Running commands with powershell - randomly need to press Enter for the command to continue

Hi,
I have noticed quiet a few times now that when i run some commands in a powershell window, the execution seems to hang and if i press enter the rest of the command is executed.
It does it for such as simple thing as
xcopy \\source \\dest
repadmin /syncall /Adep
The commands are executed but i need to press enter at some point (and multiple times) for the command to complete.
Anyone have seen this kind of behavior?

Something very similar to this came up recently, so I'll throw it out there.  Do you have "QuickEdit Mode" enabled for your PowerShell console?  If so, when you click your mouse somewhere in the window, it starts to select text to be copied or
pasted, and your window title will change from (for example) "Windows PowerShell" to "Select Windows PowerShell".  When you press enter, you copy whatever was highlighted to the clipboard, and the console goes back to normal.

  • I have 2 point security for AppleID. My iPhone 4S is listed as my trusted phone to text. No tel. no. is given. I am updating to iPhone 6Plus with same tel. no. Do I need to change anything for the sign in verification?

    Of course You can also add your iPhone telephone # as a trusted device.
    This way when you insert your SIM card into any phone, Apple will automatically recognize your cell phone # as a
    trusted device (may be handy if iphone breaks but you insert SIM card into another phone).
    HOWEVER:
    Having also your iPhone as a trusted device, is convenient if you travel and use a different SIM card
    at destination. This way you can still use the iphone for verification, even though you are using a different
    phone #.

  • HT1212 I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to ATT store today, they put a new sim card in it. but now itunes needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.

    I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to an AT&T store today, they put a new sim card in it. and told me to go home, log on to itunes, and restore the phone to "factory settings".But itunes says the phone is locked and it needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.
    Any workaround? Or, am I doing something wrong here?
    Thanks so much.

    Sounds like you may be the owner of a new phone!  If you don't need or want it and no one claims it you probably can sell it. Check eBay to see what the going rate is.
    You are to be commended for at least trying to find the owner. Many wouldn't. 
    Best.

  • I need an app or software that records the date/time each time a write something and press enter. This needs to be quick so I can continue writing right after I press enter, and the date/time is inserted for each word. Does this sort of software exist?

    I need an app or software that records the date/time each time a write something and press enter. This needs to be quick so I can continue writing right after I press enter, and the date/time is inserted for each word. Imagine a spreadsheet - each time a write something in a cell and press enter to go into the next cell, I need the app/software to automatically insert the corresponding dat and time. Does this sort of software exist?

    No one here is going to do anything about it. Send feedback to Apple.

  • Need best Architecture design for the following scenario

    Hi Experts,
    I need best architecture design for the following scenario:
    Sender: Mail
    Receiver: if sender body contain u201DApproveu201D, then call SOAP adapter, If SOAP adapter execute successfully, then  send Mail(SOAP adapter executed successfully) and SMS .  So receiver is SOAP, Mail and SMS.
    My current approach issue:
    Three message mapping:
    Mapping1: mail to SOAP
    Mapping2: mail to Mail
    Mapping3: mail to SMS
    In interface determinant>u201DSelect all three operation mappingu201D> u201Cselect order at runtimeu201D.
    Issue in current approach: For me first SOAP adapter should complete successfully, after that only my Mail and SMS operation mapping should execute:
    But problem is before success of SOAP adapter engine, Mail and SMS mapping completed or integration engine executed.
    Note: There is possible to fail the SOAP request in adapter engine.
    Kindly help me --> u201CAm I going correct way or want to change the architectureu201D?
    Thanks for advance!!
    Regards, Kumar

    What do you mean by successful execution of soap call?  Are you talking about Successful response (happy flow) from the soap call instead of application error ? Then based on the response you want to decide sending mail and sms.  How big call is your soap ?  If your soap interface is very simple I can give the other possible way.
    Sender sends the message, use mapping  to read the content and then do soap call in the mapping itself and after seeing the soap response decide about two receivers (mail and SMS).  If your soap call is very simple one, you can go for it. Otherwise I would not recommend this. The reason is you loose some visibility regards to monitoring during soap call in the mapping.
    Other option is go for CCBPM.  Here you receive the message, use send step to soap interface which is sync step. Then after seeing the response create another block with fork steps each for two senders mail and sms. If response bad then dont proceed or execute the next block. Simply use exeception or control step to jump out from the block,

    We have user defined PA characteristics.  If there is  new characteristic we update the custom lists through KES1.
    Lack of a match in this table, leads either to no description or the error you are describing.
    good luck

  • Trigg the 'Query' button when pressing 'Enter' on the keyboard

    I have a form with 2 buttons, 'query' and 'reset'.
    I would like that the 'query' button is triggerd (pressed) when the user presses 'Enter' on the keyboard. In regular html I think this is accomplished if the button is a 'submit' rather than a 'button' type, but I haven`t found a way to edit the
    type of button in Portal.
    Users belive it`s very annoying to have to move the mouse over the 'query' button to execute the query, and would rather like to just press 'Enter'.
    I`ve tried to use a javascript (onKeyPress), but if you make a javascript in Portal, you`re not allowed to add this to your button, only as an 'form-' or 'field validation' in a textbox.
    Is there anyone who knows a way to get this functionality?
    Regards,
    Orjan

  • I am trying to use an external HD and need to configure it for the MAC. Can someone explain how to configure the HD (Western Digital - My Passport SE)?

    Can someone help explain how to add an external HD to the Mac? I have a Western Digital My Passport SE and need to configure if for the MAC and add it to the HD location on my Mac.

    Connect the external drive to the Mac. You can do that while the Mac is on, (If the drive is one that has to be plugged into a wall outlet do that too and turn the power on.) If there is a light on the drive it should turn on.
    Now double click on the hard drive icon - top left of the screen of your computer. When it opens look for the Applications folder. Double click that. Next look for a folder called Utilities. Double click. In there you will see a file called Disk Utility.app. Double click on that.
    You will now see something like this, with two items on the left. The second one is your new drive.
    Select it - one click. And click on Erase - one of the buttons at the top, You will see this.
    You must select the Format, it's a drop down - the one shown in the image above is best. You can change the name from Untitled if you want. The name can be changed later if you prefer.
    At this point look at the bottom right. There is a button there called Erase. Click on it. Then go get yourself a cup of coffee - this will take a few minutes.
