Install itunes to a specific user only

I want to install itunes for a specific user only. Currently both users are administrators however i want the itunes/quicktime installation to reflect on 1 user only i.e. the one i intall it from. How can i do this? Is there a command line parameter that would allow me to install it for 'current user' only? Please advise.

Just change the installation path to somewhere in the other users account. The default is C:\Program Files\iTunes. You could change it to something like
C:\Users\accountname\iTunes. or something like that for vista. and
C:\Documents and Settings\accountname\iTunes. or something like that for XP.
accountname is the name of the account that you are trying to install itunes for.

Outlook error when collapsing groups on TS - specific users only - cleanviews and new profile didn't help.

We have a Citrix environment for app publishing.
Office 2007 is installed, and the users use the published outlook 2007.
For some users only(not all users), when they arrange by "from" and in-groups they get an error when they try and collapse groups.
Error is "There are no items to show in this view".
It does not affect all users.
Troubleshooting attempted:
Recreated user's profile. - No change
Made user an administrator
-Logged in locally
-ran outlook in safe-mode -> no change.
-ran cleanviews -> no change
There were no policies applied at the time, and there are no user specific configurations.
I can't find any other articles which might be pertinent. How should I troubleshoot this?

Hi,
One more thing you can try is to run Office Configuration Analyzer Tool to find if there is any error of the installation.
The tool provides a detailed report of your installed Office programs. This report includes many parameters about your Office program configuration. It also highlights known problems that are found when OffCAT scans your computer.

SYSADMIN - Assigning printer to a specific user only

Hello,
We use a specific printer for the purpose of printing checks. However, several times it has happened that users select this printer for printing other reports resulting in Spoiled checks.
We want to restrict only specific user to print on this check printer. Is it possible to assign printer to specific user and restrict others from using it.

There is no supported way to do this via the apps. Notes on metalink suggest to change the name of the printer to something to flag the user like "CHECKS ONLY" then assign a printer style to the printer. This causes the user to have to specify the print style when submitting a request.
Note 145070.1 illustrates this.

Disable upload for specific users only

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone else has found a need or solution to my problem.
I have a lot of users connecting to a FCS instance, many who should not be able to upload any content, just manipulate or otherwise interact with existing content. I've found that I can simply forbid access to all devices for a particular permission set, but that still allows users to "try" to upload, and is confusing. Further, it seems to hinder the duplicate functionality, which is desired in this use case.
Any thoughts? I'm running clean out of ideas here!
Thanks,
- James Heliker

John explained through an email to use the "browser" group - which essentially sets a trait permission (upload = forbid) for a specific user/set of users. However, this does not seem to change anything, as far as being able to upload a file.
I can't use the actual browser group as I have many other requirements also, but setting this trait permission on my existing groups does absolutely nothing as far as I can tell. Has anyone else dealt with this issue directly?
Thanks!

Installing Itunes for a Limited Account Only?

Bought my girlfriend an Ipod.
Had to install Itunes on my PC for her so created her an limited account.
Unfortunately Itunes installs itself across all accounts and not just hers.
Is there anyway it can be installed just on her account.
This is becuase:
1. I don't have an Ipod so don't want the Itunes installed on my account!
2. My account is mainly for playing MMORGs and therefore I have to manually keep stoping the services Itune installs!
Thanks in advance,

Network keeps stalling in itunes radio on specific stations only!!!!! Argh

Question!
Why is it that I'm unable to ever listen to specific radio stations on itunes? It consistently plays anywhere from a minute or less up to a few minutes and then starts reports stalling and rebuffers. This only happens on specific stations, in particular, ABF radio-electronic category-all bit streams, 192, 24,160. Can someone reply and let me know if there is anything I can do as far as maybe changing/tweaking settings or any other alternate solution. BTW, I have a PC and I'm using Windows XP, Media Center edition.

You can try adjusting the Buffer settings in iTunes Preferences -> Advanced tab -> "Streaming Buffer Size". Try each of the settings to see if changes the playback success.
But, the more likely cause is either that you're hitting a station that's using an under-powered server or your path to them on the Internet traverses some poor links. Nothing you can do about either of those issues.

