    You've got an  incompatible Logitech driver and java was incompletely uninstalled.
    You may have a problem with the Wacom driver.
    I don't know if fixing those things will help.
    There also a few window server errors, but I don't know if they are causal.
    If you can note the time of the hangs, that might help narrow it down in the logs.

  • Free webinar (Dec. 15, 10am PST): "Using pdfmark commands to define Acrobat features in FM"

    Free 1-hour webinar:
    "Using pdfmark commands to define Acrobat features in FrameMaker: an introduction"
    December 15, starting 10am PST
    [ Register at: https://www3.gotomeeting.com/register/728332454 ]
    Are you interested in PDF settings beyond what can be specified in FrameMaker -- such as custom bookmarks (e.g. pointing to web sites, e-mail feedback, search), initial view settings, custom named destinations ?
    pdfmark, an extension to the PostScript page description language, enables you to specify PDF features in your source FrameMaker files.
    When processed by Distiller, the PDF features you specify will be created automatically (no need to redefine the features in Acrobat everytime you update your content and have to recreate the PDF).
    The session starts with some use cases and an overview of pdfmark commands (with pointers to additional information), and proceeds to discuss/demonstrate pdfmark insertion mechanisms (including PostScript text frames in FrameMaker files, hypertext markers and "shortcuts" with FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers, prologue/epilogue files).
    (not FM/Acrobat version-specific)

    Yeah...I think I found that one out the hard way already. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. I want to get this issue fixed before I start thinking about the license issue.

    Hello everyone,
    Im getting the next spanish error "El sistema al que está conectado en estos momentos no es BW 7.02 ni posterior. Desconéctese y elija otro sistema.". Just when im trying to connect xcelsius 2008 and sap netweaver 7.01. I get this error when i try to set a SAP Netweaver BW Connection.
    My configuration is like this:
    Server Side:

    Thanks a lot to everyone

    Ashish thanks for your reply,

    I try to connect using the sap native client (SAP LOGON APPLICATION) and i have no problem, it works fine.
    in the client side i also have installed SAP GUI 710 patch level 11 but also i tested with level patch 14

  • Best Practice Re-install Process?  (Xcelsius 2008 Engage)

    The main impetus of this post is now to request a best practice reinstall process.  E.g., what files/directories or registry keys to delete after uninstalling under Windows XP?  Running Xcelsius 2008 5.1.1.0 Build 12,1,1,344 (Windows XP SP2)?  I want to clean it up and reinstall completely, ideally without also reinstalling Office 2007.
    Earlier today, I had loaded up an otherwise healthy project and all of a sudden my edits were not taking.  I could perform the change in the Component Properties window but the change did not translate in the project display area.
    I had closed and reopened this project several times, killed both "Xcelsius" and "EXCEL" processes, rebooted the machine a couple of times, all to no avail.  I was totally stuck, it seems.  Then, it randomly corrected itself after the Xth close/reboot/reload.  I'm past the issue now it seems, but please consider this an official bug report.  These issues are no longer a mere minor nuisance, and I am looking forward to a nice big update in the next Fix Pack release, which I assume is right around the corner (hint, hint).
    Thanks.

    f l,
    I'm not sure deleting keys from the registry is ever a best practice, however Xcelsius has listings in:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Business Objects > Xcelsius
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Business Objects > Suite 12.0 > Xcelsius
    The current user folder holds temporary settings, such as how you've modified your interface.
    The local machine folder holds more important information.
    As always, it's recommended that you backup the registry and/or create a restore point before modifying or deleting any keys.
    As for directories, the only directory Xcelsius uses is the one you install to.  It also places some install logs in the temp directory, but they have no effect on the application.

  • Can't Install Xcelsius 2008 with Office/Excel 2010 Beta on XP

    I am running the latest beta version of Office 2010 and when I try to install Xcelsius 2008 i get an error and it aborts the install. Error says:
    Office XP application: Excel, Word, Outlook or Powerpoint must be pre-installed.  Higher versions work fine.
    Am I missing something on why this wouldnt work?
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Hi Tim,
    There is a work around for your problem, go to my blog: http://www.pieterverstraeten.com/blog/sap-bo-crystal-dashboard-design-2008-installation-cobmination-with-ms-office-2010-xcelsius-liveoffice/
    Today I downloaded the new version of Xcelius, SAP BO Dashboards 4.0. This version will support MS Office 2010! This version will be available the 23th of February 2011.
    I hope this will solve your problem.

  • Error to install Xcelsius 2008 on Windows vista. Error 1935.

    I have a big problem, I need install Xcelsius 2008 on Windows vista, but when I install the software apper the nex message:
    Error 1935 Error al instalar el ensamblado.
    "Microsoft.VC80.ATL,type ="Win32",version= "8.0.50727.762",pubicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86"". Consulte Ayude y soporte tecnico para obtener mas informacion.

    From a brief Google search, I determined this error message is from Vista. It is not being produced by Xcelsius. You will need to do your own search and determine what is causing Vista to report this error. You can also try installing using instructions for Xcelsius installation on Vista posted elsewhere in these forums.

