File Manager Question, Airbrowser and others

Hi There People
I am new to the BB game and have only had my Bold for 1 month and the PB for 2 weeks. I have to say that the BB telephone support is simply fantastic, even with a newbie like me.
I use the BBPB strictly for work, no games, no music, no nothing...except repair orders, small (very) repair manuals, and a parts/price list. Imagine my surprise when I tried to find the file system manager and was told by BB support it doesn't exist, and I would have to use a third party app...fine. Now I have a very simple excel made repair order that I loaded successfully into my BBPB via my desktop software. I have installed "airbrowser" successfully. My issue is that after I made a file named "Repair" and moved that excel file into it, I open airbrowser and can see this file, so far so good, but I cannot open it from that location (inside airbrowser) only from the factory PB file icon will it open, in the airbrowser there is not even a button "open" like in the OEM app.
So my questions are :
Is my airbrowser app defective?
For my needs, = make a simple repair order file that I can search through to find a specific customer, then find the repairs in his name.
Should airbrowser work or should I try something like "Files and Folders" that is talked about here
Should I scrap this idea, and go to something completely different (laptop), any suggestions? I am a field service tech and my needs are very basic for what I thought the machine was capable of doing. Please I really don't want a laptop.
Sorry if this post is too long as I am always trying not to forget some detail.  BTW I have used the search button and read 100 posts before writing this.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for that !
Yup my file is a .xlsb, which from what I am thinking, might not be supported by airbrowser. So basicaly I'll need to try different excel templates that is recognized by that app.
Yes I saw the "unsupported" button but it was browned out like dissabled so I just thought it was inopperative...of course this was the first time I used the app so I didn't know how it was supposed to look.
jarviser thank you for your input, if I have more questions I will revive this thred.
Regards

  • Windows File compatibility, my iPod, and other questions

    After years of gripping about doing Video and Photo editing on my PC, I am considering switching to a Mac. But, given I have a heavy investment in PC hardware, I want to make sure I can leverage everything the best way possible. So...
    1.) I have a 20GB clickwheel iPod...any problem using this with a Mac? Need to be reformatted or anything?
    2.) Can you access ActiveX based websites without problems?
    3.) I have a Windows XP machine with 4 drives in RAID format. Could I use this as a common storage network drive for both Mac and PC's at the same time (for instance, store MP3's on it, and access and play them from either the iMac and other Windows PC's without a problem?). What about jpg formatted pictures? Any nuances between PC and Mac formats? (or is jpg really just jpg on either machine...I can open up the same picture on a Mac and a PC and see the exact same picture, without major color changes, etc.).
    I realize I need to reformat to FAT, but other than that, are their other problems I should know about? (I would like to use the RAID configuration to make sure I don't lose any data)
    That should start for now...
    Thanks - Jeff

    You can use it, and it will need to be reinitialised formatted for the Mac.

    No you can't access ActiveX websites with a Mac

    Yes

    Yes
    I realize I need to reformat to FAT,
    If the computer will still be running Windows and acting as a server then no you won't need to reformat to FAT.

  • File management workflow - in and out of PS CS

    I am getting used to using LR in my workflow and find it great for a simple shoot where I sort/cull, process and export. However I am getting into a bit of a muddle on the file management side
    1) Moving files in and out of PS
    I often create complex manipulated images - here I edit in photoshop and tend to create many versions. I save a version whenever I feel I have got somewhere with the file. However if I use 'save as' the file doesn't appear in Lightroom - I would have to go and re-import them. I've noticed that lightroom does create a new edit each time I close and reopen the edit, but this is time consuming and I don't want to do this.
    My process in PS CS would be to flag relevant raw files, open in PS and save to a Work in Progress folder. Here I would store the various versions. Then once the images had been finalised I would save to a Final folder.
    At present with LR - I am importing into LR, sorting/culling, using Develop for basic edits, opening in PS for manipulation and then getting into a muddle with files and versions.
    How do other people deal with the interlink between LR and CS?
    2) Creating a final portfolio
    I tend to export any final images as Tiffs in to a Final subfolder, as I am slightly wary of leaving them as Raw with an attached xmp in case things get messed around when I archive them to a separate HD.
    What is the best way of creating a "portfolio" library, versus a working library? Re-importing the Tiffs and keywording/rating for portfolio? Or creating a separate LR Library where only final files are deposited?
    I would be grateful for any tips/workflows you find work.
    Thanks

