Cannot set up or modify backup for client computers.

I am running Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials and was able to set up back ups for all of my machines when I initially set up the network. All backups were running fine.
I have added a disk drive to one of my machines and correctly started receiving messages that the drive should be added to the backup. When I try to customize the backup for the machine I get an error pop up with the message ""The
task "Customize Backup for the computer" did not complete successfully"". I tried all of my other machines and get the same message.
I also needed to reconnect a machine to the server and in doing so had to disconnect it from the server, losing the backups stored and now I get the message ""The task "Set up Backup for the computer" did not complete successfully""
and cannot backup this computer.
I have checked all of the logs and cannot find any definitive errors occurring at the times I have tried to modify or set up backups. Can anyone help?
Since originally asking this question, the Server 2012 R2 Update applied and now I no longer have Client's, User's or Storage listed on the tabs in the dashboard so I do not know if backups are being done or not. I tried to run the connector on the clients
but get a forbidden error when I try to connect to the link. does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct these errors?

Hi,
Before going further, would you please let me know if the client computers are dynamic disks? Please understand that Windows Server 2012 Essentials does not support backing up and restoring
dynamic disks on client computers. In addition, if the client backup folder is on the storage pool? At this time, please also run the Windows Server 2012 Essentials BPA to have a general health check on the server, for details, there is a link for your reference:
Run the Windows Server 2012 Essentials Best Practices Analyzer

Hope this helps.

I cannot select the last iPhone backup for a new iPhone restore

why
i cannot select the last iPhone backup for a new iPhone restore?

Hey quarterback45,
Thanks for the question. This usually occurs when your new iPhone is on a earlier iOS version than that of which the backup was created with:
iOS: Unable to restore from backup of a newer device

Cannot set Use only this server for iCloud mail

Each new versions of OS X add more bells and whistles and brings us closer to the fun that made me move away from Windows, 9 years ago!
So this update appears to have problems saving my setting and mail is really having problems.
I have 7 accounts and each has thier own SMTP out going mail server which I set in the Edit SMTP Server List.
For some reason my iCloud account has lost this setting and now when I try to set it Mail tells me it cannot save the setting while the Incomming mail server is empty.
But iCloud sets it's own incomming server! I cannot change the setting!
I'm very disapointed with the way the quality of OS X has dropped with each new release. I'll soon be back sitting up all night trying to keep the Mac working just like I did in the bad old days with Windows, only with less money in my pocket!

Hi there
If you have more than one Mail account on more then one server, you can select the server from which you want to sent the mail. If you select "Use only this server" you can't select the smtp server on sending. thats all

Cannot set an app as default for opening certain file type

I'm using "MIRaw Viewer" 1.4.3 app to check my RAW video footage from a Canon 5D Mark III + Magic Lantern. I want to open all of these .RAW files with MlRaw Viewer by default. But when I tried to do that on the info window, I get the (-1083) error. I've searching for a solution both on the forum and on the internet, but the solutions I found are notr working for me. I've repaired disk permissions, repaired the disk with disk utility while booting and reseting lanch services on terminal with no luck.
Any help appreciated.

Oh yeah, didn't notice that. I'm getting old .
You can change the icon to whatever you want by:
1. Opening the image you want the icon to be.
2. Copy the image to the clipboard.
3. Open the Get Info window for the item you want to change the icon for.
4. Select the icon in the upper left, so it's highlighted.
5. Paste the other image.
The desired image will now be the icon.
I also think you can force it to re-do the icon by making a change to the file and saving it. (i'm not that familiar with VLC, so i'm not sure what you can easily change like that).
Good luck!

Exchange Server 2010 - Receive Connector for Client Computers

I have one customer with a SBS 2011 with Exchange Server 2010 - a pretty standard setup except for some customisation with Receive Connectors in order to cater for an application which is installed on a number of computers that requires to use an SMTP Server
to send notifications. In order to accomplish this (allow to be sent using Exchange Server) we added the IP Address of client computer (which we also set as a DHCP reservation) to a pre-configured Receive Connector (Anonymous setup for Printer/Scanner).
This worked fine, but we now find that there are other applications that require the same function to use SMTP to send.
How should/could this be better configured so an application can send if they authenticate?

