Moving AutoText to Other PC's

Hello All,
I have a client that utilizes autotext. They need to update them and distribute them to everybody in the office. However, each user has a slightly different normal.dot that they have set up, and if things change ever so slightly, they freak out. So copying
the normal.dot of the host machine to each PC is out of the question.
Is there an easy way to copy all of the autotext contents and transfer it to a new template? Everything I've found online is confusing and I'm not sure explains how to do what I want to do.
Any suggestions are appreciated!

Copying the normal template to someone else's machine and overwriting their own is not recommended.
AutoText is stored in templates.
You can move the desired AutoText to a separate
Global Template  which is then stored in each user's
Startup Folder
In Word 2007-2013 copying AutoText is probably most easily done using Greg Maxey's Building Blocks Enhanced Tools (free download).

  • HT6030 Having major Mail problems since I updated Maverick on my 27" iMac. Delays deleting emails and moving emails to other folders. Anyone else having this issue? If so, any known fixes?

    I have an iMac that around 3 years old. Just installed Mavericks when it first was released. I also have a Time Capsule (2TB) that runs my network to my other three Apple devices: iPad2, iPhone 5s and a new Apple TV. Having major Mail issues here. Everything is very delayed and extremely slow. Moving emails to other folders sometimes takes a few minutes and the same goes for deleting emails. Delete them and they don't go into the trash for several minutes. It's getting very frustrating to say the least. Mail also quits very often. Mail also will freeze with the little color ball spinning, therefore I would have to force quit Mail. When the errors occur, it's automatically sent to Apple but there hasn't been an update since 10.9.1 that has fixed it. Apparently, that update was only for gmail issues. Anyone having the same problem? Fixes please?

    I have my entire network and all Apple devices setup as IMAP, not POP. If your settings are setup as a POP account on all devices, emails will not erase when deleted on your other devices. Just something to keep in mind. I'm sure you're aware of this but just wanted to throw it out there. Google IMAP vs POP. However, it seems like your having the same issues as I am. I'm going to swing by an Apple store by me and speak to the genius bar and see if they can come up with something or are aware of this issue. Keep you posted.

  • ITunes Fix for Manually Moving Music and other Media

    Intro
    Any iTunes 7.x user who manages their own music library outside of the "iTunes Music" folder might be able to tell you that iTunes DOES NOT respond well after manually moving tracks from one place to another on their computer systems. In fact, any file you move becomes immediately unplayable in iTunes. And, if you're anything like I am, losing several years worth of song rating metadata and playlists is not a good incentive for change. However, one thing others might not be able to tell you is that there's an easy workaround for the problem and you get to keep your playlists, ratings and other info. Read on to learn about the workaround.
    About the Workaround
    The workaround is a simple hack I devised after recently transferring a good portion of my music library between hard disks and running into problems with iTunes. The fix steps provided below are intended to circumvent the problems with iTunes and give users the freedom to move songs and other media files on their computers while maintaining the integrity of both the ratings and the playlists. Meaning you won't need to manually update the song locations in iTunes one-at-a-time, which, at version 7.02 is the only way to accomplish this task using the program.
    Please be aware that not all information is retained using this workaround. What will be lost are the following: the "Recently Added", "Recently Played" and "Top 25 Most Played" iTunes Smart Playlists; any media file play counts; last played information; and possibly some other data used only internally by iTunes.
    So, if you're comfortable parting with some metadata while keeping your cherished song ratings and playlists intact during file relocation, read on to learn how to use the workaround.
    Workaround Steps
    The following instructions walk step-by-step through the process of this workaround.
    Note: All backslashes used in file paths have been converted to forward slashes so that they will adhere with MySpace XSS security validation checks. These altered paths can still be copy/paste into Windows Vista's Explorer program once the Username is changed to the User Account where the iTunes files reside.
    Preparing for the Move
    Before you move your files, do the following:
    1. Close iTunes.
    2. Create a backup copy of the following files:
    iTunes Library XML (iTunes Music Library.xml)
    Note: Vista users can find the Library XML at C:/Users/Username/Music/iTunes
    iTunes Music Database (iTunes Library.itl)
    Note: Vista users can find the Music Database at C:/Users/Username/Music/iTunes
    Moving Your Files
    This part should be self explanatory, but while you do it make sure to note the following two things:
    1. The path where the files were previously stored (e.g. D:/Music).
    2. The path where the files will end up (e.g. E:/Music).
    Execute the Fix
    After your files are moved, complete the following steps to implement the fix.
    Note: Do not open iTunes during this process.
    Hack the iTunes Library XML
    Once the files are moved the Library XML file locations will be out of sync. Follow the steps below to update them so that they now reference the correct file locations.
    1. Open the iTunes Library XML with a Text Editor with a Find/Replace function.
    Note: Vista users can find the Library XML at C:/Users/Username/Music/iTunes
    Tip: Do not try to do this with Dreamweaver if your Library XML is greater than 10MB.
    2. Perform a Find/Replace using the following inputs:
    Find: Path from Step 1 of Moving Your Files
    Replace: Path from Step 2 of Moving Your Files
    3. Confirm your results, and then save and close the Library XML.
    Delete the iTunes Music Database
    Hacking the iTunes Library isn't enough to fool iTunes. Like the Library XML, the Music Database also holds the file locations of all of the media stored within the program. And it's smart enough to wipe out the Library XML hack if iTunes is opened before completing this step.
    Ensure you have backed up the iTunes Music Database (iTunes Library.itl) and delete the file.
    Note: Vista users can find the Music Database at C:/Users/Username/Music/iTunes
    Back in iTunes
    Once the fix is in place you can now open iTunes again. You will notice that all of your playlists, music and other items have vanished. In order to recover them all (with the exception of the Smart Playlists mentioned in the About the Workaround section above) we'll need to import the hacked Library XML file back into iTunes.
    1. Open iTunes and press CtrlShiftO or go to File > Import…
    2. Navigate to and Open your modified Library XML (as pictured below).
    3. iTunes will then begin importing the contents of the XML file (as pictured below).
    Note: This process may take a while, depending on the size if your library.
    Wrapping Up
    Once the import process is complete iTunes will look almost exactly the way you left it, with the exception that some playlists have been duplicated and the number of songs may be a hair off. To fix this problem delete any duplicate playlists in the "Library" panel in iTunes. You can now test out the changes by selecting an item moved earlier and testing it out. All that's left from there is to let iTunes perform any automated analysis it needs to do and rock on.
      Other OS  

