How to create Portal/OID groups from AD OUs and keep them sync'd?

We are currently doing a simple one-to-one import sync mapping from Active Directory to OID for use by Portal.
In AD there are 40+ OUs with CN=username records, that we would like to have mapped to 40+ Portal groups with CN=username records as unique group members. We want to manage Portal privileges at the Portal group level rather than for each of 3,000+ individual users.
Each OU has it's own AD admin, so there is no way of knowing at what sub-level in the OU, an AD admin might create a CN=username record.
I had thought to manually create 40 new Portal groups, since the OUs seldom change. Now, I need to know how to create/map each of the OU=xxx, CN=username values as a unique member of the correct Portal group. During the sync, if an AD CN=username is added/modified/deleted from an existing OU=xxx, that same add/modify/delete needs to happen in the appropriate Portal group.
If somebody could assist me in "making it so", I would appreciate your time and help.

If you are already running the AD->OID synchronization, where do your OU's end up? It all depends on the mapping profile you (should have) set up.
Not sure where Portal stores the OID stuff, but you sjould be able to change the profile in such a way it ends up in the correct tree

    The only way you can do that is to import them into your library first, but you may have done that already.
    The easiest way to tell is to select a photo from the photostream album in iPhoto and ctrl-click on it, if it gives you the option to import it isn't in your iPhoto library, if it offers you the option to show in library it has already been imorted.

    How to remove the time slider from my project and keep only buttons to interact with my project .

    If I understand you correctly, go to the skin editor (Project, Skin Editor in Captivate 4), select the Playback Control tab, uncheck the Progressbar check box.  Leave checked the buttons for play/pause, rewind, forward, back, etc.
    I hope this helps.

  • How can i erase my .me mails from my iPhone and keep them in the server

    how can i erase my .me mails from my iPhone and keep them in the server

    You can't. The iPhone doesn't actually store all your emails anyway. It is showing you what is on the server directly.
    Only the most recently accessed emails are cached (stored temporarily) on your phone for access when you are offline. If you delete an email from your iPhone, you are actually deleting it from the server.

  • How do i import PSD's from my Computer and keep layers?

    How do i import PSD's from my Computer and keep the layers?
    I have tried using the creative cloud but it is pretty much a useless feature when it only imports PSD's as JPG, deleting all the layers.

    I believe that PSDs imported into PS Touch simply are flattened; they are not converted to JPG. I think this was done to protect the integrity of the app. (The number of layers available in PS Touch are much more limited due to the hardware. It's like 16 I believe vs. the theoretical thousands or so layers in Photoshop.) You can, of course, do the reverse (save as PSD in PS Touch and have the integrity of the layers preserved in Photoshop).

  • When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

    When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

    I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.

  • How do I set up pages for mac and ipad to share a document and keep them synced.

    How do I set up pages for mac and ipad to share a document and keep them synced.

    You can upload them from Mac to iCloud and then download on the iPad. They only directly sync between iOS devices. The Mac version of Pages has more options that are not available on iOS. If you use a font that is not available on iOS it will change the font. Some layout options aren't available either.

  • How do I remove cmyk profiles from a pdf. and keep it strictly 2 color process?

    My company is trying to outsource a booklet to an offset printing company. We are strictly digital printing, and I honestly have no experience with offset. In the past I would build the documents with the pantone colors that were needed in whatever software I was using to create it (Illustrator, Indesign), do my checks and fixes in Acrobat and send it to the printer, and it would get done. The current printer is having an issue with the files that I'm giving him. He says, that the files contain CMYK profiles, and has to strictly be 2 color process. The file is pointing to the correct spot colors, but it does still does contain the CMYK profiles, list I have no idea how to remove the CMYK profiles, I can convert them to RGB, but that doesnt help. How do I remove these profiles and make the PDF strictly use spot colors, or does this not make any sense, Honestly it doesn't to me.

    Honestly it does not to me either.
    You have a history of creating spot color files - but are using a new vendor...what I'm hearing from the vendor doesn't make sense
    ...do my checks and fixes in Acrobat and send it to the printer, ...
    Have you checked the PDF - verified that your Spot colors are Spots, not cmyk builds?
    The current printer is having an issue with the files that I'm giving him. He says, that the files contain CMYK profiles, and has to strictly be 2 color process.
    Communicate very clearly  - cmyk profiles or cmyk elements?
    To my limited knowledge, every file will have a profile - it's a moot element in spot color printing -

  • I'm syncing pics in LR between my iPad and Mac.  Later, how can I remove the pictures from my iPad and keep it on my LR on my Mac?

    I understand the pictures are kept in the Cloud but I want to change my catalog so that it will recognize the pictures only on my Mac.  Then I can clear up space on my iPad. 

    Even though iCloud can back up some content it is intended more to keep multiple iOS devices synced up rather than being a place to back up your content. The Camera Roll is included in the iPad's Backup however there is no way to access the back up's content without Restoring the iPad. If you wipe the photos from the iPad's Photo Roll the new back up file created will also have them removed.
    Photo Stream, also a part of iCloud, is also intended to make your latest photos accessible on your other iOS devices such as iPhones, Apple TVs and Mac computers. It will only hold 1000 of the latest photos and is supposed to delete them after 30 days. This can give you the opportunity to view photos for awhile, back the photos up in a more conventional manner on your computer and share them with others. It is not a back up and is more of a temparary place to view them. Photos should be transferred to a computer which also has  a good back up routine to external sources.
    Even though iCloud can hold your iPad Backup file, the back up file does not contain most media files. The iOS backup file is more for quickly getting your devics settings restored if you have an issue with it or want to set up a new device. Your media files must also live else where in a more permanent back up such as on a computer and an external USB drive. For most actions, iCloud pretty much mirrors your iOS devices, delete something from one device it is gone from them all including iCloud.
    If you want to remove photos then store and view them from an online source use services such as DropBox or other online photo services such as Flickr.

  • How to create an email group from fellow email recipients

    I'm sorry for asking what has to be a very basic question but I've not been able to find the answer here or anywhere.
    Basically, I want to cut/paste 40-50 email addresses from an email that was sent to me into my address book as a separate Group.  ..These are email addresses for players on a sports team.  ..I don't know their full names, companies, ph. numbers etc... and don't care to keep that info on hand.. Nor do I want to spend the time adding each as a separate contact.  I just need to keep their email addresses.  ..I may add addresses to this from time to time, or remove, etc..   For now, whenever I want to send an email to this group, I have to dig up the email sent to me that contained all the addresses as addidional recipients.
    Thanks for reading/ replying!

    Hi Everyone, I was told that with Dreamweaver it is possible to copy another websites templates? What are the steps in copying another websites template with Dreamweaver?
    This is difficult to understand.   How are you copying templates from another site?
    If you have all the files that make up the template, then it's only a matter of saving all the files to a folder on your hard drive and setting up a site definition pointing to this folder.  You then work on the files as usual.

    Without seeing the page it's difficult to judge what your problem is.  If possible, please upload the files to a remote server and provide a link to the page. It's the only way people can help - if they see your page in action.
