Group Preferences mounting AFP, but not starting apps at login

I need a little help on this one please. Thanks in advance for any advice.
I have OD working. In Workgroup Manage I am trying to mount a shared volume and start 3 applications for a group of users. I have added all these under the Login preference for the group. When a user logs in, they get the share-point, but the apps do not start. I can add the apps to the computers (bound computers in WM) and the apps will start, but I was wanting to do this for a group of users, not a group of computers. Can someone help me figure out what I am doing wrong?
I also tried to add the share-point to the Dock preferences hoping to see the mounted volume in the Dock, but that is not working either. Is there a trick to do this?
Thanks again for any help.

OK, that was helpful. Thanks. The script is something I picked up somewhere:
tell application "Finder"
try
activate (mount volume "smb:<username>:<password>@//pele/peter")
on error
display dialog "There was an error mounting the Volume." & return & return & ¬
"The server may be unavailable at this time." & return & return & ¬
"Please inform the Network Administrator if the problem continues." buttons {"Okay"} default button 1
end try
end tell
The console log tells me:

Aha, It seems to have something to do with the Thursby package Dave whcich I once tried to install. The crash report contains:

Looks like DAVE replace mount_cifs. Now where to find the original? I'll guess I have to do some seaching on the install DVD.
Thanks so far.
Cheers,
Peter

  • ITunes opens but without any text showing.  Drop down menus have text but not the app itself. I have a Mac Powerbook Pro running Windows XP under Boot Camp.

    Running under Windows XP,  a few upgrades ago iTunes started opening without any text showing in the application.  Clicking on PLAY will play music but no text shows to indicate what's playing and no text to show music library. Drop down windows show text but not the app itself.
    Subsequent upgrades and reinstalls have not corrected the problem, When I run under iOS (Snow Leopard), iTunes opens with text and runs correctly.
    Help!

    Because I created FAT32 partition using Boot Camp tool few days ago I installed my custom copy of Windows XP with SP3, IE7 and WMP10 integrated using nLite (for WMP10 integration use RVM Integrator). I did not use Boot Camp tool this time - I just booted CD using Option key. Then I installed Boot Camp 2.0 drivers you can find on Mac Disk 1. After this I installed Boot Camp drivers 2.1 update. In Add or remove Programs I checked drivers - I uninstalled old drivers which call identical, but you can skip this. Everything works fine BTW it is better to format your partition to NTFS - you have much less disk errors, you do not waste time for disk errors scans during Windows startup, your data are much more safe. If you need NTFS write permissions use great tool Paragon NTFS for Mac OSX or open source NTFS driver.

  • IPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one but not all apps. I have more storage than the app takes. Can u help?

    iPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one of the apps, but not other apps.  I have more space available than needed for the app.  What do I need to do to fix this problem?  Do I need to completely reset this device as new and, if so, how should I do that? 

    You need to delete some item (apps, music, photos etc) from the iPod,.However, sometime files get corrupt. To determine that connect the iPod to your computer and click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes. How much storage is used by the "other" category. If over 1 1/2 GB that indicates corrupted files.
    To get the "other" down to normal value you need to restore your iPod usually restoring from backup works but sometimes restoring to factory settings.new iPod is required./

  • Itunes synchronises my music files, but not the apps.

    About a week ago I bought an Ipod touch. My computer recognises the Ipod and synchronises the music files on Itunes, but not the apps.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that didn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter the Wi-Fi password.
    If that doesn't help, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • View Object change ok in Jdev but not in Apps

    Hi All,
    I have changed some of the attributes in my page to point to columns in a
    different view object (Which I have amended) . Both of the view object are available to my AM.
    The changes work when run in Jdeveloper but not in APPS. I have reimported
    the page the changed fields are blank, do I also have to import the changed
    view object definitions XML into the MDS repository ?
    Thanks in advance

    You donot need to import ViewObject XMls to the MDs repository, they need to get in to the middle tier(JAVA_TOP). Are you talking about a table or a form layout ? Are you executing the query for the new ViewObject in processRequest, if not they will be blank.

  • Home sharing is working fine for musics and videos but not for apps. What is wrong?

