Using ccBPM to make XI return a sync message request as the response

Dear all,
I have a scenario where I need to return a sync message request back as the resonse. This is needed to test an non-SAP interface.
I'm pretty shure I can use the ccBPM to do this, but I can't get it to work. Any pointers on how to set this up would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Yes that is tru that you can use ccBPM.
For reference you can use these 2 blogs to go ahead with your work.

Using two iPhones with iTunes - erase and sync message

Me and my fiancée both have an iPhone 4. I connect to iTunes regularly and it does so automatically when I tether my phone to the lap top for Internet. We each have seperate Apple accounts. When I connected hers yesterday to add some music I got an 'erase and sync' message saying that her phone was linked to another iTunes library. We only have one lap top and so have only ever had the phones connected to that one iTunes on it. If I erase and sync will that delete all her apps, pictures etc And replace with the ones I have on my phone that have backed up to iTunes. We want to have different apps and photos.
With our iPods we set them to manual and there's no problem, but with the iPhone there is.
I don't think it matters but I'm on ios5 and she is on ios4, both are iPhone 4.

No, I hadn't thought of that. I would have had my phone plugged in before and when I plugged her phone in I wasn't prompted for a password. So no, she wouldn't have been signed in.
So, if I sign out of my account and sign in to hers, I shouldn't get this problem of being prompted to erase and sync?

Firefox will not install on my laptop using windows 7. I keep getting a message saying that the installation was interrupted

Oh my god, thank you so much! Ive been working on this for hours and with your help it was done in five minutes. Thanks again!

I only have an iPhone sync? Why would Mozilla drop the ball and not provide a smartphone app for the biggest cellphone maker... Syncing is way behind the market

''locked as a duplicate of - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/931082''
I cannot believe your letting the millions of smartphone users of market share leader in cellphones (Apple), settle for a sync version... Which is lame
Why won't you provide a full iPhone app of Firefox ... Is this yet another Apple/ vs Adobe thing?
Get it together! You did it for Android... Do it for IPhone! Come on!!!

Your earlier question along the same lines is here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/931082

Turning off logging for failed sync messages too

HI,
I was looking if we can turn off the looging of sync messages even if the message has failed
if someone knows how to do that please let me knwo.
Regards
Nikhil

Hi, Nikhil,
By default the logging / saving up of Synch messages in the Database of XI is turned off. This is done to save memory space. But, if needed they can be truned on and the parameter LOGGING_SYNC is used for that.
Likewise Trace_Level is used to set the trace level of your messages in MONI. If tace_level is 3 all steps are logged in MONI and this fills up the DB drastically. it should be used only for debugging purposes to understand the error / issue better.
Trace_LEVEL should be set to 1 on a production system to make sure only limited logging of messages / steps happens in MONI.

LV: Sending "sync message" for getting synchronous CAN acquistion

Hello @ all
First of all: My knowledge about the CAN bus in general is not so good, so excuse a possible unprecise problem description.
My task is to read out CAN messages of devices. This works fine for devices that send their messages "stand-alone" with a fixed repetition rate (here: 100Hz).
But other devices do not send their messages with such a repetition rate. They send their message only until they come in an overflow (here: after 150ms). I´ve heard that I have to send a "sync message" to the devices to get their message. That means, that I have to send the sync message with 100 Hz to get the 100 Hz acquistion.
My question: How should I have to program such a bidirectional CAN transfer? Of course, I can send one sync message and read the answer. But what to do when I want to read for example 10000 messages? I don´t want to trigger it by software due to the timer accuracy.
Do I just have to start the "CAN read.vi" and the "CAN write.vi" parallel? Or is there any possibility to start the write.vi and the read.vi at a fixed time, to get both functions parallel?
Tanks so far.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi LittleJoe198,
I'm glad you got it running.
You are right about the Transmit Receive same port example, timing is done in software using the wait function.
But the other example (CAN Transmit - periodic) sends the data periodically using hardware timing - specified by the control "Period (ms)". In this case a CAN object is used. Your card supports CAN Objects, so it is very easy to use hardware timing. Take a closer look at your CAN Hardware and Software Manual page 10-19 ff.
"Transmit Data by Call, Receive by Call Using Remote
Period specifies a minimum interval between subsequent
transmissions. Even if ncWriteObj.vi is called very frequently,
frames are transmitted on the network at a rate no more than
Period. "
Let me know if you have further questions using CAN Objects.

