Trying to find out what processes are executing in Win2k

I am trying to determine if a given background process is running in Win2k. It is a device driver I use for communications that does not create a window, so I cannot use the vi's that look for window names. Obviously, the program name does not show up in the toolbar, either. I know that the Win API has functions for getting this information, but the Microsoft site is horrible for finding stuff unless you know specific keywords and I haven't had any luck finding my information there.
Thanks in advance,
Larry

Probably because the single url was broken up by my news poster into 2
lines. If you combine the 2 lines into one you should be OK.
Another option, go to http://msdn.microsoft.com and search for
EnumProcesses. That is the API that lists all processes. The other (longer)
url is to a page the describes how to use the api (with sample) and
describes some wrapper functions in PSAPI.DLL that makes it easier. One
thing to note is that this API will not work on Win 95/98/Me. For these,
there is another option, but I can not rem
ember what it is. I suspect if you
search on msdn you will find something.

HT204088 i have charges on my bank account, trying to find out what they are for so I know which kids to collet from - we have 5 apple ids so not real

You can view an account's purchase history via your computer's iTunes : log into an account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases.
Or you can view the last 90 days purchases on an account, and optionally contact iTunes Support if there is a problem with one of them, via http://reportaproblem.apple.com
There isn't a site/place where you can type in order numbers.

About De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
Also, see iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.

11.1.2- Need to find out what reports are being executed by a user

Hi,
We have financial reports executed from workspace.In essbase session , only the user id is displayed and the Request type- mdxreport is displayed. We also tried searching the log for Financial report didnt find anything relevant.
Is there a way to find out what reports are being executed by the user.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Saumya

STAT will give you the information for a limited period of time and is limited to the server which you are logged onto yourself. Beyond 24 hours it is of even less use even if you change the selection screen values.
If you want it for a period way back into the past, then you need to use ST03N.
There are at least 2 dependencies and 1 confusion:
1 dependency) The length of period is determined by the size (length) of the file. You can change this in ST03N (default 50MB) via the menu settings.
2 dependency) The stat collector jobs need to be scheduled to write the information to ST03N (once per hour is a legal requirement in some non-banana republic countries).
1 confusion) There is an obscure function which converts a report submit to a transaction name (there is not much difference anyway) and an even more obsure one which filters what ST03N will record and therefore whether you can read it. You can (un)filter these things away if you search the SAP Marketplace for the term "MONI".
What is of particular value from this control is that you can even detect a submission of an abap which only existed temporarily.
Also note that having this information is potentially very powerfull with respect to the users (some of them are human too), so you should expose and use it responsibly.
You should also ensure that only responsible users / auditors have access to S_TOOLS_EX.

How to find out what process touched a file

I am currently running Leopard 10.5.7 on a MacBook. Some of my system files' permissions keep getting screwed up. It happens randomly, and when it does I have to repair permission and reboot the computer to fix it. I am trying to isolate the problem. Is there a way to find out what processes or applications touched a certain file? thanks.

Tony:
Did you try repairing your keychain?
Look in your 'Utilities' folder for the 'Keychain Access' application.
Run it and use the 'Keychain Access/Keychain First Aid' menu...follow the prompts. After repairs, restart and see if the situation improves.
If you are determining permission repair status on a repeated basis by simply doing a repair and reacting to the immediate report there, you may be chasing ghosts.
If you are encountering legitimate issues when running various apps, you may need to check the basics. If there are other users on the machine or you have moved standard applications to custom locations you may have to simplify your overall machine's configuration and go from there.
Good luck in any case.

How do I find out what features are not useful in my Classifier?

How do I find out what features are not useful in my Classifier? I am trying to trim down the number of features to speed up the training of my data, I have about 3700 features. I have found the Filter Based Feature Selection Module and have not been successful
in using it. I have looked through all the examples and have not been able to find any examples using the module. Will the Filter Based Feature Selection Module help me to trim features. If so how do I use it?

One way to do this would be is to use a random forest classifier. Feature/variable importance can be obtained relatively easily with random forests.
Here is how you may do it in R.
> install.packages('randomForest') #install randomForest package in R if it is not already there
> library(randomForest) # reference the library
> data(mtcars) # load motor cars data that ships with
#train a random forest
> mtcars.rf <- randomForest(mpg ~ ., data=mtcars, ntree=1000,keep.forest=FALSE, importance=TRUE)
> importance(mtcars.rf)
> importance(mtcars.rf)
#You will see an output like below
%IncMSE IncNodePurity
cyl 16.168645 169.96741
disp 18.672188 260.08722

drat 6.948743 63.54528

qsec 4.772889 33.25546
vs 5.303058 24.39064
am 5.210181 17.36626
gear 4.619161 21.55450
carb 8.577037 28.46715
# or plot the importance as follows
> varImpPlot(mtcars.rf)
What this tells you is how important predictors/features/variables like horsepower(hp), weight(wt), no. of cylinders (cyl) is in predicting miles per gallon (mpg).
If you are wondering how the data looks like. Try this
head(mtcars) # gives first few lines of the data set.
mpg cyl disp  hp drat   wt ...
Mazda RX4     21.0   6  160 110 3.90 2.62 ...

Datsun 710    22.8   4  108  93 3.85 2.32 ...

HT204088 I forget the answers to my security questions, how do I find out what they are?

I'm trying to buy a song for an important event and due to it being the first time on this laptop that I am purchasing a song, I have to provide the answers to my securit questions and i cant remember them. How do I find out what they are? Please.

f you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox).

How do I find out what accounts are authorized to sync with my iPod?

I'm trying to download a video onto my iPod classic, but I keep getting a message saying it won't download because the iPod can only contain information from five different accounts. But when I checked how may accounts were authorized, iTunes said there were only two accounts out of the available five that were authorized. I really want this movie on my iPod but I'm not sure where to go from here?

"How do I find out what computers are authorized to use my Store Account? "
The ones that you authorized. There is no list.
"Do my iPhones count towards the 5?"
No.
ONLY computers count.

How do i find out what devices are authorised on my apple ID?

I have just bought a new iMac and want to get all my itunes library etc on it. However, apparently i have reached my limit of 5 authorisations, which is entirely possible as I have had a number of iphones, Macair and ipads, some of which I either no longer own or are no longer functioning. How do I find out what devices are authorised and then deauthorise any that I don't use any more - given that they may not even work!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't de-authorise just the computers you no longer have access to.
Your only option is to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise those you wish to be authorised. You can do this by logging into your account settings in iTunes on your computer (Store > View My ID) and selecting the option to de-authorise all.
Please note however, you are only permitted to do this once in each 12 month period, therefore you would be better de-authorising your computers before you lose access to them. you can do this from the 'Store' menu in iTunes.

Oh, then you can't unless you know someone with a Mac you could use for a moment or 2. (Like at the Apple Store)

How can I find out what apps are on my step daughters phone without the phone?

How can I find out what apps are on my step daughters phone without the phone? She is on my phone plan but does not live with me and I am concerned about the apps she may be using.

baniville108,
Thank you for reaching out to us. We certainly know the importance of being able to know what options are available with your device. With apps on devices, thoses are specific to the phone itself, so there is no open forum to view what apps are downloaded. The only option would be to physically review from the phone, or if you have the same Apple ID you can log into it and view from there. Please let us know if you need anymore assistance.
Thank you,
