Changing default shortcut in application

Hi Experts :-)
I have a application, which automatically put a shortcut on both desktop and start menu. All Fine
But - i want this shortcut to be run with a set of parameters (xxxx.exe /yyyy /ccc)
What is best way to make this?
My first thought was to make a ekstra package containing a .bat which simply overwrite my custom shortcut with the default shortcut on the desktop after deployment.
Is there a better way to do this?
It would be nice if my application could handle this in some way :-)

You can do this by creating simple batch to replace the existing shortcut with new one but if you are aiming this on all computers /Users who ever have got the application installed, i would recommend ed to do this while creating msi package using your own
tools (install shield etc).
You can use simple vb script to do this from blog

Changing default database and application passwords

Hi,
We have default passwords for our newly configured Oracle ERP (R12).
I have a concern regarding the changing of default password. Does changing the default passwords will have any effect on normal working of ERP and database.
I know that we shouldn't change default APPLSYSPUB password. What about the following default passwords?
a) Default accounts having default password in database (DBA_USERS):
CTX SYS
OLAPSYS
DBSNMP
DMSYS
GL (oracle users .e.g AP, GL, AR)
APPLSYSPUB
OUTLN
PERFSTAT
SYS
b) Default accounts present in Oracle Application (FND_USERS) :
IBE_GUEST
OP_CUST_CARE_ADMIN
ASGADM
MOBILEADM
APPSMGR
IBEGUEST
OP_SYSADMIN
AUTOINSTALL
WIZARD
IEXADMIN
ASGUEST
IBE_ADMIN
ERP version : 12.1.2
Database Version: 11.2.0.1
Thanks in advance.

Gaurav

Hi Gaurav,
Yes as stated by Srini, It's highly recommended that you change tyhe default password in order to safeguard your instance by outside threats.
But please be cautious as you cant change these accounts as "alter user <username> identified by <new password>", but rather use FNDCPASS utility. I advice you to check on the TEST system before implementing on the PROD instance if you dont have prior experience using FNDCPSAS.
Please also refer notes:

How Can I Change Default Mail Account in Mail Application?

I have 2 Gmail accounts. Gmail1 and Gmail2. When I changed the password of my Gmail1 account - which used to be my default mail account - it changed in the Mail application so that now Gmail2 is my default mail account.
I know that usually you can go
Preferences -> Accounts -> And on the list on the left you can just drag the mail account you want to be the default account to the top of the list. But it doesn't work. It's just not possible to move them around on the list, they are all stuck.
Can anyone help me understand why I can't reorder my mail accounts, or if there is another way to which I can change my default mail account?
Thanks.

Hey wilhel10002,
Thanks for the question. My answer to your question relies on what you determine to be the default account. If it is simply which account is at the top of the list, yes you can re-order the accounts in the sidebar as needed (not from Mail > Preferences > Accounts).
However, I personally perceive the default account as the account that I send new messages from. This behavior can be adjusted in Mail > Preferences > Composing > Send new messages from
Mail (Mountain Lion): Composing preferences

Changing default printing shortcuts

I want to change the default printing shortcut. It is currently set to "General Everyday Printing". I would like to change it to "Fast/Economical Printng". When I go to Preferences, Printing Shortcuts tab, and click on "Fast/Economical Printing" there is no option to make this the default shortcut. When I click on "General Everyday Printing", change the features to resemble Fast & Economical printing, it will only save the new features under a new name, but not as a default.
I have an All in One J6480

Binary Zen,
Thanks, but that only works for the currently selected Printing Shortcut. Following your instructions for , say, "General everyday Printing", after going back into the Printing Preferences afer saving, if you select another Printing Shortcut (say "Fast/Economical Printing") and then back onto "General everyday Printing", the papaer size reverts to "Letter".
Like most people in the UK, I NEVER use "Leeter" size paper. Why is there no way to save changes to the default "Printing Shortcuts" in Vista (I believe you can in XP)? If I pick any of the shortcuts, I have to remember to change the paper size each time.
I have been in lengthy conversations with HP support staff, and the best they can come up with is to use the generic c990 printer driver (which obviously has limited functionality).

How do I change default applications for specific extensions like .php

Every time I click on a .php or .html file it opens Adobe GoLive. Every time I click on a .psd file it opens up Photoshop.
I find this to be a complete pain because I rarely work in those applicaitons -- preferring quicker loading applications like Preview & TextWrangler which do most of what I want done with those files.
Is there any way to set my Apple system to default to those applications based on what extension of file I'm trying to open?
Thanks for all of your help.

Changing default control values in LV application?

Can anyone help me?
Is it possible to change default control values in LV program
programmatically?
Sergey Yakovlev, Berlin,

Its quite complex (in my opinion) to do so programically , but using a set of invoke nodes, you can get it done ('Make this value default'). Look at the attached for info (its a large link name, so you may have to copy and paste in your browser).

Shortcuts within applications. How limited are they?

