Allowing a user to upgrade a specific Application

We have a specific application that we install on all of our mobile computers. Our newest is the Microsoft 8.1 Professional with an attached keyboard. The issues that we are facing have all been resolved with the exception of one.
The application is installed as the administrator and the user is a basic user with no real privileges. We gave the user full access to the folders that are created and would like to have the users to be able to update this application when newer versions
are released.
The Windows XP systems were performing this without fail but Windows 8 is telling me that the user does not have the appropriate permissions to install as All Users. I have spent a lot of time in GPO and still being denied. Can anyone offer assistance on
this?

Hi,
This happens on Windows 8 not on windows XP, because there is a User Account Control setting in Windows 8 User Account Control (UAC) helps prevent malicious programs (also called malware) from damaging a computer and helps organizations deploy a better-managed
desktop. With UAC, applications and tasks always run in the security context of a non-administrator account. So, a consent prompt will show up when you try to install an application with a standard user, the detailed information can be found at Microsoft:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj574202.aspx
So, the suggestion is add the standard user to the administrator group, then your can check the result.

One way of doing this is to use either a ring or enum where the strings
presented to the user are "1", "10", or whatever you like. On the
diagram, the values will be 0, 1, 2, in a compact counting sequence.
Then do an array index into a constant. If this is done more than one
place, make the control a typedef so you can keep them consistent an
d
make the index be done in a subVI. Then whenever you need this, you
drop the control and the subVI, out comes the integer, float, or
whatever it is you want to index.

Allow other users when upgrading from version 8 to 9

When I originally installed Parallels 8 I did not allow access to Windows to other users on my iMac. I am now upgrading to Parallels 9 and want to enable another user on my computer to access my Windows programs. Will I be prompted to allow other users when I install the Parallels 9 upgrade or will I have to go into Parallels 9 later to allow this. If I have to go in later, how do i do it.

You might want to ask in the Parallels forum as to how Parallels 9 works. http://forum.parallels.com/forum.php

All Domain User update specific application

Server OS: Windows Server 2008 R2
PC: Windows 7 SP1 Professional /joined domain
We looking for any hint can allow domain user account upgrade specific appliation, we test servral method but all not work
1. This is IM QQ appliction and no MSI , version change quickly, can not use GPO deploy also the patch is not download. Force update by online.
2. We can not grant local admin right to users beacuse need to stop anyone install application without approval
3. Can not use Windows Application Control, because that feature need Windows 7 Enterprise.
4. Consider use local security policy, application control or software restrict but difficult for mangement over 100 PCs
5. Try to grant everyone under program files / (x 86) folder but patch update seem involve registry and other system permission.
6. Market has third party application control but those application can not block the application which not on their list, means we if we grant local admin right to users, they can freely install anything
seem any other information can help this case. thanks
supporthk

How about:
Group policy to add a local admin user account for a day or two, or a week
Group policy to apply a logon script to run a batch file - batch file to copy file(s) to local computer, "run as" the install file as new local admin account, then clean up temp & install files
Then edit the 1st GPO to remove that local admin account
Could be a way, but that force the admin to pre-package all software update and it allow a hole for the user to install anything while it's PC isnt rebooted.
Maybe in App-V it could be do-able. In XenApp you can stream to the computer the application, and you can allow the user to update. The registry hive is isolated and file are deployed when the user click the application. Never tried it with App-V, but I
heard you can isolate the application too. In both product you pre-install in a virtual's way, and that make like a .msi, that the user get to the workstation when they want to use the application in big, and the modified file are stored in the user profile
(for xenapp, surelly the same for app-v)

Being able to have one sigle file open in a specific application or have a user directory

Wonder if anyone can help with the following request ?
One things doesn't make sense with the WIFI mini I Pad Latest IOS :
If you have several programs that can open a specific file as PDF for example why do you have to upload the same file ( PDF) into to each specific application folder or cache. Resulting in multiple copy of the file (PDF) copied on your I pad??? which translate to a useless waste of space.
Wouldn't it be easier having a single directory where the user can save all of his file/s and each program that can manipulate that particular file have access to it. As an example I got several program that that can run an excel file and am enjoying a multiple copy of the same workbook loaded into my WIFI MINI.. this is just blatant waste of memory/ disk space on my Ipad..... I wonder there is a program that allows me to save all this file in a single directory and give me the opportunity to open each file with a specific application of my choice?????
Thanks for your help

That doesn't help.
There's a clear distinction between temporary files, and files downloaded to the users' download folder.
Or at least, there should be.
I'm inclined to call this a bug, since the user (being me) didn't ask for the download.
Downloading upon opening a site from the address bar is a different action than downloading from within a site (e.g. clicking a url shortcut or a button to download from an indirection).

