change the name of the base directory

How can I change the name of the BASE DIRECTORY? without loss of all files, programs and information.

IM alredy see this: change the name of the OS X user account and the name of folder on your Mac - Apple Support

but nothink on the name of the BASE DIRECTORY.

A user of instant messaging on this MBP and administrator also me.

Step 2 under Lion or later:

Go to the folder on the startup disk users. The users folder contains the base folder of the account that you are renaming. Rename the folder for this account, and note the old name and the new name. When you rename the folder, you will be prompted to enter the name administroator and the password that you used to connect.

But note that you must be logged in as a different user you are trying to rename. So, you will need to create a new account and allow him to administer the computer. Connect to this user and follow the instructions in the link you provided.

  • How can I change the target directory for NOR-DAQ 6.9.3?

    I try to install NOR-DAQ 6.9.3 on a new laptop computer.  I tried to change the target directory, but the installer does not allow me to change it.  Is it possible to change the directory?

    When you say that the installation program does not let you change the directory target, you receive an error?  In my view, is it possible to change the target directory by selecting the feature in the feature tree, then by manually changing the target directory to the bottom of the installer.  When this is done, a pop up will occur who says a new folder will be created to save the files to.

  • Need to change the ORACLE_BASE directory

    Hello

    Network infrastructure (software only), I installed RHEL5 n 11.2.0.3.
    When the installation is complete, I realized I didn't give the right directory for ORACLE_BASE.

    In the directory that I gave to the installer, a directory named "checkpoints" appeared.

    Can someone give me the process to change the ORACLE_BASE directory after installation (software only)?

    For more information, I found references in the configuration file 3:
    grep - r "ORACLE_BASE is < ORACLE_BASE >." / *
    ./bin/racgwrap:ORACLE_BASE= < ORACLE_BASE >
    ./CRS/install/crsconfig_params:ORACLE_BASE= < ORACLE_BASE >
    ./install/envVars.properties:ORACLE_BASE= < ORACLE_BASE >

    Thank in advance for help you.

    Use the mv command and be sure to make the necessary changes in the .profile file so that when you open a session peak $ORACLE_BASE always to the new directory.

    because the operating system is Linux, you can use softlink (similar as synonyms in the database), use, it solves half of your problem.

  • Creating cloud - BUG change the installation directory for applications

    I searched and could not find this similar post here

    http://forums.Adobe.com/message/5498967#5498967

    Who stated the issue I am experiencing.  In the program office cloud creative preferences, I changed the D drive installation directory because I have my main hard drive partitioned and programs would take too much space on C.  Whatever the change in preferences, applications were still installing on my C drive.  I tried to restart and reinstall and nothing seemed to work.

    Finally, I decided to reassign my D partition to C, I must still complete this because I'm waiting for all the data on D to be transferred to an external drive, so I can recombine it in C without losing any data (I don't know if this is necessary, I have not recombined partitions in the front operating system (, but just to be sure)

    IN ANY CASE

    As I am awaiting transfer (more 120gbs takes a while) I changed the installation directory in the preferences of creative cloud to C and went ahead and installed the program I wanted to before all this.  Guess what?  It is installed on my D drive!

    This isn't a serious bug for me, just incredibly boring and causing a lot of extra work on my part just to install the program I wanted to.  However for someone who requires a different install directory to and cannot reorganize their computer to take account of this bug, I could see that she is more serious.  If anyone else has had this problem and found a solution?  Thank you.

    Adobe PS rock you, I hope that your other programs CC feel not hurried to immediate as does your Installer

    Thanks for the update Julie.  It is information that you have been able to install applications for the location on the D: drive.  Shared resources and temporary installation files will continue to be on the C: drive.  Please maintain enough disk space on your drive to allow installation of the necessary updates.  In general, I'd recommend at least having double the amount of free space on your system drive, to the amount of physical RAM, you have installed on the computer.

    You can find the system requirements for Adobe applications, and an indication of the disk space required for installation, system required. Creative cloud.

    How can I change the base color in the work of Recolor settings? I know that this seems a silly thing but I really need to figure this point and I have read and went through the manual and the forum for help, without result. Help, please.

    Click the color you want in the "new color" column. Then click the base color next to the list of color harmonies, which will change then, but the harmonies of color will depend on your desired color.

