I have a Macbook Pro 15" that is three and a half years old. Although it has slowed a bit, it still runs well and runs every program I need. Any tips for how to keep this old computer running well and in good health?

I have a Macbook Pro 15" that is three and a half years old. Although it has slowed a bit, it still runs well and runs every program I need. Any tips for how to keep this old computer running well and in good health?
I have a 250 gig drive and try to keep at least 100 gigs unused at all times, 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM memory, back up with Time Machine and CrashPlan, and have OS X 10.7.3.
This was my first Mac since an old Apple II GS. After that I used PC's and got really good at reformatting, replacing drives, reinstalling, defragging, resolving software conflicts, etc. Since switching back to Macs (five in my extended family now), I haven't had to do any of those things. So, although, the cost is three times as much, the aggrevation has been ten times less.
I'm retired and living on a fixed income and would therefore like to keep this computer running as opposed to constatntly upgrading.
That said, any tips?
Thanks
It does have a crack on the left of the screen case about 3/4'' up from the bottom. I've posted that as another question.

Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior. Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
Carbon Copy Cloner
Data Backup
Deja Vu
SuperDuper!
SyncTwoFolders
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.
Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Adding more RAM, if feasible, and a new, faster hard drive may also help pep it up a little.

Creat new admin cannot access old user accounts

i got a macbook running os x 10.6.8 i forget the admin account's password i created new administration account using command+s and typing following commands
mount -uw /
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
shutdown -h now
now i can not access my old data i got 80 gb hard drive i can only access 6 gb of it how can i access my old user accounts and all of its data
thanks for help in advance
regards
hardeep

Does the old user account have the same name as before , or has it been changed to 'xyz (deleted)' ?.
If it has a usable name, just go to System Preferences - Accounts & create a new one with that exact name.
Click OK when "A folder in the Users folder already has the name 'account name'. Would you like to use that folder as the Home folder for this user account?" appears. Note: This will correct the ownership of all files in the Home folder, and avoid permissions issues with the contents
You can then logout & into the 'new' one.
If the name needs changing : follow https://web.archive.org/web/20130919225809/http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1428
rather than the current version at Apple
If you want to continue using the new account you've already made, but access the old folders :
Select the old account home folder in Finder, then use Finder - File menu - Get info (command I). Open the 'Sharing & Permissions' section at the bottom, then click the padlock icon at bottom right & authenticate with an admin name & password.
Click the + button & add your new account name to the list, then select it & change 'Read only' to 'Read & Write'.
Now click the gear icon at the bottom & choose 'Apply to enclosed items...'

How to run setup for new datasources without breaking old datasources?

Hi,
I am wondering how to install some more data sources (2LIS_05_Q0NOTIF, 2LIS_17_10NOTIF and 2LIS_18_10NOTIF) without breaking the delta mechanism for other data sources when I start to use the new datasources.
I have installed some QM cubes (0QM_C04, -05, -08 and -11) and delta loads run every night. Now I want to add two more cubes (0QM_C02 and -03). The new cubes use datasources that are not yet available.
If I now activate the needed datasources, delete the content of the setup tables again and run 'Application-Specific Setup of Statistical Data' for 'Quality Management', 'Plant Maintenance' and 'Service Management', I am afraid that I will re-initialize the delta queue for the datasources that are already in use... In other words: I am afraid of breaking all datasources in application 05, 17 and 18...
I cannot find documentation addressing this problem. Any input, anyone?
Best regards,
Christian Frier

Hi all,
if I understand you all correctly, I can use the following plan:
0) Wait until no documents are posted on the R/3 side.
1) Run the delta loads and check that the queues are empty (RSA7 and LBWQ).
2) Delete the setup tables.
3) Run the 'Application-Specific Setup of Statistical Data'
4) Create and execute infopackages for initial dataload (for the new datasources).
5) Create and execute infopackages for delta loads (for the new datasources).
6) Run the infopackages for delta load from the 'old' datasources without running a new initial dataload.
So basically 6) is the step I worry about.
That is that I can start to use 2LIS_05_ITEM, 2LIS_17_ITEM and 2LIS_18_ITEM without breaking the delta sequence for 2LIS_05_TASK, 2LIS_17_TASK and 2LIS_18_TASK.
regards,
Christian

