Tablet 2 won't upload roaming profile

Tablet 2, Windows 8 Pro (factory installed), AD domain member, user account with roaming profile.
The OS will download my roaming profile when I log in, but refuses to upload it back to the server when I log off. I've installed Windows 8 (Enterprise) from scratch on two other computers (a Dell laptop and a Lenovo W500 laptop), and on those machines, the roaming profile works correctly. Has anybody else seen this behavior?

Have you tried to export to the "camera roll", and then try to export to you tube from the photos app?

Windows Domain Controller on Windows Server 2012 R2: Hyper-V roaming profiles not loading due to slow connection

I have racked my brain and done everything that I know to do for about two weeks now. I am setting up a new system at our fire department and I am having the worst luck with getting the workstations to login to the domain controller with roaming
profiles. It keeps telling me that the roaming profile could not be loaded because of a slow connection. These are workstations that are connected directly to the switch that the DC is connected to. I have tried multiple connections regarding
the layout (DC into the router, router into the switch). The router is a Cisco RV220W. I have two VLANS, one for public and one for private domain. The Private VLAN has DHCP turned off since I am providing it through the DC. I currently
have a connection from the Private VLAN going to the unmanaged switch that the workstations and server are plugged into.
The server is a Dell PowerEdge R420 that has 6 NIC ports (1 dual port and 1 quad port). I have a virtual switch setup on Hyper-V for an external port (let's say Card 2 Port 3) that is assigned to the WS 2012R2 Domain Controller. The DC can see
the internet fine and the workstations can connect to the shared folders on the server. I can retrieve files by just using the computer name or FQDN. The DC is also running DNS and DHCP. The DNS has the _msdcs setup from when I installed
the active directory role. I have attempted to assign static IP addresses to the workstations:
IP:                     10.0.0.80
Subnet:             255.255.255.0
IPV4 Gateway: 10.0.0.1
IPV4 DNS:        10.0.0.12
I've attempted "append the specific DNS suffix", I've "registered the connection in DNS", I've used "use this connections suffix in DNS registration".
The server is assigned:
IP:                     10.0.0.12
Subnet:             255.255.255.0
IPV4 Gateway: 10.0.0.1
IPV4 DNS:         10.0.0.12
The DNS entries have forwarders that forward to my ISP DNS servers for lookup
I've enabled and disabled DHCP, I've installed a new VM just to create another DC to make sure that I didn't goof up when I created it.
I've lost my patience with this project and am sinking fast. Can someone please offer some advice as to what I've done wrong? I've created this exact scenario at work many times but, I've never done it with Windows Server 2012. Is this
possibly something to do with the Dell PowerEdge server (Generation 12) with the SR-IOV? I am going to attempt to work on it some more tomorrow when I get over there. I think there may be an issue with the SR-IOV not being enabled on the machine
through the Dell Bios. Would the SR-IOV really cause the workstations to report a slow connection? When I login at the domain controller the roaming profiles and folder redirection work fine so, I know the GPO settings are correct. I don't
have "ignore slow connections" or any of those GPO's set. I need to get it working the correct way so, I didn't want to fool the server when there is another underlying problem. Any help that someone can offer, I am more than willing
to listen. If you need more information, please ask.
Thanks,
Jay

So, I've managed to research this some more since Thursday and I've come to the conclusion that Hyper-V does a horrible job of supporting Qualcomm NIC cards. That's the only thing I can conclude as far as where the issue is originating. I've read many
post and walkthroughs but nothing that has helped. The issue wasn't with any settings in the domain controller. The issue was that there really is a slow connection originating at the domain controller that is a VM and has network connectivity through the
virtual switch from Hyper-V. So, next question is, how do I get the DC to have better connectivity through the NIC that Hyper-V won't give it? If hyper-v would allow passthrough, this would be so much simpler. VM-ware is looking really good at this point.
Im disappointed in MS right now.

