Apple 10.4 managed clients dock settings not working

I  have an issues with  3 or 4 of my 10.4 clients all are managed by WGM on an apple 10.5 server.  The I have managed dock settings on all apple clients are getting the proper dock settings however I have 3 or 4 clients that are not.  The clients that are not getting the dock settings are in the correct computer group.  And I don't see any of the clients dedicated in the computer group.  And suggestions or tips would be welcome help.

THAT WORKED and all is back to normal.
By the way I did not lose any of the icons on my dock either. All the apps light up under the icon and they now mimimize correctly!!
Thank you very much capfred!!!

Try deleting com.apple.dock.plist from the preference folder located in your user Library.
You can open the hidden library in Finder's menubar,  Finder > Go > hold the option key down > select Library.
Edit: you'll have to add back program icons to the dock that you moved there.

  • Dock settings not always appliying

    On several of my network accounts, the dock settings I have set up in MCX aren't applying when the user logs in. I have everything removed on the user (forget exactly why I did this, instead of simply not managing the user, but I was having extra dock items appear such as SysPrefs when I didn't want them sometimes) and then I have both group and computer group settings configured. However, sometimes only the Finder will appear. It's been a while since I've actually seen it, but I get reports of "oh last week none of my dock icons were there..." Why they couldn't tell me THEN, I'll never know. When I have seen it, often logging out and back in corrects it but sometimes it doesn't.
    Any clue why they would load inconsistently like this?
    XServe running Server 10.6.3, 30-odd iMacs running 10.6.3 (although had the issue with 10.6.2 server/client as well).

    I've just edited all my apple id information and my iMessage will not work at all, can anyone help?

    Try tapping Settings > FaceTime, turning FaceTime Off, editing the Apple ID associated with FaceTime, and then turning it back on.
    If that doesn't do it, take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation

    im running OSX 10.7.4

    Hi There,
    I have had the exact same issue but with a projector.
    The issue lies with Mountian Lion 10.8.2.
    I tried many a combination with no luck to get HDMI working.
    Took my mac into the apple store and came to the conclusion it was the software, so I asked them to install 10.8 onto it (this is destructive so a backup is a must)
    Bought my macbook home and voila, now displaying through my projector.
    There is a small graphics update after 10.8.1 which seems to be the cause.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • I am having trouble with my iPad, i can start it, but the iPad does not work. i tried to use the power and home button at the same time, the apple logo appears, but the iPad does not work. What am I suppose to do?

    I am having trouble with my iPad, i can start it, but the iPad does not work. i tried to use the power and home button at the same time, the apple logo appears, but the iPad does not work. What am I suppose to do?

    After the Apple logo appears, what happens then? Can you hear any sounds or if you tap on the screen, does it seem like apps can open or are you just seeing a black screen? You might have a hardware problem, but you can try restoring the software and see what happens.
    Read this in its entirety before you do anything. Make sure you read the sections at the end about using recovery mode.

  • Compression settings not working on Premiere Pro CC

    I am a freelance editor working for a satellite delivery company. They have specific settings they require for their uplink signals. These setting have worked great on CS5, CS6 and CC2014. However the company is now using CC and these settings create HUGE pixels and the file is unusable. Why do the same settings not work on CC?

    You're welcome.

  • HT2731 my new apple accont is verfied but it is not working what schould i do now

    my new apple accont is verfied but it is not working what schould i do now

    First thing to try is to connect it to the charger that came with it and plug that into the wall outlet. Let it charge for an hour. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the. Phone starts up continue with the setup procedure.
    If the phone still does respond Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

    This is a user-to-user support site not a place to reach techs. You can make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and see if you can do an out-of-warranty replacement or you can use a 3rd party repair site.

    If you installed Leopard that is why you can't install Mt Lion. The system Must be running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to upgrade to Lion or Mt Lion.
    If you only erased the Macintosh HD partition then you left the Mt Lion Recovery HD partition in tact on that system. At startup hold down the Command+r keys to boot to the Recovery HD Partition. From there erase the Macintosh HD partition and then select Reinstall Mac OS X. It should then download Mt Lion and ask you for the Apple ID that was used to purchase Mt Lion.
    The Reason Snow Leopard might not be installing is because of the Recovery HD partition. To get rid of that you must First Re-Partition the drive As One Partition. Then install Leopard then SL (Or Snow Leopard from the start) and then update it to 10.6.8. Once that is done you should be able to log on to the Mac App Store and Re-Download Mt Lion.

