Assistance with autounattend file for Windows 8.1

Our Autounattend for Windows 8 does not work for 8.1. Below is the Autounattend script I thought would work, but it gives error about not being able to create partition and the installation stops? Anybody know what I might be missing?

It's probably something simple, but can't figure it out. I'm trying to create an image for our tablets and hope to be able to save it either using Ghost or Acronis.

Could anyone assist with a quicktime for windows platform compatibility source?

I am trying to find a good source for Quicktime for Windows platform compatibility. I was unable to find anything on the apple support site for legacy versions, any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not certain what it is you're looking for, but perhaps this will give you the information you need:

Permission issue with moving files for windows

We run Quickbooks Enterprise on Macs. Parallels / Window 7 on iMacs for the client and data is on a Mac Pro. I am trying to move the data to an xserve, but the permissions get modified and quickbooks does not work, it gives me a -6000, -83 error.
The permissions on the Pro have "nobody Read & Write" and after the move to the Xserve they become "ghoberg Read & Write". I tried the following methods to move the data and all of them had the same results:
1) Copy;
2) ditto /Volumes/ghoberg/QuickBooks /Shared\ Points/Windows/Quickbooks
3) ditto -rsrcFork /Volumes/ghoberg/QuickBooks /Shared\ Points/Windows/Quickbooks
4) ditto /Volumes/ghoberg/QuickBooks /Users/graysonh/Documents/test
Any advise on coping the data over and keeping all the same permissions, etc?
Any other thoughts on moving Quickbooks over to the the xserve?
I can't get support from Quicken, because this is a windows software. We have been running windows quicken on macs for 4 or 5 years
Thank you
Grayson

WADK components & setting used for power management with answer file for windows 8.1 ent

hello,
I have to deploy windows 8.1 ent device with MDT answer file related to power management with customized following settings:
High performances
sleep timeout settings
standby or sleep and hibernate setting
Enable critical battery task.
But don't know
1. how to manage power settings using answer file (WADK) for win8.1.
2. which OS Windows image component and setting used for power management in WADK.
Thanks
Richa Km

The way I do it with my task sequences (this works with MDT as well as SCCM) is to have an exported power plan using the POWERCFG -EXPORT command. I create a software package around the resulting *.POW file with a command do do an POWERCFG -IMPORT.
I then issue a POWERCFG -SETACTIVE command to the GUID of the *.POW file to enable that power scheme.
More information on the POWERCFG command can be found here:

Hope that helps,

What you can download via Safari on the iPad is very limited - you can only download apps from the iTunes app store on your computer to sync to the iPad, or from the App Store app directly on the iPad

I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

I keep getting the message: "what should Firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

cor-el,
Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

Steve,
I appreciate your answer. While it might work, I'm a bit hesitant to remove the other programs as a possible solution since they are all currently working.
With Acrobat 9 Pro failing with the OS 10.7 upgrade, I'm hoping that there is a less severe solution.
Since the trigger appears to be 10.7 and may have something to do with the discontinued support of Rosetta, I could be spending a few hours working on a reinstall without a change. Yes, it might work. The "might" is the part that makes me hesitate.
Is anyone else out there on OS 10.7 and running Acrobat 9 Pro? Any issues with anyone else?
Thanks Steve. I do appreciate your offering a solution. I may end up trying it if nothing else comes together.

Problems installing QuickTime 7 with iTunes 6 for Windows XP

I am encountering problems with the latest version of QuickTime (version 7.0.3) together with iTunes 6.
Installation is fine except at the end when I receive an error message saying ’1628: Failed to complete installation’. It appears that both programmes have been installed and work but I am unable to uninstall them. Neither program appears in the Add/Remove programs list when they should be. If I select ‘Uninstall QuickTime’ from the Program list the uninstalation process starts but stops half way through.
I have tried downloading QuickTime standalone version but this is exactly the same. I removed the QuickTime folder, and all its contents, from C:\Program Files\QuickTime and installed the previous version (6.5.2) which installs and uninstalls fine.
I am at a loss as to why the latest version is causing problems.
Would appreciate any help or advice as to why this is happening?
Thanks

HT2477 Are documentS created with Microsoft office for windows and Microsoft office for mac are compatible with each other

Are documents created with Microsoft office for windows and Microsoft office for mac are compatible with each other?

As with a lot of software, it depends on the version of Word, and what features the author used.
Technically, Office 2010 for Windows and 2011 for Mac are supposed to be feature compatible. As are Office 2007 for Windows, and 2008 for Mac.
However, if a person using Office 2010 / 2011 used a feature that only exists in that version and sends the file to someone using Office 2007 / 2008, they would very likely have trouble opening the file, or having it display as intended.

Display picture in messages totally pixelated when seeing it with yahoo messenger for windows

Hello,
I'm using messages to chat with my yahoo messenger account at work and yahoo messenger for windows at home.
When I log into Yahoo with messages, my yahoo display picture is updated automatically with the one I have choose in messages.
My problem is that this picture is totally pixelated when you see it on yahoo messenger for windows. It seems that Messages is changing its size.
As the size in Yahoo messenger for windows is bigger it appears pixelated!
If I choose no display picture in messages, the one I have choose with yahoo messenger for windows disappear when I'm logging with it.
Is there a way that messages do not update the display picture each time I'm logging to Yahoo?
I suppose that there is no solution to this problem but I wanted to be sure.
Anyway thanks for your help.

HI,
Thanks for the Path.
This does seem to show all the Recents from the Contacts App > My Card, the Login Pic and the Messages Buddy List pic.
I think in Mountain Lion these were either separate items or the .plist that is in the current place listed the app/location the pic was used.
I have looked at the pictures in the folder (.png and thumbnail .tiffs) and the .plist and it does seem to be all the pics I have used in all three places over the last few months.
The Yahoo account is logged in not through IMAgent that FaceTime and Messages use for other Accounts but from the IMServicePluginAgent.
In Mountain Lion this used to list a Buddy Pic server as well as a straightforward login.
Using Little Snitch I am not seeing that in Mavericks.
Seems you may have to change your Pic on a web page for your Yahoo account.

How to make installer file for windows?

Hi,
I want to make a installer file for auto installing the ssl certificate. My folder contains following files:
1. importpfx.exe
2. Main.java
3. Main.class
4. TestCertificate.p12
I want to bundle above files into a single setup file.How should it be done?
Thanks in Advance

If you want to make an installer file for windows, i think below link is suitable for your requirement. I never tried this approach of creating the installer file of java applications. But while reading the description of it, i thought that it may suits to your requirement.
Here is the link : http://www.ej-technologies.com/products/install4j/overview.html
Description : install4j is a powerful multi-platform Java installer builder that generates native installers and application launchers for Java applications. install4j excels in its ease of use, its extensive platform support and its powerful screen and action system