I'm looking for shortcuts within applications e.g. to navigate through toolbars. Do they exist?
I'm used to using the keyboard without a mouse. How can I get to insert bullet points into a Word document, for example, without having to mouse through menus. The same with Excel, how can I insert or delete rows, for example without stopping what I'm doing and picking up the mouse.
I know there are some shortcuts, but these seem to be really limited compared to the functions I'm used to being able able to access without changing tools for keyboard to mouse. I don't even have a mouse, just a trackpad. I haven't used a mouse for years, and I've learnt to shortcut nearly everywhere in Windows, just using the trackpad occasionally. Shortcuts are really much quicker and do not interrupt your workflow like using a mouse.
Another example would be using the alt key to jump to the file menus, or highlight the shortcut keys available on any given window or information dialogue.
Are Apple really behind in implementing this kind of convenience, or is there something I'm missing?
Thanks in advance

The only way I know to do what you describe, that can work in all applications, is to get a third-party macro-creating utility. I know of two that work on Mac computers. One (whose name I don't recall right now) is free of charge but hard to use, and not very powerful; it cannot override a shortcut put in the application by the software company, for example making the F1 key do something other than open a "Help" screen. The other is called QuicKeys. You can download it at no charge and use it for 30 days while you decide whether to buy it. After that, it becomes essentially useless unless you buy an activation key (for about $60 U.S.). I could barely work without it, because I—like you—use keyboard shortcuts to do all sorts of things (hundreds of times in a typical day).
I'm assuming that you have already tried System Preferences--> Keyboard & Mouse --> Keyboard Shortcuts tab, which can do some of the things you describe. It is part of the Mac operating system. It is a bit tricky to figure out, but can be helpful if you don't want to buy (and learn how to use) a third-party utility for this purpose.

How to change default Ovi Player store ...

Hi,
I need help from you people.
I had installed Ovi Player. Whenever I try to open Ovi Player, the default store gets’ open is "India". I change the store location to "Germany". When I do the search for particular music, it will again take me to "India" store instead of "Germany" store. In addition, most annoying is that I have to re-login but my user id and password will not work as its different store. Also when I go via music.nokia.de and try to login, it open Ovi player and since default location is "India", it takes me to India store and my login credentials do not work.
I ask Nokia care on how to change default Ovi Player Store location but they are unable to provide any good answer.
I already un-install / re-installed but won't work. Do any of you have answer to my problem? I want my default Ovi Player location to be "Germany" instead of "India".
More information, my regional settings have location as “Germany” and language as “English”.
Please help.
Thanks for your response.

Go to Solution.

I had got message from Nokia on how to correct this issue. This had solved the problem. Below is the mail from them ...
Dear Chakraborty,
Thank you for your response.
This error is sometimes caused by a corrupted MDataStore.db3 file used by the Ovi Player. This file will need to be deleted with the Ovi Player closed. Then open the player and the datastore file will be rewritten by the application:
Close Ovi Music Player and delete the MDataStore.db3 file:
Vista C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Nokia\Nokia Data Store\DataBase\MDataStore.db3
XP C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Nokia\Nokia Data Store\DataBase\MDataStore.db3
Both of these locations are in hidden folders. So, to view them users will need to:
Open Windows Explorer > Tools > Folder Options > View > Show Hidden Files and Folders
Once Ovi Music is opened again the MDataStore.db3 file will be rewritten to this folder.
  After that manipulation try to install the Ovi Player once again:

How do you change the shortcut keys for Firefox in Welsh For Mac?

I'm using Firefox in Welsh on Mac (asking in English to hopefully get more answers), and every time I try to do the shortcut for copy (cmd+C), it hides the window (since Hide in Welsh is Cuddio, the shorcut for that is now Cmd+C). I usually forget this, and proceed with using the shortcut for copy only to anger myself when I realise that I've hidden the window.
My question is, how do you change the shortcut keys on Firefox so then I can change the Hide shortcut and give Copy the cmd+C shortcut? I'm also using OpenOffice.org in Welsh, and they are using cmd+C for copy and cmd+H for Hide.
Is there any way that I could do this myself? Its rather annoying for me, and its rather weird to use Cmd+X for Cutting text instead of copying.
Thanks.

This could be worth a bug. It shouldn't happen that some shortcut keys get (re)used for other actions and Cmd + C should be considered as one of them.
You can try to make the change in this file: cy.jar/locale/browser/baseMenuOverlay.dtd
<pre><nowiki><!ENTITY hideThisAppCmdMac.label "Cuddio &brandShortName;">
<!ENTITY hideThisAppCmdMac.commandkey "C"></nowiki></pre>
English language pack: en-GB.jar/locale/browser/baseMenuOverlay.dtd
<pre><nowiki><!ENTITY hideThisAppCmdMac.label "Hide &brandShortName;">
<!ENTITY hideThisAppCmdMac.commandkey "H"></nowiki></pre>
You can find the file cy.jar in the chrome folder in the Firefox application folder.<br />
The file cy.jar is a ZIP archive, so you need a program that can open such an archive and edit the file baseMenuOverlay.dtd.
I'm not on a Mac, so can't do any testing in this matter. I just downloaded the Welsh (cy.xpi) language pack for Mac and had a look in it.

N8 backlight wont turn off and cant change default...

hi guys
---i got little problem here. my display backlight turns off only when I lock the phone-with button,or automaticly. I think it is suppose to turn off after the time that i can set in settings-> phone->display-light time out(5sec to 60 sec). its not a huge problem,i can always just use the button,or set screen/key lock time to minimal limit (60sec), but anyway,its **bleep** me of...fyi-> no app is runnung in background
--- than,I cant really change my default browser. of course i changed my default browser in applications setting to Opera mobile,but everytime i,lets say, click on some link on facebook (doesnt matter if i use SNAPTU or SOCIAL NETWORKS app) it opens default browser...
yeah,and just for inspiration- what facebook client do you recommend? default one is quiet good only if it would show notifications....

This is the intentional behavior! The backlight only turns off if the display/key lock is active! Light time out (5 to 60sec) is only for lowering the brightness!
About the default application thing, this happens here too. Its a bug Can you report it using that form please?! http://www.forum.nokia.com/forms/Report_a_bug.xhtml
