NALCACHE and Office Cache Dir GONE!

When Office 2003 was deployed, force cache and run was turned on to
distribute lights out and have Office installed on their machine Monday
morning working. This has worked great for the last 6 months'.
Recently we installed a new novell client, Netware 6.5, new Zenworks
agent 6.5.20.6, and a domain policy change for cache creditials was
turned on not to mention the million patches distributed to all
workstations with WSUS. Our environment is Windows 2000 and Windows XP
and we are seeing all kinds of problems now.
One problem in particular is office has been deployed and working on
our servers for quite some time with NO changes to these zenworks
objects at all. Well the majority of workstations on one of the servers
now has lost the following directory
(c:\nalcache\TREE\office_2003.apps.....\install).. .so we can't repair
office, remove office, nothing at this point. The only forseeable
thing it to bump the version up on this server app and let it
redistribute and cache again or create a custom maintenance wizard file
and let it redistribute again. We are assuming everyone would then lose
their settings again if we redistribute.
We have investigated and we cannot find out what is making this stuff
go away. No launcher config options have been changed, no changes to
the Zen object were made, and all *.bin files are still located there.
Anyone every had anything. This server is not part of our cluster as
are several other servers. What would cause this to happen? Policy
problems, etc?

How about anti-virus software? or Malware. I have seen this cause many
problems. I normally recommend that the nalcache directory be excluded
from being scanned.

Lost al .pages and .numbers docs , iphoto and office programs won't open after changing: auto startup in: startup with password. all personal settings are also gone

After i changed this setting: autologin. into login with password i restarted the computer.
it started up with a blank personal surrounding. also my .pages and .numbers documents were gone, personal settings gone, iphoto won't open and office programs wo'nt open.
in finder i can find several .doc documents and i can see that all my pictures are still on the system, But i can't open them.
i was so stupid not to use time machine. But is there way to recover the system with my documents or something??
please help.
System Imac i5 intel 21.5 inch
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 (11D50b)

Nope, without any backup they're probably gone for good. If you want you can purchase some data recovery software such as Data Rescue. I hope this may be a lesson why it's critical to backup your system, Time Machine is a good place to start.
BTW when posting please use proper grammar, it's difficult to read a post when no caps are used.
Good luck!

HT1386 I am unable to synch photo albums from ipad 3 to itunes on my windows pc. In addition to camera roll and ipod cache albums, i have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!

Dear Community members,
I am unable to synch photo albums from iPad 3 to iTunes on my Windows 7 pc.
In addition to Camera roll and iPod cache default albums, I have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. Eg - Family pix in a folder, Office pix in another, Plant pixs in another, House architecture pix in another.......all also exist in the camera roll.
I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!
I have ios5 on Ipad 3 and the latest Itunes on Windows PC.
As a precaution, I have used the windows "add pictures from...." to keep a copy in a separate folder in the windows desktop, but again it has all the pics mixed up together and not sorted as per the various albums in the ipad!
How to replicate the albums in the windows PC???
Regards
Sohal NS

Sync the photos back to the iPad using iTunes. You have to place the photos into a folder from which you sync photos. All photos that you want to sync to the device must be included in the main photos folder and selected to sync each time that you sync.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
Click on the Sync Photos From heading in order to select it.
Select the photos folder that you want to sync from.
Select all of the albums or photos within the folder that you want to sync.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

Cover Flow cache is gone every time I restart iTunes.

The title pretty much says it all. Ever since I began running iTunes on my new MacBook Pro (Spring 2009, 3.06 Ghz with 4GB of RAM) I was pretty disappointed with how slowly Cover Flow worked. I had been using iTunes on a PC for a while, but I figured that on brand new top-of-the-line Apple hardware, iTunes and Cover Flow would fly.
The problem is, every time I restart iTunes, it appears that any Cover Flow image cache is gone. It seems like it has to re-lookup and re-load every image in my library as I scroll. It is usually smart enough to predict where a long scroll if going to end and pre-load the images at my destination, but every cover that I "flow" over during the scroll appears as just the default musical note symbol. Plus, moving around is choppy as it loads every image. I have to manually scroll through the whole library in order to force it to load every single cover and therefore respond smoothly as I scroll through. This keeps working until I restart the app, and then I'm back to square one.
Why is this happening?