    <br />
    <br />One way around the latter is to convert to DNG as a final step. When i do this, I know the file is pretty complete. By using "Edit in PS" my work gets linked with the original RAW or DNG file, has ratings, key words, etc. But I've not done a lot in that area, and not sure how I'd handle multiple versions of photoshopped images from one RAW file. I might be inclined to save snapshots within PS or layer comps.

  • Tfman - text file manager, much different then others

    Tfman - text file manager.
    Performs operations on files through textual representation of file system.
    Textual representation is in the form of plain text, editable with any text
    editor and may contain multiple operations of every kind. Tfman can be
    used from command-line or from within Vim as multi-window file manager.
    It can be combined with tools like Sed or Awk.
    . written in C fo Unix-like operating systems
    . no dependencies (except gcc/clang and GNU Make for building)
    Features in short:
       - scan filesystem to create its textual representation
       - parse textual representation and perform retrieved operations
       - use favorite text editing tool to edit textual representation
       - scan, edit and parse in one step
       - use Tfman from command-line or from within Vim as multi-window file manager
       - integration with other decent text editors should be easy
       - available: brace expansion, globbing, entries grouping, whole directory operations and more
    Project's homepage:
    https://chiselapp.com/user/machel/repository/tfman/home
    Installation procedure (AUR or sources tarball) - see Project's homepage
    Documentation, sources, report issue - see Project's homepage
    Warning:
       Tfman is in an early state, it didn't receive sufficient testing yet. Please
       be carefull when manipulating sensitive data with it.
    Note:
       I do not know any file manager that manipulates file system in similar way.
       Therefore usefulness of this kind of approach is not proven.
       Help me prove it.
    Screenshots:
    Screenshot1
    New version pushed to AUR:
    - changing entry ownership and permissions now associated under one action tag
    - few other action tags changed
    - Quick Start Guide now available, see Project's homepage
    - bug fixes

    not as simple as I want it to be. Any ideas how to make it simpler are highly appreciated.
    Well, for start: Is there really a reason to use different character for directory and its subdirectories? As far as I can tell, you could just use '%' for all directories and decide what is top-level directory and what is subdirectory based on the indentation. Also, it would be nice to reserve '#' for comments, as it is common in many languages.
    machel wrote:2) Use action tags to specify operations. They apply to single entries, groups of entries or whole directories
    Here the complexity begins. There is 13 operations, if I counted it correctly in the man page. To be fair, some of them are just adding '*' enforce overwrites. Fine, that leaves us with about 9 operations to learn. I could probably do that But it would be better if it was less... Would it be possible to simplify operations that don't affect file location by allowing user to simply change the value in the text representation? It would probably require some kind of header (or some clever trickery), because the order of columns is not fixed, but it might be worth the trouble. You could also extend this to changing file times and perhaps other properties (those from '-F proper'). The linking and moving operators look good, with little exception of '))' - that just looks odd to me But that is definitely my personal taste... I'd prefer something like single '>'.
    machel wrote:3) Entry names and action operands - I believe using them is quite intuitive:
    Name relative to directory/subdirectory above:
      'name'
    If you want absolute name:
      '/name'
    If you want name relative to current working directory (where Tfman was invoked):
      './name'
    No problem with this, I like that.
    machel wrote:
    dolik.rce wrote:ability to execute commands on the files/directories
    What do you mean? Shell commands?
    Shell commands would be best, but generally just ability to execute command with given file/directory as input or parameter. Example usage would be something like this:
    # Dir
    file1 ^ sed -i -e 'some sed script here' becomes: sed -i -e 'some sed script here' < file1
    file2 ^% touch % becomes: touch file2
    The syntax is just an example, but in this case ^ would feed the file into the standard input of the command, and '^%' would replace '%' in commandline with the actual file name. For globing, command gets executed for each matching file.
    machel wrote:
    dolik.rce wrote:execute some actions conditionally
    Interesting idea. I must think about it.
    Tfman already have tags to stop parsing file, stop parsing line and goto next,
    disable whole dir/group or single entry, exclude entry from under directory/group,
    perform action on previous action's target, ignore errors.
    But it works unconditionally.
    I can imagine wanting to do something based on the properties of file or even based on output of external command. E.g. 'move file only if it's older then N days', or 'ask remote server if it has file X, move the file to directory upload/ when the command returns non-zero exit status'
    machel wrote:--- Tfm ---
    Remember about 'tfm' utility which is simple Tfman wrapper  scanning given directory,
    opening it in editor defined in EDITOR shell variable (Vim is default) and parsing
    result after you save and quit.
    It just compress 3 steps into 1.
    This is definitely handy, and probably only reasonable way to use tfman interactively. However, I'm not a vim-person - as I already said I'm lazy to remember anything, so you can imagine that learning enough vim commands to use it effectively would be a nightmare for me The same goes for tfmvi, I'm just not the target audience for that. But my EDITOR variable is usually set to nano, so I could easily use it with that, probably just with slightly more typing.

