Desktop Manager 5.0 and Roxio Media Manager hangup

Ok, I spent an hour researching posts on the forum, and not gettting anywhere.
Here is the specifics:
New Laptop with Windows XP-SP3
New Install of BB Desktop Manager 500_B28_Multilanguage
I use Sync to update my address book via Ascii one way.
Did that once. No Problem
Restarted my Laptop. Now I get Windows Installer looking for Roxio Media Manager.msi and now I can't get rid of it.
I hit cancel, and it comes back.
Only thing in Add/Remove programs is Desktop Manager 5.0 and Blackberry Media Sync
Try to remove either one and I get that "Installation in progress" message.
If there is a problem with 5.0 why is a newer version correcting it not out?
Several posts refer to doing a "Clean Uninstall" (KB02206) of Blackberry Desktop Software, Several posts refer to (KB19218) Windows Installer Cleanup.
Before I get started, Is there a real solution? If I do the Clean Uninstall and then again install 500_B28 am I going to hang everytime I start the computer while Installer looks for Roxio?
Would someone please help me.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Twas obivous that I was going to get NO HELP from RIM, so I called my IT Dept.
Here is what I did so far.
Open Task Manager.
In Applications, right click on RMM install process.
Left click on Go to Process.
This step puts you on ISUSPM.exe
Left Click on End Process.
Click OK.
Go back to Task Manager, select Processes
find misexec.exe
Left Click on End Process.
Click OK.
Go to Add / Remove programs
Uninstall Blackberry Desktop Manager
Uninstall using REMOVE all User settings
after 15 minutes, it finally removed RMM also
I ran Windows Install Cleanup Utility (290301)
verified no Roxio programs or BB programs were on the computer
and restarted.
So Far, So Good.
Now I have to decide if I want to put BBDM on with or WITHOUT the MM.

How to trap F1 (help) when "Tools - Options" is active

Hi there. I already posted this question previously with no appropriate response. I wouldn't normally post it again but I'm justifiably losing my patience. I can find no way to trap F1 (help) when someone activates my program's options via "Tools
-> Options". This is supported in add-ins via "EnvDTE.IDTToolsOptionsPage.OnHelp()" but after spending countless hours hunting for how to do this in a VSPackage (spinning my wheels for days now), I have yet to find an answer. Would someone
from MSFT care to enlighten me on how to pull this off. I simply need to intercept F1 so I can launch a ".chm" file when my options are showing under "Tools -> Options". Thank you.
Larry (25+ years on MSFT platforms, mostly in C/C++)

Hi Ed,
Thanks very much for your response. I'll look into this and hopefully there's something that can be done. Am anxiously looking forward to your own results as well. I have looked into other possibilities however, like overriding "DialogPage.OnActivate()"
and trying to set the focus to my options page, where I then have control (so trapping F1 would be easy). This isn't doable either though based on my testing. Changing the bindings to intercept "Help.F1Help" is also fraught with problems. Both these
ideas are hacks though, as would be trying to get underneath Visual Studio to trap F1 before it even gets control. Integrating my help into MSHelp isn't something I want to do either, not just because of the work involved, but because of the nature of my app.
My ".chm" file contains the help for my add-in (now VSPackage) as well as a standalone ".exe" that goes with it (which is run independently of VS). A single ".chm" file therefore serves both programs so two help systems isn't
viable. Note that even though add-ins will soon be obsolete, I honestly find it bewildering that MSFT would force developers to use their help system given that add-ins supported "EnvDTE.IDTToolsOptionsPage.OnHelp()". There should be an analogue
for this in a VSPackage since it's so basic. There's enough work involved having to convert an add-in to a VSPackage while still supporting older versions of VS (many programmers now have to deal with both depending on the version), but the fact that a VSPackage
doesn't even seem to support everything an add-in did (F1 in this case), means that MSFT has created difficult and expensive problems for many developers. This isn't directed at you of course (your help is certainly welcome and greatly appreciated), but I'm
at a loss to understand the business rationale for this. It may be easier for MSFT to deal with one system only now (VSPackages instead of add-ins), but it hurts many of its existing customers who have to deal with the fallout of this decision And honestly,
I see no immediate advantage to VSPackages over add-ins. Like so many other technologies before it, it's just a different way to do the same thing (both have their pros and cons). I'm not here to rant though, but it's just the frustration of having to spend
weeks on this one issue alone, in addition to all the other work required to convert an add-in to a VSPackage. I've had a stable, working add-in for years now and am being forced to convert it to a VSPackage with all the ensuing problems (time, expense, need
to support both technologies now, add-ins and VSPackages, as well as unknown future problems, etc). At the end of the day though, my customers will see no difference in the program. So what was the point of going through this exercise. I (and many others no
doubt) are going through this grief only because MSFT has given us no choice.

