Setting adobe indexes remotely as an admin

I have 10 index paths that I need to set up on potentially over 1,000 workstations, with varying versions of Adobe Acrobat Pro and Adobe Acrobat Reader.  I need to automate this task, and do it remotely as a network admin.  I know that the indexes can be set by importing a registry key into HKEY_CURRENT_USER.  The problem is that HKEY_CURRENT_USER changes based on who is logged on to the machine, so I cannot do a registry push to a sub-key of HKCU.  I could put a batch file that will do it in each user’s startup folder, but I don’t want to overwrite any index paths that the user may have entered on their own.  Is there a way to add indexes for all users of a PC?  Is it possible to have the software look at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE for indexes as well as HKEY_CURRENT_USER ?

    What is easiest way to set up a remote network between countries online?
    My main Mac is in England, UK and I'm spending time in the USA with my Mac laptop for 3 months. I'm in the USA right now, but neighbour in the UK has keys to my apartment so he can go in there and follow my instructions.
    How can I access my Mac back in England via my Mac laptop in the USA as there are files on my UK computer that I need to transfer back/forth while I'm here in America.
    I know there are things like Log-me-In as in per link below, but I don't think you need things like this on the Mac do you, isn't there an easy way to set something like this up via the Mac's OS?
    https://secure.logmein.com/welcome/access/fasteasy/2/?wt.srch=1&originid=4373&ut pk=log%20me%20in&destination=/welcome/access/fasteasy/2/
    Any advice on the easiest way for me to get this set up finally would be great as I just can't figure out the most straight forward way of doing this.
    Thanks a ton all.

    Is there any chance of being able to set up and use something such as
    the Apple Remote Desktop in these computers? Sure, there is a matter
    of setting up the computer on the far end, including any update to the OS
    and having the Apple Remote Desktop client side ready and able.
    And then having (owning) the ARD software within the computer you have
    there while traveling so as to contact and control the remote computer.
    This should be capable of allowing you to move files between the Macs
    but may be cumbersome without planning ahead; before traveling away.

    While this is not exactly a network in one sense, it would allow you to see
    and control the other Mac at some distance; depending on IP connection
    bandwidth and other preparation before leaving the home computer. A
    backup power supply and other matters would be recommended so you
    won't have a hung computer or grid issues while at a distance, for example.
    {And this does not sound so easy when away from the remote computer to me.}
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How do I set cursor.index to anywhere in the graph array?

    I am using LV 8.5.1 and feeding an XY graph with an X-Y array of data. Only a section of the array is displayed on the graph. I have a cursor (single-plot).
    I would like to set Cursor.Index property node of the cursor associated with the plot to the maximum index value of the graphed array regardless of the XScale range. I don't seem to be able to do it. I cannot set it beyond a certain number. When I rescale the graph I have a new maximum number. Is this what should happen?
    To get around this, I am momentarily setting the XScale.ScaleFit property to 1, which then allows me to set Cursor.Index to maximum (I then immediately reduce my scale range appropriately). I am having to do this before every occurrence of setting the Cursor.Index in case the new setting exceeds the currently allowed maximum value. Just seems a bit clunky.
    Thanks for any help.

    This is no longer a problem. My data is too big to feasibly be fed into a graph so am having to chop it up and use my own index pointer.

  • How can I set 'Adobe PDF printer' as one of my printer choices?

    I've given it half an hour. Can't seem to figure out how I can set 'Adobe PDF printer' as one of my printer options. I'm not sure if I need to download an Adobe file, and what folder I might need to place it in, and if I also need to add a specific driver.
    I'm trying to create a PDF file that printers and outfits like www.lulu.com will accept. Printing an MS Word document via 'Adobe PDF printer' will allow me, I'm told, to produce a suitable PDF file.
    Ideally I'm producing the original document in Pages - but I've been told by printers and lulu.com et. al. that no one out there likes PDF's produced by Pages ("not professional").
    Any suggestions you might have would be most appreciated...

