Unstable desktop with 9879, log in delay

so i have all the updates with this build that make the desktop more stable and it is but at times when multitasking it will stop responding and will take 30 min to an hour just respond. I'm more concerned to the fact that they haven't addressed a patch
to fix the 10 min wait when logging in and on a side note the right click can also make the desktop not respond and takes 5-8 min to appear so its hard for me to rename or delete items and etc....

Don't know how to end up wit 9879. Was it via PC settings upgrade, or ISO clean install ?
Would you care to consider a reinstall of 9879 ?
A clean install might prevent the issues you are now facing.

Build 9879 Enterprise version ISO download.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-windows-technical-preview-for-enterprise?i=1
In case you don't know.....
After the iso is downloaded, burn it to a bootable DVD and use it to install.
I use Windows USB/DVD Download Tool to burn iso files to DVDs. It never fails me and it's absolutely simple to use.

  • My mac froze in an application so I shut it down by powering off with button, now when I try to turn it on I have a grey screen with Apple loge and the timer swirling but it doesn't get past this, please help!

    I Shut down my Mac by holding in the power button after my iMac froze and now when I try to turn it back it on all I get is the grey screen with Apple loge and the timer and doesn't get any further.  I have tried the diagnostic test but nothing was found.

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    To restart an unresponsive computer, press and hold the power button for a few seconds until the power shuts off, then release, wait a few more seconds, and press it again briefly.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
    b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
    c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
    Step 3
    Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 4
    If a desktop Mac hangs at a plain gray screen with a movable cursor, the keyboard may not be recognized. Press and hold the button on the side of an Apple wireless keyboard to make it discoverable. If need be, replace or recharge the batteries. If you're using a USB keyboard connected to a hub, connect it to a built-in port.
    Step 5
    If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
    Step 6
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Step 7
    If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
    If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 8
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
    Step 9
    If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.  
    Step 10
    Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 11
    Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 12
    This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 13
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • If I were to purchase the Apple Remote Desktop with Unlimited licenses, would I be able to install the client software on each of there computers/laptops and have them remote desktop into the server?

    I have several friends and family who are looking for a central place to access information from ( Pictures, home movies etc ).  So I am considering setting up an OSX Lion Server.  There are some other things I can use it for as well.
    Here is my question:
    If I were to purchase the Apple Remote Desktop with Unlimited licenses, would I be able to install the client software on each of there computers/laptops and have them remote desktop into the server?  Or would I have to install the Admin software on each?  Do they intend it to be used strictly as one admin to access many clients? 
    I always could set up a network drive so they can log in and just see the folders they have created with space on the server I provide them.  But I want them to be able to log an and actually use it as a Remote Desktop.
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Dave,
    Thanks for the feedback.  I understand that ARD is meant for Remote Administration, but I was not sure if it could be used for my purpose as well.  The reason I was looking to do it this was was because I read several articles online about security and performance issues with setting up VNC and activating screen sharing.  Unless I am misunderstood. 
    As far as people's activities on the server, mostly it is going to be used as a place for them to store their media.  I will only allow own person ( Who I trust and I know wont botch the server ), to run applications.  Everyone else will be restricted to uploading and downloading content to their designated account on the server as well as a community share on the server.
    I appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Eric

  • Working with AVCHD: Log and Transfer FAQs

    Disclaimer: Apple does not necessarily endorse any suggestions, solutions, or third-party software products that may be mentioned in the topic below. Apple encourages you to first seek a solution at Apple Support. The following links are provided as is, with no guarantee of the effectiveness or reliability of the information.

