Edit Locale Settings Link

I was wondering if anyone knows what API calls I must make to get the 'Edit Locale Settings' Link for a given user which exists on the 'My Account' page.
Thanks,
Mike
P.S. This is for version 5.x

I can tell you right now, building your own activity space to cut the steps and do what you want is about the only way to go.
What I would like to know is:
1) Did I miss a simple way of bypassing the MyAccount page to go straight to the Edit Locale Settings page?
- you could just hack the page, create a hyperlink and copy the edit local setting page url... that would work.
- however, you can never get it to redirect back to the current page the user was on, b/c that's now what this edit local setting page does.
2) Is the activity space the simplest and best way of accomplishing what I need?
- yes, b/c the locale setting needs to take place and a refresh of content needs to take place. Basically, you still need to mimick what the edit locale page did to get this to change instantaneously for the user as well as do the rest of the actions you described.
3) If not, would it be possible to create a custom tag to replace the PT:MyAccount tag so that the custom tag goes straight to the locale page?
- you could do it this way. But why not do #1 instead?
The short of it... going to the editor page is the simliest and easiest way about it. But the editor page points back to the my account page. If you want to change this behavior, you will have to hack it somehow... which is not possible really unless you build your own activity space.

When I download a jpg picture to Photoshop Elements Editor the file is stored in Documents & Settings/My Name/Local Settings/Temp but I cannot find this location on my computer.

The pictures are attached to e-mail messages. I can get as far as Documents and Settings and my name but there is no Local Settings folder shown. Using MS search with the name of the file gives nothing. I use Windows XP and Mozilla Firefox. The file appears in Photoshop Elements and I can save it as a psd file but I cannot find either the jpg or the psd files to move them into My Pictures.

The Local Settings folder is a hidden folder.
(1) If the file appears in the Downloads manager (Tools menu or Ctrl+j), you can right-click it and use Open Containing Folder to get directly to it.
(2) To be able to see hidden folders on Windows XP in general, try this:
Open My Computer or Windows Explorer
Tools > Folder Options > View tab
Scroll down and look for the checkbox regarding hidden files and folders and unhide them.
Hopefully this will resolve the issue. Any luck?
(3) By the way, you may be able to save the images from the email message to a more convenient location by right-clicking the links and using Save Link As. (Before you open them for editing.)

IISproxy problem: Edit locally - check in

Please try also the following settings:
use-continue=false
keep-alive=false
close-socket=true
These were reported by SAP support as the recommended settings for customer having problems with Local Editing and IIS Proxy.
ActiveX is for Windows only, Java Applet can be used also on other platforms. To use the Java Applet uncheck ActiveX, select "Java Applet" and set the version to "1.3" even if running 1.4 (again a recommendation from SAP support).
If it still doesn't work, you should check that your Java Plug-In actually works. Here is a link I always use to check that the Java Plug-In works:

Using local file links like file://n:/path/filename.txt in Announcements does not work

Hi all,
I would like to use the SharePoint 2013 announcement web part for our company intranet. Basically this works fine. Now and then we have the need to include local file links into the body of the announcement, e.g. "Read this new Version of
file x: link". When creating a new announcement I can insert a link like this:
file:///n:/path/file.docx or similar.
But as soon as I save the new announcement, the link is gone (href part is removed from the anchor).
Is this behaviour per design? Can I change it to allow local file links inside of list columns?
Thanks for your help,
Nothi

Hi Nothi,
We can go to that particular existing announcement list(e.g. mine is Announcement1)->list settings page.
1. then make sure the option "Allow management of content types? " is enabled from Advanced settings.
2. then click "Annoucement" content type link (like image below).
3. then click "Body" column link.
4. then click "Edit column" link.
5. then select "Rich text" option as above image showed, save the change.
6. then you can test again in this particular announcement list, it should work.
If you want make all announcement type lists could use link to network location in the furure, you can create a custom announcement content type with the Body column which has enabled this "Rich text" option, then use this
custom announcement content type for those lists.
Thanks
Daniel Yang

Thunderbird V3 Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | account name | Server Settings not listed in edit menu?

