Reader 11 - Disable prompt for updates when installing?

I have used the Customization Wizard to customize all of our Acrobat 8,9,10,11 installs of both Pro and Std without any problems. But when I customize the Reader 11 install so that it does not download updates, the setup program still prompts me with the question about updating. I have tried 11.0.0 and 11.0.2 with similar behavior and would like to make sure the installs are consistent across the organization by not prompting the installer with this question. (Yes, I have verified the Disable Product Updates is checked.)
How can I banish this dialog from the Reader install?

I would ask why you need to allow installation in UI mode, but assume that you have valid reasons for that.
Since you are using CW, you can open Direct Edit view in CW, go to InstallUISequence table, find SelectARMMode record and change it's condition to be NEVER

Disable "check for updates" iTunes AND allow update iPad iPhone

In an enterprise environment we followed http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2102 to disable the "check for updates" in iTunes, although this is preventing users from updating thier iPad and iPhone devices as well.
How would we manage the Windows computer software (disable check for updates) but allow users to manage (update) thier own portable devices that require iTunes to update?

No. For now we have decided to perform the default install for our users with specific instructions not to update when Apple informs them of an update. When they see the pop up notification of an Apple update, they are to open the SCCM (SMS) "Run Advertised Programs" where we have packaged the new version to install with Admin rights.

How can I set Firefox update preferences via script so I can configure our 200 Macs to disable checking for updates?

Most of our Mac users do not have admin privileges. So when they get alerted about Firefox updates, they don't have the ability to install them. We would like to disable Firefox for checking for updates, then push out updates from our software server as needed. We have about 200 machines to configure. Is there a way to disable checking for updates via script (bash or Applescript)? And if so, is there a guide or web site to explain the process?

Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values.
Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

Getting Prompt for Credentials When Opening InfoPath 2010 Form in Sharepoint 2010

I have a domain user who runs Office 2010 x32 and uses a Sharepoint 2010 site daily. Lately a specific page on that site has been randomly giving prompts for credentials when opening existing documents and creating new ones. The process can be most easily
replicated by opening the new document template in Infopath by going to Documents -> New in the ribbon bar of the SP page. Most of the time the Windows credentials for the user are passed to Infopath/Sharepoint automatically (which is normal), but on the
fourth or fifth attempt to create a new form, the prompt appears. The user can still enter the credentials and open the blank template form, but a prompt should not appear. The user is also the administrator for that page, so I'm thinking it's not a permissions
issue.
The user is running IE 9 on Windows 7 Pro x64. I have performed the following:
Reset advanced IE settings and all user cache data
Cleared cached Sharepoint credentials in Windows credential manager
Re-applied group policy for the machine using gpupdate /force
Logged in with a clean temporary profile
Logged in to another domain account using the user's Sharepoint credentials
Cleared Infopath cache
Re-installed Office 2010 x32
The problem only occurs only on this particular machine. There are no Sharepoint or authentication-related errors or warnings in the application and system event logs. There are also no error messages on-screen when the prompt appears. I also considered
the possibility of this being a performance related issue in the case that maybe Infopath was taking too long to start, causing the credential pass-through process to time out and fall back to a prompt. I ran disk cleanup, deleted some temporary files, and
checked for excessive CPU/memory load. I didn't find any issues and doing these things did not help.
I'm convinced there is another setting somewhere in Windows that is causing this. Interestingly it always happens after four or five attempts, never the first time. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hi Titan, this sounds like an IE security setting issue. Things to do:
1. In Internet options>Security>Local Intranet, make sure "Enable Protected Mode" is not selected.
2. Under Sites>Advanced, add https://*.sharepoint.com (and make sure "Require server verification..." is not checked).
3. Under Security>Custom Level, scroll all the way to the bottom and make sure "Automatic logon with current user..." is checked.

How to disable checking for updates for Shockwave plug-in?

