Deploy Image without the need of a running Windows installation

Current situation:
You have to have Windows installed on a destination client in order to be able to provision a new Base Layer
Feature request:
PXE boot a Windows PE system to estabilish a connection with the Mirage server but having the possibility to define the destination Harddisk or Partition.
This would make mass deployment of Retail Hardware much more easier...

Thanks Aaron!
I'm glad you answered and that you agree with me. This is certainly one of the things that would improve the product.
I have some more FEs to suggest... :-) Will post them shortly...
It really would be nice to see this great product to become even better in the next future!
All the best,
Don

I do not know if your file can be recovered. But I may be able help you to recreate it with ease. If you will settle for a composite where all image are re-sized for a particular tile size and virtually cropped to its aspect ratio. However all source image need be gathered into a folder to use my script process. Paste Image Roll Script and Picture Package Support Link http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/PasteImageRoll.jsx

How to install Hotfix without the need to administrative rights

Hello All,
I have Hotfix in .msu format and want to install on clients without the need to admin privileges and silently using SCCM.
For that i have made the batch file to make it silent install, and created the package with batch file, but it prompts the users to enter the credentials. How can i do that ?? Without intervene of administrator and silently.
Second, there is option while configuring to "RUN as User" or "RUN with Administrator".
How do you define this??? Specially Run with Administrator?? Which admin account it will use and where it is mentioned in configuration or package.
Thanks

Can Mac OS 10.2 support my G3 Wallstreet without the need of a hitch?

I have an old G3 Wallstreet, 250 MHz with full RAM. I want to upgrade its OS to Mac OSX. What is the highest Mac OSX support my G3 WS without the need of Xfacor, something like that? I installed Mac OS 10.2 a few times unsuccessfully. Its screen became gray and mosaic. I do not mind to have Mac OS 9.2.2. before installing Mac OSX.
I very much appreciate your advice.
Robert

Robert,
Neither a dead main battery or dead PRAM battery will affect the stability of your powerbook. The PRAM battery (internal rechargeable backup battery) has a different purpose than the PRAM battery on a desktop machine. This article describes how it performs:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24801?viewlocale=en_US
Many powerbook owners will continue to use their laptops with a dead PRAM battery either because they are unaware of its condition or they just don't want to spend the time and money to replace it. Unlike a desktop computer, a powerbook will run just fine without it. You only have a problem if the PRAM battery develops an internal short and then the powerbook will not start or exhibit any sign of activity or life.
I would run two tests on your Wallstreet to see if you have a problem with RAM or the HD; both tests are run in 9.x.
-Download 'Newer Gauge Pro 1.1' to check your RAM. After installing this utility, reboot to 9.x while pressing the shift key (release key when you see 'extensions off') to minimize the amount of RAM that is used by the OS. You might let it loop for an hour or so to make sure it gets a thorough test.
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/4512
-Next, boot to your 9.x CD > open the Utilities folder on the CD > launch Drive Setup > select Test Disk from the dropdown menu. This is a non-destructive test and will take time since it reads/writes to each sector. If it finds a problem, you will want to reinitialize the HD using the option to zero all data, then run Test Disk again. Repeat one more time (zeroing) if the first attempt fails. If it still fails, replace the HD. I can't recall if Test Disk tests each partition separately or will test the whole HD...you will discover the answer to this. If the HD needs zeroing, zero the whole HD, then recreate the necessary partitions. You can fing all the necessary info for Drive Setup in Drive Setup Help once it is launched.

HT201358 Can ARD3 work with the Active Directory setup on a Windows machine and without the need of Open Directory

We need the 'Golden Triangle' setup to work with ARD3 running on a Mac server with client Mac details retrieved from a Windows Active Directory. In this system, the ARD3 will be used to install packages from a Mac OS X server, where the client Mac list is gathered directly from a Windows Active Directory, which is already in place.
So, please guide me whether Apple Remote Desktop 3 is capable of getting client machine details from an Active Directory without the need of re-creating the client Mac list in the Mac server running ARD3.
If ARD3 can not be used in this case, do you recommend any other tools that can resolve our issue.
Thank you in advance.
Sudheesh.

ARD cannot directly obtain client information from Active Directory, no. It may be possible to create a script that would get such information and be able to put it into ARD, but I wouldn't begin to know how to write such a script. You may also be able to bind your OS X Server to ARD and create groups there. This article is obsolete for 10.6 or later but may provide some clues as to how to proceed:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24276
There are a number of third-party systems that can manage Macs that may be able to draw information from AD, such as Casper, LANDesk, and others. Which if any would meet your needs depends on many factors including how many devices you need to manage, whether you're looking for a cross-platform tool, your budget, etc. This is a difficult issue to address in a forum like this since there are so many variables to be considered.

How to trigger Bookmarks (Safari) syncing without the need to merge??

I found that my bookmarks were out of sync on my home Mac (although iCloud was active), after I did some sorting and cleaning on the office Mac. Since I found no other way (wait or reboot did not help), I did deactivate and then re-activate bookmarks syncing in Preferences => iCloud => Safari. This DID trigger syncing, BUT (after I was offered the option to cancel or to merge) the result was that now the sorting and cleaning work I did before was lost. In fact, it was worse because of the merge in two directions.
So the question is:
What can one do to force syncing in a way that avoids the merge?
It is really stupid that there is no option (like with MobileMe) to select the sync direction. Or did I miss that?