    Home sharing is working fine for musics and videos but not for apps. What is wrong?

    i had the same issue as everyone here after upgrading to itunes 10.x.  vista could see xp home share.  ipod touch could see xp home share.
    neither could see vista home share.
    after several hours of authorizing de-authorizing, rebooting router etc, i knew it had to be a firewall thingy with vista as xp was working fine
    i went to this article http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2553 and followed the instructions.  itunes was already in my vista exception list.  on a hunch i deleted the itunes exception and followed the steps to add it again and boom it worked!! i could now see my vista machine from my ipod touch immediately.
    something must have screwed up the firewall exception on the upgrade to itunes 10.x
    it worked for me, i hope this helps others

    I understand there have been outages. I was unable to sign into iTunes but within the last 5 minutes I was able to sign in- but not download apps. Has anyone else seen improvements in regards to the outages?

    Yeah...in United States...everything is back up...but still a little creaky and slow.

  • I tried to update my ipod touch and now i lost everything. i have music backed up but not my apps. Anyone have suggestions?

    I tried to update my ipod touch and now I lost everything- music and apps. My music is backed up on an external drive, but not my apps. How can I restore my apps (some were purchased, some were free)?

    If you remember what they are, you can download them again (you will not be charged).
    You might wish to sync everything in the future.  It makes it a snap to recover when necessary.

  • I get but not the app. store in my doc. App. store is not installed, how do I do it for each other? I have my apple software update.

    Hello,
    I get but not the app. store in my dock.
    App. store is not installed, how do I do it for each other?
    I have my apple software update.
    App.store app but after my update is not in the dock and system.
    Kees.

    Hi Kees ...
    Your profile indicates you are running Leopard v10.5.8
    You need to upgrade to Snow Leopard V10.6 in order to use the App Store. This is an "upgrade", not an "update".
    Make sure your Mac meets Snow Leopard's requirements here.
    You must have the minimum of v10.6.6 installed in order to access the App Store.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard here > Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store

    Need a solution
    Thank you

    I have this same exact problem with my iMac. It just started happening this week I notice. If I power down the machine sometimes it hangs on shutdown which forces me to kill the power and when I power the machine back up all is fine for a while. If I try to launch any native Apple app llike Safari or Disk Utility all I receive is a bouncing icon in the dock. It never starts, so I have to kill it. If I use FireFox it start without a hitch. I am running 10.8.2, so something is worng here. I have not added any new software that I didn't already have.

  • Group Policy Client service does not start

    Hi,
    As soon as I (administrator on my PC) logon to Windows 7, I get a message saying that the Group Policy Client service failed to start. I'm not sure why I'm getting this error even though the dependencies are very much up and running..
    Below is the error message I get in the notification area as soon as I logon
    Failed to connect to a windows service
    Windows could not connect to the Group Policy Client service. This problem prevents stndard users from logging on to the system.
    As an administrative user, you can review the System Event Log for details about why the service didn't respond.

    I FOUND SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM!
    The crash of your computer caused that - you are absolutely right!
    I had this issue on my laptop since November, and it really bugged me.  I sifted through the event log and found the pattern of events that preceded the issue, and, probably, caused it.
    In short, the pattern is as follows: Windows updates run automatically as scheduled, and when reboot is initiated after the updates are finished, the computer crashes (probably during reboot sequence).  When it boots up, it reports that the last shutdown
    was unexpected, and the issue begins to occur.
    I spent 2 days trying to dig out a solution from the Internet, to no avail, until I came across
    this page.  It doesn't say anything about this particular problem, but it gives more information about SVCHOST process that starts many services, including Group Policy Client.  It looks like during reboot a vital registry settings were lost during
    crash and Group Policy Client "don't know" how to start.  Let me explain:
    There are two places to look in the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services this path should contain
    gpsvc key (a folder), which is responsible for service parameters and configuration.  I found that the key was intact, so, you do not touch anything here - just check that the key exists.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SVCHOST This is the most important path you should look into, as it must contain the keys and values referred in the key #1.  Below are descriptions what must be present
    there.
    There must be Multi-String value called GPSvcGroup. My laptop was missing it.  So, you should create multi-string value named
    GPSvcGroup and assign it value GPSvc.
    Next, you must create a key (a folder) and name it GPSvcGroup - this key normally should be there, but, again, it was missin on my laptop.
    Then open newly-created GPSvcGroup folder and create 2 DWORD values:
    First called AuthenticationCapabilities and you must give it a value of 0x00003020 (or 12320 in decimal)
    Second is called CoInitializeSecurityParam and it must have value of 1.
    Once you complete all steps above, reboot the computer and the problem will be fixed.
    Video walkthrough for those who are not very technical is here: http://youtu.be/4m5KEmckWK4
    I am so relieved I was able to fix it, and hope this will help others with the similar issue.
