T30 Important questions regarding parts

I have a 2.2G T30 system. If I open up the one panel on the bottom of the unit I see there is 2 port and each port has something plugged into it. In the one port is a Wireless card, in the other port is a card which has part number 26P8477 on it. When I looked it up I saw that it had to do with my ethernet or phone port. Not sure which. So I have two questions. ANd we shall see if I get any answers.
1. What is this 26P8477 device in my T30?
2. If you look at both this 26P device and the Wireless card there is a small two pin connector. Currently this connect is attached to the Wireless card. Is this correct or should be connected to both devices?
You can email me directly at [email protected]

Ok maybe I did not make myself clear on the last posting. I am not the most computer savy and know all the buzz words and such. Here is what I can tell you and hope that it clears things up.
1. T30 Flip laptop over. There are a number of removable panels. One covers the memory, the other has the NIC cards and such.
2. Remove the cover that is over the NIC cards. There are two ports. One is an edge type connector the other kind of like D shaped.
3. In the edge connector slot I have a wifi lan card. I know this from the part number. Opposite the end of the edge connector there is a small 2 pin I beleive connection. There is also a wire that goes somewhere that has the mated other half of this type of connection.
4. In the D shaped hole there is the 26P8477 CDC modem card. This card also has on it the mated other half of the type of connection mentioned above.
5. So since both the wifi NIC and the Modem card both have the male portion of the connection and there is only one wire in this area and on the end of that wire is the other 1/2 the connection. WHICH ONE OF THESE TWO CARDS SHOULD HAVE THE WIRE ATTACHED TO IT? Or should it have a splitter? Or does it not even matter which one of these cards gets the connection?
Hope this helps.

  • ThinkPad Twist s230u important questions regarding performance

    Hello everyone,
    So, I recently bought a ThinkPad Twist (specifically the 33472GU, even though outlet said 3347XF4) from the outlet to upgrade the laptop that I take to class and I have to make a few questions that I hope get answered. I haven't really seen much attention paid to this particular device and it saddens me to see the lack of attention that it has seen.
    In particular, I would have liked to see more response and helpfulness from Lenovo staff to address these concerns, but if anyone else has input, please let me know. Here is my list:
    1.) It is true when they say the battery doesn't last long. I can barely squeeze 3/4 hours out of it depending on what I am doing. This is considering that I turned many of the settings down and even turned off things like bluetooth and windows 8 effects. How can Lenovo advertise 6/7 hours on this thing? No, my battery is not dead, in fact, it came with 46 mWh charge, better than what it was designed for (42 mWh). So I don't want to get sent to technical support to "fix" it. I want an honest answer and indication from staff that this issue is being taken seriously and addressed.
    2.) With the above being said, is there a definitive answer from anyone about how I can extend my battery life to at least 5 hours without crippling the machine? I'm not willing to turn EVERYTHING off. That defeats the purpose of having bought the twist in the first place.
    3.) Does anyone know when the Haswell version of the device is coming out? Not that I really have a choice because I already have this one. I just want to know that I didn't buy it weeks before a release so I don't feel cheated.
    Otherwise, it's a great unit and concept in general. I was considering the x230t because it has everything and more (including battery life). But unfortunately it's a little overkill, much more expensive, and I couldn't find many configurations on the outlet (probably because nobody wants to return theirs).
    I would appreciate any and all helpful recommendations/explanations (particularly honest ones) and I thank you for reading this.

    I think our estimate of 3-4 hours of battery life is closer to real world if you are actively using the computer.
    From the many forum posts, I have come to believe that the only way to exceed 5 hours is to replace the hard drive with an SSD.  I have gotten such good performance after reinstalling from scratch and getting the msata working that it is hard for me to justify the $200 for extra battery life and the annoying pauses when the harddrive shock sensor is triggered.
    For me, this was a "you get what you paid for" situation.  I would have liked 8G of RAM and the i7 processor, but the i5 is acceptable.  The only way I think you will be satisfied is if you go SSD instead of the HD.  Good luck.

