New Folder Redirection Group Policy is not working

Recently installed a new server on an older network:
Old network server: SBS 2003
New network server: Server 2012 STD
The network is working well and all computers are able to communicate with each other. I have already mapped a few network drives to folders that are located on the server. The owner wants to implement the same Folder Redirection of their Documents folder
(Mixture of WIN7 PCs and WINXP) that their old server provided. I used the following Document to create the Folder Redirection:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj649078.aspx
I then went to each computer and performed a gpupdate /force on each computer than logged off the profile. When I logged off, the sync window (folder redirection?) popped up and still showed that it was trying to transfer/sync with the old server that is
no longer on the network. I also logged into the server and the shared folder that I selected for Folder Redirection does not have any data in it.
Is there something else that I am missing. Is there some sort of configuration on the clients themselves that I need to look for such as some Target Path?
I can provide more information upon request.

Hi,
Based on your description, have we redirected the folders back before we removed the older server?
Besides, were there some error events in the Event Viewer?
To configure folder redirection, we need to assign users proper share and NTFS permissions.
Regarding this point, the following article can be referred to as reference.
Security Recommendations for Folder Redirection
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc736916.aspx
Besides, regarding how to configure folder redirection, the following article can also be referred to for more information.
Configuring Folder Redirection
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc786749.aspx
In addition, for folder redirection to work, we need to log off clients twice, or we can enable the following policy.
Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > System/Logon > Always wait for the network at computer startup
and logon
Hope it helps.

Outlook 2013 - wrap text group policy applied, not working with or without digital signature

Hello,
I'm adding group policies to apply on our new installations of Windows 8.1 with Office 2013. One of the settings being applied is enforcing plain text emails and wrapping text at a certain number of characters. Policies are being added using the Outlook
2013 admx.
When I check the options inside Outlook 2013 the group policy did apply successfully (File, Options, Mail, scroll down to Message Format) The option to "Automatically wrap text at character:" is set to 132 and not adjustable as it should be.
In the group policy I have it set to wrap at 132 characters, but when I go to a client machine and send a digitally signed email, it wraps at the default 76 characters. This makes for very annoying short blocky emails and multi-line hyperlinks.
If I do not digitally sign the email then the text doesn't wrap at all! (until it meets the end of the window). So under no circumstances is it wrapping at 132 where it's supposed to.
Thanks,
-Nick

Hi,
What is your account type in Outlook? Exchange or others?
Please also let me know the email format that you are sending, Plain Text, HTML or Rich Text Format.
You can try sending the same emails in Outlook Safe Mode:
Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /safe” in the blank box, then press Enter.
If there’s no problem in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which add-ins caused this issue.
Thanks,

Don't have proper privilege to change the date and time. Group Policy does not work

Hello All,
I have configure group policy to change date and time only administrator. The problem is Windows XP machine cannot view the calendar but windows 7 can. So i need to view the calender for windows XP machine.
Error: you do not have proper privilege to change the date and time.
Please suggest.
Thanks

Hi Parvez,
Before going further:
I applied a VM Windows XP pro. When I logged in as a local admin, I can view the calendar from the right corner of desktop or from control
panel. However, when I logged in as a normal user account, I received the same message as yours.
For now:
I know this is not what you want. However, for normal users to view calendar, we can consider to give
Change System Time permissions to these users.
In addition, regarding this topic, the following article and thread can be referred to for more information.
You cannot set the date, time, or time zone on your computer

Policies assigned to groups - membership changes not working

I have a single ZESM IR8 server setup.
All security throughout my environment, ZESM and otherwise, is based on group membership.
If I change a user from one group to another group this change does not reflect in their policy assignment.
Scenario: GroupA = standard user policy, GroupB = power user policy.
UserA was first in Group A and therefore got the standard user policy.
UserA now requires the power user policy.
Remove UserA from GroupA and add UserA to GroupB (in iManager).
UserA does NOT get the "power user" policy that is assigned to GroupB
Am aware that I can assign the policy at a user level but this is NOT an option in my environment. All security assignments MUST happen at a group level.

What you observed is the expected behavior.
ZESM doesn't updates group membership in real time once a policy has been published. I've described this behavior on previous posts.
What the MC does behind the scenes when you click "Publish" on a container or group object is to assign the policy individually to each member/user. For groups, it resolves membership at the time the policy is published then the MC iterates among each member assigning the policy to each of them. That's why you don't see updates once the policy is published.
Try Updating the published policy to see if that works. From the docs:
Updating a Published Policy
Once a policy has been published to the user(s) or computer(s), simple updates can be maintained by editing the components in a policy, and re-publishing. For example, if the ZENworks Endpoint Security Management Administrator needs to change the WEP key for an access point, the adminstrator only needs to edit the key, save the policy, and click Publish. The affected end-users and computers receive the updated policy (and the new key) at their next check-in.

