Which OS 8.6 runs on a G4 AGP 400?

I just purchased a AGP 400 in order to connect an old SCSI HP Scanjet 4c scanner that was connected to my now dead (sigh) Performa 6400. HP does not support OS 9.0 for the Scanjet 4c running HP Deskscan II software, so I need to run OS 8.6 on the AGP. I am told that the AGP requires a special version of OS 8.6 and that 8.6 universal will not install. Does anybody know which version of 8.6 will work and where I can get a copy? Thanks. Brian

Hi, Brian -
The early model G4 (AGP) models came with a model-specific version of OS 8.6 -
Article #25114 - Mac OS 8, 9: Compatibility With Macs
Note (3) in that article, which is referred to by the entry for the G4 (AGP) models, indicates that a retail OS 8.6 Install CD probably will not work - but it does not state absolutely that it will not.
If you have access to a retail OS 8.6 Install CD, it would be worth giving it a try.
If that is not available or does not work, you would need to obtain a copy of the model-specific Software Install CD that came with that specific model.
Apple's Customer Support sometimes has replacement original CDs available; given the age of your machine that would be doubtful, but may be worth a free phone call to find out -

Otherwise, sites like EBay are a possibility.

How can we identify the location from which a map is run, in the map ?

Hi,
I have a map that moves data from source system into the target system.
I have two locations in the project (PROD_SOURCE and PROD_TARGET).
My map picks the source table from PROD_SOURCE location and inserts into the target table in PROD_TARGET location.
Now, this map can be deployed by changing the source location.
In my map, I want to find out the location and subsequently the source database from which the map was run. This has to be inserted into a table
Any pointers?

You can always query the data dictionary in a pre- or post- mapping procedure.
e.g.:
select dep.owner, dep.object_name
FROM PUBLIC_DEPENDENCY pd,
all_objects dep,
all_objects src
where pd.object_id = src.object_id
and pd.referenced_object_id = dep.object_id
and dep.object_Type = 'TABLE'
and src.owner = 'ERS_CTRL3X'
AND src.object_name = 'TEST_MAP'
AND src.object_type = 'PACKAGE BODY'
will give me the listed owner of all tables referenced in this mapping. Knowing the table name, I would have access to the owner name. Now, whether you also will need to query agains all_db_links to see where a given db link is pointing to resolve the owner etc, or all_synonyms to resolve local synonyms to the db_link that they operate against etc I do not know. But tracing the dependancy tree from the current runtime copy of the package will get you to what you need.

HI daddio,
Ok some things first I need to know...Did you use Microsoft cleanup utility to clean up all those uninstalls you have done?
I hate Norton and anyone who reads my posts will know that. I have seen way too many infected PC's by Norton users. Did you try the EWIDO and AdAware scan? I see you said you read lots of posts. That is helping folks remove the malware in order to get iTunes and quicktime back to health.

Content Server - Which SQL statements are running?

Hi sap lovers! Does anyone aware of which sql statements being run on the maxDB part when, e.g saving a document (or retrieving a document) (on the ABAP part) within our DMS landscape?
And at the whole, Is It possible to monitor sqls running on MAXDB, like we can see in ST04
-> Oracle Session
Regards,
Vladimir

You can find that out doing the following:
- on any ABAP system start DB59
- enter the data to connec to the content server database
- doubleclick on the made entry so you get in "DB50 for remote databases"
- switch on the command monitor
- then use the task manager and press on "running commands"

The IMEI only identifies the cellular part of the device to the carrier for authentication and service entitlements. Apple will probably use other identifiers to map it to a specific AppleID.

这个应该和SIT无关，意思是你有个MATLAB进程占用了某个端口号或者matlab的服务器正在运行，导致你现在的程序没法建立这个端口的服务器。试试刀windows进程管理里把matlab相关的进程kill掉，再启动试试。或者参考链接http://www.cnblogs.com/qiweiwang/archive/2010/07/29/1788281.html 里边有关于建立服务器的描述，就在前半部分。

i.e. Through eScript/Workflow etc can we extract the OS type on which SIebel is running?
I need to create a folder/directory on the machine where Siebel Server is running. But before creating the folder I want to know the type of OS(whether it is Windows or Unix). Can I get this piece of info by some code or using workflow etc?
I am using eScript to create the folder using Clib command.

Hello,
If you are using Reports 9.0.x, you can import the java class (java.lang.System)
and use the getProperty method (os.name, os.arch, os.version)
If you cannot / dont want to use java code, you can create an env var (REPORTS_OS for example), initialize this var with the system info and read it with the builtin TOOL_ENV.GETVAR.

I have an upgrade version of logic studio (9.1.1.) which I want to run on an imac with 10.7.4 osx Lion and after a seemingly successful install it's telling me that this version of logic studio isn't supported by my osx...Can someone help me with this?

I also want to add that I've found the updates to logic pro 9.1.2 thru 9.1.7. and when I download them they tell me they are either not needed or don't seem to actually update anything. Someone was saying that Logic Studio isn't a fan of Lion and I should install Snow Leopard, complete Logic updates and then re-install Lion. PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi there,
You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
Nathan

Dropped My Laptop - Which Tests Should I Run To Assure It's Fine?

