Microsoft Security Updates
I would like to block a particular MS security update, KB3008923. How do I do that using GPO? Or is there a betting way?
Please help!!
Thank you,
Jason
Hi,
>>Or is there an easy way to block it via GPO?
I agree with Idan that there is no group policy setting which can help us do this. Besides, regarding WSUS, the following link can be referred to for more information.

Loss of FN-Keys after installation of Microsoft security updates on L500
I'm using a satellite L500-19U
After installation of Microsoft security updates the FN keys lost their functin except the Brightness + / - function.
also the soft keys which appear at the upper monitor border by pressing the FN key didn't appear after the security packages were installed.
I solved The problem by removing the update by means of the roll-back function (Wiederherstellungs punkt) of W7.
The following security packages are selected to be installed:
Security update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB978601)
Security update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB979309)
Security update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB979683)
Security update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB980232)
Security update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB981332)

If you read about these update on the Microsoft site: (Non of them should influence on FN-Keys)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=998164b7-4b8c-468b-8d39-f242633c8838
I have checked the history of updates on my computer and all of them are installed except for Windows MRT x64 - April 2010 (KB890830) (malicoius software removal tool). Everything works fine, try to remove this update. -

Critical Microsoft security update this am, now missing 1.5 mos emails
When I started up the MacBook Pro this morning there was a message to install a critical security update for Office/Outlook 2011. I started the download and closed all programs (except finder). The update completed successfully. When I restarted Outlook 2011, I found that the last month and a half of email messages I had saved, including responses still in my sent items folder, as well as yet unprocessed inbox items going back a week or so...all had vanished. Iʻve spent most of this afternoon searching apple and microsoft support discussion groups for clues, finding nothing definitive. It turns out there are FOUR identity files: main identity, main identity backup 11/1/11, 11/1/11 identity, and 11/1/11 identity backup. If I recall correctly, there was an Outlook data problem in late October, and at that time I found a Microsoft knowledge base article that led me through the steps of creating the 11/1/11 identity. Having found the folder containing all identity files, Iʻm not sure what to do with each; thereʻs only me and I only want one. Ideally, I could rebuild each one, then export data from each one; then set the 11/1/11 identity as default; then open Outlook and import the exported data files into this identity one by one...using a setting option to not import duplicates. HOWEVER, in previous years on Windows computers I did exactly this filtered importing into Outlook but dupes (and sometimes, triplicates) were created regardless. The chore of manually deleting the dupes takes hours and is mind-numbing; I donʻt want to have to do this again! So Iʻm gunshy. I hope thereʻs a more experienced and technically informed user who can guide me to the least time-consuming solution. By the way, apple support could not assist me with the file structure/location(s) for Microsoft Office Outlook on the Mac. In order to run a backup of last nightʻs shutdown Outlook data file from time machine, I need to know the filename and the file location path. Iʻm reluctant to phone Microsoft support, wait in line, and have to pay $60 plus for this information.
Yes, I had (eventually) done that yesterday. The final solution was to forward to myself the inbox items in each of two nonprimary identities (they came in while I was exploring to "map the territory" yesterday), immediately shutting down Outlook and changing to the next identity so no further current emails would be download to my MacBook Pro (this step was not documented anywhere on apple or microsoft support, I just tried it and it worked). I had located the identity files location, and determined which identity was my most recent primary one. Since the one on my computer had been corrupted by the security update, I located the last backup before shutting down the night before on Time Machine, restored it, and set it as default. Then I deleted all the "bad" identities to avoid confusion in the future. Upon restarting Outlook, my two "transport" emails downloaded from my third party spam filter server. I opened each, reviewed the attached emails, and moved the ones I wanted to examine further to the inbox on my computer. Then I deleted these two "transport" emails. There may be a few incoming emails from early yesterday morning that I have lost permanently, but by and large I have recovered all of my data, including what had been the missing 1 1/2 monthsʻ worth, via this somewhat trial-and-error, very time-consuming procedure.

I have Microsoft Office 2004 on my MacBook (2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo). It is currently up to date with Microsoft updates. I am running Mac OS 10.6.8. I just updated my Mac software with "Security Update 2012-001". I am now unable to print (Epson NX510 printer) from Excel or Word. When I click on the Print menu item in Excel, there is a flash in the background like it is trying to open the print window, but nothing else. I am able to print from other programs like TextEdit, Mail or KakeidaGraph. As far as I know I have the latest Epson print driver.
Also, I am also unable to open an existing Excel or Word file from the open menu - both programs lock up and do not respond. I have to force quit. After I restart Excel or Word I can open an existing file by double clicking on the file, but if I again try to open another file from the open menu, Excel or Word lock up.
Any similar problems?Howdy,
Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
You might wish to read:
http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
- You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
- Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
- Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
- Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.

