Capture and restore USMT options

Hi ,
I have Config manager 2012 R2 with MDT 2013 integrated TS.
I have 3 files defined in 'Capture User State' as Miguser.xml, migdocs.xml and custom.xml using 'customize how user profiles are captured' options. While restoring user state, can I just choose 'Restore all captured user profiles with standard options'
or is it mandatory to have 'customize how user profiles are restored' option selected with defining 3 same files?
any pointers will be appreciated.
Regards,

Add all XML files you added before (at Capture State) to restore User Files and Settings step.
More details in the following article:

Exclude folders during capture and restore with USMT

Hi,
As of now i am using default configuration for USMT to do capture and restore. Its USMT 5.0 (ADK 8.0)for xp -win7 and USMT 6.3 (ADK 8.1) for win7-win7. I want to exclude some folder during capture and restore. Can anyone point me to right direction which files
to modify and how to use files with USMT once modified ?
Its a offline(Winpe) hardlink migration .
Any pointers will be appreciated. Thanks
Regards,

yes and you can make it an unconditional exclude also, or conditional if that suits you better, (for example if C:\Data\Temp exists, then exclude it...)
here's some examples of that

 <component type="Documents" context="System">
 <displayName _locID="miguser.userdata">Common Exclusions</displayName>
 <role role="Data">
 <rules>
 <unconditionalExclude>
 <objectSet>
 
 
 <pattern type="File">%CSIDL_PROGRAM_FILES%\* [*]</pattern>
 <pattern type="File">%CSIDL_PROGRAM_FILESX86%\* [*]</pattern>
 <pattern type="File">%CSIDL_DEFAULT_INTERNET_CACHE%\* [*]</pattern>
 <pattern type="File">C:\Users\*\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\* [*]</pattern>
 <pattern type="File">%CSIDL_WINDOWS%\Media\* [*]</pattern>
 <pattern type="File">C:\Drivers\*[*]</pattern>
 <pattern type="File">C:\MININT\*[*]</pattern>
 </objectSet>
 </unconditionalExclude>
 </rules>
 </role>
 </component>

 <component type="Documents" context="System">

Uefi Partitions capture and restore with ZCM 11.2.4

Hello Everybody,
I'm able to capture all my partitions from a Microsoft SurfacePro2 to my ZCM 11.2.4 appliance.
The restore however is the problem. When I boot my restored machine Windows 8.1 goes into recovery modus.
Anybody some suggestions on how to Image and Restore UEFI partitions in general or on SurfacePro2 in particular?
Kind regards,
Wilco

I have heard of issues with Surface Pros before.
There are two possible issues......
#1 - 8.1 Is Currently Not Supported in ZCM.
ZCM 11.3.0, which is expected to ship shortly, will not immediately add
8.1 support but it is expected to be added via an Add-On patch to 11.3.0
prior to 11.3.1
#2 - The Surface Pro's BIOS may hide some partitions, which could cause
the restore to not work quite correctly. When looking at the Disk
Details inside of the Imaging Environment, does it show the proper disk
geometry and full size. If parts of the disk are "missing", this can
cause issues during restore.

My iPhone will not turn on, when I plug it into my computer and load up iTunes its in recovery mode and the only option is to restore my device to factory settings. I have no back up of my phone I've also tried the home/sleep button thing but nothing

My iPhone 4 will not turn on, when I plug it into my computer and load up iTunes its in recovery mode and the only option is to restore my device to factory settings, I have no back up of my phone I've also tried the home/sleep button thing but nothing, I have literally done every method I was told, I checked for water damage and that's fine. I don't want to restore my phone or buy a new one or pay for repairs because that's wasting money when it could be a simple way to fix it. And yes, I've also tried charging it and turning it in. I really need some help with my phone

That does happen. It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system. If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.

My Iphone 5, was backed up and restored. Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option. Can anyone help please?

My IPhone 5, was backed up and restored. Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option. I have reinstalled ITunes but still this hasn't worked. Can anyone help please?

This problem started last year when ios 8 was released. I think apple is trying to force users to buy music on iTunes store and that's why it's impossible to sync other music and also that's the reason why they haven't solved this serious problem. That's really disappoints me and i'm angry with apple because i have like 10 gb of music in mp3 and i can't sync music from iTunes to my iPhone.

