I want to use Native System Center Software Center Notification box or Windows Update dialogue box to force a reboot.

I'm installing software that will require a reboot. I would like to use the Windows Update dialogue box to prompt users to reboot.
Or a reboot dialogue box that mimics System Center Software Center Notification box
Does anyone know of a way to use the System Center Client notification or the Windows update box to force a reboot. This is familiar to my users and will not freak them out 

The Coretech Shutdown Tool is free, excellent and would satisfy your requirement.

    I really don't have an answer for that one. I guess that while trying to get things working correctly, I would use the most basic monitor I had which in your case would be the Eizon using the Thunderbolt port and adaptor.
    When you boot into Safe Mode the startup is quite slow, but you should get the Apple logo and then the spinning gear below it (release the SHIFT key when it appears.) Then after a little more time you should see a gray progress bar appear below the spinning gear. When that disappears the computer will startup to a login screen.

    Have you tried here:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    You can check your warranty coverage by entering the SN here:
    Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage
    For how to get warranty work see:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Service FAQ
    The fastest is to make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • A custom task sequence to install software is always listed as Operating System on Software Center

    Hello,
    I have built several custom task sequences to install software in SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 environment, but the type of task sequence is always listed as Operating System on the Software Center. I tried creating a simple task sequence (Task Sequence 1) that contains
    a single restart computer step only and tried deploying it to a test machine. This task sequence is also listed as Operating System. This task sequence fails because this is not the one for OS install and I do not specify a boot image for this task sequence.
    All task sequences that I have created in SCCM 2012 RTM environment are working as expected. All task sequences that I create in SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 are listed as Operating System regardless of its actual type (I upgraded my environment from CM2012 RTM to CM2012
    R2 CU1 last month).
    Here is a test task sequence that contains a single step of restart computer. This is not Operating System install but listed as Operating System. Any thoughts?

    If you use OSD steps in your task sequence you will get this prompt.
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/3eb7569c-0b5a-4b40-86c3-d4f092c70aca/task-sequence-warning?forum=configmanagerosd
    Per Mikko:
    Using any of following steps (and possibly others as well, I did not check all of them) will change the task sequence type from generic to OSD:
    General - Join Domain or Workgroup
    General - Restart Computer (Only "The boot image assigned to this task sequence" option)
    Disks - Format and Partition Disk
    User State - Request State Store
    User State - Release State Store
    Images - Apply Operating System Image
    Images - Setup Windows and ConfigMgr

  • I want to use migration asst to transfer stuff from our old Windows...what do I not want to transfer?

    QuickBooks for Mac has been available again since at least 2004 (Intuit before that had done nothing with it for years). The current version is QB for Mac 2014. It's pretty much the same price no matter where you look.
    The Mac version data is not directly compatible with the Windows version. Sending your data out to your business tax accountant and getting it back in is not at all easy. It's such a pain, our accountant comes here to finalize the books at year end.
    There is still also a lot of Windows features for QB Pro which have never been added to the Mac version. They're all on the higher end side that larger businesses would need. I've never run into anything with the Mac version I couldn't do.
    If your accountant wants ease of data transfer, then you'd be better off purchasing Snow Leopard Server and run that in Parallels. Then run the Windows version of QB in that.

  • Lenovo Solution Center does not sense or allow Windows Update after Windows 10 upgrade

    Also see: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-A-B-C-N-S-Flex-and/Lenovo-Solution-Center-says-Windows-Update-needed-Windows-10/m-p/2136161#M6832 I'm having exactly the same issue as the user who started the thread linked above. After installing Windows 10 (and having no particular issues with the installation), LSC won't leave me alone about needing to run Windows Update. But when I click the Launch button provided, nothing happens. LSC is also recommending I update drivers and things, but the link provided to the Lenovo website also doesn't work. I had to run Windows Update and find the updated drivers on the Lenovo site myself. I happen to have a G505s, but the issue is obviously not restricted to one model.

    Maybe a Lenovo server is down. Check again later or tomorrow.
    Of course it might be that your firewall or other protection software is blocking the application from communicating with the Lenovo server...

  • HP Photosmart 5515 all-in-one not detected by HP software, driver not found by Windows Update

    Hi,
    I have Windows 7 64 bits and an HP Photosmart 5515.
    I had to reformat my PC, and when I tried to install the printer, Windows Update recognized it, but couldn't find the appropriate drivers, while the HP software didn't find the printer, neither with the IP address nor the Hostname.
    The printer is connected to the network, and is working perfectly (we are able to print on my wife's computer), but on mine it's not possible to connect it.
    I've tried both the Full Feature Software Package:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-108875-3&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...

