Create Aggregate Device for audio - Admin User Required

In reference to the thread, http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1934270, I can confirm:
To create an aggregate audio device, you must be logged in as a user with admin rights. This was true on February 6, 2010 in Mac OSX Leopard 10.5.8.
Inconvenient, but understandable, because an aggregate device can re-route audio, possibly causing problems for other users who do not realize that's been done. Important for admin user to realize this.
Good to know that you need an admin userid.

You could ask about problems with the scheduled task here.

I have three Blue Yeti USB Microphones, and when I try to create an aggregate device in Audio MIDI on my MBP it lets me select two microphones but not the third. I need all three for a podcast, any solutions?

I have three Blue Yeti USB Microphones, and when I try to create an aggregate device in Audio MIDI on my MBP it lets me select two microphones but not the third. At first I thought maybe the third microphone was just defected or something but I tested the mic individually and it works fine. It'll let me use two Blue Yeti's and another microphone but not three Yeti's at once.

Ive had 2 identical USB AT2020 mics connected at the same time on both macbook pro and macbook Air.
The "Yeti" mics, are, lets say undesirable, and low to mid computer consumer mics.

Acrobat 7 requires admin password at every launch for non admin users?

acrobat 7 requires admin password at every launch for non admin users?
any one with a solution or similar problem?
thanks for any help.

I've been avidly following all of the threads regarding this issue...yet none of the solutions have worked for me. I've got 11 Mac users that do not use the Creative Suite..only Acrobat, Quark, etc. I've tried installing and re-installing through both Admin and User accounts, I've tried the AdobeBib XML change, I've tried enabling Root and installing, changing permission on the Acrobat folder, etc. all to no avail. I still get asked for Admin Authentication every time Acrobat and Distiller are opened (except on the Admin account side). This is happening on one particular Mac (G4, 1GB Ram, OS 10.4.3) for both Acrobat Standard 6 and 7 as well. The biggest issue that also happens in tandem with the Acrobat installs is the inability to print from Quark. I get the following error when printing: "The process "pictwpstops" terminated unexpectedly on signal 6." Because of the necessity to print Quark documents, I have uninstalled all Acrobat on the machines until we can get a fix. This resolves the printing problem with Quark. The only option left is to set up all users as Admin accounts - which I really do not want to do. Any other suggestions out there? I've got more information available if needed.

Can't create aggregate device in SL

Just installed SL and i'm having problems with Audio MIDI Setup, i need to create a new aggregate device to use my mixer etc but when i click the + symbol, the new device will flash in the list and immediately disappear. Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong? This worked fine for me with the same setup in Leopard.

SOLVED!!!!! I spend about 5 hours one the phone with Cameron at AppleCare as well as some time on my own, and we FINALLY figured it out!
The important thing is that you can ONLY add aggregate devices from an admin account, but that may not be the only problem. It certainly wasn't in my case. So, here are the steps to follow:
1. Try adding/removing aggregate devices from an ADMIN account. If this works, you're good. If it doesn't, or if you're already on an admin account, try creating a new admin account.
2. If even a new admin account doesn't work, REINSTALL SNOW LEOPARD. If you just use the default install, it does an Archive and Install. It only takes about an hour, and you won't even notice OS X has been reinstalled except for the fact you'll have to reinstall the 10.6.1 update and any other misc. updates. Besides, it'll run a lot faster. It's so easy in fact that I'm going to start recommending you reinstall like this every couple months or so just to keep your Mac running in top condition.
3. NOW try creating aggregate devices from one or more admin account. It should work now. If it doesn't, then you have a different problem and I can't really help you much.
Hope this helps someone!

Creating Aggregate device?

I'm having trouble with creating an Aggregate deivce on 10.6
Are there any tutorials for 10.6 (not leopard as it seems to have changed in 10.6?)
I basically want to record in Soundflower but output and monitor on my Edirol USB interface?
I have both of these selected in Audio MIDI setup and what i thought was "soundflower INPUT and Edirol OUTPUT but can't seem to get it to work
Any info or tutorials on creating Aggregate Devices in 10.6 or help would be great
Thanks

Problem solved: Must be done from an admin account.

Help with "Admin user requires valid username and password" on fms2_console.swf page

Just installed FMS2 on Debian (etch, 2.16.5-1 kernel). When I
connect to localhost:1111/fms2_console.swf and get the infamous XML
output which includes the text, "Admin user requires valid username
and password." The *.xml and *.ini files haven't been touched after
installation. All four daemons (fmsedge, fmsmaster, fmscore,
fmsadmin) are running and listening on the correct ports.
Any tips? (I'm sure this is easy to solve...)
Thanks.

Hi,
FMIS 4.5 does not accept plain text password. Encrypt=false is no longer supported. See here for more information : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/configadmin/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119f2926 bcf-7fed.html#WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119f2926bcf-7e91
The value for SERVER.ADMIN_PASSWORD needs to be the encrypted string for your password. That should solve your problem.
Hope this helps.

OS X 10.8 How do I add aggregate devices for multiple mics in GB and LP9

How do I create aggregate devices in Mountain Lion OS X 10.8? I'm using Garageband and Logic Pro 9 and want to record with multiple mics.

In Lion and Snow Leopard, aggregate audio devices are created in Audio Midi Setup.app. I'm not at my ML Mac right now, but I imagine it's the same. It's in the Utilities folder.
HTH.