Hi All,i am currently working on a flex application that will allow the user to change the language

Hi All,i am currently working on a flex application that will allow the user to change the language within the application from english to Japanese and vice versa. And everything works fine.
I am using flex 4.5
We allow the user to save records with english or japanese texts.
problem
When the user manually enters Japanese text and tries to save it the record defaults back to the default name (which is in english). But if you copy the entered text and paste it and then save it.It works fine.
Any idea , why this is happening?
Please let me know if the question is not clear.
Looks like there was already a bug

By Payal integration , you mean paypal button html ? or payment gateway setup etc ? If its a gateway configuration for your site domain then single page for all layout will work , but if you are using button code for all renditions then you would need to create separate pages for all.

Upgrade to SBO 2007 : a user was added outside the application....

Hi
I just completed the upgrade of a system from 2005 to 2007.
But when trying to create a new user, i've got this message :
-> a user was added outside the application. Delete it, or perform "Restore Numbering"
Do you have any idea on the way to overtake this message ?
Thanks
Stéphane

Hi Stéphane,
When you have this message, the first thing to do is log a message to SAP support.

User should not be allowed to login 2 times to an application from same m/c

Hi Everyone,
I have to find all possible solutions to below problem:
Problem: User should not be allowed to login 2 times to an application from same machine.
Steps to produce the problem:
1) User 1 logins to application.
2) User 1 tries to login with different credentials from same machine.
3) User 1 should be presented with a message that he cannot login from same machine using 2 browsers.
4) User 2 tries to login to application with credentials of user 1. System should now display an alert to both users on System 1 and System 2 of this conflict.
Please share your thoughts regarding above problem.
Thank you
Edited by: rishab.garg on Feb 25, 2009 10:53 PM

When a user logs in to application flag it in database. Irrespective of client machine and browser when another user tries to login using same user id you will be able to identify that easily using stored flag against the user id.
If you want to distinguish between client machine for displaying different messages you can easily do this by comparing client IP address. To obtain client IP address use:
request.getRemoteAddr();Note that getRemoteAddr() might return last proxy machine's IP address (in case proxy is used) instead of client's machine. In that case you may consider using cookie (though using cookie is not a great idea).

Is it possible to allow the user to highlight specific label in the GUI.

i have an existing GUI tt allows user to key in records of information eg, patient records in a hospital system.
and display them based on wat the user key in for the patient's id no:
is it possible to allow the user to highlight label in the GUI.
Label as in information like Illness:<Red>Cancer<Red>
for tt customer only.
and re open the file to have the color still there.
i serialized my vector of objects into a file, and have the gui to retrieve them upon execution.
color wise i m lost.
one solution is to have a corresponding Color attribute to each of my other attribute in all my other classes.
besides this, any idea how to do it?
i also did a search on java map..
couldn't really find sth useful abt it..
seems like few ppl know how to use it well..
API doesn't seems to show how i can use it to reach my objective.
anyway, i hope the user can highlight A attribute of a record and not highlight the entire record..
tt's why i find it soo cumbersome to have another Color object created for each atttribute.
eg:
patientId, patientName, etc.....
thanks in advance

Several Swing components understand HTML tags, eg JLabel, which is VERY useful, as in the previous example.
Are you asking "how do I highlight a field" or "how do I make it remember the color it has"?
As Color is itself Serializable, why not store your data in a Hashtable not a Vector?

How to allow multiple users login to a MAC PRO without interruption?