Thunderbird v 3 help info is different than what actually is shown in the edit option list. Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | <account name> | Server Settings
Looking for ISP setting that instructs ISP(rr) to keep emails on serer until erased by user. This setting was in earlier versions of Thunderbird. This settings is used to download email to other user computers. When user's computer breaks down user has to reload email onto new setup.
Scenario is to go to Thunderbird V 3 Edit --> Account Settings and discover this option no longer exists. See earlier version where you can go to Account Settings and select email to be left on server for optional number of days or until erased by user.
Thanks for help,
Bob

This is my problem too. I don't usually need to edit settings but yahoo or gmail have had temporary problems with their smtp servers, when they do I can simply go to account settings and change from one to the other. Now when I open the account settings window and left or right click on ANY account or setting for an account in the left tree I get the error window with this message:
"The Local Directory path "C:\Users\Len\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\dlcdrtl6.default\Mail\Local Folders" is not suitable for message storage. Please choose another directory."
Clicking OK in the window brings up another message window with the same message as above:
"An account with this name already exists. Please enter a different account name."
I cannot exit the account settings box by clicking OK. I need to click cancel. This effectively makes it impossible to change any account settings. This worked a few months ago as I switched smtp servers when gmail had problems, now I'm screwed if I need to.
This is a problem with one of the new versions it should be marked critical as account settings need be configurable and I don't see any workaround like there is for pasting links.

Java Script error with EDIT LOCALLY

HI All
We're on NW2004s, users run Windows XP with I.E 7.
Im trying to edit one document in my KM with the "Edit Locally" option. The moment I click on this option, it shows a Java Script error on the page and shows that the excel sheet is still opening (Loading....). It never opens.
The Java Script reads -> Object doesnt support this property or method.
Do I need to do any configurations ? Any clues ?
Regds,

and checked the folloing :
You can also verify the download as follows:
       1.      In the Web browser of the user, from the Tools menu, select Internet Options.
       2.      In the General tab, click the Settings button.
       3.      In the Settings window, click the View Objects button.
       4.      In the Download Program Files window, if any of the following appear in the Program Files list, then the ActiveX control was downloaded:
¡        ExpBaseNegotiator
¡        ExpApplSelect
¡        ExpApplShareX
The above files are not there in my Downloaded program files window. Which means my active x is not enabled.
Any idea where can I get these files ?

Locale Settings lost on mobile client 7.8.2.14 after creation of BIP report

Hi All,
we went live with BI Publisher reports (Siebel 7.8.2.14) at the beginning of June.
Now some of our users are having trouble with their mobile web client.
For example our colleagues in Poland have their Windows XP regional settings set to "Polish". It will make Siebel use date format for all date fields (e.g. activity start date) display as YYYY-MM-DD - this works just fine until user is creating a BIP report. After successfull report creation, all locale settings in the mobile client are lost. Instead of YYYY-MM-DD, the dates are displayed in DD.MM.YYYY and creation of new records produces and error. Also, currency and number formats are mixed up.
I assume it's a bug - anyone hit this before?
Edited by: Penky on Jun 17, 2011 11:38 AM

Yes, we finally decided to do so!
The main reason was that we had a lot of new report change requests and did not want to do the work twice (now in Actuate and then again in BIP). Also we plan our 8.x upgrade for second half of 2011 so this was already some kind of preparation, so we can completely focus on the upgrade afterwards and don't need to hassle around with the reports as well.
issues we're still facing include "user's are not able to run reports after they change their position" or "List reports can only be run for few records, otherwise the search spec hit's an IO field's length limitation" or "report popup can not be suppressed although there's no useful information in it" (not to forget the one described in this thread) and some others.
Well ... after 1 1/2 years since I downloaded the first integration QF the BIP journey still does not end - it's like it just started :)

When I go to
     Content Administrator --> KM Content --> Repository(having "Read Only" rights), and click on "Context Menu" an option "Edit Locally" come there. But as the repository has "Read only" rights, I need to disable that option.
Is there any way to do that?

Edit locally problem

Hello,
I have a problem with the edit locally command. I always get the error message <i>If your application does not start, your local settings may be preventing you from editing locally.</i>when trying to edit a file locally. The settings for local editing are
ActiveX Version Check: true
Active Component: ActiveX
Java Runtime Version: 1.3
Does anybody know help?
Kind regards,
Domink

Hi Dominik,
if you have restricted administrator permissions on you client PC the edit localy ActiveX can not be installed as mentioned in this <a href="https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=112607">thread</a>.
Check the information there, or better the updated SAP Note pasted there by Michael with the number: <a href="https://service.sap.com/~form/handler?_APP=01100107900000000342&_EVENT=REDIR&_NNUM=755581&_NLANG=E">755581</a>.

Problem in Edit Locally

Hi,
I can't able to work with "Edit Locally" in my text file in the Public document.
Can any body tell me,If i want to do any setting or adding any role ?...for enabling the "Edit Locally" option in my public document.
Regards,
Ravi.

