SCCM Replace method migration for XP-to-W7 without creating computer associations?

Hi all
We want to use the Replace Method for our XP-W7 migration but do we have to create a computer association between the old and new machine name for every machine to be migrated (2500+)? If so, this does not appear to be practical because we don’t know what
the new machine name will be for every old machine to be migrated until we image machines with Windows 7, which is likely to be on the same day.
So, how can we use the Replace Method without creating computer associations please?
Best regards
Scott

MDT 2012 SP1 is integrated with ConfigMgr 2012.
We are testing a UDI solution, however, when we click “Preview” on the Refresh stage group we get the error “Unable to launch wizard in preview mode – OSDSetupWizard.exe was not found in the expected path”. This is preventing us from
checking that the changes we have made to the capture/restore settings will work or not. This error does not occur when we "Preview" the NewComputer stage group and we have checked OSDSetupWizard.exe does exist in \\<server>\MDT Toolkit\Tools\x64
and \\<server>\MDT Toolkit\Tools\x86.
1. How do we overcome this error to allow us to preview the Refresh stage group please?
2. Do we need to specify the DEPLOYMENTTYPE variable in the customsettings.ini and if so, do we need 3 different customsettings.ini files for each scenario (DEPLOYMENTTYPE=NewComputer, DEPLOYMENTTYPE=Refresh and DEPLOYMENTTYPE=Replace)?
Kind regards
Scott

Assuming your Itunes is working without problem, use Windows Explorer, right click the music file and choose "Open With", then "Choose Default Programs...", then Itunes and OK.

Hi everyone, I've got a question. I've noticed that Itunes says me exactly the number of times that I've listened a song since I've put it on the library. Well, I've just put on some new music and I was wondering if there is a way to reproduce only the songs that Itunes nerver played without creating a new playlist.

MDT Replace Scenario - Computer Association

I'm in the middle of preparing for a Win7 migration and I had a few questions.
I want to use the Replace Scenario in MDT; this means I will have to use the replace task sequence to backup the users data via USMT on the old computer
and then use a standard task sequence to install Windows 7 and restore the users data on the new computer.
With SCCM you can create computer associations between the old computer and the new computer. However, I'm not sure what needs to be done in MDT to associate the old computer with the new one. I would want to do this so the replace process is more automated.
Here's what I want and #2 is where I need more insight into:
1) Run the Replace task sequence on the old computer running Windows XP. (I will provide the network share and other details to automate this)
2) When I run the standard sequence to install Win7 on the new machine, I would like it to look at the MDT database or something else and see the "relationship" and restore the USMT from the backup from the old computer from step 1, without having
to manually point to the backup.
Any ideas?

Sounds cool.
There is nothing like that out of the box with MDT, however it should be possible with some scripting.
I have done some techniques before where I have created network folders that can be "created' and written by users, but not "read" by other users.
http://xtremeconsulting.com/blog/litetouch-folder-permissions/
Then you can store the saved data in a common file.
I would then create a UserExit script to "search" for saved USMT folders, auto-populating the found values so they appear in the restore wizard page.

What is the replacement method for preventDefault() on iOS?

Using preventDefault() in response to orientationChanging is a well-documented technique for preventing rotation on iOS. What is the recommended replacement method for this call when manually managing device rotation events?
From the release notes: preventDefault() is not honored for the ORIENTATION_CHANGING event on iOS. This is a behavior change from AIR 3.4 and will remain so. (3324338)

Auto-orientation has drastically changed in iOS 6. Some of the auto-orientation callbacks have been completely deprecated in iOS 6. This change affects the screen orientation API's in AIR too and support for the new callbacks have been added in AIR 3.5 beta release. The deprecated callbacks informed the application about the new orientation it was being rotated to. Hence, application could decide whether it wanted to rotate to the new orientation or not. However, the new callbacks do not give us such information. The application is only queried about what orientations are currently supported. If this value returned by the new callbacks matches the new orientation stage is being rotated to, the stage automatically rotates. Otherwise it does not. As a result of this limitation of the new callbacks, support from preventDefault() was deprecated on iOS in AIR 3.5(built with iOS 6 SDK). The application will still receive the ORIENTATION_CHANGING event. But calling preventDefault() inside the ORIENTATION_CHANGING event handler won't prevent the stage from being rotated to the new orientation. It is important to note that apps packaged with iOS 6 and running on iOS 5.1 devices or lower will also see this behavior change of not able to control auto orientation by using preventDefault(). This was done to make this change consistent across iOS devices.

Why does a find and replace method remove whitespace?

