Novell Client 4.91 on Windows 7 doesn't work right?

Just to confirm for one of my vendors, Novell Client 4.91 cannot be used on
a Windows 7 workstation correct?
His application takes over 5 minutes to open when accessed from a Windows 7
workstation using Novell Client 2 SP3 (IR4).
He is telling me I need to "upgrade" to version 4.91.

Yes, pausing the Workstation service allows the app to open in less than ten
seconds.

    After Upgrading Acrobat Reader XI to Acrobat XI Pro the previewer in Outlook and Windows Explorer doesn't work.  I have to set the default program for .pdf's to Acrobat Reader in order for the previewer to work.
    Can anyone recommend a solution?

    If I set the default program for viewing PDF as Acrobat XI Pro the a PDF file will open with Acrobat XI Pro, but in Outlook I will get a white screen and the information bubble "This file cannot be previewed because there is no previewer installed for it" and in Windows Explorer I get a white screen in the preview pane.

    GPO "don't run specified windows applications" doesn't work to in win 8.1. any ideas why?  it is enabled and list of progs is entered however I can still run all progs on list.  This is a local machine not on a domain.  I must

  • DVD menu doesn't work right in DVD players

    I've created a DVD in Encore for Mac.  It plays fine on my Mac and on Windows.  However, once it is inserted into a stand alone DVD player, the menu doesn't work right.  I have four text menus.  In the DVD player, none of those are navigable.  Arrowing up or down doesn't work.  You have to click a number on the remote keypad and then play. This also causes "Channel 1" or "Channel 2" and so on to display.  Any ideas how I can get the arrow keys to work?  I don't have a stand alone dvd player to test against.
    Also, in Windows, I have someone that wants to duplicate the dvd.  They're using Movie Maker.  It gives an error that the codec is not installed but doesn't say which codec.  Any ideas on that?

    The only time I recall similar problems was the issue Jeff was asking about above (Mac, Encore CS3, certain OS).  If you don't solve this otherwise, I'd experiment with that.
    You appear to have confirmed that there is button navigation.  (In button routing, each button points to another.)  Where does it break down?
    On the Mac/PC, are you using the mouse?  In the computer DVD software player, there should be a "remote" that you can use to see if the button navigation is working.  Does the computer "remote" option work?  If so, it makes it not working in a standalone player even odder.
    If not, then look at whether the project works before you burn to disk.  Does the "remote" work in the Encore preview?  Or build to a folder, then play the DVD from the folder.  (I don't know how on Mac; on PC, I find the first .ifo in the VIDEO_TS folder, and play that.)

  • Media player doesn't work right , code# cood1197

    Why won't any of my music play on windows media player and rip any music to my ipod  recovered august since then player  doesn't work right now. product bv545aa#aba  serial# 4ce1031lws ,model # p6754y & getting code # cood1197 & are there any free updates for player ?  thank you.

    I haven't had a problem with either.  I have switched to using MixZing as my player because it also allows me to work with the contents of my SD card and has a nice equalizer function that really works well with a quality pair of headphones or when plugged into my home stereo.  It's available on the Marketplace.
    I do know that with Youtube, I get much less buffering if I pull videos through the WiFi function when attached to my home network.

  • Palatino superscript doesn't work right

    Palatino is my favorite font. But since installing Mavericks, superscripting doesn't work right in Microsoft Word. When Palatino type that is 14 points or smaller is superscripted, instead of being reduced a couple of points it is made extremely tiny. Also, instead of being raised to the top of the line, it appears in the middle (vertically) of the line. Since I use endnotes a lot, this effectively destroys the Palatino font for me.
    According to Get Info, this particular font is Copyright © 1991-99, 2006 Apple Computer, Inc. Copyright © 1991-92 Type Solutions, Inc., so I've had it for a long time. Is there an updated version that will fix this problem? I don't have this problem in other programs, including PowerPoint. I use Office 2011.
    Here is an enlarged image of the superscript (st):
    <img src="http://ti.org/images/Superscript.png">

    I think folks are looking for a solution.
    And I have given one. The Palatino font supplied with Mavericks is no good. The only fix is to replace it with an older version. If you don't have one, you can't fix it.
    Do you agree that Restore Standard Fonts...works ... Yes? No?
    No. That option only attempts to remove fonts from the System and root Library folders that are included with OS X. It doesn't give you an option to restore OS X supplied fonts that are missing.
    I have to presume you installed Mavericks over Mountain Lion. In Mavericks, Palatino is installed to the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder. In ML, that same (correctly working) font is installed to the /Library/Fonts/ folder.
    Presuming this scenario is correct, the working version of Palatino in the /Library/Fonts/ folder was already active. When resolving conflicts in Font Book, the active font is always the one left active. Which would mean it removed the broken, Mavericks installed version.
    As noted above, I fully tested and have proven the Mavericks version of Palatino is bad. I have multiple versions of this font. They are from:
    OS 9
    MS Office 2011
    Lion
    Mountain Lion
    Mavericks
    Adobe Type 1 PostScript
    Adobe OpenType PostScript
    I used Suitcase Fusion to activate one version at a time. Testing in Word, InDesign and other apps, they all behaved as expected until using the Mavericks supplied version.

  • I upgraded to IOS 5.1 and the phone doesn't work right

    I upgraded my phone to IOS 5.1 and the phone functionality doesn't work right.  If I make a call, once connected I go back to the main menu and can't get to the phone controls (including the ones to hang up).  If I receive a call, the wheel comes up, the phone does not ring and I can't answer it.  I tried restoring the phone, but that did not work.  Does anyone have any ideas?

