Moving Users looses their contacts

I am planning on moving all users to a new container. Last week I moved
a user and she lost all her contacts. Is there any way to avoid this? We
are running 2.0.4 on OES2 SP1.
Thanks,
John

Mail folders after moving user to LDAP from Local

I originally setup our server with Local users, rather than LDAP. Now, we need to move everyone over (for a variety of reasons). I'm basically doing the following for each user:
Export individual Mail/Contacts/Calendars
Turn off Mail/Calendars/Contacts in Server app
Delete Local User
Create LDAP user with the same UserID in Workgroup Manager
Check all services for the user under User Access in Server app
Turn on Mail/Calendars/Contacts
Import individual Mail/Contacts/Calendars back into the apps on the client machine
This works up until I try to reimport emails. I get the error that the "mailbox already exists". This makes me think it's associating the userID with the old email folder on the Server. The problem is I don't know how to either reassociate the user with their old emails, or to remove them. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Here is what happened:
Original User's Document files were NOT stored under the User Name as they should have been. The User Name doc file was almost empty. (Nov 2007 thru Aug 1 2008). The main Documents folder was located in the Macintosh HD folder (not in User folder).
User Name Account got corrupt and new User Name had to be created. The Documents Folder was moved to this Account. (Aug 1, 2008)
Time Machine was not backing up the iMac because the New User had to set up TM. On Aug 4, 2008, TM was turned on and began backing up the computer AGAIN (thus process took several hours).
My solution is:
Delete the old back-up file (+600GB) and re-back-up iMac. Keychain from the old user will remain intact and there would only be ONE copy of Documents folder in the backup (along with the incremental backups).
Would this work? Is there a way to remove back-ups prior to Aug4? How can I control TM so it doesn't consume my HD? I use this drive to store iTunes and iPhoto/Aperture libraries.
Thanks

Is there a phone number to call Adobe. I go around an endless loop pressing their contact info tabs? Maybe someone at this sight can help. I am new to digital photo - I have been a B&W film photographer for many years. I have a problem with a Macbook Air. It was working fine - I was using LR and a message came on the screen that said something like the memory was dangerously low. I stopped and tried to delete LR files. I couldn't do it. I closed the program and tried reopening and got the message that there is not enough memory available to open LR. I contacted Apple. They spent a half hour on the phone with me and eventually told me they didn't know how to help. The tech said that LR had gobbled up all the memory and said I should contact Adobe and ask where and how my photo files are stored and to delete them. I have several back-ups. Thanks - Arthur

This sort of error message only comes up for Lightroom when your hard disk is full. Indeed this has nothing to do with internal memory as that will be intelligently be dealt with. If you have a mac Book Air that is not so surprising as the cheapest versions come with very small hard disks and if you shoot raw with any recent camera, you'll fill up your hard disk very quickly and you can probably only store a few months of pictures if you are a typical photographer. So the bottom line is that you need to create some room on your hard disk. You should move some of your originals to an external hard disk. You can also delete some of your backup copies of your catalog file that Lightroom automatically generates every few days and that quickly gobble up hard disk space. So first figure out how full your hard disk is. To see that, go to the apple menu, hit -> About this Mac -> More info->Storage. You should see your internal hard disk on top and you'll find that it is almost entirely full with photos. Now find your Lightroom catalog file using Finder. It is usually in a folder in the Pictures folder in your home directory. You should see a Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat file, a previews file and a folder called backups. Inside the backups folder, you'll find a lot of subfolders. They have names that show the dates the backups were created. If you have backups of your entire hard disk, you can delete these backups when they are older than a few months. I usually only keep the last 4 around. Just drag the folders into the trash can on the dock on the bottom of your screen and empty the trash. This will probably free up enough space that Lightroom will already run again. Now start thinking about where you will want to store older images. If you have a good USB3 or Thunderbolt hard disk that is probably the best option. There is a video here by Adobe that has some instructions on how to do this: Is Your Hard Drive Full? Here’s How to Move Images to Another Drive in Lightroom. « Julieanne Kost's Blog If that doesn't work because you don't have enough hard drive space to run Lightroom yet, here is another set of instructions to move your files using the finder to the other hard disk: How do I move only my photos to another hard drive, leaving the catalog where it is? - The Lightroom Queen. If you follow that, as soon as you confirm all your images are on the new hard disk, you can delete them from your internal one. She is not so clear about that part but if you don't delete the originals that you moved off you don't free up space. You should move the folder structure over to the new hard disk and then reconnect the folders in Lightroom. That should make it refind all your images.
That said, if you are uncomfortable with the computer in itself, your best bet is to find a local photography club. There is invariably a Lightroom savvy person in there that could help you move your files. That might be your best bet if you are uncomfortable moving these yourself. A general mac savvy person like you would find at an Apple store or so generally will not be able to help you with this except when they are photographers themselves and know Lightroom. You might get lucky with that.

