Add bookmarks and account pictures using WGM

My students access their accounts on an XServe running 10.4. I have set their default browser to be Safari (we sometimes use Firefox), and I would like to set certain bookmarks on their toolbar. Is there a way to do this using WGM?
Additionally, is there a way to set a user account picture other than the default silhouette? It would be helpful if each class had a different picture, but I haven't figured out to do this.
Thank you in advance for your infinite wisdom!
Nancy

So you have setup the accounts with Network Home Directories?
Or are they just logging into the local computer?
With Network Home directories, you can essentially let everyone have their own bookmamrks or manage ALL the settings and preferences for all users centrally through the Workgroup Manager. You might also want to post this question in the OS X Server forum under 'Installation, Setup and Migration' for Mac OS X Server 10.4

  • Cannot change lock screen, start screen and account picture

    I cannot change my lock screen, start screen and account picture on my windows 8 pro. my windows 8 pro is activated please please help me....

    Hi,
    As you said,your system was activated.
    So,I think this problem occurs when a required Registry key is missing in Windows 8. It might be deleted accidentally or intentionally by the user or it might be deleted by a 3rd party software.
    I suggest you refer to the following article to see if the issue was resolved.

  • Add bookmarks to pdf file using Excel VBA

    Good morning -
    I have, through internet searches, created an Excel macro that prints numerous workbooks to pdf, combines them into one file and prints that file.  I have been searching for the last piece, which is adding bookmarks, but have not had any luck getting any of it to work.  The following is the code that I am using to add the bookmarks -
    Dim avdoc, pddoc, app As Object
    Dim stFile As String
    Dim btitle As Boolean
    Dim PDBookmark As CAcroPDBookmark
    stFile = "D:\Test\Test.pdf"
    Set app = CreateObject("AcroExch.app")
    Set avdoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc")
    Set pddoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
    pddoc.Open stFile
    Set avdoc = pddoc.OpenAVDoc(stFile)
    Set PDBookmark = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDBookmark", "")
    app.MenuItemExecute ("NewBookmark")
    btitle = PDBookmark.SetTitle("Test Bookmark")
    This code does insert a bookmark on the first page of the document.  The bookmark title displays as Untitled instead of Test Bookmark as the code states.  Can someone answer the following questions -
    1.  Why is the code not changing the bookmark from Untitled to Test Bookmark, and
    2.  How would I nodify the above code to go to a certain page then enter the bookmark.
    All help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance for your time.

    Good morning Reinhard -
    Thanks you very much for the help.  I implemented as follows:
    1.  app.MenuItemExecute ("NewBookmark")
    btitle = PDBookmark.GetByTitle(pddoc, "Untitled")
    btitle = PDBookmark.SetTitle("Total Accessories / Hardgoods")
    I added the "btitle =" due to it erroring out.  However, when I step through the code and get to that line, I get the "Excel has encountered an error and needs to close" error.  Is there a reference that I'm missing that you know of?
    2.  I was able to find the code to get to a specific page number and it is working great.
    Thanks again for all of your assistance.

  • LR 1.3.1 strange behaviour: L key adds keywords and removes pictures from collection

    After updating to LR 1.3.1 yesterday I found a very strange behaviour that I cannot explain: While in the Library module and looking at a picture from a collection (in loupe mode) I cycle through the different light modes using the L key. Then suddenly (after several hits of the L key) a keyword is added (not always the same keyword) and at the same time an unknown number of pictures is removed from the collection. The keyword is not added to the picture I was currently viewing, but to another one from the same collection. This has not happened before and I have no idea what is going on. I can restore the collection by relaunching an older catalog but of course this does not solve the problem. Can anybody help?
    (PC, Win XP prof SP 2, 4 Gig RAM)

    It is possible that instead of hitting the l key, or perhaps within the same sequence of hits your are in fact accidentally hitting the k key.
    K is the shortcut for "Add shortcut keyword"
    Of course you would have had to set that particular keyword at some point and it does not explain the different keywords being assigned.
    Unless the alt key was involved somehow and you were rating the images with 1-9 numbers. That would account for different keywords being assigned and would seem arbitrary.
    To check: look at one or two of the images that you may have rated using a number key and then look at the keyword set the keyword came from. Press the alt key and a number from 1-9 will appear next to the keyword. If they match then thats the answer.
    If you weren't rating the images this way then.....??
    Perhaps there is a fault with the keyboard itself rather than the program.

