Outlook Reading Pane -- Disable for All Folders

I am really hoping the answer to this is not "you have to do it for each folder" (because I have hundreds of them) -- how do I disable the reading pane for ALL Outlook folders with a single click?

Hello,
In Outlook we can define view templates to to easily apply changes to multiple folders at once. Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013 also have a separate feature to copy the current view of a folder to other folders.
For more information, please refer:
http://www.msoutlook.info/question/51
Or, we can just use the /nopreview command to open your Outook with the Reading Pane off. To do this, please refer:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/outlook-help/command-line-switches-for-outlook-2010-HP010354956.aspx
Hope this helps.
Best Regards,

Help fix my function to show status for all folders

I have created a function (tow of them for the same purpose) but they are not working. They compile but when i call them I get null result.
What I want to do is get folder status for all folders in the database. There is a table called folder with status code, and another table called validstatus with the statuscode description
So when you look at the older you just see the status code which is a number but then using the function you will get the desription of what that code means.
Here IS THE function. Maybe I am not doing it right when I call them.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_folderstatus (v_folderrsn IN NUMBER)
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
v_return VARCHAR2 (128);
BEGIN
SELECT distinct vs.statusdesc
into v_return
FROM folder f, validstatus vs
WHERE f.statuscode = vs.statuscode
AND f.folderrsn = v_folderrsn;
RETURN v_return;
END;
When I call them using this statement I get null
select f.folderrsn, f_folderstatus3(vs.statusdesc)
from FOLDER F, validstatus vs
where f.statuscode = vs.statuscode
Edited by: user9508421 on Sep 11, 2008 8:11 AM

Now how do I create a function to give folder status for all foldertypes? I will then use this function in a package.
The Folder table has the following columns:
NAME Null? Type
FOLDERRSN NOT NULL NUMBER(10,0)
FOLDERTYPE NOT NULL VARCHAR2(4)
STATUSCODE NUMBER(10,0)
SUBCODE NUMBER(10,0)
FOLDERDESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(4000)
FOLDERCONDITION VARCHAR2(4000)
FOLDERNAME VARCHAR2(80)
The validstatus table has these columns:
NAME Null? Type
STATUSCODE NUMBER(10,0)
STATUSDESC VARCHAR2(80)

Hide side bar for all folders

How am i supposed to do to hide all side bar for all folders once for all plz ??

May be a corrupt .plist.
Do a backup.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Re-launch Finder by restarting the computer and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

How can I set a customized view in finder set as standard for ALL folders?

As I have a large number of folders, I need a specific view in finder: symbol view, sort by program and name. I tried to use this settings as standard for ALL folders, but using the 'set as standard' button does only work for the folder I am in, but not for ALL folders. I even tried to use this settings on the hard disk level in finder, but what ever I tried, it never applies to all folders. The problem occurs on each of my devices and on Yosemite OS 10.10.1. as well as Mavericks 10.9.5. Any ideas on how I can make the 'standard' work on all folders?

As Vinod says, unique key validator would be fine.
However, In Gabriel's blog:
Performing a unique key validation for an attribute that is declared to be unique in the database requires a round trip to the database. This is quite expensive and there is a fast and easy way to work around it.Is false on several fronts:
1). it's not expensive - it's actually cheaper than the alternative
2). Unique key validator can require many trips to the DB to validate - it must check all other rows in the EO to ensure there is no duplicate, and all of those rows must be fetched into the middle tier to do the validation: this is expensive.
The "cheapest" way to do this: unique constraint in the DB

My itunes keeps asking me to set my permissions. they are set to read and write for all accounts, admin, everybody, etc. don't know why it won't let me download

my itunes keeps asking me to set my permissions. they are set to read and write for all accounts, admin, everybody, etc. don't know why it won't let me download

Ever find a real solution to this? I just posted something similar - been having the issues ever since I started using the mac.
I have 5 mac accounts: 2 of those are admins.
After I installed every program I may possibly want, I redid all my user accounts (as I had been having a lot of permissions issues before that). My (admin) account downloads fine. Another admin account, set up exactly as mine, periodically gets prompted that it doesn't have the right to download.
To avoid duplication, I have a /common/music directory for all itunes accounts music. We have to periodically do a recursive permissions deal on the 2nd admin account so it can put music there, even though that directory is read/write for everyone. Apple's never been able to help me on this...

Outlook Reading Pane Inline Editing?

