Time limit on multiple imacs

I would like to restrict the access to the computers for my kids. I want to use the parental controls to limit their time. This is pretty straight forward but I have two iMacs in the house.
I would like to limit the time on the computers to an hour a day. But because I have two computers I need to limit the time on each to a half an hour.
What I'd really like is to have a user account shared between both computers and only set the time limit to an hour and not have to split the time.
I don't want to completely block one computer to the kids. I'd rather they would use their time concurrently. This way they're potentially done in one hour rather than two.

Maybe this application will do what you want.

How can I enforce a time limit across 2 iMacs?

I have 2 iMacs in my house, 1 is my lil sister's iMac and one is mine, hers has gotten old and slow. On it she has parental controls allowing her to be on for certain times of the day for a certain amount of time. I'd like to make her account on my computer that she can use also, but I want to enforce the same parental controls as on the other iMac. My problem comes in with, how do I get the time limit to sync between the iMacs? So that she can't in theory use one imac till her 2 hours is up then come use mine for a bonus 2 hours; instead she should be restricted to 2 hours no matter wich iMac she divides up the time on.

I havent tried this but you might be able to sync the preference for parental controls between the two computers via sync software such as Chronosync, dropbox or maybe even iCloud. I dont know of any quick way to do that and this method is getting into a more advanced configuration. Its interesting to see in mountain lion that you can copy and paste the settings by clicking on the gear icon in System Preferences:Parental Controls. What system are you using on each machine?

This is not right: time limit on iMac G5 Repair Program

iMac G5 Repair Extension Program for Video and Power Issues
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302181
The program covers affected iMac G5 computers for up
to three years from the original date of purchase.
Apple sold iMacs G5 computers that were defective when they left the factory. Apple knows the cause of the defects. In some of the affected iMacs the defects manifested them earlier, in others later.
That Apple is using a time limit for the free repair is not right because the manifestation of the problem is usage dependant - those who used their iMac little (and the problem appears late) are being penalized. The correct way would have been to recall and repair all of the affected iMacs or put no time limit on the free repair.

Hello All,
I agree as well. My iMac G5 would not power up on Saturday morning. I bought it in Feb. 2005. I had the logic board and power supply replaced in May 2006. My apple care ran out in Feb of this year. Still, I called Apple, thinking perhaps something could be done.
The tech was very, very nice, and talked with his supervisor three times to see if perhaps I could get some kind of discount on a new computer. No go. And he explained that Apple is no longer making the old logic boards, they have to be made special, etc. I do feel a little cheated, since they replaced the logic board with one that had the same problems (opened it up--bulging capacitors with the cross mark on them). Well, it lasted two years after that, but we are not hard on our computers, and now I wish I'd have been less cautious with it. Maybe it would have died two months sooner when I still had Applecare!
Nevertheless, I still went out and bought a new iMac 24 in. 2.8 with 4 GB ram and a new Airport Extreme Base Station (Apple products are still the best I've ever used). I'm going to wait awhile to get Apple Care--to extend my coverage time as long as possible, since even a couple months would have helped in my situation.
Good luck to all you G5 owners. And thanks to all the people in the G5 forums that have been so helpful in the past. And Back-up often--you'll be glad you did.

Can you use the same Apple ID with multiple iMac's?

I am a teacher and I have multiple iMac's in my room and I need to be able to purchase apps one time and have them on all my computers. Is this possible? I know that I can do it with multiple iPad's but can I do with iMac's?

Yes logon to each computers itunes and away you go.
To redownload on each itunes got to the itunes store, select Purhased from the quick links section and navigate to what you want to redownload.
If you want to do it for apps that run on the Macs not on the iPad you need to login to the Mac AppStore and login with the same apple id and download apps that work on macs

Message getting stuck in XBQO queue - Time limit exceeded

Hi All,
We have a BPM scenario in our project (on PI 7.0 SP18), where bundle of PEXR2002 Payment IDocs are received as a single flat file. This file is then consumed by the BPM, to split the message into multiple payments using Java Mapping.
However, when we get an IDoc file of size greater than 5 MB (more than 500 IDocs), the message gets stuck in XBQO queue and eventually giving a SYSFAIL with the message "Time limit exceeded". Could you please let us know if you have encountered a similar issue and are aware of a possible solution.
Any pointers to this will be really appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
ROSIE SASIDHARAN

H Rosie,
1) Goto SXMB_ADM-> Integration Engine Configuration->Parameter EO_MSG_SIZE_LIMIT->possible values 0 - 2,097,151 (KB)
The parameter EO_MSG_SIZE_LIMIT enables serial processing of messages of a particular size. This applies for messages with the quality of service Exactly Once (EO). If the message is larger than the parameter value, the message is processed in a separate queue.
2) Goto SXMB_ADM-> Integration Engine Configuration->Parameter HTTP_TIMEOUT->possible values n Seconds, where n is a whole number.
The parameter Specifies the timeout for HTTP connections (time between two data packages at line level). This value overrides the system profile parameter icm/server_port_n (for example, icm/server_port_0 : PROT=HTTP, PORT=50044, TIMEOUT=900). If you do not set the parameter HTTP_TIMEOUT or if you set the parameter to 0, then the setting for the system profile parameter is used.
See SAP Note 335162 for sysfail issue....
Hope these will help u....