Thank you to all that gave advice, none of the suggestions worked I'm afraid........ but I did find a solution to the problem, by accident......... Doing a normal sync still does not work...... So what I have done is, limited each file to just 1000 photos, and have ended up with 32 files now........... I have ticked the boxes "Sync photo's from, selected files" and I sync with the first file ticked, then sync again with the second ticked, and so on, I know its long winded but they are now all on my ipod

Help?

Well you are being thorough on your troubleshooting however this looks like an Adobe issue. Have you posted the problem in an Adobe forum?

Server 2012 R2 Essentials and Office 365 Directory Synchronization

I'm in the process of Migrating an on premise Exchange 2013 Environment to Office 365. The environment already has Server 2012 R2 Essentials configured and integrated with Office 365 for Lync. I'm trying to determine best way of setting up the Hybrid Exchange
environment and move to Office 365. From what I've read it appears I need to setup the Office 365 Dir Sync tool. But I'm wondering if I need to break the existing Server Essentials Integration or can I just add configure the Dir Sync tool and go forward with
setting up the Hybrid Environment.
Vincent Sprague

If you are going down this route I would stop using the Essentials Integration and use the full DirSync which does more than the Essentials Integration.

Chromium and his cache

I am preparing a USB flash with an installation of arch linux for taking on my long trip.... and i have quite few space on it, so, i have been investigating, and i want to do this:
First, i will make /tmp be mounted on ram with tmpfs
Then, launch chromium like this:
chromium --disk-cache-dir=/tmp
This should make chromium's cache be located under /tmp, won't it?: This way all the cache will be on ram (disappear on reboot + don't use any disk space)
Also, how can i make chromium always get launched with this flags? I mean, unless i explicitly set this flags on command line, i won't get this "feature" activated......

You dont need to do that.
Just add to /etc/fstab the following line (replacing your_user for your user)
cache-chromium /home/your_user/.cache/chromium tmpfs defaults,noatime,mode=1777 0 0
then rm -r /home/your_user/.cache/chromium (to delete everything you had cached)
and mkdir /home/your_user/.cache/chromium (to create an empty directory).
After reboot, the cache will be mounted in ram and you won't need to modify the launcher.

Licensing Microsoft OS and Office in Virtual Environment

So I ask this because I haven´t found any decisive solution to my Setup, at least none that I am happy with.
The setup is as follows:
1x Host PC (lets not call it a server ;) ):
Host OS is a Linux Distribution, inside two Windows VM´s are installed with Office (Windows 8.1, Office 2013)
2xClient PC´s:
those could be Thin Clients to, my first thought was to use Linux with rdesktop to connect to the VM´s,
but than I found out about Windows ThinPC which could be used depending on Licence
From what information I could gather the following licences could be applied:
2x Windows 8.1 Pro Licence with Software Assurance (including 1x VDA Licence through SA)
2x Office 2013 Standard Licence with Software Assurance (SA only so it is allowed to access Office in the VM´s remotely from the client PC´s)
If I use Windows ThinPC no additional Licences are needed to access the VM´s and Office, from my understanding.
What if I don´t like to use Windows ThinPC?
Is it really that expensive? Those Licences would cost around 1600€ in my country.
Is Windows 8.1 Pro applicable for VDA through SA ?
Microsoft License Advisor does not list this, it does so only if I select Windows 8.1 Enterprise. (But any FAQ I found lists Pro versions as applicable)
If it really is that expensive maybe a solution with 2 PC´s and FPP software would be more appropriate, even so some very nice possibilities will be gone than.
Thanks for reading and I hope for some answers, even partial answers are very welcome.