SOS: how can I disable checking for updates (and reporting
that there is one) for a Shockwave object on a web page?
I have a client with an older Shockwave version, and it's a
royal pain for each user to be told there's a newer veriosn and do
you want to download...
Any help gratefully received.

I have zero experience of macs.
Can't you install Silverlight and the plugin for all users rather than a specific one?
I would guess/hope/expect there'd then be one plist file for everyone?

SharePoint prompting for password when saving word document

Saving a word document back to SharePoint always prompts for credentials.
I am the administrator for a SharePoint farm. We have enabled kerberos, and added the portal to the intranet zone in Internet Explorer by group policy. Most of the time this limits the amount of password prompts our customers see (including viewing the portal
in a browser, and opening documents); however, we are still getting the prompt for credentials when trying to save a word document back to SharePoint.
Here are some details: - SharePoint 2010 - Word 2010 - Kerberos enabled - Portal added to intranet zone in IE - Checkbox for passing automatic credentials enabled
Can anyone help? Is there something I've missed? Is this prompt just unavoidable?

Hi,
Internet Explorer uses the Web Client service when you use Internet Explorer to access a
WebDAV resource. The Web Client Service uses Windows HTTP Services (WinHTTP) to perform the network I/O to the remote host. WinHTTP sends user credentials only in response to requests that occur on a local intranet site.
However, WinHTTP does not check the security zone
settings in Internet Explorer to determine whether a Web site is in a zone that lets credentials be sent automatically.
Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press
ENTER.
Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters
On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click
Multi-String Value.
Type AuthForwardServerList, and then press ENTER.
On the Edit menu, click Modify.
In the Value data box, type the URL of the server that hosts the Web share, and then click
OK.
Note You can also type a list of URLs in the
Value data box. For more information, see the "Sample URL list" section in this article.
Exit Registry Editor.
After this registry entry is created, the WebClient service will read the entry value. If the client computer tries to access a URL that matches any of the expressions in the list, the user credential will be sent successfully to authenticate
the user, even if no proxy is configured.
Note You have to restart the WebClient service after you modify the registry.

How do I completely disable checking for "updates"?

Unable to stop Flashplayer 11.5 from prompting for update

Hi, I support about 3000 machines worldwide. We use Windows 7 x64, with IE10. In my base image I Installed Flashplayer ActiveX 11.5.502.146, using the full EXE installer and the switches -install -au2 (i do not want any updates done or users to get any prompts for updates). The MMS.cfg created using these switches shows 2 lines:
AutoUpdateDisable=1
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0
and is located in the x64 path c:\windows\syswow64\macromed\flash
In the Flash Player settings manager, the advanced tab shows the radio button selection "Never check for updates (not recommended) is selected (this is greyed out because all of our users run under standard user permissions). Installation runs fine and the product works fine in IE, the problem I have is that my users are still prompted by the Update Adobe Flashplayer message on a weekly basis.
I looked at the admin guide for 11.5, and I believe my settings are right. Why am I still getting this prompt? Does mms.cfg have to be in the x86 path as well? Is there something with standard user rights as it relates to adobe updates? Should I install this from the MSI?
I can't update to 11.7 right now as we are getting ready to start rolling out my image and don't want to make changes at this time. I'm looking for any input on what I may be doing wrong that I continue to see update prompts. Thanks in advance for any information, and I'd be happy to provide additional info if I left out something.