I have a mac pro, which runs Yosemite, (2013 module) to be used as a server. However, I have difficult to let multiple users to use the mac simultaneously.
Objective:
    One person uses the mac directly on his desktop, while the others to login remotely though VNC from PC (win 7/Linux).
    The users have their own workspace, and they will not interrupt each other.
What I tried:
    I created two mange accounts on the MAC.
    Account 1 was used to directly login on the mac desktop.
    Account 2 was used to login to the mac from a PC though VNC. (I also tried this from a Centos workstation with the Tiger VNC viewer)
Problem:
When account 2 is login, the location monitor will automatically change to that account as well. Both accounts shared exactly the same screen, mouse & keyboard actions. It is impossible to let multiple users to use the MAC pro simultaneously without interruptions.
If I use "hdiutil attach" to mount a dmg file though SSH with account 2, the folder will automatically show in the local desktop login with account 1.
Question:
I read something about the "Per-user screen sharing". It says, "You can remotely log into a Mac with any user account on that computer and control it, without interrupting someone else who might be using the computer under a different login." Is it possible to do this from a PC or Linux client?
If the problem is simply due to the poor functionality of the build-in VNC service in Yosemite, I appreciate your help to suggest some other decent VNC server for Yosemite. I know the Vine Server (OSXvnc), but I failed to install it on the mac because it is incompatible with the Yosemite.
Does the SSH is supposed to work in this way in OSX? I mean the local account can see the folder mounted by another account though SSH.
If any specific version of Yosemite is required to allow multiple users to access a mac simultaneously? Just as the win 7 professional allow only one user to login in at each time. But with the remote desktop server of windows, multiple users are able to use the same computer at the same time without any problem.
If you familiar with any of the above questions, please help. Any comments and suggestions are appreciated.
I know the best way to get the solution is to direct call the apple support. However, it is really not easy to call them. Because it always results with long waiting time and then the people pick up the phone will transfer my call to an expert who will make me to describe the problem again.
Since I'm not interested in the technique details of all the problems, it is also grateful if you would provide a direct instruction to let me setup the computer for the purpose.
Thanks you very much for your kindly help.

I cannot help with the screen sharing, although I have just tried it with a RealVNC client on an iPad and it seemed to work OK.
However on the disk showing on all users desk tops have you unchecked the "ignore ownership on this volume" check box? You can check the drives permissions with CMD i command.

Allow certain users to capture quotation after bid end date

Hi
Is it possible to allow certain users to be able to capture quotation on behalf of suppliers using surrogate bid after the end date has been reached but before the opening date? How would I do this?
Regards

Hi
As the end date and opening date are at the header level common to all bidders/vendors, we cannot manually capture quotation for specific suppliers using surrogate bidding. I dont think there is even a BADI for this.

Way to allow the user access to the saved lists of this Z report

We have a Z report that we want to run at midnight each Sunday and then view the output/layout first thing Monday morning. We can schedule the report to run but it appears that the only way we can save the output as a 'file' for later viewing is by using the "Save with ID" option, which puts the output into a SAP 'saved list'.
The problem with this is that it doesn't appear to be possible to access that list from the Z-report - it would appear that you have to go into SQ01 and use the 'saved list' button. This means giving the Z- report user access to SQ01 as well as Z-report, which, for security (SOD) reasons we don't want to do.
We can run the report in foreground with the output option "File store" and save the output as a file to a specified location,. But this option doesn't appear to be available when the report is scheduled as a background job. If this is done, the background job runs but there's no output anywhere, as far as we can tell.
So what want is to run the report in background but with the output option 'File store' or equivalent (i.e. an output stored somewhere that the report user can view). Is this not possible, or have we missed something in setting up the report run?
Or is there a way to allow the user access to the saved lists of this Z report without giving them T-code SQ01?
Thanks

Hi !
I just wonder if the answer from Varishtb below did solve your propblem.
I have exactly the same problem as you. I also want to be able to look at the saved list without using the sq01.
If you solved it I will be grateful to get the solution.
regards Lars
answer:
You can call the infoset query directly from a transaction code. There's
no need to copy it as a 'Z-report' (or as a custom report). In fact,
everytime you're copying an infoset query to a report, you're calling
for problems the next time you face an upgrade. (That is because SAP
changes the internal logic used to handle the infosets queries from
version to version)
We're using some infoset queries and they work fine this way.