  • Photo Booth and Account Picture no go?

    Believe it or not I just discovered Photo Booth on my new iMac. Just a question about how it works. After taking the picture and clicking on the image you have several options, send the image to an email, send the image to your iChat account, and send the picture to your Account preferences as your login picture. The first two options work as advertised, the last doesn't seem to work. I take the picture, click the image, and then click the Accounts option tab. According to the Photo Booth Help documents this should cause the Accounts preferences panel to open and make the photo your login image. When I click the Accounts tab nothing happens. If I actually open the Accounts preferences panel, click on the login image and select Edit... I can take the picture there and it works fine.
    Anyone else seeing this behavior? Has something changed with version 2.0 of Photo Booth?

    Well, how about this then? Can anyone confirm that they are able to add a picture to their Login account using the current version of Photo Booth (v2.0.2)?

  • How do I Add an email account that uses my personal server

    I have an Iphone 3GS and have been trying to add my regular email account that resides on a personal server. I put in the right incoming and outgoing info and then it says it can not contact my server. I am able to retrieve my email from the website mail2web.com so I know it lets emails be retrieved.
    I know that when I set up my outlook exchange on my computer the internet provider would not let me just enter my server but required I use the comcast smtp server. Is this the same with At&T.
    Help. This is driving me crazy.

    Something is missing or wrong in your settings. OR your server is only accessible via VPN.

    SMTP is for sending only; it shouldn't affect receiving. Some ISPs only allow access to their servers for sending if you are directly connected to their network. Others allow access from anywhere, but if they do you must enter a user ID and password even though the iPhone setting says "optional".

  • Why can't I get my old bookmarks and passwords back using the 'Old Firefox Data' folder?

    Hi,
    Ok.....
    I have just recovered my Samsung laptop back to the day I purchased it (for a fresh start)
    I have the 'Old Firefox Data' folder on an external hard drive that was created a few weeks ago when I refreshed Firefox
    I've tried this many times but with no luck what so ever:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recovering-important-data-from-an-old-profile
    I've re-installed Firefox 3 times
    I've created new profiles and deleted others
    2 Days down and I'm still can't get any of my bookmarks or passwords etc and for some reason when I create a new profile I can't find it as it's not in the location 'Profile Manager' says it is.
    I'm now total lost and getting stressed out as I really need this data.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your reply's.
    I've been able to restore/apply all of my data (bookmarks, passwords etc) on my girl friends computer without any issues at all, therefore it's not something I'm doing wrong.
    I've been so involved with trying to get my profile back on my computer I hadn't noticed that Firefox is not operating as it should, I've found:
    - I'm unable to view/open my profile folder from 'Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder' (when I click 'Show Folder' nothing happens) however when I go to 'C:\Users\AutoStar\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles' I can view the data.
    - I'm unable to save any bookmarks
    - Sometimes when I try to close a tab it will not close as such however once the 'x' is clicked I'm then unable to view the page but the tab still stays visible
    As I said I recovered the laptop back to the day I purchased it (for a fresh start) so Firefox was a fresh install I've also uninstalled and re-installed a few times now but the result is always the same.
    Any ideas?

  • When I click Add Bookmark the bookmark window takes a long time showing up and then starts appearing and disappearing.

    I click on Bookmarks in the Menu Bar. Then I scroll to Add Bookmark and click on that. Normally a Window appears allowing me to select where I want the new bookmark saved. Now this window takes a long time to appear if it ever does (sometimes I get tired of waiting). Then when I attempt to put my cursor arrow somewhere in this window, the window disappears. Then it starts appearing and disappearing when I move my cursor around.

    That is a problem with an AVG extension or toolbar (tavgp)
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Account picture keeps reverting

    Hi all!
    Since I've installed 10.7, I can't set my user account picture to one of my own photos.
    Each time I select my pict and click "set", it reverts to the original (that I want to change out of) after a few seconds.
    The picture I want to use is in my Pictures folder.
    The problem appears both in System Preferences > Users and Groups AND when editing my card through the Address Book.
    Thank you.