  • Impossible to change the working directory

    I'm trying to change the working of a computer virtual directory so that snapshots are stored in a different data store.

    I used the following two articles for instruction:

    "Create snapshots in a different virtual directory default location"

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC & docType = kc & docTypeID = DT_KB_1_1 & externalId = 1002929

    "Record or adding a virtual machine to inventory".

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1006160

    I recorded my VM.  I added the following line to my .vmx:

    workingDir = "/ vmfs/volumes/4cb6d8b0-45f1b122-3a3a-d48564535eca/vm-snapshots.

    This has been copied directly from management.  The only thing I changed was the part of the path that identifies my data store.

    Note: I also tried to use 'vmsnapshots' to ensure that the hyphen was not my problem, but I got the same error message.

    I recorded my VM.  I have no problem adding the .vmx inventory.  When I right click on my VM and go change the settings > Options, the workplace of VM looks OK.  4cb6d8b0-45f1b122-3a3a-d48564535eca translated correctly to the identifier for the data store (it looks like this: [DL360G7DS1] vm-snapshots /).  I turned on my virtual computer.  I get the following error message:

    "This virtual machine cannot be turned on because its working directory is invalid. Use the configuration editor to define a valid working directory and then try again. »

    I didn't know if the "vm-pictures" directory would be created automatically or if I have to create it, so I tried both ways.  There is no space in my path name or a folder.  I had not changed anything else in my .vmx and when I remove the line workingDir, VM powers on without problem.

    There is a good chance I'm missing something simple here.  The path seems to be accepted and pointing in the right direction.  I don't know what I have to do to "vm-shots" to make it valid.  The instructions didn't about the requirements for this directory.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  Please let me know if I does not provide enough information or if the rest of my .vmx file should be displayed.

    I would just put the hard in the home folder of the new virtual machine after I have it create?

    From what I understand so far, there is not enough free disk space on the data store "2MB" to host the virtual machine! If there is enough free space on the disk so you can just migrate the virtual machine in this data store using vCenter Server. If there is not enough disk space, you can create a new virtual machine on the data store "2MB" and leave the virtual disks on the data store '1 MB' for now. Just make sure that you document it (for example in the annotations of the virtual machine) If you don't accidentally delete the old folder with the the.vmdk file.

  • With the help of deployment plan to change the virtual directory mapping

    Hi all
    Have anyone tried this before?
    I have a deployment plan to add the virtual directory to my descriptors of weblogic as follows:

    Inside tag <>variable-definitions:
     <variable> 
          <name>LocalPath</name>
          <value>C:/</value>
        </variable> 
        <variable>
          <name>VirtualPath</name>
          <value>/Temp/*</value>
        </variable> 
    Then, to add the virtual directory to weblogic.xml in:
    <module-descriptor external="false">
          <root-element>weblogic-web-app</root-element>
          <uri>WEB-INF/weblogic.xml</uri>
          <variable-assignment>
             <name>LocalPath</name>
             <xpath>/weblogic-web-app/virtual-directory-mapping/local-path</xpath>
          </variable-assignment>
          <variable-assignment>
             <name>VirtualPath</name>
             <xpath>/weblogic-web-app/virtual-directory-mapping/url-pattern</xpath> 
             <operation>add</operation>

    But I have the same error. The <>url-patter item is not added correctly to the virtual directory mapping tag.

    It is supposed to work. Someone has done this before? or is this a bug of the deployment plan.

  • How can I change the base station Airport of NAT mode?

    I'm trying to set up an Airport base station and stuck because I have the following message is displayed, but no idea how do what he asks...

    Status is showing as Double NAT and then asking me to move on to the base station in bridge DHCP/NAT mode.

    But where do I do this?

    Thank you

    It can be difficult to get the router to bridge sometimes... but if all goes well... Click on the airport icon in airport utility and then click on edit.

    Go to the network tab and change DHCP and NAT to bridge.

    Click Update at the bottom of the page... Then, everything should be good.

    If you are having problems follow these steps.

    Reset factory airport and then do a manual installation. I recommend that you connect with ethernet which is much more reliable, but your MBPr is not the most important network port that exists... Although there is a bolt of lightning at low cost for the ethernet card.