We need to restict doc.type sa for specific users only

Hi,
we need to Restrict document type SA for Particular users i.e
1. they Should not allow to post SA document types .
2. But they allow to view the documents(SA types only)
Regards
Ganesh

Dear Tarimela,
1. In transaction OBA7, you should fill up the field for all the
   document types which you want to control. If it is left blank, then
   all the users will be able to post document with that document type.
   Hence, if user A is authorised to post to document type X and in
   the configuration of document type Y field authorisation group is
   left blank, then user A will be able to post document with document
   type Y.
2. Also you need to enable authorisation check in transaction PFCG and
need to assign the authorisation group in the profile.
3. I would recommend you to go through SAP notes 198238 and 150496 for the
   purpose of your information.
I hope this can help.

Windows explorer stopped working in a VDI environtment for a specific user only

Hi we have a VDI environment with a link clone image for all users. Only one user(admin1) login to the virtual desktop got this error, ....windows explorer stop working and requires restart it. it is the same issue after restart it, change a PC, change another
VDI client version,always same issue. Tried other users with these pc and client and has no issue at all. All use the same pool,same snapshot and same image. Windows 7 32bit OS. also tried to delete the profile folder and let it recreate it , it's redirected
to a file server. the folder can be seen created,but empty inside. other user profile all ok. this user admin1 is a domain administrator. It's property in AD shows an extra "delegation" tab and all else look the same as other account. Since other
users ok, I believe it's not VDI issue, should be this windows user profile issue. any advice please?Thanks
Thanks and best regards, -- KF

Hi,
Please first take a try to run SFC /Scannow command under the user account;
Further, we may take a try to fix the user profile through the steps mentioned in the below article:

For the error message about Windows Explorer has stopped working, here is a KB article talking about it:

Can not connect to iTune Store from 1 user only.

I have 2 user accounts on this computer. one is an admin account it connects fine. The other account will not connect. It says accessing iTune Store but nothing happens. One time it came up with "can not connect error (-50)"
Can anyone help me!

Well I got the iTunes store working. Not sure if this will work for you or not.
I logged in with my administrator account, went into System Preferences, selected Accounts, made the user that could not access the iTunes Store an administrator. I then logged in as that user, launched iTunes, and was able to connect to the iTunes Store (though it did seem to take an excessive amount of time the first time it connected). I shutdown iTunes, logged out of that user, went back into preferences, turned off Administrator rights for that user, and turned on any parental controls that were necessary.
I then logged in as the user again and iTunes was able to connect to the iTunes Store.
I was then able to sync his iPod Touch and download the 2.0 update without any problems.
Hope this works for you.

Can I set parental control on firefox for a specific user only?

I'm using windows 7 and firefox 18.0.2. On my PC I have my Admin account and my kids account. Now as they're coming to an age they're needing Internet access for projects and so on, I wonder if I can set parental control on firefox (by add-on?) as I have on windows, so that whenthey log on their account, firefox will only allow access to what I have allowed. That is, limit internet usage ONLY on their account, while I'll still be able to use firefox unrestrictedly. I don't want to have them use another browser that I' m not as familiar with just so I can set parental control on everything on that browser. Any ideas?

If you mean you want to block certain sites by some parental control software, you can try a web filter to block sites by URL or keywords.

Blue hue on monitor with specific user only

I was talking on Skype with my parents' PowerPC G5 while holding my 1-year old daughter. Everything was fine until she started hitting the keyboard. All of a sudden, everything on the screen turned a bluish hue. Everywhere I navigate on my mom's user account is this bluish hue, for example, on Safari, desktop, etc. When I switch to my father's account, the color is back to normal. I thought she might have loosened a cord or something, but everything's fine on my father's side. Does anyone know what my daughter might have done, and how I can fix it? Thanks.

Open Posting Period only for some specific user?

Dear all,
does someone have any idea, how could a posting period in ucmon be opened only for several specific user?
Is that possible?
Many thanks.