Roaming Profile Folder Creation Immediately Inaccessible

Set up is AD 2008. Terminal 2012 R2, Fileserver 2012.
Before we've had it set so we could create a user in AD, log them onto the Terminal, it creates the profile, which on log out is saved to its roaming location on the Fileserver with a V2 after it. In their profile field in AD, that Fileserver location
was given as well.
Something changed recently and we're not sure what. Now if I create a user in AD, and log them into the Terminal, it gives me a message that a temporary profile is being used for this log on. When I log out, it creates the V2 on the Fileserver,
but I'm unable to access it even with admin credentials. I've been able to change the owner, but it doesn't allow me to delete that folder and try again. I have been able to run this
SET DIRECTORY_NAME="C:\profilelocation"
TAKEOWN /f %DIRECTORY_NAME% /r /d y
ICACLS %DIRECTORY_NAME% /grant administrators:F /t
PAUSE
where the profile location is the folder in question and have it open it up enough to delete so we can troubleshoot. But doing that doesn't change the initial Terminal status of using a roaming profile and it using a temporary profile.
On the terminal server, I have also found the registry setting for that user and deleted it (the one with the .bak ending). That allows a good logon if I remove the profile location setting in AD. But when I move the folder to the fileserver,
and then add the location back in AD, I get the Temporary Profile error again.
Any ideas where to start looking? I don't think we've changed any GPs that affect our terminal users. Current users are fine, but I won't be able to create any new users and have them use a roaming profile.
Ben Rollman

Well, I'm still not sure what changed. Here's what I've done so far. (Email to my boss yesterday.)
I set up a test container under States and moved all the state user, test user, etc into it. Then I backed up the current ExtUsers_UsersGPO settings and imported them
into a new GPO called TextExt… and enabled the computer settings. It had the following but the Computer Setting wasn’t enabled so it wouldn’t have done that.
Policy
Setting
Comment
Add the Administrators security group to roaming user profiles
Enabled
I deleted the local and roaming file, and for good measure the registry entry. I logged in as “testuser” and didn’t receive any problems. Created a test folder,
test file, logged off. I see the testuser.V2 on the FS, but I can’t access it, like before.
I run the following script to change it so I can access it.
SET DIRECTORY_NAME="C:\Files\Profiles\testuser.v2"
TAKEOWN /f %DIRECTORY_NAME% /r /d y
ICACLS %DIRECTORY_NAME% /grant administrators:F /t
PAUSE
The FS profile is set for full rights for domain and local admin, but no user. So I add the user as the owner, and give the user full rights. Log in, and I get
this.
Your roaming profile is not synchronized correctly with the server. Windows will load your previously-saved local profile instead. See the previous events for details.
And these in event viewer.
Windows cannot copy file
\\statefs\Profiles\testuser.V2\ntuser.ini to location C:\Users\testuser\ntuser.ini. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.
DETAIL - The system cannot find the file specified.
Windows could not load your roaming profile and is attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile will not be copied to the server when you log off. Windows could
not load your profile because a server copy of the profile folder already exists that does not have the correct security. Either the current user or the Administrators group must be the owner of the folder.
I had put the icons on the FS folder just to see if it would show up. I saw the test folder okay in both. But when I logged back in, the shortcut icons weren’t
there. AND when I logged off, it overwrote the FS folder, removing the icons.
From there I checked the TS local profile folder (just in case) and saw it had no testuser rights at all. The owner of that folder was SYSTEM. So just for fun I
changed the owner to testuser, made sure to set it for all subfolders, logged in, no error message. Logged out, put shortcuts into the desktop folder on FS, logged back in, no errors and the shortcuts are there.
So.
I don’t know if it’s the GP or the fact that maybe the TS folder wasn’t getting the right permission to allow the roaming process to write to it or both. I’m going to
try to recreate this, see if there’s a way to shorten the process or create a template like before.

Firefox Error with Roaming Profiles "Could not initialize the application's security component"

Hi there
I get the common error "Could not initialize the application's security component" when I startup Firefox.
I tried this manual: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/couldnt-initialize-applications-security-component
I have enough space left, i have read/edit/write-rights, created a new firefox profile and also reset all the settings, nothing works.
BUT I dont have a cert8.db File in my %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
What can I do?
Like I said in my description, its about Users that are logged in with a Roaming-Profile. Every User has this problems, it doesn't matter if or without Admin-Rights.
Also this problem exists since Firefox 4.0.0, the last working Version was 3.6.13 I guess.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
Try to remove or rename secmod.db (secmod.db.old) in the Firefox profile folder.
If that didn't help then also rename the cert8.db file to cert8.db.old or delete the cert8.db file to remove intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored.
If that helped to solve the problem then you can remove the renamed cert8.db.old file.<br />
Otherwise you can rename (or copy) the cert8.db.old file to cert8.db to restore the previous intermediate certificates.<br />
Firefox will automatically store intermediate certificates when you visit websites that send such a certificate.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 25: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Roaming profiles on network

