Settings invoked in Global Settings Panel how safe from unauthorized changes

Where are flash player settings accomplished in Global Settings Panel stored?
If done (adaptations of flash player settings) while logged-in on an non-administrative windows account,
how easily are these settings manipulate by malware, trojans & Co.

Problem with Global settings panels

Using Flash player v10,1,53,64. with IE7 and Safari 5. I am trying to turn off the auto update notification as I work in an infant school and the pop-up notifications confuse the children.
Flash objects are working fine and the http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ page tells me that I have the version of Flash installed with no problem.
I then right click on an active Flash object on a web page and choose "Global settings..."
Then choose Global Notification Settings Panel... , which takes me to http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager05.htm l
At this point, instead of the panel I get the "This content requires Flash" replacement item - so I can't go any further. The same sthing happens with any of the Settings panels.
So one page on the Adobe site says I have the player installed, others don't.
Help much appreciated.

Does that happen on all browsers?
Anyway, another way of disabling update notifications is by using a mms.cfg file; see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/167/16701594.html for details.
It has happened with all the browsers I have checked, some may be a bit out of date as we don't use them regularly but I have the problem with
Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13
Safari 5.0
Firefox 3.0.19
Chrome 5.0.375.86
I'll have a look at the mms.cfg option this afternoon.
I'm beginning to wonder whether this is caused by a firewall problem. I don't control the firewall settings. I've been assured by our network team that there is no block, but I'm wondering if that is right. I suppose they could have a block on flash content from not specifically authorised sites (which might well include Adobe) that would still let the Adobe site interrogate to find out the Flash version - but as I'm not 100% certain how the protocols work I can't be sure, I'll have to recheck that one.
Thanks for the help so far.

Hi. A JDBC connection pool is a set of identical, interchangeable, pre-made
connections, and the controls to make sure only one user uses a particular
connection at any one time. If you want to have different DBMS users, you can
have a separate pool for each DBMS user, which may contain as many or few
connections as you want. Some applications has a pool for the accounting
applications, and another for the sales applications etc. Some do have a
separate pool for john, jane, joe etc, each with one connection. Pools
can be created and destroyed dynamically using the dynamic pool API.

Has anybody had problems with the global settings panel not working?

I am on PC, Vista 64bit. updated to the new flash player and now flash player will not allow me to chage anything in the global settings panel. I need to allow third party content for editing wix sites and I cannot change any of the settings. I have uninstalled and reinstalled many times and nothing has helped.
My adobe reader also crashed and now will not load after uninstall. Very frustrating! Everythign worked fine before the update.
Any ideas?

To allow Flash Player settings, close all browser windows, then open Windows Explorer and type %APPDATA%\Adobe in the address bar. Delete the 'Flash Player' folder in there. Do the same in %APPDATA%\Macromedia
Regarding Adobe Reader, please post in that forum.

No Global Settings Panel

I do not have any kind of settings panel come up when I try to change my Global settings on the Adobe web site. I am running the latest player version. Also, when I go to Flash Player settings on my computer's Control Panel, I have the latest Active-X version, but no plug-in version on the Advanced tab. I am running Windows 7 & IE9. I have uninstsalled and reinstalled Adobe Flash several times.
Thanks for your help!!

You are on this Global Settings page, right? http://http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manage r03.html

No global settings panel in IE9 RC1

Hi. My flash player is 10.2.152.26.
After installing IE9 RC1 on my Windows 7 home premium x64 system and using x32 bit IE9 I can't see the global settings panel on the Adobe page any more. I can still get the other settings panel in any video.
I reinstalled Flash Player and this is the only problem. Video etc all work. (Solved that problem a month ago!)
When I rolled back to IE8 the global panel came back. Reinstalled IE9 RC1 and the global panel is gone again.
This is what Microsoft said: "You should be able to access the Global Settings using Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate and Adobe Flash Player ... If you aren’t able to view the Global Settings check to make sure ActiveX Filtering is fully turned off... If that doesn’t help, try reaching out to the Adobe community to see if they can provide further assistance. Steven, Microsoft Answers Support Engineer "
Well, I disabled ActiveX filtering and still the same. Here's the evidence:
The second image suggests the global panel is still in there somewhere. ??? Any advice much appreciated.

Good workaround.
Apparently it wants to save some temporary files and no longer can with that option set in IE9. I have tried a workaround where I temporarily turned off that option, brought up each of the "global" setting options, and then turned the IE option back on. I also have General options set to delete temporary on close but with do not Favorite Site Data.
I also tacked data to my problem opened in BUGS.ADOBE.COM. Hope they check them out as they Incorrectly closed the problem resolved.
As someone else has noted the interface for Flash 10.3 beta is different and does not have this problem.

