Menu items dropped for different Windows user

TestStand 3.5, LV 8.2
I have a fellow engineer who logs into the Windows/XP Pro test system with his own user ID.
We are both in the Windows Administrator Group.
When he logs into the computer and starts TestStand, he does not see the same menus as me.
The Configuration menu is missing three items :
Report Options ...
DataBase Options ...
Model Options ...
Why?

Hi Checkers18,
Are they missing or greyed out? Also, please send an equivalent screenshot to the one I attached. It should look the same (all values set to true).
Cheers,

Differnt interface languages for different windows users

I'd like to set one language for a windows user account and another language for different account. I install Firefox localized by one language and add second one's pack. But the pack is not working. And if I reinstall Fitefox localized by second language on second account I receive one localization on both accounts.
Firefox 6.0 & Windows 7

Mmmm... I think you need to do a little coding. I'd create a table that would contain USER - Languaje. Then in the home page (or wherever) I'd call a plsql (that the user will not notice) that would use portal apis to check the language. If the language is not the same as the user has assigned in the table then the page will reload with the appropiate language. It is pretty mucha what portal does but without making the user clikck on the language. Hope it helps. Regards, Mere.

Make a menu item that changes the window

Since I am always changing the interface of Brandsonic Web, I would like to make a menu item that would allow the user to change the window to a window they like. The structure of the app is I have 3 different windows objects and I would like a way to change between them with a menu item choice. How do I go about doing this? Thanks!

Click on the Menu bar and go to View . Or, hover over where the Menu bar shiuld be and click on it when it appears. Try quitting and relaunching Finder.

Run Labview as different windows user (for database connectivity)

I have to connect to a corporate remote MSSQL-Database on the network, using the database connectivity toolkit for LabVIEW.
The db-authentification is realized checking the windows user (ads) who acceses the datebase (not a database user / password which is standard in the database vis)
Therefore I have to run LabVIEW as the defined windows user, different than the logged in user on the pc.
Is that possible to realize with LabVIEW?
Other Windows-tools allow to define the windows user/password which "run" an application - how can I do that with LabVIEW?

Hi Zav. There is a windows command 'runas' which _may_ let you do what you want; I haven't
tried what you need to do, but is has worked for other tasks for us. Try 'runas /?' for the switches.
You will have to build your LV program into an executable, then use runas to launch it. Is there
a reason you can't just login to Windows as the required user?
If you can get your db admin to allow dbuser/password authentication that would be a much better
way to go.

I am using Windows 8 with iTunes. How do I manage iTunes with two different Windows User Accounts?

I have recently bought a laptop running Windows 8 and downloaded iTunes. I subscribe to iTunes Match and have a large amount of purchased music and imported CDs, along with some films purchased from iTunes.
I have downloaded all of the music and the films to the laptop using iTunes Match when logged in under my User Account in Windows 8. However, when we switch to my girlfriend's User Account, she can load up iTunes but all the music and films have the cloud symbol on them indicating that they need to be downloaded
Is is necessary to download everything to the computer twice (I can't really believe this is the answer) or are we missing something in terms of using iTunes with two different User Accounts?
Thank you.

Step 1
Create a new user account on your device. For Mac users, choose “System Preferences” from the Apple Menu and navigate to the “View” menu. Click on “Accounts” and select the “+” button to add a new user account to your machine. Edit the user information and grant any relevant privileges by following the on-screen prompts.
For Windows users, click on the Windows "Start" button, select “Control Panel” and choose “Add or Remove User Accounts.” A new window will open. Click “Create a New Account.” Name the account and set any relevant privileges by following the on-screen prompts.
Step 2
Sign in to the new user account you created.
Step 3
Open iTunes and click “Sign in.” Enter your Apple ID and password and log in.
Step 4
Download purchases through the iTunes store. All files related to these purchases are stored under the separate user account, thus separating both iTunes accounts and their libraries on the same computer.
Step 5
You can share music from both libraries by dragging your music library to a publicly accessible location on your computer. Click “Preferences” from the iTunes menu and deselect “Copy files to iTunes Media Library when adding to library file.” Add the shared folder to your library from the “File” menu.
Tip
Create more than one library from the same user account by deselecting “Copy files to iTunes Media Library when adding to library file” from the “Preferences” menu. Add the files you want to iTunes by dragging and dropping or by opening from the “File” menu and sync your device to that library. Quit iTunes after the sync and reopen iTunes while holding the "Shift" key in Windows or the "Option" key on a Mac.

All menu items greyed out, no window

For some reason, when I startup my Remote Desktop v3.0, I don't get the main window, and all of my menu items are greyed out. Has anyone ever experienced this?

I've never seen the scenario you describe... but here's an idea. It kind of sounds like Remote Desktop isn't finishing the "start up" process.
There are actually two "com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist" files. One in <user>/Library/Preferences which contains all of your user information, and one in /Library/Preferences which contains License information.
Try deleting the one in /Library/Preferences and launching Remote Desktop. This should cause it to bring up the serial number entry panel. Type in your serial number, and continue on.
Maybe that will make it happy.

HT1203 iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer - I tried to use the instructions to configure 2 different windows users sharing the same iTunes library. I could not get this to work per the instructions.

