Trouble Burning CD On Different Window XP User IDs

I have Window XP and I can't burn cds, since downloading 7, on any user id, except administrator. It says disc burner or software not found on all my other ids. I don't know what to do. Do I have to authorize the other ids to be able to burn a cd? If so, how do I do that? If anyone can help, thank you SO MUCH.
Jenni

There is a fix, go buy a compatible burner. Apple's stance is pretty much thank you for your donation now go punch yourself. I'm quite put out myself.

HT203164 I tried my first Windows CD burn with iTunes; the burn fails at different points in the burn with error codes 4450 or 4280.

I tried my first Windows CD burn with iTunes; the burn fails at different points during the burn, with error codes 4450 or 4280.

I have the same problem, after years of everything working great. Last time this happened I tried using a different brand of CD and it worked, but I must warn you that now iTunes rejects all three brands I have been trying to use.

Burning Keynote .PPT exported file to CD for Windows PPT user.

I created a Keynote presentation using KN 2.0.2 and exported it as a .ppt file. Worked great. I want to burn the .ppt file to a CD to give to a Windows PPT user to view. I burned the KN .ppt file to a CDRW disk using Finder. However, the Windows user couldn't view the KN .ppt exported file, error message read, "PPT does not have a recognizable file system". Should I have used a CD-R disk instead of a CDRW disk? Can you burn a KN .ppt exported file straigth to a CD using just Finder or do I need to use Toast, etc.?
Thanks

LK,
maybe it's a problem with the name of the .mov. Check if it contains spaces. Spaces in file names often cause problems.
Also, try creating an ISO9660 CD. Choose the advanced tab in Toast 6 where you'll find the option. Toast should automatically enable Joliet extension which is used on Windows for long file names.
Then, instead of burning choose "File/Save As Disc Image…" and mount the disc image (Utilities/Mount Disc Image…). You can then check the content. The content should be shown as it will be seen on Windows.
If the Windows folks happen to have a CD burning program available, you could also send the ISO9660 disc image (to avoid spending too much CD-Rs for your tries (Or use a CD-RW instead).

I have been having trouble burning a DVD.

I have been having trouble burning a DVD. It goes through all the steps until it gets to the multiplexing "burn" step and then with 3 minutes left the disk pops out. The disk is left empty and an error comes up. I have been able to burn DVD's before, so this is frustrating.

Well - not correct answer as I understands it - This is a very complex question. In my case I'de put a button just touching the TV-Safe area boarder. Moving it a minute inside and the Error disappeared.
BUT - there are so many other things that I collected a long long list on this - read and see if You find help here.
Multiplexing Error
PART One.
Use of strange video/audio material eg .avi, .wmv, .mp3 etc.
I only use.
Video - StreamingDV (miniDV tape via FireWire) and
Audio = .aiff (as on audio-CDs) (else coverted to this .aff 48KHz)
Chapters !
A. Using strange letters in video project name eg +,/; etc. keep to a-z and 0-9 strange letters in project name eg +
as described by Donnyboy69. Does the title of your project have any symbols or decimal points in it. If so, that is why you are getting the error. I had a project that had a + sign which caused the same problem. I renamed it without the symbol and low and behold, it worked.
B. Location of Chapters
• Can’t be at start or end of movie (Skip first/start one - iDVD sets this by it self. At the End - no need)
• Not in a transition (or within 2-3 seconds from it)
Important when from iMovie HD6 or previous - Now also observed when using FCE 4
PART Two.
from Robert Modero.
"Multiplexing Error. Problem during initialization of tracks"
Simply remember to add subtitles to your Quicktime files and menu buttons.
Once I did that, I was back in business.
from Boise Jim
Do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on grey background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
I always makes a DiskImage first and test this so that it runs OK
I use only - Verbatim DVDs
I use only - DVD-R
I burn at an as slow speed possibly eg x1
This gives good DVDs
PART Three.
Multiplex Error