    Working with AVCHD: Log and Transfer FAQs
    Log and Transfer was introduced to the product chain in Final Cut Express 4, and is the program's process for ingesting files in the AVCHD format utilizing MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video coding and either Dolby AC-3 or uncompressed linear PCM audio coding. The most frequently observed problems relating to the Log and Transfer process are generally quite easily addressed.
    What should I know before attempting to ingest my footage?
    The following facts regarding the Log and Transfer process were adapted from the [Apple Knowledge Base article|http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24840?viewlocale=en_US] on transferring AVCHD in Final Cut Pro 6.0.1 but still hold true for the current version of FCE:
    AVCHD support is available only on Intel-based Macintosh computers.
    AVCHD camcorders typically connect to computers via USB 2.0, not FireWire.
    DVD-based AVCHD camcorders are not supported in Mac OS X 10.4 or earlier.
    Standard definition video recorded with AVCHD camcorders cannot be accessed in the Log and Transfer window. SD and HD clips should not be mixed on the same HDD.
    Preview of AVCHD video in the Log and Transfer window is limited to 1x forward playback. Scrubbing the playhead does not update the video in the Preview area until you stop scrubbing.
    When you choose to transfer AVCHD audio in the Logging area, audio is automatically mixed down to stereo.
    AVCHD footage is not ingested natively but is transcoded to the Apple Intermediate Codec.
    Apple Intermediate Codec files are significantly larger than the original AVCHD files. FCE does not estimate the size of a transcoded AVCHD file before ingesting, so it is possible to exceed the available space on your capture disk during transfer. Before ingesting, keep in mind that the disk space required is about ten times greater than the size of the native AVCHD file.
    Which specific formats can be ingested by Log and Transfer?
    Only AVCHD footage can be ingested through the Log and Transfer process. Other formats and variants such as AVCHD Lite are not supported. All video should be recorded in a frame size of either 1440x1080 or 1920x1080 and a frame rate of 25 or 29.97 frames per second. Audio recorded on AVCHD camcorders is generally at a rate of 48kHz. If your camera shoots in a format that does not comply with one of these setups then it is most likely not supported by the application and is not guaranteed to work correctly.
    Which Easy Setup preset should I select before ingesting my footage?
    It is extremely important to select the preset that matches your media before you attempt to ingest via Log and Transfer. There is only one Easy Setup preset that matches the frame size and rate of your footage. If you intend to ingest AVCHD clips through Log and Transfer you will first need to select one of the following presets:
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i50
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i60
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i50
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60
    If these four options do not appear under your Easy Setup list then you probably need to run Software Update and update to FCE 4.0.1. DO NOT cycle through the available presets until you find one that works - there is only one preset that matches your media and it should be evident which one to choose by the way it is named. Select the AVCHD preset that mentions your frame size and frame rate (i50 presets support both 50i and 25p frame rates; similarly, i60 presets support both 60i and 29.97p frame rates). If you do cycle through many options in the hope of selecting the correct one through guess-and-check you will probably have corrupted your preference file and need to [trash your preferences|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2611] before continuing.
    Why don't my clips appear when I open the Log and Transfer window?
    Make sure your camcorder records AVCHD in a format supported by FCE4. It should be connected to one of your computer's USB ports (never connect it to an external hard drive or other external device such as your keyboard or a USB hub), powered on, and set to video playback mode.
    If the camcorder +does not+ mount on your Desktop your USB port or cable may be malfunctioning. Try plugging it in to another port or using a different USB cable to see if it makes a difference.
    If the camcorder does mount on your Desktop but the clips do not appear in the Log and Transfer window you will need to point the program to the directory that contains your media.
    First, click the Add Folder button in the upper left of the Log and Transfer window. The button looks like this:
    Then, you will need to navigate to the root directory in which your media is stored. Most camcorders call this folder "PRIVATE" or "AVCHD" and it should be located at the very top level of the camcorder when mounted. If your camcorder records to a valid AVCHD directory structure then your clips should load after the Add Folder process is completed.
    I would like to keep a working backup of my original clips so that I can delete them off the camcorder's internal memory. How should I do this?
    There are two main ways to keep a backup of your clips. The first is to ingest every clip on your camcorder through the Log and Transfer process, and store the Apple Intermediate Codec files the application creates in an easily accessible place such as an external FireWire drive. The advantage of this method is that you have the ability to open back up old editing projects, reconnect the media as necessary, and keep going as if you'd never left. However, due to the large amount of space AIC takes up (usually somewhere in the vicinity of 41-50GB an hour when transcoded from AVCHD), this is not always feasible.
    Another often preferable approach is to copy over the root directory in which your clips are stored (usually named "PRIVATE" or "AVCHD") from the camcorder to your computer or an external drive. As long as you maintain the original file structure, you will be able to ingest your clips again at a later date using the "Add Folder" process detailed above to navigate to their new location.
    My clips appear, but when I attempt to ingest a red exclamation point appears and the window displays the message "Error: No Data"
    This is one of the most common problems that users experience when trying to ingest their media through the Log and Transfer process. Luckily, it also has one of the easiest solutions.
    In the Log and Transfer window, click on the gear icon in the top right and select "Preferences" in the contextual menu that appears.
    Make sure the video is set to transcode to the Apple Intermediate Codec and the audio is set to Plain Stereo.
    After doing so, hit OK and try to ingest again.
    I am experiencing a problem that is not covered in this tip or the solutions here do not work.

