What happened to my screensavers?
Mid 2010 17" MacBook Pro, upgraded to 10.7.1. I was using the Apple Hot News screensaver since day one, but today I noticed it came up as Computer Name. I went to System Preferences to set it back, and all the screensavers are gone except Computer Name and Flurry. Does anyone have an idea as to what happened to them, and how I can recover them?
Many thanks in advance!
Okay, final update. In case anyone else runs into this: I ran a disk permissions repair, powered down, and then brought the system back up and the screen saver choices have been restored.
Hope that helps someone.

With my taking any action, my folders and files no longer appear under documents (under Places). Now a folder titled Documents has appeared on my desktop with all my files and folders. What happened?What happened?
The way I moved from 10.3.9 to 10.5.8 was to use "ditto -rsrc" and copy the user homes and the data share to an external firewire drive. Then did the same in reverse.
I found the key to data and share permissions to make sure that the users had the same UID in Leopard that they had in Panther.
You can then use "sudo rm -rf" to remove any folder from the relocated homes that you want. Remember if you do choose to remove "~/Library" from each users relocated home, you will be removing any iCal calendars, login.keychains, browser bookmarks, custom screensavers and wallpapers, etc.
Users don't really care if they can login and do any work. But there will be much wailing, gnashing of the teeth, and anxiety, if they lose their bookmarks and wallpaper. -
While I was repairing my mac...what happened to Downloads?
Hi all, so where to begin? Long story short, during some renovation work to my home, I had to switch my mac off and pack it away. 6 weeks later, unpacked it, set it up, switched it on and...well not sure what happened. It booted, then rebooted and looked like it did when I first bought it, then it rebooted again and I was confronted with a grey screen with a folder and question mark flinging itself about! Tried all the usual, nothing would get it to boot, so I blitzed an external hard drive, installed Snow Leopard on it and managed to get going. Ran disk utility on the internal drive and it said the disk had errors, couldn't be repaired, please back up and format. Now, I had moved a lot of stuff previously onto my laptop, just for storage, so, after a few stif drinks, I took the plunge and erased the hard drive, re-installed Snow Leopard and to my surprise, here we are. So, hint number one, always make sure you have a back up somewhere, because I didn't have everything, and am now on the hunt for all my stuff.
Now, it appears that the downloads section of Support, which I used a lot, is now the Apps Store. I had downloaded loads of lovely email stationary via Downloads, along with silly effects for Photo Booth, effects for iChat...and now they are all gone and I haven't a clue where to find them!
Anyone got any clues? Had also downloaded some fantastic screensavers with clocks in wonderful backgrounds...all gone
Oh and hint nomber two, always make sure you have a back up somewhere
So basically I'm wanting to know where to find all the email stationary, screensavers etc.
Also wanting to make the point about backing up everything.
And also, if your Mac throws a hissy fit, I really recommend having an external drive, if you can install your OS onto it and get your mac going, it is a big big help!Am running OS X 10.6.8
Haven't done the hardware test as yet, have just managed to get the mac up nd running again.
Am more looking for where to download my email stationary, but will have to do the test, thanks for reminding me -
What happens on iCloud (ex. contacts) when multiple family members use the same Apple ID?
What happens on iCloud when multiple family members use the same Apple ID? For example if we all choose to use iCloud for contacts, are they all merged together? We use the same Apple ID so we can use find my iPhone to keep track of the whole family.
Of course if you are both connected to the same iCloud account you have the same contacts - what did you expect?. The contacts live on the server and are read from there by the devices; so as you've both managed to sync your contacts up to iCloud they are now inextricably mixed. You can only delete your contacts by deleting individual ones, and doing that will delete them from your phone as well.
You can only unravel this by
1. In the iCloud contacts page at http://icloud.com, select all the contacts, click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Export vCard'.
2. Sign out of System Preferences>iCloud
3. Create a new Apple ID and open a new iCloud account with it for your own use.
4. Import the vCard back into the iCloud contacts page.
5. Go to http://icloud.com and sign in with the original ID. This is now his ID. Work through the contacts individually deleting the ones you don't want him to have. When done sign out and advise him to change his password.
6. Go to the new iCloud account and delete his contacts individually.
Of course if you have also been syncing calendars and using the same email address there are problems with doing this. -
What happens to the open item in bsid table when it is cleared
hi experts,
i have a doubt about open and cleared items of accounting documents. as we know open items of customers are stored in bsid and cleared ones in bsad. For suupose, an open item is closed ina particular period then what happened to the entry in bsid and bsad table. an entry regarding is stored in bsad (cleared),and what happens to the entry in bsid, still it will be there or removed from it.Hi,
When ever we clear the document(Complete payment) that document will be moved to BSAD table. Other wise it will remain in BSID.
If u are making partial payment then all the partial payment documents along with original document will be stored in BSID till u made the complete payment for that invoice.
Assumption is u have to give all partial payment documents made for particular invoice item while u are making complete payment in F-28 transaction. So that these partail payment documents will also be cleared while making complete payment and moved to BSAD table.
This trasaction can be used for both partial and complete payments.
Irrespective of complete or partial payments made all the documents will remain stored in BKPF and BSEG tables.
BSID and BSAD are index tables to address performance issues with BKPF and BSEG tables.
So all open and cleared documents will be there in BKPF and BSEG tables.
All cleared documents will be there in BSAD table.
Alll open documents will be there in BSID table.
Hope it is clear.
Thanks,
Vinod. -