How to transmit color proofs and other settings without activation?

Hallo!
I crashed my computer weeks ago and installed PS CS2 at a new system with a new activation (earlier activations have been made because of hard disc changes)
The activation was ok but when I tried to load my color proofs made at the first computer I was asked to make a new activation.
Is there any possibility to use the proofs without a next activation? (I´m not sure if I have a new one left)
Please help
Anna

Anna,
Your situation would be a good one to call Adobe Tech Support (installation issues are free). They can tell you how many activations you have, and help you get up and running.

Oracle 11g : Directory and UTL_FILE - ORA-29280: invalid directory path

Hi,
I have Oracle 11g server on a UNIX box and im accessing it through an Oracle client on a windows box.
Im new to File operations in Oracle 11g. Have couple of questions;
1. Can i create a directory in Oracle using CREATE DIRECTORY statment which points to my local machine (windows: on which Oracle client is running).
for e.g. CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY c_temp AS 'd:\test';
2. If i can create such a directory, can i use the UTL_FILE.fopen command to open a file from the windows machine and append some text to it.
Or
We can only create direcories that are present in the Oracle Server?
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Directory Prep Tool v6.4 Question

The Sun Docs at http://docs.sun.com/source/819-7561/dirPrepTool.html#wp1036969 says:
"The upgrade of Directory Preparation Tool software to Version 6.4 takes into account the following considerations:
� Version 6.3 (2005Q4) Directory Preparation Tool was installed with Directory Server and resides on any computer hosting Directory Server.
� The upgrade of Directory Preparation Tool must be performed on the computer hosting every Directory Server instance being used by Messaging Server, Calendar Server, Communications Express, or Delegated Administrator components."
In the past we installed the DirPrep on one of our Msg machines and moved the comm_dssetup.pl & schema to all of the Directory Servers and ran it there. The SUNWcomds setup still looks about the same.
Is this process still ok?

Hi,

The SUNWcomds setup still looks about the same.
Is this process still ok?You will need to upgrade the system which has the 2005Q4 SUNWcomds package first before copying the files (so the script/schema are updated to 6.4 version), but I don't see why this approach would stop working now.

"Require authenticated binding between directory and clients" missing

A new install of 10.6, upgraded to 10.6.4 Server does not show the option "Require authenticated binding between directory and clients" under the Open Directory - Settings - Policies - Binding tab. I do see the "Enable authenticated directory binding" option. Also, the terminal command sudo slapconfig -setmacosxodpolicy -binding required does work as a workaround.
This option is not present in both Server Admin on the server itself and one client machines I'm using to manage the server.
Is there a way to get the graphical button to become visible?
Thank you in advance.

This Option is no longer available in the GUI.
See Apple Support Article HT4068.

How to save inline images and attachments separatley?

