Set compatibility list to default to IE9 instead of 7

I need to deploy some sites to run under compatibility mode as IE9 under IE11. The issue I am facing is that when setting is deployed through GPO, it defaults to IE7. Is there anyway that I can tell IE11 to run sites that are in the compatibility list
to run as IE9 and not IE7?

Hi dom,
Besides Enterprise Mode, you can also try the GPO setting listed below:

As mentioned in my OP, the GPO settings only allow IE 7 compatibility

[LENOVO Y50-70] How To Set NVIDIA Card as Default Graphic Adapter

I have just bought Lenovo Y50-70. But i wonder how to set NVIDIA Card as default Graphic Adapter instead using Intel Card. Thanks

hi monx,
Welcome to the Forums.
The Y50-70 uses Nvidia Optimus Technology to automatically switch between the Intel GPU (for power saving) and Nvida GPU (for maximum performance).
To manually set the default graphics adapter, you will need to set this inside the Nvidia Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings.

HT4356 How can I set the default to draft instead of normal printing?

I'd like to do most of my printing in Draft mode to save ink. How do I set that as the default, or even change it on the fly, when printing from the iPad Mini to an AirPrint printer? I have an HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus.
Thanks!

I've got the printer's default set to draft and that works well for printing from the computer.
AirPrint seems to override that and always prints in Normal mode.

How to set Compatibility Mode for a single site in ie10

This question was originally posted on the Answers forum -
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie10-windows_7/how-to-set-compatibility-mode-for-a-single-site-in/187152e3-142a-4d96-8d1b-af82ef571eec
I am having problem with getting ie10 to set ie9 compatibility for a single site (sharepoint.contoso.com).
When I add this website in Compatibility View Settings (Alt > Tools > Compatibility View Settings > 'Add this Website') it adds the domain 'contoso.com' and not the individual website (sharepoint.contoso.com).
This cause other sites (www.contoso.com) to be configured to use compatibility mode. Because this is a separate site (different web server) to the site sharepoint.contoso.com (sharepoint 2010 server) we need different compatibility settings.
Using a different example to explain the issue -
Microsoft has three websites that are different websites created by different developers written in different programming languages and they only work with certain browsers.
microsoft.com (Website1 created by Developer1) - compatible with ie8/ie9/ie10
msdn.microsoft.com (Website2 created by Developer2) - compatible with ie8/ie9
technet.microsoft.com (Website3 website created by Developer3) - compatible only with ie10
The only thing the three website share is the URL contains 'microsoft.com'.
Marking 'msdn.microsoft.com' to run in compatibility mode affects the other 2 websites - mainly technet.microsoft.com which will not work now since it only runs in pure ie10 mode.
Should you be able to add an individual site to the compatibility list instead of all sites that have .microsoft.com in the URL? Am I missing a simple setting in the ie10?
As a workaround I am using the F12 Developer Tools to set the Browser Mode which temporary sets the compatibility mode. However this is not a nice solution to the end users at our organisation.

You could start your own thread. Then if you got that answer and it was marked Answered you would have the ability to unmark it. The OP of this one seems satisfied. Also note that this is TechNet. Consumers can get help on Answers

Oh! I wrote it wrong: I should have said: This is not solved for NON-AD environments. No demands what so ever to use Window 7/8 professional in a small corporation or on a big corporation with Island of smaller departments for example offshore.
The problem is that the thread is not "Answered" by the OP, its is marked answered by a moderator (and same moderator that did the answer) so no way of telling if the OP is satisfied.
But you are right in the fact that I am almost kidnapping the thread. But a complete answer would benefit all in this case I would presume.

Set IE 9 as default

does anyone have a .REG file they can post that will set IE9 as the default browser on Windos 7 (x86) ? GPO's don't see to solve this problem. We have many users with Chrome and Chrome set itself as the default so we want to make sure
everyone has IE as the default.
mqh7

Hi
If you open IE and change it in the settings or in control panel change the default programs.
So changing the GPO here does not affect the machine? If you run a GPupdate /force what happens?
1. Open the Start menu, go into the "Administrative Tools" folder and select "Group Policy Management."
2. Right-click on your primary Group Policy Object from the list on the left side of the window and choose the "Edit" option. This will launch the Group Policy Object Editor tool.
3. Open the "User Configuration" and "Windows Settings" folders.
4. Right-click on the entry labeled "Internet Explorer Maintenance" and select "Preference Mode."
5. Double-click on the "Programs (Preference Mode)" icon to view the additional Internet Explorer settings.
6. Click on the radio button next to "Import the Current Program Settings" and then press "Modify Settings."
7. Click on the "Make Default" button in the "Default web browser" section of the window.
8. Press "OK" twice to save the Group Policy Object settings. Now Internet Explorer will automatically be the default browser for all computers on the local network.
Hope this helps. Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

Date and Time column in custom lists - is default time possible?