  • Very important question regarding upgrade

    I want to get the Droid Incredible 2 when I am allowed to upgrade (7/27) and I have a feature phone. I was going to activate a Blackberry Curve 8330 but I was wondering, if I got the 30$ personal unlimited data, would I be grandfathered in and keep unlimited data when I upgrade at the end of July?
    Better yet, do you think its possible for me to upgrade early? My phone is slightly messed up, not sending texts or recieveing calls sometimes. and some buttons do not work.
    Thanks for any help.

  • Questions regarding customisation/configuration of PS CS4

    Hello
    I have accumulated a list of questions regarding customising certain things in Photoshop. I don't know if these things are doable and if so, how.
    Can I make it so that the list of blending options for a layer is by default collapsed when you first apply any options?
    Can I make it possible to move the canvas even though I'm not zoomed in enough to only have parts of it visible on my screen?
    Is it possible to enable a canvas rotate shortcut, similar to the way you can Alt+RightClick to quickly change brush size?
    Is it possible to lock button positions? Sometimes I accidentally drag them around when I meant to click.
    Is it possible to lock panel sizes? For example, if I have the Navigator and the Layers panels vertically in the same group, can I lock the height of the navigator so that I don't have to re-adjust it all the time? Many panels have a minimum height so I guess what I am asking for is if it's possible to set a maximum height as well.
    Is it possible to disable Photoshop from automatically appending "copy" at the end of layer/folder names when I duplicate them?
    These are things I'd really like to change to my liking as they are problems I run into on a daily basis.
    I hope someone can provide some nice solutions

    2.  No.  It's a sore spot that got some forum time when Photoshop CS4 was first released, then again with CS5.  It's said that the rules change slightly when using full-screen mode, though I personally haven't tried it.
    3.  Not sure, since I haven't tried it.  However, you may want to explore the Edit - Keyboard Shortcuts... menu, if you haven't already.
    4.  What buttons are you talking about?  Those you are creating in your document?  If so, choose the layer you want to lock in the LAYERS panel, then look at the little buttons just above the listing of the layers:
    5.  There are many, many options for positioning and sizing panels.  Most start with making a panel visible, then dragging it somewhere by its little tab.  One of the important features is that you can save your preferred layout as a named workspace.  Choose the Window - Workspace - New Workspace... to create a new named workspace (or to update one you've already created).  The name of that menu is a little confusing.  Once you have created your workspace, if something gets out of place, choose Window - Workspace - Reset YourNamedWorkspace to bring it back to what was saved.
    You'll find that panels like to "stick together", which helps with arranging them outside of the Photoshop main window.
    As an example, I use two monitors, and this is my preferred layout:
    6.  No, it's not possible to affect the layer names Photoshop generates, as far as I know.  I have gotten in the habit of immediately naming them per their usage, so that I don't confuse myself (something that's getting easier and easier to do...).
    Hope this helps!