    Holy Smokes:
    I appreciate your detailed workaround post. My question is this: I use iTunes to keep everything organized (though I'm well aware of the shortcomings...) and can use the simple solution that Chris from CA posted, but I don't have room to consolidate everything. My read on consolidating is that you copy from wherever you have your music located (and right now my music is outside of the MyMusic/iTunes folder, as that backs up to my work server) and so you have to have enough room for all of your music to be copied (and then you delete it from its prior location). That's how Apple describes it in, e.g., http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301748. I ain't go that kind of room. Is there any way to make the move to a completely different PC by following the simple option? From the posting I just linked it sounds like you MUST consolidate whether you use you iPod to move things or use an external drive.
    Of course, I can use your workaround, but I thought I'd ask first. Many thanks.

  • Moving documents to other document library using content organizer rule

    Hi Team,<o:p></o:p>
    I have created a content organizer rule to move documents from one document library to another.<o:p></o:p>
    I have two document libraries say Doc A and Doc B, where Doc A is a source library (where I will upload the documents) and a folder Fol 1 in Doc B is a target destination (where document should
    be moved). I got to know from one of the other posts is, Doc A should be involved in any of the content organizer rules to be able to move documents to Doc B.<o:p></o:p>
    Right now, I have not created any content organizer rule to involve Doc A. And, a folder Fol1 in Doc B is a target destination for my content organizer rule.<o:p></o:p>
    1. I have uploaded a document in Doc A and by using "Send To" command, I have send it to Doc B. This document properties fulfills content organizer rule condition. But still it stays
    inside Doc B only, and not moved to folder Fol1 automatically (which is expected, I hope so)<o:p></o:p>
    2. Now if I again update the properties of the document, it will still be inside Doc B only and not moved inside Fol1 <o:p></o:p>
    3. I have opened Doc B in File explorer using "Open with Explorer" command and copied a document inside Doc B. Now after refreshing Doc B, even though the newly added document fulfills
    the content organizer rule condition, it is not moved inside Fol1 automatically (which it should, I suppose)<o:p></o:p>
    Can you please help me with the queries above?<o:p></o:p>
    Many thanks up-front for your help and support.<o:p></o:p>
    Just for an FYI: The rule which I created is to check whether the document title is not Empty. If it is
    not, condition will be true.<o:p></o:p>

  • Moving windows to other 'Spaces' on a Mac

    Hi everybody,
    I've found a couple of annoying little things in using CS4 compared to CS3, the main one being that I can no longer move windows between the OS Spaces like you used to.
    I click on the header, type the shortcut for the space I want to move to, and the screen goes to that space but the window doesn't go with me.
    Does anyone know how I fix this?

    I've tried that and I can move the windows across that way fine ... which is a big help, thanks.
    It still won't work the other way though, so has anyone else had problems moving them across with the shortcut?

  • I have two personal .mac email addresses. One moved to iCloud, other cannot (stuck in loop).