  • Best file manager with SMB and streaming support? Time Capsule access?

    Constantly having to jump through hoops it seems, because of no file manager in iOS. Another simple scenario: have 2 disks connected to my Apple Time Capsule. Can accesss them with Android phones, always in trouble finding a good app on iPhone. Any tips? Wish I could also stream my home videos, etc from these disks. Documents 5 (Readdle) can access them via SMB, but not stream, which is nasty for large videos.
    Thank you,
    Roman

    I was experiencing the same problem when I upgraded to a Time Capsule. To fix the problem remove all personal file sharing port mapping settings. Then make sure that the enable  file share, and enable over WAN is on and checked for the TC, then update the TC. While that's updating go into the server app and remove any old file sharing protocols from the TC on the server app. Next add a new custom protocol by hitting the + name it file share and set the port to 140. hit the update button and wait for it to finish. Once that's finish go back to the airport utility and find the newly made file share protocol by selecting it under port mapping for the TC. If you don't have the newly made one in there make a new one your self. Name it the same as you did in the server app and set the public TCP ports to 140 and the private TCP ports to 548, make sure the private IP address is set to the same as your server in the reserve. Update the time capsule and you should be able to access both by putting in the appropriate afp://www.yourserver.com:140 for the server and afp://www.yourserver.com:548  for the TC. Have fun, lion server can be a little fussy!

  • WS2012 Standard R2 with Essentials sudden problem with Server Manager, Essential Dashboard and other services

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with my Windows Server 2012 R2 with Essential installed. When I try to run Server Manager the server manager window doesn't appear and the same thing applies for starting the essentials dashboard. This leads to that some of the features doesn't
    work properly like remote web access, client backup and so on. When I check the Services a lot of services haven't even started. Trying to manually start for example Windows Server Essentials Management Services gives me following error message: 
    "Windows could not start the Windows Server Essentials Management Services on Local Computer. Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start"
    What can be wrong here? I haven't done anything to the server that could start these problems. This started all of a sudden. 
    Thank you all in advance for any help.
    EDIT:
    I rebooted my server in safe mode and I tried to run SFC /Scannow which stops at 84% and gives me following message:
    "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation."
    I also tried to run "DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth". This did not help either. It completes the operation but nothing changes. The problem is still there.
    I thought that my server backups were OK and that this problem would be gone by restoring the C: drive with backup image. The problem is that all my good backups was rewritten with new backups that could not take backup of the C: drive for some reason. Now
    I need to solve this problem without reinstalling the whole operating system.
    EDIT:
    I have also completed the chkdsk C: /r command and now the SFC /Scannow command can be completed, with notification that some files could not be fixed. I have attached the sfcdetail.txt file which points out that
    "tsgclean.exe" cannot be repaired. What has that file to do with my WS2012 problems...
    2015-01-04 03:12:54, Info                  CSI    00000477 [SR] Cannot repair member file [l:24{12}]"tsgclean.exe" of Microsoft-Windows-TSProxy-EdgeAdapter,