  • Not able to see Data in Xcelsius 2008

    Hi everyone,
    My question is I am not able to see data in Xcelsius spreadsheet although I am able to connect to SAP BW and also able to see and select query but when I select Cross Tab Data in output Values it is not displaying in Xcelsius spreadsheet
    System Info
    Xcelsius 2008 Enterprise Trial Version SP 3.0
    SAP BW 7.1 SP 6 ABAP and JAVA
    Any help would be appreciated

    Hi Rashid,
    When you are using the BW conenction in Xcelsius you will not see any data in the spreadsheet at design time or at preview time.
    To see the data you need to go SAP > Publish, then SAP > Launch to test the dashboard in the NetWeaver Portal as that is the only place where the data can be viewed.
    Regards

  • Updating data in Xcelsius 2008 Export from Excel Spreadsheet

    Xcelsius 2008 newbie question....
    I have created a Xcelsius export (.swf) that display my data. However it appears the data is static after exporting.
    I am at a loss as to how you force it to update/refresh using the connections used in the excel.
    Am I missing something? I cannot find a straight answer, do need LiveOffice?
    How do I have an (.swf) export file that refreshes data itself????

    The easiest way to get data to update in your swf is to create a connection in the Data Manager.  After the connection is setup you can add a connection refresh button to allow the swf viewer to trigger that connection.
    To get data to refresh automatically, you can setup the connection to trigger or update on interval.
    For more information you can check out the learning center:

  • XCelsius 2008 is not backward compatible with ver 4.5

    Post Author: Joseph
    CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
    I tried opening a project that was done with ver 4.5 but it just said that "Crystal Xcelsius is unable to load this file. This file may be corrupt or may have features that cannot be supported by this version of Crystal Xcelsius." So i guess I probably have to recreate the project in the 2008 version to take advantage of the new features available. So I imported the excel datasheet used in the old project to a new project in Xcelsius 2008 and tried recreating the objects from scratch. I had started with an accordion menu and two list boxes and then I decided to export to swf to test. However, the result was disappointing. I could only see the two list boxes but not the accordion menu. There was a message saying "Initializing..." that stayed. Does this mean I have to recreate the excel data from scratch as well?

    X2008 is backward compatible with CX4.5.  But Jim is correct. There is a bug in X2008 which prevents it from opening some 4.5 models by double-clicking on the filename.  They can be opened from the File > Open menu.  This only affects opening the model.Due to the many changes between CX4.5 and X2008, the migration of old CX4.5 models is not clean.  Differences will be seen.  Most are cosmetic affecting only the look of the model.  But some tidy up, color changes and re-alignment work must be done.   There was no way to gain the benefits of X2008 and still keep CX4.5 models unchanged.Andy  

  • SAP Authentication issue in Xcelsius 2008 SP4

    Ingo Can you help me?
    Xcelsius 2008 SP4 Failed to Open/Save from BusinessObjects Enterprise and throws an error Failed While Trying to Logon User "0000" RFC error: "LOGON_DATA_INCOMPLETE" when using SAP Authentication.
    It works perfect with Enterprise.
    Recently we have upgraded from Xcelsius 2008 SP3 FP 3.5 to Xcelsius 2008 SP4. It also displays the password without encrypting.
    BOE 3.1 Sp3
    Integration Kit SP3Fix Pack 3.2
    SAP GUI 720
    Xcelsius 2008 SP4
    It was working good with SAP Authentication when using Xcelsius 2008 SP3 FP3.5
    Thanks
    Dais

    Hi,
    As a starting point, i would strongly recommend you standardise all your component versions.
    from what i can see, you've just asserted that Server, Integration Kit, and Client  are all on different Fix levels..
    that's not a nice baseline on which to investigate!  
    Also, patching would also include importing the correct SAP Transports into your BW. (they change almost every FP)

  • Error while installing Xcelsius 2008

    Hi,
    We are getting error while installing Xcelsius 2008  version 5.3.....
    "The upgrade patch cannot be installed by windows installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch"
    Kindly suggest how to install the Xcelsius latest verion.
    With Regards,
    Pearl

    Hi Pearl,
    Sorry if you've already done this, but have you installed Xcelsius 2008 SP3 first?  It sounds like you are trying to install a fix pack without first installing Xcelsius 2008.
    The downloads are all available from the [downloads service market place|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/] (as per the stickied thread)
    If you choose Service Pack as the software type it will allow for download of the SP3 full install.
    OR
    Could it be this issue [Xcelsius FP3.5 error installing Excel2010; with solution from F. Kooij if you are referring to the latest fix pack 3.5 with Office 2010?

  • Xcelsius 2008 on top of SAP BPC

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to use Xcelsius 2008 on top of SAP BPC.
    I want following functionality in my dashboard:
    1. There is a drop down in the dashboard for Year-Month selection.
    2. Based on that selection, the BPC query to be refreshed for the selected month and my dashboard will show data for the selected month. While integrating with WebI using LiveOffice, we used to do this by binding the prompt to a cell in excel and selecting on demand refresh option. Can we do the similar thing while integrating with BPC ?
    3. Can we create multiple BPC reports in the same excel file to build the excel model for my dashboard ?
    Can these requirements be achieved by using Xcelsius on top of BPC using EPMConnector.xlx ?
    Many thanks,
    PASG

    Hi Sanjay,
    You need to use different operation types of the EPM Connector for this.
    Have a look at this how to guide:
