Use 10.8.2, but somehow with old version of Notes

Until yesterday, I accessed Notes easily and pretty much daily. However, did a Spotlight search for a list of DVDs, and that turned my 10.8.2 Notes to a smaller virtual tablet.
This is what I get:
It looks like a prior version of Notes, like an older version. I can't use (Cmd-Q) to quit the Note; I can only Force Quit. Nothing happens if I tap on the Garbage can icon on Notes.
What should I do to fix this bug? How do I get my prior, fully functional Notes working again?
Thanks!

I always respond to my own questions, and I guess I'm doing this solo this time.
I looked through prior posts, and discovered a solution: Go to ~/System/Containers folder, and delete the plist file; don't touch the data file in the same folder. Reboot. Notes miraculously returns to normal - though I couldn't tell you what happened.

    Hello can someone help me I have an iphone 4 and my daughter has an ipod touch we are on the same email address but somehow with in the last 25hrs all of my contacts are gone and only hers on on my phone is there a way for me to get all my contacts back?

    If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
    With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
    But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person

  • Addons - new versions of addon with old versions of B1

    Hi guys,
    Does anyone know if new versions of addons work with old versions of SAP B1?
    I have a client who is asking for the latest Payment Engine (PL70) but they are on SAPB1 2005A SP01 PL12 which has the Payment Engine PL30.
    My thinking is that you will need to upgrade the B1 app to PL34, if you want to use the latest addon?
    or am i way out and infact the addons work independently of B1 and will therefore work on an old patch of B1?
    TIA,
    John Treweeks

    Hi John,
    Patches are bug fixes and do not change functionality (unless the functionality was broken of course ). Addons communicate through the UI and DI APIs which are installed as part of the patch. Therefore, the theory should be that addons are pretty much patch independent.
    But, as has been pointed out above, it's really difficult to predict exactly what results you'll get. I guess sometimes an addon patch could have been released in order to correct a problem that was both addon and DI API related. In that case, you'd need to install the addon patch and the SBO patch.
    I never recommend you go to the latest patch until it has been around for a few weeks. However, going to a patch that is dated just prior to the addon patch release sounds like a sensible policy. In any case, testing is vital, prior to installation on a production site.
    Kind Regards,
    Owen

  • Ingest new version with old version archived - Revisited & solved

    I couldn't react to the old thread anymore, but I'd like to share the solution with this forum, because it shows the power of the default functionality in the system.
    Start situation: asset is archived, new version comes in, overwrite is set to 'on'.
    What happens and could happen afterwards: new version 'takes the place' on the hard drive of the old version, new proxies are created, the archive flag on the asset is still on. A restore would place the old version back on the hard drive erasing the new version. No new proxies are created, so original asset would be old version, proxies are from new version. New version - Original Media is lost.
    So this is how I solved it:
    I created a subscription - event type = modified - in which the Asset Filter is set to:
    Archive Status EQUALS Offline
    File Modification Date: the Trigger-if-changed box is ticked.
    The response is changing the status of the asset to 'New Version'.
    A second subsription - event type = modified - has the Asset Filter set to:
    Archive Status EQUALS Offline
    (Asset) Status EQUALS 'New Version' with Trigger-if-changed box ticked.
    The response is:
    1. changing the status to 'Completed'
    2. duplicating the file to another device, "Archive_Exchange" (no Asset, no Proxy created)
    3. restoring the (old) file from the archive.
    A third subscription - event type = modified - is subscribing to a job:
    The job filter is:
    Title CONTAINS 'Restoring'
    Owner EQUALS 'admin'
    Status EQUALS 'DONE' - Trigger-if-changed box is ticked
    plus definition of FROM and TO devices.
    The response is:
    Scan the device "Archive_Exchange"; the only metadata which is set here is:
    Metadata Set equals 'Media' and status equals 'New Version'. No proxies needed.
    Subscription #4 - event type = created - is looking for the newly created asset on 'Archive_Exchange'
    So filter is: Metadata Set EQUALS Media, Device (Stored On) EQUALS Archive_Exchange and status EQUALS 'New Version'.
    The response is this time exactly the same response as when this new version had come in while the old version was not in the archive. So it's copying the new version in the usual device, overwriting the old version and that's it! To keep the temporary device Archive_Exchange clean, there is also a delete response.
    It's a little bit 'Working-around-the-bugs', because why is the system copying the new version to another device, while it knows the Original Media is in the archive, but still, it works and the beauty is: no scripts needed!
    Thanks for your input; it made me understand processes better so I could create this monster.