Safari 5 seems to have slowed the OS for my Admin user account

After installing Safari 5 (now 5.0.2), and after a few Safari hangs and force quits, my OS for my Admin user account has become slow. Opening folders and seeing the contents is slow; moving small documents from folder to folder is very slow; cutting and pasting text in a MS Word document sometimes takes two or three tries, as the text highlighting cursor function has slowed. (Interestingly, Safari's basic click and pageload functions seem to work fairly normally, but with the same highlighting and copy/paste slowness that affects all other programs. Also, my mouse pointer moves quickly as per normal.)
However, I created a new user account as a test comparison and found that the new user account is NOT slow. It works perfectly fine.
Any thoughts on what I should do? Is my original Admin account corrupted? Is it possible to simply move my personal files (Word docs, iTunes songs, bookmarks) to the new user account and then delete my original Administrator account?
What should I do? Thanks everyone.

Well, it was worth a shot.
How full is your hard drive? Always a good starting point for diagnosing slowdowns.
Sometimes running periodic maintenance scripts helps, because it cleans some caches that a Safari reset won't. The scripts are supposed to run automatically in the wee hours of the morning when most people are computing, but the problem is that they only run if the computer is on and not sleeping. Not too realistic.
This article in an excellent series of "keep the Apple sweet" articles talks about the scripts and how to run them manually:
http://thexlab.com/faqs/maintscripts.html
They are less important in later incarnations of Mac OSX as some o the tasks they do were shifted to start-up, but doing them is worth trying.
Also use Activity Monitor to check for a runaway background process. It's possible that this could affect only one user account. If you've not used Activity Monitor before, make sure you change its "Show" option from the default of "My Processes" to "All Processes" or you might miss some nasty troublemakers. Also click in the "%CPU" column header to sort by processor usage. With no user apps running, (basically an idling computer) no single process should demand more than ~5 percent of the processor. Let AM display for a few minutes while you watch it, as some processes toggle back and forth as they activate.
Running any anti-virus software? Most does more Mac-harm than Mac-good.
Keep us posted!

User Interface Access Customisation for non admin users

Hi,
It is understood that for non-admin users, some features of the Planning Interface is not enabled and this can be controlled by proper access permissions. But, is it possible to extend the customization to provide some additional features in the menu bar for an user?
For example, if View User wants to manage task lists. Is it possible by some sort of customization? Please advise.
Thanks.

Hi,
You can create right click menus, and you can also create links on the tools page. Would any of these help you?
Here is the doc on those subjects:
Creating and Updating MenusAdministrators can create right-click menus and associate them with data forms, enabling users to click rows or columns in data forms and select menu items to:
Launch another application, URL, or business rule, with or without runtime prompts
Move to another data form
Move to Manage Approvals with a predefined scenario and version
The context of the right-click is relayed to the next action: the POV and the Page, the member the user clicked on, the members to the left (for rows), or above (for columns).
When designing data forms, use Other Options to select menus available for Data Form menu item types. As you update applications, update the appropriate menus. For example, if you delete a business rule referenced by a menu, remove it from the menu.
To create, edit, or delete menus:
Select Administration, then Manage, then Menus.
Perform one action:
To create a menu, click Create, enter the menu's name, and click OK.
To change a menu, select it and click Edit.
To delete menus, select them, click Delete, and click OK.>
Specifying Custom ToolsAdministrators can specify custom tools, or links, for users on the Tools page. Users having access to links can click links from the Tools menu to open pages in secondary browser windows.
To specify custom tools:
Select Administration, then Application, then Settings.
For Show, select Advanced Settings.
Click Go.
Select Custom Tools.
For each link:
For Name, enter the displayed link name.
For URL, enter a fully qualified URL, including the http:// prefix
For User Type, select which users can access the link.
Click Save.

How to allow access to winrs for non-admin user?

I have Windows Server 2012 (and Server 2008, but it is next priority) to monitor it using txwinrm. txwinrm library internally is using WinRS protocol. I have to monitor it using least privileged user, but don't know how to configure access for him.
All I managed to do - is to configure remote Powershell session for my user, but it's look like that winrs and powershell sessions have different security descriptors:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName 192.168.173.206 -Credential (credential Administrator $pwd) -ScriptBlock { 2 + 2}
# gives 4
Invoke-Command -ComputerName 192.168.173.206 -Credential (credential lpu1 $pwd) -ScriptBlock { 2 + 2}
# gives 4
winrs -r:192.168.173.206 -u:Administrator -p:$pwd 'powershell -command "2+2"'
# gives 4
winrs -r:192.168.173.206 -u:lpu1 -p:$pwd 'powershell -command "2+2"'
# Gives Winrs error: Access is denied.
Configuration for my user is following:
(Get-Item WSMan:\localhost\Service\RootSDDL).value
# O:NSG:BAD:P(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;S-1-5-21-3231263931-1371906242-1889625497-1141)S:P(AU;FA;GA;;;WD)(AU;SA;GWGX;;;WD)
(Get-PSSessionConfiguration -name Microsoft.Powershell).SecurityDescriptorSddl
# O:NSG:BAD:P(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;S-1-5-21-3231263931-1371906242-1889625497-1149)S:P(AU;FA;GA;;;WD)(AU;SA;GXGW;;;WD)
(In each security descriptor my user is given general access to protected object).
So what security descriptor should I set to make my winrs query work for non-admin user?

Hi Bunyk,
I can not recreate the erroe you posted, and please also post the screenshoot in your convenience.
I tested with a non-domain user but has the local admin permission of the remote computer, and this worked, before running the remote cmdlet in powershell, I also configured the TrustedHosts.
In addition, the access denied could be also caused to the Protocol Filtering on the remote server, for more detailed information, please refer to this thread:
winrs error:access is denied
I hope this helps.

How to create a jobsteps for a new user to run a report on portal

For ex: I have 5 new users which are created in R/3 and properly mapped with BW. But
report fails to runs for the new users.
ERROR: Jobs step fails for the User X
Is there any programe that automatically creates a jobsteps for the new users??
Please advice.
Thanks in advance,

Hello Kedar,

How the reports run for new users in your company??
Thanks,
