Not saving registry settings in POSReady2009

I have a number of registry settings that are required to restrict the use of the system in POSReady 2009, for example remove the 'Run' option from the start button.
When I add the registry entries such as NoRun in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer the new entry appears but as soon as I reboot the registry entry disappears.

Is FBWF or EWF enabled in the system? If so, turn these off and make the registry change.

Iphoto not saving slideshow settings

HELP! I am DESPERATE!!!!! I have been working on a 45 minute slideshow for my parents 50th wedding anniversary party ALL WEEK. Iphoto is NOT SAVING my settings for the transisions between photos or the time each slide plays for. It is happening at random. No one at Apple has been able to help me...as a matter of fact I thought I was going to really lose it for about the 10th TIME when the last guy I spoke to tonight told me that I needed to speak with an IAPP advisor as he could not help me only being a senior advisor. My questions is WHY THE HECK HAVE I NOT BEEN transferred to an IAPP advisor all week when I have been calling them repeatedly trying to get issue resolved. This was the only person who said I should speak to someone in IAPP. I now have only FRIDAY to get this resolved as the party is at my house on SATURDAY!!!!
I know other people have had some similiar problems (glitches) from searching the internet and yet the people I have been speaking with say they have never had someone call up with this problem.....????
Anyone else out there have this problem and find a way to fix it?
(BTW--they already had me go the route of trashing the psist file and some cache file among other things......)

Terence
Thank you for replying. My ranting was just out of utter fustration of literally sitting at a computer since Sunday redoing and redoing everything in order to have try and have a nice slideshow for my parents rather than just dumping a bunch of photos & music into a slideshow. It loses its punch when things don't fall into the proper place or transition right.....
2 things Apple had me do initially:
move a cache file and psist file out of library to desktop and then into my trash (I then did a secure empty trash)
senior advisor tried to have me duplicate the problem while he was accessing my computer---COULD NOT. He said unless I can duplicate for him he can't help me. He also said that he has never heard of anyone else complain of this & has never heard of anyone making a slideshow so big??? Really? It is 45 minutes with 375 pictures. While a little lengthy I find it hard to believe they are not used to anyone makng a slideshow this long.
Anyways later I called back when I felt I could duplicate issue. I spoke with another rep. He had me change ALL SLIDES from 5 seconds to 1 second and unclick default transition thinking that this could be causing the system to keep wanting to ovverride my manual individual settings if I had any slide less than 5 seconds or another transition. However he also was miffed by the "size" of my slideshow and said that Iphoto slideshow really wasn't meant for something of this size and suggested I use IMovie. While I had never used it I tried it. After spending all day getting the photos in IMovie and in same order I started editing the transitions and slide times....well this was no good because if I changed one thing it caused a ripple effect and changed stuff. Sooooooo I called Apple back and spoke with Senior advisor that told me that this is what Imovie does and I really should not use it for what I was trying to do ....he still felt iphoto slideshow was the way to go. So we went back to iphoto slideshow hoping that the couple of small changes the other advisor had me do had worked....no luck. I then decided to try and start fresh with NEW slideshow, new settings and break up my one big slideshow into smaller slideshows & then eventually dumpt into Imovie......No luck. With about 30 photos I noticed it wasn't saving my slide times again or now the speed of transitions. So the bottom line is that there is a GLITCH with iphoto and I have seem similiar complaints on these forums.
I greatly appreciate your suggestion of trying other apps and would definately do that if I had the time but alas the party is tomorrow and I have only today to get it resolved and redone.
Thank You for Your Time

TeamViewer 10 deployment not adding registry settings?

Hi,
I am trying to deploy teamviewer 10 with custom registry settings so that the outlook add-in is disabled. So I have included the "TeamViewer_Settings.reg" file in the same source directory as the TeamViewer.msi. Is there something else I need to
do so that the registry settings are applied from this file when it is installed on the client?

For new installations (since the distribution point is updated) this reg-file will automatically import during the installation process" ?
Unless this is how the TeamViewer installer works, the app model will not do that automatically. The same rules applies to the app model, if you need to run both commands, put it in a seperate script and reference that script in your script installer deployment
type.

Non admin user - changes not saved (Safari settings, system prefs, etc.)

iMac, 2 users, one is administrator and other is standard user. Recently, in the non-admin user account, it has become impossible to make any changes. For example, adding an application to the the Dock, after logging out and back in next time, the application is not in the Dock any more. Also, making changes to the prefs in Safari, changes are not saved.
I noticed this after installing FireFox v4. I installed it as admin whilst in the non-admin users account. However, I don't believe that the installation of FF has anything to do with the problem, it just highlighted it. I've checked the permissions for the various directories that hold prefs info such as user/libraries/application prefs/etc. etc. and also Safari prefs. Nothing I can see that has changed in system prefs.
Any ideas on what has caused the problem (kids are known to fiddle from within the non-admin account) and any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks

Hi PPRuNe,
You could try making the standard user an Admin too. To do this, make sure you are logged in to the standard user, go to System Preferences > Accounts > Standard user (you may have to unlock the padlock) > Allow user to administer this computer
This will allow changes to be made without being prompted for a password all the time.
However, if you had Parental Controls on, they probably won't work on an admin account because as an admin you have complete control over a computer, so the computer thinks there is no point in having the controls turned on. And if the kids are known to "fiddle," just think carefully!
Hope this helps you.
Chris.

