Popup printing message when switching users

I'm giving my old Air to my brother, so I set up a new account for him. When I log in to the new account, I get the following message:
Failed to listen for incoming Popup Jobs. You will not be able to use Popup printing for the duration of this session. Please report this incident to a system administrator
It appears in a small window. Every few seconds, an identical window will come up; by a minute, the screen is filled with them!
A bit of Googling indicated I should remove Pharos software. I tried that--I looked in the appropriate library folder--and nothing was there. Also, this problem didn't exist on my old account. (Pharos doesn't show up in my login items either.)
Weirder still, if I restart the computer and choose my brother's account at the login screen, it opens error-free. But then, if I switch back to MY account without restarting, I get the same pop-ups!
It's a pain to have to restart to switch users. Someone please help!

Ok, so it turned out it was Pharos. At first, when I did what the post below said, I could not find the uninstaller. It turns out it's a hidden file. Tech support told me to open Finder, press cmd+shift+g, type /Library/Application Support/Pharos/Utilities and press enter.
This way, I did find the uninstaller. I ran it, uninstalling both components, and afterwards everything is fine.

Error in sql server with a trigger (I want to display a customize message, when the user left a blank field or null) How can I do?

How I display a customize message(with a trigger)when a user left a blank field? I want to the stop the insert statament if the user left the status field in blank. I create a trigger but now I can't enter a row, i used an instead trigger
too but doesn't work. I want to display a customize message when the user left the
status field in blank or null.
I have the following code:
CREATE TRIGGER [dbo].[BLANKFIELD]
ON [dbo].[Status]
FOR INSERT
AS
BEGIN
IF (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM inserted WHERE Status IS NULL) =1
PRINT 'Please Fill the Status field is required'
Rollback;
END

I agree with other comments that you should do this with specifying that the column is NOT NULL to prevent it from being NULL and a constraint if you don't want it to be blank (spaces or the empty string - note that the empty string is not the same thing
as NULL).
But for completeness, the reason your trigger does not ever allow you to enter a row is the code
IF (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM inserted WHERE Status IS NULL) =1
PRINT 'Please Fill the Status field is required'
Rollback;
Since you don't have a begin/end block after IF, the only conditionally executed statement is the one immediately following the IF (that is the PRINT). So the Rollback is always executed whether or not the IF is true and so all updates are rejected.
So if you were to do this in a trigger you could do something like the following
CREATE TRIGGER [dbo].[BLANKFIELD]
ON [dbo].[Status]
FOR INSERT
AS
BEGIN
IF EXISTS(SELECT * FROM inserted WHERE Status IS NULL)
BEGIN
PRINT 'Please Fill the Status field is required';
Rollback;
END
END
(As José noted, there can be more than one row in the inserted pseudo table, so you don't want to test whether the COUNT = 1, instead just whether one or more rows exist where the Status is null. If you want to prevent Status is NULL, or all
spaces, or the empty string, then your IF statement would be
IF EXISTS(SELECT * FROM inserted WHERE ISNULL(Status, '') = '')

Have to reconnect to airport when switching users

Recently I set up my HP printer to print via wireless rather than USB connection.
Ever since then, if users are switched, or if the computer is waking for sleep, I have to reselect my airport network from the menu.
Under "Network" system preferences, under "Network Port Configurations," Airport is at the top of the list and is the only connection with a checkmark.
In the same preference pane, under "Airport", I have the following 2 options selected:
--Automatically join an open network
--Remember any network this computer has joined
Any ideas how to fix this? Basically just an annoyance at this point--it's not like it drops while you are using it.

Similar issue here - just tried it and i went into the PPPoE options and in there I had " Disconnect when user logs out" and "Disconnect when switching user accounts" checked - Unchecked both of those - hit apply and so far looks good.

System reboots when switching users.

I have looked through the boards and can't find reference to this problem.
When switching users in Windows XP Pro SP2, from a power user to my admin acct. the sys will reboot after core center loads. The other users are not looged off of XP by way of fast user switching.
If other users log on while the admin acct. is still active, no problem and I can also log back into the admin acct. w no problem.
Additionally when logging in to a non-admin acct. the following error messages appear.
Hadrware Monitor failed to load Drive 1 .... Invalid handle
(Core Center) No hardware Monitor .... Invalid handle
(VBIOS) FLASH_MMIO_MAP DeviceIOControl Error.
If the items are not connected please piont me to the proper forum.

