How to handle check-out files of users that are no longer with the company?

We have cases that files were checked out and modified, but the engineers left before they check-in the files. What's the right way to handle such cases? Does the project admin have right to check-in for the engineers? How can we make another person to
check the files in?

Hi Peter, 
Thanks for your post.
Do you want check-in that files within the changes which that left engineer created to TFS Server? If yes, you need logon that engineer’s client using his account, then get modified files on this client and perform check-in.
If you don’t need that changes which modified by that left engineer, just the check-out files on this client caused other users cannot work on that files, you can ask the team project admin user to perform
tf undo command on that files to resolve this checked-out issue. 
For example, the files be checked-out under workspace1, so execute this command “tf undo $/xx/xx(file path) 
/collection:collectionURL /workspace:workspace1 /recursive” to undo it

    cu is right.
    classloader returns the URL of your resource. You can the jar using something like the following...
    ClassLoader classloader = this.getClassLoader();
    url = classloader.getResource("your_resouces...");
    if(url == null)
    System.out.println("cannot find resource ");
    return null;
    String jar = url.getFile();
    jar = jar.substring(jar.indexOf("/")+1, jar.lastIndexOf("!")).replace('/', '\\');
    obviously, this code snippet works on windows only. Now you have the jar file path. I use Jar file classes to access the jar file. (e.g. you can search for each class files)

  • How do I delete emails in Mail App that are no longer on the server?

    HI,
    I have configured the Mail App on my brand new iPad to receive emails from my provider GMX.net. It is a POP3 account. The emails stay on the server until I fetch them with Outlook 2003 on my PC. After retrieving emails with Outlook they are deleted from the server. That is what I want. But the emails stay in the Mail App on my iPad. I also can’t delete emails with the iPad on the server.
    How can I do that?

    If you are accessing emails from multiple devices, you are better off using the IMAP protocol. Then the devices sync with the server and they are all looking at the same information. With POP, you are going to get your emails spread about, some on Outlook, some on the iPad. It could get very confusing.
    By default, the iPad will not delete from a POP server. Instructions for changing this are here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3228

  • SharePoint 2010, Visual Studio 2010, Packaging a solution - The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

    Hi,
    I have a solution that used to contain one SharePoint 2010 project. The project is named along the following lines:
    <Company>.<Product>.SharePoint - let's call it Project1 for future reference. It contains a number of features which have been named according
    to their purpose, some are reasonably long and the paths fairly deep. As far as I am concerned we are using sensible namespaces and these reflect our company policy of "doing things properly".
    I first encountered the following error message when packaging the aforementioned SharePoint project into a wsp:
    "The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters."
    I went through a great deal of pain in trying to rename the project, shorten feature names and namespaces etc... until I got it working. I then went about gradually
    renaming everything until eventually I had what I started with, and it all worked. So I was none the wiser...not ideal, but I needed to get on and had tight delivery timelines.
    Recently we wanted to add another SharePoint project so that we could move some of our core functinality out into a separate SharePoint solution - e.g. custom workflow
    error logging. So we created another project in Visual Studio called:
    <Company>.<Product>.SharePoint.<Subsystem> - let's call it Project2 for future reference
    And this is when the error has come back and bitten me! The scenario is now as follows:
    1. project1 packages and deploys successfully with long feature names and deep paths.
    2. project2 does not package and has no features in it at all. The project2 name is 13 characters longer than project1
    I am convinced this is a bug with Visual Studio and/or the Package MSBuild target. Why? Let me explain my findings so far:
    1. By doing the following I can get project2 to package
    In Visual Studio 2010 show all files of project2, delete the obj, bin, pkg, pkgobj folders.
    Clean the solution
    Shut down Visual Studio 2010
    Open Visual Studio 2010
    Rebuild the solution
    Package the project2
    et voila the package is generated!
    This demonstrates that the package error message is in fact inaccurate and that it can create the package, it just needs a little help, since Visual Studio seems to
    no longer be hanging onto something.
    Clearly this is fine for a small time project, but try doing this in an environment where we use Continuous Integration, Unit Testing and automatic deployment of SharePoint
    solutions on a Build Server using automated builds.
    2. I have created another project3 which has a ludicrously long name, this packages fine and also has no features contained within it.
    3. I have looked at the length of the path under the pkg folder for project1 and it is large in comparison to the one that is generated for project2, that is when it
    does successfully package using the method outlined in 1. above. This is strange since project1 packages and project2 does not.
    4. If I attempt to add project2 to my command line build using MSBuild then it fails to package and when I then open up Visual Studio and attempt to package project2
    from the Visual Studio UI then it fails with the path too long error message, until I go through the steps outlined in 1. above to get it to package.
    5. DebugView shows nothing useful during the build and packaging of the project.
    6. The error seems to occur in
    CreateSharePointProjectService target called at line 365 of
    Microsoft.VisualStudio.SharePoint.targetsCurrently I am at a loss to work out why this is happening? My next task is to delete
    project2 completely and recreate it and introduce it into my Visual Studio solution.
    Microsoft, can you confirm whether this is a known issue and whether others have encountered this issue? Is it resolved in a hotfix?
    Anybody else, can you confirm whether you have come up with a solution to this issue? When I mean a solution I mean one that does not mean that I have to rename my namespaces,
    project etc... and is actually workable in a meaningful Visual Studio solution.

