I need a TS Shortcut to exe on desktop
I've seen in the TestStand Deployment the option (checkbox) to Create a Program Item. I don't want my testexec to start right away. What I really need is an icon on the desktop. How do I create a desktop icon (shortcut) to the exe that gets created during the installation?
I've seen this done with some other installer tools, but I don't think the TS Deployment tool does this. Maybe you could deploy using TestStand, then use one of the installer tools that can do this to create an install file that deploys the TS Deployed files and create the shortcut. In other words, use the TS Deployer, then create an install file with the newly deployed files. Use the final install file to deploy to all other machines. A google search for Installer or Package Install might lead to one that performs this action.

Place Outlook shortcut on All Users' desktops via Group policy
Hello I am looking for a way to deploy a desktop shortcut to all of our Windows 7 machines for Microsoft Outlook. The difficulty I am running into is that we have x86 and x64 versions of Microsoft Office installed on the machines, and no easy way to identify
which is which.
Does anyone have a suggestion of how to create a single Group Policy that could place an Outlook shortcut on the public desktop which would work regardless of what version is installed?If all of Office suite (e.g. Office 15) installed in default path, please deploy the following script and run it locally:
Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
strDesktopFolder = objShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
Set objShortCut = objShell.CreateShortcut(strDesktopFolder & _
"\Outlook.lnk")
objShortCut.TargetPath = chr(34) & "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15\OUTLOOK.EXE" & chr(34)
ObjShortCut.IconLocation = "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15\OUTLOOK.EXE, 0"
objShortCut.Save
The following application path is also ok in this vbs
%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office 2013\Outlook 2013.lnk
Thanks.

App Error 523 - Reset on 470_b059_multilanguage.exe - BB Desktop SW 4.7
I'm just upgraded to the 470_b059_multilanguage.exe BlackBerry Desktop SW 4.7 and, after step 9, on step 10 waiting for device comes again (can't remember the name of the step) on my device appears the "App Error 523", even after the battery pulled out. Please HELP me.
Solved!
Go to Solution.installing desktop software does not reinstall software to your device. you shouldnt have even needed to have your device plugged in to install desktop software. you would have to install desktop maanger, plug your device in, install device software to windows, open desktop manager, use either the update option, or application loader option to install the device software to your BB.
and during this installation it went bad. and previous poster was correct... you need to reinstall
close DTM
goto control panel- add/remove progs
check for bbdesktop manager 4.7 and see if there is any other bb program installed... this will be your device software... im hoping its 4.5.x.x
dont uninstall anything here, just for informational purposes, close add/remove progs and control panel
open my computer and go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
open the program loader.exe
remove your battery.. and run the wizard, till its complete
you will get a multistage error, close wizard
put battery in and wait till it boots to a 507 error
run loader.exe again -

How to list all .URL shortcuts on multiple computers desktops
I've been searching to find a Powershell script that polls a list of computer names and then returns a list of the .URL shortcuts along with their targets from the logged in users desktop.
Does anyone know if there is one out there or at least point me in the right direction?
Thanks$strComputer = Get-Content C:\ps\test.txt
function Get-DesktopShortcuts
$Shortcuts = Get-ChildItem -Recurse ~\desktop\ -Include *.url
$Shell = New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell
foreach ($computer in $strComputer)
foreach ($Shortcut in $Shortcuts)
$Properties = @{
Computer = $computer.Name
ShortcutName = $Shortcut.Name
Target = $Shell.CreateShortcut($Shortcut).targetpath
New-Object PSObject -Property $Properties
[Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::ReleaseComObject($Shell) | Out-Null
$Output = Get-DesktopShortcuts
$Output
$Output | Export-Csv C:\ps\shortcut.csv
This is what I've put together but seems to only show a single url for each computer even though I know there are multiple .url files on the desktop for each computer. Plus it is outputting only google.com shortcuts. Hmmm -

Question
How do I put a Shortcut Icon on my Desktop linking to a certain Webpage, like I could do with I.E./Google? Where do I find "Create Shortcut' ???Hey, Dynamite !
Thanks so much for that ... what a 'dynamite' solution. It's so easy. I don't know how you people know all of these things ! But one last thing if you can help me - I've just switched over to Mozilla/Firefox from I.E., and now I cannot open my Hotmail from Mozilla/Firefox. I log in, it goes to my 'Inbox' page, but when I click on an Email letter to open it, nothing happens. I can't even go into 'Drafts' or 'Delete' or anything.