Hi all!
Ok, so first the problem (it is on our school network, and im
currently helping the admins with something:
There are 1500+ users on the school network, and 800 of them
are required to create an "E-portfolio" in dreamweaver, for our IT
course.
When a user configures dreamweaver it creates a configuration
file in the users profile "c:\Documents and
Settings\username\Application Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
MX\Configuration" however, with everyone having a roaming profile
(and static profiles would be out of the question) when users log
on, it has to drag a 20meg file from the server to the root
directory of the computer the user has logged on to. Now although
20meg isn't very big, when 150 users are all login on at the same
time, it can take ages to log on.
Now our original idea was to just get rid of this
configuration file, and see what it affected - however it gets rid
of all defined sites, and also how you configure your window in
dreamweaver - so this is out of the question.
So my question is - "Is there anyway the we can reduce the
file size, or have a "shared" configuration file, so that it just
saves the defined sites on the user profiles?"

If the E-portfolios are allowed to have the same structure I
think your time
would be better spent designing this system with a Database
backend and
admin tool.
This way a person can login to the admin tool and fill in
whatever
information they want and then click update. You could make
this as simple
or "cool" as you want. The benefit to this is that you can
almost guarantee
that it will always work and that a person will not upload
something that
breaks.
Just a thought.

LUM, integrated login, roaming profile

Re-reading many message threads in this and other forums, I'm
confused. For SLED, LUM creates users accounts on-the-fly after eDir
login (like DLU on ZEN on Windows), the Novell client reads login
scripts and maps drives (like on Windows) but integration with LUM is
less than transparent, and there may or may not be plans to support
roaming profies, without which settings and user document folders are
stuck on each machine the account was created on, making it very
difficult to support without mass confusion.
I run a college network. If we are to have a chance to make people
interested in an alternative to Windows, all those functions must be
transparent to users (as it is with the Windows client and ZEN) --
they authenticate to the directory, their local account is created,
they get their network resources, and their roaming profile settings
and locations are as expected. They logout, their info is safe on the
network, their account is deleted. They go to the next class in a
different lab and repeat. This happens thousands of times per day in
30 different labs with students of wildly different capabilities and
expectations. But it just works.
This has been the Novell experience since the beginning (16 years for
us). It is still valid. Anything less than this makes SLED an
unworkable alternative. I'm looking for a way to make it workable. By
summer we'll have 1200 XP/SLED dual boot machines in labs and offices.
To make SLED a viable alternative we need those other features.
Otherwise, it's just a toy for the curious. Unfortunate.
So, here are my end of year questions:
Which of these fundamental functions are working with which others?
Which ones are in the SP beta plans?
Which ones are not being planned?
What is the process for helping the planners understand the needs of
the users out here?
Thanks.
Lyle

Mark,
Thanks for the comments. I actually don't care if it doesn't implement
the same way as Windows. I agree, that is not a good model. Copying
the profile is dumb. If the plan is to simply mount the home, that's
by far the best way.
I suspect that what we are working with is a terminology problem. If,
we define "roaming profile" to mean that the user sees what they
expect to see regardless of what machine they login to, that is all
that matters. The need to copy the profile on Windows causes all kinds
of problems and is a poor solution.
So, let me re-state what I feel our needs are: 1) the user, not having
a local account, authenticates to the linux workstation using eDir, 2)
gets all the network resources per network scripts and policies, 3)
their home "profile" looks like it should, with all settings in tact,
4) they logout and no residue is left on the workstation.
However that is accomplished, I don't care and I'm not wedded to any
Windows terminology or processes. Hope this helps.
Lyle

Roaming Profiles, FM9 and Acrobat Professional (9 and X) - Useful Info maybe to others

Just thought I would post this bit of information, which took me a long time to figure out and I still don't know why it happens.
Basically
Using FM9 (although have FM10 installed but cannot convert at the moment...not to mention...sigh...that a distributor sold that to us knowing that FM11 was about to be released!!!!!!!!!)
Windows 7 Professional, 64 bit
Recently upgraded to Acrobat Professional X (although the same problem happened with Acrobat Pro 9).
Could not get FM to publish to PDF (that is, print to PDF). I could distill, but then I did not get the bookmarks I needed (I tried to find an easy answer to that question, but that was a dead end involving programming).
I have spent too much time on this issue
A while ago, I found that by disabling a roaming profile, or deleting the files in the Adobe folder in a roaming profile, seems to fix whatever problem the PDF printer was having generating a PDF.
Thought I would pass that on in case someone else find it useful.