Microsoft's Security Update kills iTunes if on a Domain Server!
Do You Use iTunes at work? Is your computer logged in to a Domain Server? Did you just update your computer with Microsoft’s latest Security Patch (as of 1/6/06)?
Then you might have a problem. I’m sure that Microsoft will probably figure out a way to fix this someday, but for now, iTunes will no longer function for you in this scenario. The problem is that iTunes needs to access your My Music Folder. If your domain server is set up like the one I use, then your My Music folder resides in you’re My Documents folder, which lives on a Domain Server, not on the computer in front of you. This was not a problem before this patch. Now, something that Microsoft’s security patch did has blocked iTunes from being able to access the folder on the Domain Server.
Now, if you were like me, you updated your Computer Friday with the new security patch and shut it down for the weekend to save out planet’s energy resources. Monday, you powered up your computer and started to work. At some point, you thought you might like to hear a tune. You clicked on the iTunes shortcut and BAM! You got a bad message:
No matter what you did, you could not launch iTunes. Don’t even try it, nothing will help, unless you follow the steps below. I should note that these steps were discovered by using Apple’s info at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302398. The problem with their steps is that you can’t even find you’re My Music folder with Tweak UI after the security update if it’s on a Domain Server.
This Discovery is attributed to one R. Crippen. His love for iTunes drove him away from his onus of real work so he could spend time breaking Microsoft’s attempted sabotage of iTunes.
Here we go.
1. Download and install Tweak UI from the Microsoft PowerToys website at http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx Note: This utility is for Windows XP only.
2. Launch Tweak UI. In the column on the left, click on the plus symbol next to My Computer and select Special Folders. Look in the Folder list in the Right Pane. You will notice that My Music is not in the list. Close Tweak UI.
3. Open Add/Remove Programs and check the box for “Show Updates.” Find the latest Security Update in the list. Select it and click Remove. Reboot after the update is removed.
4. Create a new location where you would like the My Music folder to live. I made an iTunes folder at the root level of my C drive. Put it anywhere you like (not on the Domain Server).
5. Go to your My Documents folder. Copy the My Music folder to the new location you picked for it.
6. Launch Tweak UI. In the column on the left, click on the plus symbol next to My Computer and select Special Folders. Look in the Folder list in the Right Pane. You will notice that My Music is now in the list.
7. Select My Music in the drop-down list. Click the Change Locations button. Select the new location and click OK.
8. OK, now that Windows will be looking in a new location for the My Music folder, Launch iTunes. If everything went well, it works!
9. You’re not done yet. That Security patch was probably put out there for a reason. Update your computer and reinstall the latest security patch again. You can probably find the Windows Update link at the top of your Programs list.
10. Reboot the computer after the update.
11. Launch itunes
12. Everything works! You have an updated computer on the Domain Server and iTunes works again! Yay!
Stupid Microsoft!
Dell 9100 Windows XP Pro
Dell 9100 Windows XP ProI'm still keeping an eye out for more cases like the 2 I've seen myself. I need a bigger testing audience, but I don't think the circumstances are very common.
So, your work computer is on a Domain. Is your "My Documents" folder on your Domain Server or is it on your local computer? That's where the problem arises, when itunes can't access the "My Music" where the itunes folder lives.
Since my "My Music" folder in the My Documents folder was living on a server and not my local computer, something prevented iTunes from communicating with it. I know that the security update was the culprit, because once I uninstalled the update, iTunes worked again.
Hopefully, I can find more cases of the problem just to verify. I just hope that is anyone else runs into the issue, this will help them. If it's a real issue.

MS14-055 security update for Microsoft Lync Server 2010
hello
after applying this security update do I need to Apply it to the back end database? or is that just when regular patches are applied?Hi totalnet32,
From http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2493736, we know that
"After you install the update for the Core Components server role on a Lync Server 2010 Enterprise Edition front end server, the updated SQL database files are dropped to the computer that has the Core Components server role installed.This
also applies to a Lync Server 2010 Standard Edition server. To apply the database changes, run the following cmdlets:
Install-CsDatabase -Update -ConfiguredDatabases -SqlServerFqdn <EEBE.Fqdn> -UseDefaultSqlPaths

(https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2982388/ )

MS14-055: Description of the security update for Microsoft Lync Server 2010 (Security update for Standard/Enterprise edition Server): September 23, 2014
There's no Core Components server role update, as far as my experience, the DB update is not required.
And I suggest that reboot the Lync Servers once after the updates have been installed.