Is it possible to allow inline editing of items being viewed in the reading pane, like an Outlook task?
Here is some background:
One of my clients uses OneNote for task lists, which works ok to a point. I've never liked how there is no archive of completed tasks and they currently make a note tab called "completed" and manually move checked items there from time
to time. But the big problem is the Notebook is shared over the network between 5 employees and some of the Section files are over 8MB and when viewing and editing these sections its very slow. So I want to try and migrate them to use Outlook Tasks for there
"to do" list, which is hard since OneNote is so simple and fast. But Outlook will be able to handle archiving completed tasks and keep the system fast.
I've created some custom Task views to make the task list nice and simple. One thing i don't like and I know the client won't is having to open a window to view & edit the task. Enabling the "Reading pane" on the right of the task list solves half this
problem, but it would be nice if one could edit the task text contents in the reading pane.
I've looked all through Outlook trying to find a setting and can't find one. So i'm wondering if this is possible? If not maybe is there a way to have opened tasks open in a pane rather than a new window when you double click them?

I agree with you - editing of tasks in the reading pane would be very productive and help with the management of tasks.
However given that 'in-pane editing' of emails was a new feature only in 2013, I gather that we'll be waiting for a future update before this will be made available.
Any updates that can be shared on this?

Setting a default folder view for all folders in Windows 7

How do you set up a default folder view of "List" for ALL the folders in Windows 7 including the optical drive?
Artoo

I just installed windows 7. Are you seriously telling me that i now have all folders with mp3s in them AUTOMAGICALLY (THANKS FOR THE HANDY HELPING HAND THERE MICROSOFT!!!) set to some designers whim of what an mp3 folder "SHOULD" look like?
Well i was going to write a big rant, and indeed did, but then i was doing some more research and it seems like i just made everyones day and solved the problem (partially). Or well THIS guy did:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/16694/customize-the-five-windows-folder-templates/
After you’ve clicked OK, visit some of the other folders in your file system. You should see that most have taken on these new settings.
What we’ve just done, in effect, is we have customized the General Items template. This is one of five templates that Windows Explorer uses to display folder contents. The five templates are called (in Windows 7):
General Items
Documents
Pictures
Music
Videos
When a folder is opened, Windows Explorer examines the contents to see if it can automatically determine which folder template to use to display the folder contents. If it is not obvious that the folder contents falls into any of the last four templates,
then Windows Explorer chooses the General Items template. That’s why most of the folders in your file system are shown using the General Items
template.
Changing the Other Four Templates
If you want to adjust the other four templates, the process is very similar to what we’ve just done. If you wanted to change the “Music” template, for example, the steps would be as follows:
Select a folder that contains music items
Apply the existing Music template to the folder (even if it doesn’t look like you want it to)
Customize the folder to your personal preferences
Apply the new template to all “Music” folders
A fifth step would be: When you open a folder that contains music items but is not automatically displayed using the Music template, you manually select the Music template for that folder.
Anyways, sorry that explanation doesnt do it justice. I have spent waaay too much time trying to figure this out already. Also that link doesnt say how to 1) copy templates (are they file or registry based?, didnt do research) 2) if you can distable templates
or the automatic re-templating of folders.
THAT is what i want to know! as it is much more maintance then its actually worth...
but once i had set 5 default types to, the exact same thing... it now doesnt matter if it automagically switches it. SUCK IT MS AUTOTUNE!!!
Its bloody hard to frame this question too. What can you say about this? "folder changes to mp3" "customize folder types windows 7" "windows 7 folder changes to mp3" "dont automatically change folders to mp3" "how
to change mp3 details column for good" "automatically change column order win 7 mp3"
The search that actually solved it:
"do not apply default template to mp3 windows 7"
good luck, this worked for me!
EDIT: also i just noticed that neonr already answered this above. i just didnt read it carefully enough. anyways i guess i will leave this and mark his as answer.

find /directory/to/search -type d -exec chown user:group {} \;
Works for chmod too
find /directory/to/search -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
And files:
find /directory/to/search -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

Read-Only cell for all users

Hi,
We're running an 11.1.1.2 Planning application. A member in the Account dimension is read-only for all users including the Admin account.
The member is read only when accessed through a Data Form or through Smart View.
We addressing the Account dimension at level 0 on the data form.
The member is not Dynamic.
The member is only locked for EUR and GBP currencies.
The member has previously been moved to a new location in the Account dimension however we have run multiple database refreshes since the move.
Let me know if you need any more info. Any help which can be provided would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Is the installation file for adobe reader, the same for all the versions of windows ? Is it ?

Hello,
I want to know if the installation file for adobe reader is it the same for all the windows ?
It is because I have to do an automatic installation for XP, seven and windows 8...
It is also the same between 32bits and 64bits ?
Thanks.
Best regards
Sofia Luna

It may be worth mentioning two things.
1. Adobe provide extensive information on Enterprise Deployment of Acrobat and Adobe Reader.
2. You may well need a redistribution license to do this, if you are installing on behalf of anyone (accepting EULA for them), pushing, or hosting etc.

