, keyword lists, and so on...
Quit Aperture.
In the Finder choose Go to folder from the Go menu.
Type~/Library/Application Support/Aperture in the "Go to the folder" field. Press the Go button.
Move the contents of this folder to your Desktop (and log off and log in again!)
Start Aperture and see if the issue is resolved. Note: Permanently removing these files will delete presets, metadata sets, keyword sets, and so on. If moving these files to the Desktop does not resolve the issue, move them back to their original location to restore the presets, adjustment chain presets, and metadata sets. In no case will removing these files affect metadata, keywords, or adjustments already applied to images.
If none of this should help, try to boot into safe mode (hold down shift after the start up chime), to see if you have conflicting plugins or video drivers etc. installed in your admin library.