Hi
For this you need to create a seperate receive connector to be used for Relay in your organizations.
Follow the below steps
1) Create a dedicated Relay Receive Connector
2) Add only the Ip addresses of the applications which needs to relay on Exchange servers
3) You can use either anonymous or authenticated relay according to your relay config
You can follow the below link as well

Setting up a WPA PSK for two computers

Last night my router was struck by lightening and no longer works (I didn't realize it was not connected to a surge protector. Everything else I do believe is). Fortunately, I had my old router, Linksys Wireless-B Model No. BEFW11S4 ver.4, that I plugged in. It connects to the modem just fine. I have two laptops. One's mine and one's my mom's. When the wireless is unsecure they both connect, but when I put in a WPA-PSK the only computer that connects is the one where the password was created on (I tried this on both laptops). Is there a way to get both computers to connect?
For more help, my computer is a Lenovo running Windows Vista and my mom's is an HP running Windows 7.
Firmware on the router is 1.50.10.
Firmware Version: 1.50.10
You'll probably tell me to go buy a new router which I plan on doing but this is a temporary fix.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I ended up buying a new router today as the old one wasn't cutting it even for just one computer. I did buy a Linksys E800. It's working fine. I found out that the reason the other computer wasn't connecting was because I had used the same name for the router and it was bringing up the old settings. I set up a key for the new router and transferred to the other computer so they both have the same settings and able to connect.

What is error 111111? I cannot download any song. Same for both computers

One computer is XP and the other Vista. So there is no issue with Vista.
The older, XP, computer worked fine until recently, so I doubt it's any type of conflict. The newer one I have never made a purchase on. (First attempt results in above error message.)
Error 111111 says to please try again later, but that never helps. Have made several attempts.
The store said I have two accounts and to authorize both of them. Did that and still get the same error.

Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

Can I set gmail as my default email client?

I am having trouble with Apple Mail and would prefer to use gmail as my default email client. Is there any way to do that in aperture?

Gmail is not a Mail Client. It's a mail service that needs a client to access it. That client can be a Web Browser, or an app like Mail, Entourage, Thunderbird etc. So, no you cannot set Gmail as the default email client. It's a bit like saying can I make HBO my Television Set.
If you want to use an app as default mail client in Aperture then the chosen app has to be scriptable, and that limits your options. There are only four supported: Mail, Entourage, AOL and Eudora.
Alternatively, you can access the Library from any Mail client or service via their Attach options:
In any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.

*+(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)+*
Or any Media Browser.

Having one iTunes music library for multiple computers via TimeCapsule

Hi there,
I'm just wondering how to best set-up my iTunes library. I want the library on my TimeCapsule wireless hard drive, and to be able to set this as the library for multiple computers at home. It's a waste of space to have duplicate libraries on both computers.I had this working with an earlier version of iTunes, but its not working now.
I also want to know how I can get the wireless device to fire up simply by pressing the iTunes icon. If I do this without, iTunes says it can't find the library.
Thanks.

Frank, yes. Only one library of the songs and content if it's stuff from the Music Store.
If the music is your own CD rips, then you can put all the music on a central server and have all the computers connect in on your home network.
You do NOT set your iTunes to share their libraries, or look for shared libraries, you manually do the drag-and-drop with your networked music folder into the iTunes library window and each copy of iTunes behaves as if the network volume is it's own.
The only shortcoming to this is if you add music with one machine, the others will NOT have the new songs added to their own library lists unless you drag and drop the songs into the iTunes library manually for each computer.
I have enough music that I have broken down the library list into five folders, A-E, F-J, K-O, P-T, and U-Z. When I add new songs, the folders they're in will be added at the root Music Library folder level, so I can refresh the libraries with the new music THEN manually file it into one of those five correct folders.
This is what my network library looks like:
http://home.comcast.net/~foodandart/Network%20Library.jpg - you can see that I haven't added the Clapton, BBC, Roxy Music, etc, to the library lists for the entire house.
The G4 frankenbeast computer in our living room, is the media server for the house and has the stereo system rigged through it and is used to rip vinyl and watch the video. I still have to refresh the libraries in my husband's laptop, and on my main internet computer, so those albums haven't been filed yet.
Of course the caveat here is that I haven't a single item that's purchased through the Music Store and thusly locked down, since I rip my own LP's and CD's, so everything is much more flexible in how I can handle it.
Deb.

[SOLVED] cannot set keyboard for X clients

Hi everyone,
I just set up Arch on my Samsung NC20 a few days ago after a couple of years on Ubuntu. I'm enjoying it so far, but I've run into the following problem. I've tried to set my keyboard to 'uk' but I only get a UK keyboard at login time. As soon as I launch an X client, I am back with a US keyboard. (In case it matters, I've mainly been using wmii, LilyTerm, and Firefox. I have no desktop.)
My /etc/vconsole.conf file reads
KEYMAP=uk
and I set up a file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-keyboard-locale.conf that reads as follows:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Keyboard Defaults"
MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
Option "XkbLayout" "uk"
EndSection
The option 'uk' is indeed present on my machine (although I tried 'gb' too, to no avail). When I look in /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty I find uk.map.gz; and I get a UK keyboard when I log in, as I said.
One weird thing is that if I run
setxkbmap -layout uk
from the command line in LilyTerm, I get the following:
No protocol specified
Cannot open display ":0"
I don't know if that's relevant.
Can anyone help? How can I set my keyboard to 'uk' for X clients?
Best,
PaulE
Last edited by PaulE (2012-12-21 22:16:05)

