Computer lists for anyone logging in

Why does ARD not share the computer lists for any user logging into the server computer? Since ARD is listed as server software, not client software, I would think that when adding clients to the computer list, this list would be available to anyone logging into the server computer, not just the user who added the client. This causes inconsistencies when collecting reports on the client computers.

Besides putting a feature request/bug report in (which I already have done) is there any way to have this done myself? I seem to remember that there was a third-party application available a while back that may have been able to automatically share this list with different users but I can't seem to find it now. Has anyone heard of this?
I tried moving the list from ~/Library/Preferences to /Library/Preferences and then setting up a symbolic link. Once ARD quit, it overwrote the symbolic link with a new file.

  • For Anyone Having Problems Connecting Ipod to Itunes/My Computer

    I have just spent all day trying to get my new Ipod Nano sync'd.
    Just attempted unplugging my Printer and other devices so that only my mouse was left. I plugged my Ipod in and it worked. So basically I don't think it likes my printer being plugged in at the same time as it.
    Worth a go for anyone pulling their hair out like I was.

    "She also told me that if that didn't work, that I should get a PCI card with USB 2.0. They have a list of recommended brands (tend to work with iPods?) here, so I ran to a local store and picked up a SIIG brand card (this exact model), and it works great."
    So, because of a fault of Apple, YOU had to buy more stuff for your computer to make THEIR product work? Id see about trying to get Apple to foot the bill of that. I would have told the tech support gal, to tell her superiors to stick their Nano where it wont play again. Why is Apple not aknowledging this problem? Ive been loyal to Ipods since the old shuffle hit the shelves. It served me well until this year when it fell outta my pocket and sat through a weekend of ice and snow on our driveway. I have half a mind to return this bugged up mess and ebay me a new (well old) shuffle. This is rediculas! At least I got some songs on it once, its not completely useless...yet... I am NOT buying new USB ports for my computer when every single USB device I have works just darn fine in the ones I have on my computer now.

    when i leave my computer alone for a while and i'm signed into ichat, instead of it putting me to away like the settings are set to it just signs me off...how do i fix it? i want it to stay logged on until i sign out

    Hi,
    This is mostly about what is called Away as a Status and setting an Away Status Message when going Idle.
    Idle happens when there has been no Keyboard or Mouse  input for 10 mins.
    (read as for any Input device like Trackpad, Graphics pad, Trackball etc)
    The Bottom section of the General Section of the iChat Preferences is abouut what happens when you go Idle.  (The Orange Arrow and Text in the pic Below)
    (Your Status indicator will go Amber)
    Some of this does depend if you have Set "Block others for Seeing me as Idle " in the Accounts section > Account Info Tab on AIM Logins.
    It is also linked to Fast User Switching (your Mac User Account could go Idle whilst you are Logged in as another Mac User Account).
    The Blue Arrow and Text points out you can make sure iChat stays at the Last Status (And Message) you used on Quit (The default is for this to be Ticked and iChat to  change to Available).
    The Red Arrow and Text is about whether you appear as Fully Off line on Quit and Sleep.
    On Quit iChat does not fully log you out of the AIM Servers.
    You will appear as Off Line to your Buddies but the AIM servers will keep Off Line Messages for you (well, if you have never replied "NO" to the first Off Line IM you ever got)
    However it does seem that in certain Combos of these settings that you can "Seen" by your Buddies as Away rather than Off line.
    Picture of General Section of Preferences
    If you add in to this mix a shorter time than the Idle time to make the  computer go to Sleep then you can also create other "states"  as well.
    So...
    In it's default settings:-
    1) iChat will always set you to Available on Launch.
    2) At 10 mins of no input you will go Idle (Amber)
    3) For Fast User Switching you can set iChat to go Off Line or to Go "Away" (A Status Message setting).
    (It has been so long I forget what the Default was)
    4) iChat is set by default to show you going Idle (See the Accounts section of the Preferences)
    5) If you specifically set an Away Status (or Message) then iChat will do whatever is set in the bottom part of the General Section.
    6) Sleep will put you Off Line and the "When I Quit iChat, Set My Status to Off Line" option will kick in
    The Default is for this to be Unticked.
    There is no setting to create going to Away if left alone.
    I am not entirely sure on this one though as I think it can be created via "Second Pass" things.
    Note:-
    Example of Second Pass.
    Go to the View Menu and the Sort Buddies option.
    If you sort by First Name then the Buddy list is likely to Reorganise itself based on the Address Book Entries.
    If you now Sort by Availability it will organise those First Names by Availability rather than reverting to what was set before.
    (Screen Names Only Buddies will appear alphabetically in any list)
    Now repeat by Sort by Last Name then Availability and you will see that the list is not in the same order as First Names and Availability.
    At this point I am not sure exactly what you meant.
    The Title bit implies that Sleep was/is getting in the way.
    The actual question details leave me wondering what you think you have set iChat to do ?