Back again. Here is what I have found to work. I also have and use a LaCie DVD-R/RW DL external drive and a LaCie external hard drive as well. Since yesterday I have tried a few ways to burn a themed iDVD project having four 56 minute movies on it, amounting to 226 minutes onto a DVD DL disc, capacity 240 minutes. Apple tech support really didn't know what to do but gave me a very good tip. I had two options left. Apple tech support's tip was to try disc image. One of the replies on a thread with this subject said not to, but my experience today is good. Put your project onto "Burn to disc image," under "iDVD, file." Yesterday encoding took me 23 1/2 hours. Overnight for iDVD disc image, encoding took 21 1/2 hours (again) while I slept. This morning I tried to copy/burn disc image to a DVD with Roxio Toast 7, and it stopped near the end of the burn with some kind of "error" message. So then I tried Utilities> Disc Utility> Burn icon, and followed it through. Be sure to click the DVD DL drive in the window "Burn disc in.". I had one other problem though. At the end of a 46 minute copy, it started to verify, and at the end of verify it rejected the burn. So I tried again, and when "verify" appeared, I clicked on "Skip." The disc finished burning and is doing fine and well. A long and tortuous process, but at last something works. I made several additional copies using Disc Utility. Best wishes. Chuck, Chicago.
2. Disconnect any other external devices not absolutly needed.
eg external USB/USB2 hard disks, other FW hard disks etc.

First, I do not think that mixing widescreen and standard makes a difference in iDVD.
Second, you should use a better brand of DVD disk. Also, many of us have experienced fewer problems on playback with DVD-R disks. Recommended brands here are Verbatim, Maxell and Taio Yuden. Memorex and TDK are not consistent and may not give you a correct burn. They apparently have fewer layers in the composition of the disk. I have always used Verbatim DVD-R disks and have not had any burn problems.
Also, choose a slower burn speed, 4x or less.
Third, to determine if the iDVD project will burn properly, create a disk image file (from within iDVD, go File->Save as Disk Image) and test it. Mount the disk image and then open DVD Player (in Applications) and view your project. If it plays correctly, you can then burn the actual DVD disk from the disk image file using Disk Utility.

I did everything I've seen suggested, but a friend (who used to be an Apple Genius) suggested that I do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on grey background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
It worked, and I got a clean burn from iDVD.
Hopefully this can help other people.

Well, I finally got it, and it was odd enough to post here incase anyone looks this topic up again. Many things were tried, including burning the uneditited film, the edited film without titles and chapter markers, abbreviating the chapter markers in case length was the issue (remember the old iMovie used to truncate them when moving to iDVD?). In the process, I noticed that one, and only one, chapter marker was on the same line as the title marker. All the others were on the line above. The only way I seemed able to change that was to clip a few seconds of film. After that last clip, the offending marker took a place on the line above, as were all the others. That run published, compiled completely and burned. That's one for the books.
*One user more writes*
To add my experience with Multiplex Errors using iDVD (7.0.4), I recently created two iDVD projects
Video from both passed from FCE 4.01 with chapters
One project worked fine in creating disk image file
The other gave Multiplex Errors
I tried suggestions to remove special characters and no chapter marks at beginning, but nothing worked
Note that I've used iDVD for dozens of projects and this is first time I've run into Multiplex Errors
Anyway, for problem project, I tried an experiment where I removed all chapters in FCE and passed to new iDVD project
This time multiplex errors gone
So had something to do with chapters
So now I tried numerous experiments to remove individual chapters and try again creating disk image with new iDVD project
After numerous trys, I was able to narrow problem down to 1 "Bad" chapter mark
That is, when I left the "bad" chapter in my FCE project and passed to iDVD, iDVD gave multiplex error
When I removed "bad" chapter mark (and others in), no mulitplex error
As a final experiment, I moved "bad" chapter mark about 5-10 secs beyond original point and passed to iDVD, the multiplex errors now magically went away and I was able to finally create my disk image.
I have no idea why this worked, but thought I'd mention here in case someone else runs into similar problem.