  • Creative Cloud Desktop on Mavericks logs out and has a red exclamation point.

    I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro with OS Mavericks on it. Since then, I can log into Creative Cloud desktop with no issues and use the app. But once my laptop goes to sleep and I wake it up, I will have a red exclamation point on the icon in the menu bar. If I click on the icon in the menu bar it will tell me the problem is with apps and if I click on apps it will eventually update and the red exclamation point will go away. But sometimes, when I click on the creative cloud icon in the menu bar it will say there is a problem with the connection and allows me to retry which will eventually get me back in or sometimes it will have just logged me out and I have to log back in.
    It never did this before, I was able to just log in once and it would always be logged in and no network problems.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you.

    I had similiar problem and i just stopped using Creative Cloud desktop. There's lot of other issues with that application that cannot be fixed since July.
    I doubt that this application was created by some who ever worked on Mac. That's why i would recommend patience and disabling launching at start.

  • App-V: A Configuration Template for Deploying to Stateless RDS Clients on Citrix Published Desktops with Citrix UPM for Profile Management

    App-V:  A Configuration Template for Deploying to Stateless RDS Clients on Citrix Published Desktops with Citrix UPM for Profile Management
    Just posted this to the wiki:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/25318.app-v-a-configuration-template-for-deploying-to-stateless-rds-clients-on-citrix-published-desktops-with-citrix-upm-for-profile-management.aspx

    I would not recommend this and keep the package cache and the client on the same non-persistent drive and enable the Shared Content Store. If you separate the cache and the App-V client they could get out of sync and strange behaviour can occur. 
    You can use a temporary local profile with Citrix UPM or UE-V and specify what to roam/save.
    You can use the Shared Content Store so packages will stream over the network. When the user logs on there is a publishing phase where shortcuts etc are created for the user, this will take some time.
    Are you using the App-V full infrastructure?
    Are you using a boot disk, partition or PXE in combination with PVS?

  • Share desktop with Microsoft Lync

    Hi guys,
    I was wondering if anyone knows how to share desktops with Microsoft Lync peers?  I would like to be able to view as well as share my desktop.  I have a working pidgin sipe configuration, but haven't come across any documentation indicating pidgin can work like lync (share/view desktops).
    Any other ideas as to what I might try?
    Thanks,
    Walter

    Thanks Holger. That blog is a bit over my head but also helpful. I had my network guy check our configuration on our Edge and 3478 UDP is open in both directions for the A/V service and IP so not sure what the issue is. As for our firewall, anything over
    1024 should be allowed out.
    In this particular incident, Microsoft sent me the meeting request and I initiated the request by clicking on the link in the email launching my locally installed Lync client. Microsoft tech then made me the presenter at which point I had the option to share
    my desktop. It's at this point that the connection drops.
    I turned on Centralized logging and clicked on the meeting invite from Microsoft one more time. The tech at the other end was not there of course but I did generate some traffic that I was able to view using Centralized logging. I determined that the traffic
    is most definitely going through the Edge server at least in this situation.
    I did find an error in the log that was interesting and have a question on. The error read:
    ms-diagnostics: 1017;reason="Cannot route From and To domains in this combination";summary="Cannot route between the source and destination domains because
    partner discovery is not enabled";external-domain="microsoft.com";external-type="domain-type-remote";internal-domain="mydomain.com"
    ";internal-type="domain-type-local";source="My edgeserver.com"
    ms-edge-proxy-message-trust: ms-source-type=EdgeProxyGenerated;ms-ep-fqdn=fqdn of my Edge;ms-source-verified-user=verified
    I took a look in Control Panel and under Federation and External Access --> Access Edge Configuration -->Enable partner domain discovery is NOT enabled. I am thinking
    I should not have to have a Federation with Microsoft to have a Lync meeting and share my Desktop, correct?
    I don't think turning this option on is a good thing because it looks like it will automatically establish a Federation with anyone and you lose control over which companies you want to Federate with.

