HT5981 AD Bind via Custom Settings payload?

OS X Mavericks: Using advanced Active Directory options in a configuration profile
Apple indicates that advanced Active Directory configuration options are configurable as a "Custom Settings" payload in Profile Manager.
My tests indicate this is not the case, but perhaps I am missing something?
Has anbody been able to get this work?
Can anybody provide a concrete example of the correct Property List structure one must employ to get this to work?
Thanks,
Brian

Profile Manager Custom Settings multiple payloads?

We have been unable to deploy multiple Mac OS X Custom Settings payloads in Profile Manager under a Device Group profile.
We can seemingly create multiple Custom Settings payloads in one Device Group profile using Profile Manager's web interface, but when deployed, if more than one custom setting payload was created, none of the Custom Settings payloads will deploy.
We can deploy a single Custom Settings payload per device group profile, and have verified our key/data pairs have correct syntax. But add a second custom setting and deployment fails.
We have also tried downloading the multiple Custom Settings payload profile for manual installation, yet the issue still occurs - multiple custom settings payloads won't deploy. There must be some mangling in the XML content from Profile Manager.
Mac OS X 10.8.4
OS X Server 2.2.1
Any common experience with this? Any workarounds? We could create multiple Device Groups, each with a single Custom Setting payload, but that will get very complicated very quickly.
Otherwise we're stuck with using Workgroup Manager preference management for now.

I have almost the exact same problem. This stupid issue/ bug has existed since server 10.7 I simply tried to import the com.apple.sidebarlists plist file from my local account. It almost seems to corrupt profile manager when anything is loaded into the custom settings. When I try to install the profile on another mac I don't have the Enroll option avaiable to me becuase it acts like it's already enrolled. Soon as I remove the custom setting the profile installs fine. If Apple can't make a critical part of profile manager work corretly they need to just remove it. This problem has existed for a while. I tried filing a bug report under apple.com/feedback since I don't have a develpoer account...but even that website doesn't have a choice for OSX server 10.7 or 10.8 becuase the stupid site is so outdated.

After upgrading to FF 7. When I change my Privacy settings to Use custom settings and check ok, the changes are not saved.

Using Win 7 sp1
FireFox 7.0.1
In Privacy Settings: When I change the FireFox will: to "use custom settings for history" and check ok, the setting isn't saved. After I close, then reopen the Privacy Settings tab, the setting for FireFox will: is back to "remember history"
Thank you

You can try to delete the cookies.sqlite and permissions.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.

I have selected "Use custom settings for history" and pressed "OK" but it defaults back to "Remember history", how do I stop this?

I have to enable cookies in order to have an online purchase credited to my mileage account. So, I opened Firefox Tool and selected Options then Privacy. There, I changed "Remember history" to "Use custom settings for history," as, this will achieve what I am trying to do. However, when I press "OK" the box jumps back to the Privacy box and I see that "Remember history" is still the setting. What steps do I take to prevent the Privacy box from defaulting to "Remember history" when I want to change that setting to something else?

The "Use custom settings for history" selection allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting this doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings.
Firefox shows "Use custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".
"Never Remember History" means that Private Browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" gets a checkmark.
Do you have a problem with the cookies?

Where are custom settings stored?

Hi,
I created a custom setting that I use for my youtube videos. I want to copy this setting so that I can back it up and use it on another computer.
Where is it located? I cannot seem to find it...
Thanks

The custom compressor settings are located at
/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Application Support/Compressor
If you're going to transfer the Compressor settings between multiple systems I'd recommend creating the custom settings folder via the Compressor Settings pane, this will create a folder containing the custom settings that you've create and will allow you to easily drag and drop this folder onto other system.
Hope this helps.

Duplicate rows in AdvancedDataGrid when pushing updates via custom Assembler?

