ARD automatic push and/or pull installs?

I understand ARD pushing installs to computers that are online for ARD access.
However what I am interested in is having the client ARD pulling the updates, or ARD pushing the updates when the machine becomes available.
In otherwords I want to update my user laptops automatically when ever they access the local network.
I know there are 3rd party apps and servers that do this but I believe they are all BIG $$$. Such as Filewave.
Any guidance would be great.

Can you make the task start when the computer becomes available?
With ARD 3, yes, for software installation tasks. Talk a look at Page 108, Chapter 8, "Installing Software on Offline Computers" in the Admin Guide.. If you don't have ARD 3 yet, you can download the Admin Guide here (clicking the link will download a PDF).

Make the installer for my executable run the DAqcarddriver and runtime engine installer automatically

*Hi
I would like to know how to make the installer for my executable run the DAqcarddriver and runtime engine installer automatically
I would like to include run time engine and the drivers of my daqcard(AI16XE50),( and maybe Ni daq or anything else needed?) in order to make my application portable for other computers on OS win98 and winXP .
How can I do that
thank you in advance
Olivier

Olivier,
What version of LabVIEW are you using to build your application? On a remote computer you should only need the drivers you are using and the Run-Time Engine. You can attach installers to LabVIEW 8 installers, but for previous versions you will have to add it by opening the installer configuration page, configuring your installer and then configure the Advanced properties. This will allow you to attach a EXE to the installer which you can run. Also depending on the version of LabVIEW will affect the OS version that you will be able to install the RTE on. LabVIEW 7.0 is the last version that can be installed on Windows 98.
Please let me know if you have any further questions and please include the version of LabVIEW you are using. Thanks!

Inbound email receiving and processing: push and pull

Hi Experts
i know there are 2 alternative ways to configure the inbound email receiving and processing: push and pull
(see also /people/cathy.ma/blog/2009/06/23/introduction-to-the-interaction-center-agent-inbox)
My question is: what if i configured the email in push and, at the end of day, some emails are not already read by the Contact Center Operator ?
The day after will the agent see those unread email in the push queue, or in pull in the Agent Inbox (thus transforming them into work item) ?
Those emails are not lost. True?
Maybe it is a simplistic question
thanks for the support
Angelo T.

Hello Angelo,
No, actually. ICI interface "push" emails are handled just like a telephone call. You would never leave a telephone call sitting in the queue at the end of the day, and its the same with ICI emails. The key here is that ICI is real time! This is quite a different approach than the SAPConnect interface which uses workflow to route the emails to an Inbox (virtual queue). In the Inbox case, of course an agent would see lots of emails sitting in the queue the next day. Hope that helps!
Regards,
John

Preventing the automatic download and installation of iOS 8

Once again this becomes an issue. How to prevent the automatic download and installation of iOS 8. Thanks.

Grrrrr. This needs a solution. I have a portable wifi account I use for teaching (mainly Apple devices) and when traveling. It updates my download capacity in 1gb chunks at $10 each. Just traveling at the moment, and this coincides with Apple updates. Three devices, @ 2 odd gb ea, all deciding to update while I drive. By the time I got the update notices from Optus, all three devices had downloaded the updates and were waiting for me to press install. I don't mind installing, but I don't want to pay $60 for the downloads thru this account. I think Apple owes me $60. There's no reason they can't set a restriction on this type of download for user nominated accounts. This is a significant issue for a lot of people. Please Apple,

How to prevent automatic download and install of Reader 8.1.2

Hi-
I have Adobe Reader 7.0.9 and I need to keep it as my default Adobe reader program and plug-in for some applications that I use.
Over the last week, Adobe reader 8.1.2 downloads automatically and installs itself in my business laptop (Win XP SP2) and replaces my 7.0.9 version.
Each time I uninstall the 8.1.2 and reinstall the 7.0.9. I ensure the option of automatic download and install is disabled in 7.0.9.
But it still happens I have for the xth time today the new 8.1.2 in my laptop.
Anybody knows what is going on ? And how can I solve this issue to keep my 7.0.9 version ?
Thanks.

Re: Apple Forced iOS7 update on my iPad2 !
Afterwards if you succeed, block Apple's update server using the following method so it wont get pushed to the device again:
In your router's settings, set up a block (using Access Restrictions or similar in the router's web interface) to mesu.apple.com. This will prevent the devices from "phoning home" to Apple, checking for the update and getting the download pushed to it again.

What is the difference between PUSH and FETCH

I am a little confused. I use my iphone for both my personal POP email accounts and my business exchange account. I am trying to save as much battery as I can so I turned off push and set everything to manual...but now when I try and get may mail....it either says "connecting" or "checking for new mail" at the bottom of the screen and nothing happens from there.
What is the best way to setup this situation for the most battery life? I don't need it to automatically download emails just when I open the email accout would be nice.
I also noticed that when I delete an email from my iphone on my exchange account, it also deletes is on my desktop at work...I need to turn this off...is it possible?

Hi maxum25,
The difference between push and fetch is that:
When using push, the server sends a signal to the iphone and lets it know that an email is coming its direction. Kind of like receiving a call. The iphone does not need to do anything except receive the email.
When using fetch, the iphone has to wake up every so often and send a request to the server to see if there is any new email waiting for it on the server to download. This takes more time because the iphone sends a request, the server says yes there is some, the iphone says ok give me the new email.
Now the exchange email uses active sync to keep all changes on the exchange server and mobile device in sync. This is automatic and is the nature of exchange and active sync. In order to keep this from happening you would need to talk to your IT dept. and see if they have an imap or pop alternative. Even using imap reflects the changes back to the server.
Hope this helps.

After reading and resetting everything with Keyboard I still get blank white screen. The only way I can boot to Mavericks is unplug power cord, push and hold power button while plugging power cord in. Fans at full speed.

After reading and resetting everything with Keyboard I still get blank white screen on 2nd? page of boot. The only way I can boot to Mavericks is unplug power cord, push and hold power button while plugging power cord in. Fans run at full speed, machine boots then runs normal except the dvdrw will not . The mid 2011 IMAC had the same problem with LION. I changed hard drives, formatted, and installed a clean install of latest os x mavericks. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Use the uninstaller provided with the Sophos software. You can uninstall CUDA via the preference pane. Be sure you remove the com.nvidia.CUDA extension which is located in the /System/Library/Extensions/ folder. Not sure if Fan Control has an uninstaller so you will have to do it manually:
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper
    2. AppDelete
    3. Automaton
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller
10. Spring Cleaning
For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on removing software.
Be sure to remove your two Login Items. Finally do this:
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
     Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                 if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Combine supported files is not automatically opening and closing source applications?

On my Vista 64 machine, suddenly, the "Combine supported files in Acrobat" has begun malfunctioning. Instead of automatically opening and closing the source application (such as MS Word), Acrobat opens the application and then asks to save a new PDF file for each source file and stalls out the conversion. This problem is not happening on my Win XP machine. I have used the 'Repair Acrobat Installation' function but the problem is not corrected.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Just to close out this thread, the bug was fixed with the latest version of Acrobat Pro Extended (9.3.3).

Cluster: automatic push of software from Active to passive node?

(Newbie) Setup: Two node cluster, active\passive.
After installing software on the active node will it (or any portion, e.g. config files) be automatically pushed to the passive node and kept in sync? Or am I required to install the same software on the passive node myself?
TIA,
edm2

To make sure your application can run from both cluster nodes, the executable should be installed on the same path on both nodes. This ensures that if the generic application fails over, the file upon which it depends are available on the
other cluster nodes.

ARD 3.7 and VoiceOver

Hi all.
OK here's my background. I'm a blind IT engineer / tech admin and support a list supporting blind mac users. My server is a 2010 customised mbp 2.66 i7 with 8gb ram and 2x 512gb SSD drives (drive 2 replaces superdrive bay)
I'm now using Mavericks with Server 3, Deploy Studio and ARD 3.7
Here's the problem.
For me to work with a blind client's mac relying on voiceover, I cannot grab system audio from the client, nor can I use Voiceover keys, etc to control the client's mac to conduct training, repairs and management.
I was hoping that ARD 3.7 would cover my needs but it isn't. the only use it can prove useful for is catalogueing networked systems, setting up routines that don't require direct UI interaction, etc. this is a real disappointment for me.
I've emailed apple accessibility and sent a bug report to apple feedback. heard nothing.
I have road tested and researched various products besides ARD 3.7 and either companies want yearly subscriptions which in some cases require pro licenses to be purchased. in one particular developer's pack you have to purchase the pro app and central to administer client management, reports, etc. without that, the features needed including full keyboard control and audio interfacing make my work extremely difficult.
in cases where I'm supporting a user who is blind / visually impaired and also has learning difficulties, instructions and detailed settings are of no use because the client cannot fully understand the processes involved, in cases where voiceover isn't playing ball for the client, I could step in to resolve the issue, use terminal within their system, conduct in-depth repairs, set up policies, etc.
If there's any apple Admins here, apple developers reading this forum, please can you integrate voiceover support to client level as well as audio support? there are many blind It techs, developers, engineers, admins, tutors and trainers across the world and this product would make a change. After all, we blind mac users represent apple marketing your products in a way that changes other peoples lives for the better. Any support on this would be much appreciated.
Ed

Not sure how that would happen but you should be able to revert to the Mac App Store version with the following steps:
1. Launch the App Store app
2. Go to the Purchases secton and verify that Apple Remote Desktop is showing in your list
3. Assuming it's in your list, delete Remote Desktop.app from /Applications
4. Verify that Remote Desktop.app is not installed on any other mounted volumes using Spotlight
5. If it is installed then either unmount those volumes or delete the app from those other locations
6. Go back to the Purchases section of the App Store app
7. If Apple Remote Desktop is shown as "Installed" then select "Reload Page" from the "Store" menu
8. The entry for Apple Remote Desktop should now give you the option to "Install"
9. Click "Install"
After installation you should have the correct Mac App Store version that does not prompt for a serial number.

Why does Firefox v 8 automatically push onto v 7.0.1?

Don't think this is a genius level idea...
I have numerous issues opening many websites in new v8 so I reverted down to v 7.0.1 which has worked well.
Did not last long, as FireFox is now so intent on making sure my computer is up to date, that each time I opened the About Firefox tab, the update to v. 8 started to load automatically.
Remove the push, no automated loading please!
I end up with version 8 loaded (maybe), with the main home page of Firefox telling me I am not up to date!

Go to ADVANCE then UPDATE and '''''uncheck''''' automatically download and install the update.
thank you