  • I have a canon printer with a mac computer. For some reason whenever I print something the ink on the page is all green not black like it should be. I put in a new black ink cartrridge but that didn't change anything.Does anyone know why this is happening

    I have a canon printer with a mac computer. For some reason whenever I print something the ink on the page is all green not black like it should be. I put in a new black ink cartrridge but that didn't change anything.Does anyone know why this is happening?

    You posted in the OS 9 & below forum. What OS X version are you using? What model Canon printer? Canon printers have a test print capability (open the Printer Utility). What happens when you do a test print? Are all the printer cartridges in their proper location? Sometimes when you print "black", the printer uses a mixture of the colors to get "black". In the Printer Utility, check the levels of the other cartridges. There may be one color that is clogged.

  • Windows could not start the Cluster Service on Local computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 2.

    Dear Technet,
    Windows could not start the Cluster Service on Local computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 2.
    My cluster suddenly went disappear. and tried to restart the cluster service. When trying to restart service this above mention error comes up.
    even i tried to remove the cluster through power-shell still couldn't happen because of cluster service not running.
    Help me please.. thank you.
    Regards
    Shamil

    Hi,
    Could you confirm which account when you start the cluster service? The Cluster service is a service that requires a domain user account.
    The server cluster Setup program changes the local security policy for this account by granting a set of user rights to the account. Additionally, this account is made a member
    of the local Administrators group.
    If one or more of these user rights are missing, the Cluster service may stop immediately during startup or later, depending on when the Cluster service requires the particular
    user right.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why when I sync my Iphone to my Mac all my Calendar to do´s appear as though due for one hour later than they show inmy computer? Does anyone know how to fix it??

    Hi,
    can any one tell me why  when I sync my Iphone to my Mac all my Calendar to do´s appear as though due for one hour later than they show in my computer? Does anyone know how to fix it??

    Not simple enough. Please read the original concern.
    The issue is not "getting music to the new machine" or "authorizing the new machine" or "transferring purchases from an idevice". The issue is that after doing all those things, even creating a backup using the new iTunes/Mac, syncing my device with the new library erases all the app data from the iPhone, as well as folder structure and page layout. Music is expendable in this situation as it's just a matter of moving the files around. (Which I did before I ever started this exercise.)
    The problem is that everything from email accounts to folders are lost when I sync the device with a new computer. I tried this on my iPad first and spent a good deal of time re-arranging everything and getting all the data back. The pictures are just gone. Good thing I backed them up on the old PC.
    It won't be as simple on my iPhone as I have a ton of stuff on it and can't afford to lose anything. Some of the data is gave saves and such, but other things are more important. And I don't want to lose those game saves either.

  • Can anyone help me to find the page list for my site?

    I cannot seem to find the icon which will lead me to the page list for my site. I need it to retrieve a lost page

    Do you mean that you can't find the "Choose" button on the top left of Adobe Contribute? I gues I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "Page list".
    If you are talking about something else, please give us more details as well as let us know what version of Adobe Contribute you are referring to.

    If AMDS is running, you are using a USB port directly on the computer and not a hub, you have disconnected other USB devices except keyboard and mouse, you have completely uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes as described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925, You have tried cleaning the connector on the bottom of the phone, you have tried a different cable, you have installed the latest USB drivers for your computer, you have disabled your antivirus and firewall, you are running as an Administrator account and you have tried creating a new user on your computer and connected when logged in as that user then you have exhausted my knowledge. The only other thing to try is a different computer. If it isn't recognized on a different computer you have a hardware problem. Good luck!

