Why Does My Calculator 'Currency Conversion' Not Work

Yesterday I updated my Security Software on both of my computers: G4 Powerbook and MiniMac.... Today while using the Apple CALCULATOR, I decided to update the 'currency conversion table' (on my laptop). After clicking the UPDATE button it went through its normal downloading/updating aspect and the usual window popped up that reads, "currencies updated:", except the window was anything but usual.... it was wider than my screen... and it said "currencies updated:" but had nothing listed at all on the visible window, it was blank!
Being that I could not move the window to reveal a close button the only way I could close it was to use the FORCE QUIT. Upon reopening the calculator and making a currency conversion, the currency selection windows are larger than normal and selecting a particular currency has no affect. It doesn't respond at all.
Thinking it was a glitch on my laptop I updated the 'currency conversion' on the MiniMAC and exactly the same thing transpired on it, as well.....
So.....
Can somebody tell me how to fix this so I can use my calculator(s) again?
Is there something wrong with Apple's link to CURRENCY UPDATE that did this or is there something amiss with the new Security Update (2006-008) ?

Thanks Rostron .... for at least checking it out on your machine... guess if it happened to you also, it must be a glitch with the Apple Software or update... guess I needed to know that it wasn't both my computers.
Thanks for the Dashboard Widget suggestion. That's what I ended up doing, but I do like the convenience of the regular Calculator as I generally have it already open.
So I guess I'll send info to Apple about this 'BUG' and maybe I should warn everybody to 'NOT' UPDATE THE CURRENCY CONVERSION TABLE lest this predicament may befall them as well!

Why Does Live View In DW Not Work With BC Template?

The live view using a BC template in DW CS6 shows "PAGE NOT FOUND" in the body section but the header and footer look fine. I should also point out that the index.htm page works fine, it's just the other pages that have this problem. What makes it weirder is that the site works fine in all other modes including when viewing in a normal browser, it's ONLY when in live view! I also noticed that if I delete the .htm extension in the url in the DW browser when in Live View it fixes the problem, but this requires me to do this everytime I want to switch to live view and surely is either a problem with how the BC template files are named or DW CS6 is buggy? Hopefully this is an easy one to answer??

Why does my printer HP 3080 not work with Mac OS X VERSION 10.7.5

Why does my printer HP 3080 not work with Mac OS X VERSION 10.7.5. Am I missing a driver? If so where do I go to download it? thanks

What's the full model number and name of the printer? I can't seem to find any HP printer with the numbers 3080 in the model number.
How are you connecting the printer to the Mac?
I am a printer tech for HP.

Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5?

Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5? What can I do to make it work again?

It should. It will only respond if there's something on the card for it to respond to, so do you have pics on the card?
And if it's messing up; try giving the iPad a restart. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see hte red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. That can clear up any glitches on the device itself.

Currency conversion not working for foreign entity

I am having an issue with currency conversion not generating the correct values for foreign entities. For entities where the currency is USD, I am able to see the LC amount being written to USD. However, for entites that have currencies other than USD, I just see zeros. I have double-checked to make sure that rates exist for the given currencies. Below is the logic script I am using which is a modificatio nof the multicurrency.lgl. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
// filter the appropriate currencies and rates
*SELECT(%REPORTING_CURRENCIES%, "[ID]", "RptCurrency", "[REPORTING] = 'Y'")
*SELECT(%FX_RATES%,"[ID]","RATE","[GROUP]='FX RATE'")
// set the appropriate region to clear
//(all reporting currencies)
*CLEAR_DESTINATION
*DESTINATION RPTCURRENCY=%REPORTING_CURRENCIES%
// load the rates from the RATE cube
*LOOKUP RATE
*DIM RATESRC="RATECALC"
*DIM Rate=ARFIELD.RATETYPE
*DIM SOURCECURR: INPUTCURRENCY=LOC_MILLOTH.CURRENCY
*FOR %CURR%=%REPORTING_CURRENCIES%
*DIM %CURR%:INPUTCURRENCY="%CURR%"
*NEXT
*ENDLOOKUP
// define the translation rule
*WHEN ARFIELD.RATETYPE
*IS "NOTRANS"
// translate
*IS %FX_RATES%
       *FOR %CURR%=%REPORTING_CURRENCIES%
           *REC(FACTOR=LOOKUP(SOURCECURR)/LOOKUP(%CURR%),RptCurrency="%CURR%")
       *NEXT
*ELSE
       *FOR %CURR%=%REPORTING_CURRENCIES%
           *REC(RptCurrency="%CURR%")
       *NEXT
*ENDWHEN
*FOR %CURR%=%REPORTING_CURRENCIES%
         [RptCurrency].[#%CURR%]=null
*NEXT
*COMMIT

Hi Karen,
I'm no script logic expert so I won't comment on your code. If it's working for USD then the code is probably fine.
There are a few other things you could check (these are based on investigation using the standard multicurrency script). They should line up with the standard Finance application from AppSet
In the InputCurrency dimension for the currencies you want to convert into :
   Check property Reporting is equal to "Y"
   Check property Group is set to "Report"
   Check propoerty MD has a value of "M" or "D"
In the RptCurrency dimension you need to have entries for the the currencies you want to convert into (AppSet only has USD and EUR to start). Also for each of the currencies :
   Check property Reporting is equal to "Y"
   Check property Group is equal to "Report"
   Check property Transfer is equal to "Y"
I'm not convinced that the Transfer value is required but from my testing if you get the above set up and use the standard multicurrency script it will work.
The testing I did was translating into USD, EUR, GBP, CHF, AUD etc
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
Bradley Newcombe.