In addition to Bengt's fine advice, burning errors can occur if you have located any of your menu buttons wholly or partly outside of the safe TV viewing area. Go to your main project menu, then click on View/Show TV Safe Area, to check. Drag into the safe viewing area any buttons that are outside the safe viewing area.
Russ One - suggest this
Multiplexer Error-There was an error during muxing preparation
One thing that worked for me was to export the video w/o chapter markers as a self contained movie (thereby not loosing the edits & etc). Then make a new FCE project and import that movie into a new sequence and add the chapter markers. I've used "-", "&" and "," with no problem in the chapter names. Removing the markers or exporting without them did solve the problem but renaming them with just numbers 1,2,3....5, did not solve the problem and since this problem seems to happen with with iMovie as well, it would suggest the problem is in the video or audio and in combination with the chapter markers iDVD just can't handle it. The only other possibility is that both iMovie and FCE share the same or similar chapter marker code that some how is corrupting the markers.

Moving/Linking Claims Windows Auth user to an ADFS Claims

Hi guys,
Here is my situation:
Initial deployment: SharePoint 2010 with Windows Authentication - Users login using AD
We successfully migrated the web application to use "Claims"
We then integrated the web application with ADFS 2.0 - Using the same AD users
Everything seems good and working fine.
The question I have is related to content already created in SharePoint. Is it possible to map the new ADFS account usernames to the existing windows authentication claims usernames?
This is important for users, because we would like the "My" views of lists and libraries to work. SharePoint at the moment thinks that the logged in users (using ADFS) is different than the user who created/modified the documents. (Although it
is the same AD account)

Hi Inderjeet
Thanks for your reply. The article did help in moving users (Move-SPUser) from AD to ADFS (Which I noticed in the securities in groups), however, the issue I'm looking for is still standing where the items that were created by the user using "Windows
Auth Claim" were not moved/updated to the "ADFS Claim" user, which in fact they map to the same AD user.
Is there away to transfer/update the created by and modified by attributes of users from Windows Claims to ADFS Claims user?
UPDATE: The above statement is not correct. Move-SPUser actually updates the created by and modified by attributes to.

When logging on to Windows 7 user gets a second mapped drive to the users home folder