Unfortunately I placed my one + a half year old 15" MacBook Pro laptop on a new tilted notebook cooler (that has no grip), & sat them both on my computer chair while in use. To my recollection I only had the YouTube homepage open without any video playing, and Dropbox was downloading some small photo files to my laptop intermittently (that I was uploading from my iPhone at the time). I walked away and it suddenly all fell from a height of 2 feet. When I looked they were both sitting on the floor. The screen was in the same position I had it in (so it likely didn't land display first), & the notebook cooler was sitting to the left of it still connected via USB. I'm not sure that the soft notebook cooler broke it's fall (see attached photo), but it's crazy how it all landed flat as of it were being placed side by side on a table. The usb cord from the cooler didn't even yank itself out at all. My room is carpeted, but nonetheless I freaked out because it's a fairly new MacBook Pro, with a brand new 750GB Western Digital Black series 7200rpm sata hard drive (that I had just installed a couple months ago). The hard drive is obviously of importance to me since it carries a lot of my recent project/work files.
Luckily I have the original internal hard drive that initially came with my system. It contains all of the files I would have had a couple months back in working order. It's now in an external USB enclosure, because I had used Carbon Copy Cloner to migrate/backup an exact image of everything (data & OS) from my original drive, to my newer Western Digital hard drive - prior to installing it 2 months ago.
The first thing I did was inspect my laptop on the outside. I can tell you that surprising as it is there is absolutely no damage clear to the human eye that I can see on the exterior body. From what I've heard the MacBook Pro shell is actually made out of a solid piece of aluminum. The hinge when you move the screen still feels the same as it did before too. I have quite the computer skills background, so I opened the case up just to give it a glace over with my magnifying glasses headset and a flashlight. I looked at the motherboard over and over for about an hour to double, and triple check that there was no damage to the motherboard (ie: cracks, broken solder, bent usb port that was in use during the fall, etc). From what I saw there was absolutely no damage to the important parts of the laptop. I had opened up the case before, and it looked pretty much the same... The only thing I noticed damaged, were the 3 screw holes that hold the laptop battery in place (one is under a black leftside sticker). Such a minor crack on each of the plastic screw holes (on the plastic battery body, not the aluminum laptop case). They were very minor cracks yet still in place, you'd have to look closely to see them. Now I can't remember well, but I think the last time I opened the case months ago they may have already been like that. & I may have just left it as they were. If so the damage could have been caused by over screwing at the factory. I'm not sure, but if not the fall may have caused it. So I took the battery out and super glued the screw holes back to the battery body properly (see attached photo). I could not, and would not disassemble the MacBook Pro motherboard, & other device pieces for a more thorough check over a 2 foot fall. I just don't think it's warranted to do so, being that everything else on the underside seems to be fine to the naked eye. I guess it would be going overboard...
A quick factoid:
Apparently my MacBook Pro has a feature called SMS (Sudden Motion Sensor). The Sudden Motion Sensor is designed to detect unusually strong vibrations, sudden changes in position, and accelerated movement. If the sensor detects any of these, it instantly parks the hard drive heads to help reduce the risk of damage to the hard drive in case of impact. When the SMS senses that the computer's position is once again stable, it unlocks the hard drive heads and returns to normal operation. In general, SMS protection does not change hard disk performance with regular operation.
Also my new internal Western Digital Black series hard drive specifically states on their website to having "Rock-solid Mechanical Architecture." With enhanced reliability features help protect the drive and the data stored on it. As well as "NoTouch Ramp Load technology" - The recording head never touches the disk media ensuring significantly less wear to the recording head and media as well as better drive protection in transit. Although I don't know if these Western Digital features apply to normal operating hdd use while powered on, or just when you have your laptop powered off (eg: parked head position when shutdown).
I called Western Digital since the hard drive has a 5 year warranty (unheard of). & I asked them if they had any software to diagnose the drive beyond Disk Utility's simple "SMART" status info in Mountain Lion's Mac OS X 10 (which showed up okay by the way). Anyways Western Digital does have software to do a thorough SMART test, and surface scan checking for Windows (which I have used before on my other pcs in the past). But they don't have one for Mac, and he suggested I take the hard drive out, then pop it in a pc to scan it. But I'm not even sure a pc would recognize the disk being that it's formatted differently in comparison to the pc standard of NTFS. I believe he said to reformat it as NTFS, but that would defeat the purpose of a faster scanning method, and leaving it as is.
So now what I'd like to do is use a program I found called "TechTool Pro 7." I'll install it to the original hard drive that came with my MacBook Pro (that's now in my external usb enclosure), and use it to run every possible scan on my MackBook Pro to make sure everything that appears to be okay - actually is. But most importantly to run a thorough SMART test, and surface scan on the newer internal hard drive that experienced the fall. Since TechTook Pro 7 does have the ability to do so on any drive. Ya, believe it or not newer Mac's don't have a surface scan feature in the OS. Remember the external usb hard drive is an exact 1:1 image of my working MacBook Pro a couple months back. So I should be able to boot off it, and install the program onto it. Of course I'd be turning off my Wi-Fi during TechTool Pro 7 use, to avoid any unrelated software updates from other programs while scanning.
I need to run a surface scan on this drive asap, and I will. I'd appreciate it if you guys would give me general things I should do to test all of my laptops hardware to determine if everything is alright or not. Let me know what type of things I should use to test all of the internal laptops hardware. Let me know what to look for... & how I should go about using my laptop for the next month or so. I will probably be doing tests on it every two weeks just to make sure it's okay until Spring hits. If everything is fine then, well it should be good for the long term - and have survived the impact well enough.
Thank You Apple Forum Users & Happy New Year
P.s.
If anybody knows what type of drop tolerance a hard drive can take (and survive) while in use let me know. Also I did come up with a couple of things on Google that supposedly can help. One is Apple Diagnostics, and the second is called Apple Hardware Test. If you Google them they'll come up, but I have no idea if these are for desktop style Mac's only or laptops too since they don't mention the word laptop. See here for a quicker view:

in the future, buy this, this is what the Pros use:
for drops, accidents, spills, loss, or theft, purchase a TYPE of insurance called "inland marine insurance"
roughly $30 per year for a device(s) with 0 deductible, used same for over 20 years, same insurance the pros use on their portable devices.
very cheap, very useful insurance, most people dont know about same.
