Can I set a default Playback preference for multiple users on same PC?

I am setting up an editing suite for our University which has a "per machine" Creative Cloud licence. It is a PC installation. This machine will be used by a class of students who will log in with their own credentials. I need to set the preferences for Premiere (video output, workspace layout, default drives etc) so that it will be the same for all users logging in since we want a consistent setup for teaching purposes and dont want to have to help each student set up so that it shows correctly on the monitors. Is there a way of saving this setting as the default for every user? In particular, as we have dual monitors, we want to save the preferences - Playback to always appear on the second monitor. This is really important for us - I need an answer before building more suites.
(Adobe won't let me ask them directly, so I have to wait for someone to provide an anwser on the forums... not great customer support in my book)

Firstly...is this editing suite for the purpose of teaching editing or something else?
Next ...what is your experience with PPRo?
You can set up the machine(s) initially exactly how you want them in regards to hardware and screen layouts etc. Thats easy and can be called..'University of Waikato Default Edit Workspace' for example. That is only part of it though.
You can set up and share a common Key Board Short cut Preference File. Same as Export Presets.
There is no way you can "Default" all the USERS stuff for individual unique projects though without creating a massive potential for disaster and confusion.
Each will need to have access to many separate drive locations for their media (audio, graphics, footage) and the knowledge to create, access and locate it.
THey will each need a separate Location for their Projects as well as their media.
If they are editing students...they should be taught how to set up everything for themselves so they have an understanding of the fundamentals and basic s of NLEs

How to set different default interactive reports for different user groups?

I'm probably overlooking an obvious solution, but how do I set different default interactive report for different user groups?
For the same interactive report, I want one set of users to see a default where the default filter is based on column X. However, another group of users doesn't have authorization to see that column so I need to set the default filter to something else for them.
Thanks

You can set a filter on a report in a URL - would that help? I think with apex 4.x you can also link to a saved default report or alternative report...

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 do I set the default welcome page for PUBLIC user

gurus,
i'm using -
Oracle 9i Database
Oracle 9ias Portal Release 2
QUESTION => how do I set the default welcome page for the PUBLIC user.
i did the following to achieve this -
1. logged into portal
2. clicked on builder
3. clicked on administer tab
4. selected PUBLIC user in the Portal User Profile portlet
5. went to the preferences tab
6. in the default home page selected a custom page group
7. logged out of portal
8. open a new browsere session
9. type the portal URL and i get the login page ....??
i'm unable to understand this behavior ... shouldn't i be getting the page group that i set for the PUBLIC user in step 6 above ....
the second QUESTION is => when the user logs out he/she should see the PUBLIC page set in step 6 above ... but, instead the user sees a page that is as follows -
Partner Application Name Logout Status [Logout Status]
Oracle Portal (portal) logout status
The SSO Server (orasso) checkmark
buzz.resva.trw.com:7778 checkmark
infrastructure.happy.resva.trw.com checkmark
portal1.buzz.resva.trw.com checkmark
portal2.sylvester.resva.trw.com checkmark
sylvester.resva.trw.com:7778 checkmark
so, how can i set the default page for the PUBLIC user and also a page when he user logs out.
ideas anyone ....?
thanx a bunch.
hero

Hi,
The sequence of operation you are doing to set the home page for public users is correct. You are getting the login screen as the "custom page group" selected as "home page" has not been granted to public.
Also, while logging-out, it is normal behaviour to get the screen where it shows the list of partner applications from where user has been logged-out. When you click on "Return" button, you will get to the "home page" set above.
Hope it clarifies the things.

How can I create a folders of apps for multiple users?

I use several iPads with my students and would like to set up a folder for each student. I want to place "an alias" of each app the student uses in their folder. On my Mac, I can "make alias" and place aliases in seperate folders. How can I do that on my iPad? Thanks!

You can drag one app on top of another and make a folder. However the limit to this is, for your situation, there can be no sharing of apps....the app Fred can only be in one folder because it's only on the device once. (so it may not work for what you need)
and I cannot recall if you can edit the name of the folder.
Unfortunately, for situations like yours, the iPad was created to be a single user device, so there's really not support for multiple users or multiple levels of access.