  • I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac Pro

    I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac pro (early 2009).
    These questions might seem stupid to many of you, but, as my last, in fact my one and only, computer before the Mac Pro was a IICX/4/80 running System 7.5, I am a complete novice regarding this particular matter.
    A few days ago I installed a WD3000HLFS VelociRaptor 300GB in bay 1, and moved the original 640GB HD to bay 2. I now have 2 bootable internal drives, and currently I am using the VR300 as my startup disk. Instead of cloning from the original drive, I have reinstalled the Mac OS, and all my applications & software onto the VR300. Everything is backed up onto a WD SE II 2TB external drive, using Time Machine. The original 640GB has an eDrive partition, which was created some time ago using TechTool Pro 5.
    The system will be used primarily for photo editing, digital imaging, and to produce colour prints up to A2 size. Some of the image files, from scanned imports of film negatives & transparencies, will be 40MB or larger. Next year I hope to buy a high resolution full frame digital SLR, which will also generate large files.
    Currently I am using Apple's bundled iPhoto, Aperture 2, Photoshop Elements 8, Silverfast Ai, ColorMunki Photo, EZcolor and other applications/software. I will also be using Photoshop CS5, when it becomes available, and I will probably change over to Lightroom 3, which is currently in Beta, because I have had problems with Aperture, which, until recent upgrades (HD, RAM & graphics card) to my system, would not even load images for print. All I had was a blank preview page, and a constant, frozen "loading" message - the symbol underneath remained static, instead of revolving!
    It is now possible to print images from within Aperture 2, but I am not happy with the colour fidelity, whereas it is possible to produce excellent, natural colour prints using its "minnow" sibling, iPhoto!
    My intention is to buy another 3 VR300s to form a 4 drive Raid 0 array for optimum performance, and to store the original 640GB drive as an emergency bootable back-up. I would have ordered the additional VR300s already, but for the fact that there appears to have been a run on them, and currently they are out of stock at all, but the more expensive, UK resellers.
    I should be most grateful to receive advice regarding the following questions:
    QUESTION 1:
    I have had a look at the RAID setting up facility in Disk Utility and it states: "To create a RAID set, drag disks or partitions into the list below".
    If I install another 3 VR300s, can I drag all 4 of them into the "list below" box, without any risk of losing everything I have already installed on the existing VR300?
    Or would I have to reinstall the OS, applications and software again?
    I mention this, because one of the applications, Personal accountz, has a label on its CD wallet stating that the Licence Key can only be used once, and I have already used it when I installed it on the existing VR300.
    QUESTION 2:
    I understand that the failure of just one drive will result in all the data in a Raid 0 array being lost.
    Does this mean that I would not be able to boot up from the 4 drive array in that scenario?
    Even so, it would be worth the risk to gain the optimum performance provide by Raid 0 over the other RAID setup options, and, in addition to the SE II, I will probably back up all my image files onto a portable drive as an additional precaution.
    QUESTION 3:
    Is it possible to create an eDrive partition, using TechTool Pro 5, on the VR300 in bay !?
    Or would this not be of any use anyway, in the event of a single drive failure?
    QUESTION 4:
    Would there be a significant increase in performance using a 4 x VR300 drive RAID 0 array, compared to only 2 or 3 drives?
    QUESTION 5:
    If I used a 3 x VR300 RAID 0 array, and installed either a cloned VR300 or the original 640GB HD in bay 4, and I left the Startup Disk in System Preferences unlocked, would the system boot up automatically from the 4th. drive in the event of a single drive failure in the 3 drive RAID 0 array which had been selected for startup?
    Apologies if these seem stupid questions, but I am trying to determine the best option without foregoing optimum performance.

    Well said.
    Steps to set up RAID
    Setting up a RAID array in Mac OS X is part of the installation process. This procedure assumes that you have already installed Mac OS 10.1 and the hard drive subsystem (two hard drives and a PCI controller card, for example) that RAID will be implemented on. Follow these steps:
    1. Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities).
    2. When the disks appear in the pane on the left, select the disks you wish to be in the array and drag them to the disk panel.
    3. Choose Stripe or Mirror from the RAID Scheme pop-up menu.
    4. Name the RAID set.
    5. Choose a volume format. The size of the array will be automatically determined based on what you selected.
    6. Click Create.
    Recovering from a hard drive failure on a mirrored array
    1. Open Disk Utility in (/Applications/Utilities).
    2. Click the RAID tab. If an issue has occurred, a dialog box will appear that describes it.
    3. If an issue with the disk is indicated, click Rebuild.
    4. If Rebuild does not work, shut down the computer and replace the damaged hard disk.
    5. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
    6. Drag the icon of the new disk on top of that of the removed disk.
    7. Click Rebuild.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2559
    Drive A + B = VOLUME ONE
    Drive C + D = VOLUME TWO
    What you put on those volumes is of course up to you and easy to do.
    A system really only needs to be backed up "as needed" like before you add or update or install anything.
    /Users can be backed up hourly, daily, weekly schedule
    Media files as needed.
    Things that hurt performance:
    Page outs
    Spotlight - disable this for boot drive and 'scratch'
    SCRATCH: Temporary space; erased between projects and steps.