Roll out for new plant need some informations

Hi,
We are going to roll out for our 2nd plant. So I need your help.
I am explaining the scenario,
Current scenario is: we have two manufacturing plants (ex:-one in noida and another in gurgaon) and in both plants we have six product line (in A plant=3, in B plant=3).
For both plants we are using one Company code (1000). and we are not using the business area.
But now the problem is this, that management wants separate reporting (P&l statement and Balance sheet) Plant wise and Product wise.
We decide to create a separate co- code for 2nd plant and six business area for product lines.
(In this regards I need your suggestions that how can we define the enterprise structure)
Please tell me
1. what new configurations we need to be done for new co-code?
2. In which areas business area will be affected and how and where we will assign the business area?
3. As we are doing transaction in sap since last year and we are doing this roll out in mid of 2008 so what will be the impact on the business.
4. How we will transfer the transactional data from one co-code to another, because data of both plants lies in previous co-code(1000).
Data like:- A. Transfer of General ledger balances
          B. Transfer of open line items of General ledgers
          C. Transfer of asset and accumulated depreciation from one co code to another.
          D. Controlling transfer postings.
          E. Customer / Vendor open items and balances transfer posting. Etc
If someone knew about something more to be taken care of, please guide so that we can successfully complete the roll out.
Please advice me, its urgent. if any one can give me his mobile to make me understood i can call to him .
Thanks and regards

if they want to a seperate P&L and B/S the why dont you make them as profit centers where you can take a P&L n B/S. at this level

General Trouble Shooting Tips for New Users

Ok so we're starting a Topic to help out people just starting up with Logic Express.
Me and a few others who frequent this board with a load of good answers thought it would be a good idea to offer a little helping hand to new users. Hopefully avoiding them their lapses in confidence and creativity by the way of limited techincal knowledge.
As far as Professional sequencers and recorders go Logic is pretty straight forward and quite basic too. If you're coming from either using Garage Band 1/2 or maybe even a PC with Cubase, Cool Edit, Sonar or otherwise. You may find it baffeling to start with.
So we hope this can be of some help to you.

Crack open the champagne it's Tip 1.
First off if you are using an external audio interface make sure it's plugged into your computer, it's powered up and drivers are installed. If using the internal sound card make sure all your connecting cables work ok and they are plugged in.
If you're running Logic for the first time, it should recognise compatible audio interfaces when you run the initial setup. It should also set this to be the default interface from now on.
If you've already been using Logic for a while and have just invested, then make sure and to to Preference/Audio and to the drivers panel. Select the driver there and leave all other settings as they are by default to avoid confusion.
This should then allow you to record audio. SO go to the Edit/Arrangement window and make an Audio if there's not already one there. Then head over to the Mix window and find that channel (Audio 1 is normally all the way to the left). You'll see the faders and just above them the panners, above these will be two boxes the top is to set the input channel on your interface, and the second is the output.
Set these according to the signal path you're trying to record hit the "Rec" button on that channel and you should either see the meter move up and down corresponding the sound, or you'll see the meter and hear the sound as well.
You can turn off the software monitoring (ie being able to hear the sound coming in) in the same preference panel we looked at earlier. Under "Software Monitoring".
Now you should be ready to record the sound. Switch back to the Edit/Arrange window and hit record in the transport bar. PERFORM. Hit stop. Go back to the start of the sound and hit play.
NOW
If you don't hear sound check the easiest things first. Is you audio interface or internal sound card connected to a set of speakers? Be it by means of an amplifier first or maybe you got some flash active ones!?
Do the cable you're using to connect with actually work?
Is the volume control up on the amp? Are the speakers plugged in?
This may sound stupid but it's the most annoy thing to do wrong and it DOES happen.
If this still doesn't work then double check all your drivers are there present and correct, the volume control in the computer is turned up, you have assign a valid output, and all levels within any software mixer that came with your interface are also all the way up.
Still nothing? Post a detailed description of your setup and problem in the forum and someone will answer it probably within a day or so.
Don't forget READ the manual, don't expect this to as easy as Garageband it's a different scale of operation which given time can reap massive rewards. Not always monitary mind you.
Good luck.
HTH
P.s. don't forget to rate posts you find helpful.

Created new user acct. deleted old user acct. can't access old TM backups

After changing the name on my home folder and deleting and creating a user account I can't access the old backups when I enter time machine.
After creating the new user acct TM did a full complete backup that I can access
Is this normal behavior or a problem?
All of the above was done working with AppleCare
Thanks for helping a Mac newbie.

Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Users
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V), and press return. A folder will open with the home folders of all users as subfolders. Enter Time Machine. You should now be able to see your old home folder in the snapshots that were taken before you renamed it.

10.4.8 for New Computer Installable on Old Computer?

I recently bought a new MacBook Pro to replace/upgrade a 3+ year old PowerBook G4 running 10.2.8. Can I use the OS install disks for 10.4.8 that came with the MacBook Pro to install Tiger on my old PowerBook (it has sufficient RAM, HD space and other technical requirements)? If so, is there anything special I need to do to avoid losing any applications or other items on the older PowerBook? (I have already successfully transferred everything from the PowerBook to the new MacBook Pro.) Thanks for any assistance.

"Can I use the OS install disks for 10.4.8 that came with the MacBook Pro to install Tiger on my old PowerBook"
No. The MacBook is Intel based. The Powerbook is not. An OS for Intel macs will not install on PowerPC based Macs. besides, even if you could it would be illegal, as you'd be violating the single-user license agreement that accompanies the MacBook.