Edited by: hallochen on Sep 22, 2011 2:45 PM

Depending on the requirement
May be you can open it for a specific Cons Group(assuming User has authorization for that group) which translates back to opening it for specific user only
If user needs to work on more than 1 cons groups & has authorization then a step by step approach will help

Can I restrict itunes to just one user account in windows 7

Hi there,
I have just bought an iPhone and was wondering if it possible to set up two user accounts on my PC that are entirely separate from one another (OS Windows 7). The reason being is that I want to be able to use my iphone with iTunes on one account/partition, but I don't want iTunes to be at all evident on, or have any influence over, the other account: I use both an iPhone and a Creative MP3 player, so want to to keep my MP3s and WMAs synched with Windows Media Player, but I still want to be able to download apps, films and upload photos using my iphone through iTunes.
To illustrate, if I set up two user accounts on my computer - FRED and JANE for example - and install iTunes on FRED's profile only, will it also appear on JANE's profile? If so, is there anyway round this? If I can't achieve this through user accounts, can I do this by partitioning my hard drive into two and then setting up some kind of dual-boot process?
Many thanks in advance for any advice, I am perplexed by all of this!!

Just an update to the question that I presented when I started this thread.
You really never did say what type of a User Account you are using in your Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 on Windows 7? But based on the information provided by several users, User Account with Administrative Rights seems to be the way to go since all of them were using it and had systems that were running well. I would have expected that based on the Premiere Elements Windows XP requirements. I have yet to have someone come forward to say that they are using Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 on Windows 7 with a User Account with Standard Rights and the program is running well. Will you be that one?
Besides me switching from Windows XP to Windows 7 in the near future, what motivated this line of questioning was the report that I had seen of a user with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1on Windows 7 who was reporting "permission" error messages when trying to archive a project with the Project Archiver (Archiver "Trimmed" and Copy options). Further questioning brought out that the problem extended to the AutoSave feature as well. The user claimed to be saving to an external hard drive (formatted NTFS) with about 800 MB free space. And still further questioning brought out that the error message included a free space and/or permissions error. Yes, there were extremely large file sizes involved here (way over 4 GB)
The story had a happy ending where the remedies were:
1. User Account with Administrative Rights
and the major
2. Formatting the thought to be NTFS external hard drive from FAT32 to NTFS.

Can't install iTunes after deleting prior corrupted version of iTunes

Hi there, I'm hopeful someone can help me out with this vexing problem. I noticed after recently installing the newest version of Quicktime several weeks back that my iTunes would crash whenever I tried to open the iTunes Music Store. Growing weary of that issue and not being able to resolve it on my own after fully using Onyx, I decided to delete iTunes 6.0.4 and simply install it again. After I deleted the corrupted iTunes, I checked to make sure my music was still in its library (it was, but the icons had all changed to Quicktime icons) and then installed iTunes from downloading it from the Apple website.
I was able to download iTunes 6.0.4 from the website. I installed it and that seemed to go well and I then restarted the machine and then went into the Applications folder expecting to see the new iTunes icon there, but it was not! I did a Spotlight search for the new iTunes and it could not be found anywhere on the machine! I did not know how to explain/understand its failure to exist since I had gone through the complete installation procedure and then restarted the iMac, but, I thought I will just try it again and see what would happen. This time, I installed it from the iLife '06 DVD and again, the whole installation program ran fine and I then restarted the machine and opened up the App. folder expecting to see it, but, once again iTunes was missing. Spotlight still cannot locate the program. I know that I have correctly installed the darn thing at least twice but I can't seem to locate the program! Moreover, when I click on some of my music icons, the song will play through Quicktime, not iTunes...I just don't know what to make of this, can someone knowledgeable about iTunes please guide me through this mysterious re-installation process? Thank you very much for reading and hopefully lending a virtual had! Cheers, Mike in California

Although it looked like iTunes was installed, I doubt it was.
Your Spotlight search does confirm that.
Open ./Library/Receipts and trash the 'iTunesX.pkg' and the 'iTunesX 6.0.4.pkg' files.
Try installing iTunes again.
If you only install iTunes, there's no need to restart or even to log out and in.
After the installer is ready, take a look in your Applications folder.
I'm confident you will find the iTunes.app there.
Hope this helps.