  • Installing microsoft office for mac and getting prompt for installer password.  i have put in apple id password and admin password and not working, i have also reset my admin password 3 times and it is still not working? how do i get past this?

    installing microsoft office for mac and getting prompt for installer password.  i have put in apple id password and admin password and not working, i have also reset my admin password 3 times and it is still not working? how do i get past this?

    You don't use your Apple ID or its password to install anything on your Mac. You use the admin account's name and password.
    Use the name and password you last entered when resetting them. The "name" you use is not the short name of the admin account folder.
    For example. If you create an admin account of John Smith, the short name given to that account's folder will be johnsmith. So when an app requests an admin name and password to install something, the admin name you enter is John Smith, not johnsmith.

  • Audio line out port (Apple iPad Dock Connector) not working Iphone 4 os 4.2

    For my new iphone4, the audio line out port (Apple iPad Dock Connector)is not working. Both using a cable to mini jack (3,5 mm) or in dockingstation.
    I'm using OS 4.2.
    IS this a bug?
    Thanks
    Hans

    I just came back from the Apple store.  My iPhone4 DOES have a working line out when plugged into a Apple name brand dock connector.   I don't know why my SendStation refuses to work only with the iPhone4 yet works with iPods, etc..
    Solution? I'm buying an Apple iPod dock connector for home and will try to find something with line out for the car - Apple says they do not make one.

  • Managed clients losing settings??

    On Snow Leopard Server Ive got a number of managed clients continually losing their managed prefs, I have to continually log into each computer as a local admin and refresh the settings to re-apply the settings
    Anyone got a solution?

    Check your open directory bindings and your DNS.
    We had problems like yours when we bound using the server's Bonjour name (e.g. myserver.local).
    When we gave the server a static IP and a proper name in DNS (e.g myserver.mydomain.com) and rebound... the problems went away.

  • Print Queue Management via Server Admin not working

    We have Xserves (10.5.8) running the Print Service for queue management to our printers. Clients print through the server just fine.
    When the printer jams or is otherwise paused, print jobs pile up in the queue as expected. The queue can be seen and managed by logging into the server, going to Server Preferences/Print & Fax and selecting the print queue.
    However, when the queue for the paused printer is viewed within Server Admin/Print, the queue shows as empty and therefore can't be managed. We want to use Server Admin for this function because:
    1) Server Admin can be run remotely on a workstation, so no login to the server required.
    2) We can assign Print Service management rights to select non-admins so they can manage the queues.
    Any ideas on why Server Admin fails to show spooled jobs? Is it working for anyone else?
    I am using Server Admin version 10.5.3 which are the latest available that comes with Server Admin Tools 10.5.7. We had been running 10.5.7 on the Xserve and it didn't work then either.

    Here's a bit more information about our setup and our experiences with Apple's CUPS implementation:
    On the server, all printer queues are set up with only lpr and ipp sharing enabled with the PPD setting for each printer set to Generic Postscript. We found that setting the PPD to the printer specific one on the server caused problems when clients tried to use printer specific options, like paper tray selection, etc.. The selection would be undone, apparently because the driver on the server would override the previous settings. Using Generic Postscript allows the client PPD settings to go through unmodified. Our printers are general a mix of HP LaserJets and some Sharp Copiers.
    All clients use lpd to the server queues with the printers' actual PPDs configured. Using ipp is superior in that printer feedback (jams, out of toner, etc) makes it back to the clients, but ipp only works when the client, the server, and the printer are on the same network. If the ipp client is not on the same network, the client spooler immediately goes into a paused state and the print job is stuck on the client.
    Using lpd to the server queues works reliably, but there is no feedback to the client. Jobs disappear from the client queue and go to the server, appearing to the user as a successful print. If the printer is down, there's nothing they can see or do about it.