Best way to set up a Mac laptop for multiple users with AD logins

I am setting up a MacBook Pro running 10.4.11 that will be used as a "loaner" notebook for meetings, etc. The computer will be used internally at our company, so users will be logged into our network. Active Directory is set up on this computer to allow all domain users to log in using their own user name and password; this approach helps meet our company's security standards (we want to avoid using one common login or account for all users).
While this approach seems to fit our needs, it causes problems when it comes to running applications. For instance, each new user is prompted to enter first-time usage information when launching an application (forcing them to contemplate registration information, various settings, etc.). I've given "everyone" read-write privileges to the HD > Library and the Applications folder, but this does not solve anything and may not be a good approach anyway.
I would welcome any advice on the best way to set up this computer for multiple users logging in via Active Directory. Thanks!

Where are you installing the third party applications? It sounds like they are being installed in the 'User 1' account, rather than the /Applications folder (admin or not, one user normally can not see into another user's folders). Repairing permissions only works for applications that have a file in /Library/Receipts, not on folders in general, so you would need to check the permissions for the folders in question.

Triggering a sub work flow for multiple users at same time.

I have a scenario in which I have created sub workflow as an activity for approval process. This sub work flow should be triggered for multiple users at the same time and their decison is independent of each other.
This is like creating multipe instance of the same sub work flow and then the sub work flow runs indepedently as a new work flow for each of the approver and the process is completeded for approver independently.
How can this be achieved?

Tyr to do like this,
1. First include the subworkflow in the main workflow template.
2. Now include standard Block Step in the main workflow template.
3. In the block select the block type as ParForEach.
4. Before doing the 3rd point make sure that all the agents for whom you want whom you want to initiate the workflow, populate them in a Multiline conatiner element.
5. Once completing 3rd and 4th points open the block step under the tab ParallelProcessing assign the multiline container element name in the for e;g if the multi line container element name is COSTCENTER then do the binding like below. the conatiner element COSTCENTERLINE is created by default once you include the multi line conatiner element under parller processing tab.
&COSTCENTER[&_WF_PARFOREACH_INDEX&]& --------> &_COSTCENTER_LINE&
Now assign the agent of the subworkflow as COSTCENTERLINE , imean if suppose you have 3 entries in the internal table then three separate and for three different agents the workflow is instantiated.

How to restrict login for multiple users having same Role

Our Web Application is deployed on Tomcat 5.5
The requirement is ?
There are roles in application like "operator", "admin"?
There are multiple users created for each of the above role.
When one user of "operator" role is logged in, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, if user did not log out & application gets close, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, it should not allow to login for multiple requests of same user
(using another browser instance...)
Is it possible using session object?
But, using session object, it will create separate objects for different users,
So here I will not be able to restrict session object creation rolewise.
Also, how to retrieve these multiple session objects created for different users on server?
If anyone is having the solution please reply as soon as possible,
Thank you.

To tell you the truth, this is a stupid requirement. It must be an extremely fragile application.
In any case, you will have to write your stuff for that. Probably a filter that on login, logout, and session expiration checks, makes, or removes entries in a DB (using a synchronized resource to prevent race conditions) or possibly even simply in an application context object.

How can I set the default save format for photoshop edited photos?

I just spotted that some of my photos that I've edited in Photoshop from Lightroom are a whopping 450MB. Looking deeper I found that they are saved as uncompressed TIFF files, this despite the default save format for Photoshop in Lightroom's preferences being set to ZIP compressed TIFF files. So why doesn't this setting work and how can I make Photoshop save things compressed?

Sounds funny but first tell us what version of PS you have, what version of Lr and which OS. Thanks.

How can I set a default save file for scans using the Solution Center?

Using Windows 7 - 64 bit. HP Photosmart Premuim C-309a All-In-One Printer.
Because of a Windows crash, I had to install a new drive and reload Windows. I also reloaded other software like the HP Solution Center & Drivers. My problem is that I can't find how to set a default folder for my scans. This is NOT mentioned in the user manual but it was originally accomplished by HP Tech Support when the printer was new. Can anyone relate how to set default folders for my scans?
Thanks.
Tango
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Here is a document on how to scan through Windows 7.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c03476857
Click either solution center or the icon of the printer on your desktop. Here select "Scanner Actions" (or the analogous selection). When the window pops up from the HP software it should provide you with options for file type (.tiff, .pdf, .jpg) as well as resolution and media size. Here on this page there is also an option for you to go to the advanced options. Using this you can alter the default safe folder.
Let me know if that helps you out!