I have method that searches for a string in a FM document and replaces it with a variable. If for example, there was a string foobar that I wanted to replace with the variable barfoo. Then, I expect this text:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, foobar consectetur adipiscing elit. Vivamus sed purus urna, ac tristique tortor. Nam auctor tellus non enim pulvinar a vestibulum neque tincidunt.
To be changed to this text:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, barfoo consectetur adipiscing elit. Vivamus sed purus urna, ac tristique tortor. Nam auctor tellus non enim pulvinar a vestibulum neque tincidunt.
However, while the text does do the replace it also removes the whitespace between the variable and the text that appears right after the variable so it actually looks looks like this:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, barfooconsectetur adipiscing elit. Vivamus sed purus urna, ac tristique tortor. Nam auctor tellus non enim pulvinar a vestibulum neque tincidunt.
Why is the find and replace method removing the whitespace and how do I prevent that from happening? The method is provided below.
function FindAndReplaceString(pDoc, findString, replaceVariable)
    if (typeof pDoc != 'undefined'&&typeof findString != 'undefined'&&typeof replaceVariable != 'undefined'&&pDoc.ObjectValid()&&findString.length>0&&replaceVariable.length>0)
        var vVarFmtStatus=checkVarFmStatus (pDoc, replaceVariable);
        if (vVarFmtStatus=='In Doc')
            var tr = new TextRange();
            var findParams = new PropVals();
            var frame = pDoc.MainFlowInDoc.FirstTextFrameInFlow;
            var restoreTR = pDoc.TextSelection;
            tr.beg.obj = tr.end.obj = frame.FirstPgf;
            tr.beg.offset = tr.end.offset = 0;
            findParams = AllocatePropVals(1);
            findParams[0].propIdent.num = Constants.FS_FindText;
            findParams[0].propVal.valType = Constants.FT_String;
            findParams[0].propVal.sval = findString;
            tr = pDoc.Find(tr.beg, findParams);
            var vLoopCounter=0;
            while(FA_errno === Constants.FE_Success&&vLoopCounter++< 1000)
                pDoc.TextSelection = tr;
                pDoc.Clear(0);
                var newVar = pDoc.NewAnchoredFormattedVar(replaceVariable, tr.beg);
                var varLength = newVar.TextRange.end.offset - newVar.TextRange.beg.offset;
                tr.beg.offset += varLength;
                tr = pDoc.Find(tr.beg, findParams);
            if (vLoopCounter>0)
                Log (vLogFileName, 'In the document \''+pDoc.Name+'\', the string \''+findString+'\' was replaced with the variable \''+replaceVariable+'\' '+vLoopCounter+' times.\n')
            if (vLoopCounter>1000)
                recordErrors (vErrorLog, 'ERROR: In the document "'+pDoc.Name+'", the find and replace operation was stopped after executing '+vLoopCounter+' times. The term being searched for is "'+findString+'" the replacement variable is "'+ replaceVariable+'".')
            pDoc.TextSelection = restoreTR;
            pDoc.ScrollToText(restoreTR);
            } else {
                recordErrors (vErrorLog, 'ERROR: The find and replace operation failed because the variable '+replaceVariable+' does not exist in the following doc: '+pDoc.Name)
        } else {
            recordErrors (vErrorLog,'Invalid or unitialized parameter passed to function FindAndReplaceString')

Understanding Regex replace method call involving delegate

Hello,
I am trying to understand the $regex.replace static method call below (I came across this code snippet in the cookbook).
$replacer = {
param($match)
$chars = $match.Groups[0].Value.ToCharArray()
[Array]::Reverse($chars)
$chars -join ''
$regex = [Regex] "\w+"
$regex.Replace("Hello World wide", $replacer)
What I do not understand is the below overloaded definitions for replace method do not seem to match the above replace call. So how exactly is this working? The above call has 2 parameters passed where as none of the below overloads have less than
3 parameters.
PS C:\WINDOWS> [regex]::replace
OverloadDefinitions
static string Replace(string input, string pattern, string replacement)
static string Replace(string input, string pattern, string replacement, System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions options)
static string Replace(string input, string pattern, string replacement, System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions options, timespan matchTimeout)
static string Replace(string input, string pattern, System.Text.RegularExpressions.MatchEvaluator evaluator)
static string Replace(string input, string pattern, System.Text.RegularExpressions.MatchEvaluator evaluator, System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions options)
static string Replace(string input, string pattern, System.Text.RegularExpressions.MatchEvaluator evaluator, System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions options, timespan
matchTimeout)

What you are looking at are the static methods ([regex]::) and their appropriate parameters which in this case have a minimum of 3 parameters to properly perform the Replace using the input, pattern and replacement
value. If you were to use the constructor of [regex] to create a pattern like this:
$Regex = [regex]'\w'
You will see that the Replace method here allows for only 2 parameters because you have already satisfied the pattern when you created the Regex object.
$Regex.Replace
OverloadDefinitions
string Replace(string input, string replacement)
string Replace(string input, string replacement, int count)
string Replace(string input, string replacement, int count, int startat)
string Replace(string input, System.Text.RegularExpressions.MatchEvaluator evaluator)
string Replace(string input, System.Text.RegularExpressions.MatchEvaluator evaluator, int count)
string Replace(string input, System.Text.RegularExpressions.MatchEvaluator evaluator, int count, int startat)

GObject : Replace Method

Hello. I am working with labview scripting in order to create a script that will replace all selected indicators with an indicator from a ctl file. However, I can't seem to figure out the GObject method "Replace". Attached is my current script. I was wondering if anyone could let me know what I am doing wrong or if what I am trying to do is even possible. Thanks.
Solved!