    (normally I'd link to Wikipedia but I can't load right now)
    Disk drives are the slowest component, so tackling that has always made sense. Easy way to make a difference. More RAM only if it will be of value and used. Same with more/faster processors, or graphic card.

  • Questions regarding creation of vendor in different purchase organisation

    Hi abap gurus .
    i have few questions regarding data transfers .
    1) while creating vendor , vendor is specific to company code and vendor can be present in different purchasing organisations within the same company code if the purchasing organisation is present at plant level .my client has vendor in different purchasing org. how the handle the above situatuion .
    2) i had few error records while uploading MM01 , how to download error records , i was using lsmw with predefined programmes .
    3) For few applications there are no predefined programmes , no i will have to chose either predefined BAPI or IDOCS . which is better to go with . i found that BAPI and IDOCS have same predefined structures , so what is the difference between both of them  .

    Hi,
    1. Create a BDC program with Pur orgn as a Parameter on the selection screen
        so run the same BDC program for different Put organisations so that the vendors
        are created in different Pur orgns.
    2. Check the Action Log in LSMW and see
    3.see the doc
    BAPI - BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces) are the standard SAP interfaces. They play an important role in the technical integration and in the exchange of business data between SAP components, and between SAP and non-SAP components. BAPIs enable you to integrate these components and are therefore an important part of developing integration scenarios where multiple components are connected to each other, either on a local network or on the Internet.
    BAPIs allow integration at the business level, not the technical level. This provides for greater stability of the linkage and independence from the underlying communication technology.
    LSMW- No ABAP effort are required for the SAP data migration. However, effort are required to map the data into the structure according to the pre-determined format as specified by the pre-written ABAP upload program of the LSMW.
    The Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
    More and more medium-sized firms are implementing SAP solutions, and many of them have their legacy data in desktop programs. In this case, the data is exported in a format that can be read by PC spreadsheet systems. As a result, the data transfer is mere child's play: Simply enter the field names in the first line of the table, and the LSM Workbench's import routine automatically generates the input file for your conversion program.
    The LSM Workbench lets you check the data for migration against the current settings of your customizing. The check is performed after the data migration, but before the update in your database.
    So although it was designed for uploading of legacy data it is not restricted to this use.
    We use it for mass changes, i.e. uploading new/replacement data and it is great, but there are limits on its functionality, depending on the complexity of the transaction you are trying to replicate.
    The SAP transaction code is 'LSMW' for SAP version 4.6x.
    Check your procedure using this Links.

  • Questions regarding chapter markers

    I've got a few questions regarding working with chapter markers. First a little background info. I'm working in CS 5.5. I used Dynamic Link to send a Premiere sequence to Encore. In Premiere, I've got another sequence that is an exact duplicate of the original, with just a little text added.
    I decided that I need to go back and add chapter markers, so I went through the initial Premiere sequence and added all the Encore Chapter Markers. I'd like all the chapter markers to be consistent in all three locations without having to re-do it manually each time.
    Is there any way to bring those markers into Encore withour re-importing the sequence? I kind of figured that was the point of using Dynamic Link, but the markers aren't showing up in Encore.
    And then, is there a way to copy those markers within Premiere from one sequence to the other?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    (Dear mods: a little overzealous with the thread moving. This had enough to do with Premiere Pro that it could have remained there... and saved me from retyping my reply.)
    Is there any way to bring those markers into Encore withour re-importing the sequence?
    This part is Encore. In the Encore Timeline containing the PPro sequence you're using with DL, select the sequence/asset, and go to Edit > Update Markers From Source. A warning dialog will pop up about replacing the markers; when you OK it, the markers positions and names will be updated.
    And then, is there a way to copy those markers within Premiere from one sequence to the other?
    It's not possible to copy and paste markers, but here's a workaround of sorts (assuming your sequences are the same duration and you want the markers at the same times):
    Drag the sequence that contains the chapter markers into the sequence that doesn't; because the Encore chapter markers are sequence markers, they'll turn into clip markers when you nest the sequence. Select this nested sequence, and then use the Next (or Previous) Clip Marker (found under Marker > Go to Clip Marker, or with keyboard shortcuts) to jump to each clip marker. When you land on one, add a chapter marker to the sequence; if you don't already, set up a keyboard shortcut for this and it will make adding the markers a breeze. Now, you'll have to add names, if you want them, but at least this will make matching the time much easier.