    Hi,
    Did you remember any operation which you had done before this issue occurred? For examples, install any update,
    install any third-party application or any other? Just a confirmation, thanks for your understanding.
    For those problematic services, please open services’ Properties and navigate to
    Dependencies tab, then check if all system components which this service depends on run as normal.
    In addition, please open Event Viewer and check if find relevant events. Meanwhile, please follow the path:
    %programdata%\Microsoft\Windows Server\Logs and check Dashboard log file if find more clues.
    By the way, when you run
    sfc /scannow command completely, did you open Server Manager or Dashboard again? Any difference?
    If any update, please feel free to let me know.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,
    Justin Gu
    Please remember to mark the replies as answers if they help and unmark them if they provide no help. If you have feedback for TechNet Support, contact [email protected].
    Hello Justin,
    Regarding the third-party applications:
    I have not installed any third-party application that could cause this problem. All my third-party applications that are installed on the WS2012 R2 are confirmed working well with the operative system and are installed at the time when I hadn't these problems.
    I cannot say anything about windows update because that is something that I update once in a week after checking that no user is reporting any issues. I have learned my leason with windows update when I had Surface Pro 2, that was a dissaster.
    Regarding the Windows Updates:
    Anyway, I tried to remove all the windows updates before as well (not the security updates) down to 5th December which is the time when I know that my server worked well. Only two updates could not be removed (KB3012199 and KB2989647). I don't
    know if these two updates can cause any problem?
    Regarding the problematic services:
    For example: Checking the properties for "Windows Server Essentials Management Service" -> It is dependable on
    "1. Active Directory Domain Services" and "2. Windows Server Essentials Provider Registry Service".
    No 1 is running but not no 2. If I try to start no 2 service it will give me the same message as before:
    "Windows could not start the Windows Server Essentials Management Services on Local Computer. Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start"
    Regarding the Logs:
    I have uploaded Dashboard log files which are created after 5th December to my dropbox account: Link
    Regarding the SFC command:
    Of course, when the SFC command was completed but with error that it could not repair
    tsgclean.exe I tried to start the essentials dashboard and WS2012 server manager with no luck.
    What about the error message? I looked up that file in the explorer and it is located in folder "C:\Windows\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft-windows-tsproxy-edgeadapter_31bf3856ad364e35_6.3.9600.16384_none_2ec8d374a0ac5606"
    Why can't it be repaired and what kind of file is that?
    Best regards

  • Why did my index.htm file generate blank? and other weirdness.

    Here's the story. Maybe someone can tell me where I made my mistake, or what happened. I'm numbering the steps for convenience in discussing this.
    1) I started a new project, a WebHelp project.
    2) I imported content in Word.
    3) I created an index, glossary, and TOC. I used wizards for some of this.
    4) I created a style sheet and applied it to all the topics.
    5) I added a skin from the gallery.
    6) I generated output.
    Then I sent that output to the UI developer on my project. He plugged it in to the web app, and it seemed to work fine. So then:
    7) I opened the project, edited the text, and removed glossary links (because I didn't like how they were working) individually.
    8) I generated a new TOC to match the changed topic structure (minor changes).
    9) I generated another output.
    I sent that output to the UI developer and he said it was blank. I opened index.htm and sure enough, it was indeed blank. In fact, it was Zero KB. I also noticed that four other files were blank: whfform.htm, whform.js, whskin_plist.htm, and whtbar.js.
    So then I decided to start over. I created a new project, imported just the html topic files from the old project, redid the index (in a  hasty and less thorough manner), decided to bail on the glossary for now, did a TOC and sent that to the developer.
    Now the Search pane is totally wonky, showing a list of characters and terms.
    So I am getting frustrated. The developer has tried monkeying around with stuff on his end, but it's not working. So he says, why don't you send me a build with everything?
    The problem is, I have two broken builds. The first one, which for whatever reason has the blank index.htm file (and other blank files), and the second one, which has no glossary, a messy index, and a screwed up search.
    I can't seem to find anyone else having this problem. :-/  Can someone help? 
    Thanks so much,
    Tamarleigh