Hi Ravi,
You need to configure edit locally in the KM Configuration either to run as Java Applet or ActiveX:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/a6/181b09bcc7fe4389c8c17d2ad849cc/frameset.htm
Also, as mentioned there "Regardless of whether you are using ActiveX or the Applet, you have to make ActiveX settings in the browser (Internet Explorer) in order to use the Edit Locally function."
You might also want to check all prerequisites mentioned here:

Firefox is creating endless copies of C:\Documents and Settings\Catain Kirk\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\afbrfhnj.default\Cache ... how do I stop it

I just installed 9.0.1 and it continually creates copies of C:\Documents and Settings\Catain Kirk\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\afbrfhnj.default\Cache ... how do I stop it !!!
I'm running Windows XP Version 5.1 SP3.

Hi,
That is the disk cache of Firefox, where contents of loaded pages are kept for faster retrieval and it also helps to conserve bandwidth. To disable this: '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''Network''', check (tick) '''Override automatic cache management ''' and put the value at zero.

Error Saving Localized Settings mean?

In the last month or so, I have received the following message when trying to open videos on the web and even my local weather forecast:
"Error Saving Localized Settings
Application is unable to access your file system "
I get it in Safari (6.0.5) as well as Firefox.
What does it mean?

Good morning:
This is not a new problem as evidenced by some web blogs going back three years.
It started when I disabled Java Script......the victim of a lot of cautionary items on its security issues.
Then odd things wouldn't play such as the hour-by-hour temperature display on a local TV station's site.
And occasional video links off reputable news sites. But not Youtube. Safari and Firefox are both afflicted.
I enabled Java, repaired disk permissions (which I do on a regural basis) plus a few other tricks I know.
Upgrades, etc., all up to date.
No luck.
I have had three I-Macs over 13 years and Apple Care for 12 of those years. Gawd how I miss 'em!
I'll try your suggestions.
Thank you!

Check in Later option in edit locally

Hi,
We are in EP NW04s SP10.
When i tried to Edit locally the documents in the KM repository , I am not getting the Check in Later option. I can see only Check In and Cancel Check out button.
And in the Recent Notification iview , I am not getting the Checked out Documents link.
I referred to the thread https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?messageID=872640.
But the property service is running in the Repository Manager.
Can anyone help to get the check in later option and the link in Recent notification iview.
Thanks & Regards,
Siva

Hi Siva,
Please double-check the prerequisites at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/3b/cbf52dde472343a5b8941dd43cc479/frameset.htm - for example, that you are not in "Personal Documents". Also keep in mind that you might need to restart the server if you have switched on the application properties service at runtime.
If all this doesn't help, open an OSS message.
Hope it helps

Edit Locally - Temporary file not removed after check in

Hello,
I am editing a Word document Abc.doc with Edit Locally (using ActiveX). After having done editing the document, I save the document and close MS Word. Then I check in the document by clicking on the button "Check In Now" in the portal screen. The document is checked in KM. At this point, the temporary file should have been removed automatically. However, the temporary file in my local drive under the folder Temp/docservice still remains and the file is now renamed to Abc.doc_send (instead of Abc.doc).
Does anyone know why the temporary file remain ? Is there any configuration need to be done so that the temporary file is automatically removed once the editing is done and check in.
We are using Portal 6.0 SP 16.
Many thanks in advance.

(1) If you have a local server, did you try to build locally, deploy locally and test.
(2) After checking-in your changes, did you activate, transport?
(3) Did the Basis team deploy the changed components to the target server (development server in your case)? If you want auto-deploy, you can set so in the NWDI Transport Studio settings.

Local settings for clients with print drivers installed on server?

Greetings,
We have a Windows Server 2012 R2 that has a print driver installed and shared (Xerox 560 ~ Fiery driver).
Clients map to this driver. I.E. they add printer from network and select it from the list.
However, because its mapped, they can't edit the driver or save their settings locally (for example: the accounting code is set in the properties of the driver and not in the preferences).
If they do, as admin, then those changes percolate back up to the sever driver and then to all clients.
My question is how do I get the clients to manage their own local settings, these settings being found in the properties of the print driver and not in the preferences?
I need to be able to set things that are set on the properties (and not preferences) of the driver locally on their computer, but I don't want to have to install the driver manually on every client.
Is their a way to have a local version of the properties page?
Is this possible?
Thank you for letting me know.
Antoine

may need to set the server as print server...