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session. 
Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" if you want to restore multiple windows. 
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
Another possibility is to use:

I restored my phone on iTunes, but when I did, all my info deleted and now it's my sister's old data. I tried to go back on iTunes and restore, but my original data isn't even an option. How do I get my old data back?

Before you did the resotore Via itunes you should of made a Back-up of your Data. But to be honest, i don't think that you would be able to get that stuff back.. Sorry mate

"Delete data and restore" option in Nokia N8

I want to restore my N8 to fresh state as I have installed and uninstalled too many apps and they all have created and left a lot of files on C drive even after uninstalling them. They have ocupied some space on C drive.
I am going for "Delete data and restore" option in phone management. I will back up all data with Nokia Suite before the procedure. I just want to know what all apps which are installed by default will be lost. Please enumerate every app or thing that will be lost.
I know that default wallpapers, songs will be lost. I'm interested in default apps only. Likes dictionary, Zip, Communicator, Video editor, Photo editor, My Nokia, Recorder, Shazam, Msg. reader, Adobe reader, Nat Geo, Movie Teasers, YouTube, E! etc. I have mentioned most here, may have missed some. Please enlist in detail.
Thanks a lot.
One more thing, this are should be improved by Nokia-uninstalling any app should remove it completely without any footprints.

If you go to this page (and are logged in to the store) you will find all apps your previously downloaded and these are the apps that will be removed when you do a full reset. You can re-install them again afterwards provided you have not done so 10 times before.
Please follow the steps below if you decide to completely reset your N8 and start with a fresh device:
If you have data on the N8-00 you wish to keep create a backup using Nokia Suite but when asked deselect the option to include settings in the backup. You can start a backup through Tools>Backup in the Nokia Suite menu.
Now disconnect your N8-00 from the PC and select the offline profile, press the on/off switch and from the menu which appears select and activate the profile offline.
Enter the code *#7370# followed by the security code 12345. Please be aware this reset may take a while. Your N8-00 will restart when finished.
After the N8-00 restarts go through the Device First Use sequence to setup the N8-00 correctly.
Now connect the N8-00 to your PC again and let Nokia Suite install the requires files on N8-00. After this (re)install the latest system update. When you go to the update screen in Nokia Suite your will either be presented by a system update or you can choose to re-install the current (up to date) version again.
After the update verify if there are any additional updates and install these as well.
After this you can restore the backup if you made one.

To capture all the objects from an tablespace and restore.

Hi All,
I have a situation in the Schema refresh process where i may have to delete a tablespace and its datafiles.
Then I have to recreate it as it was before and restore all it objects .
Is there any way that i can capture all the objects of that tablespace before it is deleted and then later restore it back as it was .
Any Expert sugggestion is highly apprciated .
The Platform is as below ..
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
CORE 11.2.0.2.0 Production
TNS for Linux: Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
Thanks In Advance .

There are 2 methods you could use with Data Pump.
1. tablespace mode export. expdp user/password tablespaces=<your list here> ...
2. transportable tablespace mode. expdp user/password transport_tablespaces=<your tablespace list here> ...
NOTE: for #2, you need to have your tablespaces in read only mode, then you need to copy the data files, and the
tablespaces need to be self contained.
Hope this helps.

Is there a way to restore to a prior point in time? I somehow lost all Tab Groups and Tabs...and Restore Previous Session is grey, so that's not an option.

I've gone through all support pages, and still can't find a solution. I'm needing to restore to a specific day/time period. I lost literally hundreds of hours of research...and MUST find a way to get those Tab Groups and Tabs restored.
Again, for some reason, the Restore Previous Session option is greyed out...and not an option.
From what I've read, there may be some files in the Firefox profile folder that can be used, but it's not clear the steps to take to see if this would do what I need, and before I mess with those files, etc... I'd really need someone from tech support to review all this and assist me.

You can try to restore a previous version of the sessionstore.js file.

After restoring from time machine, I get a screen with an apple, my user icon, and sleep, restart, and shut down options. When I click on my user icon, nothing happens.

Any suggestions?

Run through the list of general fixes here, perhaps one or more of them will get things to work again.
Step by Step to fix your Mac
If not you can likely retrieve your files this way, if they are not encrypted,
Create a data recovery, undelete boot drive
then use Step #20 in the above link to reinstall everything and return those files
Think about having alternate backup and restore options to avoid this type of issue.