    Hi
    Yes, I thought I had fixed this my moving my solution from the usual documents  to
    c:\v2010\projectsOverflow\DetailedProjectTimeline
    This builds ok, but when I come to package I get the lovely error:
    Error 2 The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters. C:\VS2010\ProjectsOverflow\DetailedProjectTimeline\VisualDetailedProjectTimelineWebPart\Features\Feature1\Feature1.feature VisualDetailedProjectTimeline
    Now, the error seems to be related to 
    Can anyone suggest what might be causing this. Probably some path in an XML file somewhere. Here is my prime suspect!
    <metaData>
    <type name="VisualDetailedProjectTimelineWebPart.VisualProjectTimelineWebPart.VisualProjectTimeline, $SharePoint.Project.AssemblyFullName$" />
    <importErrorMessage>$Resources:core,ImportErrorMessage;</importErrorMessage>
    </metaData>
    <data>
    <properties>
    <property name="Title" type="string">VisualProjectTimelineWebPart</property>
    <property name="Description" type="string">My Visual WebPart</property>
    </properties>
    </data>
    </webPart>
    </webParts>
    .... Unless I can solve this I will have to remove the project and recreate but with simple paths. Tho I will be none the wiser if I come across this again.

    Hi AltafB,
    For your situation, you can short the path for the source code. Or use a short path for build agent folder in your build definition. You can refer to the links below to solve your problem:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/aaronhallberg/archive/2007/06/20/team-build-and-260-character-paths.aspx
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/1638a5f0-9321-4ff9-9ee7-6d347badb972/please-some-solution-to-the-specified-path-file-name-or-both-are-too-long?forum=tfsbuild
    Besides, since you deploy Orchard to Azure, you can also publish it directly using publish profile in Visual Stduio or WebMatrix directly.

  • Get-ChildItem : The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

    Hi, Im trying to get the whole path in my server, so i tried that with this following code
    Get-ChildItem $sourceFolder  -Recurse | ?{$_.PsIsContainer} |Get-Acl
    But then, it showed me somtehing like this :
    Get-ChildItem : The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.
     I tried to find the solver everywhere and mostly they propose to change the path name, which is impossible, since I am working with my company server, and those folder have already there before i start to work here, then the other ask me to use robocopy,
    but all of the trick just dont work
    is there any way to solve this problem? thanks

    There is no simple solution to this. And it is not a limitation of powershell itself, but of the underlying NTFS file system.
    If the problem is that a folder with a name longer than 248 exists anywhere within your directory structure, you are hooped.
    If the problem is that some fully qualified path names exceed 260 characters, then, in those cases, the solution already given is to create a psdrive partway up the path from the drive letter or server/share root of the path. Unfortunately, the output produced
    will be relative to that psdrive and not to what is specified as the $sourcefolder.
    unless you already know where those problematic paths are, you might consider trying to trap those errors and have your script figure out where it needs to create psdrives. You might then be able to calculate the equivalent path for each file or folder and
    output that. the programming effort would be simpler to just created a psdrive for each folder encountered, however I expect that would be very inefficient.

  • How do I delete items from menu bar  that are not part of the OS

    How do I delete items from menu bar  that are not part of the OS

    Perhaps you could be more specific, as it is a little difficult to answer your question without any details.  I can give you some general ideas though.
    On my machine there are a few applications that have installed items into the menu bar - I'm assuming you are talking about the icons on the right hand side of the top bar. To remove those items, I would generally need to uninstall the program that created them. To do this varies a little from application to application.
    Also, sometimes an application will have preferences that allow you choose if you want to display the item in the menu bar.
    So, my general advice would be that you need to identify the application that placed the item there, and remove it from your computer.  If there is an uninstall program for that application, I would run that in the first instance.
    If you don't actually wish to uninstall the application, you may need to click on the item or run the application and see if there is a setting to not show the menu bar item.
    Hope that helps.

  • HT201317 How do I retrieve photos from my iCloud that are no longer on my iPhone after I have restored it?

    HOw do I retrieve my photos from my iCloud that are no longer on my phone after I have restored it?

