How to prevent window iconified

Hi!
I am wandering how to prevent window
iconified (this - button on the right-top-
corner on the window).
DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE works for X button,
any method to stop iconify!
null

You can use the JFrame method "public void processWindowEvent(WindowEvent e)" and when the WindowEvent ID is WINDOW_ICONIFIED, WINDOW_CLOSING or WINDOW_DEACTIVATING or some other event type that you're interested in, you can set the window visible again. Be careful though, if you don't program a way out of this the window will always be on top and you won't be able to perform any other window functions.
Hope this helps.

Team Folder in the past was managed by administrators. Administrator can create, edit, delete team folders. The team folder can be published to a group of users, including Active Directory group. It is very convenient to share files and folders with a group of users in the same team. As team groups bigger, it may not be convenient for administrator to manage all the team folders. So it makes sense for administrator to assign some users to be able to manage team folder that they own themselves. Role Manager It usually starts with the role manager by creating a role with Add/Edit/Delete permissions and assign it to users or Active Directory groups. Manage Team Folder The user who are in the private team folder role will be able to manage team folders without seeing all the team folders from everyone. Here is a YouTube Video about...

How to prevent Windows Media Player plug-in from overriding sizing in html embed code?

My html code for embedding Windows Media Player into a frame recently developed problems in Firefox but not IE 8. The player displays properly at first, but then repositions and resizes. It seems my width setting is honored, but not my height setting. Also, autoplay="false' (or "0") additionally is not honored- the video starts playing after the repositioning and resizing. I have tried different embed code with the same result. I have the correct Windows Media Player Firefox Plug-in and it is up to date. I tried updating to Firefox version 9.0.1, but the problem persists. I've come across web postings positing the plug-in settings are overriding embed code. Any workarounds appreciated. Thank you.

How to prevent iTunes for Windows from "Updating iTunes Library"? (Library is on a NAS and managed by iTunes for Mac. Now getting update wars between Mac and Windows versions of the player.

How to prevent iTunes for Windows from "Updating iTunes Library"?
My library is on a NAS and managed by iTunes on a Mac. I can connect from wife's Windows laptop using iTunes for Windows but every time I do, it Updates iTunes Library. Next time I log in from my Mac it Updates iTunes Library in return. It appears I'm experiencing "Update Wars" between the Mac and Windows versions of iTunes. I would like to allow my wife to stream iTunes songs to her new laptop but I don't want any updates from this source... prefer to manage the library from my Mac and not allow Windows to do any thing other than listen to existing playlists.
Thanks for any help/suggestions.

Connect the PC to the library on the NAS. Wait while "updated".
Under Edit > Preferences > Advanced make sure the media folder is correctly pointed at the media folder on the NAS. If not correct, close iTunes, wait a few moments, then open iTunes again.
Close iTunes on the PC. Do not open iTunes on the Mac.
Copy the library files, iTunes Library.itl, iTunes Library Extras.itdb, iTunes Library Genius.itdb, sentinel and the folder Album Artwork into an empty iTunes folder on the PC, for example C:\iTunes.
Click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down SHIFT. Keep holding until prompted to choose or create a library. Click choose and browse to the copied .itl file, e.g. C:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl
The library should now work properly on the PC, however check the setting for the media folder. If needs be correct, close iTunes and reopen.
Open iTunes on the Mac. It will update again, but that should be last time.

Multiple podcast login windows cause iTunes to be unresponsive. How to prevent attempt of authentication from unsubsribed podcasts?

I have several podcasts that I have been storing following the subscription service. These podcasts in recent updates to iTunes have been attempting logging on (for what I assume) to check for updates to the podcasts. This occurs at initialization of iTunes and at periodic intervals while iTunes is running. When the login/password window appears, iTunes becomes unresponsive. Any media that is currently playing continues to play, but cannot be paused, fast forwarded, etc. After a period of time, iTunes becomes responsive, it can take 10+ minutes. At this time, I can cancel the login windows by hitting cancel the number of times I have individual password protected podcasts (that I do not have active usernames/passwords for).
I have opened the settings for each podcast and they are all "unsubscribed" and have set every setting that I can find so that the podcasts do not update, but I am still getting prompts to login causing iTunes to be unresponsive.
I do not want to delete the podcasts, because I still want to use the podcasts and associated podcast documents. Any suggestions on how to prevent the podcasts from attempting to authenticate?
Note that I have had these podcasts for >1yr as unsubscribed podcasts and have not had this issue until recent updates to iTunes. (Since 11.1 or 11.2.)