I tried to configure 2 windows users accounts using a single library per the instructions in HT1203. My iTunes library is on an external drive. I cannot get this to work. Any suggestions?

To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support article linked below.
iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

One library for 2 windows user accounts

I am having and issue and I don't understand why apple made the software this way. I have itunes installed on my pc and I built a library but when I logged into my wifes account and ran itunes it was as if i was running itunes for the first time on my pc. so now there was 2 library's so made a single folder on directly on the hard drive so it comes up as c:/itunes music library and would not be directly linked to either user account and thus I would be able to turn on Auto update and it we would be able to just plug in the ipod no matter who was logged in and it would update but it does't work. anytime I select auto update feature and I just want to auto update playlists only it says it's linked to a differnt library and stuff, but it's not
why can't this work seemlessly

It was designed that way so people with vastly different tastes in music wouldn't have to sort through a bunch of music they don't like.
You can keep the actual music files in one place on the hard drive, but have different library itl files for only the music you like in each Windows user profile.
These articles might explain things a bit better

How To Share Music Between Different Accounts On A Single Computer

Unable to have same library from two different windows user accounts

I recently spent about a week organizing and getting info correct on all my "millions" of songs. All of my music is in my itunes music folder, and organized.
I went over to my wife's windows user profile, and on itunes the library was incomplete. so i used the "add folder to library" function, to update her library to include all of the songs in the itunes music folder. It worked fine. but when i went back to my windows user profile, i got the "original file could not be found" message, on the majority of my songs. as a quick fix I deleted my library and used the "add folder to library" function, to update.
now I get the "original file could not be found" message on her library.
the files don't move, the just are not recognized by itunes on more than one "side" of windows.
it goes back and forth like this.
how can i get itunes on both windows user profiles linked to the same library, or pointed in the same place?
thanks for the help

If I understand correctly, your library file is the good one.
The default path in XP is
C:\Documents and Settings\ username \My Documents\My Music\iTunes
Try this article about multiple libraries, and see if you can open your library in her account:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/7.6/en/15502.html
You will need to brwose to the path in your account. She needs enough windows privileges to read/write it.
She'll need full access if you're on Vista, and it will be a sightly different path.

Runtime.exec() for different Windows versions ?

Hello all.
I'm currently developing a Java program that uses Runtime.exec() to launch a MS-DOS application (the old MS-Kermit). It works fine under Windows ME and Java 1.3.1 but the very same code fails to work under Windows 2000. That's very bad for me, since my program should work on all windows platforms from 95 up to XP (and NT).
My question is : can I trust Runtime.exec() or am I damned to write different versions of the same command for different operating systems ?
Thanks.

Runtime is not os independent, so yes, it has to accomodate the os differences. There is an enhancement request on the subject, tho.
Search the forums, there is code that handles the differences posted.

Group Items showing for different lengths of time

I have created a group of check and x-marks to indicate correct and incorrect answers. The check mark and X-mark are both smart shapes. In my advanced actions, I hide the group and then show either a check or X-mark after the answers have been submitted. The advanced actions are written as, " show X-mark" and "Hide Check Mark" and vice versa. But when I preview the slide the check mark only stays by the correct answers for 3 seconds, and the X-marks remain.
Any ideas as to why two items in a group would display for different lengths of time?

Lieve, was the timeline okay or did you need more? One thing that was different about the check marks, I noticed, was that they were set as "Use as button". I unchecked that box for each of the 72 check marks that are on my slides. I think that I got them all. However, they are still each linked to 24 Object style manager Smart Shapes which will help me position them three at a time. I don't see anything in the Object style manager that has a setting that might affect the length that they stay visible.

When will Apple resolve the lost album artwork saga for Mac/Windows Users?

Hello,
I'm running Windows XP, although this problem appears to be both OS- and platform-independent. I've read several forums within and outside the Apple Support site that describe issues around lost album artwork.
In a nutshell, iTunes loses artwork that was manually obtained/added (and also iTunes-downloaded). I know I can right-click lost albums for downloaded music, but this is annoying because I have thousands of albums (or single songs from albums) and I don't want to constantly reload the information. It's even more aggravating because a large portion of my music collection consists of rare albums, and it's not unusual for me to spend significant time finding a single cover.
I've tried some tips described in the forums, but it really comes down to users asking: Can Apple please acknowledge that this is a broad v8.x.x issue and commit to resolving it in an official release?
Artwork coverflow-style viewing is a huge part of the music experience to me. I LOVE iTunes, but not if using it means that I'll constantly be frustrated and worried about data loss. I'm loyal to iTunes and don't want to leave, but I'm already looking at other players.
Apple - We're begging you. Can you please fix this?
Thanks

Hello ! This is a user chat board - you can provide feedback to Apple via itunes menu > Help > Provide iTunes Feedback.
My artwork doesn't get lost, so I wonder what is different on your PC? I've embedded the artwork in the MP3 tags, and they are ID3 v2.3.
You might check your Windows Media Player settings. The default settings get info from the internet and can change things without you ever 'running' WMP. Then the next time you look at a file in iTunes, it is changed - so it seems iTunes did it.
It's in 3 places in WMP - general, privacy, and library tabs.
If you are talking about itunes store downloaded artwork going missing, that's a different matter. I think not, since you mentioned rare albums - presumably not sold in iTS, so therefore not downloaded from iTS.