    If you are seeing a cloud icon, they are not actually on your device, just available to download. If you wish to turn this off: Settings app >  Videos > Show All Videos [turn OFF]. This is also available in for the Music and iBooks apps.

  • How can I get my music files back when they are no longer on the computer?

    So the problem I am having is that I cannot play songs on the playlist because "the file cannot be located" error.  I checked the iTunes media folder and they weren't there. I searched my whole computer and they still could not be found.
    The story behind the problem is that I pretty sure all the songs I am having troubles with were ones I purchased on my iPod Touch itself. Several months ago when I plugged my iPod into the computer so it could sync ( my iPod is old and can't connect to the WiFi anymore forcing me to buy songs on my computer again.) The songs purchased on my iPod showed up on my playlist on my computer but they had the "!" next to them and they were no longer on my iPod and when I tried to get them back on I got the "cannot be located" error. I then checked the iTunes music folder again and the only songs there were songs I purchased on my computer.
    I am extremely frustrated. When I go to the iTunes store under "Purchases" they all show up however there is no way for me to download them again onto my computer because the "download" button cannot be clicked on because I am assuming it thinks the songs are already on the computer, but I know they aren't. I tried organizing my songs option and that didn't do anything.
    Is there any way to download them again? Or at least tell the iTunes store that they aren't located on my computer anymore so I can download them again?
    If I lost hundreds of dollars of music because the iTunes software is a piece a ****...

    You might want to post this question to the iTunes Windows forum rather than the iPod forum - try iTunes for Windows
    Just a note of encouragement - I doubt very much you've lost your music - they remember what you've purchased forever and as long as the content is still on the iTunes store you should never loose anything (however sometimes content is removed from the store for various reasons and in that cause if you don't have a local copy on your iTunes library it is not recoverable - but that issue is relatively infrequent) - it's just a question of why iTunes won't let you download it again. good luck...

  • How to fix grayed out songs in Itunes that are supposed to be matched with Itunes Match!

    I have deleted a few songs that have the cloud symbol in Itunes Match; however, they are now grayed out and I can't play them from the cloud or download them.  Can anyone offer any ideas?  I was doing this to test whether it is matching correctly and now the songs are listed with the cloud symbol and down arrow in Itunes; however, they are unable to be played (they are just gray).  Please help!

    iTunes has a feature that drops leading articles (a/an/the and regional equivalents) for sorting purposes. This enables "The Beatles" to be sorted under B instead of T, a converntion that most people are used to. The greyed out text shows this current autosort value. If you delete the text it will be regenerated. If you try to put in something like a space you will interfere with the proper action of the sort. However you can put "The Beatles" in if you really want them sorted under T. It is important to use sorting values consistently and not not try to give different things the same sort value as this causes problems. You can hide the column if you have no need to review the information in it.

  • The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

    I've followed
    this blog post, but it didn't work for me. I truly don't want to change my solution path as this is not acceptable. What else can I do?
    I can't believe we still have limits on path length.

    Note that the solution described in the blog post does not change your solution path. The _CSRUN_STATE_DIRECTORY environment variable sets the location of the temporary folders used by the compute emulator. Your solution does not need to move.
    Though, you may still have problems related to path length inside your solution. To resolve these, I have sometimes used symbolic links (using MKLINK /D link target) or substed drives (SUBST X: path) to create shorter paths and then opened the
    solution from there. If I recall correctly, with the first method, you need to be careful how you navigate to the solution in the Open Project dialog. I think that if you browsed to the path, it would still use the long path, so you need to paste the short
    path into the file name text box to go directly to the location of your .sln file. I may be misremembering the details though.
    BTW, I can't believe we still have limits on path length either.

  • How do I choose a list of users that are allowed to view my galleries?

    I created several names and passwords of people whom I want to allow to view my albums, but before publishing it, I can only choose 1 person at a time. How could I choose ALL the people in my list? Thanks, Rachel

    I guess it's how you understand the password settings - I use mine as "Group name" and "Password", so I have "Family", "Friends", "School" etc, each with passwords.
    So instead of giving two of your friends a name/password each, you can create access for both of them under one "group" name and a common password.
    The protecting mechanism is very simple, it doesn't seem to allow different people with different passwords to access the same albums.

  • How to import Sony EX1 files into FCS (that are already on HD in folders)

    let me try an explain, I have bought some footage, and the person that sold me the footage gave me the raw files. I was shot using a SONY EX1. I have one too, as well as a EX3. My difficulty is that I'm not able to import the files into FCS... when I import my own footage I read it from the SXS using XDCAM Transfer, but as the footage he sold me is already on my HD and in the raw form (in folders divided into files)...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I have been away on a shoot, but finally back, and still have not resolved the problem...I have try to do what you say, but XDCAM Transfer does not recognize the folders... it is strange...any other idea???
