Is it possible to set up device channels in Team site if I activate publishing feature?

Hi All,
Is it possible to create device channels for my team site. I inadvertently created this as team instead of Publishing site. Please advise.
Dinesh

Hi Dinesh,
If you want to access SharePoint 2013 out-of-box device channel then it requires SharePoint Publishing Features at site collection, please enable SharePoint
Server publishing site infrastructure in team site
Other Approach:
Device channel work with "User Agent Strings", you can read browser user agent string at run time and apply custom master page/CSS, however you need to do customize master page/CSS for all devices
The User Agent String as I’m sure we all know identifies which browser you are using to connect with it is sent from the Client to the Server within the initial headers and contains certain tokens like Operating System, Browser, etc.

Device Channels neither working on SharePoint Online nor OnPrem

I already posted this issue on Office365 forum but considering the urgency of the task I am posting this issues over here as well.
Its about device channels and setting up device channels requires very simple configurations but unfortunately I couldnt make it work.On the SharePoint Online I followed the procedure as give
below:
1. Created a copy of Seatle Master page using SharePoint 2013 designer and added some text in it body to make it little different from the original seatle (I checked it in and published it and verified that it works).
2. Then created a device channel from the SharePoint Online Site setting and provided the Name of the Device channel i.e. "MobileDevices", Alias, Description, Device Inclusion rules for Windows Phone 8 as follows:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows Phone 8.0; Trident/6.0; IEMobile/10.0; ARM; Touch; NOKIA; Lumia 920
Also tried the following separately:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows Phone OS 8.0; Trident/6.0; IEMobile/10.0; ARM; Touch; NOKIA; Lumia 1520
and then:
Android
$FALLBACKMOBILEUSERAGENTS;
Windows Phone
3. To get Master pages setting, activated the "SharePoint Server publishing feature" from both Site features and Site collection features.
4. On the Master page settings page, I set my custom master page for the device channel that I already created.I also tried Oslo here and also tried oslo in Default
To test that I browsed the site with the query string:
https://Company.sharepoint.com/teams/default.aspx?DeviceChannel=MobileDevices
and also used the Internet Explorer's emulator for windows phone 8 but unfortunately this did not work and the right master page did not show up.
I also used my Android device here but the right master page appear.
Moreover I also deactivated the "Wiki Page Home Page" feature. Furthermore I tried doing the same on my SharePoint 2013
Dev VM (Local single server farm) but to no avail.
The problem seems like there is some issue with switching to the right master page or the device is not recognized. May
be I am missing so configuration. I would really appreciate if anyone could assist me in solving this issues
If you need any further info, I will happily provide that.

Hi Vhyder,
I have seen the thread that you posted in Office 365 forum, the thread is answered.
The solution is creating a Publishing site instead of creating a team site and activating the publishing features.
The thread is:

As your issue is solved, I will mark the reply as anwser to close this case.

IOS 7 has remove the unlock sound for the apple devices? Is it possible to set it back?

iOS 7 has remove the unlock sound for the apple devices? Is it possible to set it back?

ATV cannot play movies from the TC, even if it is on your home network.. ATV is a streamer.. it is not a media player.. and the TC is a dumb as a board hard disk in a router.. so it has nothing in it either.
You cannot play movies from ATV without itunes, which streams to the ATV.
If the iMac is running 24/7 then you should be able to connect to the iMac remotely and run from iTunes on that, which could then play movies stored on the TC.. with the following issues.. if you use wireless on the iMac forget it. The iMac has to be ethernet connected as it has to pick up the movie on the library and play it back to the TC to network to your home.
The next issues is speed of slowest connection.
Your download to your home maybe great.. what is the upload speed from your office like??
If you pay for uploads and downloads you will pay for the movie 3x.. first to download it.. second to upload it.. office to net.. and third to download it again.. net to home.. Sorry but it is better to play the movie directly from online itunes store.
If you plan to try and play non-itunes movies over the connection, it won't work.. ATV as stated is linked to itunes and cannot play movie files.
Overall this sounds like you need to think it out a bit more.