A few tips.
It looks like you are using the selection on the BD, therefore the objects you find will be ControlTerminals. You need to get the corresponding Control property and call its replace method.
To handle this, and allow for other random objects in your selection I would use To More Specific Class to cast each object to a ControlTerminal. If there is no error, then get the Control Property and call the replace method. If there is an error, simply do nothing. This way if there is a wire or two in the selection you are ok.
It also appears that you are using this from the Tools Menu, which is cool. You can add a check of the VI.FPIsFrontmost property to detect if you are calling from the FP or BD. If it is the FP, you can simply cast everything in the SelList[] to a Control and for the successful ones call the Replace method.

If you want to use the email address that you used on the first account then you will need to remove it from that first account before you can do so e.g. via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's or via http://appleid.apple.com - you can create a new email address via http://gmail.com or http://hotmail.com to replace it with.

SCCM 2007-2012 migration job

Hi,
We have an empty SCCM 2012 R2 environment (only testmachines in it).
Now I would like to migrate some first Windows 7 machines by pushing a SCCM 2012 client to it. Therefore first the collections and packages of SCCM 2007 should be migrated.
So I started an SCCM 2012 Collection migration job from SCCM 2007 to 2012:
1.Selected only the Windows 7 collections (only those should be migrated, not the XP ones)
2.selected software assigned to it (it comes from a DFS-share \\ourcompany\share
3.all with default values, except "Enable programs for deployment"
My questions:
1.It took only 10 minutes to complete (share is 100 GB) but I see now software is not distributed to distribution point.
=> Is that normal? Should I run distribute to distribution point for all packages are rerun migration job with differen values?
2.After step 1, I can now migrate a Windows 7 computer fro SCCM 2007 to 2012, right?
Everything looks fine to me. There is also the object migration but don't think I need it.Just want to doublecheck.
Please advise.
J.
Jan Hoedt

#1: that's default behavior. Packages are migrated, but not distributed to DPs automatically. That's up to you right now.
#2: yes, but that's independent from step #1. You can install the CM12 client to the clients anytime.

Move Mailboxes from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 (Could not find a valid mailbox migration for esta organization)

Hi all, I am in full migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 and everything went correctly.
I have migrated several mailboxes and are working well. But a few days ago, when I try to migrate a mailbox I get the following error and can not migrate:
"Could not find a valid mailbox migration for this organization"
Do you know that you can be?

Microsoft Certified IT Professional Server Administrator

Hi,
From your description, the issue should be related to the migration mailbox. I recommend you check if the following account is existed in ADUC.
Migration.8f3e7716-2011-43e4-96b1-aba62d229136
If this account does not exist, you need to run setup /prepareAD and then enable this migration mailbox to check the result.
Hope this can be helpful to you.

Where can I buy a genuine apple replacement battery (A1309) for my Mid 2010 17" Macbook Pro?

Where can I buy a genuine apple replacement battery (A1309) for my Mid 2010 17" Macbook Pro? There are used batteries on ebay that don't appear genuine. There are some third-party knock offs. The apple store seems to believe they can replace it, but I have to make a reservation at the silly Genius Bar just to have them tell me how much it's gonna cost, not to mention then likely wait for them to order the battery and install it. I'm perfectly capable of installing it myself. I just need to know where I can order it?
Thanks,
Andrew

Yeah, that's what I've finally decided. I was kidna super frustrated because the first apple store I called wouldn't even tell me a price or tell me if they could replace the battery without a Genius Bar appointment, and as I would have to take off work and drive acros town--and I don't have a car so I'd have to borrow one--that was pretty annoying. That call left me pricing linux laptops. I called another store to see if I'd have better luck, and the initial answer was the same, but the girl relented under some trying-to-be-nice-but-clearly-annoyed pressure, and she gave me the answers I needed: yes, they should have the battery in stock and it should be a same-day replacement that should cost $179.
It just *****, really, because there's so much about Apple that I used to love, and I'm watching it kinda melt away under their success in the mobile market. As a professional user, there's less and less reason to stick with them. Instead of being the best they can be, I feel like they're just trying to be flashier and just a little better than the other mediocre computer companies. Ugh. Anyway, now I'm ranting.
