Directive Bundle - Shutdown workstation no longer works

Our network has been using a directive bundle to shutdown our pc's for over a year now and it had worked quite well up until a couple of weeks ago.
At that point I added an additional requirement to keep it from shutting down a pc on our network, since then the pc's are no longer turning off as they had.
The action is set to shutdown the pc's after 900 seconds(15 minutes) and gives the user the option to cancel. The bundle is associated to 4 different workstation groups. The schedule for each association is set to "recurring" and has both the Distribution Schedule and the Launch Schedule set for 6:45pm M,T,W,T,F.
I originally tried to edit the bundle back to its original state by removing the requirement I had added, they still didn't shut down.
Then I rebooted the ZEN server(10.1.1) in case a service or something had been stopped or affected.
The bundle appears on all the clients under the "assigned bundles" in the agent and shows it is available and effective.
Yet the pc's still do not power off... any ideas?

Shutdown directive bundle doesn't allow windows updates

I have a directive bundle to shutdown a machine. The bundle works fine in terms of shutting down the machine at the appointed time, however, what it does not seem to do, at least on Windows 7, is to apply any updates.
If you have pending updates to apply, choosing, Start/Shutdown will shutdown the computer and apply updates. This doesn't work with the ZCM 10 directive bundle to shutdown.
Any ideas why?

Since bundle 2921 some of my buttons no longer work

I updated phone to version 6 bundle 2921 over the weekend and now the following buttons no longer work, 'S,G,H,L,W' and my scroll button no longer works either. These speed dials no longer work (speed dials to other letters are fine.)
I have not dropped it, got it wet or let the battery run out. I figure it is a software issue as I didn't have any of these issues before the update. Also, when I do a battery pull, the buttons work for a short time (1 minute) and then no longer work.
Is there an update to the update or can I roll back to my previous version?
thanks

Hello,
The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
2) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?lid=us:bboftwareesktopSoftware&lpos=us:bboftware
3) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
4) If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML (there will be at least one, perhaps 2)
5) Launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC. If, during the process, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
Don't forget to backup.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
KB19915How to perform a clean reload of BlackBerry smartphone application software using BlackBerry Desktop Software

PHP scripts with a $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] directive inside, no longer work in v16.

I made a PHP script some time ago, before v16 came out and now that I have upgraded (good thing I did), notice that the $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] directive no longer works. What my script does is, see if a user came in from a website (Facebook for example) and redirects them to the appropriate page. This is no longer the fact and I am not happy at all with this. How do I know FF 16 is at fault? Because, my script still works in IE7 and other web browsers. What have you done?????

Mythtv, auto shutdown no longer working, scheduler.cpp ?

Following a recent update the automatic shutdown of my backend is no longer working (well, at least not reliably).
I have 3 scripts set up in the relevant sections of the mythtv-setup to check if myth is ok to shut down, set the new wakeup time and perform the actual shutdown. These scripts still work alright, but the backend is not initiating the shutdown any more in some cases.
Lots of trial and error makes me think that this is somehow related to scheduler.cpp, but I am not sure if this is the case or how to fix it.
I think I have established a pattern:
Scenario 1:
- Boot backend
- do nothing else (e.g. start remote frontend or mythfrontend on the backend)
- automatic shutdown does not work
Scenario 2:
- Boot backend
- start remote frontend
- shut down frontend
- automatic shutdown does not work
- restart backend service (without reboot)
- automatic shutdown works
I also notice that in scenario 2 (when automatic shutdown works) there are a whole heap of these kind of messages right until shutdown occurs:
2013-04-29 19:18:07.592125 N [660/738] Expire autoexpire.cpp:641 (SendDeleteMessages) - Expiring 156 MB for 1073 at 2013-04-13T11:50:20Z => Hulk

In scenario 2 (successful) I see the following in the log just before the above auto expire stuff:
Scheduler scheduler.cpp:2307 (HandleRunSchedulerStartup) - Scheduler: Seem to be woken up by USER
then a whole heap of auto expiry stuff and finally:
Scheduler scheduler.cpp:2862 (CheckShutdownServer) - CheckShutdownServer returned - OK to shutdown
2013-04-29 19:19:55.276775 N [660/735] Scheduler scheduler.cpp:2947 (ShutdownServer) - Running the command to set the next scheduled wakeup time :-

