Download different preset system sound profiles?

I just purchased my new laptop 2 days ago which came with the new Windows 8.1. I have spent several hours scouring the internet for sites that have sound profiles that have already been set to each event, so I don't have to spend the next 11 million years
setting each one manually.
I am quite displeased with the lack of personalization features especially after how much I paid, which a lot of the cost was for this new-fangled OS. There is only one set of system sounds, and it is extremely quiet compared to the rest of the sounds such
as any playing music, Skype message/call alerts, etc. Even at full volume, I cannot hear the system sounds and that is annoying to me. I want to hear when I click on anything or open a link, the familiar crisp and loud "tick" sound from Windows
7, but it is missing.
I only want the sound profiles, I don't need a bunch of picture sets or other graphically related things, just the preset sound files that are ready to go as soon as you download them. This shouldn't have been an issue with new aged technology like
this. I personally think the interface customization options should be much greater, but there is only 12 or 14 factory wallpapers installed, and there is no diversity in the selections. I know its no big deal to download a high resolution wallpaper
from anywhere online, but after paying several hundred dollars for Windows 7 with a new skin on it, one would expect to at least be able to find one or two customization settings that suits their desires, but due to lack of any choices, I have not been able
to become comfortable with my new system.
If anybody has any information on where I might be able to find some sounds, that would be great. Look forward to getting this figured out.
Thanks,
Steele

Did you download these songs from ITMS? or some other source?
Check the bit rate on the songs via itunes and see what it says. It will give you some information as to why the songs sound the way they do.

Can you download different indesign animation presets CS6?

can you download different indesign animation presets CS6? to add or replace the originals?

I believe you can import them from Flash Professional CS6. I've never done it, however. From the Animation panel menu, there's a Manage Preset command. You're supposed to be able to load motion presets from Flash.

We have 150 iPads at our school. What effective ways have you found to update and download new apps to such a large number of iPads? Can I download different apps to different sub sets of our large group - or must they all have the same apps?

At our elementary school, our 150 iPads are separated into 5 subsets. Can I download different apps to each subset, or must they all have the same apps since they all share the same Apple ID. Some iPads are for grades k-2, and some are for 3-5. I'd like to have the best apps for the different grade levels on the iPads. Currently we have "iPad Carts" to house our iPads in, and could use them to upload and update apps all at once, but don't utilize this function as we have a custom set up for the iPads that is erased each time we update through the carts.

You can configure different set of apps for different groups of ipads.
You need an mdm to do this.

T400 XP SP3 - Audio System Sounds are flat (as in musical pitch is flat) and go silent

Ok, this is a strange one. I just got my wife a brand new 14" T400, arrived Dec 8, 2008. It's a great laptop. The first thing I did was download latest Thinkpad drivers with the update utility, and update to latest windows patches (SP3 + everything else).
My wife and I are both musicians, so this is something we noticed right away.
The audio plays fine with MP3 files, videos, etc ... but whenever a system sound plays, like a "Default Beep" or "Asterisk", the sound is wrong -- if the default sound is in the key of C, it's playing in B flat.
I can play audio from my older Thinkpad T60, and it sounds fine. I play it from the new T400, and it sounds like it's tired, just a little flat and dying.
The chip in the T400 is the Conexant High Definition SmartAudio 221. The driver shows driver date: 7/9/2008, Version: 3.54.0.51.
Anyone else having this odd problem?
Problem 2: just manifested itself today - after coming out of standby, there was no audio for about 3 minutes. Then suddenly, as we tried playing different audio sources, youtube videos, my wife deleted an email in Outlook, and there was the little "are you sure sound" working again (flat of course).
I wonder if perhaps this problem is only an XP driver issue, and works fine in Vista with latest drivers?
Message Edited by strongster on 12-13-2008 10:35 AM

Hi All,
Has anyone else experienced this with a T400? The Windows sounds are about a tone lower in pitch than they should be. I am a musician and find it rather off-putting! Also if I record sound with Sound Recorder and play it back, the recording is about a tone lower than the original.
I've seen another T400 with the issue - anybody solved this one? I've updated the drivers ;-)
Thanks,
Andrew

ALV Report Displaying QUAN field different in systems

Hi Guys,
I have a field of type QUAN (quantity) on an ALV report that is displaying differently on the Devlopment and QA systems.
If I enter the value '5' in this field in Development and press enter, the value displays as '5.000'. If I enter the value in the QA field, however, the value displayes as '0.005'.
I have looked at domains and everything, but they seem simmilar.
Please advise fi there is something I have overlooked,
Thank you,

Hi,
Check in system default parameter settings. It works based on system default parameter settings.
System => User Profile => Own Data
In *Defaults* tab check the *Decimal Notaion* field.

After upgrading to itunes 7.3.2 system sound does not work

I recently upgraded my itunes to 7.3.2 and the sound worked for a short time. it then began to cut on and off until ceasing to work completely after a day or so. I have run diagnostics and my computer can produce sound, but not in any programs or any of the system sounds. i reinstalled windows xp and the sound worked, but when i installed itunes again the sound once again stopped completely. i have checked all the drivers, codecs, hardware etc. and they seem to be in order. what is going on?

I really struggled with this one and my IT people couldn't help. They suggested that I add my secure corporate website to the Java Exceptions Sites, and use the Java client, but that didn't work. I tried the CITRIX Native CLient (ICA Client) and that didn't work either. So, I searched my Mac for all of the instances of CitrixICAClient, or anything else with ICA in it. I then deleted all of those files, shut down Safari, rebooted my computer and tried again to log into my corporate site using the Native Client conenction option. I remembered from years ago, that the first time you try to connect using the native client, that Citrix plugin is downloaded. THat's exactly what happened and I haven't had any more problems. So apparently, you have to clean up a little adn make sure that any "old" citrix products are removed.

Screensaver, system sounds and itunes problem

I did all the updates and even used migration assistant so my computer has been through allot already. I do not know which update affected my screen saver and optical audio but my screen saver is having the same issue with two monitors. My VGA monitor displays photos when the screen saver kicks in but my macbook just says looking for pictures. I tried reseting pram, repairing permissions and "safe boot" but nothing works. My optical audio somehow messes with my system sounds and iTunes on first song or podcast played. Sometimes the progress bar will freeze and I can't move it.(the time counter for a track in iTunes). The system sound works off and on when I use optical audio out to my stereo receiver. I talked to apple care and the genius bar and they said I might need to archive and install from the recovery discs that came with my computer. I think if I did that and did all the updates then the problem would return because I think it is a firmware or software update problem and not third party software interacting with the system.

iTunes shouldn't do that. Normally when iTunes finds that it would like to move/rename a file after download or a tag edit, and the filename it wants to use is already in use, it adds a " 1" or " 2" to the end of the filename. It does not overwrite the original file. In fact if it had reused the filename then there would be two entries in your library, which would both have the same information and content. Is this the case? How exactly is the title of the film spelt?
File & folder names are limited to 40 characters in Windows so I would expect (judging by the titles given in the store) to find the movies in a folder called:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - P
and to be called
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.m4v and
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallo 1.m4v
Hopefully you have a backup of the missing file as, in principle, you are only allowed to create one copy using the redemption code.

Locations of server host name in different SAP system files

Hello,
We are implementing SAP ECC 6.0, with i5/OS V5R4 on IBM System i.
Could someone please guide me on the locations where the server host name exists in the different SAP system files.
We need to change this server host name, and the reason is that we succeeded lately in installing SAP on a new server using restore from entire system backup done on an old server where SAP is already installed, but we can't connect the new server to the LAN as the old server is still connected to it, and we can't have the same host name in the same LAN, even with two different IP addresses.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Best regards.
Reda Khalifa

Hi Reda
If the Host name is not the same..you may have to change in the startup/Instance/Default profiles, the new hostname...i.e..replace all the old hostnames with the new hostname....
Also ..you have to check the Data area R3_<NN> in R3<SID>400 library and check to make sure the hostnames correspond to the new hostname...
Then delete all the sql packages before you restart the system.
Hope that helps
Thanks

HELP!! Authorization in the same laptop with different operation systems

My BF installed Win 7 operation system on his laptop yesterday and re-authorized it when he used iTunes. However, when he finished authorization, a dialog block showing that "*Including this one, you have authorised two computers out of your available 5*" appeared; what's worse, when he connected his iPhone to the laptop, it deleted all the bought apps in the iPhone, instead of synchronizating.
I also want to install Win 7 operation system, but I'm afraid that the same thing would happen again (to my iTouch).
We're quite confused that why the authorization in the same laptop with different operation systems is counted as two times. Friends who know please tell us whether this is the case.. If not, please tell us how to deal with it as we frequently re-install operation system for quicker operation.

