Support single installation
so i am not sure to install in my local system.

Type in the domain that you will be using on your live site. You are still allowed to install on your localhost as it is for testing purposes. The extension doesn't deactivate once you have installed it for the first time ;)

Shopify: Testing on Localhost in windows

I've been trying for a while now to find any solution to try and test shopify themes on localhost so I don't screw up a live site I'm going to be maintaining. The only thing I can even remotely find is Vision, but it's only for Mac OS. I can download the theme I need, but I can't seem to find out a way to get it to load through localhost. Any ideas? Or is this a fruitless search?
For at least 5 years all the cool kids have been developing themes using newer options like for example the lightweight Ruby scripts in the serve gem as one example. Or using any static site generator with something like Pow. IMHO it is a very last resort to use WAMP or LAMP for any kind of theme generation development cycle. Not least because theme generation does NOT require any database.
Its not what your asking for, but its a nice alternative / plugin if you use Sublime Text Editor:

You can create a developers account here: http://www.shopify.com/partners for creating 'test' stores.
This allows you to edit the files locally and they are pushed live to your test store.

WP7 - selling extensions

I'm trying to create some application for Windows Phone >= 7.1
During plannin my work and specyfiong technical requirements I've come across one problem.
I wan't to have free application with basic functionality. And then it should be extendable with some non-free extensions (dlls?, databases?, SaaS?)
Is it possible at the moment to use some MS api/app/etc. to be able to publish such extensions and sell them? What is the best way to do this if there is more than one solution?
Thank you for any help.
As of right now (June 2012), in-app purchases are not supported. Your only choices, then are being a paid app and supporting trial mode.
The only way you can do this at present is to handle the additional purchases yourself.
You'd have to set up a website which customers could create an account on and purchase extensions through, then have them also log into your app with those account details to determine what additional data to download or functions to enable.
You could be smart and include the website functionality into your app with a browser control. Take a look at the Amazon Kindle app for an example of how they accomplish it.

install bug tracking system redmine on webspace

I just started using redmine. I installed it on my local machine (Windows7 64-Bit). But I want to use it with other people. We don't have a server, but I have a webspace I can access via ftp. Part of the webspace is a MySQL-database, I could also use for redmine.
Is there a way to move (or install) redmine on that webspace?
I've e.g. installed Joomla by uploading the Joomla files via ftp. Than I could configure Joomla through a web interface. That is something I would hope for redmine as-well.
Thanks.
It depends.™
If your webspace supports ruby/ruby on rails, it might work. Sadly, most webspace offerings only support PHP.
You could check out Heroku if you are looking for a managed solution (they have free plan which might be enough for your needs) or get a small (v)server. However, you should know what you are doing if you're going to set up your own server.
You might wanna check out plan.io too, they offer hosted Redmine.

Magento - Multistore implementation

Im looking at switching to Magento for a project im going to start.
I was wondering if i could get a bit of advice regarding the Multi-Store implementation.
Does this allow seperate admin users for each store?
Would you recommend this implementation for a small hosted ecommerce application?
Cheers,
Warning - as I'm sure you know, don't start a project with Magento unless you are willing to put a lot of time into it.
That said, to my knowledge the Multistore setup allows one to run multiple stores with the same administration section. You should be able to create multiple admin users - but restricting them to a store isn't available in normal old community edition. It might be available in one of the pay editions.
That said, this extension may do the trick for you: http://www.aitoc.com/en/magentomods_advanced_permissions.html. Note: I've never personally tried this extension and so cannot vouch for it.
Edit
I realized that I never answered your second question.
Though Magento is a very powerful platform with a lot of features, I would not recommend using it for a small hosted ecommerce application. For a small hosted ecommerce store I would consider running Wordpress with the WP-E-Commerce plugin. Wordpress is great for managing website content - and WP-E-Commerce has a lot of features and is consistently being developed and improved upon.
If you are going to go with Magento then I would reccomend using Nexcess hosting. They specialize in hosting Magento and their Magento plans are already optimized for running Magento websites.
enterprise (and maybe professional) edition has the feature you are talking about, separating admin users by store. If you need to restrict that in admin level with community edition you can set up multiple software versions from same development branch with different databases (git is awesome on version tool for that). Lots of different ways to do so if Enterprise is out of reach
regarding of performance i guess you will need a powerful VPS or dedicated machine if you are serious about it and as the traffic grows you then should think about load balancing. Look for magento dedicated host companies for that and it won't run in $5 or $20 per month hosts
You asked:
Does Magento allow seperate admin users
for each store?
The free version (Community version) of Magento doesn't have this feature. There will be a single admin.
But the admin can create user and roles. So, some users can be assigned only to product and category addition page. And some users can only be assigned to Sales part.
Separate admin for each store: This feature is present in Enterprise version of Magento but its cost is too high. At present, it Starts at $12,990 USD/yr
In my opinion, using or not using Magento depends upon the functionality you are searching for your shop.
If you need lots of features and functionalities for your Shop then go for Magento.
If you just want general functions like displaying product, adding to cart, and checkout (that's all), then you may search for any other open source shopping cart.
You may try Oscommerce. I have not used it much but I think there is a Oscommerce module for multi admin login for each store.

How can I best learn SiteMinder? Was handed a site that integrates with it, and need to maintain it

We have SiteMinder configured in our environment and I've been given an ASP.NET website to support.
Where do I begin to learn SiteMinder? I have some background in ADFS, but need to translate my skills to this product.
Check out the bookshelf documentation on support.ca.com
CA Education also offers some courses and new certifications, but you can probably learn just as well through the docs.
I would recommend reading all the documentation.
I would also recommend purchasing a VMWare workstation license and getting an isolated installation of SiteMinder, AD, the POlicy Server and a protected web server on the VM. that will give you a nice sandbox on which to play, just remember to take a snapshot after you get it all installed.
Instead of purchasing VMWare, you can use Oracle VirtualBox to run a CentOS VM (CentOS essentially the free version of RedHat).
The newest versions of SiteMinder (CA Single Sign On) only support RedHat Linux and Microsoft Windows.