  • How to get my apple computer to let me log into it remotely

    how do I get my apple computer to let me log into it remotely from another computer?

    First, you should be asking this question is the Mac OS X forum associated with the version of Mac OS X you are running (Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosemite).  If you tell use the version of Mac OS X you are using, we can ask the moderators to move this post to that forum.
    Back-to-My-Mac is what you would use if both Macs are yours using the same Apple iCloud account.
    <https://www.apple.com/support/icloud/back-to-my-mac/>
    <Set up and use Back to My Mac - Apple Support>
    If you are trying to connect to someone else's Mac (a family member, or friend), then you can use iChat (older versions of Mac OS X) or Messages to initiate Screen Sharing.
    <Messages (Mavericks): Share your screen>
    You could also use TeamViewer.com which is very good at connecting to a remote Mac (or Windows, as it is cross-platform) across the internet and navigating through home routers.
    <http://TeamViewer.com>
    The next level of complexity would involve opening ports in the destination home router.  This is non-trivial, and hopefully one of the above 3 methods will do the job.  PortForward.com has documents providing step-by-step guides on how to setup port forwarding for a huge list of routers
    <http://portforward.com/>
    Again, hopefully, you do not need this level of complexity.  But if you do please let us know.

  • Managing the Mobility preference at the computer list level

    Hi,
    I'd like to get a confirm about my understanding of the role of the Mobility preference in computer lists.
    Since the Mobility preference could be managed at the computer list level, it has effect both on the clients' local and network accounts. I tried to manage the preference for a computer list that contains clients with only local accounts and set it to "Synchronize account for offline use".
    I saw no effect on clients' local account, but I think this is expected because portable home directories requires a network home folder to be set, and obviously local accounts cannot have it set.
    Could anyone confirm?
    If the above reasoning is correct, the only point of managing the Mobility preference at the computer lists level is to allow or disallow network users with network home folders to create mobile accounts on specific computers.
    Am I right?
    TIA.

    I tried to
    manage the preference for a computer list that
    contains clients with only local accounts and set it

    That is the expecetd behavior.
    If the above reasoning is correct, the only point of

  • Automated updating of computer list

    I would like to use Automator or Applescript to scan all of the scanners I have set up in ARD and add any Macs found to the computer list.
    Has anyone done this? The automator actions for ARD don't seem to have a "refresh scanner" action.
    Thanks.

    My guess is that you'd have to have Applescript do it via the GUI, if possible.

  • Computer Listed in Bold in Setup of Xsan Admin

    I have an Xsan (v1.4.2) with four (4) computers. One of these computers is the original MDC, and is named Thirty-Six. Another computer is named Xsan-PMDC, and is now the primary MDC (via cvadmin's fail <Volume_Name>). Even though Xsan-PMDC is now the MDC, the computer that used to be the MDC (Thirty-Six) is listed in bold in Xsan Admin-->Creative (name of SAN component)--> Setup-->Computers. I have been told that the computer listed in bold is the controller I am connecting to.
    On the computer that is the active MDC at the moment, I have a window with this prompt.
    "You have connected to a Xsan client computer. 'Thirty-Six.local' sees 4 disks (LUNs) that appear to be managed by the controllers listed below. To administer the corresponding SAN, select a controller and click Reconnect." The lone computer I can select from the Existing controllers menu is the active metadata controller (not Thirty-Six.local). If I select the active metadata controller and click Reconnect, will bad things happen? Will the data on the Xsan volumes be lost? Will service be interrupted?
    My goal is for the active metadata controller to be the one that is listed in bold in Xsan Admin, but I don't want to lose the data on the Xsan volumes or create an otherwise bad situation. If anyone can offer me guidance on this, it would be appreciated.
    Thanks for reading!
    -Jonathan

    I am sure you have figured it out by now, but in case you haven't try connecting to the Xsan controller in charge to run Xsan admin directly, or else try different Xsan clients.