    I've had the same problem for SO long. I've looked here before, and I've changed the address book and account pictures and my iCloud account picture and address book in iCloud and in my phone. EVERYTHING.
    Then today I realised that my problem was being caused by a little setting I'd enabled in the Facebook for iPhone app. Basically, you can set the app (through friends, then this icon in the top right of an arrow) to sync your contacts' photos with those from Facebook so that you have up to date pictures of them.
    In those options, there's an option to 'replace existing photos' of contacts. It was turned on. BAD IDEA.
    Since my iCloud account has the same name as my Facebook account, the Facebook app was replacing my contact card info on my iPhone to my Facebook photo (which had been my account photo for a short while). Of course, this was syncing to my iCloud account and finally to my computer, changing my account picture to my Facebook photo. Changing it back on iCloud etc was reverted to the Facebook photo every time that I opened the Facebook app, which caused it to sync the contacts' photos on my phone with the friends list ones.
    That is why it is really variable how often the picture changes back, because it depends how long it's been since you last opened the Facebook app on your iPhone! Finally, I am SO GLAD that I managed to figure out the root of the problem. Turning off that 'replace existing photos' problem has fixed everything.
    I hope that this solves all of you guys' problems too!

  • Bookmarks and eBo

    I recently flashed my player to the 2.whatever code. It now 'forgets' where it was after 4 hours. I realize this was a requested change for conserving power. Actually, I liked the 24 hour setting better. Anyway, I listen to eBooks which sometimes 3 have 45 minute tracks in the playslist, sometimes there will be 200 5 minute tracks. My experience with bookmarks has not been the best. I am currently listening to a book with 98 5 minute tracks. Halfway through track 78 I set a bookmark and shut the player off for the night. In the morning I hopped into the car, resumed play from the bookmark and was amazed that after playing the remainder of the track it quit. I expected it to continue onto track 79. Is it possible to use bookmarks in conjunction with playlists. 3 zen micros, one with the headphone problem all of them about 3 years old Ed

  • "Add Bookmark" = expanded dropdown list

    When I want to add a Bookmark in Safari 3.0.4, I click on Bookmarks / Add Bookmark, and I get a little window asking where I want to keep this bookmark. If I click on the drop-down list arrows, a very lengthy, fully-expanded list of all my bookmark folders and sub-folders, opens up. I've got a lot of sub-folders, so it takes a lot of time to scroll down to the bottom.
    In Firefox, if I recall correctly, that drop-down list is collapsed - in other words, only the top-level folders show up until you start drilling down into the specific sub-folders you want.
    Is there any way to get Safari to show me just the top-level folders and then let me drill down to specific sub-folders? It'd be a lot easier than scrolling through every folder and sub-folder I have.

    Hi all,
    Unfortunately, there's no way that I know of to do what you've described. Hopefully someone will come along with a solution. While waiting though, perhaps you could also give Apple your feedback via the 'Report Bug' toolbar button.
    That said, I have been a long-time user of Saft (shareware) and it provides an 'Add Bookmark Here' function to the Bookmarks menu, and to each subfolder therein. It's not an ideal solution, especially since it's a paid plugin, but I thought you might find it interesting.

  • Can't set account picture

    I just tried to change the picture associated with my (administrator) account. I go to System Preferences, select Accounts, select my account, unlock it, select Picture tab, select Edit..., and then either choose a picture by navigating to it in iPhoto or dragging a picture into the Images window, or taking a video snapshot and selecting Set. The picture shows up as my new account picture but then immediately reverts to the default generic silhouette picture. I can't get the picture I select to stick.
    Something must be corrupted. Can anyone help?

  • R12: Create on-account Credit Memo with invoicing and accounting rules

    In R12.1.2: when using the AR_INVOICE_API_PUB it seems to be impossible to create a on-account Credit Memo with invoicing and accounting rules. The next errors are returned by the API:
    - AR_INAPI_INV_RULE_NOT_REQUIRED
    Do not include an invoicing rule if the transaction type's class is Debit Memo or Credit Memo.
    - AR_INAPI_RULE_NOT_ALLOWED
    Do not enter an invoicing or accounting rule for on-account credit memos
    Please advice how to create on-account Credit Memo with invoicing and accounting rules using an API.
