Exported spreadsheet for windows is sent out as read only.

Hi there,
I am trying to export two spreadsheets. I export and send both of them ok. The second one for some strange reason once received by the other person who uses Windows is as read only and the person is not allowed to make changes.
I would like to know if it is some weird glitch or of there is some button tab where I can set the properties or unmark this option. I am sending both to the same person and the prob is with the second one.
Thanks
E

Thanks GKaiseril
I found this in the forums from a previous post by try67
It works perferctly.
However in his post he left off the last bracket }
for (var i=0; i<this.numFields; i++) {
var f = this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(i));
if (f!=null && f.type!="button") f.readonly = true;

Category for service desk message to be read only

Dear Friends,
Do you know how to do the customizing that if the category is initial, this can be maintained, otherwise it will be read only?
Thanks and best regards,
Anders

Hello Anders;
this is quite simple. In order to do this you ll have to implement a Standard Badi CRM_ORDER_FIELDCHECK
Using parameter CRM_ORDER_FIELDCHECK of type CRMT_INPUT_FIELD_NAMES; you ll be able to set value of 'changeable' to 1 for 'fieldname' you want to become read only (category)
This will definitely solve your pb

Getting my External HD out of "Read-Only" permission...

Ok, I just recently purchased my Mac used from my school, and because it has a marginally small Harddrive, I purchased an external drive to suppliment. But, after installing the device drivers, the HardDrive claims to be "Read Only" meaning that I can't store anything on it, defeating the purpose...Can anyone help me figure out how to change my permission settings on the Hard Drive so that I can use it? Thanks.
eMac Mac OS X (10.3.9) External Hard Drive

Select the disk in the Finder and choose Get Info from the File menu; next, check the disk's format.
If the disk's format is Windows NT Filesystem, use the Disk Utility in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to erase the disk.
If the disk's format is MS-DOS, FAT32, or Mac OS Standard, look on the drive for a physical switch which might control the ability to write to the disk.
If the disk's format is UNIX File System or any Mac OS Extended variant, change the permissions in the Ownership & Permissions section of the Get Info window so you can write to the drive.

MS Windows "Custom Folders" appears as Read Only in Mac

Hi,
I'm new to Mac, and started copying my old PC data to an external drive, so I could access it in my MacBook, before reformating my PC.
I copied a lot of folders (around 100 Gb) and noted that some folders are "read only" in that external drive. I remembered my unix time checking for chmod/chwon attributes, but I didn't see anything different from read/write folders. I could note just one thing. This "read only folders" are folder that, in my PC, had "Custom Icons", or "Custom images" attached to it.
I tried a lot of chmod/chwon combinations, but Terminal always said I have no right (or something like that, I don't remember now), so I gave up and copied from "Shared Folders", FTP or "one by one", and now it appears to be Ok.
Does anyone already saw this issue? If yes, is there a way to "force" that folder to be read/write? I tried using Finder to Find folder/files that were readonly (so I could identify each one), but I din't find the option. Anyone knows how?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The external drive is already formated in FAT32. Only my old PC is formated with NTFS, and the problem itself is while accessing theses files/folder in the external drive, not the PC (I'm not accessing the PC directly).
FAT32 file system can't handle unix permissions and any file on such a drive will be listed as having full read+write access for everyone. However, if a file is read only in windows, it will be locked in OS X and there is absolutely no way to unlock it from OS X side short of reformatting the drive. You need to log into windows and unlock or delte the file from there.

InDesign-error exporting to pdf with art linked to a Read only server

My question is about an error exporting a PDF from InDesign ("Cannot export pdf"). The InDesign file has links to art (a .psd file) from a secure file server where I have Read permission only--not Read/Write. The error only happens when I have linked art from this server.
To export a pdf, is it necessary to have Write permissions to the server that has linked art? To export to PDF of course I am not changing the linked file! My InDesign file only links to it. So why doesn't it work if I have Read permission?
Can anyone help?
Can it really be that Read only permission is not enough for linking to art and making a pdf?

I wouldn't think it would be a problem. Are you sure you have write permission where you want to save the PDF?