As far as I know, there is no uk layout for xorg and keymap ≠ X keyboard layout. Always check /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst.
cat /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst | grep UK
gb English (UK) # keyboard layout (following lines are variants)
extd gb: English (UK, extended WinKeys)
intl gb: English (UK, international with dead keys)
dvorak gb: English (UK, Dvorak)
dvorakukp gb: English (UK, Dvorak with UK punctuation)
mac gb: English (UK, Macintosh)
mac_intl gb: English (UK, Macintosh international)
colemak gb: English (UK, Colemak)
Try adding setxkbmap -layout gb to your .xinitrc file and see if it solves the problem.
EDIT: Added a comment to the first line of output.

Lookout 6.1 Backup server not picking up all drivers for client links

We are running Lookout 6.1. We have a server and four clients, with one fo the clients acting as the backup server when the server goes down. We have been making loads of changes lately and decided to test by closing lookout on the server and we found the backup seemed to successfully pick up control, but while it had items we had created/ modified (buttons for modbus commands and feedback information from drives), it did not have the connection to the linked drives for command and feddback. while it was missing recent items it still had items present from years past that did function and feedback correctly, all things being on the same TCP/IP network. it seems we may not have all the correct info being backed up in a timely manner to the correct place on the backup server. Is the SQL file in the lookout\database folder an important part of this? can i simply shut down SQL processes via task manager and then copy the 1.15GB sql file over top of the 850MB sql file on the backup server? when instructed to have a COPY of the L4P primary file from the server computer in the standby computer, which one could it be. there are several, and the dates seem to be older. i am sure there is more...

The hypertrend use Citadel service to transfer the data between computer, while the live data is different, so your problem is probably in networking setting or firewall.
If you have firewall on either computer, follow these KBs.
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/0D7B86F4B4D19A5E86256F9A006EECB1?OpenDocument
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/8AE45BBFA1D7025E862570F200642FD8?OpenDocument
Lookout client software doesn't install MAX.exe, but if you have MAX.exe on the client computer, you can use MAX to check the connection. In MAX, try to view the remote trace.
You can also use the NI Hypertrend ActiveX object to check the connection. Create a client process with just a NI Hypertrend ActiveX object. Move it to client computer. Edit its properties and add a trace, then try to view the remote trace. See the attached screenshot. If the Citadel communication has problem, you will not see the database or the trace.
The ActiveX object doesn't fix the problem, but can tell you whether the remote connection is good or not.

Office 2013 Pro - Error Message - I cannot set Office 2013 as the default mail client

I have a number of PCs on a single domain in the same office all running Windows 7 Pro. Some at 64 bit and some are 32 bit depending on their age.
My issue is that on upgrading from Officer 2010 Pro to Office 2013 Pro, the only application I have a problem with is Outlook 2013, and only on the 64 bit machines.   The upgrade on 32 bit machine goes perfectly.   On both I install the
32 bit version of Office 2013 as per the MS notes.
When the 64 bit machines reboot and the user logs on I get the message, sometimes twice:
Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfil the message request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set it as the default mail client.
OK, so this should be straight forward:
I set outlook at the default mail client and associate all file with it from Outlook\File\Option. Nope. That does not work.
I go through default programs and set the default mail client as Office 2013 and associate all file with it from Outlook.   Nope. That does not work.
I check the registry and it shows that the 64 bit or 32 bit reversion is the default mail client. So that does not help.
I install the 64 bit version instead of the 32 bit version. Nope. That does not work.
I clean the registry and temp file. Nope. That does not work.
I set a new mail profile for the user. Nope. That does not work.
Odd that it only upgrades smoothly on the 32 bit machines.
Has anyone got any ideas?   All the suggested fixes on this forum do not fix this issue.

Hello.
Same problem, nothing Works!!!
Help please, really frustrated and angry.
Added written above I tried:
Uninstalled with the Microsoft fix uninstall
and reinstall. This does not work.
Contact the phone technical support. This
does not work.
Addin,s does not work. Adobe, iCloud Addin .... does not work.
'Send email to'   menu does not work.
No application communicates with
Outlook, no Microsoft or third apps.
I can only send and receive emails
from within Outlook.
This program is lousy, any
possibility that my money back.
Thanks
