Using both firewire 400 & 800 at the same time?

I have a 20" Imac 2.66ghz, and I have a 1TB WD Studio Edition My Book attached to the firewire 800 port. It is partitioned in to two 500GB partitions, one for time machine, and one for media.
I have a Canon MD101 DV camera which I have been trying to import video from, not very succesfully. I had given up, and was going to go to an Apple store to try and sort out the problem.
I have bought a new firewire cable with gold contacts to see if that would improve the situation. Today I managed to import direct from the camera, but I hadn't realised I had disconnected the hard drive by mistake.
On further investigation it would appear I can use either firewire ports seperatly, but not together. My Camera is recognised evrytime by Imovie if the hard drive is disconnected, but not if it is connected.
The problem I have is that the media partition on that hard drive was for my videos imports.
Are there any settings that would enable both firewire ports to be used at the same time?

Hi Peter
Try a 4 to 9 pin FireWire 800 cable and connect the camera up to the spare FireWire 800 port on the back of the WD Studio Drive.

Can we use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in JDBC Receiver

Hi All,
I would like to know is it possible to use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in one interface because I have a requirement in which I have to perform both the task.
user send the file which contains both new and old record and I need to save those in MS SQL database.
If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT.
I looked on sdn but didn't find any blog which perform both the things at the same time.
Interface Requirement
FILE -
> PI -
> JDBC(INSERT & UPDATE)
I am thinking to use JDBC Lookup but not sure if it good to use for bulk record.
Can somebody please suggest me something or send me the link of any blog or anything to solve this problem.
Thanks,

Hi ,
          If I have understood properly the scenario properly,you are not performing insert and update together. As you posted
"If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT."
Thus you are performing either an insert or an update which depends on outcome of a search if the records already exist in database or not. Obviously to search the tables you need " select * from ... where ...." query. If your query returns some results you proceed with update since this means there are some old records already in database. If your query returns no rows you proceed with "insert into tablename....." since there are no old records present in database.
Now perhaps the best method to do the searching, taking a decision to insert or update, and finally insert or update operation is to be done by a stored procedure in MS SQL database. A stored procedure is a subroutine available to applications accessing a relational database system. Here the application is PI server.   If you need further help on how to write and call stored procedure in MS SQL you can look into these links
http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/databases/ms-sql/threads/146829
http://www.sqlteam.com/article/stored-procedures-parameters-inserts-and-updates
[ This part you can ignore, Since its not sure that you will face this situation
    Still you might face some problems while your scenario runs. Lets consider this scenario, after the stored procedure searches the database it found no rows. Thus you proceed with an insert operation. If your database table is being accessed by multiple applications (or users) other than yours then it is very well possible that after the search operation completed with a null result, an insert/update operation has been performed by some other application with the same primary key. Now when you are trying to insert another row with same primary key you get an error message like "duplicate entry not possible for same primary key value". Thus you need to be careful in this respect. MS SQL has a feature called "exclusive locks ". Look into these links for more details on the subject

    There must be other methods to avoid this problem. But the point is you need to be sure that all access to database for insert/update operations are isolated.

Can I use both cs and cc at the same time?

Can I use both cs and cc at the same time after upgrade to Adobe Creative Cloud?

Yep. I have CC and CS installed and they both work. However, I don't see why I should use cs.

MacBook Pro 3,1 - Firewire Bus(ses?), 400 & 800 at the same time

Hi All,
I'm using an RME Fireface 800, which is a FW800 audio interface, but I also have a Maxtor FW400 hard drive.
I know if I daisy-chain the hard drive off the audio interface, then I will drop the bus speed to 400 Mbit/s, but will the same happen if I plug the hard drive into the FW400 port?
I know if I plug something into the FW400 port on my iMac this happens, so everything there is Firewire 800. Should I aim for the same with my MacBook Pro?
Cheers,
Alex

buy something like this:
http://www.siig.com/ViewProduct.aspx?pn=NN-EC2012-S1
they make all different kinds (FW 400, 800, etc.)
plug your camera in either that adapter or your internal FW port
plug your FW drive into the other
capture your video to the EXTERNAL drive.
edit your footage.
you don't say what software you are editing in (FCP, iMovie)

