Anyone have accurate instructions on modifying the default user template in Lion 10.7.4 ?

Never had an issue in the past...not until Lion.
After I create my local user, and modify program behavior, dock and desktop wallpaper I copy the contents of the home folder (including hidden folders) to the English.lproj folder.
My new users are not only not getting the settings, their home folder is empty.  No documents, music, or anything.

Google modifying user template site:apple.com and peruse the hits.
Also, see http://http://www.apple.com/osx/server/resources/documentation.html for detailed into.

  • Pros and Cons for replacing the default user template?

    Hi,
    since I've installed a new server, I don't want to make any mistake,
    If I replace the default user template (*.iproj) by my own, is it really a bad idea?
    Am I better modifying the existing one (.plist) even if it is more work?
    Thanks

    If I replace the default user template (*.iproj) by my own, is it really a bad idea?
    While you can modify the default User Template, it is not a recommended practice to do so. Since you are managing clients via MCX, anything that you set in WGM for user preferences will be added to the user's profile at login. If you have a need for some specific application preferences that need to be added for users, configure the application on a workstation as a local user and then import the .plist into WGM. Anything else -folders or files- that an application creates in the local user prefs folders, that may be needed, can usually be placed in the /Library/Preferences, /Library/Application Support, and /Library/Managed Preferences folders on the clients so that users have access to them.

  • How can I modify the default styles or create new ones in pages for IPad?

    Hi, I have recently bought the pages for IPad App. It is nice, but I wonder How to modify the default styles or create My own ones...Can anyone help me?

    Unfortunately, pages on the iPad does not support editing styles. The mac version is an extremely powerful piece of software (I know someone who has recently completed their PhD thesis in it), but the iPad version has only a fraction of the features.
    The only word processor for the iPad I'm aware of that fully provides support for styles is UX Write - see http://www.uxproductivity.com (disclaimer: I've been involved with the development of this app). This is designed for the sort of high-end professional authoring tasks that you can do with Pages for Mac. Customisable styles are one of the most fundamental aspects of this app, and it provides extensive formatting options and the ability to define your own, new, custom styles.

  • Can I merge or combine 2 "album artwork" folders? I have saved music onto an external server from 2 computers but the artwork that I have manually imported remains in the default folder in the music/itunes/album artwork folder on the respective PCs. Thx

    Can I merge or combine 2 "album artwork" folders? I have saved music onto an external server from 2 computers but the artwork that I have manually imported remains in the default folder in the music/itunes/"album artwork" folder on their respective PCs.
    i.e. artwork uploaded on one PC won't apppear on the other PC because it is saved locally...
    I'm confident that i won't beable to just merge the 2 because thy'll have the same folder names.
    On the same note: can I have iTunes create these files on the external server/Hard drive also so that either computer can use them at the same time?
    (like I have my library- can the other files be saved remotely)
    Thx

    i'm using iTunes 10 BTW

  • I am trying to update my software on my iPad 1. I am synched to my MacBook Pro. I have been instructed to click the Summary button.Where is it?

    I am trying to update my software on my iPad. I am synched to my MacBookPro and I have been instructed to click the " Summary button". Where is it?

    If the iPad is connect to the Mac and iTunes is running, you have to click on the iPad name under the device heading first in the sidebar on the left and then you will see the Summary Tab at the top of the iTunes window on the right. Then click on the Summary Tab at the top.
    If you don't see the sidebar in iTunes 11 - go to View>Show Sidebar in the iTunes menu at the top of the screen.

  • How do you modify the default Execute thread count in Weblogic Server 9.2?

    How do you modify the default Execute thread count in Weblogic Server 9.2?
    How can you tune the starting number of weblogic.ExecuteThread on server startup and/or set minimum number?
    Is there an option from the console?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks

    Self tuning will automatically manage the threads but however you can still control the min and max by adding the min and max values for each instance either directly adding in config.xml or through JVM settings
    1) Modifying the config.xml
    Just add the following line(s) to each server definition :
    <server>
    <name>AdminServer</name>
    <self-tuning-thread-pool-size-min>100</self-tuning-thread-pool-size-min>
    <self-tuning-thread-pool-size-max>200</self-tuning-thread-pool-size-max>
    </server>
    2) Adding some JVM parameters
    It's safer the following way :
    add the following option in your command line : -Dweblogic.threadpool.MinPoolSize=100

  • How do you change the default User in Windows 7 on a non-RAIDed 4 disk setup?

    Hi.
    I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit on Darling my new machine, which has a four-disk setup without RAID, like this:
    SSD OCZ -OS, Programs (C:)
    WD 2002FEAX - Media Projects (D:)
    WD 1002FAEX - Pagefile, Media Cache (E:)
    WD 1002FAEX - Previews, Exports (F:)
    This setup, and because it’s unRAIDed (four separate disks), created the User file in the OS disk, right under the Programs (x86) folder, which at times causes files, which are not programs, to automatically be saved in the User file that's in the Programs disk, when in fact Programs disk is NOT meant for storage.
    Further, I cannot save stuff in My Documents because that directory leads the files (that I am saving) to the User folder in the OS disk, forcing me to navigate out of there and into an alternative disk, which is time consuming, more so than if i had a directory leading to D disk.
    So, I am wondering, can anyone help me change my directory to establish the default User folder in any folder other than C?
    Or, if can someone refer me to Windows 7 tutorials, resourses, that are a tad more than Dummy level.
    I have heard that changing around the directory as such can mess with the OS, and though not at Dummy level, I’m quite new to PC and profusely insecure about making changes to Darling at all.
    Thanks.