Morning,
I'm working through an issue we've discovered whilst trialing Windows 7. Our environment is setup as follows.
Domain Controllers are Windows Server 2003
Clients are Windows XP and Windows 7
Windows XP and Windows 7 Clients are in seperate OU's
All Windows XP Group Policies apply to Windows XP And Windows 7 clients, Windows 7 policies are then applied to Windows 7 clients after
Windows 7 policies are setup such that any setting defined in a Windows XP Group policy is left unconfigured in the Windows 7 Group policy and only new Windows 7 settings have been set in Windows 7 Group Policies.
We have users home folders mapped in their Account Directory account setting and set to H:\   to connect to
\\domainname\dfs\home\username
In addition we also as a fail safe map the drive via a login script using net use
This has worked fine for years in windows XP, if Active Directory failed to map the drive for any reason then the login script would then map the home drive.
In Windows 7 we have noticed a curious error. We found after a period of a couple of weeks we suddenly started getting a new drive mapped. This was identical to the H:\ drive mapping but was instead under drive Z:\. In other words, the
users home folder is mapped twice on h:\ and z:\. This is not affecting any of the Windows XP users.
I have gone through several logic reasons to ascertain why this has happened with the following findings.
1. Originally we thought the error appeared when we tried out mapping the home drive using the mapped drives functionality new in Windows 7 group policy under preferences > windows settings > drive maps. However, after forcing it to delete the
Z:\ drive using this functionality we only succeeded in removing it with a group policy present to do it. As soon as we removed that group policy the Z:\ drive came back
2. Secondly i thought the reason we would be getting a z:\ drive when we haven't specified it anywhere is because active directory is trying to map to the H:\ Drive but it is already present therefore in Windows 7 it tries to map to a different drive.
Using Windows logic it tries the highest letter first which is unlikely to be in use i.e. z:\. This makes sense because our logon script uses a net use h:\ command to map the drive and i believe by default these are set to perisistent. Therefore
the next time the user logs on H:\ is already mapped so the logic in Active Directory accounts maps the drive to Z:\ instead hence we end up with two mapped home drives. To test this i altered the login script to set the drive maps to
non persistent using persistent:no. The logic here was that when the user logged off the drive would become unmapped so that when Active Directory tried to map the drive it would be able to use H:\. Unfortunately this was not the case and
Z:\ remains.
3. Here is where i resolve the issue but i don't know why and is the bit i need answering. If i go into my account on Active Directory and go to Profile and set the home folder drive letter to another letter i.e. change from H:\ to U:\,
i get prompted to set full control etc and apply. I then set the drive back from U:\ to H:\, again i am prompted for setting full control which i accept.
NOW when i login i no longer receive a Z:\ drive and only get an H:\ drive. YAY, thats what i want, however, i do not understand why this is the case. At first i thought it might be something in the active directory logic when i login to an XP
machine and then login to a windows 7 machine.  IF you bear in mind that although i get a new profile in Windows 7 i still retain the same home folder setting. However, after logging on an XP machine logging off then logging
on a Windows 7 machine i still didn't get the Z:\ drive back.
I have tried creating a new user that ONLY receives our Windows 7 Group Policies and still they receive both an H:\ and a Z:\ drive which rules out the Windows XP policies conflicting with the Windows 7 policies.
Does anyone have any ideas why i would get a second drive mapped to Z:\ logging into Windows 7 on a Windows Server 2003 domain?
Can anyone explain in more detail exactly how the Active Directory functionality works when you specify a connect to Drive letter for a users home folder?
My current workaround is simply to add a net use command to remove the Z:\ drive. I do not want to use Mapped Network drives using the new policy settings in Windows 7 RSAT because we have already found issues with it.
<input id="3daf20bf-4f4d-4a05-86da-2c30c205d580_attachments" type="hidden" />

We had the exact same issue happen to us. No issue on Windows XP but Windows 7 mapped two home drives (F and Z). F was mapped during the login script and Z was being mapped by some unknown reason.
We use Netapp for our storage and home drives and use a feature called CIFS Home Drive Mapping. This essentially maps a user to a folder not available through normal CIFS methods causing AD to error when setting the home drive. To get around this we use
dsquery and dsmod to modify this attribute in the user account. This is the command we used...
dsquery user -name %UserNameX% | dsmod user -hmdrv F -hmdir \\filer\$username$
Notice there is no ":" after the F
We determined the root causewas the value for the
homeDrive attributefor the user account was set to "F" instead of "F:"
When we updated our users to reference "F:" instead of "F" in their user, this problem was resolved.
Use LDP or some other method to verify that the homeDrive attribute is set to "F:" (or any other letter) or you will have this issue.

Hi iTunes-1,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The error message you posted indicates a possible firmware update is needed for iTunes for Windows to work with your CD drive.
iTunes for Windows: Updating the firmware on your CD or DVD drive - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201852
Having outdated firmware can cause issues using CDs and DVDs with iTunes for Windows. Firmware is a type of software stored in a chip in hardware that can sometimes be updated.Identifying drives and firmware versions
To run CD Diagnostics, follow the steps in this document.
After following the steps to run CD Diagnostics linked above, look at section three to find out more about your optical drive(s).
Here is an example of what section three might look like:
In this example there are two drives. Drive E is a Samsung DVD-ROM drive with a model designation of SD-616 that has firmware version F000. Drive F is an NEC drive with a model designation of NR-7900A that has firmware version 1.08.Updating the firmware
If the optical drive you are using came with your computer, check with the support site for your computer for a firmware update. Typically you will need to go to the support website for the computer maker and click on a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your computer model designation and operating system version to see what updates are available. Then look through the available updates for a firmware update for your optical drive. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of your computer.
If the optical drive you are using came as a separate part (was not included with a computer), check the support site for the drive maker for a firmware update. Sometimes the manufacturer is not clear in the CD Diagnostics results. In that case, you may just have to search the Internet for the drive model designation. You can usually find out who made the drive by looking through the results of such a search. Once you have identified who made your drive, go to the support website for that company. Look for a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your optical drive model designation. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of the optical drive.Verifying that the firmware was updated
Run CD Diagnostics again.
Examine the CD Diagnostics results. The firmware version for the drive should be the new version.