Can't change Flash Player global settings

Hello,
I've had this problem about a year now and have been searching all over the internet for the solution. Ive seen it come up many times but it never fixes my problem, so I decided to just start a thread.
I have:
-Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
-Firefox 6.0 64-bit
-Flash Player version 10,3,183,5
Anyways, im sure youve heard of this before where you cannot change the global settings to allow webcam, mic, data storage or click allow and so on - and I have tried many things to no avail. I assume it is some problem with Windows 7 restricting its access and i figured maybe an update could help but it has still been the same for a year. I have two computers both with the same exact problem and I have tried everything suggested for this problem: delete "flash player" folders out of appdata, reinstalling, etc. but nothing has worked. Its been like this for a year and I cant deal with it anymore, any flash video or game that requires flash to store local data typically shows up as a black box or doesn't let me save my game. Please help me, this is extremely irritating.

I didn't even know that there was a 64-bit version of Firefox 6 - where did you find it?
Anyway, Flash Player 10.x does not run on 64-bit browsers. So, in that light, how do you attempt to change the Global Settings, from the Control Panel applet, or via http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/se ttings_manager.htm ?
Sorry - I dont really know what firefox came in besides the version and since my computer is 64-bit I asssumed the program was too.
Also sorry for the late reply, Ive been doing school things lately.
Anyways,
Another question: if you delete the Flash Player folders from %appdata%, are they recreated after using Flash Player?
Now that I look at it, I believe so. I just checked my appdata and saw the flash player folders are there, but they are always empty. If there was a recent update it may of been that, but they are there again. Could that have something to do with it?

Can't see the Global Settings Manager !

Hi,
I can't see the Global Settings Manager here: Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel
I have a message 'this content requires Flash'.
My OS: Vista Business 32 bits
Flash player installed : 14.0.0.145
Browser: Firefox 31 (latest version)
Let me know how can I fix this issue, please.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Pat,
Sorry for the delay time.
I found the culprit, a firefox add-ons that consider the Global Settings Manager as an adv.
May I ask you here another issue that I have with Flash while viewing movies ?

Cannot click on settings and global settings in dialogue box

Google chrome updated to new flash player 10.3.184.14 now when I right click flash screen and get the dialogue box and click on settings or global settings nothing happens.. but if I refresh game or page sometimes or intermittently I do get the local settings box, but only once.. when it goes away I have to refresh page. and sometime it works sometimes not.. the same happens with the global settings.... I looked for Flash player in my control panel, but was not there.. I switched over to IE-8 and downloaded version 10.3.xxx.xx now have it in my control panel.. If I play games or view flash content in IE. I can right click screen and can always click settings or global settings and it works each time, no matter how many times I do it,, but in Google Chrome it does not... Am I doing something wrong, do I need to import from other browsers in GC why cant I access settings and global settings after right clicking flash screen in Google Chrome?????

Hi, I think your thread got pushed to the 2nd page.
In addition to Security updates in this 10.3.181.14, there is included a Flash Settings Panel Manager.
Users now have a simpler way to clear local storage from the browser settings interface – similar to how users clear their browser cookies today. Flash Player 10.3 integrates control of local storage with the browser’s privacy settings in Mozilla Firefox 4, Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and higher, Google Chrome 11 (Available in Chrome Dev Channel), and a future release of Apple Safari.
When you open the Flash Player icon from the Control Panel, be sure to check each Tab (Storage, etc)
Also under the tab Storage you will find the info on Private Browsing, so be sure to read this info in case you use that.
My understanding of this new feature with Flash Player vs 10.3.181.14 can be used with the above listed browser versions.
Those not listed can use the Settings here: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html

Global Settings?

Where did the global settings screen go? The playlists have an option for playing in "My Podcasts" order, but I can't seem to find any way of defining what '"My Podcasts" order' is. Each individual podcast has a Sort Order and Play Order setting. There used to be a global equivalent, but I can't seem to find it now. There's a panel in the main Settings App, but those options don't appear to be there.