I've had a problem similar to yours since the iTunes update in January 2014. I have not subscribed to any paid podcasts...mine are all free, and I don't recall that any have needed a password. Since January, when I have iTunes open and click on Podcasts, I get a pop-up window that says "Authentication Required" needing username and password. I can try 5 times with entering username/password, then iTunes locks-up, and if I click cancel on the pop-up window, iTunes locks-up. I start Task Manager then alt/control/delete...that's the way I have to close out the iTunes window. Any updates since January has not fixed the problem. In about mid May, quite by surprise, I clicked on podcasts and it opened without the pop-up window showing and I was able to click on any of my podcasts. After another update, I was back to the same problem. The problem has to be with that update in January. If you run across a "fix" for the problem, please post, I'd really like to get my iTunes working again. I use Windows 7.

How to prevent from starting oracle server every time i start windows?

I have winXP professinonal, and i would like to know how to prevent from starting oracle server every time i start windows. Because it really slows starting the windows. Thanks

The scripts above seems to work as intended with no errors and do indeed stop my five XE services. I created the second script to start them and they do indeed start and are listed as "Started" in the Services panel aferwards.
My XE installation has the 5 services set up to start automatically.
I was happy to find the script above because I did not know the starting order and using the XE shortcuts for "Stop Database" and "Start Database" just seemed to cause sqlplus to receive ORA-12514 "listener does not currently know of service..." after trying to use them to restart the database. Using the scripts above seems to leave me with a different error.
I am pretty sure I eliminated my 9i listener and it is no longer listed in my Services panel or the registry.
Restarting the laptop does start the services correctly, and now I am on to a more pressing JDBC error, so if I get a chance to use the script again, I will post my results. Thanks.

How to prevent apps from syncing in the new version of itunes?

Hey there.
I brang my macbook to Applestore cause it had a problem and they downloaded the latest version of itunes. Everything's fine and my music, videos and apps are in the new itunes like before. But now, when I want to sync my iphone, a pop window asks me to give the password of the itunes account I used to download some of my apps or it will delete them and their data.

Has anyone any idea how to sort that out? Or at least knows how to prevent apps from syncing in this new version of itunes?

EAP MD5 with ISE 1.2 - How to Prevent Active Directory Account locks?

Hi,
Is there any how to prevent accounts to be locked in AD if someone do a password brute force attack in a account? ISE has some feature/Configuration to prevent this type of attack ?
Thanks.

So what you're saying is the retry values only come in to play if the RADIUS server is inaccessible, right?
Windows laptops actually work just fine, because many of them are using machine authentication. The main issue seems to be from iPhones, which are saving the username/password and then re-attempting too many times when the user changes password.
One solution is to use LDAP instead of AD within ACS, but the downside is the password can be guessed thousands of time in a row and open to dictionary attacks. We do enforce complex password policies so the liklihood of an account being compromised is slim, but, I'd rather eliminate the chance entirely.

When I open itunes I get a 'DATA EXECUTION PREVENTION' 'Windows closed program'. Can anybody help please.

It sounds as if iTunes is failing to launch properly on your Windows computer. You don’t mention what version of Windows you have, but one of these two articles should be useful to you -

How to prevent JFileChooser automatically changing to parent directory?

