What ODBC driver to use in order access Filemaker Pro from Excel

Hi
I run Filemaker Pro 11 and Excel on my Mac OSX 10.5.
I want to access my Filemaker database directly from Excel (to use the data in Pivot tables without first having to export the data from Filemaker). What ODBC driver should I use?

Bruce, I have an indexed, 5 Billion record MS-Access Jet (Red) 4.x format database file system (no table linking), 1 table only, each MDB file acting as a partial table, not a database. This database contains 500 x 2-GIG files, each file with 10
million rows - text compression/encryption turned on. I created this 1 Terabyte file system (empty) using ODBC Administrator which came installed on my Windows 7 Home Premium Laptop (Factory installed, no Service Packs). I used ODBC/SQL then
to create the tables/indexes within the empty MDB files.   I have a MEMO data type in my table too with text as long as 528 characters.    I have used MIMEbase64 encoding too, so that the data is not humanly readable neither via SQL
nor by opening an MDB file in WordPad.   I do the decoding during SQL processing.
In my FILE DSN, I bumped Threads property to 510 from default 3, so that I could run 510 simultaneous/concurrent SQL processes on my Laptop, to produce reliable report output.
You might consider this little setup, if nothing else works, as long as the PCs have either Windows XP or 7 installed.   MS-Access ODBC driver is already installed for Jt 4.x format, and you can compact/repair the 4.x files using ODBC Administrator,
or get the GUI/commandline utility JetComp.exe to do it, which is freely distributable.
I know this is not likely your answer, but it is a good fall back perhaps for someone.

What cable should be used to connect a macbook pro, 13 inch, early 2011 model to an external projector so the project displays the image on the computer screen?

You will need a cable or adapter with a minidisplay connection for the MBP. That will be inserted in the Thunderbolt port. The other end is dependent upon the connections of the projector which you have not listed.

In the US I have not seen a state that allows an individual to claim tax exemption...that is reserved for authorized institutions like public school systems. Only certain states do not have no-sales tax laws. When I lived in France, to be free from VAT one had to be a non-citizen and would be reimbursed for goods that were shipped out of the country upon exiting the country...not while still residing there. That was pretty typical of other European countries at the time, Pre-EU days, that is.

Accessing a jsp from excel

Hi,
I have a jsp page in my weblogic server(version 9.2). It simply sets a session variable when the user visits the page for the first time. Now i am trying to access this jsp from a excel file(I am providing the URL of the page as a hyperlink). But the page is getting processed twice.
For example in my jsp I have the following code:
<%
System.out.println("Initially "+session.getAttribute("var"));
session.setAttribute("var","JAVA");
System.out.println("After setting"+session.getAttribute("var"));
%>
When I access this page from excel it is printing the following in console:
Initially null
After settingJAVA
Initially null
After settingJAVA
As you can see the statements are getting printed twice.
Can any one explain the reason for such a behaviour?

External Hard Drive Issues using WD Passport with MacBook Pro

I am unable to view my external hard drive (WD Passport 160gb external hard drive model # wd1600me-01) with my MacBook Pro. I already tried using the Utility Disk application by utilzing the repair function and mounting it. Please help. Any Suggestions?

Im familiar with that HD, I have one currently disassembled for just the bare HD...., it has a removable SATA bridge, if the HD wont spin up but the light comes on, on the HD, then the SATA bridge is bad.
If it appears in disk utility and the light comes on BUT the HD doesn't spin up, then either the SATA bridge is dead, or the HD is dead (least likely).
Youd have to crack open the HD, remove the SATA bridge cart thats plugged into the HD and put the HD into an enclosure or a HD dock to get the data
those external HD use a 50 cent SATA bridge famous for failing. The curse of all the good HD externals is the junk 3rd party SATA bridges attached to them that crash and burn.
It doesn't matter it was used once and stored away for 5 years,.....HD lose their ferromagnetic properties at about 20-40% at 4-6 years.
And if stored in a hot place, a LOT more.

What is the procedure to reinstall Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro from the CS4 Design Premium discs?

I have uninstalled Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro from my hard drive but I'm not sure which disc to use to reinstall. The CS4 discs are marked "Application 1," "Application 2," "Content," and "Learning Adobe Creative Suite 4." I'm on a three year old Imac running Mac OSX 10.6.8.

Hi dlavin999,
The disk 2 usually is meant for Acrobat 9. You can insert the disc and check for yourself.

What USB drive to use to extend TC?

Hi, I have a first generation Time Capsule with the 500GB hard drive. I would like to plug an external USB hard drive of 500GB or larger into the TC USB port to extend the capacity of the TC. I don't necessarily need to see or access it as a separate drive; if the TC will use it for backups just like the internal drive, that will be fine. Of course I would like to copy files to and fro as well. Is anyone doing this successfully on an OS X 10.6.x system? If so, please tell me what model of USB drive you are using and I'll go buy one right now. Thanks.