On my wireless printer can i use both usb and wireless at the same time

i tried to print from coupons,com but it will not i have used coupons.com before with my other printer and weorked fine i have coupons.com looking into it
just wondering if anyone else out there have the same problem

Hi,
Same physical printer but when connecting to SAME computer using both USB and wireless it becomes two (logical) printers. Probably your default prnter is the wireless one, you have to select the right printer before print .

Can the USB-8451 run both I2C & SPI Interfaces at the same time?

I have an 8451 on the way and initially will be developing a driver for our product using the SPI I/F. I am also developing a test setup that will use the I2C I/F and need to know if 1 8451 will handle both at the same time or will I have to re-configure each I/F when I need to use it if I have only 1 8451 in the system?
The SPI driver will communicate with our product & the I2C I/F will communicate with the test fixture...
TIA

Well, you may be only able to open 1 VISA session to the 8451, but that doesn't mean you cant use both SPI and I2C at the same time. I guess it depends on what your definition of "same time" is.
I have a project that uses 4 SPI channels and the I2C using a single OEM 8451 simultaneously without having to create a new session for each use. Just create and store (I do it as class data) the visa session handle and create and store all your channel references. Each channel you create does not need its own VISA session. I access the 8451 from several different VIs asynchronously without any problem. The VISA protocol will sort out coincident requests.
Buying a seperate 8451 should definitely not be required

Use one external harddrive on both pc and mac at the same time

i bought an iomega external harddrive today
can i use it on both mac and pc at the same times?
for ex:
when i plug in both computer
i could able to read and write on the hdd on both computer
since i format it into 4 partitions (2 journal and 2 doc)
so i wish i can use them separately in 2 computers

Hi Jerry_L and welocme to Discussions,
using such USB or Firewire connected external harddrives with two computers at the same time is usually not recommended by the manufacturer.
Doing so might lead to data-loss and the like.
Check with the manual of that harddisk to verify.
Using it with one computer at a time with your partitioning should be doable.
Regards
Stefan

I'm new to Mac and the program/all called Numbers. I'm trying to use both Average and small in the same formula. What's I'm trying to do is take 20 cells, find the 10 lowest numbers, then get the average and after that multiply it by .96

I'm new to Mac and the program/all called Numbers. I'm trying to use both Average and small in the same formula. What's I'm trying to do is take 20 cells in a column, find the 10 lowest numbers, then get the average and after that multiply it by .96 I used to use Excel and the formula worked fine in that. Here is my Formula
=(average(small(H201:H220,{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10})))*.96
This formula worked in Excel and when I converted my spreadsheet over to Numbers, this formula no longer works.
The best that I have been able to do so far is use small in 10 different cells, then get the average of the 10 cells and finally multiply that average by .96 So instead of using 1 cell, I'm using 12 cells to get my answer.
This is a formula that I will be using all the time. The next cell would be =(average(small(H202:H221,{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10})))*.96
Hoping I explain myself well enough and that someone can help me.
Thanks

You can still do it in one cell but it will be more unruly than the Excel array formula.
=average(small(H201:H220,1),small(H201:H220,2),small(H201:H220,3),...,small(H201:H220,10))*0.96
where you would, of course, replace the "..." with the remaining six SMALL functions.

Can I use both iPhoto and Aperture on the same library?