Also, you mentioned that you have been successful burning a CD with the Windows OS. Make sure that you have closed all software programs that can access the CD burner so that there isn't a conflict for the drive. Sometimes chaning the burn speed from "maximum" to 8x can also help in this situation.
I hope this information helps ...

I'm not responding issue on chat with Windows XP user

Hi Everyone,
First off, My ability to log on is still spotty with a mac.com or AIM address. I've done everything from my last posting regularly but still get spotty log ons, appoximately 1 in 8 log ons is successful, the rest is hoist unexpectedly lost. I personally think there is much more than just my computer, time for an upgrade Apple!
My problem today is that I'm trying to chat with a buddy in Austria. He's running Windows XP and installed AIM 5.9. He ran through the set up, his camera was listed, he did the autoconfigure, set up the camera and has a good preview.
When I log on I can see him and he me. We can text chat with no problems. HOWEVER, no video chat
When he calls me, I double click, it opens to the preview screen, I click on accept and my window say video conferencing starting, then it says video chast failed because I didn't respond. This is incomprehensible to me since I hit the accept button and the video chat tried to start.
Furthermore, when I call him, it rings at his place, he clicks accept, we both get the preview and video chat starting message, then I get the video chat failed because I didn't respond message, even though I initiated the call.
That all said, apart from the spotty log on problems plaguing me, once I am logged on, I have absolutely no problems chatting with my wife at the office on her Mac.
So, if I constantly get I didn't respond messages as described with a Windows XP user but not with the wife on a Mac, I have to assume there's nothing wrong at my end, or shouldn't I *** U & ME at all??!!
Does the windows user need different ports than me, do I need to open additional ports, should I switch off my firewall completely?? He already tried switching off his firewall coompletely but the same message came up.
I pointed my buddy to Ralph's web site, but when we went there to get the windows updated component, it appeared to want to download the same messenger 5.9 that we downloaded earlier today, the file was the same 8.8 meg. Am I missing something Ralph?
Of course, there "may" be a language compatibility issue because 5.9 is English and he's running it on a german version of Windows (AIM only has text on AIM 5.1 for Gewrman users right now which has no video) but he didn't have any problems with the install or set up.
It's just really confusing. Any suggestions??

Curious, you said each other could see each other BEFORE initiating a video chat... do you mean that each of you could see each other in the buddies list?
As for not connecting to a PC user, you're not the only one having issues. I have been able to receive a video chat from a PC user, but not initiate one with that same user. Basically in order for me to receive a video chat from the PC user (they must initiate the chat), I had to go into my System Preferences > Internet and Network > Sharing > Firewall and then check the box "iChat BonJour". My firewall is turned off, however, if I do not put a check in that one box, the PC user can't video chat with me. Don't ask me why this is so since the firewall is turned off, it should automatically allow traffic on all ports... but alas, apparently that is not the case. That alone did not do the trick because the PC users router was not playing well in the mix. He connected directly to his modem (removed his router from the mix), and initiated a video chat with me, no problems. If he puts his router back into the mix, he can't video chat any more. If I deselect the "iChat Bonjour" setting, whether he is connected to the router or not, he will no longer be able to initiate a video chat any more. I tried removing my router, so that basically we both were connected directly to our modems, but that didn't help me to initiate a video chat with him. Text chats have never been a problem and both of us are using AIM as our intermediary.
I also have no problems whatsoever chatting with fellow Mac users... but then, we are all working with the same software/OS whereas the PC users are not.
Give my little scenario a go with your PC friend and see if he can now initiate a chat with you. I too would like to know what the PC user needs to enable as well... like specifics since merely saying open ports blah blah blah does nothing for someone who has no idea where to look to make those changes on a PC.
So what I have learned is:
1. Merely turning your firewall off doesn't automatically enable certain port traffic on your machine, you must enable it yourself. This could also be true for the PC users as well, thus knowing where to enable said ports under WindowsXP would be greatfully welcome.
2. Routers can interfere with the process. If removing the routers from the chain still results in no joy, then consider it to be a configuration issue on each machine. If removing the routers works, then your machines/software are good to go, you just now have to figure out why the routers don't like each other. In my case, my router works fine for him, but his does not work fine for me.
One should be able to connect to a PC if the PC can connect to you. Clearly I need to enable something else on my end or he needs to enable something on his end. The stuff should work, but our stupid machines are telling themselves to not work because we never told them that we want them to work. I know that sounds absurd, but I proved that was the case when I got the PC user to initiate a successful video chat with me.