I downloaded mountain lion on my laptop. Do I need to do the same on my Desktop and iPad or is the one download good for all 3, and how do I do that if it is?
If your desktop computer is one that supports Mountain Lion, you can either download it there or make a bootable jump drive with the installer on it -- assuming you haven't yet used the installer you downloaded to your laptop.
As for the iPad, it doesn't use the same OS as the Macs do; it uses iOS versions, so Mountain Lion won't work there. -

I need to know how to get my desktop (mac mini) laptop (mac book pro) iPhone4S & ipad all sharing the same iCloud... I have four deveices... I\iPad & iPhone are synced to the mini, but the laptop is the main one.
First, your Macs must have OS X Lion, and your devices iOS 5. Then, go to your devices and open Settings > iCloud to configure the same Apple ID. In your computers, go to System Preferences > iCloud and set up iCloud with the Apple ID

Need to restart the explorer.exe process virtually every single time I need to access a file
As the subject/title says.
This is on my replacement ThinkPad W530 which replaced my previous T530. I had my T530 from about April until earlier this week when it was picked up. The T530 gave me nothing but problems, including, but not limited to:
Constant stalling of everything on the laptop with no mouse movement
An out of the blue nonfunctioning microphone mute button and fingerprint reader a few weeks after I had the T530's motherboard replaced (because of the stalling issue)
Every hour or so, I would get successive blackouts of the screen that were about 3-5 seconds apart. Sometimes they would reset the maximisation of the windows I had open
But I digress; those were issues with my previous ThinkPad. Now the major standout issue I have with my W530 is that pretty much any time I want to access a file, I have to close and restart the explorer.exe process. This results from:
Not being able to access folders or folder shortcuts on my desktop
Not being able to use anything on my taskbar including the start menu. This includes hitting the windows key
NOTE: this is an issue with WINDOWS explorer and NOT INTERNET explorer, which one member of your support team was not able to distinguish - this person tried to direct me to WiFi troubleshooting.
The only way I have been able to remedy this has been to use task manager to reset it.
In addition, you would expect a W530 with an i7-3740QM and an Nvidia K2000M Quadro to be pretty much buttery smooth, especially considering it's about 2 weeks old, right? Far from it. This is the slowest excuse for a new laptop that is this well spec'd I have ever used.
I have done factory resets and pretty much everything under the sun within the realms of the Lenovo periperhal programs to try to remedy it (so as to not void my warranty) to no avail.
If this problem cannot be fixed without me going well out of my way, then I am demanding a refund. Your support team, whilst generally helpful and *usually* knowing what they are talking about, have not been a help, and have honestly just been another hurdle to get past so I can get my money back. I do applaud them for the willingness to sit and walk people through everything.
If this is the price I pay for the reliability of a Lenovo ThinkPad, then I greatly look forward to the glorious day I can be rid of Lenovo from my life and making about $500 while I go buy an equivalently or better spec'd laptop from quite literally any other computer company on the planet.What operating system are you running? I assume they had you install the latest BIOS. True? If it were mine, I would suggest forcing it to use integrated graphics (in the BIOS) to rule out a problem with the NVidia driver.

Gnome 3 - command for shutdown dialog (need for keyboard shortcut)
I'd like to create a keyboard shortcut for shutdown dialog; it's the dialog that appears when press your username (top-right corner) and then select "Shut down..." option. There was "gnome-session-save --shutdown-dialog" or something similar in Gnome 2 (or so it seems by reading forum posts), but the same command doesn't exist in Gnome 3.
I'm not rebooting or shutting down my OS a lot, but when I do, I'm automatically trying to press some keyboard shortcut.I started digging around more and found this option in System Settings/Power: "When the power button is pressed: Ask me". But, it doesn't work for me, because OS doesn't detect power button on my thinkpad. So it seems that I have to install acpid, but I still need to know the command for Gnome's shutdown dialog.

Hello,
I have installed the update that was sent on or around January 24th - 26th 2014, after the failure of the apple iTunes update the iCloud update was installed. Ever since these 2 updates I am unable to open iTunes and I receive the following message: (need to reinstall iTunes application, APSDameon.exe and MISVCR80.dll cannot be found). I have tried reinstalling iTunes and cannot do so, I really do not want and cannot afford to restore my pc to a previous date because of new data on my PC. I am requesting assistance from support so that I can rectify this issue, thanks in advance for any assistance you may provide.Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