I've created a custom list and included a column using the Date and Time field. I have this set up to default to "Today's Date." But, is there any way to also have this default to today's time? While the date will default, the time must be manually
selected using dropdown boxes.
We want this field to default to the date and time but also allow users to change the date and time if necessary. This is why we're using this instead of the "Created by" field, which is not editable.
Has anyone found a solution to this?
Thanks!

How do I set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2, and keep that system of numbered lists saved?

I have tried to set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2 but have not succeeded. I have read similar questions concerning this but this has not helped me...
When I say numbered lists I mean something extremely important and simple, for instance:
1. Introduction
1.1. Background
1.2. Purpose and Questions
2. The Legality of Clause X
2.1. Legality under Article 101.1
2.2. Legality under Article 101.3
And so on...
Heading 1. is selected as "Heading", 1.1 is selected as "Heading 2", and if I had 1.1.1 it would be selected as "Heading 3" and so on...
I have navigated my way to the Format window, and under the tab "Style" and down to "Bullets & Lists". I have here selected the following: Numbered, Numbers, 1. 2. 3. 4., Tiered Numbers, Continue from previous.
There are several problems with this currently.
First, based on the example it becomes "2. Background" when it should be "1.1 Background" instead.
Second, after writing some body text between the headings and then select a new heading, all the previously selected settings I mentioned above in "Bullets & Lists" have to be reselected.
So, how do I set numbered lists for headings, or so called sub-headings, in Pages 5.2? And how do I keep that selected system of numbered lists saved so I don't have to retype it for every new heading I type? (e.g. so that Pages knows that every time I choose Heading 2, I want it to number the heading in the way selected)
Obviously, manually writing the numbers for every heading is not a viable option, as it makes table of contents problematic and is simply tedious. You need an automatic way of doing it, especially if you write long documents where keeping headings in order is absolutely essential.
Also, reverting back to previous Pages versions (like v. 9 I think?) is not an option as that does not exist on my recently purchased Macbook Pro.
I need to be able to do this on Pages 5.2 and do it automatically.
I appreciate any help with this.

iWork '09 is not "outdated" it still works and works extremely well and whilst not perfect with MsWord it is far far better than Pages 5.2 which has a stream of major issues with exporting. It is also way better and faster to use than Microsoft Office.
So what is your time and work actually worth? If it is less than $19.99 for 6 months, you may as well just chuck it in and take that job on minimum wages.
You are assuming things for Office 2014 with absolutely no inside knowledge. Much as we assumed Pages 5 was going to be the long awaited improvement, but ended up being a downgrade to match the iOS version, Microsoft is headed the same way with their mobile versions.
This is not like getting the "latest" pair of pants where you go with the crowd and throw out your cigarette legs which replaced the flares, which replaced your low cuts which replaced your cigarette legs, which replaced…
This is work.
If it does the job and does it well, use it. There is nothing out there to really match what Pages '09 does. Yet.
LibreOffice can do most but not all, but has a UI that only a mother could love. It's great redemption is that it uses both open formats and the standard Microsoft formats and is under active development. It also opens and saves to just about everything. When they finally work out the Pages formats, I'm sure they will open those as well.
I use a lot of professional software. Just because the publisher's marketing department says change the product so we can sell more, doesn't mean you have to pay any attention whatsoever. Adobe being a classical example. Most designers are just ignoring their latest subscription based bloatware and getting on with their work.

ITunes is no longer listed in Default Programs in Vista

After accepting the latest update to iTunes (7.6.029) + QuickTime this afternoon, there are several registry keys associated with iTunes and QuickTime that no longer have the appropriate permissions set which I believe is the main reason why iTunes is no longer listed in Default Programs in Vista. It also constantly alerts me that it's not the default player for audio files and if I'd like to go to Default Programs control panel to fix it. If I say yes, I get a blank screen in the details because it's trying to point to the properties of the once-listed iTunes in the Default Programs screen. I know I can disable the notification, but it's just evident of larger issues with the software.
Anyone else experience this with a fix? I've seen many, many posts when Googling this problem about the Default Programs in Vista not listing iTunes, other problems associated with registry keys for iTunes and QuickTime that aren't editable, etc.
I actually discovered this after the update when one of my sidebar gadgets would no longer launch iTunes. I performed a system restore to this morning before the update and most everything worked again. However, I had to reinstall iTunes because it warned me that it couldn't launch because some of the necessary files were missing. After reinstalling it, the sidebar tool was able to launch it again but the tool isn't listed in Default Programs now with some of the registry keys locked. I can unlock them and adjust the permissions but there are 50+ entries and their child keys that all would need to be unlocked.
It would be nice to have this problem resolved. I'm concerned about future upgrades as I've seen other users mention this problem in 7.4 and 7.1.

