MDT 2012 Toggle Multicast On And Off At Will?
Since multicast is so much slower than our normal deployment, it is more of a problem than it is worth unless we are doing more than a handful of computers simultaneously.
Can we disable it without having to update the deployment share and recreate boot media each time?
We would rather just keep it off normally and when we have many to do and then turn it off again when the large group of PCs is complete.
How many do you image at a time? You might not need multicast at all, but if you do need it try:
Scheduled-Cast. This option sets the start criteria for the transmission based on the number of clients that are requesting an image and/or a specific day and time.
Then you can have multicast only kick in when enough clients at once are requesting an image.
If this post is helpful please vote it as Helpful or click Mark for answer.
Won't that just cause the machines to sit doing nothing until the required number of clients connect before the deployment starts?
I don't see how it would automatically change between unicast and multicast on the fly.
If it can do that, that would be great, but I can't find anything that says that is part of the functionality..

Is there a way to toggle Spaces on and off?
I don't mean enabling it/disabling it in System Preferences.
When you hit F8 (F8+fn on a MacBook) or use a hot corner, you first see all your Spaces and you can switch between them. But unlike Expose, hitting F8 again or using the hot corner does not send you back to the regular workspace (i.e., the single desktop with all open applications). I find Spaces useful, but I also like to revert to the normal view at times and would like to be able to do this without starting System Preferences and disabling Spaces.
Basically, I want to know how to make Spaces behave more like Expose. Apple Help does not address this and I can't find any discussions or support articles on it. Is it something simple I'm missing?
Thank you!I don't quite understand you either.
If you press F8 to show the spaces view and then press F8 again, it should take you back to the single space you were originally in.
Does yours not do this? -
Extremely difficult now to toggle switches on and off in settings in iOS6, on multiple devices, iP5, 4S, 4 and new iPad. Are others finding the same issue?
I solved this by reset of the Wifi (unplug cable and power to both modem and wifi ... wait 60 sec ... plug in modem cable and power ... plug in wifi power and LAN to modem ... restart AppleTV and Mac ... Turn Home Share 'OFF' in iTunes then back "ON" ... it took ~60 sec for the AppleTV to pick up my Mac in computers.

I can't remember how to toggle my Instacalc on and off using the keyboard. I got it free from the app store, I have a 13" MacBook Air, Yosemite. I must have got the instruction somewhere but I can't remember, could anyone help me please.
Hi. Try this: From the iTunes Store front page, scroll to the bottom of the page. In the bottom left corner there should be a flag, in this case the French flag, click it and you 'll be presented with a screen to select the correct country.

My iphone 4, the apple logo just blank on and off.
You may have to let the battery fully drain
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How can you toggle H264 on and off in a NetStream?
Hello. Let's say you have the following code that switches your stream to use H264:
var h264Settings:H264VideoStreamSettings = new H264VideoStreamSettings();
h264Settings.setProfileLevel(H264Profile.BASELINE, H264Level.LEVEL_2);
stream.videoStreamSettings = h264Settings;
Let's say you want the user to be able to keep clicking a button that will switch the stream back and forth between this and its default, non-H264 settings. How can you do this? I don't want to recreate the NetStream or have multiple NetStreams or anything else really sloppy like that. I tried looking up the videoStreamSettings property in the main docoumentation for a NetStream (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/NetStream.htm l), but they don't even formally list it for some reason. Thanks!There is no way, other than your current approach, to do this.

Apple Tv, just turns on and off, it will not fully load.
I will try to load it up, apple logo comes on and then the yellow light starts blinking and it resets itself. Worried that I may have a bad hard drive. Any help would be amazing!
Thanks,Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

How do I fix it?
Take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
If those 5 steps don't fix it, the iPhone will need service. -
Windows 7 Image Deployment Failed in HP model D530 using MDT 2012 and ADK 8.0
Hi,
I need your help to sort out the following issue.
I have installed MDT 2012 +ADK 8.0 and created Windows 7 32 bit OS from CD in the deployment share and tried deploying the raw OS from Deployment Share in to a reference machine (HP D530) ,the deployment failed also couldn't able to capture
Image from the machine,even the sysprep failed. This is the error
Your PC needs to restart.
Please hold down the power button.
Error Code:0x0000005D
Parameters:
0x030F0209
0x746E6547
0X49656E69
0X6C65746E
So tried the same in another HP machine ,the deployment was success and also was able to capture the refrence machine.
Need your help to find why this error occurred in this specific HP model D530 alone. Is it the reason that ADK was not supported in that specific model.
D530 is the maximum available HW model in client environment so your help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in Advance!!I have never seen that error before (see identical post). I did a quick internet search and found the following:
http://optimizewindows8.wordpress.com/2013/03/26/how-to-fix-error-code-0x0000005d/
Either:
1) Upgrade your machines with modern processors that support the ADK.
or
2) Downgrade to the WAIK