I like some of the features of iPhoto (like faces and places) but prefer to work in Aperture for its rich tool content. Is there any way I can use both iPhoto and Aperture on the same library? Or, import images from Aperture into iPhoto?
Thanks much!
John

I think you may have answered a question I have with the above, but to be sure here is what I would like to do. I currently have iPhoto09 with about 50,000 pictures in it, which seems too much for it to manage. I would like to use Aperture, which I understand is better for managing a large number of photos, but still have iPhoto available to make slide shows, etc. for our AppleTV. Would the process you described above work for that?
Thank you

HT4818 Can you use both Bootcamp and Parallels with the same Windows 7 installed

I have Parallels installed with Windows 7. Can I use both Bootcamp and Parallels on the same machine depending on whether I just want to work in Windows all day (Bootcamp) or alternate during the same session (Parallels)?

You can, yes. But there is a complication: once you activate windows it will only be activated for one of the two methods you use. So, let's say you install into boot camp and activate windows. You can then install Parallels and it will find your boot camp installation, but when running in Parallels, Windows will report that it is not activated. Or, you can activate it in Parallels and when running in Boot Camp Windows will report that it is not activated. The reason for this is because Windows thinks it is running on different computers depending on how you boot it. This may not be an issue for you if you run Windows a lot one way and just occasionally the other way, so be sure to activate Windows in whichever method you use more often. Hope this helps!

Can't get 2 firewires to mount at the same time

i just bought 2 500 gb externals to set up a raid, and i can get either one to show individually, but not at the same time- either by daisy chaining or using separate ports. the second will even show up if the first is off when they are daisied. i don't know for sure that i've ever used 2 at once, but am fairly certain i have. the ports all work individually- both 400's and the 800. i tried 1 800 and 1 400 at the same time, and daisied with 800 main + 400 daisy and 800 main + 800 daisy, all to no avail. nothing wrong with the cables- i cross checked. it's flakey mounting and dismounting, too (for instance, stuff disappears once dismounted and won't reappear til i reboot, even if i restart the device).
i reformatted both drives to mac journalled. i searched and have followed the instructs to reset the firewire ports, repaired permissions (many times) zapped the pram, and shut down the comp for 15 mins, inc the power, without any other devices attached to troubleshoot each drive, all to no avail. one strange thing- even the 400 ports showed as 800's in the profiler. only one at a time will show there, as well- whatever is mounted (or the first i mount; the second doesn't show). i should note i had a drive go bad on the 800 port not once but twice in the past year, and assumed it was the drive (it was used), but now i'm wondering if the port's funky. do they go bad and how hard are they to replace?
i don't really want to have to reload my system- i have an awful lot of software loaded and am in the middle of a busy time, plus i suck at that. i'm getting ready to add a couple gigs of ram to speed things up, too. it should be here tomorrow. i'm a retoucher and work on big files that need backed up regularly, which is why i'd like to do the raid and just work off it. i'm not on tiger- have been waiting for leopard, and was so mad when they pushed it back, since it means i have to wait on cs3, too, which really hurts my business. but i'll be darned if i upgrade now and then have to pay again in 3 months. i wish they'd offer the upgrades at half price this close (or do like other co's do and upgrade for free within a reasonable amount of time- not 7 days). any advice i haven't tried? please?
G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9) dual 1.7 mh; 1GB ram; 2, 250's hard drive

ok- i will try to answer what i can, but bear with me- i'm really good at what i do, but this ain't it. some of what you asked i don't know where to find the answers to. to start, the drives are western digital my book pros, 500 gb each. they support firewire 400, 800 & usb. the old drive that failed twice was a lacie 500 gb, too (with the metal case- don't know the official name off the top). i have pro friends who have similar setups with no issues (and am seeking advice from them as well).
i have a 1.8 mh dual, but i do have 8 ram slots, and i wouldn't want to deal with a mac book pro. retouching just doesn't work well with laptops, and i don't travel so i'd have no need. when i'm ready to get a new system, i want an intel quad. hoping i can push that off a year or 2, with the ram additions and raid.
i'm not using pci fw800 card adapter. my friend says he thinks a hardware raid solution like the la cies that run off a SATA card would work better, but he was curious if i can do what i want with the PCI-X card and the drives i have (since i don't want to return them or spend huge amounts more of moolah). so, do you know if i did get one if it would make the raid work? or would a 400 card be better? i'm not a photog filling a tb with each job (which my other refs are) so i don't need the huge volume of space that they do. but i do work on some pretty big files at times, and it can add up quickly. i think a terabyte raid would hold me for quite a while- which is why i did the 2 500's.
when i unplugged the machine and left it down for 15 mins, i unplugged everything, inc power cord, except the mouse and monitor cable, per instructions i found through the apple site.
normally i don't care to be on the bleeding edge and wait a little while to get new software, but it seems like i've waited so long, and leopard has so many features i think would be great. my buds agrees with you that getting the stable os is the best bet, and that i'm being too cheap. i guess that's the next step then, huh?