Current State:
• I have a customer running CUCM 6.1 and UCCX 7.01SR5. Currently their CUCM is *NOT* LDAP integrated and using local accounts only. UCCX is AXL integrated to CUCM as usual and is pulling users from CUCM and using CUCM for login validation for CAD.
• The local user accounts in CUCM currently match the naming format in active directory (John Smith in CUCM is jsmith and John Smith is jsmith in AD)
Goal:
• Upgrade software versions and migrate to new hardware for UCCX
• LDAP integrate the CUCM users
Desired Future State and Proposed Upgrade Method
Using the UCCX Pre Upgrade Tool (PUT), backup the current UCCX 7.01 server.
Then during a weekend maintenance window……
• Upgrade the CUCM cluster from 6.1 to 8.0 in 2 step process
• Integrate the CUCM cluster to corporate active directory (LDAP) - sync the same users that were present before, associate with physical phones, select the same ACD/UCCX line under the users settings as before
• Then build UCCX 8.0 server on new hardware and stop at the initial setup stage
• Restore the data from the UCCX PUT tool
• Continue setup per documentation
At this point does UCCX see these agents as the same as they were before?
Is the historical reporting data the same with regards to agent John Smith (local CUCM user) from last week and agent John Smith (LDAP imported CUCM user) from this week ?
I have the feeling that UCCX will see the agents as different almost as if there is a unique identifier that's used in addition to the simple user name.
We can simplify this question along these lines
Starting at the beginning with CUCM 6.1 (local users) and UCCX 7.01. Let's say the customer decided to LDAP integrate the CUCM users and not upgrade any software.
If I follow the same steps with re-associating the users to devices and selecting the ACD/UCCX extension, what happens?
I would guess that UCCX would see all the users it knew about get deleted (making them inactive agents) and the see a whole group of new agents get created.
What would historical reporting show in this case? A set of old agents and a set of new agents treated differently?
Has anyone run into this before?
Is my goal possible while keeping the agent configuration and HR data as it was before?I was doing some more research looking at the DB schema for UCCX 8.
Looking at the Resource table in UCCX, it looks like there is primary key that represents each user.
My question, is this key replicated from CUCM or created locally when the user is imported into UCCX?
How does UCCX determine if user account jsmith in CUCM, when it’s a local account, is different than user account jsmith in CUCM that is LDAP imported?
Would it be possible (with TAC's help most likely) to edit this field back to the previous values so that AQM and historical reporting would think the user accounts are the same?
Database table name: Resource
The Unified CCX system creates a new record in the Resource table when the Unified CCX system retrieves agent information from the Unified CM.
A Resource record contains information about the resource (agent). One such record exists for each active and inactive resource. When a resource is deleted, the old record is flagged as inactive; when a resource is updated, a new record is created and the old one is flagged as inactive. -
New Data in R/3 Enterprise - ABAP Proxies - XI what happen?
Hi,
i have a theoretical question:
if i use R/3 Enterprise on WAS and put new Data in the R/3 System and transport them to XI with ABAP Proxies. What happens in the systems?
How do the R/3 System put new data in the proxy runtime and send them to xi?
I want to unterstand how the transport from new data in a R/3 System with ABAP Proxies comes to the XI Integration Server.Hi Marcel,
>>>>>How do the R/3 System put new data in the proxy runtime and send them to xi?
all you need to do in r3 is to fill tables of a generated structure
and execute one method of a generated class (send....)
then R3 will connect over HTTP to XI and send the data from your structures
structures and class in R3 is being generated automatically via TCODE SPROXY

What happened to my entire 3000+ songs in my library I used to see when I opened iTunes? I only see the most recently purchased. How do I get them back? I don't have an I phone to play they on, only a droid.
Pammie49Hi Sarah,
It sounds like the songs have either not yet synced over to the iPhone, or something went wrong when attempting to sync to the iPhone. My recommendation is to uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox.
Once you have done that, recheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPhone, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.
If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following articles:

Help! I just installed the latest update on my IPhone 4 and now I can't access my podcasts. When I hit the podcast I on, the screen goes blank for a second and then opens to the home screen with all my icons. What happened?
Try a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously you see the Apple logo and then release.

When using Iphoto to import photo from existing folder to iphoto, what happens if:
1. I delete that photo in iphoto? will the original file in the folder be deleted too ?
2. when importing, does the hard disk store 2 versions of the photo, hence occupying additional space in the harddisk?1 - no -- iPhoto only manages fiel within the iPhoto library - it does not ever do anything with files outside the library
2 - No idea what you are asking - by default (and strongly recommended) iPhoto copies the original to the iPhoto library and you delete the source file outside the iPhoto library - iPhoto alwasy has at least two versions of every photo and some times three - it always have the original, a thumbnail and once a photo is modified a preview - this is not optional - if it is not what you want then iPhoto is not the correct progrtam to be using for phopto management

What happens to the mail in my iMac after I delete it from my iPhone? Will it be deleted from my computer as well?
If they are both using the same iCloud ID (assuming you are running your mail from iCloud), then yes, the email will disappear from your Mac after you delete it from your phone and after your phone sycs with iCloud and your Mac syncs with iCloud.
I use a windows phone, but it works the same. -
I finished adding my transtions to my timeline. I was having crashing issues so I shut down everything before I rendered the project and now it tells me that the project is unreadable or the file is too new for this version of final cut. What Happened?
What Happened?
No way for us to know. But if your system was crashing, there definitely was a problem. The FCE error message you got normally indicates the FCE project file has been corrupted. This probably happened due to whatever caused your system to crash & shutting down the system.
First, make sure your system is running correctly. Then, use the Finder to navigate to /users/yourusername/Documents/Final Cut Express Documents/Autosave Vault and find the most recent backup copy of your FCE project file. Copy the file to your Final Cut Express Documents folder (copy the file, don't just move it). Then double-click the copy to open it in FCE. It should open ok, but will probably not have your most recent edits (transitions). You may have to rebuild the transitions, but at least you will be back in action.
