RDP - WebCam cannot be found [Microsoft LifeCam]

Hi,
I can't seem to use my webcam [Life Cam HD] when on RDP in a domain environment using the same domain account, but if i'm on Logmein then no problems, any specific reason behind this? any restrictions involved?
Thanks in Advance

Hi Alaine,
Do you get any error message?
When you use Webcam with the Remote Desktop, make sure you enable Remote Desktop Connection on both the computers. You can use devices and resources that are on or part of my computer, such as my printer, hard disk, or Clipboard, while I'm connected to a
remote computer. Check the settings for the device.
In order to access webcam from the remote computer user might have to use a Third Party software.
As I know, redirection of a webcam is supported when using full RemoteFX VDI capability, but this requires that you have all of the necessary software and hardware to enable full RemoteFX, on both the server as well as client side.
For your reference: Introducing Microsoft RemoteFX USB Redirection: Part 1
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rds/archive/2010/06/10/introducing-microsoft-remotefx-usb-redirection-part-1.aspx
It also seems that some files are corrupted. You may try to reinstall Webcam for Remote Desktop Server for a try.
Hope it helps.

Webcam cannot be found with any software

Hello,
I bought new Macbook Pro 15inch in one month back. When I tested HD camera at the start of using laptop it was functionaly very good. After one month generally usage any software can't find internal HD camera. I tried System profiler. The HD camera wasn't be found. I'm using OS Lion 10.7.1 with latest security update. I replaced original memory 4GB for 8GB and original HDD for Intel SSD. These changes was made by authorized service center. When I ask service center about this problem I got answer It can be hardware problem. Did anyone have same problem with HD camera?
Libor

Correct. Before the policy update it was still looking for the old source version.

Microsoft Lifecam Studio HD not working with skype...

Greetings, I recently upgraded my computer from windows 8 to Windows 8.1.
My webcam works in the microsoft lifecam application, but when I attempt to use it in Skype, I just see the the swirling 'loading' icon for the webcam.
I would like to resolve this as soon as possible
Thanks

When I say that it doesn't work with any webcam software in the desktop, I mean Skype, Windows Live Messenger, LiveCam Studio software, CyberLink YouCam and not even in the Microsoft Silverlight configuration.
I know that the webcam is working because it works in the camera app of metro, and in the sound recorder of the desktop. Of course I can see that the webcam microphone is working, but using any of the above software have no video or audio.
YouCam gives me this error message: "YouCam cannot connect to your webcam ( Microsoft LifeCam Cinema). Try selecting another capture device within settings, or close any applications that may be using this webcam and then restart YouCam."
worked ok up till last week, downloaded Have reinstall all new drivers and Softwear up to date but No LifeCam.EXE File is missing from Software (US)
Microsoft needs to fix this as cam only got as Skype Certified

Microsoft Lifecam VX-500 and...inverted desktop colours.

Today I got an MS Lifecam VX-500 webcam for my old laptop . As soon as I plugged it in, it was immediately recognized by the Arch kernel (2.6.30-ARCH ) and the appropriate driver was loaded.
dmesg:
uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device Microsoft LifeCam (045e:074a)
input: Microsoft LifeCam as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.3/usb1/1-5/1-5.4/1-5.4:1.0/input/input13
When I tried to capture the camera input (by asking VLC player to display the video from the /dev/video0 device) , it refused to cooperate since apparently I was not a member of the user group "video". As soon as I added myself to the group, the camera image displayed perfectly but all the colours of my desktop were inverted. When I closed vlc they switched back to normal. Later on I disconnected the webcam and tried to run skype. Immediately desktop colours were inverted. Same with amarok. When I removed myself from the "video" user group everything came back to normal!
Any ideas?
Thanks for reading this

Installation prob - iTunes folder cannot be found in My Music

Hello all,
I've tried several times over the last few days to install iTunes and keep coming up with the same problem. The error message reads ...
The folder “iTunes” cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the “My Music” folder.
I have checked and the "My Music" folder is there. I've deleted and recreated the folder several times. I've even tried creating an "iTunes" folder in it.
I've read the "Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime software in Windows" page at itunes.com and followed the instructions to download Tweak UI from the Microsoft PowerToys website. Problem is, once I get into Tweak UI and go to "Special Folders", the "My Music" folder doesn't appear in the list. "My Pictures" folder does appear and "My Music" is sitting in the same directory with the same properties as far as I can see by looking via Explorer.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Problem is, once I get into Tweak UI and go to "Special Folders", the "My Music" folder doesn't appear in the list.
some folks with that complication have some joy with the alternate technique from the following Nigel Carpenter post:

There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found

An automation script on one of our QA environments kept tripping on the error: "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found". The same script ran fine against our Production servers (hint, which were "whitelisted").
It took a little time to resolve/trace what was happening (but with the aid of ProcessMonitor and tracing all "pdf"-related file activity...)
The problem lies squarely between McAfee (75%), Adobe (20%) and Microsoft (5%):
NORMAL WORKFLOW. IE (Internet Explorer) when popping a PDF document, has to (1) write the document to the IE cache, then (2) launching and "handing off" the document reference to the Adobe viewer (which might then be able to open the document, et al) -- assuming largely a "synchronous" workflow.
BUT "WAIT", HOLD THE HORSES -- McAfee takes ownership and decides infact "wait for us" (during the workflow), it wants to first perform a virus scan on the document (ahead of writing the document to cache) involving potentially large latency (delay) before making the document available to the system. However, instead of "fessing up"-that their scan may be taking too long, McAfee appears to have taken their work "off-line" in violation of the sychronous interface above. I'm guessing the developers at McAfee might have been trying to hide any extra processing overhead being incurred by assuming they could somehow convert this to an "asychronous" event. (This may also have more reach than just PDF's.)
Unfortunately, the browser's "PDF OPEN"-dialog box pops allowing Adobe to launch-and-open the "as-yet-not-virus-scanned-and-thus-not-yet-cached"-document. Thus clicking the OPEN-button will cause the related "...FILE NOT FOUND"-error to be seen (because the file is still in McAfee "limbo").
Note: If you close the ADOBE reader (but don't yet close the popup-OPEN-dialog) you can click OPEN a second time and it will probably now open the document - which McAfee finally finished scanning!
You can observe all these interactions with ProcessMonitor, and use the monitored file states to adjust the timings of events to reproduce both the failure and non-failure scenarios.
- Best Regards, Ziggy
ps. My assessed distribution of "ownership" of the problem is because ALL these parties should be aggressively resolving this for the customer-base!

What, exactly, were you trying to do when you got it, and how?

ITunes won't open -error: The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created...

Hello,
I am not able to open my iTunes. I was able to use it yesterday. I keep getting the message:
*The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the "My Music" folder.*
I have created a folder called "iTunes" in my "My Music" folder, which does not fix the problem.
I have uninstalled and installed iTunes twice.
I have used the repair option when trying to install iTunes over the top of my current iTunes.
None of these options has fixed the problem.
If anyone knows how to fix this, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!

I found the answer on another board... Below are the parts I found useful (quoted).
Click on Start
Clin on Run
Type in "regedit" Enter
Do this step twice as there are two locations. +(I actually had 4 locations.)+
CTRL F
Type in "My Music"
Double Click and enter the path for where the folder is located.
Then exit.
The exact locations of the 2 entries that I changed are

and
as above - windows - current version - explorer - USER shell folders
I located the location of my iTunes folder (something like this - C:\Documents and Settings\"yourname"\My Documents\My Music\iTunes.
I copied it, and when I found the regedit location referred to, doubleclicked the location and pasted the path in there.

The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created, and is required.

Hello,
I cannot start iTunes. When I do, I get the following error message:
The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created, and is required. the default location for this folder is inside the "My Music" folder.
I have reviewed and gone through the recommendations for this problem, including downloading the WindowsPowerToys Tweak UI. The problem is that the Tweak UI does not know that there is a My Music special folder, so Tweak UI was of no use.
Can someone tell me what I need to do to make my Dell (Dell doesn't know either) understand that I have "My Music" folder on my computer....so it can be seen in my Tweak UI application.
Thank you.
Tim

I have followed these instructions:
If the My Music folder is in the wrong location or incorrectly assigned in the Windows registry, you may see one of the following error messages:
* "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder."
* "The folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the Music folder."
If you see one of the above errors, follow these steps to troubleshoot this:
1. Verify the location of your Windows XP My Music folder. The default location for this folder is
C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music
If you do not have this folder at the default location and have not moved it to another location, consider creating one inside your My Documents folder.
2. Download and install Tweak UI from the Microsoft PowerToys website at http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx Note: This utility is for Windows XP only. Please review the system requirements before installing.
3. Once you have installed Tweak UI, open it from the Start menu.
4. In the column on the left, click on the plus symbol next to My Computer and select Special Folders.
5. In the right pane on the Folderlist, click My Music.
* This is where I run into the problem. My Music does not show up in the *
* right pane pull down set of options. *
6. Click the Change Location button. You may see a warning message appear with precautions for changing this setting; after reviewing the message, click Yes.
7. In the resulting window, browse for the My Music folder as described in step 1, and click OK.
8. Reinstall or open iTunes.

Error message The folder Itunes cannot be found or created and is required"

Help please. I get the message "The folder Itunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the My Music folder". As a result, I cannot get Itunes to load. Have uninstalled and reloaded, repaired etc, all not working as still end up getting same message. Have also made an ITunes folder in My music, all to no avail. No viruses and virus library totally up to date. Getting to stage where I want to throw Ipod in bin and get an Iriver as its driving me insane!!