Moving user profiles from Server 2012 with RDS services to User profile disks Server 2012R2

Hello i have a question about moving my C:\users profiles.
My current settings on the servers are:
AD-Server 2012
SQL-Server 2012
TS- server with RDS roles (RDwebacces, RDs broker, RD session host) 2012
everything about user profiles is now in C:\Users
My new settings for the server will be:
AD-ActiveDirectory - server
SQL-Server
TS1- RDS (RDwebacces, broker, RDS server group management) 2012R2 (I have enabeld userProfileDisks to Filesistem server)
TS2- RDS(Session host) load balance 2012R2
TS3- RDS (Session host) load balance 2012
FileSistem - server ( here i will have on E: partition the new functionality UserProfileDisks) 2012R2
So is there a way to move profiles from TS - C:\Users to FileSistem - E:\UserProfileDisks
I am new to this so any idea wil be helpful.

Hi,
If the UPD is configured on the server which holds existing user profiles, just select the option:
store all user settings and data inside the profile disk.
Since you are moving user profiles between different servers, then user profile contents need to be migrated manually.
Best Regards,
Amy

How do it get my app to show up with message and mail when the user press "share contact" on the iPhone

Hi Everyone
Would like to check if it is possible to let my app show up togather with message and mail app when the user clicks on "share contact" from their contact edit.
Thanks in advance.

Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
* Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button

How to export a user and their schema from one 10g database to another?

Hi,
I would like to export a user and their entire schema from one 10g database to another one. How do I do this?
thx
adam

If you want to export a user and the schema owned to the user, and import to the same user in a different database, or a different user in the same database, you can use the exp and imp commands as described in the Utilities manual.
These commands are very versatile and have a lot of options - well worth learning properly. To give you a simplistic shortcut, see below - I create a user 'test_move', create some objects in the schema, export, create a new user in the database 'new_move' and import.

There are many variations on the theme ...
You can simplify this. You can select tables individually. You can use a parameter file. You can transport all the constraints and data. You can skip the data and only move the definitions. You can get some help (imp/exp help=yes).
And, if it's all 10g, there is a new and improved facility called expdp/impdp (dp = data pump) which has a lot more capability as well, including direct transfer (no intermediate file) together with suspend/restart. Also documented in the Utilities manual.

Userdata restore after moving users to new pool

Hi
I recently moved users from one Lync standard pool to another but users have lost all there contacts.
I never realised you needed to back them first before the moved users, is this now lost or can i get it back somehow?

Hi tonysolinas,
If you select Force, the user account is moved, but any associated user data is deleted (for example, conferences that the user has scheduled). If you do not select it, both the account and
the associated data are moved.
For more details,

Moved users to new message store Unity Connection

We recently moved users to a new messwage store on exchange. These users can no longer receive their voice mail in outlook. Everyone else can. What is the issue here?
Unity Connection
8.5.1.10000-206
Exchange 2003

You may need to check the Unified Messaging profile setup in Unity to ensure it still has access into the new store. In 2003, it uses WebDav, so if the account you are using is not setup to use WebDav on the new store, Unity can not deliver nor retrive information from this new store. Also note, there is some sort of odd requirement with Microsoft and WebDav.. the account that uses WebDav must have a mailbox setup and at least one message sent and received to it. (Or just logged into at least once for it to be active). I have no idea why, but its documented at MS and seemed to fix a problem for me during a prior install with CUC and 2003 Exchange

AD users loose adminrights when offline

I have an environment with Mac laptops bound to AD, given localadmin rights through deploystudio. But apparently they loose their admin rights when they are no longer on our network. Can anybody help me?
Best,
Mads

Yep. That is the side effect of the evolution of AD integration. Many more things are live look ups. Have you tried password protected screen savers yet? Yep, live call to AD. The reason this is failing is the domain users is an AD group and the system can not resolve the GUID without access to the domain.
In any case, there is a way around this but it is a little messy and it breaks the whole point of using the plug in to allow for a single point of control. If you are using cached credentials, you should be able to add the user to the admin group. Once again, this posses a number of problems as you are now injecting an AD user into a local account, you have no centralized method of removing admin rights from the user, and each machine requires a custom command (you need to issue the users shortname).
Now, you other option is to say, "it is a security implementation to prevent unauthorized access to the machine when it is not under the protection of out LAN." Yep, line of garbage, but the real question is, why do they need admin rights? If for installing software, that likely should not be up to them if you are enforcing a corporate standard. I generally can't find a good argument for permitting admin rights.

