How do I prevent a user from having the rights to approve a document in approval workflow?

I have a document library with the SharePoint 2010 approval workflow assigned. Documents must be approved before a major version is checked in.
The checkbox "Start this workflow to approve publishing a major version of an item." is checked for the workflow.
I want any user to be able to create a document and submit for approval but I only want a subset of people to have permission to approve the documents submitted for approval
How do I only allow certain users be able to be selected to approve a document?

Deleted other posts because pictures did not upload.
I have done exactly as has been indicated, yet User1 can still assign User2 as the approver and User2 can approve the check-in when the "Open this task" button is clicked in the approval
email in Outlook and the approve button is click in the displayed dialog.

How do you prevent a user from using the playback bar to skip questions?

Hi,
I am fairly new to Captivate and I had a question regarding the quiz feature in Cap4. I have some users testing the module for me and they are able to skip questions. I have done the following: 1. Made the quiz required 2. removed the review buttons.
Is there something I am doing wrong?
Shal

Hello,
You could hide the playbar, since it is not really needed for Question slides: on entering the first question slide you assign the value 0 to the system variable cpCmndShowPlaybar, and when you want to show it again, assign the value 1.

How can I prevent my family from having the ability to erase my devices when using Family Sharing?

When using Family Sharing, it appears that all family members have the ability to lock and erase all devices that are linked to the family account. This does not seem very secure. For example, I wouldn't want my disgruntled family member to arbitrarily lock or erase devices, remotely.

If you're using iTunes Match you might want to post this question over in the iTunes match forum:https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes/itunes_match. They may be able to help you over there.

How to prevent multiple users from updating the same data in coherence

Hi,
I have a Java Web Application and for data cache am using coherence 3.5. The same data maybe shared by multiple users which maybe in hundreds. Now how do I prevent multiple users from updating the same data in coherence i.e. is there something in coherence that will only allow one user a time to update. If one user is in a process of updating a data in coherence and some other user also tries to update then the second user should get an error.
Thanks

I have a question on the same line. How can I restrict someone from updating a cache value when I a process is already working on it. I tried locking the cache key but it does not stop other process to update it , it only does not allow other process to get lock on it.

How can we prevent a user from entering a value in Parameter Field?

how can we prevent a user from entering a value in Parameter Field and Select-options Field?

make it invisible, make it inactive, make it display only.
if the field is not there or not to be seen the user WILL have problems inputting data.
BUT once the field is there you can NOT prevent that the user fills it with data.
all you can do is on PAI check if the data the user inputted was good or bad, and clear his inputs, but you can NOT prevent him inputting something.

Prevent a user from changing the Project ID in P6 EPPM 8.3.7

Does anyone know if there is a Global or Project Security Profile privilege that will prevent a user from changing the Project ID on an existing Project? We are using Primavera P6 EPPM 8.3.7
Thank you,
Eric

Hi,
Below project security profile may help you,
Edit Project Details Except Costs/Financials
Determines whether the profile will enable users to edit fields in General, Dates, Defaults, Resources, and Settings tabs in Project Details. To assign a project baselines, users must also have the "Assign Project Baselines" project privilege assigned to their profile.

I have checked around the internet, but still can't find any answers. How can I prevent incoming mail from interrupting the music I am listening to on my iPhone? That 1-second muting function drives me insane, especially when a lot of mail is coming in.

If you want to hear your music on iPhone without interruption, switch Settings > Airplane Mode: ON.

Is there a way to prevent a user from using the graph cursor legend to delete a cursor?

I would like to have 2 cursors on a graph that can't be deleted by the user.

Hi Dennis,
I'm having this problem as well, and found your post. Are you referring to the Enabled State of the entire graph? If so, this prevents the user from moving the cursor at all while the VI is running, which, of course, defeats the purpose of having a cursor at all. Ideally, I would like to show the cursor palette and disable it's run-time shortcut menu. This doesn't appear to be possible. One workaround would be to hide the palle and instead include some indicators that show the cursors' values. I'd prefer to show the palette to keep the program simpler.
Any other solutions?
Thanks,
Alan

I need to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the application pages

Hi^^,
I have created an application in jsp and servlets. It has several pages like manager, supervisor accountant. I need to prevent unauthorised users from accessing these pages. In other words I need to implement a filter. Anyone who types a url other than that of the login page needs to be blocked. However I am not able to conceptualize the code that is going to be inside the doFilter() method. Please help
Sincerely,
Prashant

Hi^^,
I admit that there were some mistakes in the previous posting. I have corrected the mistakes and now there is going to be no compile time error. However when i put in the login id and the password it is redirecting me to the login page. I think that the front end jsp is directing the control to the controller servlet. But as "YOU" have pointed out in your previous post,
"by default requestDispatcher.forward(...) does not pass through the filter change. If the user requests the login page from their browser however, then they will still get the error message, which may not be appropriate."
I feel we need to somehow make the code pass through the requestDispatcher.forward(...) method of the servlet.
I am again posting the corrected code.
package com;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class SecurityFilter implements Filter
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws   ServletException, IOException
HttpServletRequest req = (HttpServletRequest)request;
HttpServletResponse res = (HttpServletResponse)response;
String X = req.getRequestURI();
if(X.equals(http://localhost:8080/MyProject/LoginPage.jsp))
     //writing code for passing through the filter
     final class MyGenericFilter implements javax.servlet.Filter
      public FilterConfig filterConfig;
      public void doFilter( final ServletRequest request, final ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws java.io.IOExeption, javax.servlet.ServletException
      chain.doFilter(request,response);
      public void init(final FilterConfig filterConfig)
      this.filterConfig = filterConfig;
      public void destroy()
else
   HttpSession session = req.getSession();
   String username = (String)session.getAttribute("username");
   if(null==username)
     request.setAttribute("Error","Session has ended. Please login");
     RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("Login.jsp");
     rd.forward(request,response);
     chain.doFilter(request,response);
    else
     RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("X");
     rd.forward(request,response);
public void init(final FilterConfig filterConfig)throws ServletException
      public void destroy()

How do I prevent a user from opening multiple instances on the same computer?

On the site oldnavyweekly.com there is a .swf that prevents users from opening multiple instances of the site at the same time on the same computer. If you open the site, and try to open it a second time in another window, it won't load. You can't open the site again until the first window is closed. How did they implement this?
From my analysis it is NOT:
1. Cookies - The block still takes place if you try opening it in IE and also try opening it in Firefox simultaneously.
2. Flash Cookies - The block still takes place if I disable flash cookies.
3. IP Based Block - You are not blocked if you open the site on two separate computers with the same outbound IP address. From my analysis, their server does not assist in the block at all.
It seems as if their .swf is creating some kind of global system-wide object that can be detected in other instances of the application on the same machine. How did they implement this?
Thanks!

you're welcome.
actually, unless you take an extra step, the first opened swf will close. if you want the 2nd to close, the initial receiving lc will send a message to sender that causes the sender to close.

Can I prevent a user from Deleting the Group Policy deployed power plan?

I have Power Manager version 3.20 installed and am using the Group Policy template to deploy a customized power plan. I do not want my users to have the ability to delete this custom plan, but I cannot find the option in the Group Policy to change the setting that would grey-out the Delete button in Power Manager.
I have located the registry value that changes the function of Power Manager, it is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Lenovo\PWRMGRV\PowerSchemes\42617646-BC99-48E2-B3AF-C562C25F4098\ProhibitModification. If the value is 0, then the delete button is available. If the value is 5, then the delete button is greyed-out.
The problems is that the Power Plan ID number (the 42617646-BC99... part in the reg key above) changes from computer to computer. That ID string seems to be tied somehow to the specific computer. So, I cannot just create a Group Policy Preference to change that value in the registry, because that value is always going to have a different name.
The computers are all ThinkPad T400 model and are running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit.
Can anyone suggest a different method to change this setting? If not, is there any chance that the Power Manager application can be upgraded to include this control?
Thank you!

welcome to the forum!
to add to what gan said, page 6 of the power manager deployment guide covers this policy over active directory.

How do I prevent mp3 songs from having their tail-ends cut off in the slideshow-creator?

I don't have this problem with wma files. When I play any of these mp3 music files in Windows Media Player, I get the whole thing. So I'm guessing Photoshop Elements 7 has trouble playing nicely with mp3. I have a favorite-movies slideshow with movie themes in the background. All the files are mp3. And each piece of music has the last 4 or 5 seconds cut off. Please help. Thanks.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

Is there a way to prevent AD users from accessing the VPN?

I have ASA 5510's that authenticate users to the Active Directory. Is there a way to prevent users, that even though they are validated through the AD from being to establish a VPN connection?

Haven't tested this lately, but with the ipsec client, you used to be able to go to an AD user's "dial-in" tab, and there was a check box there for "allow remote access" or something that. If this was checked, they could authenticate via IAS, if not, they couldn't. This allowed only selected users within AD to use the VPN. Not sure if this is still the case, but it's a start...

How can I prevent my tabs from loading the Tuvaro search page?

I have tried everything listed in the popular articles for this. Firefox shows my home page when I open it (yay!) but new tabs - tabs specifically - still default to the Tuvaro search engine. I have gone into "about:config" and reset the "browser.newtab.url" setting, and it works! But when I close Firefox and open it back up again, the string has been replaced on "Browser.newtab.url" and my tabs default to Tuvaro again. As stated previously, I've uninstalled ALL bloatware from my (brand new) computer, fixed the shortcuts, cleaned my registry, and reset firefox. This one detail just refuses to be fixed.
Thank you!

Hello SkyeVeran, check if exist inside the "Programs" in windows, go from Start button > Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a program or Program and Features > find it and uninstall, also uninstall any other unwanted suspicious program.
also, check if exist in your extensions, click the 3-bar menu button > Add-ons > Extensions or Appearance > select if exist as an add-on > click Remove button.
after the above, Reset Firefox
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
#At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]]. Click on it.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Thank you.

How can I prevent my iPhone4 from opening the 'next' e-mail when I delete an e-mail?

Subject says it all. When viewing an e-mail, I delete it. Rather than just going back to the list of e-mails, my iPhone opens up another unread e-mail (seems to sometimes open a newer one, and sometimes an older one). I don't want it to do that.

You can't change this. http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