OK, you are correct, but this is only due to the phrasing of my last comment and not because of the quality of iCloud syncing. MobileMe was MUCH better in this respect! It DID offer the option to overwrite the data WITHOUT the need to manually delete before.
In addition, this was not the core point.
The main point is that iCloud for (at least to me) unknown reasons did stop performing its job for the bookmarks that were synced before.
I would like to know if there is an option to trigger syncing, without the need to delete manually, and then switch of and on again.
Again, the question is:
What can one do to force syncing in a way that avoids the merge?

I have an ipod touch 4g. I want to use our internet hdtv as a monitor so others can see my screen in 40". Sony guy said that can do it wirelessly through the internet router instead of Hdmi without the need for an apple tv.Is this true and how do I do it?

As I said above, I want to view my iPod screen on our new 40" Sony Internet full HD TV.
I know that you can do this via HDMI but a Sony guy said that you should be able to do this wirelessly by going through the router. Is this true and can I do this without the need for the Apple TV?
We are soon going to get the airport extreme, so will it work with that?

1. Is it a smart TV?
2. If so.... Is the TV connected to the Internet?
3. If it is.... Check if your iPod and your TV share the same IP address (Wi-Fi network)
4. If they do.... Then you should go to wherever your "Other Media" tab is.
5. After that.... Search for you iPod. Because it is connected to the same network, it should recognize the device they same way AirPrint does.
6. If you happen to see this fail, then try this method:
1. Do you have a Bluetooth-enabled computer/laptop?
2. If so.... Enable the bluetooth on the computer/laptop as well as your iPod.
3. After that.... Your iPod should be actively searching and it should find the computer/laptop.
4. If it did.... Transfer the file onto Windows/Mac (preferably Mac) and find the program to open the file.
5. After doing so.... Connect your computer/laptop to the TV via HDMI Output Cable.
6. Now it should work!

How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)

How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)
I want in attachment, not in the body mail.

I think your only solution is to zip the image files first and then attach them.
Read this from a site I found:
Sending Graphical Attachments -- When you attach a graphical image to your message, the recipient of your message sees the image inline (that is, in the body of the message) if her email client supports inline display. ("Take Control of Email with Apple Mail" contains a table listing the capabilities of popular Mac and PC email clients.) If a client does not support inline display (or the recipient has turned off the inline display option), the file appears as an attachment that must be opened in a separate program.
On the one hand, an inline image is easier for the recipient to see - all she has to do is look at it. On the other hand, inline images can be frustrating to scroll through. If you do not wish to send a graphical image inline, you must compress the file before attaching it - Mail, sadly, lacks a built-in compression option, though fortunately for Panther users, the Finder offers Zip compression without requiring a separate application.
Note that when you compose a new message, Mail always shows attachments in the body of your message. You can manually drag them somewhere else, but many email clients display all attachments in a separate list, regardless of where you place them in the message body.
If you paste an image into a message or drag & drop an image from another window (say, a Web browser), Mail converts the raw image data to an attachment in TIFF format. On the other hand, if you drag & drop the icon of an image file (or use the Attach button to locate the file using the file browser), Mail leaves the attached image in its original format. This difference is significant, because although most email clients can display JPEG images just fine, support for TIFF - especially in non-Mac email clients - is less common. If possible, I suggest attaching image files as opposed to pasting or dragging in raw image data.

My wife and I each have our own apple ID's which we use on our own iPhones and iPads. We share an iMac. Is there a way of enabling Facetime on the iMac to accept calls to either of our IDs without the need to login as that particular user?

My wife and I each have our own apple ID's which we use on our own iPhones and iPads. We share an iMac. Is there a way of enabling Facetime on the iMac to accept calls to either of our IDs without the need to login as that particular user?

no, when using facetime you log in with the apple id you want people to reach you at, so unless you both agree to share one apple id for all the facetime you do, it will be necessary for you to logout and login each time you use the application.

Question about email setting: how do i change the setting so i need to login to check my email. Currently it automatically come to the inbox without the need to log in.

You don't. Email comes in either by push or when you invoke the email app. Ther is no password except when you first set up the account. If your iPad is not being used as your personal device and you need to shield emails from other users, then don't use the email app. Instead, use web mail if available from your provider.

Change member names in batch without the need to reload data

Hi,I have several cubes on which the member names of one of the dimensions need to be changed. There are over 6000 members for that dimension. I used a rules file to change the member names and the previous data has to be reloaded (previous 13 months' data!). Is there a way to change the member names without the need to reload data?ThanksJane

I'm not sure if this would solve your problem, but if it doesn't cause a problem to leave the existing names in place, you could just build a new alias table. By assinging new aliases, you would not have to reload all your data.Regards,

Ask to buy without the need to share kids' Apple ID-password

I would like my kids the new "Ask to buy" feature, but it requires them to fill in their iCloud-password right after they hit the Download/Install-button.
I don't want to share their Apple-ID password because it also allows them to turn off stuff like Find my iPhone by mistake.
Sharing an important password like that with feels not right.
Any idea how to enable them to Ask a parent to buy an app via family sharing without the need for their Apple ID-password? Am I missing something? Or is it impossible?

It may help to enable the menu bar with Ctrl+B if it is currently hidden.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to delete files without the need to use the mouse? In OS X Mavericks.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to delete files without the need to use the mouse in OS X Mavericks?

my question is precise
Not exactly........
Cmd-Delete deletes a selected file without a mouse.
What you want, I think, is a way to select the file (presumably in Finder) without a mouse so that it can be deleted.
If you open a new Finder window - Cmd-N you can navigate with the up/down arrow keys as you navigate a file is selected , once selected it can be deleted with cmd-delete.
If while navigateing with the up/dpwn arrow keys you encounter a folder you can delete the folder with cmd-delete or open the folder with the right arrow and proceed to naviagte and delete.
