Disable auto check-in with SharePoint

Hi all,
I apologize if this isn't in the right place; I couldn't find an obvious location for Adobe / SharePoint integration questions.
Today one of my users complained that Adobe Reader X has suddenly started behaving differently in how it integrates with SharePoint (we're using 2007). When she receives an email with a PDF attached, she opens it in Reader and saves it to SharePoint. She then wants to review the document and possibly make comments, which again should be saved into SharePoint. At the end of the review she'll check the document in.
Today, when she did the initial save, Adobe automatically checked the document into SharePoint. She tried this several times with different documents, and had the same behavior.
Is this a new function? Is there a way to disable it so my user can save the document in SharePoint without checking it in?
Thanks,
Kristin

How to Disable Auto BT Connect with iPhone (iPod) to Ford Sync

One of the great combined features of my iPhone 3GS and my Ford's Sync system is that if I have Bluetooth enabled, I can step into my car, the iPhone and Sync connect, and it automatically starts streaming music over Bluetooth from the iPhone's iPod app via Sync to the vehicle's audio system. Uses a LOT of power, and if I don't select a playlist, it will just start playing anything and everything in my library in no particular order. Generally speaking, it is very cool and works flawlessly.
The problem is, on those days when I do NOT want to play music from the iPhone, or drain the iPhone's battery too quickly when I'm out on the road, it doesn't matter. It still tries to connect, I have to manually go into the iPod functionality of the iPhone, and pause the playback, evidently there's no way to just the iPod app/functionality off temporarily. Then I forget, leave the car, come back, and have to do the same thing. Sometimes, I completely forget about this, but the iPhone doesn't. Even if Sync is turned off, the iPhone will continue playing, streaming to nothing, and unnecessarily running the battery down.
I need to keep Bluetooth on so that I can make handsfree calls when traveling. Sync doesn’t seem to have a feature or function that would allow me to connect when I want to, versus this standard "automatic" connection. I’ve tried switching Sync sources, etc. , doesn’t matter, when the iPhone senses a Bluetooth connection, it just wants to play music via the iPod app. And there doesn’t seem to be any setting for iPod or Bluetooth on the iPhone that will fix this situation as well.
Anyone have any ideas here? Very much appreciated in advance, thanks.

I, too, hate this. Another thread said to switch audio source to line-in, but I haven't verified if it works.

SaaS Sharepoint, ADFS claims and internal AD-CA: How to disable CRL check in Sharepoint?

Hi all,
We have an external SaaS provider with a Sharepoint 2010 server. In our AD, there is an ADFS server providing ADFS claims to Sharepoint and thus giving SSO functionality. For the ADFS service and its token-signing and encrypting, there is one certificate
drawn from an internal AD Enterprise CA server.
The problem is that, when the company user opens the Sharepoint URL, it is extreamly slow to open, however it does eventualy open. The SaaS provider has indicated its an issue with the CRL checking. I know on other Microsoft products there are ways to disable
CRL checking but haven't found such information for sharepoint.
We have provided the CRL files and the provider has added these and for as long as they are valid things work as expected. However the CRL then expires and we are back to square one.
Can anyone help?
I have found this question has been asked before here:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/431bae5c-c502-4723-9de7-663abd46658e/saas-sharepoint-adfs-claims-and-internal-adca-how-to-disable-crl-check-in-sharepoint?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
Unfortunately the answer doesn't satisfy my situation. Also not sure I agree that self signed certificates should be used and it's quite a topic for debate in ADFS circles... However in my situation we don't have the option to change ADFS to use self signed
certificates as the ADFS service is in use with 12+ other service providers all who have no issue using the Token Signing Certificate even though they cant access the CRL either.
Thanks for your help,
James

Hi,
As I understand, you want to disable CRL check in SharePoint.
There are four workarounds:
1. Give your servers an outbound Internet connection
2. Edit the hosts file at “%SYSTEMROOT%\\System32\\drivers\\etc\\hosts” to fool the CRL check into thinking your local machine is crl.microsoft.com by pointing it at 127.0.0.1 (localhost).
3. Edit the registry to disable CRL checking by setting the State DWORD to 146944 decimal (SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\WinTrust\\Trust Providers\\Software Publishing for both HKEY_USERS\\.DEFAULT and HKEY_CURRENT_USER) PowerShell.
4. Edit the machine.configs and disable it there.
The article gives you the details about the four workaround.

