Modifying User Presets

I'm having some trouble with the Presets feature in Workgroup Manager, my understanding was that I could configure some settings for a group of users (Dock Prefs, Allowable Applications etc) and apply that to the users.
Every time I added a new users I would apply the specific preset and all would work fine, now I want to edit that preset and apply it back to the same users but it just isnt working. Does the current preset only work when creating a user?
I've edited my preset, gone to a user and made sure the preset is selected but the changes I made don't appear when I click on Preferences they're just the old ones. When I change the preset to None the old preferences are still there and when I change the preset back to the one I want to apply no changes are made.
Are preset's only applied when the user is created or am I doing something wrong?
Seems silly that I can't make changes to a large number of users.
I even went into an individual users preferences turned off all the preference changes I made and applied the preset but no changes were made to the preferences. I'm stuck!

Yeah, as you discovered, presets are only for creating new users with pre-defined home directories and mail settings and such; they don't have anything to do with preference management.
When managing preferences, the easiest way by far is to use groups (as you found). Note, though, that you can also select more than one user at a time (Shift- or Command-click), or more than one group at a time, when setting prefs.

  • After 10.1.2 upgrade, Create/Modify User/Group requires re-authentication

    I have 3 systems - 2 were 9.x (AS10g R1) upgraded to 10.x (AS10g R2), 1 was installed as 10.x. On the two upgraded systems, after a Portal user logs in (with administration privileges), navigates to the "Administration" tab and clicks either the "Create New User", "Modify User", "Create New Group" or "Modify Group" links, they are prompted for a username and password again. On the system installed with 10.x, this does not happen. Submitted iTar was unresolved. Has anyone seen this before?
    Thanks in advance.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • OIM 11g Modify User Profile for Updating End Date

    Hi Gurus!
    We have an OIM implementation where users may request the creation of other users by means of a Create User request template. In this template we set the End Date to be 3 months after the request date.
    In order for the requester to extend the period of a user's OIM user account (along with its provisioned resources) we customized a Modify User Profile by displaying the End Date field and automatically populate it again to 3 months after the request date. Also we developed a custom event handler to enable the user when it is disabled and the End Date is updated to a future date.
    This Modify User Profile is working great when the user is still enabled (the End Date is still in the future), however, when the End Date has passed (and the user is Disabled) the requester is not able to see the user when selecting the Modify User Profile request template.
    Is there a way to allow requesters to also see disabled users in the Modify User Profile request template?
    Thank you in advance.
    Regards,

    Hi Kevin,
    thanks for your reply!
    But, in this case, when the user is already disabled due to his End Date, how can a requester, through the Self Service TAB, enable it?
    The Enable User request template does not work since when trying to enable the user, OIM sees the End Date is already passed and the DataSet validation throws an exception.
    The only way I saw was providing a Modify User Profile Request template to change the End Date and developing a custom event handler to enable the user upon the extension of the End Date...
    How can, in this situation, a requester enable the user and extend its End Date?
    Thank you!
    Regards,

  • Can approver modify user's request form in OIM 11g?

    If can, how can i configure it?

    Hi user12841694,
    Thanks for the suggestion. But, the data (field) that can be modified by the approver is very limited. We cannot attach multi-valued attribute there (like Child Form).

  • User Presets not saved correctly

    I am trying to set up specific 3 User Presets to export files to a given file location.
    But when I return to user presets LR only shows *one* of the 3 locations used and that is set against each of the 3 presets.
    Q: This looks like a bug, as I cannot seem to save the different file locations to a different user preset... or am I doing something wrong ?
    (LR 5.6 on Mac OS 10.9)

    Even I try to Right Click the preset and use the UPDATE WITH CURRENT SETTINGS, this is not working.
    I'm really puzzled by this.

  • Why can't I create a new user preset?

    Hi there,
    I recently got Adobe Lightroom 5 - upgraded to 5.6 but I can't seem to be able to make a new user preset. I have tried re-installing the program and upgrade but nothing seems to work. I've also clicked 'create' several times with the preset named 'test' but the preset is nowhere to be found.
    I was previously using Adobe Camera Raw in Photoshop CS 5 but decided to switch over because I read about the ease of use of Lightroom. Would appreciate some help on this.
    Kindly advise, thanks in advance!

