App-V 5.0 - Globally published application uses shortcut configuration from both AppxManifest.xml and DeploymentConfig.xml

Hello, i have specific shortcut naming requirements and specify them post-factum (after application sequencing) in DeploymentConfig.xml.
When the app is published globally to a machine account both files are used for configuring the shortcuts and I have start menu spammed with multiple entries.
I've checked that the app-v publishing server is configured with the appropriate DeploymentConfig.xml.
why? How to work around this without re-sequencing the app?

No it's not, it's published to an AD group with members of the group being only computer objects.
i've checked how i'm importing the app to app-v server, looks fine, config is set:
Import-AppvServerPackage $Args[0] | Set-AppvServerPackage -DynamicDeploymentConfigurationPath $AppVDeploymentConfig
Get-AppvServerPackage -PackageID $PackageGuid | Grant-AppvServerPackage -Groups $Args[1] | Out-Null
Get-AppvServerPackage -PackageID $PackageGuid | Publish-AppvServerPackage
update 1
I'm using the _DeploymentConfig.xml file, but I'm using the UserConfiguration section of that file. Could this be causing this behavior?
update 2
I've removed the UserConfig.xml from the folder when importing the app-v package to the server - same results, shortcuts are getting configured from AppxManifest.xml. I got one more angle I can check - maybe those shortcuts are somehow embedded
inside the private image.
and I've got it, it's the private image updating at fault.
thanks everyone!

Icloud or itunes backup, only backs up app data, not the app itself.
so if you restore as new, then there is no app data on your phone, you start out new...

HT4759 I want to use icloud mail on both iPhone 4s AND my pc. icloud mail on PC is mega glitchy and frustrating because my PC is ancient, I run XP, & these DO NOT MEET req's for iCloud. Is there a email platform that will run well on both XP and iPhone?

I NEED to use icloud mail on both iPhone 4s AND my PC. I need to use both.
Trying to use icloud mail on PC is mega glitchy (STOP SCRIPT WARNINGS EVERY FEW MINUTES) and frustrating because:
1. my PC is ancient (but nicely refurbished/fast)
2. I run XP (with both Firefox and Chrome- newest versions)
3. thusly, I DO NOT MEET SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for iCloud.
In my passed attempts I found that
1. Yahoo doesn't work well on iPhone
2. Gmail doesnt work well on iPhone.
I must be missing something... an app or... maybe a donated/ NEW FREE MAC! (That would be sweet! Ha.)
Is there an email platform that will run well on both XP and iPhone?
or... Please say it isn't true: I would love a Mac tablet or desktop. We have no money for a mac. SOL? Is this iCloud apple tech only for wealthy middle class and above who can afford to have the newest and best of everything?

@Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

You will not want to do that and you should just have two 5GB free accounts.
Too much risk of merging or losing data.

Can I use my iPod with BOTH a Mac and PC???

Might be an odd question and forgive me if it is an obvious answer. I just got a 30 gigger and connnected it up and charged it with my Mac mini at home last night. I have lots of music on my iTunes on my home Mac mini and I have some music on my work Dell Laptop(with iTunes). What would be the best way to sync up my two iTunes libraries (one on my Mac, the other on the Dell lapper) to the iPod, or is it even possible to use it interchangeably with both the Mac and PC??

Yes, you can.
Read through the following article, and make sure your iPod is Windows-formatted using the iPod Updater utility on Windows.

Take it back to whomever you purchased it from and ask for a refund. There is no way to get past the "Activation Lock".

Hello Support Mozilla,
I use firefox 25 on windows 8 PC and I am using this browser from past 2 months and yesterday I downloaded firefox Nightly and then used it as a browser. Today when I start opening browser then its not opening. Does the both firefox and nightly wont work in a single PC ???? I could use Internet Explorer & Google Chrome browsers, but the firefox browser is not loading.

You need to take care to use separate profiles when using multiple versions of Firefox.
We will need more information about your problem but mean while maybe this general information will help. Besides telling us about any error messages please also say exactly what you have tried; to fix the problem, and whether you now have multiple Firefox profiles set up.

Using project libraries for both web-based and AIR applications

I need to develop substantial code to build both web-based and AIR applications. Yes, they will have different features, especially when it comes to accessing files on the local file system.
However, 98% of the code can be shared.
I want to use a project library that can be used for both types of applications. Maybe using conditional compile when required to not use AIR API's in a web-based application.
I found this (somewhat old) warning:
Include Adobe AIR libraries Select this option if your library must use AIR features, such as access to the AIR APIs. Flex Builder then changes the library path of this new Flex Library project so that it includes airglobal.swc and airframework.swc. Web-based Flex projects cannot use this library.
Do not select this option if you are writing a generic library intended to be used only in a web-based Flex application, or in either a web-based or AIR-based application.
Does this apply to Flash Builder 4.5?

I have found a workaround, but it's quite clumsy, involving a transfer vector (in old-fashioned terms) in the main application for each function in the AIR library.
I have created a library for AIR classes only (fourdtext.fileOperations is there).
The AIR application provides "Function" values that any other code in the general-purpose libraries can use.
It works, but it's nasty.
In Main.mxml:
import com.fourdtext.fileOperations.AxFiles;
// this gets a list of native path strings, from and array of "File" objects
public var AxGetListFunction:Function = AxGetListRedirect;
private function AxGetListRedirect(list:Array):Vector.<String>{
return AxFiles.AxGetList(list);
In general-purpose code:
var list:Array = event.dragSource.dataForFormat("air:file list") as Array;
var AxGetList:Function = FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.AxGetListFunction;
listFiles = AxGetList(list);

Using apple configurator can i install paid and free apps onto a supervised ipad?