  • Windows users doesn't work after migrating from old to new server!

    We have done a complete re-install on our XServe with OD. We have about 10 Windows users, and after the installation all their settings and mail are gone. All the "normal" files are there though.
    I'm not sure we have done it the right way though: We did a backup from the old server (a bootable copy with Super Duper), then we formatted and installed everything. We made new accounts (with different names if that's good to know) and copied the users home folders to the new location. The Mac clients seem to work good, but all the settings on the Windows clients are gone...
    Is there an easier way to this? We still have the workable copy from the old installation. There seems to be some kind of export/import way to do this, but I haven't got a clue how to do that...
    Please help!

    davidh,
    We didn't reintegrate smb.conf, but set the new server up just like the old one. We did however compare these files to see that the vital parts (netlogon, shares and so on, and of course basic settings) were correct.
    We also copied the user files and profiles and made them identical on the new server, except for placing them under the new usernames.
    Regarding the Local Settings folder, it doesn't exist on the old server, that's one of the weird things. We've checked the profile for a user on the client machine, and it is a roaming profile. That's why we're a bit puzzled as to why the login works and all files are there, but the user preferences and Outlook doesn't work.
    I know I've read somewhere that the Local Settings aren't replicated like the other files in a roaming profile, but I haven't finished checking up on that. I wouldn't expect anything else than that Windows takes care of Outlook e-mail for a roaming profile as well though; I mean, the user must be able to read his/her mail from any computer in the domain, what else would the purpose of a roaming profile be?
    Except for the weird thing about us not being able to find the user preferences or Outlook files for the client amongst the files on the server, I feel we're missing something; Apparently Windows isn't as straight forward as one would expect (not sure why I did expect anything, come to think of it).
    We're going to give it a new go next weekend. Except for doing further research we're thinking of copying /etc/smb.conf and the files in /var/samba and /var/db/samba to the new server, along with exporting and importing the old user accounts to the new server, and then see if everything works as expected.
    If so, we'll see if we can change the account names in a nice way, it's really desired to do so.
    If not, we really need to do some more research, but if I'm not mistaking, the Samba-related files I just mentioned are the ones that pretty much make up the Windows Services in OS X, isn't that so?
    Thanks!

  • HT4061 Drag and drop function in Windows 8 doesn't work with iTunes.

    How to import music files from Windows 8 to iTunes 11.0.3 x64? Drag and drop function doesn't work. Thank you!

    > Straight drag and drop to PS produced a warning message so, when I then tried to drag on to the PS task bar button, I got the Ø cursor but on moving into the PS window and releasing the mouse button there, the file opened.
    That's the strangest behavior that I would imagine. Are you using the default vista aero theme or you have turned down or using custom theme and visual effects?
    > it needs to be pointed out that this is a really bad habit that will smack you in the face one day...
    I don't understand what you mean. If you are concerned about viruses, in my understanding copying and opening a file from the internet which is what "Save image as" does, is less safe than coping and pasting pixels. Copying and pasting pixels is the same as coping and pasting text from your web browser, it can't execute hidden code. If that was possible everybody will get viruses at the moment text or pixels are displayed on your browser.
    By the way when you view a page from the internet, image files are already downloaded in the temp folder of your computer but only the browser uses them unless you open them from there and use in another program. So if you have a virus protection the images are already scanned.

  • Flashing in Windows Modes doesn't work

    I'm running Windows Vista Business, and when I try to update my BIOS in windows mode, it fails.
    I'm using MSI Live Monitor 3. After finding the bios (1.5), I use "windows mode" to flash.
    A command-line window comes up, and I can see everything getting flashed. However, after it's done it reboots automatically. After both the initial splash-scrren and the SATA-screen showing my drives, I get an CMOS checksum failed error, and I can either start fiddleing with the setting themselves, or just use defaults.
    I've tried both.
    And after both times, after I get back to windows again, Live Monitor 3 says it has an update for me - bios 1.5. So I can only conclude it wasn't installed, somehow.
    Before doing the install, I closed ALL programs, except windows itself. (I'm saying this, because Live Monitor 3 wishes me to close it..........)
    I cannot flash via a floppy-drive because I don't have one.
    Another problem is that DigiCell keeps telling med: "Failed to load driver". I have no idea what it even IS, but I'd just like to see what free software I get. :P
    Thirdly, has anyone heard of problems with external USB drives and MSI mobo's? I have a 500gb My Book drive that throws I/O errors in Vista, but not in XP on another PC...
    My PC is:
    MSI P965 Platinum,
    2.13ghz Core 2 Duo,
    2048mb DDR2 RAM, 533 Mhz

    Søren Andersen

    Thank you Jack!
    It is indeed updated to 1.5 - I just didn't notice, since I had the full-logo thing on.
    I also updated the drivers, but unfortunately that didn't help. :-(
    I've been trying since friday to fix this both on the WD forum (http://websupport.wdc.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5948) and on Microsoft's tech forum (http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.hardware_devices&tid=dc8d09ab-0d98-452c-b2d3-a0948f756dda&cat=en_us_9F280F8D-E6BF-F78C-234A-416CF09D5DC5&lang=en&cr=US&sloc=en-us&m=1&p=1)
    but we've still been unable to fix it...
    To be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with hardware. The drive doesn't work properly on this PC (MSI / Vista) but does on my laptop (Dell / XP), but it has to be checked...
    Basically, it keeps throwing 0x8007045D I/O errors, but I can see noone in here has had similar problems.
    So, thank you for your extremely swift replies and very great help!
    Regards,