How can I allow a user to control my Edge Animation using only the scrollbar?

I have seen a few examples of an Edge Animation being conrolled by the scrollbar, and I am wondering how I could achieve the same effect.
Example:
http://dominikruckli.ch/scrolltest/scrolltest.html
I have searched the corners of the internet and have found 2 or 3 different tutorials, but none of them have proven successful.
In basic terms, I am creating an animation that involves a character getting from Point A to Point B, from the beginning of my timeline to the end.
Rather than exporting my animation so that it plays automatically, by itself, I would like for a user to scroll vertically, and the playing of the animation moves in conjunction with the scroll bar.
As the user scrolls from top to bottom on the scrollbar, the character in my animation moves from Point A to Point B.
Also, if the user stops scrolling... the character will stop moving as well.
In addition, I would like the surrounding area, outside of my stage, to remain hidden. I do not want to allow the user the ability to scroll around and see off of my designated stage area. I only want the scroll bar to act as a playhead for the animation.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Note:
If you have special CSS (or other form of Code), please provide specific instructions on how to insert this code, where it should be located, what part(s) of the code should be altered, and any additional instructions on how to apply any form of coding. (Screenshots would be amazing)

Never mind. I figured it out myself. I changed the myComp.play("scenefour"); to myComp.getStage().play("scenefour"); and it worked fine.

How can I allow network users to use File Sharing on 10.8 Server?

I am in the process of setting up a new OS X 10.8 Server. I have exported/imported the network users from my previous OS X 10.6.8 Server using Workspace Manager. I have re-entered the passwords of the users. I have existing clients running (stil logged in).
I have set up the File Sharing service in Server.app. I have several mount points. I have made the Users mount point available for home directories over AFP.
Now, the system administrator can connect to the server and get access to the file shares. So the basic file sharing system works.
Also: the users on a client can get there password verified (e.g. when unlocking screen protection) by the server. It is just AFP they can't get access to, while the system administrator account (OD /Local on the server) can be used. So, the password in the server is OK too. It seems to be a matter of privileges.
But no network user (OD user in directory /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 on the server) can get access. Where can I give network users privileges for File Sharing on the server?
I did try to add either the "Open Directory Users" group or a specific user that was imported into com.apple.access_afp. If I do that, there is partial success. I can connect to the server from the client with a user account other than system administrator from the server (but connecting is slow). But Mobile Home Sync does not work:

Hi Gerben,
Try creating a brand new user, that's not imported and see if that works. Every user/group has a little gear in the Server.app/Users or Groups which allows specific access to specific services, perhaps filesharing is off in that section?
Is your DNS setup properly? Can you verify that clients can see the FQDN of your server?
After setting up the Users folder for mobilehomes, did you check whether the group and the separate users have access to filesharing? I am able to select the correct homefolder /Users and restrict the homefolder size.
Goodluck!

Security question - restricting access to a specific application

Hello,
Looking for suggestions on how I could limit connections to a database to a specific application. Here is the scenario.
I have an application running from a desktop that has oracle accounts for each user. The user has a read only role by default that I cannot alter. This means that the user can use excel (for example) and bypass the application to look at sensitive data.
I know I can lock down the desktop, remove excel, etc, etc. However, I'm looking for other options that could be used, be it process, additional Oracle software (the database is 10R2 enterprise edition), etc.
Problems: The app doesn't identify itself internally. I can see the program, but that is easily faked so thus unreliable.
Any suggestions at all?

I'll look at VPD again, but don't think the vendor will support us if we do.
We are unable to modify the app - third party supported
exactly - dont want toad, excel, sql*plus, whatever accessing the db from the same host.
thought above secure app roles as well, but need something concrete that I could validate agianst. If the app could call it and supply that, great but I cannot alter the application. I'm using secured app roles in an in house app and it does work well.
looking with our ti staff about encapsulating the application communication through a secure vpn tunnel into the data zone. may be an option as all other connections would not make it through the firewall into the data zone. (everything is internal, just to be segmented).