Windows installed but all files Read Only

Hi guys
I have just installed windows 7 on my macbook pro using bootcamp. Every seems to be working great except for all my files are read only. I go to properties uncheck read only apply it to the file and it fails because it needs administrator permissions. I have tried to change permissions to full control and it fails to apply it to any of the folders.
Any help would be much appreciated
I'm a pc! All the problems with windows xp, vista, 7 were my idea!

Setting IFS Windows share (O drive ) to read-only

Hi
I was wondering what is required to make the Windows node (O drive) read only for all users when they access it from Windows Explorer.
Is it just a question of, in IFS Manager, setting the Node(myserver:53141) to the ACL "Protected"?
Any help will be most welcome.
Thanks
Hugo

Is your host on a Windows machine or a Linux/Unix machine? If the later perhaps you could use SMB for your Windows mounts and map all users to an account that was restricted to read-only. This way users could use WebDAV for full priviledge access but the O:\ mounts (by Samba) would be read-only.
If your server is Windows, I'm not sure how to fool Windows but perhaps some Windows guru can tell us.

Implement strategy for ASA on TACACS w/ restricted read-only access

An ASA5550 will need to be configured to use TACACS AAA. Currently, the ASA is setup for local authentication. A couple of privilege 15 admin users and a few more privilege 5 read-only users.
ASA 5550
running ASA 8.2(2)
using ASDM 6.3(5)
authenticating to ACS 4.2
The admin users and read-only users already have established TACACS usernames and are in established TACACS user groups for logging into routers/switches.
What's the best way to implement configuration of the ASA and ACS server to maintain the same type of restrictions that's applied using the local database?
1. Try and avoid the creation of a second TACACS username for the admin and read-only users.
2. ACS allows restrictions on what devices can be access by users/groups. Possible to do reverse? Restrict what usernames can access a device in the ACS database.

If you want to configure ASA for read-only access via tacacs then you have to do the following task
ASA/PIX/FWSM Configuration
In addition to your preset configuration, these commands are required on ASA/PIX/FWSM in order to implement command authorization through an ACS server:
    aaa-server authserver protocol tacacs+
    aaa-server authserver host 10.1.1.1
    aaa authorization command authserver
On the ACS, you need to create command authorization set for only SHOW commands:

Export CSV for Windows

I am having an issue exporting as a CSV to use on Windows. Specifically I am trying to export a table setup so I can import it into Outlook for contacts.
Its seems that when I export to CSV, even if I choose the Windows encoding option (Western - Windows Latin 1) the CSV file does not use Windows return characters.
When I open the file up in Notepad in windows everything is on one line with the "box" character where the returns should be.
As such Outlook can't import the file.
Doing a find/replace to fix the return characters is easy enough, but this seems to be an annoying bug that should be fixed.
Choosing a Windows encoding option should use Windows return characters, right?
Anybody else experienced this? Have a fix that doesn't require manually doing a search/replace on the csv file after export?

Best export solution for windows clients

Hi,
I need to regularly make files playable & editable on windows machines of all different specs/os versions for various clients.
I've been going to AVI at DV PAL codec, using MPEG Streamclip (cos I like the batch processing), but I've recently started having problems with large files (20 - 30Gb) lately. i hav a test windows box, and Windows Media Player won't open the large files.
I experimented with doing these in Quicktime Pro & in Visual Hub as well. QT Pro gave me nil picture. Visual Hub gave me a 4 Gb file and truncated the rest of the movie.
I've been doing a bit of reading and experts on forums like this keep saying words to the effect "Why are you going to AVI which is obsolete & not supported?"
I have PC based editor friends on Vegas & Premiere, and they say they need AVI.
I could go to WMV as I have Flip for Mac Studio (and Visual hub)..
What I really need is advice on a "lowest common denominator codec/container" combo that plays on Windows media player, so clients can marvel at their home movies, as well as can translate to most lower end PC editing packages, like Windows Movie Maker, Premiere Elements, Ulead, etc., when they decide they want to edit them.
I thought AVI @ DV would be the go..
Any ideas gentlemen?
Pete