Preference Panes - Install for all users, after the fact?

Is there any way to get an already installed Pref Pane to install for all other users once it has been installed for the main account? I am hoping for a way that doesn't require uninstalling the current Pref Pane and reinstalling, some have settings I don;t wan't to lose for the main account.
PowerMac G4 Dual 1.25, MacBook 1.83 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2 Gb RAM : 250 Maxtor, 80 & 250 WD int. drives : Mighty Mouse : dual mon.

Thanks for the reply.
The app (Bamboo Dock) has installed in the root applications folder. When I'm logged in as the administrator I can see the proper icon in the apps folder and run it. however, when I log on as my son I can see the app but the icon is the default icon with the A and the pencil on and the app won't run.
I didn't have a choice where to install and the app did not ask me if I wanted to install for all users.
I was wondering if I could run the installer app from the terminal with sudo, then I would be giving the installer app the authority to write the receipt? I don't know if this would work or how to do it if it would.

Server 2003: make user template with read-only access for shared folders

I have need to make a type of user (like Administrator, Power User, Mobile User, User, etc.) that has read-only acess to shared folders. So when I make a new user and assign the "read-only user" template I wish to have, the user can open files
in the shared folders on the server, but not edit, save or delete files. Other users can and should remain able to edit, save & delete.
Before I dig in, is this even possible?

You could create a Group called ReadOnly, and set that to have Read on the ACLs of the relevant files or folders.
Make that template user a member of that group.
As long as they are not also a member of another group that gives them higher permissions, this would work.
Otherwise set the ReadOnly group to deny Write, which would over ride any other permission set.
So,
Folder A
ACL:
ReadOnly : R
Users: Read/Write
If a user is a member of Users & ReadOnly, they would get read/write to Folder A. As permissions are cumulative.
If you did the following:
Folder A
ACL:
ReadOnly : R
ReadOnly: Deny Write
Users: Read/Write
The users in ReadOnly would be denied write, as it overrides the cumulative permissions.

Outlook 2010 Exchange 2010 Read Receipt Request for all emails cannot be switched OFF.

I have a strange situation with an Outlook 2010 client using Exchange 2010. The user has Outlook configured so that Under Options/Mail/Tracking - that "Read receipt confirming the recipient has viewed the message" is turned off. Yet everytime she
sends a message, the option to request pops up on the recipient's outlook.
I have tried to toggle the option on and off to no avail. I can switch the Delivery Receipt request on and off and it is no issue.
Can anyone tell me what attribute in ADSIEdit or Exchange is that seems to be stuck ON?

Hi,
I believe you would like to block this only for the user and not for your ORG... ??
Although, you can block this for your entire ORG.
what happens is that the Read receipt contains a "Disposition-Notification-To"
If we get rid of this header we can restrict the receiver to get that prompt.
we can create a Transport rule either for the entire org or for that specific user by making an adjustment in the "exception tab"
for more info refer this blog.

Conversation view in Mail - switch on for *all* folders?

I'm liking the "organize by conversation" option in the new Mail, but unless I'm missing something it looks like I have to switch it on separately or each of my (many!) folders.
Is there a way to just switch it on globally?

I'm afraid that setting is folder specific.
There's a very simple "Info.plist" xml file on disk inside each folder (for example):
~/Library/Mail/V2/[email protected]@imap.gmail.com/Label.mbox/Info.plist
where the status of conversation view for that folder is stored.
Enabled:
<key>DisplayInThreadedMode</key>
<string>yes</string>
Disabled:
<key>DisplayInThreadedMode</key>
<string>no</string>
If you're confortable with shell scripting I guess you could go on about bulk searching & replacing those values from "no" => "yes".
Just remember to backup first and do your tests with the Mail.app turned off.

How do I automatically fetch for all folders in Inbox?

I'm running an iPHone 4 with iOS5. When i retrieve my email, only the inbox retrieves, but not any of the folders in the account. I want to retrieve all the emails to that account.
I searched online, and found this response to a question re iOS3:
iPhone/iPod touch devices with multiple email folders tagged for synchronization, will synchronize only the Inbox folder automatically.
If folder mirroring is enabled on the server, the folders you select for synchronization appear in the Mailboxes list. The Inbox is the only folder that synchronizes automatically. On devices running OS 3.0 or later, however, you may select other folders (excluding Trash) to also synchronize automatically.
Select Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > (account) > Mail Folders to Push, then check the folders you wish to automatically synchronize.
On devices running OS versions older than 3.0, folders other than Inbox will initiate synchronization only when they are opened or when using the reload icon (manually initiated sync).
Does this feature still exist on iOS5?

Just thinking even further, new mail does even need to show up in my Inbox list. I'd be happy if showed up as the number of unread in my Accounts list