    I am having the exact same problem, and I think I've figured out what is happening here. There is an issue when mapping Word styles into RH. The person who setup our Word template included a sidehead with conditional text to hide instructor notes when printing participant training manuals. I removed the conditional text, and everything is working fine. You may want to double check to make sure you don't have conditional text in your Word docs. I've uploaded an image with the code below to show how the conditional text looked when the document was linked and generated.
    Check out the code below:
    <table cellspacing="0">
              <tr>
                        <td style="vertical-align: top; padding-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px;

  • File management questions with iPhoto 8

    I am new to iPhoto, not just version 8. I need to understand a few basics about the Apple way of handling photos. First off let me say that I have a MacBook Pro and a Windows XP desktop pc. I just set up an external harddrive as my storage space for my photos. They were on my pc, but I want to take advantage of iPhoto and manage them via my mac laptop. So I formatted the external drive as a mac drive, purchased a copy of MacDrive so that my pc can read/write to this drive as well and transferred all of my photos to the external harddrive. 14 gigs. I suppose I should now delete them off my pc...
    Before I moved my photos, I organized them all into appropriate folders, consolidating them and removing any duplicates that occured sometimes when I accidentally re-imported the same photos from my camera.
    I imported the photos on my external harddrive into iPhoto's photo library, using the alias approach instead of having iPhoto make copies of the photos. (I don't need to waste yet another 14 gigs!) So now I have numerous Events, most of which relate directly to the folders I created for my photos. I noticed however that in some instances, iPhoto created multiple events for photos within the same folder.
    Here are my questions...
    If I merge events in iPhoto, I noticed my folders do not change. Am I just messing around with the aliases, sorta like creating playlists in iTunes? Is there any way to keep things in sync between my folders and my events, so that the contents of my folders match the contents of my events, or is this unwise or unnecessary?
    If after I have imported my photos into iPhoto, what happens when I merge my folders of photos on my harddrive, outside of iPhoto? Does iPhoto keep up or do I have to somehow update my iPhoto library? Refresh it? What happens when I add more photos, say with my pc? Do I have to import the new folders of photos into iPhoto each time?
    I also have a question about keywords. From the demo movie I watched on apple.com, I saw that one can search for photos using keywords. In the demo, the presenter typed the name of a person and all the pictures of that person appeared. If I want to do this, does this mean I have to add for example the keyword "David" to every picture David is in? Can the name simply appear in the title for the photo and still get picked up within the search results? Is there an easy way to assign keywords to multiple photos at the same time?
    Thanks for helping me start out on the right foot!
    Paul

    Dani:
    You don't have to duplicate photos when using iPhoto in it normal, copy to library, mode. Once you import the files you can delete the ones used to import. However, if you're a professional then you've probably read the DAM book, Digital Asset Management, and it implies multiple backup copies.
    Files imported in the alias mode retain the color profile that was added by the camera. If you edit in iPhoto then the resulting modified will will have a default profile. In my case the profile went from sRGB IEC1966-2.1 to Camera RGB Profile. But if you use Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto you can manage the profile with it.
    I like iPhoto 7 much more than 6. It's editing capabilities are much improved but still no match for PS. It also writes the metadata, comments, keywords and title to the file when exporting. It also allows you to modify the EXIF Capture Date and write it to the original file.
    As with any application you must have backups and backups. Also always keep a minimum of 10 GB free space, 15 or more if you'll be doing some heavy editing with PS or work with video. That's important. So that means an external FW hard drive or two for redundancy backups. That is if you're serious about it.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Azure vs. AWS questions (CDN and other services)