  • Question Regarding MIDI and Sample Accuracy

    Hi,
    I have 2 questions regarding MIDI.
    1. MIDI is moved by ticks. In the arrange window however, you can move a region by samples. When doing this, you can move within values of the ticks (which you can see on your position box that pops up) Now, will this MIDI note actually be played back at that specific sample point, or will it round the event to the closest tick? (example, if I have a MIDI note directly on 1.1.1.1, and I move the REGION in the arrange... will that MIDI note now fall on the sample that I have moved the region to, or will it be rounded to the closest tick?)
    2. When making a midi template from an audio region, will the MIDI information land exactly on the sample of the transient, or will it be rounded to the closest tick?
    I've looked through the manual, and couldn't find any specific answer to these questions.
    Thanks!
    Message was edited by: Matthew Usnick

    Ok, I've done some experimenting, and here are my results.
    I believe those numbers ARE samples. I came to this conclusion by counting (for some reason it starts on 11) and cutting a region to be 33 samples long (so, minus 11, is 22 actual samples). I then went to the Audio Bin window, and chose to view region length as samples. And there it said it: 22 samples. So, you can in fact move MIDI regions by samples!
    Second, I wanted to see if the MIDI notes in the region itself would be quantized to the nearest tick. I cut a piece of audio, so it had a 1 sample attack (zoomed in asa far as I could in the sample editor, selected the smallest portion, and faded in, and made the start point, the region start position). I saved the region as a new audio file, and loaded it up in the exs sampler.
    I then made a MIDI region, with and triggered the sample on beat 1 (quantized, on the money). I then went into the arrange window, made a fixed cycle length, and bounced the audio. I then moved the MIDI region by one sample to the right. I did this 22 times (which is the number of samples in a tick, at 120, apparently). After bouncing all of these (cycle position remained fixed, only the MIDI region was moving) I imported all the audio into the arrange on new tracks, and YES!!! The sample start was cascaded by a sample each time!
    SO.
    Not only can you move MIDI regions by sample, but the positions are NOT quantized to Logics ticks!
    This is very good news, and glad I worked this out!
    (if anyone thinks this sounds wrong, please correct me, but I'm pretty sure I proved it, in my test)

  • Some important questions on MDM functionality

    Hello All,
    I have some basic/imp questions to be understood on MDM 7.1 for a data consolidation project.
    1) When importing records in import manager, some of the records are failed with this error message "Import failed. Unable to find value map index". When checked the records in excel source, those records are having one or two fields carrying some square like char, ? and some non readable char (chinese, japanese). SAP is the source and SAP CRM has those characters successfully maintained in the system but MDM has some issue. How do we tackle these in MDM to successfully import those records?
    2) How do we archive a repository to create a new one which needs to have empty records in main table but need to carry look up table records?
    3) There are some records attached to workflow and when deleted those records from data manager, system throwing error "attached to workflow". Can anyone help me how to remove this attachment and delete those records?
    4)  The max number of records which can be imported at one shot in import manager is 100K? What happens when we exceed this records let's say 200K? Does the process go infinite loop? Is there a way out to import more than 100K records at one shot?
    5) What are the different types of data consolidation projects MDM Gurus encounter? Elaborate please.
    6) How many clients use Hierarchy, taxonomy, family tables for repository design? Is it very common or rare? And what would be some of the reference  use cases (articles) I could find in sdn blogs for these?
    Thx and appreciate for responding to these and also please let me know if any additional articles around MDM which are very popular and must see for a MDM consultant.
    -Mike