I am unable to connect my Macbook air, iPhone or iPad though bluetooth. I have tried all the suggestions I have read. i.e. toggle bluetooth on and off, turn devices on and off, forget devices and then pair. I seem to be able to pair but the devices immediately go to not connected and a message appears that reads: make sure devices are turned on and in range.
Pairing the phone with the car is one thing, but paring to the computer is not generally supported. Tethering is using the cellular data access from the phone for the other devices. It is part of Personal Hotspot. If you aren't aware of what it is, then it probably is something you do not use.
As far as the car is concerned, what is not working? Does the car not see the phone, or the phone see the car, or after you start to pair something fails? If you provide more information about the problem and what you have tried to do to correct it, then we can offer some solutions. What version of the iPhone, what iOS, and what year and make of vehicle? -
50L3400U has no ClearScan 120Hz ON and Off feature.
I bought this Toshiba 50L3400U in May 2014 and I'm very picky when it comes down to features functionality, I did a picture calibration, I tweaked all the settings to my likings, updated the tv's firmware.. But I noticed when I watch sports or a fast pace movie, I see refresh rate issues.. so I go back to the menu and turn Cinema Mode On, however I do not find that it makes any difference, whether is On or off.. Also the ClearScan feature is not in the menus.. I want to know how to get 120Hz without using "ClearScan" because is not in the menus, yet its advertised on the box and on the website as an ON and Off feature that anyone have access too from the menus.. I researched the web and read some where that ClearScan turns ON when you turn Cinema Mode ON ... But my gripe is, when I turn Cinema Mode ON it doesnt do anything.. its the same as if was off .. I toggle between ON and Off with no results.. This model needs some software updates to add the ClearScan 120Hz feature to the menu and enable Cinema Mode..
Solved!
Go to Solution.This may sound the same as my previous comment, and I agreed with what you said but I want to know if my Toshiba 50L3400U led tv has this feature as some call it the "Soap Opera effect" .. its when you're watching a movie and is as if you're watching a "Reality TV Show" or a "Soap Opera" it removes that shade of gray effect that movies tend to have and makes it look smoother.. Some people dont like this (Soap Opera effect) feature because they claim that movies look fake.. but somehow I enjoy and like this feature.. I was convinced that by enabling ClearScan (which is nowhere to be found) it would make things smoother ..so clean that by watching a movie I was going to get that Soap Opera effect that so many TV's have these days .. In fact on this website it claims that this TV has ClearScan 120hz on the main menu as a On and Off feature, a separate feature of its own.. a feature that would enable to double the refresh rate thru hardware processing. I also noticed by enabling "Cinema Mode" On ..I dont see that it makes any changes, whether I watch a movie on blu ray, Netflix, HBO, ShowTime etc.. Yet my neighbor is watching a random movie on a random channel on a diff brand tv, I can see the "Soap Opera Effect".. As some claim that "ClearScan 120hz" is within Cinema Mode .. why not make it simple with a software or firmware update, just add a dropbox, by clicking on Cinema Mode a dropbox open, Click ClearScan to enable if you so desire. Because as of now Cinema Mode and " if " ClearScan is under Cinema Mode when enable they're not making any changes nor diff no matter what I use to watch movies on... Thanks for replying.. feedback from other forum members are also welcome..

WDS & MDT 2012 Integration Questions: Do I need an install image on WDS if I'm multicasting from MDT
I'm running WDS & MDT 2012 on Server 2012 for my deployment solution. I have a few questions about what happens when you integrate WDS & MDT.
Perhaps this is a simple question, but if WDS multicasts the installation image from MDT, do I need to have an image in the installation folder of WDS? I have the "Enable multicasting" box checked whenever I update my deployment share
Also, my server is running X64 architecture, so I have the x64 WAIK installed. but I'm having issues editing the unattend.xml on my server because my images are all X86. Keeping in mind that I already have the X64 WAIK installed, can i install
the X86 WAIK tools on my server?Sorry, that's two questions you only get one... Just kidding...
FOr MDT, you don't import the images into the WDS console, you just need to add a Multicast namespace.

AS for the unattend.xml edit issue, that is known:

Sound toggles on and off when I hit the "0" key on a 2010 Mac Mini.
Whenever I hit the zero key on an Apple keyboard using a 2010 Mac Mini, the sound toggles on and off. It does not happen when I use the keyboard with a 2012 Macbook Pro. There can be times when the sound toggles when I am not even typing. I upgraded to Mountasin Lion, but this did not resoilbve the issue. I have disabled remote control.
Thanks to all for your help.Hi John,
That's often a sign of a bsad Capacitor in the Power Supply, but...
Might be time to replace the PRAM Battery, 4 years is close to their lifespan, far less if ever without AC power, & can cause strange startup problems...

MDT 2012 deploy OS from USB external drive failed - need to unplug and plug it once again
We are using MDT 2012 and deploying Windows 7 using media (USB external hard drive). We can successfully deploy Windows 7 32 bit using this method but there is a problem with deploying Windows 7 64bit. This problem appears only on HP EliteBook 840. We can
boot into WinPE 64 bit and can start proper task sequence, all image is applied then after restart, before logon screen appears there is an error saying that cannot find litetouch.vbs script. After clicking ok, I can logon to Windows and there is no usb external
drive recognized. But when I unplug and plug usb drive once again it is recognized by Windows and can be used. I can see that Windows install some drivers just after plug it again
I checked BIOS looking for some USB power options - there is no such settings. And 32 bit deployment works ok. So this is not a case. Looks for me like a problem with proper usb drivers for 64 bit. I download all drivers from HP website (driver pack and
drivers only for USB 3.0). We are using make and model matching in MDT - works ok for all the rest hardware models. Any idea how to troubleshoot it?Not sure what's going on here. Is this a USB "Flash" drive or a USB "Hard Drive". There *Is* a distinction.
I *thought* that MDT would copy itself to the c:\minint\scripts folder to continue installation.
Next time, when you see this error, Press Shift-F10 to get into a cmd.exe prompt. Can you find litetouch.vbs on any of the drives? Does the USB Drive appear?
IF in fact, the USB Drive is not appearing after the 1st reboot, then you have a problem. Why did the USB 3.0 driver not install. Check the Driver Installation Logs to verify.