Sharing iTunes library across 2 Windows user IDs

My Windows XP computer is set up with 2 user accounts. iTunes is installed and all of my music is stored in my Shared Music folder (this folder is in Shared Documents, which is accessible from each user ID).
I want to be able to use iTunes from either Windows user ID. The problem is that iTunes creates and maintains 2 separate iTunes Music Library.xml files. When I'm logged on (user #1), iTunes uses the xml file in my My Documents folder. When my spouse is logged on (user #2), iTunes uses the xml file in her My Documents folder.
This is problematic. If I add a new song to iTunes from my Windows ID (and the song file is placed in the Shared Music folder), it is added to my library and xml file. If my spouse logs on and launches iTunes, the song is NOT in her iTunes library. She has to manually add the file from the iTunes Add File to Library command.
I'd like iTunes to use a single library that both Windows user IDs can use and maintain. I don't want to have to manually try to keep these in sync.
I can't find any setting in iTunes for this, and the user guide doesn't even mention this topic. Any help is appreciated!!!

TheMint,
I think it works like this:
The setting you describe is where iTunes will store the music files themselves (.aac or .mp3, etc.) However, iTunes creates an index of all of your music, and it uses that index to display all of your music in iTunes. The index file is called iTunes Library.xml
The index is stored in the My Documents\My Music folder of the user ID you log in as. Apparently, you cannot tell iTunes to store this in a different location.
So if you create an iTunes library under one Windows user ID, the index is created in that user ID's My Documents\My Music folder. If you then log in as another Windows user ID, iTunes does not see the index that was created by the first Windows user. Thus you do not see any of the music listed in iTunes.

How do I copy purchases between 2 itunes libraries on the same computer with different log ins and separate apple user ids?

Load the library which doesn't contain the songs and drag them into the open iTunes application window. If you need to move them between different computer user accounts, put them into /Users/Shared/.

Can I use a common music library across 2 Windows user IDs?

My Windows XP computer is set up with 2 user accounts. iTunes is installed and all of my music is stored in my Shared Music folder (this folder is in Shared Documents, which is accessible from each user ID).
I want to be able to use iTunes from either Windows user ID. The problem is that iTunes creates and maintains 2 separate iTunes Music Library.xml files. When I'm logged on (user #1), iTunes uses the xml file in my My Documents folder. When my spouse is logged on (user #2), iTunes uses the xml file in her My Documents folder.
This is problematic. If I add a new song to iTunes from my Windows ID (and the song file is placed in the Shared Music folder), it is added to my library and xml file. If my spouse logs on and launches iTunes, the song is NOT in her iTunes library. She has to manually add the file from the iTunes Add File to Library command.
I'd like iTunes to use a single library that both Windows user IDs can use and maintain. I don't want to have to manually try to keep these in sync.
I can't find any setting in iTunes for this, and the user guide doesn't even mention this topic. Any help is appreciated!!!