    1) When importing records in import manager, some of the records are failed with this error message "Import failed. Unable to find value map index". When checked the records in excel source, those records are having one or two fields carrying some square like char, ? and some non readable char (chinese, japanese). SAP is the source and SAP CRM has those characters successfully maintained in the system but MDM has some issue. How do we tackle these in MDM to successfully import those records?
    Thats a known issue in MDM 5.5 but i am not sure about the current 7.1 SP08 release it might by fixed too, MDM Import manager does not support some special characters,only solution is to identify those records which has special characters in excel and exclude them from the load, may by unmapping the field which has special characters and load the other fields data using the map. and then login to Data manager and copy the text to the corresponding record  manually.
    2) How do we archive a repository to create a new one which needs to have empty records in main table but need to carry look up table records?
    We can not create a repository from an archive with out main table data automatically. you need to clean the main table manually or by using an import map we can delete the data.
    Check the below link for deleting data from a main table through import manager:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d0245870-0adf-2b10-46a8-ca9dcf8e1a4d?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
    3) There are some records attached to workflow and when deleted those records from data manager, system throwing error "attached to workflow". Can anyone help me how to remove this attachment and delete those records?
    Click on workflows tab in data manager and you can find in which workflow the record is and check the history by right clicking on the record. if you have rights to stop the workflow do that , or else login with the workflow owner and stop the workflow so that record will come out of the workflow and will be able to be delete that record.
    4) The max number of records which can be imported at one shot in import manager is 100K? What happens when we exceed this records let's say 200K? Does the process go infinite loop? Is there a way out to import more than 100K records at one shot?
    Importing 100K data in one shot is not a good idea, and the system will go in infinte loop. you need to split the source files in to multiple chunks. chunk size in your system will be set in MDS.INI file, talk to your MDM Basis guy he will help you in getting details of those..
    5) What are the different types of data consolidation projects MDM Gurus encounter? Elaborate please.
    Let us know which kind of consolidation project you are working in, Tricks will be based on the particular requirement
    6) How many clients use Hierarchy, taxonomy, family tables for repository design? Is it very common or rare? And what would be some of the reference use cases (articles) I could find in sdn blogs for these?
    Again for this question it will be based on the requirements... i am sure you will be able to find blogs how to use hierarchies,taxanomies and family tables but not the client names...
    Hope i answered your questions.
    regards

  • Basic question regarding SSIS 2010 Package where source is Microsoft Excel 97-2005 and there is no Microsoft office or Excel driver installed in Production

    Hi all,
    I got one basic question regarding SSIS 2010 Package where source is Microsoft Excel 97-2005. I wanted to know How this package works in production where there is no Microsoft office or Excel driver installed. To check that there is excel driver installed
    or not, I followed steps: Start-->Administrative Tools--> Data Sources(ODBC)-->Drivers and I found only 2 drivers one is SQL Server and another one is SQL Server Native Client 11.0.
    Windows edition is Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise, Service Pack-1 and System type is 64-bit Operating System.
    We are running this package from SQL Server Agent and using 32-bit (\\Machine_Name\d$\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\Binn\DTExec.exe /FILE "\\Machine_Name\d$\ Folder_Name\EtL.dtsx" /CONFIGFILE "\\Machine_Name\d$\Folder_Name\Config.dtsConfig"
    /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E) to run this package. I opened the package and tried to find out what connection we have used and found that we have used "Excel Connection Manager" and ConnectionString=Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
    Source=F:\Fares.xls;Extended Properties="EXCEL 8.0;HDR=YES"; and source is ‘Excel Source’
    I discussed with my DBA and He said that SSIS is having inbuilt Excel driver but I am not convinced.
    Could anyone please clear my confusion/doubt?
    I have gone through various links but my doubt is still not clear.

    How Can I Get a List of the ODBC Drivers that are Installed on a Computer?
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2005/07/07/how-can-i-get-a-list-of-the-odbc-drivers-that-are-installed-on-a-computer.aspx
    Thanks Shiven:) If Answer is Helpful, Please Vote

