Sharing: Can Software Metering monitor Modern UI Apps?
Some customers are wondering whether Software Metering is able to monitor Modern UI Apps. The answer is No.
Software Metering is designed to monitor executable files for the following purposes.
1. Determine how many copies of a specified software application are in use on the company network.
2. Determine whether there are any unused copies of a specified software application on the network.
3. Determine which users regularly use a specified software application.
Windows Store Apps use a very different way to start up and this cannot be monitored by Software Metering agent.
If you really want to monitor the Modern Apps running status. Here is a possible workaround.
When a Modern App launches, an Event Log will be generated under AppLocker Category as shown in screenshot below.
You may centralize the event logs, then use event filter to get the information you want. Please refer to the following document to configure computer to forward and collect events.

Actually, you can use software metering for some modern apps, it depends upon their underlying architecture. I don't remember the details (because I'm not a modern app dev), but there are in fact multiple types of modern apps that are executed in different
ways. The ones based on HTML5 can not be monitored but the ones based on the WinRT can be (or something like that).

VisualVM can't see monitor tab or app mbeans after move to new VMWare VM
I've had a Spring 3.x application running on Solaris (5.10) in a VMWare VM for quite a while. My application registers some mbeans. I've been able to connect remotely to the VM from VisualVM and view data in the "Monitor" tab, and I've been able to see and manipulate my application mbeans in the MBeans tab.
My server was recently moved to another VMWare VM, although the host name and IP address didn't change. We got it all working, I thought, until I noticed some odd behavior when I tried to connect to the VM from VisualVM on my desktop. When I first tried it, I thought it was working fine, but when I looked closer I noticed that there was no "Monitor" tab, and when I looked at the MBeans tab, it didn't have any of my application mbeans.
I can run a local WebLogic instance, and I don't see these issues when I connect locally with VisualVM.
It doesn't seem like it would be a firewall problem. The connection succeeded. In the "Overview" tab I can see all the basic property settings.
Why would my remote connection have "degraded" functionality?I don't know if it matters, but I figured I should provide some other details of the differences between the "good" and 'bad" state.
Concerning what groups of mbeans I see in the "Mbeans" tab, in the remote connection I'm not only missing the application mbeans from my application. I see that there are two other groups that are missing from the remote connection, although I don't know if that's significant.
On a local connection, I see "JMImplementation", "Security", "<myappname>", "com.bea", "com.oracle.jdbc", "com.sun.management", "java.lang", and "java.util.logging". On the remote connection with the problem, I see "JMImplementation", "com.oracle.jdbc", "com.sun.management", "java.lang", and "java.util.logging". -
SCCM 2012 Reporting Capabilities for Software Metering
Hi,
I've been requested by my supervisors to get some information on metered software and computer usage in a specific lab, but I am unsure if I can obtain all the information they requested with just using SCCM.
I've already set up metering rules for the programs they want information on, software metering is enabled on the clients, and all of the lab computers are in in Configmgr and have good clients on them. Here's the list of the requests:
Total number of lab users by day
Total hours logged into lab computers by day
Total hours logged into a specific metered program by day
Total hours running different internet browsers
Total unique users over the course of a certain period of time
I am a novice when it comes to reports in SCCM. Are there built in reports that can give this information or would I have to write my own custom reports, or is this level of detail not possible for SCCM to give?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!The most requested information can be found in the obvious reports about
Software Metering (\Monitoring\Overview\Reporting\Reports\Software Metering).

When one or more family members who have been sharing one iTunes account wants to create their own iTunes account can they each upload the music/apps from the shared iTunes on their devices to the new iTunes account?
Yes. I would clarify your statement about the "shared" iTunes Library though. If you want each iOS device to have its own music library, you should create separate user accounts for them. Read:
iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer -
My dad and I shared an iTunes account for years and now I'm getting my own, how can I keep my music and apps? I'm worried that I won't have any ability to access my apps and music. We have our itunes separated on different computers, so I have all of my stuff separated from his, but I don't know how to put them in my new account.
Well... there really isn't any fully legal way to do this.
The simplest solution is to continue sharing the same iTunes purchasing acct, but create different ones for iCloud (assuming that's why you needed to do the split).
Slightly less kosher: Burn AUDIO CD's, of the music then copy them back to your new account.
BE sure to do this from original acount, To keep the music info, you'll copy over the CDDB file (in prefs somewhere) - since this maintains the data of CDs that you've had in library.... (it isn't carried over onto a user created CD.)

Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud and never will be able to.
That is true - I apologize for not being specific - what I was mainly referring to is iLife applications. I have a notice on the App Store that says 3 apps need updates, I look at the apps and they are huge so since my connection is so slow I use my work connection and d'load the files from support to my Windows machine and carry them home, once d'loaded my MacAir states it cannot install, the update must come from the App Store.
I do the same thing for large Leopard and Lion files and I can install them without error, it is just the App Store files that the system stops. -

How can you install the DVD or CD Sharing Setup software?
How can you install the DVD or CD Sharing Setup software for a computer running MAC OSX 10.4.11 if you do not have a MacBook Air?
You'll find the software you're looking for here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/dvdorcdsharingsetupupdateformac.html
However, say for example you install this on your iMac G4 or Windows XP PC (you'll need to get the link for that one yourself), are you planning to try to share the drive with an iBook or other non-MacBook Air computer? If this is your case, I'm not shure if it can be done with that software. I'll need to get back to you on that one. -
How can I install CS6 versions of Adobe Software Using the Adobe Desktop App?
I have a licence for CS6 Software NOT the new CC software. The only options i can see available in the CC app is for the new CC versions of the software. I tried clicking on the previous versions option as suggested by the troubleshooter, but none of the software I want to install is available in the list.
Bcom if you own CS6 you will want to use the traditional method of installing from the installation files and entering your serial number. If you are looking for a fresh copy of the installation files they can be downloaded at Download CS6 products.

Can I mirror iphone 4s screen (app Navigon) to TFT monitor in my car over the composite cable?
How can I mirror Iphone 4s screen (app Navigon) to TFT monitor in my car over the composite AV cable?
I think your right modular747 about the next gen iPhone. This is certainly a very unique use of an iPhone and probably not useful for enough for other applications to make it a priority for apple to add a video input on the phone. Thanks to all for the suggestions keepem coming and if i come up with a solution I'll post it for anyone who is interested;-)