Hi,
I want to save all inline images into a certain directory and all attachments into another directory.
I use the following code to do this:
Multipart multipart = (Multipart) message.getContent();
 for (int x = 0; x < multipart.getCount(); x++) {
 BodyPart bodyPart = multipart.getBodyPart(x);
 String disposition = bodyPart.getDisposition();
 if(disposition != null){
 log.debug("Disposition: " + disposition);
 if (disposition.equals(BodyPart.ATTACHMENT)) {
 log.debug("Mail has attachment: ");
 DataHandler handler = bodyPart.getDataHandler();
 log.debug("FILENAME: " + handler.getName());
 saveAttachment(session, bodyPart, emailData);
 else if(disposition.equals(BodyPart.INLINE)){
 log.debug("Mail has inline attachment: ");
 DataHandler handler = bodyPart.getDataHandler();
 log.debug("Inline FILENAME: " + handler.getName());
 saveInlineAttachment(session, bodyPart, emailData);
 else {
 log.debug(bodyPart.getContent());
 }This approach works when the email has inline images only or attachments only.
It does not work when the email has both inline images and attachments. (Only the attachments are saved).
Come someone please help me correct my solution so that it can process an email that has both inline images and attachments and save them in different directories.
Thank you

Thanks bshannon.
It took me a while to understand what you meant but I think I finally got it.
I modified the getText method in order to save the embedded images:
private Image getImages(Part p, EmailData emailData, String ext) throws MessagingException, IOException {
 if (p.isMimeType("image/*")) {
 InputStream is = p.getInputStream();
 BufferedImage im = ImageIO.read(is);
 String fileName = "attachments/inline/body " + inlineImageNumber++ + "." + ext;
 File imageFile = new File(fileName);
 ImageIO.write(im,ext,imageFile);
 is.close();
 emailData.getInlineAttachments().add(fileName);
 return null;
 if (p.isMimeType("multipart/related")) {
 Multipart mp = (Multipart)p.getContent();
 Image image = null;
 for (int i = 0; i < mp.getCount(); i++) {
 Part bp = mp.getBodyPart(i);
 if (bp.isMimeType("image/jpeg")) {
 if (image == null){
 image = getImages(bp, emailData, "jpg");
 continue;
 else if (bp.isMimeType("image/gif")) {
 if (image == null){
 image = getImages(bp, emailData, "gif");
 continue;
 else if (bp.isMimeType("image/bmp")) {
 if (image == null){
 image = getImages(bp, emailData, "bmp");
 continue;
 else if (bp.isMimeType("image/png")) {
 if (image == null){
 image = getImages(bp, emailData, "png");
 continue;
 return image;
 else if (p.isMimeType("multipart/*")) {
 Multipart mp = (Multipart)p.getContent();
 for (int i = 0; i < mp.getCount(); i++) {
 Image image = getImages(mp.getBodyPart(i), emailData, "");
 if (image != null){
 return image;
 return null;
 }

CS6: Can't switch off color management in the printerdriver when photoshop manages colors

So this is weird: I'm using CS6 Extended and Lightroom 5 on a Windows 7 Pro machine, printing to an old Canon Pixma Ip5200R. When i print from Lightroom, i am using a special printer profile for the pixma and my photopaper, so color management is switched off in the printer driver. The photos print fine.
Now when i print the same photo from CS6, it has a magenta color cast, so clearly something is wrong with the color management. Even though i am using the same printer, the same paper, the same printer profile and - of course! - had set photoshop to manage the colors, and switched color managent off in the printer driver. The magenta cast could be an indication that the photo is double colormanaged.
It took my quite a while to find out what happens, and this is really weird: When i re-checked the printer driver settings, i noticed that the color management settings did not stick. The canon printer driver offers the options "driver matching" "windows ICM" "none", e.g. having color management done by the printer driver or windows, or switch color management off. So when i go to the PS print settings and set it to "photoshop manages colors", add the correct printer profile, i have to check the settings in the printer driver and make sure that color management is set to "none". I set it to "none" and click OK. Now everything should be configured correctly. But it's not - because when i re-check the print driver settings, i see color management is set to "diver matching". I can go to the print driver settings again and agian, but whenever i check, color management is set to "driver matching". This setting simply does not stick. No wonder i get a mangenta cast on my prints, the colors are doublemanaged by photoshop AND my printer driver.
Now, this is getting weirder: Only the color management settings don't stick. I can change other settings like print quality and the stick.
But - how do i get rid of this? The culprit seems to be photoshop, not the printer driver. If i print from lightroom, i can change the color management settings in the (very same) printer driver and they stick. When i set the photoshop print dialogue to "printer manages colors" i can change the color management settings in the (very same) printer driver - and they stick! So this looks as if photoshop stops me intentionally from using the correct printer driver settings, that is from switching off the printer drivers color management if it is set to manage colors.
I have already resetted my personal photoshop preferences, but this changed nothing. What am i missing? What is going wrong? Your help is very appreciated.