    Hi S Kumar Dubey,
    In SSIS, the Excel Source and Excel Destination natively use the Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider which is installed by SQL Server. The Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider deals with .xls files created by Excel 97-2003. To deal with .xlsx files created by
    Excel 2007, we need the Microsoft ACE OLEDB Provider. SQL Server doesn’t install the Microsoft ACE OLEDB Provider, to get it we can install the
    2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components or
    Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable or Microsoft Office suit.
    The drivers listed in the ODBC Data Source Administrator are ODBC drivers not OLEDB drivers, therefore, the Excel Source/Destination in SSIS won’t use the ODBC driver for Excel listed in it by default. On a 64-bit Windows platform, there are two versions
    of ODBC Data Source Administrator. The 64-bit ODBC Data Source Administrator is C:\Windows\System32\odbcad32.exe, while the 32-bit one is C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe. The original 32-bit and 64-bit ODBC drivers are installed by the Windows operating system.
    By default, there are multiple 32-bit ODBC drivers and fewer 64-bit ODBC drivers installed on a 64-bit platform. To get more ODBC drivers, we can install the 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components or Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable.
    Besides, please note that 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components only install 32-bit ODBC and OLEDB drivers because it only has 32-bit version, but the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable has both 32- bit version and 64-bit
    version.
    If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

  • Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install tiger discs version 10.4.10. Is it safe to downgrade or not please help

    Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from Sep 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install (2) tiger discs version 10.4.10.  I want to know if it is safe and what are the necessary steps to do so. Also by downgrading im wondering if a lot of apps nowadays support tiger for example I have photoshop version 5 and 4 these are very important to me. One last question does anyone know of any reliable virus protection for mac that doesnt slow down your computer? because I have read that a lot of them do so. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it! Here are the specs for my iMac 
    Model Name:
    iMac
      Model Identifier:
    iMac7,1
      Processor Name:
    Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:
    2 GHz
      Number Of Processors:
    1
      Total Number Of Cores:
    2
      L2 Cache:
    4 MB
      Memory:
    2 GB
      Bus Speed:
    800 MHz

    Most of the time a perception of general slow performance is the result of installing third party junk alleged to speed up, "clean" or "optimize" your Mac, or to look for viruses that don't exist. Ideally you would know what you installed so you can uninstall it, but if you don't know or aren't sure there are techniques such as Safe Mode and creating a temporary user account to confirm that suspicion.
    If you open Activity Monitor it may show a process, or processes, that occupy a lot of your system's time.
    Slowness confined solely to web browser activity is often the result of an inexorable progress toward websites that demand ever more processor-intensive tasks. If your slow performance is strictly limited to web browsing, you might try disabling Flash by either uninstalling it, or use utilities such as ClickToFlash that allow you to control what Flash content gets loaded. Flash in itself is not inherently evil, but there is nothing to stop websites or the advertisers who pay for them from writing horrible Flash code that can do everything from hogging 100% of your CPU's time to causing random crashes. You can watch Activity Monitor as in the above to correlate these troublesome web pages with performance degradation.
    You are correct; if your computer shipped with Tiger you may certainly revert to it. I forgot that Tiger was shipping on new Macs as recently as five years ago. To downgrade it would be necessary to completely erase your hard disk and boot with the Tiger installation DVD, followed by installing it anew. Such drastic measures are not necessary and you are unlikely to be satisfied with the results anyway.
    Assuming your system is free of third party parasitic junk attached to OS X in an ill-conceived attempt to improve upon it, that your hard disk drive is sound and the boot volume has enough free space to work with, by far the best performance-enhancing improvement would be to add more memory. Buy as much as your computer can use and that you can afford. 2 GB is not that much any more.

  • Questions regarding Connection Pooling

    Hi
    i have some confusion regarding how connection pooling is implemented..i have been doing some digging in to this lately but the more i read the more confused i get. i have some doubts here, will any of the posters here kindly clear them
    a. Do i have to connect to my database via the DataSource method to take advantage of the connection pooling provided by my app server?..i have read conflicting information about this suggesting that Connection Pooling will not be provided to my app if i use DriverManager.getConnection()
    b. if i chose to use the DataSource method do i have to implement the ConnectionPoolDataSource interface to provide the connection pooling for my app?
    c. what is the best way to implement my own custom Connection pool?
    Thanx