sudo /home/laffi/scripts/MythShutdown
In scenario 1 (unsuccessfull shutdown) I also get
Scheduler scheduler.cpp:2307 (HandleRunSchedulerStartup) - Scheduler: Seem to be woken up by USER
and then autoexpiry, but then, once a frontend connects:
ProcessRequest mainserver.cpp:1385 (HandleAnnounce) - adding: frontend as a client (events: 0)
I don't get autoexpiry of files and no shutdown, both of which I believe are initiated by scheduler.cpp
I also noticed the following in the logs when auto shutdown does not work:
2013-04-29 15:40:36.046359 I [648/848] ProcessRequest mainserver.cpp:1385 (HandleAnnounce) - adding: mythbackend as a client (events: 1)
which does not seem to appear in the logs when auto shutdown works.
Any ideas ? I have found very little (next to none) regarding scheduler.cpp when searching.

The other side of the VPN is a TMG server hosted at our main office. I can connect to it off site, and others were connected to it remotely as well, but for some reason users at that remote site can no longer connect to the VPN.
I talked to my ISP wondering if there was something that was blocked due to the change from dhcp to static IP addresses, but they don't see anything.

I used to send photos from my Lumix Tz-40 camera directly to my iPad using the cameras WIFI. Since I installed IOS7 the connection no longer works. Anyone got any ideas. I have already installed the latest version of Panasonic's Image App (1.7.1)

I used to send photos from my Lumix Tz-40 camera directly to my iPad using the camera's WIFI. It was all working well until I installed IOS7. The connection no longer works. The camera still keeps the iPad in its connection history. The camera's wifi network still appears when I select a WiFi network from the iPad but the Wifi status icon never appears on the iPad. So the connection is never made.
Anyone got any ideas. I have already installed the latest version of Panasonic's Image App (1.7.1)

Hi there,
You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
Nathan

The synchronisation of iphone 4S to windows 7/64 bit does no longer work; kalender, individual ringtones and contacts get not sychronized in both directions. I tried reset on working configuration, deinstallation of itunes - nothing worked

The synchronisation of iphone 4S to windows 7/64 bit does no longer work; kalender, individual ringtones and contacts get not sychronized in both directions. I tried reset on working configuration, deinstallation of itunes - nothing worked - what can be done to solve?

Couple of things to check:
You are using Outlook 2003, 2007 or 2010
You have selected to sync Calendars and Contacts with Outlook on the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings
You have selected your Outlook calendar as the default claendar on your iPhone (in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar)
If all that is correct and iTunes still won't sync correctly, you might have to try reinstalling Outlook. Another option is to enable iCloud syncing with Outlook (see http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/). This requires Outlook 2007 or 2010. If you decide to sync using iCloud but sure to disable contacts and calendar syncing in iTunes on the Info tab of your sync settings. Do not try to sync with both Outlook and iCloud or you will end up with duplicates in your contacts and calendar.
For syncing Ringtones confirm that:
The file is really a ringtone (right-click the file in iTunes, select Get Info, on the Summary tab it should say "Kind: Ringtone".
You have checked each of the ringtones you want to sync
You have checked "Sync only checked songs and videos" on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings
You have checked Sync Tones on the Tones tab of your iTunes sync settings

Shortcut to SHUTDOWN no longer works

I used to shut down my computer by punching COMMAND + EJECT, but ever since I updated to OS 10.4.9 yesterday, that feature no longer works. Any thoughts ???

The ctrl-eject key combination will likely still work if you hold down the Eject key a little longer than before - the 10.4.9 update added a delay to the eject key that affects all key combos involving that key.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305268
Your profile lists a wireless keyboard - out of curiosity, does this hint to bypass the delay work for you?

My 4th generation ipod nano backlight no longer working. Any suggestions

My 4th or 5th generation ipod nano backlight is no longer working. Any suggestions?

Hi grecokev,
Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
You mention that your iPod nano is no longer recognized by iTunes after an update. Reinstalling iTunes is a good troubleshooting step, and if the device still doesn't appear in iTunes, try the following steps next:
Turn off your computer and your iOS device or iPod, then turn them on again.
Check to make sure that you've installed all required updates for your computer.
Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might work only to charge those products and might not transmit data. Also, if you're using a third-party case or extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
You can find these steps in this troubleshooting article:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
If the steps above don't solve it, see the section of the article called "Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed" for some additional steps to try on your PC.