    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-108878-3&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
    Is it possible to just download an "old school" driver so I can use it straight from the Device Manager in Windows 7?

  • [OAM] Want to use custom System Error page and OOTB logout page simultaneously

    Hi,
    I have developed a custom OAM System Error screen (Error.jsp). To do that, I took oamcustompages.war from the installation directory, create Error.jsp and deploy it on oam_server1 server. After that, I run the updateCustomPages(extension="jsp", context="/oamcustompages") on wlst. This works fine.
    But now, if I invoke xxxx/oam/server/logout I have the following:
    <html><head><title>302 Moved Temporarily</title></head>
    <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
    <p>This document you requested has moved temporarily.</p>
    <p>It's now at <a href="http://lablnx246:8888/URLWeb/oamcustompages/pages/Logout.jsp">http://lablnx246:8888/URLWeb/oamcustompages/pages/Logout.jsp</a>.</p>
    </body></html>
    So.. it appears that all pages ootb have been replaced by the custom war. Is there any way to only let Error.jsp active and other pages be called OOTB?
    Thanks!

    The updateCustomPages will change the default OOTB behaviour
    If you do not want this, you can leverage the Success URL/Failure URL configuration in the Authentication policy and point it to the custom error handler

  • I want to use this thing as just a backup device for windows computers but don't have a Mac - can I use this in that way ? I am not interested in using the wireless portion jut wired ethernet.

    I have multiple iOS devices and a couple of Windows XP Professional PCs, but I want to get a Time Capsule to use just to backup the Windows PCs now.
    In the future I want to get a Mac and get rid of the windows PCs and then I will use Time Machine. I just want to know if I can use the Time Capsule now for wired backups ??? I plan on using Norton Ghost and don't need Time Machine nor do I have a Mac to use it. Should I forget this idea ? I plan on buying a Mac in the future and use this drive in the regular Apple manner. Please help !

    The format of the disk is a Mac format. but that is irrelevant in a NAS device, as long as it offers SMB.. ie windows file network format.. you don't have to worry in the least how the files are stored on the drive.
    But you cannot partition a TC.. it is as it is..
    I have some iOS devices in addition including an AppleTV. Could this TC serve them as well as the Windows XP Pro PCs without having a Mac in my inventory ? (No time Machine.)
    What are you expecting to serve to the iOS devices.. they are completely dumb.. they don't even know what the file system is without an APP.. and there is no Apple Format apps only SMB.. which is kind of interesting.
    They are designed to work with iTunes.. but the TC is not an iTunes server strangely as lots of non-Apple products manage to make their NAS into ITunes servers. You can place the iTunes library on the TC but we don't recommend it due to the TC having no automated way to back itself up.. again unlike every other NAS out there. You can manually backup the TC via the USB.. it is slow and can only backup the whole disk.. even if you backed up the whole disk yesterday.. it has no ability to do incremental rsync or any other intelligent backup.

  • The earlier version of FF brought all my previously open sites back after a system shut down (like for a scheduled windows update or similar). Now this is not happening any longer. What can I do? I liked this feature a lot and really miss it!!

    I could choose to have all my previously open tabs brought back when the computer - accidentally or on a scheduled update - suddenly closed down. Sometimes I have windows open for several days with articles and sites that I spent time with finding. Now they are all gone and I have to painstakingly try to get them back.
    Is it my mistake? I can't find any selection or choice in the tools menu that I could reinstate this useful function with. What happened?

    hello; i just erased the post i started with, because my status has changed. i searched in the firefox folder and found the uninstall folder, and this time, uninstall worked perfectly, and it gave me an option to save my personal info! YAY! i installed ff 3.6.24 without a hitch; FF is Baaaaaack!
    However, I did get a window saying my computer doesn't have enough resources for the latest version of 8, but that I should install the latest compatible version of firefox; which version would that be, I wonder? It takes me to the same page with the ff 3.6.24 downloads. I already have that now.
    I am going to mark this as solved; thank you cor-el for helping me with this problem and sticking with me as i whined and moaned, and tried to get the courage to "just do it!"

    you do need to know how to use your C compiler... It quite clearly can't find those files which indicates that you didn't tell it where to find them.