Amanda,
As Van says, yes you can have both seleced at the same time. I suspect there are other issues on your machine that are creating your problems. FWIW, I too have been running FM9 on a win7 64-bit platform with no issues.
The Roaming Profile is used typicaly with remote logins across a WAN (wide area network), however, application specific gets stored there - depending upon the application. Since you've seemed to have resolved the issue by deleting (or disabling the profile, i.e. the apps won't look there) the Roaming profile folder, it sounds like there might have been something corrupt or erroneous in the Acrobat data folders. When you installed your FM versions, did you deselect the accompanying PDFcreator option? If not and you had an existing Acrobat installation, then some items would have been overwritten, creating some issues for you.

Strange behavior of system with enabled FileVault2, Roaming profile

Hello,
I have encountered strange behavor of my Macbook Air after some testing.
Macbook Air 2012 was newly installed with 10.8.4 and joined network account server on 10.8.4 server with Roaming profile (synced with server home directory). After installing some basic apps like iWork I turned on FileVault.
Then I start to have the strange behavior - iWorks are not displaying content of document - it seams blank - just white screen without any borders where should be at least lines in numbers or empty cells.
Another display problem is in Safari. On same pages (even default Top SItes) it`s flashing and especially when scrolling.
Did you encountered something similar? I`m not able to get rid of it.
Computers was used for some time before turining on FIle Vault and problem started to occur after this action. Disabling of FileVault didn`t helped (properly restarted between steps).
I didn`t found anything strange in Console or elsewhere..

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Credentials for roaming profiles

Good morning all,
Having a bit of trouble with the vibe snap in using Office 2013 and users with roaming profiles. It seems when users enter their account information that these get stored in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Credenti als. As you can see this is in the local directory of the profile which does not get uploaded on log out. This means users are having to re-enter their credentials after every new login.
Is there a workaround for this or is there a way of configuring Vibe to store the credentials in a roaming directory?
Thanks!
Phil

As of July 2014 Facebook won't upload photos, yet my iPhone and the PC at work will, what's up with my Mac or Safari?

as of July 2014 Facebook won't upload photos when trying on my MacBook, yet my iPhone and the PC at work will, what's up with my Mac or Safari? I have updated my Flash and that seems fine. Facebook is not allowing me to upload photos of videos to my profile or friends profiles. Also when I post a link to an article the photo preview with the article no longer shows up either. What the heck??? I am super frustrated. Thanks for any help
What I have:
MacBook
OS X, Version 10.9.3
Safari
Version 7.0.4

I can upload photos to Facebook on Safari 7.0.5 and Mavericks v10.9.4 so update your OS X.
Go to Apple  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update, OR, open the App Store then select Updates from the menu top of that window. Then follow the instructions for updating OS X.
When you're done, launch Safari then uploading photos on Facebook.
If you still have problems, troubleshoot Safari extensions and third party plugins.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

Roaming Profiles on NSS

I do not use DLU, as my users authenticate against synchronized AD

No, that is not correct.
Roaming Profiles work fine with DLU and Windows 7 and NSS.

DirectAccess and Roaming Profiles

I've just implemented a proof of concept 2012 R2 DA server in an Edge config.
All was looking great until I started to log off and on - the times were horrendous. I assumed it was roaming profiles and Google proved me correct, right at the very, very bottom on this 2008 R2 DirectAccess MS article https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee382285%28WS.10%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
is the bomb-shell that you basically have to use Folder Redirection.
This just won't work in our environment as you can only redirect a very specific subset of folders with Folder Redirection and the bulk of our users' data is not in any of these. For example we have a lot users with a OneDrive For Business folder in their profile
and that can be huge. We also run some applications that store data in user profiles.
Are there any options with DA on Server 2012 R2 that can help with this predicament or do I give up before now before even pushing out to some test users?