When you show only directories, and click on the dir icons to navigate, and then dont select anything and click OK, it automatically 'cd's to the parent folder.
My application is using the JFileChooser to let the user navigate through folders and certain details of 'foo' files in that folder are displayed in another panel.
So we dont want the chooser automatically changing dir to parent when OK is clicked. How to prevent this behavior?
I considered extending the chooser and looked at the Swing source code but it is hard to tell where the change dir is happening.
thanks,
Anil
To demonstrate this, I took the standard JFileChooserDemo from the Sun tutorial and modified it adding these lines
          // NEW line 45 in constructor
          fc.addPropertyChangeListener((PropertyChangeListener) this);
          fc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);

      * @see java.awt.event.ActionListener#actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent)
     public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent e) {
          String prop = e.getPropertyName();
          if (JFileChooser.DIRECTORY_CHANGED_PROPERTY.equals(prop)) {
               System.out.println("DIRECTORY_CHANGED_PROPERTY");
               File file = (File) e.getNewValue();

How to block Windows update services?

We have a need to prevent windows update traffic to flow thru our network on certain dates. Basically this type of traffic will clog our mpls bandwidth preventing other type of traffic to flow. We are using up to some part QoS on out routers but it not working all the time. Eg, we put in ip address of one windows update server but updates are pulled of the other, then you enter second ip and updates are coming from third, etc.
I would like to explore other, a bit more controllable options utilizing Cisco's technology: ASA 8.4, IronPort WSA.
In summary, to create a traffic policy, not specific to IP addresses, that will kick in at certain date/time, be on for certain period of time and turned off after (automatically).
Any ideas, suggestions how to tackle this issues would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,.

In WSA, go to Web Security Manager/Define Custom Time ranges, and create a time range, call it "Workday", set it for the time you want to block.
Create a new Access Policy, set the identies to All Users, click Advanced at the bottom.
Set the time range to the Workday time range.
Set the user agent to the Microsof Windows Updates (Its under Common User Agents/Others)
In the Protocols section of the policy, set it for "Define custom settings", and tell it to http, ftp, etc.
There are other ways to do it, creating an Identity for example, and then creating a policy for that, but this should work...

How to Prevent SharePoint Farm Password from Changing

I have been trying to stop the SP farm account, spfarm, from password changing. SharePoint Central Administration is used and I go to Central Security -> Configure managed accounts. I set spfarm not to change but it makes no difference.
It still changes. When that happens it screws up the SharePoint VSS Writer service account and backups fail (the password synch script has to run to fix). When the setting in SP CA is changed to allow password changes, the SharePoint VSS Writer
service account still has a problem and backups fail.
Additionally, I have run the two below scripts when necessary to try to correct the problem and it works until the password changes again. It seems as though the password changes whenever the server restarts or at least once every week or so.
Can anyone help me with this? I don't care if the password changes on a schedule as long as it doesn't cause the SharePoint VSS Writer service to fail during backup.
Repair-SPManagedAccountDeployment (This checks synch of passwords)
set-spmanagedAccount -UseExistingPassword
This is on a Windows Small Business Server 2011, which runs SharePoint 2010.

Hi Tony,
In SBS 2011, use 3 different accounts to run Windows SharePoint Foundation. The accounts are spfarm (SharePoint
Farm Account), spsearch, and spwebapp. For security reasons the passwords on these accounts are periodically reset. The password for spfarm is reset every 7 days that the Windows SBS Manager service is running.
à
How to Prevent SharePoint Farm Password from Changing
I will suggest that set the password expiry to be longer (such as: a month or 365 days or even more) and apply
it. Maybe a workaround.
By the way, the Windows SBS Manager service manages the spfarm account. This spfarm account will be found under
MyBusiness-> Users-> SBS Users in ADUC. If you navigate to the spfarm account in ADUC and open the Properties of it, then select
“Password never expires” under Account options in Account tab. Please check if this can help you to achieve target.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,

Preventing Windows 7 From Automatically Shutting Down

Hi there,
I am transferring a large amount of data and need to leave the PC on overnight. I believe I have configured Windows so that automatic restarts for updates are disabled, yet the PC still sometimes shuts down when left on for long periods.
Any advice on how to prevent automatic shutdowns is hugely appreciated.
Many thanks...

If your computer is actually shutting down and not going into sleep mode then you probably need to look in task scheduler and see if there is a task that launches "C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe" at some scheduled time.
If the PC is actually just going into sleep mode then use Control Panel to alter your power plan in System and Security, power options.
It may even be possible that the BIOS has a setting for your PC to turn off at some point. Although I doubt that but would check the BIOS settings.