IP over Firewire and ethernet at the same time?

Is it possible to use both IP over Firewire and ethernet at the same time?
I want to use my TB hard drive attached to one Mac via Firewire 800 to backup another Mac also attached to the same drive via Firewire 800. I can only mount the drive on one machine at a time so I need to share it out to the other Mac. It works great if I set it up to do strait IP over Firewire, with static IPs, but that means I can't connect to the internet because my ethernet connection on both machines becomes the secondary connection method. Similarly, if ethernet is primary then I can't connect via Firewire. Is there a way to set it up so the Macs will know which method to use depending on the IP address?
I am using 10.5.1 on both machines.
G5, 1.8 GHz, 15.GB RAM
MBP, 2.4 GHz, 4GB RAM
Thanks!

Certainly.
In the network control panel I set Built-in FireWire to the top of the service order list, followed by Built-in Ethernet.
Next, I set Built-in FireWire to Configure Manually with the address 192.168.1.xxx and the Subnet Mask to 255.255.255.xxx, making sure the Subnet Mask is set the same on both machines and that the IP address is different on both machines and different from the Built-in Ethernet addresses.
I applied the settings, turned on Sharing on both machines, then mounted whatever shared drives I needed by connecting to the other machine using the FireWire IP address.
Now I am able to share drives using FireWire 800 - which works great when used with Time Machine - and still use my normal ethernet to surf, etc..

I want to open a folder in a separate window by clicking on it. For some reason when I click on a folder it just replaces the one I was just in. I want them both to be open at the same time without having to go through several steps.

I want to open a folder in a separate window by clicking on it. For some reason when I click on a folder it just replaces the one I was just in. I want them both to be open at the same time without having to go through several steps. Old apple operating systems made it easy to have several folders open at one time.

Eric, thanks that works but seems like an extra added step also to do it that way. I've got to move and organize a ton of files and I'm looking for a easy way to get this done. I could also open the folder into a separate tab and then drag the tab out so it becomes an open window but thats a lot of fussing around also with extra steps. Not sure why these newer operating system seems more confusing and less user friendly than what they used to. In the past I could just click on any folder and it would open in a separate window making it really easy to copy or move files from one place to the other just by simply dragging them from one window to the other. Seems like I'm going through several extra steps now to do a simple task.

Can we use Badi BBP_SOURCING_BADI and BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS at the same time

Hi everyone,
We need you help. We are working in SRM 7 and ECC 6 EhP 4. We have a doubt. Can we use badis BBP_SOURCING_BADI and BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS at the same time in a classic scenario?
We want to create the contract in ECC, and then we want to return the SC in SoCo in order to create the PO with the SC and the contract.
We activate both, but the SC is not returned in SoCo.
Thanks,
Ivá

Hi Ivan
You can use both badi to change srm standard behavior.
but one shopping cart item and it can have only one follow on document either Contract or Purchase order.
i presumed that you want to use same sc for two purposes to create both SC and PO but it is not possible.
for example
shopping cart item has follow on document created as a contract But you need to create a another shopping cart to create a Purchase order w.r.t that contract .
Once follow on documents are created sourcing flag will be removed .- rule
BBP_SOURCING_BADI - you can write your custom logic and make way to cockpit .
BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS - Determine your logical system.