    Hi all,
    We are currently migrating from AWS to Azure and we have a bunch of different questions mostly related to CDN (in comparison to AWS) that we couldn't find online:
    What is the right way to have a CDN that returns static content (Storage) and fallbacks to a virtual machine when the content is not available? Think about a service that automatically creates images when you ask it to, and
    saves them on a Storage bucket for later reuse. On AWS we could do this using CloudFront + 404 handling.
    Is it there something similar enough to CloudFront? That can reroute queries based on paths and/or different http codes?
    When hitting a CDN that reroutes to a VM we get "504 Gateway Timeout" on some requests, that same resources return fine if we ask the resource for a second time. What we are doing on that request is asking the Storage
    service for some image and returning a 302 redirect if it's not there. Perhaps the first request takes too long and that's why the CDN throws that error? A fresh example of this was on this URL: http://az3.hinchas.co.uk/t/4/h/f/4hfaQHaZbRfvPSjsQVe4nH_768x768yz.jpg
    What's the recommended or fastest way to access public Storage from a VM? We are currently using the public DNS.
    There is still no way to have nodejs deamons that need some compilation, right? Versioning the compiled objects is not a option for us now, as we only develop on Linux and Mac and it would make our current build process way
    more complex.
    When using Azure's API service, can we customize API routes based on paths or parameters and proxy some requests to amazon in order to ease the migration ? 
    Are there any recommended/official solutions to autoscale cassandra or elasticsearch clusters?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    Did you talk about azure CDN? If yes, When you enable CDN access for a storage account, the Windows Azure portal provides you with a domain name of the following
    format: http:/ /<guid>.vo.msecnd.net/. This domain name can then be used to access blobs in a public container. When a request is made using the Windows Azure CDN URL, the request is redirected to the CDN endpoint closest to the location from which the
    request was made to provide access to the blob. If the blob is not found at that endpoint, then it is retrieved from the Blob service and cached at the endpoint, where a time-to-live (TTL) setting is maintained for the cached blob. The TTL specifies that the
    blob should be cached for that amount of time in the CDN until it is refreshed by the Blob service. The CDN attempts to refresh the blob from Windows Azure Blob service only once the TTL has elapsed. For more detail information about azure CDN, you could refer
    to:http://azure.microsoft.com/blog/2009/11/05/introducing-the-windows-azure-content-delivery-network/
    If using azure CDN, we could not get the Gateway Timeout error.Fastest
    way to access public Storage, you may consider the file sharing service:http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazurestorage/archive/2014/05/12/introducing-microsoft-azure-file-service.aspx
    For the Azure API related issue, I suggest you ask in Azure API Management forums:https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=azureapimgmt
    For the autoscaling, you could use the Azure Management API to achieve, more detail information, you could ask in Azure API forums as mentioned.

  • Profile Manager, Push, Kerberos and other oddities

    Hey all,
    First time setting up a Mac Server on our network, thought we'd give Lion a try since we're seeing more and more Macs make their way into our ranks. I'm having issues with the following areas, hopefully someone could shed some light.
    Push
    I can't for the life of me get push to work behind our Firewall. I opened up TCP Port 5223 as outlined in the Apple Docs but that doesn't get me anywhere. Do I need to NAT that port to the lion server? I thought that push sent notifications down to individual machines and then they went and grabbed the new config from the server? How does a firewall with NAT know what machine to send the notification to? Any help would be appreciated.
    Also, what are you supposed to manage users with, the Work Group Manager or the Profile Manager. It seems like apple is moving away from the WGM style of management, although you can't do everything in PM, like setting up home folders etc. Very confusing to a novice.
    Email Addresses in Profile Manager configurations and Webmail.
    I might be missing something really simple here, but no matter what I do the Profile Manager spits out a default payload for email with our FQDN as the email address for the user ([email protected]). I have set the local alias and checked the checkbox to allow our example.com domain to work. Manually setting the email address to [email protected] works just find. I'm a bit bothered that everytime I push a configuration out to a device I'll have to go back in and manually change the email address. Has anyone figured out how to change that?
    In webmail it always lists the email address as [email protected] instead of [email protected]. You can go in and edit the identity and all is right with the world, but that's sort of a pain? Seems like common sense that you could set that as the default.
    Kerberos
    I was excited to get a Single Sign On solution going for our users since it would come in handy, however, straight out of the box it just doesn't work.I'm also not sure what to look for in the logs to make sure that things are working smoothly. I'm joinging the client machines to the server by going into users and clicking join. Selecting the server from the drop down and hitting submit. Do I have to set up a search order and all that jazz or is that set up automatically then.  I can see that I'm getting tickets with the Ticket Viewer but I'm still getting prompted for passwords in mail, ichat, AFP etc. Close to giving up on that front.
    Any help or general words of encouragement appreciated. 