    I have 2 email addresses from .mac.
    One moved over fine and has been running with icloud. The other is stuck in a loop.
    i try to sign into icloud with the second account. It says "to sign in, move the account to icloud. i click 'get started" It sends me to mobile and it says closed. it auto bounces me to a page that says "Congratulations!" you can now use *********@me.com and mac.com but it's my OTHER working icloud account NOT the email address i am trying to add an icloud account for.
    I cannot see any way to add it to my existing icloud account.
    I tried to delete it from my mac and re-add it as an icloud account. It tells me to move it..... (i did)
    Do I make an icloud account for the second .mac address as well, or somehow add it to my current working icloud account?
    i also have an ipad and iphone waiting for proper configuration. Everything worked on all devices untim mobilme shut down

    You mention that you're using 2 computers, are they running different OSX ? The OSX v 10.7...
    must be okay I'd assume. The System Requirements for older than Leopard ( OSX v 10.4 thru
    10.5 ) may be problematic. I'm having that particular problem. When you log onto .me or .mac
    seeking iCloud ( or direct URL) and encounter that " moved" sign, there is a Status button in
    the far left corner of your screen. Click there and determine your Online Status, if that's fine
    you've done the right thing during your update. It could be that your older Browser, Email settings
    or simply the OS does not sync to deliver ino to your (?) older Mac/OS. Keep trying here for a
    expert opinion as I am here for my quiry but edit your question above to include those
    parameters ( settings, syst req, etc ). Someone more knowledgeable will help.

  • Moving Tablespaces and other data-Objects to another HD

    Hi,
    XE is running on Win XP Pro SP2 here. It installs the datafiles on C:\ too. That's no proper solution because system loss could cause data loss in a bad crash.
    Otherwise in managed enviroments often the sytemdrive will be autmatically cleaned for new desktop solutions.
    Is there some experience about moving the tablespaces /moving the datafiles to another HD/Partition?
    Doing this on 10g with EMGC is an easy job.
    But how does this work on XE?
    thx for respone
    regards
    Franz

    You can not move tablespaces. They are logical units that do not have a location. The required space allocation for a tabelespace is through one or more datafiles.
    There is no problem moving data files to another drive. Effectively you
    1) shutdown the database
    2) copy the data file to the new location
    3) Update (not edit) the control files to point to the new data file.
    Step 3 is done by bringing up the database into 'control files are available and read into memory, but data files are not available' (the 'Mount' state) and issuing the ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE ... command.
    Details, with examples in the 10gR2 DBA manual http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/dfiles.htm#i1106090, at Chapter 9 in the Renaming and Relocating Datafiles section.

  • Moving music from other websites to iTunes...

    Two ways depending on your setup,
    If iTunes is your default internet audio player the file will be downloaded into iTunes automatically from the website.
    (Look at Edit-Preferences-advanced and click the SET button beside Use iTUnes for internet music playback)
    However if you just want to download the file to another location and import it into iTunes.
    Download file
    In itunes select file - add to library and navigate to your downloaded file
    You can also drag and drop the file into itunes library window

  • Moving Music to other computer on Itunes.

    I am buying my son a 13" Macbook and I have all his music and my music on my Itunes on my computer. I am trying to find out how he can move his music over from my computer to his laptop.
    I would be very greatful for any informations about this,
    Thanks and Merry Christmas!

    If both computers have a firewire port, you can do the following. If so then start your computer in Target Disk mode and copy over your entire music library to your new MacBook's music library.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    Move all of your music on the new mac to a different directory to be safe.
    Connect the computers via firewire and start up the old computer in Target Disk mode.
    Copy over your entire library from the old mac to the new mac into the Music folder (unless you changed the default location of you music files). Make sure you copy over the iTunes library file (xml file)too. In iTunes you may have to select the library file for it to recognize the file structure.
    There is also a migration manager assistant which moves your files from one mac to another - but I have never used it. It may copy over all of your files from one mac to the other.
    hope this helps

  • How to change clip speed w/o moving all the other clips in a sequence?

    when I have many clips in a sequence and try to change the speed of a clip (which changes the length) FCE automatically shifts all the following clips. is there a way to turn this feature off?

    Not in FCE. FCP 7 has that feature.
    Think about it; when you speed up a clip, the duration is shorter, therefore the clip is shorter. When you slow down a clip, the duration lengthens, therefore the clip is longer. How would FCE know that you don't want the clip to remain the same duration?
    You'll need to trim the clip accordingly based on the amount of speed adjustment you want.

  • Moving objects and other shapes or groups of shapes in Illustrator to exact placement!

    HI,
    I am trying to move objects with the mouse to an exact place(grouped objects) within my document, how do i go about doing this?
    I have snap to point turned off, but everytime i try to click and drag to either overlap and object onto another, so it sits in line and that way i can delete remaining shapes around this, it wont let me, i move it, and then it quickly moves like half a cen centimeter to the left???
    I have zoomed in and tried doing it at this view but still the same.
    It is very frustrating, does anyone know why this is happening, or could help us.
    Also snap to point is not turned off and it's not the first time this has happened!
    Thankyou so much in advance!

    What happens if you move an object with the arrow keys, just one hit?
    It could be a matter of corrupt preferences.
    You may try the following and see whether it helps:
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer;
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup;
    4) Move the folder with Illy closed;
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options, especially the usual suspects in item 7.