Collaborate on Excel workbooks with Sharepoint Foundation

My company recently implemented SharePoint Foundation 2013 and our shared Excel workbooks are no longer allowing multiple users to collaborate at the same time. We have verified that all the settings and permissions are correct and that checking in and
checking out is not required. Is this something that is not available with SharePoint Foundation? We are using Office 2013 installed on the clients, not Office online. Thank you.

Co-authoring of Excel workbooks is only supported when all the editors are using the Excel web application, not the Excel client application.
From
Microsoft's overview of co-authoring in SharePoint 2013:
>"Co-authoring is easy to use from the end user’s point of view. When a user wants to work on a document in Word 2013, PowerPoint 2013, OneNote 2013, Visio 2013 or one of the Office Web Apps, he or she merely opens it from SharePoint 2013 or SharePoint
Online, as usual. If another user already has the document open, both users can edit the document at the same time.
One exception to this is that users can co-author in Excel Web App only if everyone uses the Excel Web App to access the workbook. If anyone uses Excel 2013 or Excel 2010 (the client application)
to access the workbook, co-authoring in Excel Web App will be disabled for that workbook while it is open in the client application."
>"The Excel 2013 client application does not support co-authoring workbooks in SharePoint 2013 or SharePoint Online. But, the Excel client application uses the Shared Workbook feature to support non-real-time co-authoring workbooks that are stored
locally or on network (UNC) paths."

How can I disable auto-switching desktops?

I've long appreciated the spaces/mission control feature of OS X. However, it seems more oriented to organizing desktops by application rather than by project.
Like many users, I suspect, I use different desktops for different projects, each of which requires a variety of applications (finder, word docs, spreadsheets, etc). When I'm working on project 1 in desktop 1, I never want to be whisked away to desktop 2. In fact, I never want to be switched to a different desktop automatically. If I click on an application, I want it to open a new window for that application. If a new iteration of an app can't be opened (ie, Mail), I'd like it to pull Mail to me rather than send me off to it. Aren't apps supposed to come when we call, not the other way around?
I have unchecked "...switch to a space with open windows of that application" in System Prefences, but my desktop continues to auto-switch, especially with Finder.
In short: is there a way disable auto-switching entirely? I'd like to be able to assign windows and navigate manually without being constantly pulled away from the project I'm working on.
Thanks for the help; I really appreciate people spending their time helping others on forums like this one.

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Hi Jin Chen,
Thank you for your response. I have disabled all the Symantec End Point Protection Service, but problem persists..

Acrobat Reader integration with SharePoint 2007

Hi,
We have been having some major issues with people opening PDF files from document libraries in MOSS 2007.
Firstly in v9.x we find that only one user can access a PDF file at a time because it automatically opens the file as editable. This isn't a problem, however when another user tries to open it instead of being asked to open a read only\local copy, they just get an access violation error. We have found that sometimes even though a user has closed the file, the access violation errors continue and the only way round it is to copy the file locally, delete the original and then copy it back up to the document library.
I see that version X has been written to include much better integration with SharePoint. However our company policy is that we do not use check in\check out, so i'd like to disable this prompt. I've found this article which seems to have instructions on how to do it, however the registry change does not seem to have made any difference. I notice that on that article is says "DO NOT PUBLISH THE DOCUMENT EXTERNALLY UNTIL 10.1 SHIP". I'm unsure whether this is a typo and it's meant to be 10.01 which has recently been released or whether this article should not yet be available.
Has anyone managed to get the registry change working?
Cheers
James

Hi,

Disabling auto-update doesn't work

I need to stop at Firefox 14 for now, and need to prevent auto-updates.
In Firefox 14.0.1 when I disable auto-update by setting 'never check for updates', and/or use about:config to clear 'app.update.url', both settings are ignored. When I close and re-open Firefox, auto-update is again enabled, and the update URL is again set.
Recommendations?