    Push
    You've opened the secure iChat port to have push notifications working? Take a look here for the right ports:
    http://help.apple.com/advancedserveradmin/mac/10.7/#apdCA9A73CE-5F0C-4BDC-93E8-2 952C362FA3E.
    On that page are all port numbers you need to forward to your server.
    Email
    The addresses being displayed as [email protected] is a bug in Lion Server in my opinion, you can file a bug report at apple.com/feedback.
    Kerberos
    Is as poorly documented as invisible in OS X Lion Server. Single Sign-On is a great tool for making services more user-friendly, it should be top of mind at Apple. You can file an enhancement request at apple.com/feedback.
    Regards,
    Mark

  • Uploading data file with specific encoding and other metadata

    Hello everyone.
    I've been recently testing Microsoft Codename "Data Hub". When select the option to upload a CSV or XLSX file to populate my database, it basically has two problems, in my opinion:
    1. It would be great if I could select the file's encoding. If my file is in Spanish, it won't properly load latin characters (e.g. accents, or special characters). The information ends up showing with a bunch of weird characters.
    2. It also doesn't let me select which character to use as data separator. It uses the comma as the default. Some of the data might contain commas, so I usually change the separator to a pipe in my CSV files.
    Does anybody know any workarounds?
    Thanks.

    Hey there, and apologies.  I wanted to reach out and see if this is still a problem for you.
    I also wanted to check if this is a question about Azure SQL Database or something else?
    Thanks Guy

  • File Management Question

    This may win for "stupid question of the year" but I'll ask regardless...is there a way I can change the name of multiple picture files? Instead of going through all my 10,000 pics and changing the names 1 by 1 is there a way I can change a bunch at the same time? for example: I have decided I want to name my picture files by date-so can I somehow select a couple at a time and put in the name I want and it will just use that name with a couple of numbers after it? Please help!

    You could use applescript. It's tricky.

  • Adobe Application Manager Download Error (and other problems)

    Last week I purchased a Creative Cloud membership (Student and Teacher Edition, if that matters at  all).  When I tried to download applications, the Adobe Application Manager seemed to be unable to connect and instead displayed "Download Error. Press Retry to try again or contact customer support."  I read some of the responses to this problem on the forums, and after trying several things, I got it to work (I'm honestly not sure what I did that caused it to work).  However, it is now failing to work again and I can't seem to fix it this time.  As an additional problem, When I tried to open Adobe Premiere Pro (which I managed to download when I got the App Manager working for a while), I got the opening screen that asked me to open a project or start a new project.  No matter what I clicked on, Premiere Pro closed with an error message. Just as with the App Manager (and at the same time), I managed to get Premiere Pro to work (it seemed to work after I set permissions so I thought I solved it), so I was able to use it for a day.  However, now the problem has returned.
    I don't know if these two problems are related, but they started working at the same time and stopped working at the same time, so I'm posting them together in case there is a connection.  I am running Windows Vista on my home computer.  I can sign on to the creative cloud online without problem so it recognizes me as a creative cloud subscriber.  My Internet connection is working fine.  I have disabled all firewalls and it still doesn't work.  Very frustrating, obviously.
    Thanks for your time and any help or suggestions you can give.

    Kardypaine for your Internet configuration difficulties I would recommend reviewing Sign in or activation errors | CS6, CS5.5 Subscriptions, CS6 Perpetual - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html.
    For the failure of Premiere Pro to open you will want to review the install log to see if you received an installation error.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation logs at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.