I have a used mac computer. I want to sync and update my iphone. Currently itunes tells me that my iphone is connected to a different itunes account. How do I make itunes sync and update my phone without deleting all the current information on my phone?

I have a used mac computer. I want to sync and update my iphone. Currently itunes tells me that my iphone is connected to a different itunes account and will sync, but delete everything from my phone. How do I make itunes sync and update my phone without deleting all the current information on my phone?

Iphone will sync with one and only one cpomptuer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer. This is the design of the iphone.
It will erase the content when you sync.
Why not update from the comptuer with which you normally sync?

I have an old iphone 3 32gb and don't use it to make calls as I have a 4s but would like to use the 3 for music any suggestions as to how I can sync two phones with I tunes

Plug the device into the computer.
Select the content desired to sync.
Sync.

I had to return my first Ipad2, and now the new won't connect to itunes. I verified I had the latest itunes, used the new cable and verified the port worked by syncing with my ipod, I reloaded 10.2.2 and restarted my PC. Still won't work - thoughts?

Application fault for Sync Send holds up the ccBPM queues

Hello Experts,
I have the following scenario which I have realized using a ccBPM in SAP PI 7.31.
I receive a nomination idoc from ECC from which I create a nomination request to be sent in Sync manner to a web service. The response received from the web service is sent through another idoc, back to ECC. In case of any failure during this, an ALEAUD idoc is sent back to ECC to convey the failure. This web service returns an application fault in case any data in the request is improper and there is no fault message in the WSDL for the web service.
I have used a ccBPM to receive the nomination idoc from ECC, transform it to web service request and send it using a Sync Send step. In case an application fault occurs, the SOAP receiver channel shows the error as application fault and my Sync Send step does not receive the expected response. However, a SOAP message with envelope is received from the web service which leads to the BPM queue land in error 'Permanent error in BPE inbound processing'.
However, in case of the application fault I want to make the Sync Send step trigger an exception so that the ALEAUD idoc is sent back to ECC system.
Any thoughts on how i can achieve this?
Thanks in adv.

My wife and I both have the iphone and we use my macbook pro with iTunes to sync our ipods. When I do something on my iPhone it shows on hers. How do I set up her a seperate iTunes acct on my mac so she can operate independent of me?

My wife and I both have the iphone and we use my macbook pro with iTunes to sync our ipods. When I do something on my iPhone it shows on hers. How do I set up her a seperate iTunes acct on my mac so she can operate independent of me?

There's info here on setting up separate libraries and user accounts. You won't have to reload (or re-import) all the music, just copy it.
The reason I suggest separate accounts on the Mac is because if you have the two libraries under the same user account, iTunes will also open the last library that was open in that account, and you'll always have to be mindful of which library that is. If you open iTunes and find it's not your library, you'll have quit, relaunch holding the option key and select the other library.
No, you won't have to log in and out of the Mac. (If I'm understanding your question here.) Multiple accounts can be logged in at the same time. And with fast user switching, you can toggle between user accounts.
I'll admit that maintaining the two libraries gets a little tricky, because if you share all the same music, you'll have to add it to one and update the other. (That won't happen automatically.) But I think Home Sharing makes this much easier to do.
Hope that helps!

HT201372 used this to make a bootable copy for a new hard drive installation. copied the install find but gave error code 110 when making the disk bootable.. Any help in what this code is

Used createinstallmedis to make a copy of the Mavericks app for use in a new hard drive install.. Copied find but gave error code 110 and failed to make the flash drive bootable.. Any help in what errror code means?

Did you partition and format the flash drive first? See the following:
Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list.
Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
Make your own Mavericks flash drive installer using the Mavericks tool:
Mavericks has its own built-in installer maker you use via the Terminal:
You will need a freshly partitioned and formatted USB flash drive with at least 8GBs. Leave the name of the flash drive at the system default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy this command line after the prompt in the Terminal's window:
sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction
Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed to the screen so be careful to enter it correctly. Press RETURN, again.
Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time.

