No virtual desktops in Win10 (please fix)?: Dangerous game promoting app switching on different displays as virtual desktops

Seems virtual desktops are overpromoted - and in fact not about virtual desktops (changing content on the desktops). The socalled virtual desktops are right now
no more than app switching on different displays.
Dangerous game again from Microsoft promoting things as something they are not.
Virtual desktops are already a well-defined concept - and people will expect the desktop to be able to change content (be dynamic) ... the data and launching programs for documents, different backgrounds.
... but as others may already have stated in other threads: (Right now) Windows 10 does not contain virtual desktops/displays/screens. Not at all.
A skeptical hypothesis - hopefully it is not so, and we will be able to work with data in a valuable way. The data is on the desktop anyway today - so why not make it real virtual desktops? I simply do not understand the decision.
So here comes the skeptical hypothesis - it's not a Steve thing. It's Microsoft still looking for that next revamped business model to finance their future.
So the freak kind of virtual desktops (virtual desktops in Win10 a lie?) will disappoint - have already begun to do so - and seems Microsoft is just taken up with inserting an additional intermediary step towards relaunching the appstore and hiding
all the user data in cloud again. Really, hiding the difference between data availability - not making the cloud something MORE but making the local system something LESS. The NEXT BIG thing? So we're going to loose file system, folders and the general ability
to form concepts of our own - and get a freak system? The NEXT BIG thing - data integration? Because data was hidden away now. Also in local systems. Artificially creating new problems - rather than solving new interesting ones?
We need to able to pin the data onto the display whether desktop, start screen, what ever. It's also on the feature requests. Desktops/Start Screen/Original displays for workflows/whatever actual starting points on login ... needs to have
more links than application from appstores and application containers linked to them.
If any more app (read: not cloud, data) but appstore, appstore, appstore
application containers hiding the data away comes into the UI I am going with Linux. I am that close ...

A better name would be Virtual Display Layouts ... Virtual Screens ... Virtual Start Screens (please let us be able to pin files/folders to the Start Screen, a requested voted for feature for Windows 10).
You see, go back and read the topics for Windows 8 ... you will learn the Start Screen is/was the new desktop - and should have been made virtual.
So please get your act together and stop confusing everything ... and make on coherent system. Drop the Start Screen - and go with the virtual desktop
(put the Start Screen technology into the virtual desktop - and let users pin folders and files there as requested ... both local and in the cloud)

  • Please Fix Credit Auth. in App Store -- PLEASE

    This inability to upgrade apps on my iPhone 4 from my iPhone 3 is just stupid! Sometimes I can enter a different credit card (PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR POOR PROGRAMMING TO MY ACCOUNTANT) and other times I can not.
    I have entered two different credit card numbers and their codes and dates so many times that I now give up. The crooks have won, the honest Apple customers have lost, and my apps want to be upgraded.
    Just make it simple.
    Otherwise, let's tell prospective buyers to hold off on their upgrades until some junior programmer gets their poop together!!!

  • "Your server is disabled.  Please fix your server settings or start..."

    Hi all,
    I just installed the eval version of Weblogic 8.1 platform and Workshop, and I am working through the first BPM tutorial.
    I have completed building the Process Definition, and proceeded to build and run the application. When I tried to run the application, I was prompted to start the weblogic server. I did. it seemed to hang ( for over 5 mins). I ran the stopWeblogic.sh script, closed the workshop and logged off the server (I'm running Red Hat, actually, Fedora 2)
    When I restart the Workshop and attempt to run the Process definition, I get the following error in a dialog box:
    "Your server is disabled. Please fix your server settings or start a different server".
    Has anyone seen this before? how do I get past this?

    You may run into a lot of jip installing WLS on Fedora 2 as I think it is only certified on Red Hat Enterprise.
    I think the error message is simply a result of your server being down.
    Workshop has to be configuered to be used with your domain. I take it you have opened an application by selecting and *.work file from your domain. Once this is done you can check your settings by selecting tools, weblogic server, server properties.
    Double check all your settings here. If is all looks ok try starting the server from workshop. This may take some time depending on the spec of your machine and the type of application your have, what are these?
    Can you also post your logs here.

  • Using different templates for the desktop and phone versions of the same blog

    I have a site which was created in Adobe Muse and is hosted on Business Catalyst.
    I have created both a desktop and a phone versions of the site.
    I  want to know how I can integrate the blogs that I  currently have on the desktop site with the phone version that I just did, using different templates for the desktop and phone versions of the same blog. This is in order to ensure that visitors to the blogs on the website are directed to the templates that render correctly for the devices they are using.
    My current approach has been to create both a desktop and phone versions of the blogs. The problem with this however, is that the dates are different and the comments are separated between the two blog versions!
    I  have also tried enabling mobile templates in BC, but still couldn't find a way to specify the mobile versions of the templates for the same blog?
    To recap my problem, I basically  need a solution where the same blog uses different templates for desktop and mobile (both templates use different navigation headings and menu styles)
    Thanks.

    There can be few reason for this, including page contents links or contents used in phone/tablet version.
    Please provide the site url , also try to publish the site as a trial site in Business Catalyst with all layouts which would help to isolate the issue.
    Thanks,
    Sanjit

  • Please fix liquify already!!