Unfortunately, you cannot use an external USB drive to "increase" the overall drive size for Time Machine Backups. You can; however, use either the internal or external drive as TM destinations.

What screw driver is used to unscrew MacBook Pro screws

I just got a new 13" MacBook Pro with all standard parts. I'm a mobile DJ and will eventually need more hard drive space and RAM. I know how to upgrade both and found upgrades for it, but I would like to have the proper tools to do this. I need the tools to remove the back panel, and the screws from the hard drive and need to know what those tools are and the sizes. A link would be very helpful.

They are very reliable. I have used many of their products including memory, hard drives, SSDs, and toolkits. I have no complaints.
As far as memory is concerned, the brand is not very important as an indicator of quality. Most all sources are reliable especially if they are sold as Mac memory. In addition to OWC, I have relied on DataMem for my memory.

I use Gmail but I'm more familiar with Outlook format. If I use Outlook it moves my messages to the C drive. I need to access all messages from other computers.

--I have problems with the way G-mail works for typing messages. I am accustomed to using Outlook at work and when I type in G-mail, sometimes the message is sent before I finish due to me using the enter and tab buttons.
--I tried using Outlook and configuring G-mail to automatically move messages to Outlook but when I do this, all messages I open are stored on the " C " drive of the computer I am using.
--Since I work offshore 28 days at a time and use at least 3 different computers to access my email account, I need a way to use Outlook but still save all messages on the net so I can access any and all messages from any of the computers I use at work and at home.
-- How can I set this up and still use my G-mail account?

hello Jim, this is a subject where we in firefox support cannot provide particular help. it's not a problem related to firefox and out of the scope of this forum. just as a general pointer: if you want your emails to be accessible in outlook and on webmail as well, you'll want to set up your account as IMAP-account, for more details and further help please contact gmail's support at https://support.google.com/mail.
thanks for your understanding!

What Hard Drive to use for back up

Dear all,
I'm using Time Machine on Lion and want to back up my MBPro without having to keep on plugging in my external drive.
I have a BT Home Hub here is the UK as my router etc and was wondering if anyone can recommend a HD that I can plug into this using Ethernet cable.
I know that I can fork out £260 for a Time Capsule but am wondering if there are any other options. I also heard rumors that TC has failed in the past ?
Cheers as always.

Western Digital 500 GB External (plug in) HD !!!

@ Steven,
Hello again and as ever I am grateful for you help.
I will do some searching for other options but I guess if Apple intended it to work with Time Capsule then I guess this will be the sensible option.
Thanks again and what a sad day for Apple. A huge loss.

Good afternoon actech
I would go with a seagate drive . There drives are warranted for 5 years and of very good quality . I my use seagate in all my computers . You can get a 1 terabit drive over at bestbuy for 120.00 dollars . I dont no if your located in the usa . But if you are you may want to buy from them . I had one fail on me and they took it back and gave me a new one . Thats one in a blue moon that will fail on you .
I would go with a seagate or western digital dirve , they are the most and bigger hard drive makers .

What format do I use for to edit with footage from Isight camera (Mpeg-4)

I've been having trouble with the rendering of clips in the timeline. I'm using 3 video tracks and all of them were recorded on my Isight camera, making all of them mpeg 4 files so when I first imported them, every time I changed one little thing on the timeline, it all had to be rendered again but it took forever. So I went to easy setup and changed the format a few times to see if any would work since I haven't had this problem before but this is the first time I'm using clips from my isight camera. Does anyone know what format to use or do I need to convert the files?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

You need to convert the media into a format that's natively editable in FCE. You can use MPEG Streamclip to do that.

What file size is used for when uploading to MobileMe from Aperture?

When I upload my photo files from Aperture (and previously from iPhoto) I routinely use the upload setting named "dowloading of optimized" files. I know that this downsizes the files for faster upload/download, but still gives a file size acceptable for great onscreen presentation and for a resulting small print of someone downloads. Can anyone tell what downsizing Aperture does in this case? For example, 50% jpeg, email sized jpeg, etc. Since Apple will kill the MobileMe galleries in June I have to switch to another photo presentation host. For upload to such a host Aperture gives choices like 100% jpeg, 50% jpeg, etc. What I want to do is end up with something similar to what I now get with the "optimized" setting. Thank you.

You will note that I referenced both programs (iPhoto & Aperture) in my original message above, and I have posted in both forums. Since both programs offer the same (at least on the surface) option of "optimized" to MobileMe galleries, one might assume that both use the same or a similar system. Lengthly testing of my own is the "best" solution only if I can not find anyone who is knowledgeable about what these programs do in the upload. It has been my sincere joy over many many years that I often find people on these forums who possess knowledge much greater than I. As to the programs changing the algorithum at any time, I doubt that since this MobileMe function will disappear in June. Seems like a strange time to make changes.