IMS52 - Moving Users Between Partitions

Hello,
We are on
iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 HotFix 2.09 (built Nov 18 2005)
libimta.so 5.2 HotFix 2.09 (built 10:35:58, Nov 18 2005)
I understand this is going off of maintenance, but we are tied to this version
based on the portal we are using.
Would like to verify a procedure I've been using to
move users from one partition to another. Over the past year,
I've moved roughly 5000 accts (out of about 57K) using the "mboxutil -r"
command. Out of the 5000, a handful have had issues with 'disappearing'
INBOX - all have been using the MS Outlook mail client.
I asked our portal software support about this and they said this method
was not supported while the user was still had a imap session going and that
mailbox corruption could occur. They pointed me to #1 on page 642 of the
MS Admin Guide - sure enough, it's there and I don't know why I never really
noticed that first part. I was hoping to use this method to move users from
our old SAN to a new one, with the mboxutil running all during the day/night.
So, with this information, I'll probably just move users during the wee hours,
letting them know ahead of time to not use their account during those hours.
1) Is there anything else I should know about mboxutil rename? To this date,
it's worked well, with the exception of the Outlook email clients.
2) I came accross the MoveUser command, but that seems more for moving
to another server. However, it sounds like this can be done while the user
is logged on. Is this true?
Would appreciate your comments.
Thank you,
Keith

1) Is there anything else I should know about mboxutil rename? To this date,

There is an existing RFE (request for enhancement) to have the user automatically disconnected from IMAP when a move (mboxutil -r) is performed (RFE #6499681). MS6.3 already provides the ability to disconnect individual IMAP connections (imsconnutil -k) so this would combine the two operations.
2) I came accross the MoveUser command, but that seems more for moving
to another server. However, it sounds like this can be done while the user
is logged on. Is this true?As you say this utility is more for moving users across systems which is a much different operation as the underlying store database doesn't change as it does during a mboxutil -r operation. The idea is that the move can be performed online (the user see's the 'old' account) and when they reconnect they will be connected to the 'new' account.
Regards,
Shane.

My Itunes library files looses their file location

My Itunes library files looses their file location only if I select them. If I close Itunes and then start again they are all there. It is only when I select one or any of my library files, that Itunes "looses" them and I have to manually "locate" them. Several sofeware "upgrades" back, ITunes worked fine. Apple is sending too many "patches" and is about to LOOSE ME....

Each time you restart iTunes it assumes that all the tracks are where it thinks they are. The exclamation marks only show up if iTunes attempts to do something with the files and cannot find them.
Possible causes are that you or some third party tool like WIndows Media Player have moved, renamed or deleted the files, or that the drive they live on has changed drive letters. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you might be able to reconnect iTunes to them using my FindTracks script. To start with test it out on a handful of tracks that show up as missing in action. If it can find & repair the links to those throw larger selections at it until everything is connected.

Moving users programmatically

I need to move an entire postoffice of users (about 1600) from one PO to
another. Obviously the best way to do this is programmatically. In the
past I have found that moving a user that is currently logged in causes
a minor disruption to the uesr. Is their a way to determine whether or
not a user is currently logged in using the Admin API? I didn't see
anything in the doc, but wanted to ask the minds to to be sure.
-thanks,
chris heath

There is nothing in the admin object API which will do this. It might be
possible from the object API - I'm not sufficiently familiar with that to
know either way.
BTW I have a program for moving users en masse if you dont want to reinvent
the wheel - see gwmove at www.jrbsoftware.com.

CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups
Decide on whether to setup as Admin or Standard User.
Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar or use Fast User Switching
Fast User Switching allows other users to leave current applications and windows open. Depending on RAM, you might need to log out rather than use FUS.

How to find out list of users and their access on Sharepoint

Hello Everyone
How can i find out list of users and what access they have on SharePoint site? I want to create table with list of the users and their access?