As it turns out, it's not a matter of 'preferences not being saved'.
It's Firefox spontaneously changing my preferences at start-time.
I've been testing; here's what i discover.
1. I install FF14, start it the first time, and disable auto-update (via Tools/Options/Advanced)
At this point - prefs.js in my profile now starts with
user_pref("app.update.auto", false);
user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
2. now I exit FF.
prefs.js in my profile STILL starts with
user_pref("app.update.auto", false);
user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
3. i restart FF (#1)
prefs.js in my profile STILL starts with
user_pref("app.update.auto", false);
user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
4. i close FF
prefs.js in my profile STILL starts with
user_pref("app.update.auto", false);
user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
5. I restart FF (#2)
NOW prefs.js has dropped those 2 initial lines, and starts with user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.addon-........etc
Firefox is spontaneously changing my prefs.js.
Before this series of tests I adjusted the prefs.js in all other profiles in this XPSP3 machine to start with
user_pref("app.update.auto", false);
user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
This is obnoxious.
I expect better from Mozilla.
Suggestions?

Integrating Tableau server report with SharePoint

Hi
The requirement is to have Tebleau server report to be integrated with SharePoint. We can integrate the report using a page viewer web part but in the web part it asks for log in credentials, also Tableau server is installed on a different server with local
authentication mechanism. What I want is the report be available to all the domain users on SharePoint available on a different server. I see an option - to use Secure store service but then it requires the authentication mechanism to be changed in Tableau
server by uninstalling it first and then install it again (which we consider is not feasible) so that using the secure store credentials the report automatically logs in and shows the report to all the authenticated SharePoint users.
How can we implement the auto log in feature for Tableau report in the page viewer web part so that the report is available already (Secure Store) and the SharePoint logged in user does not have to go and log in.
Any pointers or suggestions to accomplish this using any other method also would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Can I disable auto-sync on Shuffel iTunes 7.3 Vista OS

It seems odd that everytime I make a change to a single song on my iPod, iTunes performs a sync.
For example, I want to uncheck several songs loaded on my shuffel, but iTunes performs a sync after each time I de-select a check-box.
Can I disable automatic syncing after each change to a song or podcast on my shuffel?
Thanks

Creating auto-increment field in SharePoint List

In SharePoint, we can create the auto-incremental field by many ways, I am going to discuss two ways of doing it.
Calculated field
Item Event Receiver
1. Using Calculated field:
Using this we can accomplish it without doing any programing and it is a relatively simple way of doing it. By using “Calculated” column in SharePoint List we can create auto-increment field. We can accomplish this by creating a new column and choosing the
column type as “Calculated (calculation based on other columns)”. And in Formula field, we have to enter [ID]
In fact this will be using the values from “ID” field from SharePoint list that starts from 1.
For example, if we want to start our auto-increment column from 100, we can modify the “Formula” field of Create New column screen, we can have to enter [ID] + 99
For detailed info please follow the blog I wrote here: http://faisalrafique.wordpress.com/2011/03/19/creating-auto-increment-field-in-sharepoint-list/
2. Using Item Event Receiver:
By using this strategy, users have advantage to edit the existing values, we can also avoid it by making field read-only on feature activation. Using item event receiver, on ItemAdded event, we have to find the highest value among previously added items
and then save the incremented value to current newly created auto-incremental column.
For code of event reciever please follow the blog I wrote here:
http://faisalrafique.wordpress.com/2011/03/19/creating-auto-increment-field-in-sharepoint-list/
Happy Coding

Use Sharepoint Designer to create a Workflow for the list containing the field to increment. For my project I had an Invoice field that I wanted to start with 1001 and increment from there so I made the following workflow to do this.
In the new workflow screen in Sharepoint Designer create two actions in Step 1:
Calculate Current Item:ID plus 1000 (Output to Variable: calc)
then Set AutoIncrementNumber to Variable: calc
This is just a guide. If you just want the auto-increment to start with 1 then you can just use this step
Set AutoIncrementNumber to Current Item:ID
Also, make sure you select the correct name for your field in the Workflow action instead of AutoIncrementNumber.
Save the Workflow, close it, and then open it again in Sharepoint Designer. Check the box for "Start workflow automatically when an item is created." Save it again and then click on the Publish button to make it active on the sharepoint site. The value should
now increment for each new item created in the list.

Disable Auto Orientation only in a specific frame!