I have read somewhere that you can only put free apps onto an unsupervised device and only paid apps can be put on a supervised device. Does this mean that an ipad cannot have both free and paid apps on it at once?

Hi Samantha,
You can have both free and paid apps on Supervised iPads. Not sure where you read that you couldn't... We have both paid and free apps on all of our 1,000+ iPads in our school district.
Hope this answers your question!

Can I use Magic Jack for BOTH phone calls and Fax. Is Magic jack PLUS BETTER.

I am using the Magic Jack for regular phone calls. Now, I want to use it for Faxing in and out - on Windows - on a wireless connection to my Officejet 8600 Pro Plus. I see a lot of problems in the forum. Is it easier to buy and use the new Magi Jack PRO. AND. PLEASE, Does anyone have instructions for the installation and use?

I'm going to be up front and straight forward with you. Magic Jack, does not work with faxing 90% of the time. It's not designed to. That being said, you still have to have a phone line plugged into the printer to fax. There is no such thing as wireless faxing. There is internet faxing, through companies such as eFax, and you can use eFax wirelessly form the front panel of select printers. The 8600 is not one of those printers though. The printers that include the eFax app are in the PhotoSmart line. Now that you know all of that, you can try to get faxing to work with magic jack, but it' most likely not going to work. Here is a list of the things you can try:
Fist make sure you have a DSL/Digital filter installed in the line. Next, set the fax speed to slow. You can find steps in this document that will help with that. Last make sure the ECM (Error Correction Mode) is off. To turn off the ECM:
From the home screen, touch the right arrow.
Touch setup.
Touch fax setup.
Touch advanced fax setup.
Scroll down to ECM.
Touch ECM.
Touch off.
Touch the home button.
That's about all you can do to get it to work, and even then it's not guaranteed at all. Like I said, Magic Jack does not work with faxing.

Using iPads @ configurator in school with school AND personal iTunes accounts

Hi all,
My kids school has introduced a managed ipad program which includes most parents purchasing the iPads but still having them managed by the school.
As we own these devices the kids take them home every day
iPads are ipad 3 and above
The school has setup configurator for mass deployments/ updates etc. and have the one iTunes account for all using vpp
With the initial deployment we were able to install our own personal apps using our own personal iTunes account to install and update ourselves.
There was no expectation that the school would manage these personally acquired accounts.
In the last week the school has removed the App Store front the iPads effectively removing any ability we have to install our own personal apps.
I have spoken with them and their stance is that it is too hard to manage updates because occasionally the iPads come back to the school logged in with the personal iTunes account
Can anyone out there please share any experience/solution that they may have which will allow the iPads to be managed through configurator whilst still allowing us to install our personal apps?
The school have said they will return our rights if a solution can be found.
I am very surprised that this is not possible and seek the assistance of the community.
I am based in Australia
Thanks in advance

Hi Rob,
If the school is using Apple Configurator and have set the iPads to "Supervised" mode, it will prevent anyone from using their personal computers and iTunes to install apps or copy other data to/from the iPads to the personal computer. If the school has restricted the App Store on the iPad with a configuration profile, then they've made it impossible for you as a parent to install apps. (I'm surprised they did this being that these are personally owned iPads!)
In our school district, we are set up with a "Layered Ownership" model that allow us to buy and install apps that were purchased by the district, as well as allow the kids to do the same with their own personal Apple IDs. We don't have the App Store locked down on the iPads. The kids or parents can log in to the App Store on the iPads and install whatever they want. Even if they are logged in with their own personal Apple ID, we can still install apps that we as a district purchase using an MDM.
All of the app updates that we do for the apps that we have purchased are done though an MDM (mobile device management) server. There are many MDMs out there and perhaps your kid's school district could look in to using an MDM to manage their app distribution. There are a few different ways that MDMs have to distribute apps so your kid's school would want to talk to an MDM provider to see how they can help in your situation. We've been using an MDM in our school district for a year now and its been working great.
Here's a list of MDMs that you could send to your kid's school:

Dear Mayank Gupta
Thxs for ur reply
We are creating a EBIDTA Report which is already developed in R/3 and these result will be stored in Z table.
we have created a DSO which will store this Z table data.
Now the req is we have a created a field called ZVersion which is there in the Key fields of DSO. ok
But in report we want to use the condition TOP1 on the version. as the version is a not a key figure we cant create the Conditon on the characteristc.
If we use version as a key figure then the records are summurised in DSO as u have to insert it in Data Field.
we want to use version as a primary key.
so how to go abt it?

Can I use downloaded songs from iTunes into iMovie and burn DVDs?

If I use downloaded songs from iTunes in iMovie, will I be able to make DVDs of my movie without losing music files?

Hi A
Probably but iMovie and I guess iDVD is fussy about in what format the audio
is in. It should be 48k/.aiff
If You in iTunes make an audio CD with the material You need in Your movie
and then Use this CD in iMovie it will work.