Hello,
for Microsoft Desktop and application virtualization licensing, you need for each device have Access to Windows Client as VM and to Office 2013 the VDA license Or Windows 8.1 Enterprise with SA + Office 2013 in VL + RDS CALs if you have Access to
Windows and Office through remote Desktop Services on Windows Server.
the retail(FPP) license for Windows it's not recomended for VDI environement. you can use the retail license only if The physical server on which the virtual desktop is installed is assigned only to one user, and is not shared with
other VDI Desktops
thanks

Started with iPod/iTunes (home pc) several years ago. Added iPhone, iPad, laptop and office pc. Have multiple iTunes/iMusic folders

Started out with iPod/iTunes on a home pc several years ago. Added iPhone, iPad, laptop and office pc. Have multiple iTunes/iMusic folders on all 3 computers -- using iCloud to access media on iPhone/iPad. What's the best way consolidate songs, movies, books, etc prior to phasing out home pc? Which machine (laptop or office pc) is best to use as the master host for iTunes/iMusic going forward? Don't want to lose anything or create numerous duplicates.

I finally resolved this... by changing everything over to a new laptop. I had been running iTunes on a Vista desktop, and moved Outlook and iTunes to a Win7 x64 laptop. Once I got everything installed, I copied the iTunes folder to the laptop, transferred the purchases, backed up the iPhone and iPad to the new iTunes, and then synched them. Set iTunes to sync Calendar, Contacts, Mail, and Notes on both, and resynched. Once this was done and I verified that everything was intact on both the iPhone and the iPad, I tried entering a calendar event on the phone and then did another sync. The event showed up in Outlook. I then deleted the event from Outlook and did another sync and the event was gone from the iPhone. Did the same with the iPad and got the same results. So this apparently was something related to the desktop or Vista; I never got it resolved on the desktop. Not sure what it could be, but now that it's resolved I'm going to leave it alone. Maybe after I upgrade to an iPhone 5, I might try messing with the iPhone 4s on the Vista desktop. If I do, and happen to get it resolved, I'll surely post something regarding that.

Lync and Office 2013 Home and Business 'Present PowerPoint' not working

Hello All,
We have an Exchange online E1 plan that includes Lync, that we have been using without problems for the last year or so.
The 'Present PowerPoint' functionality of Lync is very useful, and again it has been working without fault until now. However, for one user who we have upgraded to Office 2013 Home and Business (from Office 2010), it no longer works when she clicks on
present, select PowerPoint and select a .pptx file. She gets the following error message...
'the presentatio.ppx couldn't be converted for presentation because Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) is not installed on this computer. Please install VBA and try again.'
The thing is it seems that Visual Basic for Applications is installed as a part of the Lync Basic Install. I re-installed Lync just in case, and when I clicked customize I ensured that Visual Basic for Applications was checked to install as run from the
computer.
In searching online I can see plenty of other people suggesting with Office 2010 to repair the Office install, and select customize and make sure the Visual Basic for Applications is checked to install too. However, with Office 2013 Home and Business
you don't get this option - it seems all or nothing. I have tried repairing both installs, re-installing etc with no luck
So is it that Office 2013 Home and Business incompatible with Lync or can anyone help or throw some ideas at me?
Thanks,
Andrew.