Here is a copy of the ilounge entries. I got one of my more IT literate guys to do this - but it looked easy when he did it!! important thing is it all came back - was a problem as I had moved an external hard drive so one of the locations detailed below showed the old address.
Good luck!!

ITunes open error: "The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created, ..."

I have a laptop with iTunes installed. My IT guys have our LAN set up so that when I login on our LAN, all files in the "My Documents" folder are syncronized with a copy of those files on our server. When I'm connected to the LAN, iTunes starts and works just fine. I can download music, syncronize my iPod and all features work.
When I disconnect from the LAN and try to start iTunes I get the following error message:
"The folder “iTunes” cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the “My Music” folder."
I had the same problem on a previous laptop and solved it by putting an alias of the iTunes music folder where iTunes was looking for it. Unfortunately, I cannot get the same method to work on my new laptop. I have put aliases of various folders in many different locations hoping to trick iTunes into finding my network alias without success.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any solutions?
Latitude D810 Windows XP

Yes. Step 3 is the key. Thanks...
jtoons: The problem is that iTunes expects the "My
Music" folder to be both available and writable.
That's where the actual library files are stored.
When that folder is not available, you can't run
iTunes.
Since your My Documents folder is on the server, and
the default location for the My Music folder is
inside the My Documents folder, it won't work unless
you can access the server.
The solution to this is to make a local My Music
folder and configure Windows to use that one instead.
Here's how to do it:
1. Download TweakUI from Microsoft.
2. Create a new folder somewhere on your local
computer. Call it My Music.
3. IMPORTANT: Copy the contents (Not the folder
itself! Just the contents!) of the old My Music
folder in your My Documents folder into the new My
Music folder.
3. Using TweakUI, change the system's "My Music"
folder to be the new folder on your local drive.
Follow those instructions precisely and it'll work.
Skip step 3 and you make things annoyingly
complicated.

SSRS SharePoint Integrated error, User cannot be found

We currently have setup an SSRS in SharePoint 2013 integrated mode. We got the error message below when we removed a user from the Groups and Members. I have found from searching the web that this is a bug that happens whenever the report creator has been
removed or deleted from the SharePoint site
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Report Server has encountered a SharePoint error. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.SharePointException: Report Server has encountered a SharePoint error. ---> Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException:
User cannot be found.
Since we are already using SharePoint 2013, I would have thought that this bug has already been fixed. I think it is pretty common to have the report creators leave the company and as a security to remove their profiles from the SharePoint site. Microsoft,
is there a solution to this?

Hi Blusil,
Just as you said, this issue always occurred when user(s) missing or removed from the site that either authored or modified the report(s). As per my understanding, the solution of the issue is adding the user accounts back to the site or change the user
to another one in the site.
If the user had left the company, we can refer to the second solution that override the owner field using PowerShell for that report:

SSIS is not running in 64 bit production server - Error Class cannot be found while running from c# web application

Full error message:
An Integration Services class cannot be found. Make sure that Integration Services is correctly installed on the computer that is running the application. Also, make sure that the 64-bit version of Integration Services is installed if you are running a 64-bit
application
I have developed SSIS package in my development machine where the OS is 64 bit and sql server 2012 is installed.
The package has excel source and oledb destination. Excel files can be both .xls and .xlsx format. Since i want to run both xls and xlsx format i have installed
32 bit Microsoft Acess database engine form the below link, then both xls and xlsx format worked.
.xls - 32 bit
.xlsx - 32 bit and 64 bit is available. So in common i have to run it in 32 bit.
I have set Run64BitRuntime to False and ran package. it is working fine. I cannot set Run64BitRuntime to True and run the packages. Because i have office products installed on my machine which is 32 bit. if try to install 64 bit Microsoft Acess
database engine redistributable pacakage from below link , it is throwing error saying that, already office 32 bit product is installed so uninstall 32 bit product and install 64 bit.
Excel connection string is Ace database engine only. everything works fine.
microsoftcom/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255
Now i am trying to invoke package from c# code by using Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll and it is also working fine in my dev machine.
When i deploy the web application in production am getting the error while invoking package. the full error message is posted in 1st line of this thread.
Then i tried to execute the package in production server by using dtexec utility, it is working fine. I tried both 32 bit and 64 bit dtexec utility by going to specific path (program files(x86) and Program files) via command prompt.
It is all working fine. So the error coming when i invoke from web application. My guess is ManagedDTS causing problem.
Where can i find 64 bit Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll
or is it because of any other problem. i have checked below links, still problem not resolved.

forums.aspnet/t/1990417.aspx?Issue+deploying+SSIS+Package+in+production+web+server

1) "I have set Run64BitRuntime to False and ran package" -> this is not valid outside of your development environment, it is made for simulation purposes as all the dev tools are 32 Bit
2) "Where can i find 64 bit Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll " is basically SSIS. It is quite possibly the culprit. I am inclined to think you attempt to run the package where there no SSIS installed.
