When do I need to add an entry in the "back to my mac" area?

Documentation and help is just too terse in this area.
When do I actually have to make an entry into the "Back to My Mac" list, and what does it actually do?
What is the purpose of multiple entries?
I have a remote family member that can already get to their disk shares, even though there is no entry for that MobileMe/iCloud account in my AirPort Extreme.
On the flip side, they cannot get to the disk shares I actually want them to see, which are on a different computer.
Need more concrete info!
Thanks!

When do I actually have to make an entry into the "Back to My Mac" list, and what does it actually do?
You would make entries in the Back to My Mac field if you want to be able to access your AirPort base station or an attached AirPort Disk from a remote location.
Back to My Mac (BTMM) requires both an Apple ID and an iCloud account from Apple.
To get an idea on how to use BTMM to gain access to an AirPort Disk remotely please check out the following AirPort User Tip. Note the section specifically on BTMM.
What is the purpose of multiple entries?
It allows you to configure the AirPort to be accessed from multiple iCloud accounts.

    Hi Kiran,
    You can directly add days to the date.
    Eg:
    DATA date LIKE sy-datum.
    DATA days TYPE i.
    date = sy-datum.
    days = 100.
    date = date + days.
    WRITE date.

  • I need to add check whether 21 fields of a internal table are empty or not.

    Hello,
    I need to add check whether 21 fields of a internal table are empty or not.How can we write a code for the same wand what would be the correct syntax for it.
    I tried entering all the fields in the IF loop with AND condition but its giving syntax error.Perhaps this is because the lenght of the IF condition would be more than the allowed one.

    Hi,

  • TS2529 I had backed-up my iPhone and when I try to restore it it says that the back-up is corrupt or the iPhone is not compatible. I had a bunch of pictures that I need from that restore. Is there any way to get them back? I did the back-up to my Macbook

    I had backed-up my iPhone and when I try to restore it it says that the back-up is corrupt or the iPhone is not compatible. I had a bunch of pictures that I need from that restore. Is there any way to get them back? I did the back-up to my Macbook

    If the backup is corrupt, there is nothing that can be done.
    For what reason did you choose to not copy the pictures off the device to a computer prior to attemping an update or whatever caused the need to restore?  iPhones are not intended as sole storage of any media.

  • Need to add a link to the masthead area of the Portal

    Hi
    I need to add a link to the masthead area of the portal. That link needs to be able to print the content of the current page.
    Ihave downloaded the com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead into the NWDS.
    Can anybody please let me know where exactly to modify the code.
    i am guessing i may need to use window.print() to print the page.
    Thanks
    Sharath
    Thanks
    Sharath

    Step 1: Adding new link in the masthead
    1. Rename the par file to your own namespace and import the PAR using eclipse
    2. To add your link - modify HeaderiView.jsp appropriately
    3. Build the PAR and export using Eclipse
    Step 2: Create an iView
    1. Content Administrator -> Portal Content -> Select the folder in which you need to create the masthead iView. Right click on the selected folder and "Select New From PAR" -> iView
    2. Select the PAR file name created by you in Step 1 a
    3. Choose "default" in Portal Component Selection
    4. Provide the properties for the iView and save
    Step 3: Modify Portal Masthead
    1. Add the iView created in Step 2 to the Framework Page of your application
    2. Remove the existing Masthead iView from the framework page and add iView created in Step 2 in the framework page.
    3. Note that the position should be the same where the previous masthead is removed.
    Logoff and logon with the user who is assigned the framework page - you should be able to see the new masthead with links
    Incase you are changing the default framework page and default masthead ensure that you have a backup so that you can revert.

  • How do I add an entry to the auto correct spell check dictionary?

    How do I add an entry to the auto-correct dictionary for spell check?