Hi kirk,
..thanks for your reply.
It's not a Fat32 problem - I am well aware of that limit. I bought Paragon to be able to write to NTFS from my Mac. Anyway, these files are failing to play back on the Mac that made them.. from the desktop..
I have an imac 17" intel that also has Mpeg Streamclip on it and it's working absolutely fine..
So I was wondering if maybe a software update that has been done on my main machine and maybe hasn't been done of the 17".
Or maybe a hardware issue - My main Mac might be dying or something..
I have the Flip for Mac Studio, and also Virtual Hub, so I can make WMVs - the point is would I want to unless a client specifically requested it? (I've had some TV stations ask for WMVs!)
I thought AVI was the best choice for my clients to be able to future edit their files. Even those who do not choose to edit will burn their own DVDs, so I wouldn't think that H.264 would be a good choice for that, even though I personally really like that codec for other purposes.
One reason I was considering WMV for all PC clients is that then they could all open the files,no matter what their hardware/OS version.. and at least edit the files in Windows Movie Maker. Maybe if they want to edit in Premeier or such, and it wants AVIs, then they can download the PC version of Mpeg Streamclip and do it themselves..
Any ideas?..

Here is a tough one for Windows/Mac gurus out there

Have two active directory users that are on two Macintosh computers.
user #1 is on Windows Exchange 2003 MailServer1 and user #2 is on Windows Exchange MailServer2
Both MailServers have the Microsoft Exchange IMAP4 service turned on.
User #1 has no problem connecting to mailserver1 with any Macintosh Mail client
User #2 continually receives login failure errors...Event ID 1051 IMAP4SVC in event viewer with using EXCHANGE or IMAP option.
If User#2 configures their mail client with user# 1nformation, she is successful connecting to mail
If user#1 configures their mail cleint with user#2 settings, she is not successful.
The problem is mailserver2 something is not configured as it is on mailserver1
Any administrators that have had this problem, looking for a checklist to resolve issue...
thanks

Resolved the problem!
What the problem is in Active Directory if the user ID is not the same as the Exchange Alias then the problem occurs...
For example:
In Account tab in Active directory user ID is kf304
but in Exchange General tab you have kfrank in the alias field.
You will not be able to connect to Exchange server with IMAP service (this is for any computer regardless of OS using the IMAP4 service)
Once you change the alias to match the user ID in this case change kfrank to kf304, you are able to connect to the Exchange mail server!

I have an iphone 5 which has recently been updated with IOS 107. Voicemails come in but I cannot access them. Has anybody any answers to this one. I have also had to stop iMessages as they don't get sent out, I can only text in the normal way. Help.

Help please. Following the most recent update my voicemail receives incoming messages but I cannot play them. I cannot access visual voicemail either. Also imessaging no longer sends messages. So I have had to resort to text with my work colleagues.

Contact your phone carrier for visual voicemail issues.

Anyone else having an issue with TCP connections using iCloud for Windows?