Having issues with custom master pages and device channels

I'm working in Sharepoint 2013 and am attempting to create a custom master page that is to be used by mobile devices. I have created an html file and a custom css file that includes snippets from the design manager. The file appears to preview fine in a
browser from Microsoft Web Expression. I have loaded the html file into sharepoint via design manager, so the master file is there as well. The css files are in the style library for the site collection and I have created a device channel including user agent
strings for iphones going back to the iPhone 4 and operating systems going back to iOS 6. I have obviously assigned my custom "mobile" master for that device channel and I have turned off mobile browsing. However when I open the site on my phone
it shows the normal full desktop view and not my custom master. I will include my html code, my css and a screenshot of my device channel below. Please help!

User agent strings for mobile Channel

Hi,
The issue is likely not your HTML Master Page but your user agent string. Try a user agent string of just "iphone". To test your master page, you could also set the user agent to "MSIE", which should cause this master page to load for
any version of IE. This will help you debug the master page as well in your normal browser.

Is it possible to set up a bootable external hard drive

Is it possible to set up an external hard drive by copying my system folders, etc from my Ibook to my firewire drive??? If not is there a way to do it w./o the system DVD

Hi matthew,
first of all: WELCOME TO THE DISCUSSIONS!
Yes, it is possible, but you need certain devices and software. You cannot create a bootable external device with drag&drop only.
In order to get a bootable hard disk you have to buy a firewire disk (USB is not a bootable inteerface with MacOS X). Then you have to make a bootable clone from your internal hard disk to the external. You can use backup utilities such as Carbon Copy Cloner to achieve this.

Is it possible to set up my iPhone 5 as a new phone and sync ONLY my contacts and apps from my iPhone 4?

Is it possible to set up my iPhone 5 as a new phone and sync ONLY my contacts and apps from my iPhone 4? Or do I have to set up my iPhone 5 by using my iPhone 4 backup (I'd rather not)?

Contacts are not stored in a backup, so a restore will not bring them in. Contacts, along with all the other Apple databases (log into icloud.com with a browser and look at the various pages - this is what I call the Apple databases) are contained in their own locations on the servers. You should be able to take a new device, go to Settings>iCloud, log in to the icloud account, then turn on the services (e.g. contacts) you want to sync. They will then be synced to the device. That has nothing to do with a restore and with the old iphone 4. As for apps, their listing and locations on the screens are stored in a backup. If you don't restore, then go to the itunes app store, look under Purchased Apps and download them again.

Is that possible to set up a multiple y-axis and single x-axis in one waveformchart (in LabVIEW 8.0)?

Hello!
Is that possible to set up a multiple y-axis and single x-axis in one waveform chart using LabVIEW 8.0?
Because I need to display several channels in the same chart, if one channel has a very big data range and the others not, the channels with smaller data range will not be displayed very clear.
Thanks!

Is it possible to set up parental control in MultiPoint Server 2012?

Hello everyone!
Is it possible to set up parental control in MultiPoint Server 2012. I'd like to filter adult web sites.
Kind regards,
Pavel

I found an issue with Multipoint Dashboard that when student select to signout and then select "Cancel" to signout to go back to the session, the Multipoint Dashboard filtering is no longer applied to the session.
here is the scenario -
- Student login to the Multipoint server using the end point device as an standard user.
- The Multipoint Dashboard has the configuration to "limit the website to all desktop". "cnn.com" only
- The student session, limits the use of the web browser to only to cnn.com - this is working.
- Studen open an app like notepad - click save --> prompted him to where to save the file.
do not save the file. leave the "Save as" windows open.
- Click Start (left bottom corner)
- Click the account’s name on the top right corner, Click Sign Out
- It will prompt you with a warning that there is a file open and needs to be saved
- "Signout anyway" or "Cancel"
- student select to "Cancel"
- He is now back to the session
This will allow the student/account logged in to bypass the web filtering