  • Exchange logging of delayed messages

    We are having the known issue of delayed outbound messages (last error: 400 4.4.7 message delayed), whereas the suggested ways to fix it are to edit the host file on cas/ht servers or to turn on external DNS and then add smtp addresses as needed. 
    Of course we can telnet to these same addreses and successfully send messages, so it makes it look like our DNS is broken, but our DNS appears to be working fine.  We are trying to investigate this further to confirm the DNS is indeed working as it should
    so I checked to make sure logging was turned on in the cas/ht servers and the outbound connector is set to verbose logging.  I have also looked at some of the tools in the EMC toolbox to trace problem child messages.  Out of all of this, including
    looking at logs, all I can see is the message goes out and/or it didn't get delivered, depending on what tool or log I am looking at.  I don't see anything else to indicate why it is having a problem with the message, thereby delaying it.  I don't
    want to edit the host file as that is a hokey to manage this, and not the best option, and I was told by my supervisors that before we turn on external DNS we really need to find out why this is happening (and I really don't want to have to add smtp addresses
    and domains as additonal housekeeping, this really shouldn't be necessary).  Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can do with the logging or tools to fill in the gaps?  As I said, all I get is that it failed to deliver, and well, I knew that going
    in.  Thanks for any suggestions.  : )

  • I LOST MY DESKTOP WITH MAPS ON MY IMAC

    I was copying my music folder to an external HD, and on a certain moment i lost my orginal itunes settings with all my submaps, all music titles still oke but no submaps anymore. I lost also my desktop with all the maps and files wich were there. I only see on my desktop now the HDD of my imac.
    In the finder i found the maps still under desktop icon, but when i want to bring them into my desktop it says:
    the item can not be removed, due that the desktop can not be changed.....
    UNDER FINDER: i find the icon desktop, on all my other mac computers it says bureaublad, as i am using dutch language, coule that be that he took a new desktop that he is not reconising . On my timemachine it speaks also of bureaublad instead of desktop.
    Also when i want to reset from my timemachine, I njever see the orginal desktop info anymore, as my Itues subtitles can not been set back anymore;
    Please help , what i need to do, to solve my problems.
    iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

    Take these steps if the cursor changes from an arrow to a white "prohibited" symbol when you try to move an icon on the Desktop.
    Sometimes the problem may be solved just by logging out or rebooting. Try that first, if you haven't already done it.
    Select the icon of your home folder (a house) in the sidebar of a Finder window and open it. The Desktop folder is one of the subfolders. Select it and open the Info window. In the General section of the window, the Kind will be either Folderor something else, such as Anything.    
    If the Kind is Folder, uncheck the box marked Locked. Close the Info window and test.
    If the Kind is not Folder, make sure the Locked box is not checked and that you have Read & Write privileges in the  Sharing & Permissions section. Then close the Info window and do as follows.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    xattr -d com.apple.FinderInfo Desktop
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    If the problem is now resolved, and if you use iPhoto, also do as follows.
    Quit iPhoto, if it's running, and relaunch it while holding down the option key. It will prompt you to select a library. Choose the one you want to use (not the Desktop.)

  • This is just to report a problem with Apple updates. I updated recently and the computer brought up my 2012 desktop with all my 2014 files and data including stickies missing! Now I hesitate to do another Apple update. What would you do?

    Apple Updates: This is just to report a problem. I updated recently and on restart the computer restored up my 2012 desktop with all my 2014 files and data including stickies missing!!! Now I hesitate to do another Apple update. What would you do?