Having trouble installing ProIX on new Windows 8 machine after XP crash. Get almost ll of the way through and get an error box ... contact system support. Only way out is to abort and then it un-installs. Wondering if a licensing max issue since we did

Hey robr72339266,
With a single user license, you can install Acrobat on maximum two computers, say, your laptop at work and desktop at office.
But, you cannot use Acrobat on both the machines simultaneously.
You will first need to deactivate Acrobat from the old machine, then install and activate the software on the new OS with the same serial key.
Please Contact | Adobe to seek help on the same.

Windows PC User Making The Big Switch To Mac OS X & MacBook 2.0GHz

I'm from the Philippines. I've been a Windows PC user for around 10 years. I figured it's time to replace my old Pentium III 500MHz/Win98SE with a newer system to keep up with highter system requirements set forth by newer applications.
The features I looked for include portability, performance, connectivity (built-in WiFi & Bluetooth) and value (not too expensive). I'm initially leaning towards getting another Windows XP-based platform because Windows-based apps are readily available here and getting tech support for the Mac would be a little prob. Also, I just can't afford to leave behind some applications that are somehoew inexistent in the Mac world, but the mere thought that the PC world would soon be shifting to Vista kinda turned me off. Nobody wants to buy a new notebook that would suddenly become obsolete in just a few months or so.
However, everything changed when online research led me to Apple's homepage (www.apple.com), where I discovered Mac's latest wonder: the Macbook. I heared about the Mac OS X's reputation for stability and performance. They say Macs are less prone to worms & viruses too since most of these things were designed specificically to infect Windows-based platforms. Looks like this is it for me. I'll be getting a MacBook 2.0GHz soon.
I must admit that what primarily attracted me to the Intel-powered Macbook is the fact that it could now run two operating systems thru "Boot Camp" or Parallels For Mac. Two applications that would give me the capability to run Mac OS X and Windows XP on a single platform. It's like having the best of both worlds.
For me, this is really great news but I still have questions though. The Macbook is a new release, so I'm still iffy about purchasing it as new technology is notorious for having many annoying quirks and kinks that need to be smoothed out.
My question is... What are the PROS and CONS of using BootCamp and Parallels respectively? Is Parallels better than the other? Which one would you recommend? Should I decide to install both, will there be any hitches?
I won't be upgrading for the next 5 years or so. The notebook will likely see some heavy use for Medical Transcription work and maybe occasional gaming (mostly flight sims). This would be my first Mac purchase so I better do it right the first time. So if you have any comments, feedbacks, suggestions... kindly post it here.
I'll be making the big switch soon.

I'm running Parallels on an iMac 2.0 GHz, and I absolutely love it! I expected all sorts of glitches and found virtually none. The only drawback I know if is that it treats your USB 2.0 ports like USB 1.1. Otherwise, my Windows XP virtual machine inside of Parallels doesn't seem to know it's not on a PC; it runs smoothly and much faster than on my previous 1.5GHz PC with 1.0 GB RAM. I've loaded Quicken for Windows, MS Office, Norton Anti-Virus, Adobe Acrobat, and several other Windows Apps with no troubles at all. I'm telling you, this software (Parallels) is amazing. I feel like I literally have two computers now.
I would recommend that you have 2.0 GB of RAM, because while you're running Parallels, you have 2 OS's operating at the same time. But the ability to switch back and forth between the two OS's, share files, cut and paste - well, it's simply awesome, and well worth any extra cost.

Different user IDs in UME and ADS, mapping?

Dear All,
we want to implement Integrated Windows Authentication for Portal.
For such a implementation we we've found descirption in the SAP Note: 935644 - "Configuring Kerberos on NW04 against Database User Store"
The problem is, that we have different user IDs in J2EE Engine and MS ADS user store and the mapping has to be done "via additional UME attribute".
Anyone know how to implement such a attribute mapping?
Thanks for help!
