How to set preferences for all users?

I'm working with a windows CITRIX server and I need to disable the 'Remember passwords for sites' preference for all the users on the server. How do you do this for any user launching firefox on the server?

You can lock the signon.rememberSignons pref to false via the mozilla.cfg file.
lockPref("signon.rememberSignons", false);
You canuse a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify new (default) values.
Place a local-settings.js file in the defaults\pref folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

Hi Arti,
In cProjects the authorizations can be managed either by authorization profile administration by system administrator for General authorizations or by Project specific authorizations for individual cProjects elements by Project owner.
Try the first one and I hope you will get the solution.

Set Preferences for all users

I need to be able to set QT preferences that are persistent to all users of a particular computer.
For example, I need to set the video to Safe Mode, but that setting only gets saved to the currently logged in user. Safe Mode would not be enabled for a user logging in with a different account.
This is on a Windows XP SP3 machine with the latest version of QT.

C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QuickTime cpl is the file for the QT control panel.
With XP pro open the Folder Options control panel and click on the View tab. Uncheck> Use simple file sharing [Recommended] this will give the computer a Security tab. While in Folder Options you probably should put a check\dot in> Show hidden files and folders, and uncheck> Hide extensions for known file types and maybe uncheck> Hide protected opersting system file Recommended, to be sure QuickTime cpl shows up.
Right click on QuickTime cpl and click on the Security tab. This should give you the ability to work with permissions for user accounts

Setting Default Preferences for All Users in Crystal Reports Server 2008 v1

We are currently looking to set the default preferences in the CMC for all of our users.
I did locate this page Link: [How to set default preferences for all users in Infoview 3.1/CRS 2008]
The first part of the thread did seem promising but I am unable to find the sample .jsp code that people recommended.
I would assume that this scenario is common enough that someone knows a way to set universal preference defaults.
Thank you

I thought I could just run it too but when I attempt to I get a Windows Script Host error:
Script: C:\User Prefs.vbs
Line: 1
Char: 1
Error: Expected statement
Code: 800A0400
Source: Microsoft VBScript compilation error.
I noticed the first most line seems to be markup for a web interface though I am not familiar with vbs so I may be wrong. I used the publishing wizard to put the script on the CMC to attempt to run it through the CMC but it still does not work.

You may have to log in as the Administrator user rather than
"run as adminstrator".
Beyond that, are there really enough users on a system that
they can't install the extension(s) they need themselves?

How do I set Premiere preferences for all users - University lab machine?

I am setting up an editing suite for our University which has a "per machine" Creative Cloud licence. It is a PC installation. This machine will be used by a class of students who will log in with their own credentials. I need to set the preferences for Premiere (video output, workspace layout, default drives etc) so that it will be the same for all users logging in since we want a consistent setup for teaching purposes and dont want to have to help each student set up so that it shows correctly on the monitors. Is there a way of saving this setting as the default for every user?
The most important one is the preferences - Playback in order to set up the second monitor.

Want to set Reader option in Internet Preferences for all users that login to the workstation

How can I do this? Is there a config file to edit or a policy object to maintain the perferences settings for all users. Right now this has to be set manually for each users that would use the system. Thank you!

Making customisation from the default profile is generally considered poor practice and quite often doesn't work out as planned. (If you're interested in some more information on this, [http://mockbox.net/windows-7/227-customise-windows-7-default-profile.html see here] see here)
This article should help you with developing and deploying your customised Firefox 4 installation (without touching the Windows 7 default user profile):

Setting Crystalviewer for all users in CMC

I am trying to setup Crystal Reports server 2008 VI for my organization. One of the requirement is to disable the Preferences in inoview and set the crystal report viewer to the Web ActiveX control for all users. I was able to disable the preference parameter in CMC -> Allications -> InfoView, but could not find away to set the default viewer for all InfoView users to the activeX control? Is this doable? If so I would like to know how.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Enable preferences and go to Infoview, click oh Preferences and change the view format to ActiveX and save it. Do this for Administrator users.
There is download available, using that you can make the same change for all users, check the below link.
Re: Setting the same "InfoView Start Page" to all users in one group
With that you can change the settings for all users as Administrator, once done remove the access to Preferences.
Thanks,

How to create gpo for all users in all ou?????

hello,plz help me.i want to create gpo for all users in all ou.but i dont want that gpo to do in domain????

Can you elaborate what you mean by "but i dont want that gpo to do in domain"?
In terms of applying it to all users, that's simple enough, you can simply leave the GPO's security filtering with its default setting as "Authenticated Users" which then apply to everyone.
In terms of it applying to all OUs, you only have two options.
1) Create the GPO and link it to the root of your domain, so it then applies to the entire domain and all the OUs within it.
2) Create the GPO, but instead link it to each OU that you want it to apply to. You can apply one GPO to as many OUs as you want, simply right click on the OU and select "Link an Existing GPO...". It's then not applied to the root of the domain, only the
OUs, but any changes you make to the GPO are applied to all the OUs that you've linked it to (rather than having a separate GPO for each of them).

Does ctrl-alt-shift clear preferences for all users?

On a multi-user computer, does holding ctrl-alt-shift during InDesign launch clear preferences files for all users on that computer, or just the current user? I have a few multi-user machines that are having issues, which the knowledagebase says is often cured by clearing preferences.
Thanks guys!

How can I configure FireFox security setting globally for all users on a PC? Is there something I can do in group policies or throught the registry to insure all users have the same settings?

Our Bank's core processor has rewritten their product to run in a web browser. Their browser of choice is Firefox 3.6. The specifications from our core processor specify specific security and settings parameters that must be adhered to by all users for their product to run properly. Is there a way to globally configure these settings via the registry or group policies to insure everyone who logs in to a given workstation opens Firefox with the same settings? Thank you for any assistance you can provide - Steve Gish, First Bank Kansas.

Edit defaults mode , Preferences for all users.

Hi,
Iam working on an portlet app as part of it am planning to make the portlet application as jsr 168 compliant.
I have few questions regarding the jsr 168 stuff.
a) what versions of Bea portal do support the jsr 168 portlets it is it available for download todo some investigation.
b) This is an question related to preferences - For example Suppose user "A" publshes the portlet and another logged in user views the portlet he should see the same set of preferences or the defaults set by the user "A" . Some portals like Oracle portal achieve this by supporting a mode called Edit Defaults mode. How do i achieve this in a Portal which doesn't support edit defaults but it is JSR compliant. In other words the prefences set by the user "A" should be available to user "B" , how does i achieve this functionality in other portals. Note Edit defaults mode is an custom mode supported by the JSR 168 API it is not a mandatory mode like the Edit, View or Help .
Thanks in Advance.

How to set Password for Xellerate user in OIM

I am using recon API's and creating Xellerate user, unfortunately the recon is not accepting USR_PASSWORD which is the field name defined in OIM
Can somebody please let me know how to set this password for Xellerate user??
Thank you in advance for your response. (this is go-live issue you know what that means :-)

Hi,
If you are doing reconciliation and trying to reconcile the password as well. Then you must map the Resource Object attribute for the password field to the 'Identity' field of OIM. You can find this field in the 'Reconciliation Field Mappings' section for Xellerate User. Just map the field which you want to be set as OIM user password in the section and you are done.