Use Palm Desktop 4.1.4 to sync Palm Vx to Clie

I apologize in advance if this is the wrong group/forum. It seems to fit better than Software for the mobile PDA device. If I am wrong, I am open to suggestions as to a more appropriate forum.
I ran into the wonky digitizer problem that seems to afflict Palms, for which there are plenty of short-term software fixes, but for which the long term fix is to reseat the digitizer cable:
http://www.directfix.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=GHT&Category_Code=_P5TAKE
The procedure looks positively barbaric. Frankly, it looks like the Palm Vx was not designed for ease of home tinkering. I decided that it was time to change PDAs (or move to a smartphone -- however, data plans in my 'hood are a gouger). Fortunately, I was able to inherit a retired Clie PEG-T665C from a colleague. It is much bigger than the Vx, but seemed much more straightforward to disassemble for the purposes of reseating the cable; for one thing, it seems to have a screw holding it together rather than glue all the way around. Another impetus to move away from Vx to Clie is that the graffiti area of the Vx is getting very scuffed, and stylus motions are not registering well at all. Not good for the blood pressure.
The only unknown was the migration of data from Vx to the Clie. This "problem" was simplified by the fact that my usage of the Vx was extremely simple: Datebook, Addressbook, and Memopad. Absolutely nothing more. For my purposes, the Clie offers no feature advantages, so my switch is only for the ease of reseating the digitizer cable (if it is ever needed), and a more responsive graffiti area. Since I wasn't using any of the Clie-specific features, I crossed my fingers and hoped that I didn't need to track down Palm Desktop for the Clie; it doesn't seem to be easy to locate, and I don't want to explore the wonderful world of having two Palm Desktop apps on my PC.
Instead, I put the Clie in its cradle, connected it to the USB, and sync'd (sunk?) it to Desktop 4.1.4 that I was using for the Vx. I noted that the Vx differed in that its cradle used the serial port, though it is quite possible that this not a significant difference. In sycing the Clie, I was asked by Palm Desktop to create a 2nd user, which I was sure to name differently from the Vx user; the Clie manual said that having two devices with the same name was a recipe for unpredictable results. After creating 2nd user, I copied the *.dat and *.bak files for Addressbook, Datebook, and Memopad from the Vx user directory to the Clie user directory. (I had to be logged into Palm Desktop as the Vx user for this to work). This seemed to migrate the Vx entries to the Clie user, and sync'ing caused the entries to transfer to the Clie itself.
The only hiccup is that the first time sync'ing after copying the files yielded error messages that not all files got copied, though I'm not sure if that was from the Clie to the Clie user account on Palm Desktop, or vice-versa. The 2nd time I sunk, I didn't get the error messages. However, if there were a few dropped records, I probably wouldn't notice it from eyeballing the PDA. So I'm not sure how confident I should be. My uncertainly gives rise to three questions.
1. Is there any reason why I should worry about using generic Palm Desktop with the Clie, rather than *the* "Palm Desktop for the Clie" (i.e. Sony's Palm Desktop made specifically for the Clie)?
2. What is an efficient way to check that all records match between the Clie and the Vx?
3. Since I am unsure how much to trust the fidelity of the data on the Clie (with respect to the Vx), I would like to use both for some duraton. Is there a way to use one Palm Desktop account for both devices without incurring the risk of "unpredicitable outcomes" that the Clie manual warns about? Using one account sure beats copying files between the two accounts. Copying files between two independent accounts also creates the real risk of having changes occur on both accounts -- I'm not sure how I'd reconcile that (if I was lucky enough to even notice that it happened).
I should also add that both the Vx and the Clie had Palm OS 4.1, though I'm not sure that makes any difference in easing migration and synchronization on the PC side of things.
Post relates to: Palm Vx

Actually, I just used unix commands to compare addressbook and memopad csv files from the Palm Desktop accounts for the Vx and the Clie. This convinces me that addressbook and memopad got properly migrated from Vx to Clie. Unfortunately, exporting to csv is not an option for the datebook app, and the dba files contain differences in the nontext characters between the Vx and the Clie. Is there a way to compare datebooks?
Thanks.