The suggestion since there is not direct solution as of today would be either roll back the office 2010 since we know this work
On upgrade to Office 2013 Pro use the full Lync Client

Foundation 2013 Farm and Distributed Cache settings

We are on a 3 tier farm - 1 WFE + 1APP + 1SQL - have had many issues with AppFab and Dist Cache; and an additional issue with noderunner/Search Services. Memory and CPU running very high. Read that we shouldn't be running Search
and Dist Cache in the same server, nor using a WFE as a cache host. I don't have the budget to add another server in my environment.
I found an article (IderaWP_CachingFormSharePointPerformance.pdf) saying "To make use of SharePoint's caching capabilities requires a Server version of the platform." because it requires the publishing feature, which Foundation doesn't have.
So, I removed Distributed Cache (using Powershell) from my deployment and disabled the AppFab. This resolved 90% of server errors but performance didn't improve. Now, not only I'm getting errors now on Central Admin. - expects Dist Cache
- but I'm getting disk operations reading of 4000 ms.
Questions:
1) Should I enable AppFab and disable cache?
2) Does Foundation support Dist Cache? Do I need to run Distributed Cache?
3) If so, can I run with just 1 cache host? If I shouldn't run it on a WFE or an App server with Search, do I have to stop Search all together? What happens with 2 tier farms out there?
4) Reading through the labyrinth of links on TechNet and MSDN on the subject, most of them says "Applies to SharePoint Server".
5) Anyone out there on a Foundation 2013 production environment that could share your experience?
Thanks in advance for any help with this!
Monica

That article is referring to BlobCache, not Distributed Cache. BlobCache requires Publishing, hence Server, but DistributedCache is required on all SharePoint 2013 farms, regardless of edition.
I would leave your DistCache on the WFE, given the App Server likely runs Search. Make sure you install
AppFabric CU5 and make sure you make the changes as noted in the KB for
AppFabric CU3.
You'll need to separately investigate your disk performance issues. Could be poor disk layout, under spec'ed disks, and so on. A detail into the disks that support SharePoint would be valuable (type, kind, RPM if applicable, LUNs in place, etc.).

Hi Leo22,
Does this error occur if you use any of the example programs that come shipped with LabVIEW? I would try opening one of the examples that write data to Word and see if those give you an error. Also, have you tried just putting down a New Report.VI and change the report type to Word? If this simple vi (that's all you need to open Word) breaks, I would check to see if there are any instances of Word still open. Check the task manager to see if any word processes are still open. There should not be a problem accessing Word 2003 from LabVIEW 7.0. If neither of these solutions work, please give some more detail about your application and we can research further. Thanks!

Unable to generate a Word document (RH9 and Office 2010)

Hello Everybody,
we have an issue with Robohelp 9 (patched to newest version). We are trying to generate a Word document (doc, docx) in the section of "Printed Documentation". If we click on the printed documentation on the left side (in the menübar), 2 popup windows flashing to the screen with the following complete message: "False Parameter". I can click on "OK" if i do it, both windows will close and the General Printed Document Page is loading.
The Problem is that all dropdown fields are blank and we cant chose .doc or .docx. I reinstalled both Programms (TCS and Office) it doesnt help me.
I have screenshoted and uploaded the blank Print Document General window at tinypic.
http://tinypic.com/r/t6drnn/5
Peter Grainge was asking me:
Also try with one of the sample projects. Click Open on the RoboHelp Starter page and then click Samples in the ribbon on the left. Same problem?
It doesnt work. (same problem)
Thx for help
Greetings Andreas B

This all points to some sort of installation issue. I notice from the screen you posted that a lot of the fields are completely blank. They shouldn't be. They should have default values. Check that you are installing following Peter's advice at http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/installing/installing.htm.

Have you upgraded to iPhoto 9.6 for compatibility with Yosemite? If not, try that first.
It looks like iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the original image files.
This can be caused by a corrupted iPhoto library, or the originals have been deleted or moved.
Try first to rebuild your iPhoto Library:
If you do not have a current backup of the iPhoto library, make a copy of the library, but do not overwrite any previous backup.
Launch iPhoto with the ⌥⌘-key combination (option-command) held down.
Select "rebuild" from the first aid panel. This may take a while for a large library.
Can you now see your photos again?
If not, rebuild the library with iPhoto Library manager as described by Old Toad: Re: iphoto crashed