Hi all, Just to let you know that I finally solved my problem myself.
Essentially what had occurred was that I had updated my Epson driver for my printer , but it hadn't installed, despite informing me that it had! To cut a long story short when I checked in System preferences the older driver for Leopard O/S was still the current driver. I proceeded to ask Epson support for assistance, bu despite their efforts I could not immediately resolve the problem. They were directing me to my Utilities program to remove all traces of my current driver from Printer Utility which did not exist. When I queried this they stated it was not always visible and I should proceed to the next step then install the new driver. Problem was they required me to access this invisible utility in order to complete this process, and yes before you ask I had informed them I was using an Intel Mac with Snow Leopard 10.6.2 O/S. Finally I ignored their advice and took the following steps:
1. I opened System Preferences and double clicked the Printer & Fax icon.
2. I highlighted my Epson R2400 Pinter and removed it by clicking the minus sign at the bottom of the Printers window.
3. Next I did a search and deleted any old drivers for my R2400 that were on my system with the exception of the new Driver.
4. I restarted my Mac Pro.
5. I reinstalled my new printer driver which I had previously downloaded from Epson Support.
6. I restarted my Mac Pro and found that the new driver had installed correctly and full functionality had been returned to the Print Features Dialogue box i.e I could now turn of color management and access advanced features to set the quality of printing using the full spec of the R2400.
Hope this post will be helpful to others if they have a similar problem
Regards Denis

Passing arguments to Managed Server ServerStart when using Node Manager

Below is the procedure to pass arguments to Managed Server serverstart tab when using Node Manager to start and stop the Managed Server instance
For passing the JVM arguments we will have to use "-server" which is hotspot and then pass the arguments
for eg: "-server -Xms2048m -Xmx2048m -verbosegc"
For adding jar's to the classpath you will have to add weblogic.jar and weblogic_sp.jar from WL_HOME/server/lib directory as well along with the custom jar (In some cases we can ignore weblogic_sp.jar, just adding weblogic.jar will do).
for eg: "\home\user\debug.jar;\home\user\bea\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\weblogic.jar;\home\user\bea\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\weblogic_sp.jar;"
- - Tarun

Hi,
To me, if you don't wanna use the NodeManager, you won't be able to start your managed servers with WLST.
I guess the only ways are :
* through the console / WLST using the NodeManager
* using the startManagedWebLogic.[cmd/sh]

User synchronization issue between Active Directory and Solution manager.

Requirement:
Synchronize the users between Active directory and solution manager system.
What we did:
1. Created RFC connection (LDAP_RFC) for LDAP connector.
2. Created new LDAP connector that utilize the RFC (LDAP_RFC).
3. Created new logical LDAP Server(CUA).Here we have to maintain the connection
details to the physical directory.
4. We maintained the communication user that is used by the LDAP connector to bind the LDAP Directory Server.
5. In transaction LDAPMAP specific SAP data fields, we mapped to the desired
directory attributes.
6. Testing from LDAP transaction working fine. We are able to see the attributes and
values from Active directory.
Issue:
When executed the program RSLDAPSYNC_USER for user synchronization from t-code se38 with below selection .
LDAP Server = CUA (created earlier)
LDAP Connector = LDAP_RFC (RFC connection created created ealier)
In the tab: (Object that exist both in the directory and in the Database:)
Selected: Compare Time Stamp.
In the tab: (Objects the only exist in the Directory.)
Selected : Create in Database.
In the tab(Objects that only Exist in the Database:
Selected: Ignore Object.
Result from the report shows that connection to LDAP server is fine and 0(zero) objects in Directory.
The program does not create any new user in the Solution Manager system.
Any help on this issue greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Harish

where did you see this error ? is there anymore details.
i think the account you are using for Sync does not have Replicate Directory Changes permission in AD. follow below article and give Replicate directory changes permission.