First late me comment on what a great library this forum has. It would seem that most issues are covered and often repeated. Some time may be involved to find a solution, but hard work is it's own reward.
Looking through the threads I've seen several referencves to doing a clean install after installing a new MOBO. I have not done this yet. So I have prepared a slipstreamed Win XP SP2 CD (as suggested in the threads). Before I continue I have to ask for a few suggestions.
First-- I will be removing all attached components and periphials (video,sound and externals) withe the exception of the mouse and keyboard. I will set the bios to boot from the CD. So what I would like to know is if my HD config is acceptable and is there a preferred order to connect other devices after install and all updates?
The 20 gig HD has been reformatted (NTFS) in 2 partitions, Zdrive is 1500mb for swap/page file(as per forum). This drive wasn't doing anything on my sys anyway. I only used it to try linux and I didn't have the patience to figure it out.
After all drivers are installed is it possible to use the programs installed on the old drive, or should the be re-installed also. I can save all important data if this must be done (ie. saved games, documents, photos etc.).
Last this is a shared machine w/teens. I have been through a lot to eliminate and protect my self from adware/ spyware and will continue to do so. I would like to keep the user profiles (Power Users) so that games and other software can be used without needing the admin password. This may be off topic but any suggestions would be helpful.

How much free space do you have on your hard disk? And have you ever performed a backup & clean install after an OS X upgrade?

How to Customize the Error Message when a user enters a wrong password

Hi Gurus
Pls Help out me that
How to Customize the Error Message when a user enters a wrong password ?
I need the Help to Customize the messege ?
How we can do
Pls Tell me indetail

Firstly many appologies I have given you slightly duff information here, I had been editing the file above for email notification texts not logon / password texts.
The file you need is actually a portal .par file and can be found in the deployment/pcd directory. The file you need is called com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par (with a .bak extension at this time).
You need to copy this file to a local machine and unzip the contents. The files you need to edit are contained in a further jar file which can be found in the \PORTAL-INF\lib directory - it is called umelogonbase.jar. It too needs to be extracted and the file you need to edit is logonMessages_xx.properties (where the xx is the language code you are using).
In this file you will find lines like:
NUMERIC_REQUIRED=Invalid new password (must contain digits)
You need to identify which texts you wish to modify and edit the text to the right of the equals sign. Once complete rezip the umelogonbase.jar file and then the com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par (this time name it without the .bak extension. Then logon to the portal and upload the new par and you should see your new logon messages.

'Interference' when switching users

I recently encountered this problem where, when switching users, the screen looks like TV interference for a split second instead of the cube effect. It doesn't always happen, just sporadically. After looking on the forum and contacting the helpline chat with the support team, the iMac was taken in and a new logic board fitted.
Upon returning home I discovered that it stills happens, still sporadically but it happens. This would seem to eliminate the fact that it could have been the start of the leaking capacitors as this is a brand new board ( I did check that it was different from the last one ).
I have also read on here that it could be a software issue in Tiger, as with others I don't recall it happening with Panther, but my mind might be playing tricks ?!?!
Has anyone come across this, gone through the same solution process, and still have the issue ? Have you come across a solution ?
Many thanks.

Just to be clear, I installed the 2GB of RAM the day that I bought my iMac and neveer saw the problem until just before my midplane failed. Given all the info about the industry-wide capacitor problem, I seriously doubt that the RAM is related to any of this, including the interference.
The midplane issue involves failing capacitors which could affect many parts of the midplane, including the video. The failing caps might be related to the video issue. All I know for sure is that I saw the scattered picture, then my midpplane went. After it was replaced, I didn't see it for a while, but it did eventually return with no other symptoms, so my assumption is that it is unrelated.

