Automate the import of company contacts to new users in Office365

Hey all,
I'm looking to find a way to automate the way I import our internal company vcard contacts to a new users Outlook 2013 contact list. Right now, I'm having to save each individual vcard manually into the new users Outlook 2013 contact list.
What I would love to happen is when I create this new user in the O365 admin portal that this user will automatically have these company contacts included.
Is this possible?

My problem: I wanted to import my addresses out of the thunderbird addressbook into my iPod Touch
Solution:
You need mozilla thunderbird with an addressbook stuffed with your contacts, an addon called "MoreFunctionsForAddressBook" (Altavista, Google, msn etc. are your friends to find it), outlook express
The steps
Create a folder for your vcards
Install MoreFunctionsForAddressBook as addon to your thunderbird
Open your addressbook
mark all your addresses, _*go to extras, export vcard and send them to the new folder*_
Mark all the cards in the new folder, copy them by pulling them into the addresslist.
Then you push the correct button in iTunes and it will do the rest ...

How can I set the default home page for all new users in Firefox 4

I'm trying to deploy FF 4.0rc1 in a corporate environment but I can't find a way to set the default home page or any other settings for that matter.
Is there a way to set the default home page for all new users and lock it so that the users can't change home page?
Best regards
Jonas

In Firefox 4 the template folder for new profiles (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile\
) doesn't exist. You can create that \defaults\profile\ folder and place a file user.js in it with the prefs that you want to initialize.
See:
*http://www-archive.mozilla.org/catalog/end-user/customizing/briefprefs.html
You can also use a mozilla.cfg file to set the default value for prefs.<br />
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

How to import Verizon Cloud contacts to new iPhone 6

My HTC DNA battery quit working and would no longer boot up. Luckily I had my contacts backed up to Verizon Cloud. I just purchased a new iPhone 6, however, my contacts will not import to the new IPhone 6. What am I doing wrong? It doesn't give me the option of "restoring" contacts, only restore media to the new phone.

wow thats a hard one. Not that many people have that phone. I would probably say go to store and let them try it on the machine. Since its such an old phone its going to be hard. If you synk with outlook tho I am sure you can do it.

Where is the import option for "Start a new clip at each scene break" in iMovie 2013?

I am currently in the process of importing several mini-DV tapes via firewire into iMovie 2013. I have the most recent version of iMovie and am using a Sony Handycam to facilitate the transfer. The problem I am having is that when I hit import, iMovie splits what is supposed to be a single scene into multiple scenes ranging anywhere from a second to 5 minutes. I am left with several scene chunks that I cannot combine into one. I did a little research and found that iMovie is probably deinterlacing my scenes as it mistakes them for multiple scene breaks. In the older iMovie options, all I had to do was to go to "Preferences" -> "Import" -> then deselect "Start a new clip at each scene break". However, this option doesn't appear to be available in iMovie 2013. Is there a way I can force iMovie 2013 to import a single scene from my mini-DV camcorder without breaking it into multiple clips? Thanks!

1st : this is the wrong forum, this is iMovie for ipod/iphone and ipad ( iOS is the OSX mobile Operating System )
2nd : iMovie 11 is the current OSX version. iMovie 06 was the last of its kind, all newer, including iMovie 09 have complete new workflow, so functions of 06 are gone and have replaced with others.
Please go to the correct forum to find specific answers.

Replicate in the Master controller and creation of new user with cisco prime infrastructure 2.1.

Hello!!
We have multiple controllers Cisco WLC 5508 (all running software version 7.6.120.0) distributed in various buildings and a controller in other control building (also Cisco WLC 7.6.120.0 5508) operating as Master and backup of the buildings's controllers .
Each building is radiated such an SSID that is used as a validation of the user connected to that SSID web portal each controller (in the WLAN, Security -> Layer 3 -> Web Policy), using the local database to validate the user.
The problem is that the local database of users is not being replicated between controllers buildings and the Master controller, so if you drop the controller of a building, the Master controller begins to provide service to the buildings access points, but the equivalent radiated SSID cannot able to validate users.
I need know if it's possible through Cisco Prime Infrastruture 2.1, first replicate in the Master controller on the basis of existing controllers buildings each local data and, second, that the creation of new users are automatically perform both the controllers like to the Master .
Thanks.

As noted earlier, it is not advisable to use the root user to log in for normal use. New users and groups can be created by navigating to Administration > Users, Roles & AAA as shown in the preceding figures. It would help to chalk out what are the various levels at which you want to distribute the users, and to create those roles first. It doesn’t really matter whether you create users or groups first. New users can be easily added by going to Administration > Users, Roles & AAA > Users > Add Users > Select “Add Users” from the drop-down on the right side. Once you get into the add user workflow, fill in the username, password, and local authorization for this user as shown in the figure below.
A virtual domain can also be assigned to the users when you define their roles by selecting the virtual domain on the left side and moving it to the right side as shown in the image below (left).

Import Time Machine backup to new user account? Migration Assistant?

Long story short: my wife has a recent Time Machine backup from HER iMac that we would like to import as a new user account on MY iMac.
No need to import apps--just user profile, settings, photos/docs, etc.
Do I need to create a new user account for her on my iMac first? Or will it be done during the import?
Also, should I be using Time Machine for this, or the Migration Assistant?
Just looking for the easiest way to do this, as it will be a temporary situation until her new MacBook Pro arrives.
Thanks!
EDIT: Not sure if it makes a difference, but her iMac was running Snow Leopard at the time of the last Time Machine backup, and my iMac has Lion.