Is there a time limit for iCloud tabs from shut down devices?

Hi,
I have had some tabs left open on my (shut down) office iMac that I wanted to check during holidays by using iCloud tabs. It all went fine the first week, but some days later all tabs from that iMac had disappeared. Back in office once I opened Safari the tabs showed up again as iCloud tabs on my mobile devices.
Is there a sort of time limit for tabs to stay in iCloud after having shut down the Mac from which they originate? Can I turn of this feature if I don’t want it?
Regards,
Tom

Anyone? OK, I imagine most people don’t shut down their Mac for more then one week or so or they don’t want to check out work related links opened at office during holidays... Or does this just happen to me?

Time limit on Lion installs on more than one mac?

Hi
Query - I have 3 Macs (at home an intel iMac, at work a Xeon MacPro, and a Core 2 Duo 13: MacBook Pro). I plan to install Lion. However, I will probaly just install initially on my home iMac, and test out how it works, before attempting to install on my MacPro and MacBook Pro.
Is there a time limit on installing Lion once you purchase it?
It might be a month, or more, before I felt comfortable loading Lion on my other Macs.
Thanks

Heard of no time limit like you refer.

Error while executing a report : Time limit exceeded

Hello Experts,
i have executed a report and it took long time and finally throw an error saying that time limit is exceeded ,
please suggest how to resolve the problem
Thanks in Advance
Nitya

Hi Nitya H,
There are many resons behind Time out issue.
It is better to find where exaclty, our report is taking more time.
Below are the some of the bottle necks we need to monitor for time out issue:
1) OLAP query generation time.
2) F4 Search time.
3) Read Cache.
4) Write Cache.
Above features we can monitor @ RSRT transaction.
If OLAP query generation time is taking much time means ,pls regenerate the query @ RSRT.
For F4 search ,keep mater data as data retrival target.
For Read Cache and Write Cache increase the query memory @ RSRT.
Plse check the report and let me know if there is other bottle necks for query execution....
_Note:_ This is just a high level view but we can have many performance drills...like Free char ,complex calculated key fig...etc..
Hope this may helps you...
Cheers,
Maruthi

Short dump "Time limit exceeded" when searching for Business Transactions

Hello Experts,
We migrated from SAP CRM 5.2 to SAP CRM 7.0. After migration, our business transaction search (quotation, sales order, service order, contract etc) ends with the short dump "Time limit exceeded" in class CL_CRM_REPORT_ACC_DYNAMIC, method DATABASE_ACCESS. The select query is triggered from line 5 of this method.
Number of Records:
CRMD_ORDERADM_H: 5,115,675
CRMD_ORDER_INDEX: 74,615,914
We have done these so far, but the performance is still either poor or times out.
1. DB team checked the ORACLE parameters and confirmed they are fine. They also checked the health of indices in table CRMD_ORDER_INDEX and indices are healthy
2. Created additional indices on CRMD_ORDERADM_H and CRMD_ORDER_INDEX. After the creation of indices, some of the searches(without any criteria) work. But it takes more than a minute to fetch 1 or 2 records
3. An ST05 trace confirmed that the selection on CRMD_ORDER_INDEX takes the most time. It takes about 103 seconds to fetch 2 records (max hits + 1)
4. If we specify search parameters, say for example a date or status, then again we get a short dump with the message "Time limit exceeded".
5. Observed that only if a matching index is available for the WHERE clause, the results are returned (albeit slowly). In the absence of an index, we get the dump.
6. Searched for notes and there are no notes that could help us.
Any idea what is causing this issue and what we can do to resolve this?
Regards,
Bala

Hi Michael,
Thanks. Yes we considered the note 1527039. None of the three scenarios mentioned in the note helped us. But we ran CRM_INDEX_REBUILD to check if the table CRMD_ORDER_INDEX had a problem. That did not help us either.
The business users told us that they mostly search using the date fields or Object ID. We did not have any problem with search by Object ID. So we created additional indices to support search using the date fields.

Bala

I have just installed a 2TB time capsule on my iMac i7, it see my second 1TB hard drive but the 256 SSD doesn't come up in the list of hard drives I can back up. How can I enable the time machine to see my first SSD 256gb hard drive?

iLife is preinstalled on all the Macs. If you purchased iLife in the App Store or your computer came without DVDs, open App Store > Purchases and download the applications. If your Mac came with discs, insert the Applications DVD and install iLife applications

I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for several years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both?

I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for a couple years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both the iMac and MacBook Air? I don't mind losing earlier backups. I have excluded some items from backing up, but since the Airport Time Capsule is full, I can't even begin to back up the MacBook Air.

On your Mac.......
Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click on the Disks tab at the top of the window
Click Erase Disk
On the next window that appears, select the Quick Erase option, then click Erase
The operation will only take a few minutes.
Now you are ready to start new backups of both Macs. Back up one Mac first, then back up the other. Do not try to back up both Macs as the same time.