    The suggestion from Encrypted11 is for adding a keyboard shortcut, if that is what you want to do. If you want to add a custom word to the keyboard dictionary ....
    The iPad Dictionary
    The iPad has a dictionary built in. As you type, it compares what you've typed against the words in that dictionary. If it finds a partial match, it displays a suggestion just beneath what you have typed.
    If you accept the suggestion by tapping the Space or full stop, great.
    If you allow the 'mistake' to stand, the second time you type the same word and reject the correction, iPad adds the new word to its custom, dynamic dictionary. From now on, it will accept the new word and will even suggest it the next time you type something like it.
    That is copied from here.

    I'm creating an epk and I need to add a bio to the menu.  Can I import the text file or do I need to retype the bio somewhere?  What is the best way to proceed?

    Electronic Press Kit.
    Usually in the form of video outtakes, movie trailers, cast and crew interviews. Basically, the stuff that gets bunged onto commercial DVDs as extras or ends up on late night TV "Making Of..." shows.
    To answer the OP, you want a button on the menu that leads to a still image, or series of them, set up as a slide show. You can copy/paste the text in DVD Studio and then add formatting via the Text menu. (Highlight the text and right click to access formatting controls). Or do it in a graphics application using the appropriate video image preset.

    when I'm trying to add files to media, the program is suddenly closed by windows and says that can not find solution to this problem...

    Hello Wyodor,
    thanks for your reply on my question.
    You are wright the index file is 308 KB.
    And offcourse that I delete my files and documents is not an Iweb problem, but because my English is not that good, that I thougt I try to tell the whole story, and hope people can read trough the lines.
    Why I didn't use Iweb to upload to the server is because the server company recommanded to use file zilla. And I am a nobody with this kind of things, so I did exactly what they tell me to do.
    No, i did not make a backup of Iweb and the domain file, but reading other messages on this forum showed me that I can maybe try to make empty the cashfile (?)
    and otherwise I have bad luck and have to make my website again. Offcourse I have a lot of examples from all the pages (copied from the local map to my USB stick) and my website is aprox. 15 Mb, (not so big) so it will cost me a few nigths.
    But I'm still hoping on a miracle :-)
    greetings Lasource

  • I SCREWD UP AND SHUT DOWN MY MAC WHEN IT WAS IN THE PRIVLEDGES STAGE BECAUSE MY PLUG-INS FOR AFTER EFFECTS WASNT WORKING, WHEN I SHUT IT DOWN AND TRIED TO START IT BACK UP, MY MAC KEPT RESTARTING, TEST-RAN-ERROR..4MOT/1/40000003:HDD-14444? WAT IS THIS?

    I SCREWD UP AND SHUT DOWN MY MAC WHEN IT WAS IN THE PRIVLEDGES STAGE BECAUSE MY PLUG-INS FOR AFTER EFFECTS WASNT WORKING, WHEN I SHUT IT DOWN AND TRIED TO START IT BACK UP, MY MAC KEPT RESTARTING, TEST-RAN-ERROR..4MOT/1/40000003:HDD-14444? WAT IS THIS? WAT DO I DO TO GET MY MAC BACK RUNNING

    I believe you've posted this multiple times. Once is all that's needed. Also, please don't use all caps. Aside from the fact it means you're shouting it's also harder to read than mixed case.
    The error means a bad fan motor or the HDD has failed. In your case it's the latter.  You can try the following:
    Drive Preparation
    1.  Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. 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.
    4. 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.
    5. 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.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Complete the OS X installation.

  • I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago avaiable.  Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore which i assume will literally delete any new contacts added...?

    I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I recently sold my macbook air and also my mac book pro, so have no recent backups avaiable.  I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago available on an external hdd as a time machine backup.  Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore?  The reason i wish to do this is because in the update i didnt lose any messages, so all of the people i have met and networked with since that last update those many months ago, i have in my messages listings.  They are all unidentified numbers at present but over time i will be able to work through the messages and based on the conversation recall who each was with.  Also, yesterday, some two weeks after the update had left my contacts list entirely empty... a vast majority just reappeard, though all of them are without any phone numbers, all just emails or facebook contacts.  This is the work of facebook not mac/ios6 isnt it...?  Any help here would be greatly apprecaited.  I am about 2 days from flying to canada and having those contacts would make life a lot easier.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.