Use Migration assistant and import her user account from TM backup.
Don't create her user account first. Migrating her account will take care of that.
Shouldn't matter if her previous backup was SL.

How can I Import CA Certificate into a new user profile when it's created

I need to deploy a CA Root Certificate to new firefox user profile when it is created in windows. I Seen somewhere that you could place a working copy of cert8.db in %programfiles%\firefox-installation-folder\defaults\profile and this would get added when a new firefox profile is created. However, the profile directory doesn't exist in the defaults folder and when I created it this method still didn't work.
Is there a way to get firefox to create new profiles with preconfigured Certificates?
Right now when new users open firefox for first time it is unable to connect to any SSL sites through our proxy server until the user adds the proxies ca certificate or it gets added later via logon script (at next user logon).

Update... For anyone looking for a similar solution:
I ended up adding more to my logon script I have it check for a user's mozilla profile first and if not found it will use command line "firefox.exe -createprofile default" to make one. After that I just copy a working cert8.db to that new profile. Then when the user opens firefox for first time, it will detect this new profile, and it will load it along with the correct CA Certs intact...
Also, for existing profiles my script just uses nss certutil to add my proxy CA Certificate to the users profile cert8db.

How can i disable the registration pop up when a new user logs in each time?

i work at a University and i install FCE 4, it launches and it comes to a registration screen.
how can i get that registration screen to go away so that when new users log into the Mac
they wont get that registration screen pop up?
any help would be great.

The registration screen should only appear after every 5 launches.
If you register FCE it will no longer appear assuming it is on the same computer.

How do I automate the import of a certificate (.cer) file within a silent install of FireFox 9.0.1?

I have created an msi package for FireFox v9.0.1 and I need to include registration of a security certificate (.cer file) in the install. I am deploying the msi via an installation vbScript with SCCM. This will allow me to either include the certificate registration in the msi or as a post-install task in the vbScript. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Help. how can i get into my word 365 subscription on my iMac. i just can't adapt to pages the same. I'm a new user transferring from microsoft pc

bought a new iMac recently. need to get into word 365 for which i pay monthly subscription. when i try to login, it tells me i don't have the outlook web app. is this something i need to install first?

Do you mean your Windows Office suite? Because my first thoughts would be that Office for Windows and Office for Mac are two different products.
When I switched to Mac after using PC for years, I had to buy Office for Mac. My Windows (for PC) wouldn't have worked at all. I would imagine the paid per month (or whatever) system would be the same.

How do I update the protected AAC file to my new user id (w/ email)

When I delete the files and try and redownload them under match they don't show up either. What to do?

Hi,
You need to authorise those tracks using your old Apple ID and password i.e. the one you used when you purchased those tracks

Moving All The Important Stuff to a New User Account. What to take?

It's been quite an eventful week and, because I can't turn %%$$! FileVault off on my original user account, I've just decided to move over to my back up account. "Brian" now has Admin abilities but I was wondering about the process of getting Brian to look/feel just like my original, now f'ed up account. Is it just about putting the Preferences file folder onto an ext. HD and putting it into the new account's Library? (I've managed to screw things up REAL BAD messing about with my Preferences Folder. I really don't want to go through that again!)
Anyway, anything else beside the above folder? I've got all my music and photos/movies already on the Ext. HD. I'm so mad at the Brianhardy account, I really look forward to deleting it. (No, that doesn't make any sense...)
Finally, how do I pick a better picture for brian for the users window? Nothing against dogs but.......
Thanks.
Brian

Hi Brian
I went through what you are currently describing for the same reason as yours: disabling FileVault. Let me give you a few suggestions.
First of all, what I did is I actually went through all the files in the Preferences folder, to choose the ones I really wanted to move to the new account. There were so many obsolete preference files in there remaining from uninstalled apps that it was worth seriously cleaning up this folder.
Second, the Preferences folder is probably not the only folder in your Library you want to migrate. I'll give you a list of the stuff I migrated, but some of if might not apply to you.
My address book. It was corrupted, so I ended up exporting all the contacts, group by group, and importing them into the fresh, new address book on the new account. But you might not have to go through this trouble.
My calendars. I am a .Mac subscriber, so I synced over .Mac between the two accounts. (Be careful, it is a bit more tricky than it sounds). Same for all the stuff that can be synced (see the .Mac preference pane): Safari bookmarks, email accounts and rules, keychain... For some reason the keychain sync did not work, so I had to do the same export-import procedure as for my address book, except I had to give my password for every item in the keychain... :S I can type my password pretty fast, now :P
/Library/Application Support/iWeb if you use iWeb to create websites, which I don't recommend, after fighting with it for quite a while (but I haven't tried iLife'08 yet). More generally, you should have a look into this Application Support folder to see if anything in there is worth migrating.
/Library/Mail
/Library/Sounds because I had put lots of custom sounds in there that I can use for iCal alarms
/Library/Widgets
By the way, after migrating to this new user, I decided NOT to make it an admin, and to create a second new user with admin rights. I read this makes your mac more secure. Whenever you do something that requires admin rights, you enter the username and password of this admin user.
I also kept the old user for a while, just in case I realize later that there is something I forgot to migrate (which happened a couple of times). I just deleted it a few days ago.
Changing a user's picture can be done in the Accounts preference pane in the System preferences.
Good luck

Hi Julius & Olivierl,
I had the programer look at the the RUSREXT program. We tried to run the program step-by-step but not knowing how to 1. point the program to look at the certificate file, 2. mapping the values from the file to the variables in the program. What should I fill in the fields on the screen below. This screem came up during the step-by-step run of the RUSREXT program