Hi,
Before I asked this question, I did wait to see if any related questions came up, but none did, so I submit it now.
On my admittedly older laptop running Windows 7 64b Home, I've run into difficulties with the iCloud for Windows app to the extent that I had to uninstall it.
It would that, as my laptop was running, in the background, iCloudServices.exe would endlessly iterate TCP connections, which, while not actively sending or receiving any data, after some hours would number over 100 instances, taking up resources, and grinding my laptop's WiFi connection to a grindingly slow pace. I ended up, within the app, turning off everything, iCloud Drive and Photos, (I never used bookmarks), but still this would continue to occur.
I contacted Apple Support, explaining what was going on, and they stated they only dealt with IOS and gave me a Microsoft Support number. When I called Microsoft support, I came more and more to the realization that the issue was specifically with the iCloud for Windows app, as that was the only software that was endlessly creating and not closing TCP connections as it was. How was Microsoft supposed to solve an issue with Apple code?
So I called Apple back, whereupon they insisted it was a Microsoft issue. I explained other cloud services installed on the same computer were not having the same issue, it was unique to ICloudServices.exe. They stated they only dealt with IOS. I stated I purchased an iPad Air less than 7 months ago, and was trying to run iCloud in support of that. They again stated they only dealt with IOS, and suggested I again try Microsoft. I asked them if it was reasonable to expect Microsoft to solve issues with Apple code? They said regardless, there was zero support offered for anything having to do with Windows, and all I could do was uninstall the app, which I did, though that did not feel very satisfactory to me. My thinking is, if Apple writes a Windows app in support of their hardware, they should offer support for it.
Anyway, I was just wondering, is this an issue unique to me? or have others experienced a similar issue? I found this issue by opening the Windows Resource Monitor, looking under the Networking tab, and scrolling through the TCP Connections section to find 100+ concurrent iCloudServices.exe instances listed, whereas even Chrome, with multiple tabs and extensions, topped out at around 20.
My one month old Desktop, DYI, sports a solid Asus 1150 MoBo, i7-4790k cpu, 16GB Ram, and an EVGA GTX 970 video card. I list some specs only to illustrate this computer has no hardware issues in comparison to my long in tooth laptop. On this desktop, running Win 8.1 Pro 64b, at least as many, identifiably Apple, background service TCP connections are created even compared to Chrome, regardless of many tabs being open, many extensions, and even some related apps. Adobe does not even come close, though I run the full CC subscription. On this new computer, running Windows 8.1 Pro 64b, there are currently over 50 TCP connections and loopbacks that do not identify themselves, with just a - for the Image, and PID. With the experience on my laptop, I wonder how many of these are generated by Apple software, if not specifically iCloud software?
The frustrating aspect of these connections is they seem in no way active, While the Chrome and Adobe connections can be seen to be transferring data, as long as I am not running iTunes, or so have my iPad actually plugged in, it seems 99% of the time these iCloudServices.exe connections are just taking up ports, neither sending nor receiving any data discernable to me under the Processes with Network Activity, or Network Activity lists, both displayed in the same window as the TCP Connections in the Windows Resource Monitor.
Though I am fairly ignorant as regards coding, it seems as if there is no call to close a connection, very specifically, iCloudServices.exe, when it is no longer needed, and the next time a connection is needed, a new one is opened, rather than accessing the one previously opened. The only other reason I could imagine this might be occurring is if my Norton Internet Security software might mask and/or block the port after a certain time of inactivity.
Anyone out there have any ideas or advice about this? Thanks in advance.

Thanks jared,
I'm still dealing with this issue through Apple. Some time after I posted this, I contacted Apple again. They did start a case up for me, as I was experiencing the same behavior on two different machines, with two different versions of Windows.
So far it remains unsolved. I've logged iClouds for Windows on my desktop, which is brand new, then logged for awhile after completely uninstalling Norton Security Suite, depending on the Microsoft security for some time, and finally logged after I uninstalled iCloud for Windows, restarted, installed a clean download, and connected using a completely different test account, which Apple set up for me. None of this made any difference. Looking at the logs, it seems every 10 minutes, iCloudServices.exe creates a new TCP connection to confirm I'm using less than 5GB on iCloud, (which I am by a good margin, using less than 2GB), it seems this connection is not closed, and when the next iteration rolls around 10 minutes later, a new TCP connection is created. I come very close to having 6 TCP connections created per hour, until I restart my computer. This works out to... 6 x 24 = 144/day.
Perhaps the article you posted will shed some further light on this. I'm thinking seeing the state of the connection through netstats, at the least, could help.
For the last week, I've been putting a hold on further logging, as Apple wants me to create a new user account on one of my computers, install iCloud for Windows there, and log it running in the other account. This however basically means I cannot use my computer for a fair number of hours, and I've been busy enough with work the past week that I haven't the time or energy to afford to set this up and run it. I've had need of my computers too much for the past week.

This was something interesting that came out of Microsoft's Worldwide Partner Conference today, straight from the lips of Terry Myerson, the Executive VP of the Windows and Devices Group.
He also was quoted as saying "Last week we announced a focusing on our Lumia lineup..." Again, further proof that Microsoft is not abandoning Windows Phone or Windows 10 Mobile.