How to set the default web site for WGM users

Hi,
In Tiger server there was a place to input the URL of the default web page for all browsers when users logged into network home folders. This was really helpful and saved a bunch of bandwidth and class time. Is there any way to do this in Leopard server? If so, please point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
..Tom

Antonio, Thanks! That seems to have worked for Safari. However, we like Firefox too, and I tried to set that up the same way, but was told "can't find a manifest for that app". I wonder if I can copy the Safari list then alter and rename it?

Edit defaults mode , Preferences for all users.

Hi,
Iam working on an portlet app as part of it am planning to make the portlet application as jsr 168 compliant.
I have few questions regarding the jsr 168 stuff.
a) what versions of Bea portal do support the jsr 168 portlets it is it available for download todo some investigation.
b) This is an question related to preferences - For example Suppose user "A" publshes the portlet and another logged in user views the portlet he should see the same set of preferences or the defaults set by the user "A" . Some portals like Oracle portal achieve this by supporting a mode called Edit Defaults mode. How do i achieve this in a Portal which doesn't support edit defaults but it is JSR compliant. In other words the prefences set by the user "A" should be available to user "B" , how does i achieve this functionality in other portals. Note Edit defaults mode is an custom mode supported by the JSR 168 API it is not a mandatory mode like the Edit, View or Help .
Thanks in Advance.

Can I set up a pro forma for multiple images

Hi all
Well I am a newbie to Keynote and I am really enjoying using it.
I am trying to set up a pro forma for class photos at a school, the photos have been handed to me by the teachers but are all slightly different sizes.
My question is can I set up some sort of master document where I can place the photos (head shots) of the students with their names under them ready for a keynote display and have the photos all the same size without editing them separately.
I need to be able to remove photos occasionally too (ie if they are absent etc) so would need it to be a 'changeable' master rather than a screen shot. The amount of students in each class varies from 15 to 29 so I would need to accommodate the 29 with names under them and a heading somewhere on the page.
Is it doable? Do I do it straight into the keynote or onto a pages document first?
Thanks in advance for any help advice you can give.
Regards
Alitheste

The Mac OS X Mail application has a "Junk" function that works locally, on the Mac, and just puts emails from previously designated "junk" addresses into a separete folder, so you don't have to wade thru all that spam in your Inbox. It's a very elegant and simple, local solution, that I dearly miss on iOS.
I did submit a request for it at Apple Feedback page.

Shared Photo & Music Libraries for Multiple Users on Same Machine

I've setup multiple users on a single machine and I'm trying to have a common shared folder for photos (w/ Adobe PSE) and music (w/ iTunes). First, on photos:
-Tried setting up a folder on /users/shared/pictures. How can I "share" the main folder and have permissions carry down to all subfolders and files?
-I've given the other user permission, but when logged on, Finder window only displays icon, not preview of image? In cover flow mode, image shows up, though?
-Is this the best approach or is /me/public the better way or /me/pictures (shared) a better way?
And then on music:
-recommendations on best approach to have a single library with multiple users and multiple iTunes accounts.
Thanks in advance

The iTunes sharing is for sharing music between computers on a network.
To share music on a single PC, read this article

Flash Player For Multiple Users On Same Computer

While surfing. I got a message to update Flash Player. When I
did, issues began to occur for other users on my home computer. The
adminstrator could view web pages with Flash content, but no other
users could, including other adminstrators on the computer. After
looking at support documents, I uninstalled the flashplayer - then,
reinstalled using a different administrator id. Now, that id can
view Flash and no others can. I have tried changing screensavers as
suggested in another support document, but no luck. How do I get
Flash to work for all users?

It might be a permission problem in the Flash Player install folder. Try a clean install on the original machine.
If that does not resolve your problem, can you tell what Windows version & edition you are using?
Also check the permissions of all files in
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
C:\Windows\Syswow64\Macromed\Flash
