How do I checkin/unlock files that I checked out under a different computer name?

My hard drive went bad. My IT department migrated me from windows 7 to windows 8 and also to a different user and computer name in a new domain. Now I cannot unlock files that were checked out on the old drive under the old domain user & computer.
I tried running Visual Studio 2013 under the old user name (using Run as other user), but appears that the files are inaccessibly locked on the old and no longer existing computer name.

Hi John,
Based on your description, your TFS and current client machine in different domains.
In this situation, you can contact your TFS administrator to make two-way trust between the two domains, then add the current user account as a team member of your team project. After that, you can ask team project collection Administrators to
unlock the file that your locked. Or ask the administrators to add your account to the group of "Project Collection Administrators". Then you can unlock the source files by yourseft after a workspace mapping on client machine. Check this
page for more information about lock and unlock files or folders.

How to read contents of files that do not fall under public security group?

Hi,
I need to read the contents of a WCM based xml file that does not fall under public security.
The process is like this:
First the user makes chnages to the content.
The workflow will be triggred based on the security group metadata that is associated with the content.
Once the content is finally approved our workflow calls a custom idoc script.
First we tried directly reading the xml contents from the idoc script which was still in the context of workflow. But since content item is still in workflow I was not able to read the changes. So I created a separate content publisher thread and read the DOC_INFO and checked for the dStatus value. If the value is RELEASED then I reading contents by calling ssIncludeXml idoc script.
This was working fine for public content. But now the requirement is that all content cannot be public. Content authors should not be able to edit the content that does not belong to their group, So we created security groups (and roles) and are associating that groups to the relavent content.
Beacuse of this change I am not not able to read the non public content. The call to DOC_INFO_BY_NAME service, which gives all the content files' metadata, is expecting the user to be logged in to give the details.
I tried calling the CHECKIN service with sysadmin and captured the cookies returned by that service and use cookies for the DOC_INFO_BY_NAME service call. But the service call was faling. It is throing the 401 forbidden error with the message that user needs to be logged in to get the details.
How to address this problem. Someone please help.
Note: I also tried using ridc for this. I was able to get it working but since it is executing in the context of server ridc api is changing server's environment properties like HTTP_HOST, HTTP_CGIPATHROOT etc. It also seemed like system was becoming non functional after using ridc. When I called check-in the system metadata values like security group are no more loading. Not sure if ridc is the culprit here but worried that it might be causing this issue.

Sorry, I posted too much details while posting this question. I was saying "not able to read *non* public content".
Anyway, I was able to resolve the issue. I was able to authenticate with sysadmin credentials in the request to service using basic authentication and was able to read doc info with that credential.
But I realized there is more than option for reading secure content.
- I could set user name as sysadmin in the m_environment (if I am in the context of a service) and the call the DOC_INFO_BY_NAME service.
- I can post an HTTP request to DOC_INFO_BY_NAME service with sysadmin credentials and do basic authorization via the connection. (This is what i have done successfully as of now )
- I could add guest role to all security groups with R (read) privileges.
I will look into all options and implement the one which is more apt.

NWDI Issue - Cannot checkout missing file that was checked out exclusively

Hello, I'm getting error when I try to edit a file (mdmapi_assembly.pp) on my project.

Anyone can help me?
Thanks anyway!

Hi Julio,
I think that some one created an activity on this specific componet and left it open. It looks like that activity never check-in. To make sure this please log on to Component Build Service>>Now select your build space and compartment>> now click on Pending activities.
See if there are any pending activites left? if there are , if you can, request basis to delete the open activity if it is not useful and nobody was using it. Sync the latest version and it shopuld allow to create a new activity. If there are no pending activites and you still see the same error then delete the project and configurations from the local NWDS. Reimport the configurations from the Development configurations perspective, and try create a project for the specific DC and try creating an activity,
Thanks

How can I see all files I have checked out?

Is it possible to automatically check-in everything I
currently have checked out with Dreamweaver? At work I have a very
large site with hundreds of files in a complex directory structure.
I probably have a dozen or so files currently checked out. Would be
nice to just check in everything so I know I'm not preventing my
co-workers from working on any files I accidentally left
checked-out. Thanks!