    Hi folks.
    I would like to update you about what happened regarding my wish to move the User location to another hard disk. Heeding your warning, i did NOT attempt that, but rather, moved the location of the My Documents folder in my Library, from its default place on (SSD) disk C:/ (which is the default location because that's where i installed Windows 7,) to another disk -  D:/ called "Media Projects".
    Here is how my directory looked before i made the change, my three hard disks were outside the Library directory that's on my SSD (Programs disk):
    (I did that by right-clicking the My Documents folder in the left column of a browser window, to access the Location tab.)
    What this did is, it put driver D:/ under Documents, which is under Library, see picture, which now enables saving documents quickly, by going from my Library directly to my D drive, however it eliminated the "My Documents" folder/possibility all together from the left-column list of folders in the Windows Explorer browser pane.
    I am now trying to do the same with Music, Pictures, and Videos, i.e. to move them to D drive, but am unable to do so because right-clicking those icons in the directory does not produce the Location tab in Properties panel, and nor does right-clicking inside the files themselves.
    Similarly, right-clicking Downloads, which i also want to have residing in my D drive, does NOT produce a Location tab in properties pane, though it does seem possible to change the directory manually...see picture.....but am wary....
    I am still monitoring my new system, and will see if and how this change effects my system's performance.
    Thanks.

  • Using copyprofile to customize the default user profile

    Well to get to the problem I'll just explain what I do, which doesn't work.
    1. I install windows 8.1 pro (x64) on a test-pc.
    2. After installation I press cntrl shift f3 to get into audit mode.
    3. I install all software/drivers etc. I also place shortcuts and change the background.
    4. I insert my usb, which contains a file called "unattend.xml" in which this is written:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend">
        <settings pass="specialize">
            <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
                <CopyProfile>true</CopyProfile>
            </component>
        </settings>
        <cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:e:/usb/windows%207%20en%208/win81pro/sources/install.wim#Windows 8.1 Pro (x64)" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" />
    </unattend>
    5. After that I use CMD and use this command: C:\windows\system32\sysprep\sysprep /oobe /generalize /shutdown /unattend:F:\unattend.xml
    6. when it is done working and turns off, I turn it back on and walk through the oobe. After that my shortcuts and background are standard windows 8.1 and not the ones I used.
    Can anyone see what I did wrong? I can't seem to figure it out. Thanks!
    Btw: This unattend.xml file is created with windows system image manager of the same install.wim which is used to install that OS.
    Note: If I generalize a pc after an installation, doesn't that cancel the activation? So when I bring it to a customer he needs to fill in the activation key? 

    Hi,
    After the step 5 (I mean after we customize the default user profile and reference PC sutts down), generally as I know, we should then capture image, you can boot into Windows PE and then capture the Windows installation by using DISM.
    See full guide in the link below
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-in/library/hh825135.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
    The article also contains some conditions in which user profile settings aren't successfully copied, such as you can not use a domain account, there are no additional user accounts other than the built-in administrator account that you configured,, etc and
    sysprep will remove all the security settings of your Windows including windows activation.

  • What is the default user name and password for oracle databse 10g

    Hi: gurus, I just recently installed the oracle 10g personal edition and trying to log on to the enterprise manger, but can't figure it out the user name and password, can some one help me and tell me what is the default user name and password to logon to the oracle instance. BTW during the installation I choose two passowrds one for the schema and one for the global database orcl. I wonder will I be using one of these passwords. Still I don't have any clue for the "User Name".
    thanks

    system/manager and sys/change_on_install are still valid default passwords when database is manually created. If DBCA was used, passwords will be those defined at creation time inside DBCA.
    In case passwords have been forgotten, those can be reset:
    From an OS commnad prompt, set ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME and PATH environment variables, just to make sure you are pointing to the right Oracle Home installation, and issue:
    OS> sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL> alter user sys identified by yourNewSysPassword;
    SQL> alter user system identified by yourNewSystemPassword;
    And you're done with it.

  • Apply the default user logon picture to all users

    Hi
    I applied gpo "apply the default user logon picture to all users"
     Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Control Panel\User Accounts\Apply the default user logon picture to all users
    C:\programdata\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\user.bmp  --> renamed my company log to user.bmp.
    Taken backup of old user.bmp.
    But policy is not working.
    Environment:
    Windows Server 2008 R2
    Clients:Windows 7 and Windows 8

    Hi S.Vijay Kumar,
    Based on my understanding, the GPO which configured the
    Apply the default user logon picture to all users would not apply successfully. What’s more, you have customized the default user logon picture
    %ProgramData%\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\user.bmp. Right?
     Firstly, please check if the scope of this GPO and the setting of Filtering are correct.
    Secondly, please follow the steps below to check if the GPO is applied to these Windows XP clients:
    Click Start, type rsop.msc in the search box to access
    Resultant set of policy.
    Check if the GPO is applied to these clients and the setting of the GPO is correct.
    In addition, it would be helpful for future troubleshooting if you could help to collect the following information:
    Did the GPO fail to apply for all the computers or only some computers?
    Can you set the user.bmp as the user logon picture
    manually?

    The default user account picture is stored here.
    C:\programdata\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\user.bmp
    It should just be a matter have copying the picture you want to that location and over writing what is there.
    or....
    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Control Panel\User Accounts\Apply the default user logon picture to all users
    You can also configure this by a registry setting;
     [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
      UseDefaultTile = 1
    The picture that you configure, will not be loaded until the user account will actually be created on the pc. Meaning the first time a >new< user will log on to a pc, they will have no picture shown at all using their login screen (this is default
    behavior). Same will occur if you enable the policy don't display last user name. However, once they log in the picture will be shown in the start menu, and if they lock their pc the image will also be shown