FaceTime set Output Device

Hi guys,
this question is not specifically related to Yosemite or Handsoff, but I noticed it the first time trying to make phone calls via FaceTime.
I got a iPhone 5s and a MacBook Pro Retina (Early 2013) – both updated to the latest OS version.
I was trying to use the new feature of iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite to make a phone call via the iPhone.
I've connected a 2.1 Soundsystem via Belkin Dock to my Mac and also a USB Headset.
FaceTime has the possibility to set the audio input device only for this app, but not the output device.
I would like to change the output device for any FaceTime calls (via iPhone or Internet) to the USB headset.
Is there a chance to set the audio in/output device app specific?
I think that it is a common problem, as I cannot imagine that anyone would use the build-in microphone and speakers in any office?!
Of course I searched for the problem, but didn't find anything useful.
Kind regards
caldi

You can get only a single document preview, I think. I have never tried, but I don´t think that is possible.
What you see is not the second document preview, but the last document in the batch, is that right?
You can experiment with the form bundling (bundling the forms when sending them to ADS improves performance), but I don´t think that will help.
Why do you need to do this "mass preview" anyway? Maybe you should create a tool to help the user display these preview. I am close to HR and can imagine a tool, which is used for mass personal profile forms. I would create a simple report, where you click on the line and get the document preview/ profile of the selected person.
Imho if you do the "mass" print/ generation, your task is to be fast and you target on the printer. If you work with a single form, then it is like "user-oriented".

Device Channel for IE8

I set up a device channel for IE8 and used the user-agent below for Device Inclusion Rules:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; GTB7.5; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; InfoPath.2)
I assigned a different master page for it in Site Master Page Settings (I just assigned Seattle as I have a custom master page for Default). When I tried to load the site in IE8 it's still using the default masterpage and not Seattle. Is there any step I
might be missing?

Hi,
Based on your description, my understanding is that Device Channel for IE8 is not working.
I referred to the following article, created a device channel for IE8 (use the
Device Inclusion Rules which you have offered) and I reproduced your issue.
http://jussionsharepoint.com/targeting-multiple-browsers-and-devices-in-sharepoint-2013-using-device-channels/
At last, I solved the issue by using the following tool to check my IE8 Agent string. Refer to the screenshot:
So use the following tool to check whether your Device Inclusion Rules is right.

Detect current device channel from code behind

From
MSDN article about device channels:
Also, device channels can set a JavaScript variable called effectiveDeviceChannel that contains the current channel alias. This variable can be used to show which channel is currently being used.
Is there similar variable, that could be used in code behind (in C#), to determine which channel is currently used?

You can use DeviceChannelPanel in your web part...
For e.g. the following in a visual web part will render only to a channel that is targetted for tablets.
<Publishing:DeviceChannelPanel runat="server" ID="pnlTab" IncludedChannels="Tab">
    You can see this tab devices.
</Publishing:DeviceChannelPanel>
From code behind, you can create a device channel panel dynamically and add contents to it.
e.g.
            LiteralControl l = new LiteralControl();
            l.Text += "Sample content for tablets";
            DeviceChannelPanel dp = new DeviceChannelPanel();
            dp.Controls.Add(l);
            dp.IncludedChannels = "Tab";
            MyPanel.Controls.Add(dp);

Hi I have two questions. I am using NAS 4.1 and was wondering is it possible to set a different session timeout for different users? How is the session timeout set? Thanks, YS

<i>I am using NAS 4.1 and was wondering is it possible to set a different session timeout for different users?</i>
Um, there is no such thing as NAS4.1.
I'm assuming that you mean NAS4.0 (maybe NAS4.0sp1?). If so, then the session timeouts are specified in the session section of the NTV configuration files.
AFAIK, you can specify session timeouts on a per user basis.

Is it possible to set up multiple iTunes accounts on a single computer?

is it possible to set up multiple iTunes accounts on a single computer?

If you do it with a single user account, you will receive update notifications for purchase made on both IDs regardless of which one you're using at the time. That's slightly frustrating as you get the notification BUT you can't actually update! In any event, separate user accounts on the computer is the cleaner way to go.