Give OmniDiskSweeper a try.

HT4796 How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users?

How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users? Having to log out just to sign in on a different user to access the files is absurd.
Do I make all the files sharable to all the NOW users on the mac then just delete the files? Or can i erase my account that I made when starting up my new mac and then just use the one with the transferred files?
I just dont want to have to og in and out of 2 different accounts .. Help please.
-Nina

Sorry. /Users is a folder path. It would be similar to C:\Users (if that exists on Windows).
So, in the Finder, select Computer from the Go menu.
You'll see Macintosh HD, double-click that to open it.
In there you'll see several folders. One is Users. That is where all the user Home folders exist. Select the other account's home folder and go to step 3.
If you have any more confusion, please stop and ask. We'll get there.
If you feel more comfortable, you can just log into that other account and move the files into /Users/Shared.
Then, log into the account you wish to use and copy the files from the Shared folder and paste them into your Home folder, wherever they belong, Documents, Music, Pictures, etc. That just takes a little more work. Transferring them into Shared, and then copying into your home sets the permissions on the files so that you won't have a problem accessing them later. The steps I provided just prevent you from having to do the double move, since you are not going to use the old account once you are done.
Quick unix shorthand. If someone gives you a file path that begins with a /, that means the root of the hard drive, ie Macintosh HD (if you haven't renamed it). The path separator in unix is /, not \.
A path that starts with ~/ means your Home folder, the one inside /Users named with your account name.

How can I remove a signature on a PDF file that I created using Preview on iMac computer??

How can I remove a signature on a PDF file that I created using Preview on iMac computer?? I inadvertently hit the icon on the Preview tool bar with an xS and a line through it. There is my signature in the middle of the PDF file I was editing. How do I get rid of it? Cannot select it. Cannot find any tools that allow me to delete it. The Preview documentation tells how to create and apply a signature, but not how to remove it. I think when a signature is added the doucment becomes locked from any editing.

Hey needadobehelp10,
Using Adobe Acrobat/Reader, you can simply change your PDF view settings under "View > Page Display > Single Page View"
Is this really you wish for?
Please let me know.

How do I import a file that is on the desktop to iMovie?

How do I import a file that is on the desktop to iMovie?
I had some 8 mm film put onto DVD by yesdvd and now want to import the 3 hours of video into iMovie to edit and create a short story.
I have created a dmg file on my desktop from the DVD but am at a loss as to what's next. There are a bunch of files on the dmg file, including one that says video, which has a bunch of files in it that are video. I assume I need to convert them to a format which iMovie likes. Which one should I use, and which program should I get to do it?
Once I have done that, where should I put the converted files and how do I work with them using iMovie?

You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
And from the TOU of these forums:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
If you are running Lion:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
SO...
When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
Many Thanks!

How to print a PDF file that was display in my page...

Hi !. My doubt would be the following one... I would like to know how to print a pdf file that was displayed in my page ?... I mean the PDF file not the page...
The PDF would be in this url:
http://iprodesa.lasegunda.com.ar:8090/datos/pdf/830.pdf
How could I implement this ?...

This first question which comes to mind is how do you display the pdf file in the browser?
For this the browser uses a plug in (e.g. adobe reader) which already has the ability to print the pdf file. Depending on the version of your plug in, printing is started differently.

Ps: which jdev version do you use?

How can I send a file that CAN NOT be printed or saved by the recipient?

How can I send a file that CAN NOT be printed or saved by the recipient?

Impossible. PDF files don't stream, so they cannot be opened until they've been saved.
You can truly prevent printing by using DRM, or ask nicely by using a permissions password (though that's ignored by non-Adobe software).

Try force-closing Mail: double-tap the home button, locate Mail in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, finish by tapping the home button. Then go the you email provider's webmail site (such as iCloud.com for @me.com mail), log into your account and delete any emails you find in your Drafts folder. Then open Mail again and see if it stopped trying to send.