'Get All New Data Request by Request' option not working Between DSO n Cube

Hi BI's..
Could anyone please tell me why the option ' Get one Request only' and 'Get All New Data Request by Request' is not working in DTP between Standard DSO and InfoCube.
Scenario:
I have done the data load by Yearwise say FY 2000 to FY 2009 in Infopackage and load it to Write-optimised DSO (10 requests) and again load Request by request to Standard DSO and activate each request. I have selected the option in DTP's to 'Get All New Data Request by Request' and its working fine between WDSO and SDSO. But not working between Cube and SDSO. While Execute DTP its taking as a single request from SDSO to Cube.( 10 request to single request).
Regards,
Sari.

Hi,
How does your DTP setting looks like from below options ? It should be change log, assuming you are not deleting change log data.
Delta Init. Extraction from...
- Active Table (with archive)
- Active Table (without archive)
- Archive ( full extraction only)
- Change Log
Also if you want to enable deltas, please do not delete change log. That could create issue while further update from DSO.
Hope that helps.
Regards
Mr Kapadia

The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly

The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly. It has sound without the headphones in but when I plug them in it has no sound, it's low, or poppy. I had only used my apple supplied headphones once before and it worked fine. I know it's not the headphones because I tried them on my girlfriends phone and they worked fine.

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

I am trying to setup my new time capsule but it is not working. after entering the airport utility and locating the TC, after I tell the program to continue, the unit just disappear and the setup menu says there is an error. Any idea of what is happening?

I am trying to setup my new time capsule but it is not working. after entering the airport utility and locating the TC, after I tell the program to continue, the unit just disappear from the menu and the setup menu says there is an error. I tried using the wireless connection, and also the cable, but none worked. Any idea of what could be happening?

What are you setting it up as.. join wireless network .. the very worst setup, it will disappear.. reboot the whole network in order modem. router TC.. clients and it will likely reappear.
Tell us what network setup you are using..
If you setup with cable to a computer completely isolated from the network with TC also isolated.. finish the setup of everything you want. .before update.. then plug it into the network. .then restart everything in correct order.. it will work most of the time.

Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

Hi There
Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
Solution to working You Tube app:
-Go to playstore
- Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
- "Et Voila", working again.
This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
Hope it helped.

I am trying to log on to iwork but it keeps saying that my password is incorrect. I have already reset it and entered my new password and it still is not working. what should i do?

I really can't comprehend the logic that leads to believe that password for old apple id will come to e-mail for new id. Buy may be I just misunderstood something. Contact Apple for assist with password retrieval. If you can verify yourself as account owner they may be able to help you.

301 Wiki SSL redirect via Server Admin not working

I can't get http://myserver.com/wiki to redirect to https://myserver.com/wiki. I have other 301 redirects to send users to https pages working fine. How can I fix this? Thanks for your time - it's much appreciated. (Mavericks/Server Admin 3.1.2)

Regarding the redirect, I don't really understand why it's not possible. You can edit the non-SSL website in Web and add a 301 for /Wiki to redirect to https://myserver.com/wiki. In fact you can redirect the entire site to SSL - but that is problematic. I can understand why Mavericks server would be designed to automatically use SSL for wiki logins, if it's available. I only looked at redirects because this was not working. Without a redirect or with a redirect - I can login to Wiki via non-SSL or SSL. Where (specifically in which text file) are these redirects created using Server Admin written to? I can't find them in apache2/httpd.conf. Thanks again for your help.

HT202853 I have many project made in move HD that are not updating to the new iMovie 10 on my new iMac. Why is this not working as stated? How do I get my projects back from backup after old iMac crashed?

I have many projects made in imovie HD that are not updating to iMovie 10 on my new iMac. Why is this not working as stated on the article HT202853? How do I get my projects back from backup after old iMac crashed?

According to:
Update projects and events from previous versions of iMovie in iMovie (2014) - Apple Support
you can update from iMovie versions 7, 8 and 9, but iMovie HD is iMovie 6.
Maybe you can update in two steps, first from iMovie 6 to iMovie 7, 8 or 9 then to iMovie 10.