App breaks roaming profiles?... QB2008

Have a small site running NW6.5 SP6 with Zen 6.5SP1 and only using it for DLUs and roaming profiles. Everything has been working fine for a few years. Right after we install QB 2008 Premier to a system the roaming profile no longer synchronizes to the server but it will still read from it just fine. If you delete the "Windows NT 5.1 Workstation Profile" directory from their home directory it will re-create it but never populates it. DLU continues to function fine. No quotas and we have ample drive space. No irfs in place and permissions seem to be adequate. All workstations are XP Pro SP2 and client versions are all 4.91 SP4 fully patched.
Any suggestions?

What happens if you uninstall QB?
If that fixes it, you might want to see if QB puts any type of TSRs in
memory?

Default Network Printer With Roaming Profile

I have one user, only one out of 50+, whose roaming profile keep changing the default printer upon log in. I have verified that it is her profile, not her computer, as when I log in to a different computer the same issue happens. I have verified her
roaming profile is uploading the registry key for the default printer correctly so I know that is correct. The problem is with the default printer being a network printer.
To explain better lets say she has 2 local printers, Local1 and Local2, and 2 networked printers, Network1 and Network2. If she has Local1 set as default, log off and log on, Local1 is still the default. In the same way if Local2 is the default, log off
and log on, Local2 is still the default. If either Network1 or Network2 are set as default, log off, check the ntuser.dat hive and ensure that the registry key still states that Network1 is the defaulter, log on, and Local1 is now the default. I assume there
must be something in her profile that is forcing the local printers to default rather than the networks.
The local printers not not physical printers but rather virtual such as Adobe PDF Converter or Send to One Note. If I remove all these local printers, set Network1 as default, log out and in, then Network1 is the default rather than no default. So I know
it isn't the fact that the profile is not connecting to the network. The problem is the user uses those virtual printers so they need to be installed.
There is only one user that has this problem so I assume it is a setting/registry key that is causing the roaming profile to pick a local printer rather than what is stored as default.
We do not use GPP to push printers so I cannot edit a GPO for this users and set her default that way. I need Windows to be able to natively set the printer, without log in scripts or anything of the sort.
Does anyone have a clue what would cause this? If I can explain better or provide any more information please let me know.

Hi，
This problem caused by Registry key problem, you can access to the path below and clear all the subkey of the registry：
HKEY_USERS\USERS_SID_HERE\Printers\Connections
HKEY_USERS\USERS_SID_HERE\Printers\Settings key
Note: to identify the User SID, please follow the steps below:
Open Registry Editor and navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion \ProfileList
Under the ProfileList key, you will see the SIDs. By selecting each one individually, you can look at the value entry and see what user name is associated with that particular SID.
After remove all the subkey, restart your computer to check the problem.

How to set up roaming profile on Macs using AD like in windows

I can bind the workstations to the domain fine.. But can someone direct me to instructions of how to set up the roaming profiles ?
What steps do I need on the server ? This is what I've done so far.
I already have OU's for the departments and the users have a shared folder inside their department folder.... \\server\shared_folder\user
I have done the usual things with AD as far as the profile settings on the windows server.
Am currently running Mac OS 10.5 and above
My windows AD runs on windows server 2008
All my windows workstation are able to use roaming profile without a problem.
So far i have tried the so many avenues including..
Make sure the Mac systems are joined to the domain controller and an ADS user can log on successfully. Use "Directory Utility" under "Utilities" menu to join the system to the domain.
Backup all the contents from /Users to the storage or somewhere locally.
Configure automount - Go to "Utilities" -> "Directory Utility" - Select the domain and click "Show advanced options" - Click "Mounts" tab and add automount as mentioned below. Remote NFS URL: nfs://server_name/share_name/path/to/profile/directory Mount location: /Users Additional mount parameters: -P,-T Apply the settings and this will mount the remote shared folder or we can name it as Roaming Profile Space - under /Users directory
Enable roaming profile - Go to "Utilities" -> "Directory Utility" - Select the domain and click "Show advanced options" - Click "Services" -> Select "Active Directory" and click "Show advanced option" - Click "User experience" tab and select the option "Create mobile account at login".
Reboot the system and log in as any ADS user. The Roaming shared folder will be mounted and the user profile will be created on the shared folder
Can anyone kindly assist me