    DriverManager.getConnection() literally creates, that is, builds a connection to the database using the values you previously supplied when you loaded the driver.
    A connection pool is an object that contains several already made connections to the database, and simply provides you with one of those existing connections. The confusion arises because a) the method name is frequently the same and b) the connection pool object calls the driver's getConnection() method to create several connections before lending any of them out.
    In other words:
    DriverManager.getConnection() builds a connection to the database.
    ConnectionPool.getConnection() fetches an existing connection.
    So, to answer your questions...
    A. This is correct. If you use DriverManager.getConnection(), you are indeed bypassing the Connection Pool entirely.
    B. I'm not familiar with DataSource specifically, but in general, a third party connection pool will either give you the interface (and you implement the details) or they will give you the class file containing the DataSource object. All you would have to do in the latter case is to import that file, then create a new instance of it using the new keyword ( DataSource foo = new DataSource(); ). I suspect DataSource is indeed the class file.
    C. Creating a connection pool is trivial and there are many examples of it - search on this forum or check out your favorite Java/JDBC programming book. Usually, the question "Should I use a connection pool and why?" is a more important question.

  • Service Contracts - Two Important Questions

    Hi everyone, I hope you're allright... I need to trouble you guys, this time with two questions regarding Service Contracts.
    We are implementing this functionality and we are doing ok so far. But, when I'm raising a WV contract by using txVA41, and, according to my customer's request, I would need to fill in the "WBS Element" field at ITEM level. This I can´t do, since this field is greyed out at item level (but it is not at header level). On the other hand, if I'm trying to make this on a Sales Order - Type Document, It works the other way around (It's greyed out on Header level and can be filled in on item level). Can anyone please explain to me how is this possible?? And more important, is there any way I can turn this situation around?? I would really need to fill the WBS element data on ITEM level on my service contract.
    The other problem we're facing is that, apparently due to regulation issues, (this is a configuration for a USA customer) they need to have on each contract item line the origin and destination data. (This company provides, between other things, data services (communication, bandwith, etc). So each three months they have to see a report indicating the origin and destination of each circuit they're providing in the contract, for tax issues (USF, for example). Did anyone face this problem in the past or have any ideas on how to fill in this data on item level????
    That's all for the moment... I would really really appretiate any help you can provide me since I'm a bit lost with this issues...
    Thanks in advance and best regads,
    Diego Casanueva

    Technically "AirPort Ready" indicates that your Mac has an internal slot for the proper Apple wireless card.
    A Power Mac G4 800 MHz has an internal slot for the original AirPort card. It is not compatible with the AirPort Extreme card
    AirPort Extreme is Apple's name for 802.11g. The original AirPort card is 802.11b.
    802.11g is backward compatible with 802.11b. In other words, 802.11b devices can connect to a 802.11g device as long as the 802.11g device is configured in an 802.11b compatible mode.
    AirTunes is only available on the AirPort Express.

  • Quick question regarding best practice and dedicating NIC's for traffic seperation.

    Hi all,
    I have a quick question regarding best practice and dedicating NIC's for traffic seperation for FT, NFS, ISCSI, VM traffic etc.  I get that its best practice to try and separate traffic where you can and especially for things like FT however I just wondered if there was a preferred method to achieving this.  What I mean is ...
    -     Is it OK to have everything on one switch but set each respective portgroup to having a primary and failover NIC i.e FT, ISCSI and all the others failover (this would sort of give you a backup in situations where you have limited physical NICs.
    -    Or should I always aim to separate things entirely with their own respective NICs and their own respective switches?
    During the VCAP exam for example (not knowing in advance how many physical NIC's will be available to me) how would I know which stuff I should segregate on its own separate switch?  Is there some sort of ranking order of priority /importance?  FT for example I would rather not stick on its own dedicated switch if I could only afford to give it a single NICs since this to me seems like a failover risk.

    I know the answer to this probably depends on however many physical NICs you have at your disposal however I wondered if there are any golden 100% rules for example FT must absolutely be on its own switch with its own NICs even at the expence of reduced resiliency should the absolute worst happen?  Obviously I know its also best practice to seperate NICs by vender and hosts by chassis and switch etc
