GPO is set for "Auto download and notify for install" but it does not work correctly on two of my servers.

Hello,
I have a problem with two of my servers. I have ~200 servers which are updating fine through WSUS. The settings are as you can see "3 - Auto download and notify for install" in the GPO.
This is the correct setting. I want to achieve that I can install the updates whenever I want on these servers. On client computers there is a strict schedule with auto installs.
My GPO works fine for 98% of my servers. On two servers (a big file server and a TMG server) the settings are made as you can see in the screenshots, but the updates still get installed automatically.
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here... It is a big problem for me that updates get installed automatically on these servers.
Although the Policy and the Registry both say 3 the server behaves like option 4 is active.
I would be very thankful for any input on how to find out what's the issue here.

and was not able to find any sign of an admin installing it in the WindowsUpdate.log.
Then the Windows Update Agent DID NOT install this update, and it's not really a WSUS issue.
My typical response to such a claim would be to ask you to show me in the WindowsUpdate.log where the update was installed... but it seems that request has already been answered.
The more relevant question it seems, is HOW DID these updates allegedly get installed?

  • Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

    If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

  • Flash Player has downloaded/installed, but still does not work

    This is a relatively new problem for my computer, but from what i have read, is a common problem so I know it is not my computer.  Out of the blue, click on a video and all i see is a black screen.  No adobe logo saying i needed to update or download in order to watch video.  So i unistalled, rebooted and reinstalled..nothing.  I uninstalled/installed with zip..nothing.  Everything that is enabled is enabled..nothing.  Reset IE...nothing.  Downloaded Mozilla..nothing.  I am currently running windows xp, IE 8 (32 bit) and all security software are disabled.  The crazy part is that when i check the file for flash player, it does not show any bites in file.  I know there should be bites in there because i checked on a computer with working flash player and it shows 6.00 mb.  So somewhere from the installation, the file is lost.  i have tried pretty much all suggestions, dating back from '09 and really really need some advice.  

    ok..flash player x is listed.  always has been.  i don't understand the whole "no files" bit cuz the computer that i am using show 6.00mb in files.  unless it is outdated? this computer is brand new, custom made as of last month to my specs, so i can't see how adobe would be outdated.  Mozilla shows in my add/remove files, but that flash player plugin is nowhere to be found.  in fact, this is all the adobe files i see in order:
    Adobe AIR
    Adobe Download Manager
    Adobe Flash Player10 Active X
    Adobe Flash Reader X
    Adobe Shockwave Player 11.5
    i am really not liking mozilla, however...upon clicking a video, it is telling me i need to update to newer version of adobe.  When i click on dl, it gives me a window to save as a binary file.  it will not download and all security/firewall are off.  Shockwave has always been enabled.  pretty much anything you posted to do in past threads..i have done.  its driving me crazy
    i can bring up other websites, just cannot watch videos and was stuck on that redirect to adobe forum..will try the forum again.

  • I have an apple ID which I use to sign into icloud for my iPad and iPhone.But when I use the same ID for setting up iCloud on my Macbook it says INCORRECT ID or password, try again. I tried changing my passwords but it does not work for the macbook.

    I have an apple ID which I use to sign into icloud for my iPad and iPhone.But when I use the same ID for setting up iCloud on my Macbook it says INCORRECT ID or password, try again. I tried changing my passwords several times but it does not work for the macbook.

    You will have to provide the correct password to delete the existing account, if you have tried but are not getting the password reset email, contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password.

  • I am trying to configure my SCXI-1540 card for excitation voltage and frequency using MAX - but it is not giving me that option when I click on the card and then properties​, am I looking in the wrong place?

    I am trying to configure my SCXI-1540 w/1315 card for excitation voltage and frequency using MAX - but it is not giving me that option when I click on the card and then properties, am I looking in the wrong place?
    I have LabVIEW Express 7.0 Professional - SCXI-1000 Chassiss - along with SCXI-1112, and SCXI 1520/1314 - cable to the PCI-6052E is attached to the 1520 card.
    MAX says it recognizes all the cards in the chassiss.

    Jeremy, Thanks for the reply.
    I tried to set up the system as DAQmx.
    I had MAX auto-detect the set-up - and it recognized all the cards - but did not select the 1315 accessory on the 1540 card - I had to do that manually - but in the configuration section I would select the accessory and it would deselect itself. I had to get out of the set-up and then right click on the 1540 card and click on the "Accessories" tab and select the 1315 terminal block that way.
    It didn't seem right that the system should behave that way, but I pressed onward.
    I then tried to create a new DAQmx Task
    When I create new DAQmx task and then click on Analog Input no "Position" Tab appears for me to select, all I get are:
    Analog>>Voltage
    Analog>>Temperature
    Ana
    log>>Strain
    Analog>>Current
    Analog>>Resistance
    Analog>>Frequency
    Analog>>Custom Voltage with Excitation
    Do you think there might be something wrong with either my hardware or perhaps my configuration that is not allowing it to recognize the 1540/1315 in DAQmx?
    I had included the system report of what programs I am using, etc. as attached file nireport.txt
    After the DAQmx did not work I tried installing everything as Traditional DAQ and it did let me set-up the 1540 Card with Excitation Voltage and Frequency and gain - I then went in to the VI that I had built and tried to use the Express DAQ Assisant to read the channel that I am connected to on the 1315/1540 - when I try to use DAQ Assistant it gives me an error saying that "Device not available in NI-DAQmx. It is possible that the device is being use by traditional NI-DAQ"
    Which I guess it is since both configurations are now set-up in MAX.
    I would PREFER to use the DAQmx set-up, but I am confused as to WHY it won
    't come up with
    Analog input>>POSITION>>LVDT
    When I try to create a new DAQmx task.
    Thanks for the help so far! As you can probably tell I am new at this.

    Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

    Great howto Steve! This further increased my understanding of the MVC patterns used by BC4J.
    Some remarks:
    [*]Select New Business Components...
    This should be 'New Business Components Package', or you won't be able to add business components.
    ename as "Name",
    sal as "Salary"
    from emp
    where empno = ?That should be deptno.
    [*]Select the EditEmpsInDepartment view objectThat should be EmpsInDepartment.

  • I have no sound for games in my iPad. I have tried the reset but it does not work. The speakers work as I have sound for music and videos.

    I have no sound for games in my iPad. I have tried the reset but it does not work. The speakers work as I have sound for music and videos.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430 It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    iPhone: Can’t hear through the receiver or speakers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1630
    http://www.atreks.com/app-no-sound-on-ipad-4-%E2%80%93-what-to-do/
    To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
    1. Go to Settings
    2. Tap on General
    3. Tap on Reset
    4. Tap on Reset All Settings
    What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.

    Hi,

    The trial is always extended. The serial number you enter determines whether it runs as standard or extended.
    I'm getting through fine with that link, so it must be a browser issue or some such thing. Try another browser.