    I downloaded the Lulu Adobe PDF joboptions file ... but it didn't come with any instructions on how to install or use it. I just have the file. I opened it with a double click and got Adobe Distiller - and I can 'see' what the settings are, but I'd love to understand how to install it so it becomes a selection when I export from Pages.
    Forget the Lulu instruction about double click to install. Quit Acobat Distiller and Acrobat Pro. Move the Lulu joboptions file to the Adobe PDF Settings folder. The path to it is:
    HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe PDF/Settings/
    or
    HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings/
    You're in the right folder when you see other joboptions files already in the Settings folder.
    Next, launch Pages and open your document.
    From the File menu, select Page Setup. In that window, select Adobe PDF 7 for "Format for," choose your paper size, orientation and scale % and click OK.
    From the File menu, select Print
    In the Print window, be sure the Printer is Adobe PDF 7
    Click on Layout for a pop down list and select PDF Options
    To the right of "Adobe PDF Settings" click for a pop up list and select Lulu

  • I tried to set up a remote desktop between my macmini and my work computer.  I hit cancel and now the Remote Desktop will not close.  I cannot shut down my computer either.  How do you close a non-responsive application.  I have tried everything!

    I tried to set up a remote desktop connection between my MacMini and my work computer.  It was not working so I hit cancel, but then the big black screen of death came up and will not go a way.  I cannot close my computer nor quit the remote desktop connection.  How do you close a non-responsive application?  By the way, I am new to Mac and it is not as simple as hitting the Control, Alt, Delete.  Please help.

    Try ( alt + cmd + esc ).  Gives you a menu of running applications, and a chance to "Force Quit".

  • How to set adobe acrobat 9 pro as pdf default program on mac snow leopard OS?

    how to set adobe acrobat 9 pro as pdf default program on mac snow leopard OS?

    I say to highlight more than one if you can because if the PDF you highlight was made by using Acrobat, it will change all PDF's made by Acrobat but if you have one made by some other product, it may not change them to open with Acrobat.
    So in other words, at some point you may have to do it to a PDF made by some other product.

    What's the problem?
    Any help in finding a solution is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Installed AcrobatXI PRO 11.0.09  on seven computers and laptops. Two of them gives an error when you try to save a document in WORD, EXCEL, Power Point, or when exporting to... error: Save failed to process this document. No File was created.
    But all good saves in the format of TXT and jpg.
    I have uninstalled and restored and re-installed and updated and registry cleaned and removed using the special utility Cleaner Tool for Acrobat, but nothing helps.
    On one notebook with Windows 8.1 and Microsoft office 2013, on another laptop with Windows 7 and Microsoft office 2010, the same problem, although there are computers with Windows 7 and Microsoft office 2010 and everything works.
    Tell me where to find the problem and how to solve it.
    Thank you.

  • Set Adobe Professional as Default PDF Viewer

    Is there a way to set Adobe Professional as my default pdf viewer instead of my Adobe Reader?  I know there was a setting somewhere that I changed to accomplish this before, but I can't find it again.

    No need to uninstall. The setting you're talking about is under Edit -
    Preferences - General, if I'm not mistaken.

  • How do I set Adobe Reader XI so that a saved pdf will be saved in the last folder saved?

    When I save a group of PDF files, I want them all saved in the same folder.  How do I configure so that each fille will be saved in the last folder that was used to save, rather than having to browse for the save folder each time?

    I am replying to my own question. I learned that if you right click when trying to open a PDF, you are asked which app you wish to use to open the file. If you click on Get Info, instead of choosing an app, you get this great information box which gives you the option to set Adobe Reader as your default app for PDF files. It even allows you to change all the pdf files you already have to Adobe Files. Yay.

  • How can i reuse same variables that i create using c:set var="index" /

    hi all,
    please some one helpme!!!!!!
    how can i reuse same variable that i create using
    <c:set var="index" value="${0}"/>
    cause later in the program i use index to do some condition and based on that i increment ...
    so for example if i say...
    <c:if test="${index==0}">
    <c:set var="index" value="${index+1}"/>
    </c:if>
    will it be like
    if(index==0)
    index++;
    can i do like i did be4. if not what do i need to do to reuse. cause i use the variable atleast 5 time and its keep changing on diff condition level.

    Have you tried it?
    It should work, provided you are on the same page.
    The c:set tag creates the variable in pageScope by default.
    If you forward to another JSP you need to set the scope to be "request" so that it is still available.