Crystal Reports prompting for creds when viewed from BO 4

The environment:
Business Objects Enterprise 4, sp2 patch 8
SAP ECC 6.0, kernel 701, sup. pkg. lvl 137
This is a new BOE 4 installation on a test system. The BOE installation has been configured to use Windows AD authentication with SSO. When I run a Crystal Report that is based on SAP ECC data, I am prompted for credentials. So I used the following document to configure BOE for SSO to DB:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/HowtosetupSSOagainstSAPBWinSBOBI4.0forLDAPusers
This didn't fix the problem. SAP ECC reports in BOE still prompt for creds when viewed. SAP Authentication is verifiably working, but I'm not sure if SSO to DB is working. One thing I've noticed is that when I log in to BOE using SAP authentication and view the report, I'm not prompted for creds. In BOE I added my Windows AD acct as an alias in my SAP acct, but I may have either done this incorrectly, or there may be something I need to do in addition.
question 1: Is there an easy way to verify if SSO to DB is working correctly?
question 2: In CMC --> Authentication --> SAP --> Entitlement Systems --> User Name, I'm assuming that this is an SAP user name. What roles/profiles does this account need? Should it be a dialog acct?
question 3: Our ECC system is configured to use SNC. Do I need to configure SNC in BOE for SSO to DB to work?
question 4: I added my Windows AD user as an alias on my SAP user record. I'm not sure this is correct... can someone verify?
Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.

Thanks, Ingo. Once I got snc configured, everything began working wonderfully.
I used this document as a guide:

Outlook 2010 prompts for profile when 3rd party application tries to send mail

Hi,
I have been having an issue with Outlook 2010 and our in-house MIS system. The system uses Outlook to send mail out, and it works perfectly fine if Outlook is running at the time.
There is a problem though when Outlook is not running and the programs calls Outlook to send the mail, Outlook will display the "Choose Profile" dialog. Outlook basically launches in the background with the little gear icon in the system tray.
Is there any way to get rid of the select profile screen? Everything is already selected appropriately under Control Panel>Mail, Outlook does not prompt for profile when launched normally.
Thanks

It all depends on the code you are using to initiate Outlook.
It might be better to ask this in the developer forum down the hall:

Do i have to disable restrictions for updating ios6

I heard that you have to disable restrictions for updating ios6, cause you wont be able to sync with the computer (something like that). But what if i use icloud?

Nope. Just connect it to iTunes and proceed with the update over connect the iPod to a Wi-Fi network and do an OTA (over-the-air) update instead.

STSNavigate() still prompting for credentials when trying to open a document

Here is my scenario. We have setup a public facing site the utilizes a Web Application that searches a internal SharePoint 2010 site. The web app utilizes the SharePoint QueryService to search the site. We provide credentials to the service as the SharePoint
site is not an anonymous site (although if the QueryService worked with the site being anonymous that would satisfy our requirements). The Web server allows anonymous access to the web app through IIS. I have found that utilizing the STSNavigate() function
SUPPOSED to allow the document to be downloaded or opened without prompting for credentials. I modified my search results link to include the function on click and low and behold it still prompts for credentials the same way it would if the url just had the
link to the file. I am on a time clock here and I am running to the end of my rope. Any suggestions?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that STSNavigate() still prompt for credentials when trying to open a document.
Per my knowledge, if you try to open an Office file directly from a remote place, Office wants to know who the hell you are. If the server responses with the
Microsoft Office Protocol Discovery or a
FrontPage Protocol or a
WebDav Protocol
Then it ask you for credentials.
As a workaround, I recommend to “init.js” located in \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033 folder.
You need to add this it:
STSNavigate(ctx.HttpRoot + "/_layouts/download.aspx?SourceUrl=" + o);return false;

No prompt to update when Flash Player Settings Manager is set to check for updates automatically

My understading of http://forums.adobe.com/message/3562892#3562892 (March 2011) is that when an outdated version of the Player is used on Windows, the prompt to update should occur after the next restart of the operating system.
So, when http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ in Safari for Windows shows an outdated version 10.x of the Player:
I restart Windows
I log on
I wait a few minutes.
Problem
Usually, no matter how long I wait, there is no prompt to update; Flash Player Settings Manager continues to show an outdated plug-in alongside a greater version of the ActiveX item.
I see this problem with multiple computers running Windows XP and Windows 7.
Any suggestions?

Flash Player checks for updates every 7 days. The NCP doesn’t change this. Where the user in that post is getting confused is that only after Flash Player detected an update (on average 3.5 days after a new version is released), the dialog will appear after a restart.