    There are two basic paradigms that you can use to interact with Final Cut Server files.
    One is to let the filesystem be the master. With this, the original files are sitting in the filesystem, and anyone with permissions can mess with them. FCSvr can see changes (via scans) and update itself accordingly. File names must be unique for anything stored in the same directory.
    The second method is to let FCSvr be the master. In this, you don't mess with the filesystem--all file interactions are done indirectly like through watchers, uploads, and archiving/restoring. File names must be unique, unless you create the device as a contentbase device type.
    Each method can make sense at different times. Generally the second is the safer approach, but the first makes sense like for FCP capture scratch folders and production scans.
    If you upload an asset directly to the FCSvr client application, it will provide you with a dialog box to prevent you from overwriting an existing file if there's a name conflict and it's not a contentbase device. (Nick, it will prompt you even if the old file is archived.)
    If you choose to overwrite, the original asset will be deleted and any archive device instance will be orphaned. If that's what you're doing, I don't understand your issue since you told it to overwrite.
    But if you've mixed paradigms by going behind FCSvr's back (via the Finder or Terminal) to copy a new media file into a place that FCSvr knew was reserved by an archived file and would have prevented had you done it through the client app, then you're asking for trouble.
    Your solution options are: use unique names for files, store them in subfolders that are scanned, or store them in contentbase devices. For the first two you can use the project name or number to help make the file names/folder names unique.

    Numbers documents from iOS need Numbers 3.2 on a Mac to open. And Numbers 3.2 requires Mavericks. If you are using Mavericks you can get Numbers 3.2 from the Mac App Store. It will be free IF you have Numbers 2 (iWork '09) installed. Otherwise you must buy it.
    Your other option is to send the Numbers file as an Excel file via e-mail to yourself to open with an earlier version of Numbers.

  • HT202879 How can I open a file made with old version of Pages (before 09)?

    I need to open a file made with old version of Pages (before 09).  How can I do this?  I only have iworks Pages free with Mac Book Pro.

    You need either Pages '09 or the original Pages '08? programs.
    With Pages '09 you simply open it and it accurate converts it to Pages '09. Pages 5 will open the Pages '09 version but may alter/damage the file.
    With Pages '08 you Export it to Word .doc/.docx with mixed results, then open that in Pages 5 which may alter/damage the file.

  • Im trying to bring a movie from imovie to a pc using a flash drive, but the movie file (.mov) will not play on a pc

    Im trying to bring a movie from imovie to a pc using a flash drive, but the movie file (.mov) will not play on a pc. help!

    I would like to offer you some additional hair, but I've pulled mine out as well.  I have created a slideshow of my daughter's new house (a very nice place indeed) as a house-warming gift, took all the pix myself with a throw-away camera made into CD's, imported all of the photos, cropped and enhanced with Iaza online free photo editor, re-saved the new ones to a folder, imported the selected ones into iPhoto, had the best thematic photo printed in 8x10 format, bought the black DVD's, made the MPEG-4 movie as well as the suggested exportable to iPhone, created a folder with the slides, crafted a nice playlist in iTunes, merged it all in iPhoto, but cannot successfuly export it into iDVD. The technical documentation and writing for some of this stuff is sloppy and sometimes unintelligible. The instructional videos are incomplete. The One-on-One fellow was most helpful the other day and said Apple doesn't really have or support an functional DVD creation tool and suggested I choose one or another "app" at the "app store", but the reviews for the two major ones are shallow in depth and I haven't yet sprunf for the $20-$40 download so I can re-experience the difficult learning curve. The Macintoshs I once used were incredibly intuitive; the iMac requires some study. The slideshow I have is imperfect becauae it keeps reverting to custom slide-specific choices I have decided (several times) that I do not want, but it keeps slipping back into "Ken Burns" mode and some of the photos don't work in that mode because of their format. But I will settle for less-than-perfect if I can figure out the best way to export the MPEG-4 I have created into a Maxell DVD-R some time before my daughter's toddlers aged 4 and 2 get into kindergarten.

    Using Firefox browser I can convert to the newest version of Yahoo mail and for this conversion it works satisfactorily.

  • USB Flash Drive not readable using 10.4.6 but is with 10.3.9

    I noticed that a 32MB USB Flash Drive that used to work on my Powerbook when it was running 10.3.9 became unreadable when I upgraded to 10.4.6. This flash drive still works on my Dell WinXP system and I just tried booting the powerbook off a clone of my 10.3.9 setup (on an external firewire drive) and my flash drive works on that. So it appears to me that 10.4 has introduced a software bug that has disabled support for some flash drives. I will note that I also use a USB compact flash reader for transfering digital pictures and that does work under 10.4.6 so the problem does not affect all USB flash devices.
    Is Apple aware of this? Are they working on it?
    PB 1.5 GHz G4 15   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Have you tried to open it in disk utility? Probably won't, but worth a shot. If not and you don't know who made it, then I'd say your out of luck. Probably time for a new Flash drive.
    A 32meg Flash Drive today is very cheap if you can find one. You can get a 250 meg Flash drive for $20-$30. That's 8 times the storage you have now.

  • In FCPX 10.1.2 how do you edit in proxy mode...and after you are done editing in proxy mode, how do you switch back to original media? I had no problems with old version but complicated with newer version.

    In old version of FCPX I could easily edit in proxy mode which i found to be a quicker way of editing...all i did was goto preferences and click on playback tab and change it from original media to proxy...and i could go right into editing, and when i was finished before i would export my project i would switch back to original media...then i would export my project. Now i'm having a hard time accomplishing this on the newer version fcpx 10.1.2.  Somebody please help me....thanks in advance!!!