Hi there!
I appreciate if you please guide me with your experience in Mobile App design.
My App contains 5 frames of data (movieclips), that each frame has 2 designs:
1- Stand mode design    (portrait)
2- Wide mode design     (landscape)
So far it works great and I have published my App both on Google Play and Apple Store.
Frames structure is as follows:
frame   1            Loads External Data
frames 2-6         Each frame contains 1 MovieClip designed based on mobile "Stand mode"
frames 22-26     Each frame contains 1 MovieClip designed based on mobile "Wide mode"
(Example: contents of frame 2 and 22 are the same, also 3 & 23 ... 6 & 26)
(frame 2 is STAND design, 22 is WIDE design, and so on)
In "Air Setting Dialoge", I have selected aspect ratio "Auto" and "Auto orientation".
And I have this code in Frame 1 to do the rotation trick:
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeLayout);
function resizeLayout(e:Event):void
               setPosition();
function setPosition():void
        //Phone turned from "Wide" to "Stand"
               if (stage.stageWidth < stage.stageHeight)
                              //App is now in "Wide" mode - means between frame 22 to 26
                              if (currentFrame>20)
                                             //go to the same position of App but in "Stand" mode
                                             gotoAndStop(currentFrame - 20);
               else
                              //Phone turned from "Stand" to "Wide"
                              if (currentFrame<20)
                    //go to the same position of App but in "Wide" mode
                     gotoAndStop(currentFrame + 20);
Well, and finally my question:
1- Is this way I have programed my App to rotate, a proper approach?!
      (in this way I can easily arrange objects on screen and also position them based on math calculations)
2- If I want to disable auto rotation only when app reaches specific frames, what should I do??
   (for example I want the app Not to auto oriente in Frame 6 and 26., but it rotates in other frames)
Hope it was not confusing and I cant wait to check out your valuable guidance!
All the best and thanks a lot for your time.

Hi there all!!
Still I have no answer for my question No1, BUT I could find my answer to the 2nd question and here it is for your kind notice:
Special thanks to Daniel Dura
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/screen_orientation_apis.html
I just added this code to my first Frame:
stage.addEventListener(StageOrientationEvent.ORIENTATION_CHANGING, onOrientationChanging);
function onOrientationChanging(event:StageOrientationEvent ):void
          if (currentFrame == 6 || currentFrame == 26)
                    event.preventDefault();

Cannot disable Auto Tone on import of PSD files - ruins edits !!

Hi - I am a LR 5 expert and we have an issue with the latest release that I need to overcome or it is unusable.    Please direct this to an expert level support person as I have already networked around and have not been able to resolve this issue.    The issue is consistent with other users as well - we have tried this on several computers and the result is the same.     It is possible that is pilot error but I doubt it - we have disabled apply auto tone everywhere we could find it...
I believe this is a serious bug in the way LR handles files on import - and I am also hoping there is an immediate work-around as the issue has TRIPLED our workflow time.
Example #1   -   Edit DNG - Export as PSD with "add to catalog" checked - LR exports the file and then imports the PSD,   but in doing so applies auto tone and destroys all the edits. The re-imported images are too bright and too contrasty.       Auto tone on import IS disabled.
We tried to work around the issue by trying to edit outside LR and re-importing but that does not work either -SAME RESULT !
Example #2 -   Edit DNG files, export to PSD, do not check "add to catalog" - make the edits needed in Photoshop, then import using "add" and LR applies Auto Tone once again destroying all edits.      You can actually watch the auto tone being applied to the thumbs as it imports them. - they get brighter.
In all cases the edited images end up too bright and too contrasty and are otherwise unusable.        Our workaround is to export to PSD, edit in photoshop, then use Photoshop's   scripts to produce the final images and leave the PSD files out of the catalog - this has added a TON of time to our workflow and has corrupted our file management - UNACCEPTABLE !!
We have also tried reading the external meta data option - same result - bright files.
Please let us know how we completely disable auto tone on import and fix this issue it is a deal breaker for using this version.   We are using LR 5.6
Thanks, Mark
Head Janitor, 6IXGUN.COM

Looks like we solved our own problem -   either edit or delete the preferences files and restart lightroom. If you delete it, it will of course wipe our your template settings, etc but that was far less of a hassle than not being able to use LR with PSD / exporting. We were able to make a simple edit and it was fixed.   Also make sure you have unchecked "apply auto tone" in the >preferences>presets   dialog box - we did not have it checked but it WAS enabled in the plist file.       I would definitely consider this a bug - the issue was not present in the last version of LR, it was introduced upon installing 5.6.