User license questions - old user is leaving

Hi
Because all user application licenses (CRM sales, CRM service, and Professional) are assigned to named users how do we deal with the situation when a member of staff leaves the company and we wish to re-assign that license which is now no longer used to a new user? Can I do this from within SAP or do I need to email SAP regarding the name change?
I have done a search on this site and the internet but cannot find any information regarding this.
Thank you for any help.

Here is the Content of that SAP Note.951816
Symptom
When trying to allocate licenses to users, the number of licenses available is less than the (number of total - number of licenses already assigned).
(Menu Path: Administration -> License -> License Administration)
Other terms
license allocation, licenses available, license administration, SAP Business One, missing, less.
Reason and Prerequisites
Consulting
Solution
A user with a license allocated to her/him has been deleted from the system without deallocating the license first, or a company with users assigned has been deleted without deallocating the licenses first.
Each time a license is allocated/deallocated an entry is generated in an xml file "B1Upf.xml"
(Path: C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One ServerTools\License\ B1Upf.xml).
If a user/database is deleted without previous deallocation of a license that entry is not removed from the file thus taking up a license space.
To resolve the issue follow these steps:
1. Close all SAP Business One clients.
2. Make a copy of the file (C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One ServerTools\License\B1Upf.xml) and save it with a different name or in a different folder.
3. Delete the original file.
4. Stop/Start the license server.
5. Connect to SAP Business One and assign the licenses (Administration -> License -> License Administration). You will need to reassign licenses for all your users.
Note: To access the Notes Portal you should have a Valid SUserId

Feedback on corporate decision to include documentation for new version together with old

Re:
...That is the intent for the documentation for CS6: that it be in the same document as CS5 and CS5.1...
Every single Adobe executive up the chain of command who is even partially responsible for that astonishing, feeble-minded decision henceforth deserves the unqualifed epithet of idiot.
Waaaay beyond angry!
We know the engineers and developers are not among that group of morons. I'm referencing the Adobe corporate, bureaucratic zombies.
No comment or response is expected as any explanation would be as futile as inherently incredible.

A "What's new" in the front of an old manual does not make a new manual. What it does make is a very unprofessional mess, lacking contents, index, and organization. This is pathetic.

Suggestions for new laptop - Maybe Satellite Pro L550-17U

Wasn't sure where to ask this so it's here in the General category.
I'm looking for a replacement laptop with a few specific requirements. I can get most of them but the last one is proving difficult. So the requirements are:
17" screen with at least 1600 horizontal resolution.
Minimum of 4Gb RAM (8 would be nice)
Run 64-bit Windows 7
Bluetooth
and finally, the cruncher:
Supports Intel VT (Virtualization Technology)
I thought the Satellite Pro L550-17U would be OK, but looking at the Intel site, it doesn't seem that the T6570 processor supports VT. And it would have to be supported in the BIOS anyway, and nothing in the spec says it will.
Anybody able to provide any help please? I'd like to stick with Toshiba, as I've had such great reliability from them, but would consider other makes (sorry Toshiba) if that's the only option.
Roger

Thanks for your reply.
In answer to your first question, as little as I can get away with:). I'm expecting to pay over 600GBP, but certainly won't go over 1000.
As to your 2nd question, general office plus development work, and occasionally connecting to external screens for presentations. My aim is to run Windows 7 Ultimate with the current versions of MS Office, Visual Studio and Expression Studio and then upgrade those versions when the repacements are out, I also need to run older versions of Windows (XP, Vista) and Office (XP, 2003), hence the VT requirement.
Going back to your other comment, what isn't 'best' about the L model? I was looking at specs and not really considering the model.

Tips for new SAP HR

I have joined SAP HR functional job and never worked in SAP field before. I have domain knowledge only. Please give tips on scaling up quickly without mentoring etc.

Hi Stephan,
Solving exercises in HCM is not really applicable, since the requirements on every client is diff.
What I will suggest you is that, you start reading SAP Help simultaneously, where you can create your own scenarios at basic level.
once you become confident then, there is no need to solve exercises
or else if you can find ant book, available in market you can go through them.
reward points if useful!!

Pay for new upgrade on day old iTouch?

We just bought an iTouch yesterday. Today we tried to download an app and games and it says we have to pay 9.99$ for a 3.0 upgrade? Hunh? I just bought this and now I have to upgrade it? Is this right? Did I get last years model? Should the salesperson have given me an upgrade coupon or something? Why isn't what I bought from the Apple store not up to date??? Please advise. It is not the 9.99 that I am worried about, but rather the principle of the business practice that I have questions about. Thanks

I must admit there isn't much in there that can warrant charging anything for an Ipod touch. Iphone perhaps since there is stuff that can only work on an iphone.
This should be a standard update for ipod's. It does stink that you've just purchased and having to pay more. Perhaps, in response, you should return it and rebuy when one comes with 3.0?
Graeme
Btw: I've tried to update purely because apps will come out that will be 3.0 only.