We are trying to use LCDS transactions to dynamically push updates from a server side application via custom Assembler to AdvancedDataGrid. Latter is using fill result ArrayList as its data source.
Unfortunately we haven't been fully successful thus far. Grid shows fine initial snapsot delivered by fill but subsequent record updates result in a duplicate rows shown in a grid.
We are using Flex 3, SDK 3.5 and LCDS ES 2.6.1.
Here is the relevant code in our custom assembler to do the update push:
_results.add(dataUpdate); // _results is the ArrayList object returned with data on the original fill
DataServiceTransaction dtx = DataServiceTransaction.begin("FOO", false);
dtx.addItemToFill(_assemblerId, _currentParams, _results.size()-1,dataUpdate);
dtx.commit();
// we see this method gets called as result of the code above
public Object getItem(Map identity) {
      Object item = null;
      String id = identity.get("ID").toString();
      for (LinkedHashMap<String,Object> itemMap : _results) {
      if (itemMap.get("ID").equals(id)) {
            item = itemMap;
       break;
      return item;
And finally here is the destination configuration for the assembler in the data-management-config.xml file:
<destination id="updates">
<properties>
       <source>UpdatesAssembler</source>
        <scope>session</scope>
<auto-sync-enabled>false</auto-sync-enabled>
<metadata>
                 <identity property="ID"/>
</metadata>
<network>
                 <paging enabled="false"/>
</network>
</properties>
</destination>
And naturally, we bind the datagrid dataProvider to the array collection returned by the original fill call.
As stated above, this solution results in two rows of the same data appearing in datagrid for every updated pushed by the assembler.
Can you please advise what are we doing wrong.
Thanks!

What events are coming back to the client?
If you add an event listener to the dataService object in ActionScript, you can see what events are coming in.
    dataService.addEventListener(MessageEvent.RESULT, resultHandler);
This might help diagnose it.

Safari toolbar not remembering custom settings.

Anyone else seeing this bug?
Whenever I customize the Safari toolbar (mainly to remove the bookmark button from the address bar) Safari will reload the default toolbar (but with Evernote clipper and 1Password and Delicious buttons) after a quit and re-open.
It happens on both my iMac and Macbook.

Hi
A corrupt preference file seems to be at the root of the "disappearing icons". On both machines, via the Finder: Your User Account>Library>Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.safari.plist file to the trash, then restart Safari. This resets Safari preferences to default values. Restore any custom settings in either the Preference panel, Edit (spelling), or View Menu. Also, restore any custom icons.
Also, the reset adds Apple default bookmarks to your Bookmarks collection (command/option/B keys). Delete any you don't want.

Configuration Profile Custom Settings in Profile Manager

Hi All,
I'm a newbie when it comes to OS X configuration profiles. Does anyone have any resources on customizing or editing configuration profiles?
I've been playing around with Profile Manager for a few days and see the "Custom Settings" tab. I'm curious what kind of things I can customize here. Being a newbie I don't know where to start.... If anyone has any documentation or link to online resource or book recommendation on editing mobileconfig files or creating custom settings with payloads in Profile Manager I'd really appreciate it!! There are a lot of tweeks that I'd like to set on our computers and I'd like to see if I can do these tweeks with configuration profiles.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Where did my old custom settings go?

Just downloaded compressor 4 from App Store...where are all my custom settings from Compressor 3 and will they work in compressor 4?

When you mount a partition to "/home" is "goes over top of" what is already there. Most likely your old user is underneath that old mount and can't be seen because the new mount is sitting on top of it. You could boot off the Arch ISO, make sure your new /home isn't mounted, and move your old user out of /home and then mount your new /home and copy the user onto that partition.

I don't seem to be able to activate the Never Remember History in Privacy. It is set to Use Custom Settings, I change it to Never Remember History but whenever I open up options, it has reverted to Never remember history. How can I change it? Thank you

At the moment my privacy settings are Use Custom Settings in Private Browsing mode with no third party cookies. Recently however when I log out of hotmail the msn homepage comes up. So I decided to change to never remember history settings. However, whenever I change it, it always reverts back to Use Custom Settings. Why and how can I change it?
Thank you

Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".
You enter Private Browsing mode if you select:
* Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history" > [X] "Always use private browsing mode"

I want to set Firefox to never remember history. When I do this using the tools tab and click okay, it goes right back to "Use Custom Settings for History". I don't want that.