    You are talking about the forward, back, mail and trash can icons in the Notes App - correct?
    I've gone through restarting it and followed the instructions from the person last week.
    Have you restarted the iPad - is that what you mean? Have you quit and then restarted the app? Quit the app, and restart the iPad. It's worth a try.
    Double tap the home button and your recent apps will appear at the bottom. Hold down on the Notes app icon until it begins to wiggle. Then tap the minus sign to quit the app. Then tap the screen. Now restart the iPad.
    Carolyn explained this above (restart) but here it is again....
    Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logos appears then let go of the button and the iPad will restart. See if that helps.

  • User presets from history panel

    Hi there
    I lost my hard drive and have reinstalled LR4 and relocated files to the external hard drive. I can see the user presets I used in the history panel but not in the User presets menu, is there any way to 'find' these to use again. I have looked but cannot find my User Presets anywhere.
    Thanks
    Nat

    Thank you, that was the problem.  They were checked as stored with catalog in LR5, but not in LR6.  Once I clicked the checkbox in LR6, I found all my export user presets.  Now I assume that if I subsequently uncheck that box, LR6 will create a unique file to house those presets?  Does it matter if they are or are not in the catalog?  I've got a decent grasp of LR's functionality, but wasn't aware of this and don't know if there are pluses or minuses with either approach...

  • User Presets Gone From LR4 But Show in LR5

    My user presets do not appear in LR4 since I installed the LR5 Beta, but they do show up in LR5.  How do I get them back into LR4?

    Try this: In Preferences / Presets tab / Location either uncheck the box <Store presets with this catalog>, or check it if it is unchecked.

  • User presets missing.

    User presets not rendering in the LR2 app. They are still in the folders though.  What do I need to do to get them to show in the application again?
    I realize I need to upgrade, but it's not in the budget now.  Have restarted the machine to no avail.
    I have not used the app in a month, but the last time I used it, the presets were all available in the drop-down menus on the develop module.  ??

    Have you by any chance recently selected the option on the Preferences>Presets Tab to "Store Presets with Catalog". If so, uncheck it and see if your user presets appear again. If you're not sure, toggle that switch off and on (or on and off) and see if it makes a difference (Presets will appear/disappear instantly when toggling that switch).

  • Saved user presets in "drummer"

    Hi
    a few but not all saved "user presets "have disappeared in the "drummer" folders
    anyone else experienced this??
    thanks

    Ans 1 - The User Presets folder is shared across all versions of Lightroom, so there's normally no reason why you would need to do anything after an upgrade.
    Ans 2 - Yes, moving from one OS to another means you have a few hurdles to jump. Install Lr3 on your Mac then copy the Catalog and Previews across to the Mac. When you launch Lr3 on the Mac it will create an new default Template/Preset folder named "Lightroom" at /Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/Adobe/ Next, copy the entire Lightroom Template/Preset folder from the PC to the Mac, thus replacing the original. Relaunch Lr3 and the old presets should now be accessible.  

  • User presets not working after LR5 upgrade

    Just updated from LR3 to LR5 and my user presets are not working. They are visible, but do not do anything when clicked. How do I fix this?

    We have found the same thing. Patch 5 and 7 did not fix the problem. We even got a preliminary patch 8 that did not fix the problem.
    We're still hoping for an EBF.

  • Unable to modify user password through OAM identity system console.

    HI,
    I am trying to reset the password of a user through OAM Identity console.
    I had logged in through orcladmin(admin), and tried to update the password for users, as well as orcladmin also.
    After clicking save, its giving me error "Modify User Entry Failed" and password is not updated in LDAP
    Also note that I am able to modify any other attribute of that user like last name, title, firstname etc through identity console.
    Its only user password attribute which is not geting updated.
    I am user OVD, which is integrated with OID & AD for user store.
    Also I tried to set "Access Attribute control" for modifying user password, but that didnt help.
    Kinldy suggest if you have came across this kind of issue.
    Regards,
    Ankit.

    HI,
    Thanks for the replies.
    As my OVD is integrated with OID & AD both, I am picking up the users from OID for update.
    Also the SSL is configured betveen OVD & AD, but still AD user password is also not successfull.
    Niether of two is working.
    I am not able to create a user through Identity System console, as I had not configured workfllow.
    I believe for updating user attibute, workflow defination need not to be define.
    Also As I had mentioned before, I am able to modify all the other attributes other than user password.
    Also Schema is extended properly.
    Thanks & Regards,