It's the *operating system* that is authorised, not the particular user profile or the hardware. Before upgrading/reinstalling deauthorise and you won't run out...

Seperate itunes from other system sounds

I want to make iTunes play music through
one interface, and system sounds come out
someplace else.
How do I do this?
I have built in speakers, a firewire audio card,
and optical spdif connections available.
I want my Itunes to go through either the firewire
or optical outputs, and have system beeps go
through the built in speaker.
I can't seem to get this to work. I've tried
the audio system preference panel, and the audio
Midi setup application. I'm sure I'm missing something
stupid.
Is there anyway to have itunes sound go though
one interface, and all other sound go through
a different interface? (I think you can do this with an airport express, but, I don't have one of those)

Maybe Detour can do what you want.
It's freeware now and not supported anymore, but it should work on systems with Mac OS 10.2 - 10.4 according to the information here,

System Sound wont turn off after 1.3.1 update

I turn off the System Sounds to not here when notifications come in when I sleep, but I want to be able to here the phone ring when I call comes in...i dont wont to have to mute the whole phone... Is there a problem ticket or a break fix open on this issue...
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I have the same problem. I could turn off system sounds at night which would stop the e-mail notifications, but still allow the phone to ring. After the 1.3.1 update, the systems sound slider has no effect. The only way I can mute system sounds is to turn the ringer switch off which mutes the phone completely. I contacted Sprint and they have no clue. And, of course Palm only works during weekdays and normal working hours. Palm really needs to test updates completely before releasing them. I note others are reporting similar sound problems under different headings.

I'm a lousy guesser so if you give more information on what year/model MPro and what MacOS version your running it'd sure help? Two different OS's two different ways to install.
If your running 10.7( Lion) then Apple no longer supports XP OR Vista and no longer makes Boot Camp drivers for them.

HT4085 I want to make auto make the autorotation and have system sound also, how can I fixed it?

I just update ios to 5.1.1.
Please help

See if this helps you understand it better.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

TO HP IN RESPONSE TO DOWNLOADING THE LATEST UPDATED AUDIO DRIVER:
My audio problem is opposite to one of your bullet points. I have a new operating system, sound was working fine, now on skype cannot be heard, iTunes will not load. All were fine before the change over. Over the past few days have gone through every type of troubleshooting offered online, my HP dv1000 came with the problem and I fixed it on the old os, just forget what I did. Recorder not working, etc.

First off, try downloading the latest Safari. I believe it's 5.1.9. While you're there download the combo updater for Slow Leopard 10.6.8 to get your system up to the final release.
If your system generally runs well then it's unlikely that it will be necessary. In any case, it's usually a last resort.
A lot of odd problems can be remedied by repairing your permissions.

Although there's nothing wrong with Adobe Acrobat 7 (to the best of my knowledge) you should be aware that OS X may be using Preview instead unless you've specifically designated Acrobat as the default PDF app. I actually prefer it in most cases.

System sound delay RDP session with Windows server 2012 R2 standard

I have the following problem during a RDP session with a Microsoft Terminal Server 2012 R2 standard:
when i produce a system sound, the delay could be up to 15 seconds before I hear the cound on the client side.
making immediately a second system sound, the delay is minimal,
When i wait about 10 minutes, the delay could be again 5-15 seconds.
This problem occurs both with Windows 7 and Motorola Scanners
I also noticed that after making a sound on the first device, there is also no delay when making immediately a sound on a second RPD session.
I tried different settings for audioqualitymode or audiocapturemode, no luck

Hi Henk,
As the way I see it, it’s a poor performance behavior of RDP.
You may try to update sound driver and fully patch systems to see whether performance can be improved.
“RDP was originally designed to flush the video frame buffer to the client about once every 100 milliseconds. While this is fine for most Windows GDI applications, graphic intensive applications, 3D applications and applications requiring audio
/ video synchronization don’t fare so well. With respect to streaming media in particular, RDP is only meant to cache the bitmap files (compressed) not the audio which is uncompressed over the wire”, quoted from the article below:
