How to activate BitLocker in Windows 8?

Hello guys. When you try to activate BitLocker on your Windows 8 PC you'll possibly see a message like this
"You must enable "require additional authentication at startup" feature to use BitLocker feature in systems which has no TPM support"
or whatever it is...
Here is the path to solve this problem.
1. Press "Windows+R" at the same time on your keyboard to start the Run command line.
2. Type "gpedit.msc" and click OK.
3. A new window will be opened.
4. Click on Administrative Templates under Computer Configuration
5. Double Click on Windows Components in the right window.
6. Double Click on BitLocker Drive Encryption.
7. Double Click on Operating System Drives.
8. Double Click on Require Additional Authentication at Startup
9. A new window will be opened.
10. Click "Enabled"
11. Click OK and close the window.
Now you are ready to use BitLocker for your drives.
12. Right Click on C or any drive in Computer folder.
13. Choose Turn On BitLocker
14. Follow the Steps.
Result: You dont have to worry about your data anymore because they cannot be seen by anyone though you share them with all the world!

From Microsoft:
"BitLocker Drive Encryption is only available in Windows 8 Pro and Windows 8 Enterprise editions."

Hello everybody
Unfortunately I still couldn't find helpful answers. Isn't there a way to activate those generic object services in VA02, VA03 e.g. like it is available out of the box in MM02, MM03, FB02, FB03, etc.?
We would like to link a sales order (business object type BUS2032) with an URL pointing to a PDF-Document.
Thanks in advance for any help on this one.

How to activate Windows 8.1 on a Windows 2008 R2 KMS server when I don't have Windows 2012 R2 kms host key

I only have windows 8.1 kms host key but I can't add a client OS kms key to Windows 2008 R2 kms server. And I don't have Windows 2012 R2 license either. Is there any way I can activate Windows 8.1 using my existing kms server? Thanks.

I would like a yes no clarification answer. So does this mean that EVEN WITH THE PATCH. My Server 2012 Standard edition that currently hosts KMS VA for clients running Win7, Win 8, Office15, Server 2008, Server 2012. Will not be able to host windows 8.1?
I will have to install 8.1 and use as a host?
if you have a KMShost product key for WS2012R2, you can patch a down=level Server and be fine.
(the OP didn't renew SA or otherwise has no KMShost pkey for WS2012R2)

I'm having similar issues and have a similar question that doesn't seem to be answered:
My KMS server is Windows 2008 R2 (Also is my domain controller). I want to activate Windows 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 machines off this KMS server. I can install the 2012 R2 key just fine but receive error 0xC004F015 (The Software Licensing Service reported
that the license is not installed) when I try to install my 8.1 KMS key.
What I'm gathering from this thread is that I have to set up a Windows 8.1 host and set it up to be a KMS server exclusively for activating Windows 8.1. Is this correct? If so, Microsoft needs to fix that. I have a SERVER for activations for a reason: it
is a server, not a client. If I am mis-understanding, how do I get my Windows 2008 R2 server to accept the Windows 8.1 KMS key for activating 8.1 clients?
Thanks!
You don't need Windows 8.1 KMS key. Your 2012 R2 KMS key will be able to activate your Windows 8.1 machines. So your current set up is fine, no need to set up another Windows 8.1 KMS host.
My problem is I don't have 2012 R2 KMS key as I didn't buy any Windows 2012 R2 license. So I can't use 2012 R2 KMS key to activate my Windows 8.1.
Oh that's interesting. I guess I need to play around more because my 8.1 test machine isn't activating. I'll start a new thread for that if needed. Sorry for the confusion.

Hey Juergen119,
I would recommend syncing your photos from your computer to your iPad by using iTunes:
iTunes: Syncing photos
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
First, if you want to set it up to work via iCloud, I would check and make sure My Photo Stream is set up correctly on your devices:
To use My Photo Stream you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
Apple TV (2nd generation) with Apple TV Software Update 5.0 or later
PC with Windows 7 or later and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
For complete iCloud setup instructions, visit How to set up iCloud.
Then, once it is set up, you can upload your photos to My Photo Stream by following these directions:
PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and under Favorites select iCloud Photos if you are using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 (or Photo Stream if you are using 2.0 to 2.1.2). Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.

How to activate link to cFolder/cproject in microsoft windows explorer

Dear Expert,
Could you please tell me how to activate cFolder/cProject link with Microsoft File Explorer like EasyDMS?
Thanks in advance..
Bhuwan Tiwari

The high level steps are as follows. Please let me know if you need more details.
1. Transaction SICF- Activate service /default_host/cpro
2. Define external alias referring to /default_host/cpro (/cpr_webdav for example) and make sure the correct client and target element ( /default_host/cpro) is selected
3. Set the URL under the IMG Make settings for the WebDAV interface. The last part of the URL will be the external alias that you defined.
4. Login to cFolders and navigate to any collaboration. Under "Additional Functions" button you can obtain the WebDAV URL
I could not get this to work by simply mapping a network drive. However it works fine if you install the Netweaver portal drive client which will map the network drive for you.
Hope this helps

How to activate the ATP buckets in APO?

Hi,
We are in the process of changing the ATP buckets in our APO system.
I know the Path in the configuration:
Advanced Planning and Optimization -> Global Available-to-Promise (Global ATP) -> General Settings -> Maintain Global Settings for Availability Check
On the left side you will get three sections:
Global Settings
ATP Buckets (Active)
ATP Buckets (Planned)
I can change the values in (example field Shift Receipt Bucket) the ATP Buckets (Planned) section and save it with a transport. Now the question is how to activate the buckets. Is there another transaction for this? SAP Help doesn't specify how to activate.
Any ideas are highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mahesh

Hi,
To activate the buckets one need to check the box 'Current' in the options under ATP Buckets (Active). Also, as referred earlier by Dipthi do look up the documentation under:
SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (SAP APO) -> Global Available-to-Promise (Global ATP) -> Settings for Global ATP -> General Settings for Global ATP ->Definition of Buckets for ATP Time Series ->Activation of Bucket Parameters for ATP Time Series.
The details are as beneath:
Use
If you change bucket parameters (see Definition of Buckets for ATP Time Series), these must be activated subsequently for the ATP time series.
Features
The system activates the bucket parameters in the following situations:
Since activation in each of the situations described below leads to downtime, you should change bucket parameters less frequently than other Customizing settings.
·        Creating the active planning version for a client using transaction /SAPAPO/MVM
If you set up a system again, you should process the bucket parameters before you create the active planning version. The bucket parameters are thus activated automatically.
·        Initializing SAP liveCache for all clients using transaction LC10
In the case of an upgrade, you should process the bucket parameters before activating SAP liveCache. The bucket parameters are then activated automatically.
·        Executing the report /SAPAPO/OM_ATP_REBUILD_TS
The system only rebuilds the ATP time series here.
In this case, the SAP liveCache administrator must execute the following steps:
                            a.      Shut down SAP liveCache.
                            b.      Replace the com-file registration:
                                                  i.       At command line level, go to the SAP subdirectory of the SAP liveCache installation.
                                                ii.       Under Microsoft Windows, save the original registration files SAPAPO.lst and SAPATP.lst (UNIX: libSAPAPO.lst and libSAPATP.lst), for example, by renaming or copying to another directory.
                                               iii.       Under Microsoft Windows, rename the registration file SAPAPO_REBUILD.lst as SAPAPO.lst (UNIX: libSAPAPO_REBUILD.lstas libSAPAPO.lst) or copy it to another directory.
                                               iv.       Under Microsoft Windows, rename the registration file SAPATP_REBUILD.lst as SAPATP.lst (UNIX: libSAPATP_REBUILD.lstas libSAPATP.lst) or copy it to another directory.
                            c.      Launch SAP liveCache.
                            d.      Execute the report /SAPAPO/OM_ATP_REBUILD_TS.
                            e.      Shut down SAP liveCache.
                              f.      Replace the com-file registration by replacing the registration files SAPAPO.lst and SAPATP.lst (UNIX: libSAPAPO.lst and libSAPATP.lst) with the original versions under Microsoft Windows.
                            g.      Launch SAP liveCache.

You can also open the file menu via Alt+F to have a close Window item appear. This item wouldn't appear if the menu bar is visible and you would click File. This is one of the items that only show if you activate the menu bar via the keyboard.

How to activate video calling from account page?

On a new computer Windows 8.1 can sign into my Skype for Desktop Account using skype name and password. Also have same email address as before. Account page comes up but dont know how to activate Skype so I can video call. Tried to instal Skype & got as far as Save Skype to File box, clicked on this, then was expecting to see Run Installer but nothing happened. Was previously using Windows XP. Have the original Skype download filed. Plus several more where I have been attempting to resolve this problem. Am all ´skyped up´ but cannot use it !!
Absolutely desperate have been trying to remedy this for ages. can anyone help please. Thanks Deborah
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well, if it hasn't successfully installed yet, then you won't be able to uninstall it. So with that in mind, if you are able to uninstall it then that would explain why you can't install it again. The program won't let you install it if it's already been installed. So if you'd like to try again you can uninstall it and reinstall from one of the files you downloaded.
So, the first step would be to see if it is currently installed. To do this, right click the Start button in the bottom right corner while in Windows desktop. You will see a context menu pop up. From there, choose Control Panel, and within Control Panel choose Uninstall a program. You will see a list of currently installed programs.
If you see Skype in the list, uninstall it. If you don't, then don't worry about it - it's not installed. Now try to install it again.
With regard to User Account Control, don't worry about that at all. It is safe to click Yes, and once you do that should initiate the installation process. User Account Control (UAC) is a warning that something want approval from a computer administrator, which gives it access to parts of the computer it would not have otherwise. You probably don't want to give administrator access to programs you do not trust, but Skype is made by Microsoft so there is nothing to worry about.
Let me know if this helps you, or if you have any more questions. Good luck!
P.S. You said the Skype installation file came from your XP computer - that may be a problem in itself. When you download Skype from the website there is a pretty good chance that it checks the version of your operating system before downloading, meaning that if you downloaded it on a Windows XP computer you may have downloaded a Windows XP version that will not work on Windows 8.1. So, if you are using a file you downloaded from that computer, just download it again from the new one. You can use the link I put in the first post.

Turning on Bitlocker in Windows 7 Beta

Is it possible to turn on Bitlocker for Windows 7 Beta for disk encryption when installed in Boot Camp?

Hi,
1&2;
We could follow the procedure talked in the below article to enable bitlocker through group policy:
Cannot Save Recovery Information for Bitlocker in Windows 7
Bitlocker is not available in Windows 7 professional, only available in Ultimate and Enterprise, and yes we could do bitlocker in Windows server 2008 R2 environment on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. There are some new changes made in Windows 8 / Windows 8.1,
if we want to configure new policies, then we should consider to use Windows Server 2012/2012 R2, See:
What's New in BitLocker for Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012
What's New in BitLocker for Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2
3.
For MBAM and its advantages, we may take a look at the following article:
Microsoft BitLocker Administration and Monitoring (MBAM)
4.
We could enable BitLocker without TPM: Allow BitLocker Without A Compatible TPM
5&6.
We could manage TPM using
tpm.msc
If we have policies configured well, then the client side is not able to make changes to the settings.
7.
We might take a look at the following article:
How to backup recovery information in AD after BitLocker is turned ON in Windows 7
8.
For MBAM stuff, see:

How to activate Bluetooth

Hy.
I have HP Pavilion g4 1357-TX, with Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 32 bit, Intel Core i3-2330M and 2GB memory.
To the point, how to activate Bluetooth in this notebook ?
Maybe it sounds silly or stupid to you, but I reall have no idea about this.
Need your help.
Thanks !!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Consumer models generally use HP Wireless Assistant, but I was not able to find this exact model on the consumer support site for some reason.
As a result, I found the HP Connection Manager on the business support center. It essentially accomplishes the same tasks as HP Wireless Assistant in the consumer models. Install it using the link below.
http://goo.gl/9hx5e
It is strange the F12 key is not enabling and disabling wifi and bluetooth simultaneously. My consumer model notebook's F12 key turns my wifi and Bluetooth off and on. Apparently the same design decisions are not used across all consumer notebooks.