I have the same exact problem and same exact symptoms. I tried uninstalling and re-installing and no luck. Did you ever find a solution?

ITunes Does Not Appear in the List of Default Programs?

My wife is trying to get iTunes to be her default media player, using the instructions found at this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3202.
However, when she goes to the list of default programs, following steps 1 and 2 at that link, iTunes does not appear in the list.
How can we correct this?
Thanks very much in advance for any info.

Vik-
I was having this same problem. I understood how to change the default program but like yours my iTunes was not in the list so therefore I was unable to set it to default.
This worked for me: (I have Vista)
I checked for updates on my iTunes program and there was an overdue update. I installed and restarted iTunes. Then went to my Default Programs tab and followed the instructions just as described in the support material and after my installation of the newest update my iTunes was now listed in the lineup of available default programs.
I hope this works for you as well!
Thanks and good luck!

How do I set Pages as the default to open docs?

Hello community of helpful people:
I am just starting out with a brand new MacBook and Pages and have thousands of documents in Word that I will be working with (eventually). When I open them (with double click) they open with the default program "TextEdit." The only way I can figure out how to open them is by right-clicking and selecting "Open with Pages." This is cumbersome. I know there must be a simple way to set the Pages as the default instead of TextEdit. Also, when I have saved a document (with a copy saved into Word), when I open the Pages document it, of course, opens in Pages. But if I open the word document that I just saved out of Pages, it opens in TextEdit.
Can someone share the secret with me for setting Pages as my default word processor?
Also, is there any advantage to opening in TextEdit? Why is this the default setting? These are less important questions, but I'm still interested.
Thanks!

Can someone share the secret with me for setting Pages as my default word processor?
Right-click one, choose Get Info, select Pages under Open With, click on Change All, and confirm this action.
Why is this the default setting?
TextEdit is present on a Mac OS X system unless manually deleted. Pages isn't bundled with the OS.

Set Adobe Professional as Default PDF Viewer

Is there a way to set Adobe Professional as my default pdf viewer instead of my Adobe Reader? I know there was a setting somewhere that I changed to accomplish this before, but I can't find it again.

No need to uninstall. The setting you're talking about is under Edit -
Preferences - General, if I'm not mistaken.

SQ01 (How to set Global Area as default)

Hi All
In SQ01, i find 2 environments in Query Areas - Global Area & Standard Area. Everytime i execute SQ01 transaction, it takes me to Standard Area, then i have to change it to Global Area & then select the user group. I would like to know how i can set Global Area as default & also a particular user group, so that everytime i run SQ01, it directly takes me to Global Area & the particular user group, so i can execute my query directly instead of having to change it each time.
Hope my problem is clear, await inputs.
Vivek

Hello Vivek,
You need to maintian some default parameters in your User master record.
Parameter ID :
AQB for User Group
AQW for Query Area.
Select the AQB from the drop-down and give your default user group in the parameter value.

Setting CS3 apps as default over CS4 apps

Hello,
My company is currently working with CS3 applications. Our vendors use CS4, for this reason, I have a CS4 indesign program installed on my machine. I am having a difficult time setting Indesign CS3 as the default application over the CS4 version.
I have tried the standard "Get Info" solution (pull down menu to change all documents to open Indesign CS3). After selection "Change All" it immediately reverts to "open with application: to CS4. I have tried using the Choose application dialog and checking the "Always open with" option. This does not work either. Indesign CS 4 is somehow set as the default.
Does anyone know how to change the default application itself instead of just changing file types?
My machine:
OSX.5.8 dual core intel xeon
CS 3 applications stored on main hard drive applications folder
CS 4 applications store in my user spefic application folder.
Any ideas would be very helpful.
Thanks!
Maria

I recommend you search this forum. This seems to hinge on an old registry key in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT not being updated. Something to do with PhotoshopImage.90 or so. Sorry, I wasn't able to dig this up so quickly, but it's at most 2 weeks old, so you're sure to find it. Look for "file associations" or something like that.

Set purchased music as default ringtone

My 13 year old son purchased a ring tone, which is now shown as a song on his song list. He wants to set this song as his default ring tone. We kow how to change ringtones, but the song does not appear in the ringtone list. How can we either get this song into the list of ring tones or set the song as the default ringtone?

You choose the default ringtone on the iPhone in Settings>Ringtone. If you don't see the ringtone he purchased there it may be a song rather than a ringtone (especially if it appears on the songs list in the Music app). He can still create a ringtone from this song using iTunes, then sync it to his phone and set it as his default ringtone.