    Hi,
    There is one problem with liquify that never got fixed: Most of the times (always?) when processing large files, it doesn't use the user-specified scratch disc or the TMP-Folders but creates temporary files (*_MVM_*.tmp) in the root directory of arbitrary (!) drives (even external usb drives). This even happens, if there is plenty of free RAM available (~several GBs).
    Best case scenario: things are severely slowed down even on the newest fastest machines (e.g. when it picks a slow disc that you only use for storage), worst case scenario: "No more virtual tiles can be allocated" (e.g. when it picks a disc with only little space left or one where you don't have write permissions).
    There are so, so many complaints about that in the web (for years now!), e.g.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/747353?start=50&tstart=0
    http://www.modelmayhem.com/po.php?thread_id=492170

    http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/754197/0
    http://www.realgeek.com/forums/photoshop-cs4-liquify-tool-issue-472605.html
    ... however, no fix yet!
    The obvious improvement would be to create the tmp-files in a well-defined place (what about scratch?) that the user can control.
    That's a one-liner that every intern at Adobe should be able to code. Of course it would be even better, if these files weren't created in the first place.
    Anyway, please fix it!
    Btw, did anyone at least find a workaround for the problem?
    Thanks!

  • "There is not enough virtual memory available. Please save your work and restart {0}"

    This seems to be the most recent similar post. Prior posts are not useful as they have supposedly been fixed.  The most relevant Microsoft connect case has been closed.  The reported new Microsoft connect case has been deleted without explanation.

    Yet, still the problem persists.  Only working on one small XAML file. VS2013 and Blend always report "There is not enough virtual memory available. Please save your work and restart {0}" (except when they report "Package 'DesignPackage'
    failed to load" when run in safe mode) Saved my work and restarted VS2013, Blend, and the computer. Followed all other suggestions as much as possible.
    There is an abundant available and virtual memory.  The only changes from last week to this is Microsoft updates.
    Has there been any new effort on this issue that I have missed?
    What is left to do?

    Get IT to do it. Get them to uninstall all the latest updates, since you can identify them as a proximal cause of the problem. Also, search MS Knowledge Base or do some googling for the exact error text.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
    '''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
    *Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    '''For Firefox versions previous to 29.0:'''
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]] button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Please fix your web plugin immediately, yes this message in the right forum

    Ok.
    On my mac, java takes about 5-10 seconds to load in a web page applet from either safari or chrome.
    This is 4.9 to 9.9 seconds too long.
    PC is a bit faster but not much.
    Sun absolutely wrecked java with respect to the web-client.
    Please fix this.
    Why: Because I want to write web-apps which don't suck. Which means I can't use javascript. Because despite the gajillions of money poured into marketing, it is really very, very slow.
    How to fix:
    It is very easy.
    1. Use PhoneME with JIT. (get startup time to near zero). You might say, "well, we're about to get java to have zero startup time." But this is what you have been saying for ever, and failing at, miserably! Stop trying, give us a JavaME plugin instead.
    2. Do NOT distribute monolithic massive class libraries. Instead, give me the opportunity to create class loaders. (I know you think you already do, but please look up the 10 year old bugs regarding the web plugin and class loaders). Make the distributable as SMALL as possible.
    3. Are you writing the pluginin "in-between" code in webkit? If you are, fire who ever is writing it. If you aren't, WTF, the connection between the browser and java is slow as a slug. If I was just a bit more of a cynic I would think google is putting in usleep(1000) between calls. Take this code over NOW.
    Look, you STILL have a tremendous opportunity in the web-client-space.
    You need to show that Java is BETTER than javascript. Which it could be.
    But currently it sucks.
    It uses too much memory, it has a slow startup time, the connection between javascript and java is slow.
    I should be able to write <script type="jar.pack.gz/java" src="blahblah.jar.pack.gz"></script> and multiply my performance by a thousand. Please do it.
    I should be able to use a java2javascript library to simplify modifying the dom.
    I shouldn't have to write javascript, except for inline code.
    BUT INSTEAD I'M SPENDING MY TIME OPTIMIZING GWT.
    Javascript sucks, we all know it is rising because of a vacuum of any real performance.
    Please fill this void, or someone else will.
    Thanks,
    -tim

  • Crash report when i sign out from app store after finish install mountain lion on my macbook pro retina. please fix this

    Hi, I already finish download osx maountain lion after 2 attempts for my macbook pro retina. and when I want to sign out from my account at app store, it crash and some crash report show up. and if I sign in it happen also, but the app store still can be run after got the crash report, and I already sent the report to apple. do anyone got this problems ? and for apple : please fix this problems !

    Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • My scroll feature of the Lenovo ThinkPad(red scroll) is not working in the new Firefox 4. It was working fine in 3.6. Can you please fix this as this is very important feature.

    The scroll feature(middle button) is not working on the new firefox 4. So because of this I need to move the scroll bar to move the page. This is very irritating problem, if you are a guy who uses the middle button to scroll. Can you please fix this..
    Thanks!!!

    I updated to Firefox 4.01 today and the middle scroll button on my Lenovo T400 stopped working. I downloaded the updated Ultranav utility and the Ultranav driver for my T400 from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72858.html and then uninstalled the "Thinkpad Ultranav Driver" from Add/Remove programs rebooted and then installed the updated utility and driver (another reboot) and it now works perfectly.
    So glad to get this working again.
