Cannot transfer UUID. BIOS from source to destination comments including the preserveIdentity SDK SOAP property set.

We use VMWare converter in our infrastructure and have another product, interfacing with it to enable us to Flex the guest virtual (disk, RAM and CPU) computer settings. We have been asked to maintain customer source UUID as our backup infrastructure depends on it.

After much time Google/Bing, I found that I need to use the preserveIdentity property in the xml file we will submit to the Web Service API. Find the details here:

https://www.VMware.com/support/developer/converter-SDK/conv50_apireference/converter.params.CloningParams.html

An example of the xml, we present (values between stars, are replaced just before the xml gets submitted to the converter):

  • Cannot transfer music CD from PC to iPhone 5 s

    I've been watching several tutorials and read several articles on the transfer of music from CD via iTunes from my PC to my iPhone 5 s. My attempts (about 20 + so far), have failed to duplicate one of their results.

    I can get the CD of music imported from iTunes. From there, whenever the music was sent to the iPhone, it appears as if she was there in my music on the phone.

    However, as soon as I'm away from my WiFi service, any attempt to play music fail and tell me that I need to get a WiFi connection or use the data cell to listen.

    My question is, if music has reportedly been downloaded in the iPhone, why would require these connections?

    Obviously, I didn't do something correctly.

    Thanks for help.

    If you have enabled iTunes game or iCloud music library, so your music is actually in the cloud, this is why you need a Wi - Fi or cellular internet connection.

    To download these titles to be stored locally on the storage device you have specifically SELECT to do so.

    You must install correctly ps cs5 on your new computer by using the installation files (linked below).  you just need your serial number and the installation file.

    If you no longer need ps cs5 on your old computer, or you have already used your two activatations allowed, disable (open ps > help > deactivate) on your old computer.

  • When I transfer a file from photoshop into indesign, what is the best format for printing purposes?

    Let me give you a little background here. I do my mini portfolio. It is a collection of works of my choice. I place objects in Indesign. I placed Indesign and Illustrator files in Indesign without going through problems of impressions pixelated. When I placed a Photoshop file in Indesign my pixelated image slightly. Guys can help me solve my problem? Thank you.

    You must ensure that the files have a sufficient number of pixels at a certain size and a certain ppi.

    For example, to print an image of 8 x 10 inches at 300 dpi, you need 2400 x 3000 pixels. (8 x 300 per 10 x 300)

    If you resize the image upwards in Indesign, the ppi will be reduced. Choose the image and let effective ppi in the links Panel.

    If th pixelation only happens in Indesign and not when printing, do a right-click on the image in the layout and choose display performance > high quality display.

    You can also set in display performance preferences.

    But what you see in Indesign is in any case an overview of reduced quality, not the original.

  • Cannot transfer music from iTunes to the iPod nano.

    I can't transfer music from iTunes to my iPod. My laptop has Windows XP and my iPod nano is 6 years old. (I do not know what generation it is). the instructions say to click on "sources" to choose the IPod, but I can't find this option in iTunes.

    The latest version of iTunes can be different, so former instructions can be confusing.

    There are several ways to load songs on an iPod, including the auto sync and manual loading.  I will describe the method that automatically synchronizes the iPod to a playlist in your iTunes library.  First, you must create a new playlist in your iTunes library and add all the songs you want on the iPod playlist.  You can call iPod songs playlists (or whatever you want).  If you already have a "Favorites" playlist, you can use it.

    Then, select the iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its settings screen in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings. Click on music.  Right, parameters of music on the iPod screen.

    NOTE: All the songs on the iPod that are not on your iTunes library (on the computer) will be lost.

    At the top, check the box to Sync music.  This enables automatic synchronization.  Below, choose the option to synchronize playlists selected, artists, album and genres.  Below, under playlists, search for and select (checkmark) playlists iPod songs you create earlier.  You can select the other items in these lists, if you wish.  When you click apply, iTunes syncs your selection to iPod.

    Go ahead, update of the songs on the iPod, update iPod songs playlist in your iTunes (add/remove songs).  The iPod has no need to be connected.  The next time that you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected), iTunes automatically updated the iPod with the same changes.  I use this method with my iPod nano, unless I have several playlists (not one) that I sync with my iPod.

  • Cannot transfer photos from the Treo 680 for PC

    First of all, I bought this phone and he didn't get any software CD provided whatsoever. I downloaded the software from Palm.Com HotSync and after reading all the horror stories that it does not include a way to transfer pictures or other objects generated from the smart phone without this software, I'm about to pull out my hair!

    There must be another way that e-mail each photo of the photo to one email account to retrieve those pictures. I can't work when I try to attach a photo and send it to an email address is valid. I always get this error message:

    VersaMail: "the connection has been made, but the SMTP server is not respoding." I have check the setting for the SMTP Protocol and they are valid and only happens when you attach a file to a message.

    Is there any 3rd party software for the Palm Treo 680, that will allow me to transfer photos (jpg) from my phone on my computer?

    Thanks for looking at my problem.

    Hello!

    Palm Desktop Version 6 has the ability of multimedia synchronization.  As long as you are using Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista, you can use this version of Palm Desktop. Simply choose the Centro for your device to get this version.  The trade will be that colors in the calendar, the themes and Versamail sync encoding are not supported in this version.