I know how to manage privacy using the tools tab at the top of the address bar, or so I thought. I want to choose "Never Remember History". When I do that, and click "OK", the next time I check the privacy settings, the history is right back to "Use custom settings for history". I don't want this. Also, I don't want to use autocomplete for forms, but I can't get those settings to stay, either. I basically don't want info. stored on this computer. My system was hacked several months ago, by some joker who named all my system folders a racist slur (I reported it to Norton, and a technician had a look at it). Anyway, I want to keep things as safe as possible. Please allow me to delete all my history when I close Firefox. I don't really like Google, either, because they have a reputation for not respecting people's privacy. I don't like that I didn't have an option to uncheck google's toolbar when I installed Firefox.
Thank you.

That is probably OK.<br />
You may have changed one of the other history or cookie settings.
If Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting then that is an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings are not the default to make you aware that changes were made.

Photoshop CC 2014 has lost all my custom settings, all my batch actions, all my custom desktops. Can't I import them from previous PSCC, or do I have to create everything over again?

Photoshop CC2014 has just been installed earlier today, and it won't access all of my custom settings from the previous PSCC. I constantly use Batch Actions, always work in custom workspaces, and they're all gone. I can't find an option to retrieve them from the previous version, which seems ridiculous. It will take at least a full day's work to recreate this stuff that's sitting right there in the previous version. Isn't there someway to "update" the new version with my custom batches and workspaces at least?

how do you get to user library preferences. can't find it in the c drive
The terms you used, "user library" and "c drive" are from Mac and PC architectures respectively. Read the information at the link I posted more carefully - there are different sections for Mac and PC.
Keep in mind the AppData folder is usually hidden by Microsoft,
Also know that Adobe hasn't updated that page to include specific locations for CC 2014, so you have to look around just a bit when you get to the deepest folder.
As an example, here's where my preferences are on Windows 8.1:
C:\Users\NoelC\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014

Gallery caption custom settings - adding blank spaces?

When using the custom settings in the Caption option within the Gallery Module I would like to add blank spaces between options but can't find a way to do it. I prefer not to use dashs or other characters for separators. Ie: <filename> blank space/s <custom text>. Even with custom text, only only blank space is accepted no matter how many you put in. Can this be done?

I'm not too familiar with the web module, but if you want there to be a series of spaces, you have to use a series of non-breaking space entities, all in a row. If you are doing that, it appears that the interface or the processing is removing them. You might be forced to hacking the template. I hear they are just HTML files renamed to something else and stashed somewhere in the Lr install directory.
If you do end up hacking your own template, you might want to style the divs and spans you are using, as that will be more robust.

Error: Sender agreement not found, lookup of binding via CPA-CACHE failed.

Hi,
I am doing an RFC to File Scenario in which RFC has to be triggered from CRM system. The TCP/IP connection and communication Channel are working fine. But when i trigger my RFC using the RFC destination following errors occur:
1. The SYSTEM_FALIURE exception comes on CRM side.
2. In adapter monitoring the following error comes on XI side:
Error: Sender agreement not found, lookup of binding via CPA-CACHE failed for Adapter type RFC.
I have also tried the scenario with RFC request as source message and also after J2EE cache refresh but the problem still persists. And one more thing my file adapter (In receiver communication channel) is not working means it is not started. And no message is coming in SXMB_MONI.
Could anyone please help me to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Vinay Yadav

Hi Aaron,
I had the same error and your feedback solved my problem!
Thank you sooo much!!!!

Firefox v30 Privacy settings: Use customs settings are not saved

After changing privacy settings to
-> Use custom settings for history
[X] Always use private browsing mode
[_] Remember my browsing and download history
[_] Remember search and form history
[X] Accept cookies from sites
Accept third-party cookies: [Always]
Keep until: [I close Firefox ]
When exiting Firefox and relaunching it, this settings is gone.
and 'reset to [Remember history]
Any suggestions as to how to solve this?
Thanks
=

Sorry, to reset firefox will require me to install a number of plug-ins.
All my settings were lost.
Luckely I created a backup using MozBackup.exe.
Some add-ons can easily be re-installed, but what about stuff like Acrobat PDF creator and Norton Vulnerability Protection. I think those add-ons are installed when an application is installed, so it would require me to re-install such applicatons.
Preferences not saved: nothing is write protected.
Deep sigh...