The answer to your question after I played around with this for awhile:
"My Podcast order" is the order you have each podcast setup individually...
So say you have podcast A to play oldest to newest and then sorted by newest on top, if you put it in my stations, sadly it will play the newest pod first....
If you had pod B setup to play newest to oldest but then sorted by oldest on top, it would default to play the oldest....
However I figured out that if you individually change all your pods to sort oldest to newest and you have more than 1 ep, it will play in correct order....
You do have to individually change the sort settings for all podcasts though, which for me took a little bit of time....
And as I said before, its all based on individual settings so you would have to change all of them to work....
Also the way they play in My Stations is how you have them arranged in your My Podcast section, which means if you don't want them to play A-Z order (default) then you need to use the "Edit" button at the top and rearrange the pods the way you want them....
Once you go back into the My Stations area, voila, it should be setup in the order you want them to play, then in chronological from oldest to newest.
Hope that helps you out.

Accessing Global Settings

Hi,
I have Flashplayer 10.3, all is well. My friend has 10.2 on XP. She cannot access the Global Settings, so we can video chat.
I see the instructions at:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
Also, I have setup my 10.3 fine and dandy. When we select Global Settings in her Flashplayer, she is sent to a webpage about Help.
How does one access this Global Settings menu in Flashplayer 10.2, please?
Thanks,
SHD

Hi SHD,
Glad your FP 10.3 is working fine--now, let's see what we can do to help your friend. In terms of Flash Player settings, the main difference between Flash Player 10.2 and 10.3 is that 10.3 includes a new Settings Manager that you can access locally, from your computer's Control Panel (Windows) or through System Preferences (Mac).
This new 10.3 local Settings Manager simply provides an easier way to access and change the same Flash Player settings as those accessed through the web-based Settings Manager located here: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l.
The web-based Settings Manager that you see when you follow this link is not just a Help page--it is the actual Settings Manager, and your friend who is using FP 10.2 should be able to click the tabs to see different panels, and then change any settings required to allow video chat.
Note that there are a couple of differences in terminology between the web-based (10.2) and local (10.3) Settings Managers--the panels that are called "Privacy Settings" in the web-based version are called "Camera and Mic" in the local Settings Manager. The name is different, but the actual settings are the same.
Hope this helps,

OSB Global settings corrupt

When I create a simple proxy service containing only one report task I get the following error:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: com.bea.wli.config.component.NotFoundException: Validation failed for Operations System/Operator Settings/GlobalOperationalSettings: Referenced component (Operations System/Operator Settings/GlobalOperationalSettings) not found.
at com.bea.wli.sb.resources.globaloperations.GlobalOperationsRepository.isDomainReportingEnabled(GlobalOperationsRepository.java:123)
at stages.logging.runtime.ReportRuntimeStep.processMessage(ReportRuntimeStep.java:68)
When I did some research I found out the Global settings of the OSB are not working anymore. When I open that page in the OSB Console I get the same (kind of) error. Futhermore I found out that the file /apps/bea/domains/<MYDOMAIN>/osb/config/core/System/Operator Settings/GlobalOperationalSettings.xml was missing in my domain. But how did this happen?
Placing a copy of this file back does not seem to make any difference. It still cannot find anything.
A thing to notice is I have two OSBs (AdminServers) running on one Linux Machine. Both of them in a different domain with their own oracle XE Database Schema for reporting. One of the OSBs is working and one is not working. But I cannot think of a reason why this would cause a problem.
Does anyone know what to do?

Hi there!
Add this to the import.py script
          operationMap = alsbImportPlan.getOperations()
          # We want to avoid to delete the GlobalOperationalSettings which the JAR packaged using the
          # ant tasks seem to automatically do.
          # So we go look for the 'System/Operator Settings/GlobalOperationalSettings' reference
          # in the operations map
          globalOp = findRefInOperationMap(operationMap, 'System/Operator Settings/GlobalOperationalSettings')
          if (globalOp != None):
               print 'Removing delete operation on the GlobalOperationalSettings'
               alsbImportPlan.removeOperation(globalOp)
Just after
          # Getting the default import plan from the upload jar file
          alsbJarInfo = ALSBConfigurationMBean.getImportJarInfo()
          alsbImportPlan = alsbJarInfo.getDefaultImportPlan()

Transfer of global settings from ECC to APO

I know there is the 'transfer of global settings' option from within transaction RSA1 in APO to transfer units of measure, fiscal year variants etc from ECC to APO, to ensure synchronisation.
How does this actually work? For example, suppose we have 14 units of measure in ECC, but already have 16 units in APO. If we run the synchronisation transaction, what will end up in APO? Is the complete table of units replaced in APO, so we would have just 14 units?
Thanks, Bob Austin

there is some explanation to what you have mentioned in Re: Factory Calendar
this talks about calendars and is relevant till SCM 4.x
I would imagine the situation would be the same for UOM
In SCM 5 you have the option to update the tables, Rebuild the tables and also a simulation option