    If all your files are missing
    You may have logged in as a different user, such as Guest. Open the Users & Groups pane in System Preferences. Your name should be at the top of the user list, under Current User. See also this support article.   
    If files are missing from one folder
    Change the Finder view mode; for example, from icon view to list view, or vice versa.
    If files are present, but seem outdated
    You may have started up from a different volume (disk.) Open the Startup Disk preference pane and check the selection.

  • How do I share desktop with Lion user?

    So prior to installing Mountain Lion, I provided tech support to my mom by sharing her desktop via iChat. Now though, I can't figure out how to share her desktop. I'm using Mountain Lion, she still has Lion. So she doesn't have Messages and I don't have iChat. I can't even send her a text message, because Messages says she's not registered with iMessage. All the documentation I can find about sharing desktops on Mountain Lion says that you can share desktops with someone else on your same network, but I can't find anything about sharing desktops over the internet like we used to do with iChat. If I can avoid walking her through installing a VNC client, I would really like that.

    Hi Wade,
    You seem to be describing an @me.com name that you used for iChat and was a MobileMe and now is an iCloud name.
    This "Account" should be active in Mail, Contacts and Calendars for Messages
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    As far as the AIm Servers are concerned the @mac.com name and the @me.con iCloud Name  are in fact separate AIM Screen Names.
    If your Buddies are in the @mac.com Buddy List they will not appear in the @me.com name you have linked it to at Apple.
    That is to say If I had an @mac.com and an @Me.com name  AIM would see them as separate Screen Names.
    One stage further:-
    ralphjohnsr (AIM registered name)
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    are three separate AIM "Accounts" 
    (They are also three separate Buddies if you were adding them to Your Buddy list - although only one of them is real)
    You said your mother does not have Messages.
    Only Messages can send iMessages  (The Apple iD you have set up for this may or may not be an iCloud ID)
    iChat cannot accept iMessages.
    If she has iOS 5.x.x on her iPhone (depending on the level of technology you have managed to get her to embrace) then you could send her iMessages that way.
    SO...
    Your Message > Preferences > Accounts  should list the iMessages "Account" and those iChat ones you had
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    An iCloud name that is the iMessages Account name may also need to be added as an "AIM" iChat type Account.
    If the Jabber ID is only used at work and is not going to be used then you can untick the Messages item next to it in System Preferences > Mail, Contacts and Calendars or Untick the "Enable this Account" in Messages > Preferences > Accounts.

  • Is Desktop with AMD Processor suitable for SAP ECC6.0?

    Hi,
    I want to install SAP ECC 6.0, ESS/MSS, EP , NWDI on my desktop.
    I have desktop with following configuration.
    AMD 3.0 Ghz Processror
    4 GB DDR 3 RAM
    500 GB Hard Disk
    OS:
    Windows 2003 Enterprise Server 32 bit
    I have tried to install SAP packages on above desktop which fails every time. Prerequisite checks goes fine.
    Installation will fail at Step 12.
    I dont understand whether the AMD processor will support for SAP or not.
    Please help me.

    Hi,
    Two things:
    1. Refer to the Product Availability Matrix for SAP systems at http;//service.sap.com/pam and click on the link for SAP ERP 6.0. This will show you all the product-OS-DB-Processor combinations that SAP supports. Basically, the platforms that are supported by various SAP products. You should only install SAP products on platforms that are listed here.
    (FYI - For SAP ERP, Win 2003/32bit is only supported for IA32 processors. check PAM)
    2. Still, paste the logs from the SAPInst log file as suggested above and we can tell you in detail what the issue might be.
    Regards,
    Shitij

  • Using multiple desktops with a 4 finger swipe on a Mac Book Pro running Lion- is there a way that I can allow Safari open on several but not all??  Looks like I can set it for one but not others.  All, one, or nothing

    Using multiple desktops with a 4 finger swipe on a Mac Book Pro running Lion- is there a way that I can allow Safari open on several but not all??  Looks like I can set it for one but not others.  All, one, or nothing

    Hey Eric,
    Thanks for taking the time. Unfortunately no that does not solve it. Same as swipe it will get me there and it will show separate programs spaced out. The issue I am having is that all my open word files are bunched up in a pile on top of each other. I can see the edges of each one but I want them to be separated from each other enough that I can visually identify what file is what.
    Again, thanks for trying, it is appreciated.
