Trying to Change Data Source but is not highlighted

I have a pivot table running with inventory and we are doing a server upgrade so i need to change the path, but the "Change Data Source" button is not lit up and will not let me do this. Anyone know why this might be happening? Thanks!!!

Hi Frank,
We can directly update the existing connection string to connect to new server. Please take a look at the following articles:

I can not map field after changing data source location

Hi
I have a small problem that I got a report file and database from my customer, after that I setup database, open the file and change data source to my setting. but some filed can not map. The field mapping widonw does not display all field in the table. Of course I have checked the missing fields are existing in the table.
OS:Windows7
DB:Oracle11
CR:XI Release 2
Does anyone have an idea?

hi,
In Map Fields window, there is an option "Match Type".
Please Unchek that option, so that you will be able to see all the fields from that table.
Also, while mapping please verify the datatypes of source and target fields.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
    1.    Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    2.    If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.

I am trying to change my AppleID but it is telling me that my date of birth doesnt match their records?? what can i do, since obviously their records are wrong

don't take this the wrong way, I know you are trying to help, but that wasn't helpful in the slightest. Yes I realise that they don't know me personally, and hence don't know what my actual birthdate is. When I fill in online forms I generally do them accurately. I have no idea how they have it wrong, but what I was really alluding to was, can someone please tell me how to contact Apple so they can do it manually. this is doing my head in royally, since I cant download any apps etc on any of my apple stuff, as my account has been frozen.

Close the App Store app, reset your iPad and then try again.
To close the App Store, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Errors in the high-level relational engine. The data source view does not contain a definition for the table or view. The Source property may not have been set.

Hi All,
I have a cube in which i'm using the TIME DIM that i created in the warehouse. But now i wanted a new measure in the cube which is Average over time and when i wanted to created the new measure i got a message that no time dim was defined, so i created a
new time dimension in the SSAS using wizard. But when i tried to process the new time dimension i'm getting the follwoing error message
"Errors in the high-level relational engine. The data source view does not contain a definition for "SSASTIMEDIM" the table or view. The Source property may not have been set."
Can anyone please tell me why i cannot create a new measure average over the time using my time dimension? Also what am i doing wrong with the SSASTIMEDIM, that i'm getting the error.
Thanks

Hi PMunshi,
According to your description, you get the above error when processing the time dimension. Right?
In this scenario, since you have updated the DSV, it should have no problem on the table existence. One possibility is that table has been specified for tracking in the notifications for proactive caching, but isn't available any more for some
reason. Please change the setting in Proactive Caching into "MOLAP".

Crystal report for visual studio 2010 data source object is not valid error

Hello,
I receive an "data source object is not valid" error when I want to print one CR document after setting an ADODB.Recordset on SetDataSource method of my report.
On my developer station, this operation works without problem but on client station, I get this error.
The redistributable package for client is installed on client side (CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_1.msi).
Can someone help me?
Thank you.

Thank's for your answers
Dim rsPkLst As ADODB.Recordset = Nothing
Dim report As New crPickingList
' Fill ADODB.Recordset with SQL Statment
If rsPkLst.RecordCount > 0 Then
report.SetDataSource(rsPkLst) ' Error : The data source object is invalid
EndIf
This error appears during "report.SetDataSource(rsPkLst)" instruction.
ADODB drivers are already installed and my ADODB.Recordset is filled with good records.
This project is an updated project from Visual Studio 2003 to Visual studio 2010 and the old version was running fine.
Developer and client station runs under Windows XP SP3.
On developer side I install CRforVS_13_0_1 (BuildVersion=13.0.1.220.Cortez_CR4VS).
On client side I install CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_1.msi.
Both stations use Microsoft .Net Framework 4.
Move to ADO.NET is a solution but, for the moment, I do not have the time to change all applications from my company.
(I get this error from all application updated from VS 2003 to VS 2010 developed since 2005)

Power view couldn't load the model or data source because the data source type is not supported

Hi,
I have SQL 2012 standard edition in my local. I have developed SSAS & deployed in local. I have been asked to develop power view report in excel 2013 using this SSAS. But when I tried to do in Excel 2013 professional Plus, I am getting below error:
Power view couldn't load the model or data source because the data source type is not supported.
Does power view is supported in standard edition of SQL or it requires Business/Enterprise edition of SQL server?
Thanks in advance

What type of SSAS install are you using?
PowerView in Excel 2013 currently only supports Tabular data sources.
Only PowerView in Sharepoint 2013 supports both Tabular and Multi-Dim data sources. (provided you have the required Sharepoint and SQL updates installed)

Change data source - mail merge

I have a mail merge document which was migrated to a new server. Now every time when I run the mail merge document it tells me "Error has occurred: The Microsoft Access database could not find the object ' '. Make sure the object exists and
that you spell its name and the p". In the error it points to the old path on the server. When I click OK the data link properties window pops up. I change the data source to point to the path of the new server and the document opens up. The only problem is
that this does not save. I have to specify the new path to the server everytime. How do I set this permanently?