LR 1.4.1 not saving print settings on Mac OS 10.5.2

1.4.1 won't save (or use) any print settings other than "Standard". In the print module if I select print settings, choose a printer and it's settings (like paper type and color management) then close the dialog the settings aren't saved or even used. It will only print with the "Standard" setting.
Tried on 2 systems and with new database.
- Joe

As far as I know, it's always behaved like this. The solution is to get the print settings the way you want, save it under Standard, and then save the setting as a Lightroom preset. The print settings will stick with the preset.

External Adobe Reader for pdf, not saved in settings

I'm using Firefox v32.0.2 (with Adobe Acrobat 11.0.9.29 Plug-in) on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1.
Using the Adobe plugin for very large pdf files results in a stalling browser, sometimes for minutes.
Switching over to the external Adobe Reader in the mimetype settings works ok, but only for the current session.
After restarting the browser, the setting for pdf files is back to the Adobe plugin.
Indeed, setting "Preview in Firefox","Always ask","Save file" is stored in mimetypes.rdf,
but setting the external Adobe read is NOT.
By now my workaround consists of deactivating the Adobe Plugin; then pdf files are always opened with the external Reader.
But i would like to know how comes that setting external apps to read pdf files is NOT stored in the settings and therefore lost when restarting firefox.
Anybody know why that is ? bug or feature ?
Regards,
Gaston

Hello,
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options (for Linux and Mac Preferences) button.
#In the Options (for Linux and Mac Preferences) window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

IScroll2 not saving my settings

I recently changed from SideTrack to iScroll2, and I love it, except it never saves my settings when I restart it. I actually have put an alias on my desktop that takes me directly to its preference pane to turn it on every time I use my computer. How do I get it to save my settings?

Make sure that you have the most current version (.32)... there were setting saving problems with a couple of prior versions while the author addressed leopard compatibility issues.

Apple Mail Client not saving server settings for iCloud?

I am trying to add my iCloud email to the Apple mail client.
As I work through the wizard to setup all the necessary entries inclduing the for the Incoming and outgoing mail settings but when the account is finally created in the
Mail client, the incoming mail server settings are not set and the box they are shown in is not available for editing.
The mail client vs is 6.6
I have tried this several times with the same end result, any help appreciated????

You don't manually add your iCloud email account using Mountain Lion. Instead, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your iCloud account and check Mail. This will automatically add the account with the proper settings.

Lr4 print template not saving 'Print Settings'

First of all ... I'm coming from Lr3 running in Windows XP to Lr4 on a Mac, and I'm still getting used to the way Mac OS does things, so bear with me ...
Since using Lr4 on my Mac, today is the first time coming back to a particular art paper. If I remember correctly, with Lr3 (Windows) the print settings "Page Setup" and "Print Settings" were combined into a single dialog of parameters. In any case, a defined Lr3 print template remembered everything (e.g., paper size, paper type, print quality, etc). However, I am finding Lr4 (Mac) only remembers the 'Page Setup' settings and that I will always need check and usually modify the 'Print Settings'. Is this a functional difference between Windows and Mac OS, or am I missing something? Or, did something go awry when I upgraded to Lr 4.1 RC??

New console launcher - NOT SAVING SETTINGS (Vista x

wtf. new console launcher version is not saving my settings.... speaker settings.. volume etc.. everytime i? reboot its back at default.
I have:
reinstalled console launcher. did reg clean / driver sweep etc.
still doesnt work. anyone?

In audio console you have a tab "restore defaults" uncheck everthing from it, this may help you as helped me long time ago and I am unchecking it since then just to be sure and never have the problem again. You can also hack Auzentech drivers and Install theirs consoles it can resolve this issue but you must do this at your own as nobody can support you with info how to do this nor will I.Message Edited by Art385 on 08-06-2008 04:24 PM

Outlook error "The Delegate settings were not saved correctly. cannot activate send-on-behalf-of list. The operation failed"

Hi,
Re: "The Delegate settings were not saved correctly. cannot activate send-on-behalf-of list. The operation failed"
I have a client who is getting the above error when attempting to change delegate permissions in Outlook 2010.
She is also getting this error when she tries to remove a delegate.
I have tried recreating her mail profile.
I have also tried kb2593557. The auto fix didn't work at all and the registry fix only removes the error message and not the problem. This client would like to be able to edit her delegate permissions.
She is on Exchange 2010
Any assistance would be appreciated.

The article you provided is not related to the error message that the user is getting it.
Can you please provide better solution? I know this answer and this post is old but I am having same issue.
The error message is only (The Delegates settings were not saved correctly. cannot activate send-on-behalf-of list. The operation failed) I was not able to attach screen shot.

Bridge not saving settings.

I am using Bridge with CS4 and have the following minor but irritating problem.
Bridge does not save the current settings such as last folder used or screen view settings when the computer system is shut down.
These setting are saved during periods of opening and closing bridge while the computer remains powered up but are not saved (presumably to the registry) when the computer is powered down.
I am using Windows XP / service pack 3
I presume that there is an entry in the system registry that needs editing. I would appreciate if anyone with knowledge of a solution for this problem would assist me.
TIA
Roy Berger

Thank you for the information, it is most helpful.
Of course you are correct about me having bridge set to "autoload on
startup". It will look into closing Bridge before shutting down.
Appreciate the prompt reply,

ITunes not saving settings

Every time I start iTunes after a reboot, the "first-time" wizard pops up, and my settings are not saved. I have tried to unset the Application Data folder from Read-Only, and I have tried deleting both of the .prefs files. This seems to happen every time I install a new program or modify the registry in any way. How can I fix this problem?

Any help?