T60 Trackpoint Scroll Disfunctional when Switch User

I've been experiencing the issue where if a single user is logged into XP, the trackpoint scroll feature works flawlessly, BUT, if you use the XP switch user function and have 2 people logged in at the same time, the trackpoint scroll feature breaks down and doesn't work right.
This is what I've found (short of re-booting the system): User1 logged on --> Switch User to User2, the scroll feature will work, BUT if you Switch User back to User1 the trackpoint scroll doesn't work anymore So, to get it to work right for User1 again, Switch User back to User2 and Logoff --> Log back in with User1 and should work again.
I've done all the driver uninstall/re-install excercises and have tried the native synaptic drivers too.... This just seems to be the way this works (unfortunately).
Ironically, my old T30 had seemingly the same hardware, but I never had this problem with it... it was seemless when Switching Users. Funny, I bought a ThinkPad T because I love the trackpoint... I wish they would get it to work right
So, anyone else experience this? Any fixes?

Hi,
If you are using WAD, u have options "Number of data rows displayed at once" and "Number of data columns displayed at once" in the web item properties of the Table web item. There you can specify the count u want. This will surely get u the needed output wherein u can just scroll down/up/right/left according to ur convinience.
Assign points if this helps u...
Regards,
Koundinya Karanam.

How do you disable i messaging when switching to a non iphone?

How do you disable i messaging when switching to a non iphone?

Nope, that doesn't actually do the trick. It might keep i messages from going to your i phone but still won't allow them to go to your new device.

Flash Player Installs but Uninstalls When Switching Users

I use Vista Business on my home computer. We have multiple users on our computer. I do not have a problem installing the Flash Player, but when we switch users or restart the computer, the player does not work. We used IE7 and recently IE8 and Flash 10.0.22.87.
After switching users or restarting, when we visit a website that needs flash, we get a message that we don't have flash. If we immediately follow the link to download flash, we get the message that installation was successful but the completion movie does not show. We have to close the browser to reinstall from the abobe website.
We have a temporary fix. We double click on FlashUtil10b.exe in C:\windows\system32\Macromed\Flash. That works until the next time we switch users or restart the computer.
The player does not stop working if a single users exits IE and then opens it later.
I have tried the troubleshooting methods in Abode Support.

Windows moving and shrinking when switching users in Mavericks

My wife and son share the same macbook air. When they switch user accounts, often windows are mysteriously moved and made into a smaller size. Seems like some kind of glitch. Is this happening to other people?

Hi there.
I had a similar problem with the Dock. Try my solution mentioned here (use Terminal to 'kill' the Dock).
https://discussions.apple.com/message/26090676#26090676
Killing the Dock might be enough to bring everything else back into line (your background picture looks similar to how mine used to look -- cut off).
Enjoy!

Why does the screen background picture get reset to default when switching user

iMac with OS X 10.6.8
I have several user accounts on this iMac, each with a different wallpaper chosen from a common folder (library/desktop/nature) in the top level of the hard drive. (Which exists – can always reset background picture from this folder)
When I switch from one user account to another, the wallpaper picture, set on the previous login, appears for a moment and then is immediately replaced by the default blue.
This happens when switching from any user to another. I tried restarting the system but the problem is still there.
This problem just suddenly started and there have been no upgrades or changes to OS X.
Ideas appreciated!!

I've found the answer.
Today, the problem suddenly appeared on my other Mac, which made me look at recent apps..
I installed Team Viewer a month ago, (which is a great app apart from this) so quit it and removed it from the dock. Problem solved!!
The odd thing is that the problem appeared only after I had been using Team Viewer for some weeks.

Monitor settings lost when switching user accounts.

Hi! I just recently noticed that every time i switch user accounts, my monitor settings get corrupted.
There are 2 user accounts in my ibook. One account is used for work while the other one is used for home purposes. The work account has a specific monitor setting which is calibrated to our workstations. The other account has default settings on it.
My question is that when I switch users, the settings for my work account gets corrupted. I also can't change the settings without having to restart the book.
I already repaired permissions and zapped the pram. The same thing still happens.
Thanks in advance!

Hello Chuck!
I've had this problem too. Like you, I managed to navigate to do a restart, but nothing else would make the mouse cursor reappear.
Bruce, I wasn't using Biggy, PinPoint or any of the other mouse visibility things, simply the magnification provided by System Preferences.
I put it down to a fault on 10.4.4—a very buggy release— and haven't yet been able to reproduce it on 10.4.5.
I suggest you send a fault report to Apple ([email protected]), explaining all the circumstances. Try always undoing the cursor zoom before switching users (yes, that's a pain too!!!). And if I manage to reproduce the problem, I promise I'll send in a fault report too!