1. Do you have the same problem if you try to connect a completely new Word document to the data source? If so, probably something wrong with the Excel file - if you can reconstruct it, or even create a test file with the same sheet name and column names,
that may show that the file is/was at fault.
2. For the default OLE DB connection type, the SQL message is the correct one - the SQL does not reference the workbook path or name - that comes from the file name or connection string which is not displayed in that dialog box.
3. When you see the SQL warning and click Yes, do you then see a dialog box which provides the workbook path/name. Does that file exist? Is it the one you expect? If yes, again, I would suspect the Excel file. If no, the wrong data source is "sticking".
That will happen if the previous data source has not been properly disconnected - e.g. If you proceed from the dialog I mention, then choose the option to find the data source in the next or subsequent dialog, it does then appear that you have corrected
the problem, but in fact Word "reverts" to the previous source the next time you open. Typically clicking Yes in the SQL dialog box should disconnect the old data source, but I would at least "make sure" by e.g. setting the mail merge main
document type to Normal Word Document in the mailings tab.

Changing Data Source for command objects

Hi,
My report (designed in CR 10) is running based on the Stored Procedure call using a command object; which is running successfully in the DEV environment. The report data source connectivity is a DSN.
Now i want to switch it to QA environment with different DSN name. When i tried to update the Change Data Source option, it doesn't allows to update the existing command with a new command!!!!
I don't know how to fix this. Could any one of you have idea, pls. share it here???
Thanks
Viswa

If you have same table structure in new data source then you can change the datasource connection.
Follow the steps in this article
KBase Article ID:c2016958
Article refers to:Crystal Reports 10
Symptom
In Crystal Reports (CR) 10, can you change the database connection of an existing command object to use a different database connection without the use of a Crystal Repository?
Resolution
Yes, you can change the database connection of an existing command object to use a different database connection without the use of a Crystal Repository by using the following steps:
====================
NOTE:
You must apply the CR 10 Monthly Hot Fix (cr10win_en.zip) and the CR 10 Database and Export Drivers Monthly Hot Fix (dbex10win_en.zip) before starting the steps below.
You can download these hot fixes at http://support.businessobjects.com/search
====================
1. Open a report with a command object.
2. Go the 'Database' menu and click 'Set Datasource Location'.
3. In the 'Set Datasource Location' dialog box, select the connection for the command object (the connection appears as a cylinder with a plug).
4. In the lower window, select the new connection and log on to the database.
5. Ensure the connection is highlighted for the command object in the top window, and the connection is highlighted for the new command object in the bottom window.
6. Click Update.
The database connection for the command object now changes to use the new database connection information.

The '' secondary data source is not a relational data source, or does not use an OLE DB provider.

Hi,
We are using Teradata as data source in SSAS 2008R2, it’s using ‘.Net Providers\.Net Data Provider for Teradata’.
In DSV, we have two data sources both using Teradata. While processing dimensions, all dimensions coming from secondary data source has error message”
The '' secondary data source is not a relational data source, or does not use an OLE DB provider.”
But we are not using OLE DB provider for now, we’ve searched some threads that named queries can be replaced for secondary ds, but since we have a lot of tables, it’s hard to implement using named queries.
Any inputs would be appreciated.

Hi memostone,
When defining a data source view that contains tables, views, or columns from multiple data sources, the first data source from which you add objects to the data source view is designated as the primary data source (you cannot change the primary data
source after it is defined). After defining a data source view based on objects from a single data source, you can then add objects from other data sources.
If an OLAP processing or a data mining query requires data from multiple data sources in a single query, the primary data source must support remote queries using
OpenRowset. Typically, this will be a SQL Server data source.
Here are the restrictions:
The primary data source should be SQL Server and support OpenRowset to the secondary data source.
Or you design the cube in such a way that rocessing for each object only needs to access data from a single data source
I recommand you refer to the following article:
Defining a Data Source View (Analysis Services):

Change data source

Hi,
In portal EP6.0
In System Administrator->System Configuration->UM Configuration here in Data Source Tab already data source is assigned to "Read-only microsoft ADS ( Deep Hierarchy ) + Data base". I changed this data source to "Read-only SAP System + Data base" and saved.
But it is giving warninig message saying 'you are not allowed to select dataSourceConfiguration_R/3.xml as Active configuration file. This will lead to inconsistancy'.
How can we change data source?
Thanks in Adv.
Ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
You want to change the configuration to this "Read-only SAP System + Data base" rite ?
Dont change from here -System Administrator->System Configuration->UM Configuration in Data Source Tab
Start the Config Tool by executing j2eeconfigtoolconfigtool.bat.
Switch to Edit mode.
In the tree, navigate to Global server configuration ® services ® com.sap.security.core.ume.service
Here change the value of the property ume.persistence.data_source_configuration to the one you want to apply(for example dataSourceConfiguration_R/3.xml)
Click on "Apply Custom" Save the changes.
Restart the cluster.
This should work.
Let me know if you need any other help.
Thanks,
Samta

My ipad 2 will not connect to the internet I've tried to manually enter it but its not recognising it or finding any connections. I've reset it to factory settings twice and its not clearing it. Does anyone have any ideas??

My ipad 2 will not connect to the internet I've tried to manually enter it but its not recognising it or finding any connections. I've reset it to factory settings twice and its not clearing it. Does anyone have any ideas??

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
