What is the name of the folders which are your backup of Itunes library? I am recovering from a virus, have no workable desktop in Win XP, but can search and find files and folders. I would like to move these backup files to a new computer

what is the name of the folders which are the backup of Itunes library? I am recovering from a virus, have no workable desktop in Win XP, but can search and find files and folders. I would like to move these backup files to a new computer, authorize it and sync with Iphone 3Gs and Ipod 5th gen.

I second the whole iTunes folder approach.
If for some reason you have split the media folder from the library files then the media folder needs to restored to the same path it used to have while the library files can be copied into the music folder of your new profile.
If in dobut, backup up the entire Documents and Settings folder before wiping the infected drive, but be selective about what you restore as many viruses drop active components capable of reinfecting the compuer in the temp folders and internet caches. It is much easier to backup more than you need than to discover after the fact that you no longer have access to some vital project you'd been storing in a folder on the desktop.

When I installed Mountain Lion it asked the name of my computer. I was in such a hurry that I now have a typo. How can I go back and change the name of the computer?

How do I change the name of my computer?

One area that this appears is on Facebook where it lists the number of Recognized Devices. There are six devices which include iPad and iPhone. These items are grayed and you are unable to change. Also on my iphone it lists the computer name. This name is different from name of my computer. It's what I signed in as when I installed the Mountain Lion upgrade. I know I'm not doing a good job of explaining this. I have searched everywhere on my computer that I can think of and cannot locate where this is used. Any suggestions are appreciated.

What is the name of Mail's email database

What is the name of the file for the Mail's database? Is it located in the User Library?
I have many duplicates in the email database that are not in Contacts. So this must be a different database? Emails take forever to auto complete.
If I delete this file, will the application automatically rebuild it using contacts? I have over 1800 contacts.
Thanks, Ted

Ernie, I appear to have two address files. One is called AddressBook-v22.abcddb and the other AddressBook-v22.abcddb. But they are in two different folders that hold all of their associated files like metadata. In other words, two databases.
The dates on all files are recent in both folders. Are the two databases required because one if the iCloud database and the other Daylite? Why such a strange setup?
When I open Contacts, I have "All on My Mac", "Daylite -- All Contacts" and then "iCloud". Can I not configure Contacts to use only iCloud or All on My Mac? Perhaps this would speed up the search on the nearly 2,000 record for each database.
I configured the address and calendar that lives on this computer as primary and it is backed up to iCloud. Daylite accesses the iCloud integrating its data to iCloud and then back to Contacts/Calendar.
Barnie, I deleted the file MailRecents-v4.abcdmr. But the slow down continues. The problem appears to reside with the Contacts data. As I start typing a name in the email address field, it takes five to 7 seconds to list suggestions. And most of the suggestions contain exactly the same information repeated 2 to 3 times (duplicates).
I routinely dedupe the Contacts file with the dedupe function. It usually finds 50 or more.
(As a side note, I think CardDav and CalDav are works in progress. Either that, or third party applications like Daylite have not figured out how to integrate with CardDav and CalDav properly at this time.)
Any suggestions for modifying the configuration to get better performance?

What is the name of the CD drive?

I'm taking an online graduate course, and they have sent me a CD-ROM with a audio lecture and accompanying slide presentations. The preferences part of the online BlackBoard class environment prompts you to identify the cd drive on the computer to make these things work. For a PC, it would be the "d" drive, just as the internal HD is the "C" drive or floppy drive is the "A" drive, etc.
So then they say with a MAC you need to input the "name" of the cd drive. So what's the name? I have looked in the system profiler and it says nothing, I have checked the "path" of a cd mounted on the drive and is says "/volume", but this still doesn't work. Anyone know?
Fortunately, I have a backup PC that can run these things, but it would be useful to solve the problem and make it run on my Macs.

The complete path to any CD is going to depend on the name of your disc.
It is in the form of /Volumes/<cd name>
If your disk is named 'BlackBoard' (for example) then the path will be /Volumes/BlackBoard/

You can stream from a Mac via itunes selection (iPhoto events or a folder) - it has 8GB of solid state temporary storage, but quite how things are cached/flushed from here is a bit of a mystery - you cannot say designate 2GB to hold photos or prioritise photos over other material.
Even rentals seem to flush if you've watched them and they haven't expired - relative fell asleep during a rental yesterday so i suggested she watched it today and it downloaded from scratch again, and the AppleTV hadn't had anything but music playing in the interim. Silly this really. There's a post on another section where someone used 17GB of their data allowance to watch a HD movie as it kept reloading!
Yes you can stream photos from iPod/iPad using Airplay, but to be honest i don't think ATV2 offers that much over ATV1 for photos (yet anyway), and in some ways it's inferior.
ATV2 is far more responsive/uses less power etc but I'm not convinced you get anything groundbeaking unless you have a lot of guests who could use it via Airplay from their iphones (and with ipads currently without cameras, photos would have to come from somewhere else in the first place).

What are the names of the ports I have in my Macbook Pro to plug an external monitor into?

What are the names of the ports in my MacBook Pro that I can plug an external monitor into?

You have Thunderbolt or Mini DisplayPort. If you know which external display you want or you already have it, look at the ports it has got and get a Mini DisplayPort adapter for it. There are Mini DisplayPort adapters for DVI, VGA and HDMI.
Most external displays have DVI, VGA or HDMI. If you can use HDMI, use it, because it will provide much better quality. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Mini DisplayPort adapters can be used with Thunderbolt

What are the names and the parameters of the SSIS reports

what are the names and the parameters of the SSIS reports

it's necessary to know the reportname and the parameters.
I want to "combine" respectively want to navigate

please have a look at the attached picture and in particular
to the blue arrow.SSIS_ReportsNavigation
thank you for providing an answer or a hint.

to navigate from my reports to the build in reports
Those integrated reports in SSMS are not hosted in SSRS, so there is no URL available where you can navigate to.
The reports run in client side rendering mode = RDLC.