HELP! Why does my Drag and Drop not work Completely?

Hello! I'm working on an ActionScript 3 movie clip in Adobe Flash. In the interactive movie I want the user to create a snowman with the parts on the left side. (Picture below.)
On the right side I have the snowman slightly visible, so the user knows where to put the parts. Most of it seems to work... but after I put on the body, hat, and arms the other pieces don't work; like the eyes, nose, mouth, etc. Why does it not work? Can someone help me?
This is how it should look at the end, when the user complets it.
I think I coded this correctly. But I'm not sure. Please take a look at my code and see what the problem is. Thanks!!!

Currency conversion not working in web templates after migration to 7.0

Hi Gurus,
I am experiencing an interesting issue in BI7. I have my web-template reports build on one or two queries. When I execute the queries from RSRT I have all the amounts properly converted to USD (there is a bex variable defined on the query level with USD as default). However, when executed from web-browser the conversions does not work when the report opens. Now, when I open the "cur. translation" option from KF popup menu and choose the same values I chose on the variable screen - everything works fine.
Have you experienced similar issue(s)? Please share your experience and kindly avoid pasting links for documentation - these I have already reviewed and it's pointless.
Thank you, KAT

Currency Conversion not working

Hi All,
Currency conversion is failing with error message as below.
SAP DBTech JDBC: [2048]: column store error: search table error: [2620] executor: plan operation failed;currency/unit conversion error,Conversion( "AMOUNT" ), row 0: could not determine valid conversion rate for value(s) 3750 from unit 'USD' to unit 'INR' on date 2013-11-15 00:00:00.0000000
For currency conversion, I've done
Assign Client for currency conversion.
Assign Schema which holds all TCUR* tables and set the same as default schema for the model in Semantics section.
In TCURR table, I've below set of records for USD to INR conversion, exchange type used in Currency Conversion is 'M'.
I tried different exchange rates and converting to different currencies. Target currency is fed by Input Parameter which is defined of Semantic Type - Currency.
Even conversion fails for fixed target currency.
Am I missing something? Please provide your inputs.
Regards,
Chandra.

Hi Chandra,
Can you share the screen of your calculated measure showing the currency conversion.
Can you check with date 30.11.2011 and see if the conversion is taking place? Assuming that client and schema details are fine.

Krishna Tangudu

Why does batch rename Original Case not work properly?

The Batch rename funtion for >Current Filename >Name >Original Case does not work.
Why?

For some reason it doesn't do a thing. Unless my inderstanding of its function is not correct.
It doesn't a thing by design, when having selected 'current filename' / Name / and 'Original Case' it does what it says, it leaves everything original as is in the existing filename. You can also choose to use uppercase and lowercase to either change all characters of the existing file name to uppercase or lowercase.
I can imagine you have been mislead by the fact the write UPPERCASE and lowercase to show as an example and used two capitals in 'Original Case'. Sadly enough the use of capitals in common throughout Bridge is not very consistent and sometimes even very strange to put it mildly…

Why does the address/status bar not work?

After updating to 9.0.1, my status bar will not work, or my address bar. If I try to type in anything and press enter into the address bar, nothing happens. Also, I cannot press forward or back as they always remain grayed out. The only way I can get to a website is by pressing home, which is thankfully google. I have to google the url to go to it.
Remembering now actually, I copied all the folders from the main firefox folder and pasted them into a new install of firefox (I had this problem actually before firefox updated). I was hoping that copying these folders would save my addons and etc. after I downloaded a new firefox and re-installed it. I put the folders back and firefox is still messed up :/
I just want it to work more Q_Q

That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

Why does my canoscan 9950FII suddenly not work anymore? Mountain Lion. Error: scanner not found and PCPower no longer supported.

New iMac with OS X Mountain Lion. Canocan 9950F II, bought new because my old 9950F was not supported by Mac. Driver installed from CD, everything fine, worked perfectly. After some time of not using the scanner, I tried to scan a document now. It did not work. It says it cannot find the scanner although everything is plugged in and switched on. And then the message that PC Power is no longer supported. HELP!!!

Check the Canon Web Site for new software and download the software for Mac OS X (Intel Mac) or select Intel Mac from the install disk.
I checked the Canon Support Site, but there isn't a 9950F Mark II on the U.K Site, but there is a 9000F Mark II.
The messgae you are getting suggests the PowerPC software version has been installed instead of the Intel Version.