PPTP no longer working through Cisco 2901

Up until yesterday, the PPTP VPN to our main office was working as ordered.
Yesterday our ISP statically assigned our IP address to us, and it went from ip address dhcp to ip address x.x.x.x
Everything else works fine, internet and whatnot, but the VPN connection will no longer work. It just times out. I'm wondering if it's something in my config that is blocking it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
As you can see, this isn't in anyshape or form an advanced configuration. So I don't see what the problem could be.

Since upgrading to Tiger Stuffit no longer works.

Since upgrading to Tiger, Stuffit no longer works. I cannot send an email with file compression selected, because it gives me an error message: The action could not be completed, an unknown internal program error has occurred.
I had been using version 9, but on the advice of Allume tech support, I uninstalled it, downloaded and installed Stuffit Deluxe 10.0.1. Twice. There are no error messages, as the program simply does not open. It is available in the dock, when I double click it, it will bounce once or twice and appear to be opening, and then stop bouncing. If I drag a file onto the icon, it bounces twice and then stops, no compressed file is created. If I go directly to the application folder and open the application, it looks like it will open, it places an icon in the doc for a split second, and then it goes away. Stuffit Expander, however, works fine.
Allume has stopped answering my inquiries because they can't figure out what's going on. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Prior to ugrading to Tiger did you repair your hard drive and permissions? Did you do a true Upgrade install or an Archive and Install? If you did an Upgrade install what version of OS X did you upgrade? If you did an Archive and Install, then try reinstalling Stuffit.
To repair the hard drive and permissions do the following:
Boot from your OS X Installer. Be sure to use the installer for the version of OS X you have installed. After the installer loads select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (or Utilities menu if using Tiger.) After DU loads select your OS X volume from the list on the left, click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (3.0.3 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.1.1 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Brand new IPOD Touch Apps no longer work after upgrading software

I got a Ipod touch for my wife Today at Wal-Mart. I brought it home, connected to wifi and downloaded some apps and also payed for some. They all worked fine. Then I connected to computer to transfer songs. It told me to upgrade the Ipod software so i Did. After it restarted none of the downloaded apps work anymore. I have read MANY MANY MANY discussions on this and there is no fix. I am not wiping out all the songs and reload everything all over again. It will take forever. My wifes BD is Friday and this is making me so mad after I just dropped $300 on this thing. APPLE!!! Where is the fix? I deleted the apps and reinstalled they still don't work. Anybody got this figured out? I am getting ready to get my money back and tell everyone to avoid buying ipod until they get this upgrade bug fixed.
Message was edited by: 2009 IPOD TOUCH

I have the same problem. Brand new two days ago. I synched the touch with Itunes but wasn't hooked up to the internet at the time so didn't do the software upgrade right away. Then I downloaded about a dozen apps (free and paid) with wifi directly to the touch. They all worked fine. Then I plugged it back in to Itunes and had it upgrade it to 3.1.2. It locked up Itunes several times since then and the downloaded apps no longer work (they start to open then disappear).
The problem is, no one is listening to this problem (including Anna above)! Everyone says "just do a hard reboot, or restore to factory settings, reload the apps, etc." I've tried all the standard troubleshooting but none of it fixes this. It sure seems to me this is a problem with 3.1.2 but Apple isn't helping out here. Where are you APPLE? Use some of those outrageous profits you're making to fix the problem you have created. Here's $300 of my hard earned dollars pretty much down the drain.

Link to A folder View in a PDF Portfolio - feature no longer working - please advise

Hi, I am no longer able to link to a Folder View of a PDF Portfolio:
Within a PDF portfolio i need to link from a PDF to a folder view in the Portfolio. I am using Link Action - Go to Page View.
This used to work for me - very important feature that no longer works. Please advise a workaround.
Steps:
1. Start a PDF Portfolio that contains files and folders
2. Open a PDF in the Portfolio
3. in the opened PDF click Add or Edit Link
4. Define a link area and set it to Go To A Page Vies
5. In the past i have been able to target a Folder View in the Portfolio - ie. direct a user not to a file, but instead to a folder view that contains relevant files. I would do this by setting the Target Page View to my desired folder view
6. This used to work in bringing a user to the folder view i specify. Now it does nothing. If i go back to the PDF and EDIT the Link i see this. File: Parent Document Page 1. This in fact does nothing.
Please advise, am i doing this wrong, it used to work. I have tried several workarounds, with no luck.
thanks!

There's an extension or two, or a combination of extensions which seem to be causing that in Firefox 6.0.2. One that has been mentioned is TabMix Plus.

You need to figure out what is causing it, and disable that extension/s until they are fixed by their developer.
