'Take window to desktop' in Awesome

Hello Arch forums,
I've just installed the Awesome WM (v3.4) and so far really like it.
My development skills in general are very minimal, certainly no Lua experience, but luckily Awesome is almost fine for me in default setup.
I've managed to add some of the modifier+mouse key combos i want; i.e.
ctrl+alt+scrolldown = next desktop
ctrl+alt+scrollup = prev desktop
awful.button({ "Control", "Mod1" }, 5, awful.tag.viewnext),
awful.button({ "Control", "Mod1" }, 4, awful.tag.viewprev),
But the one remaining function i want has me stumped.
What i want to have is for ctrl + super(mod4/modkey) + alt (mod1) + scrolldown take the current focused window to the next virtual desktop and take 'me' there as well.
(and also scrollup for previous desktop)
I've tried a few things, and a friend who is a coder (but no Lua exp.) has tried to help me as well, but we haven't been able to achieve this functionality (the closest we've gotten is moved the focused window and our view to another desktop, but it wasn't the next desktop, it was desktop 9 (the last one)).
If anyone could offer any help it would be greatly appreciated.

Although i'd still like to achieve my desired functionality, i didn't know about that and it is quite quick and a fine substitute for now, thanks teh

Can Photoshop CS4 be deployed on Windows remote desktop server?

I tried installing Photoshop extended CS4 on a Windows Remote Desktop server (Windows 2008 R2 64bit) and it said it requires at least Windows XP or Vista 64bit as the OS requirement. I can either continue or quit. Can someone verify if this product can be deployed in RDS enviroment?
Thanks

Mark:
Thanks for the input. It worked. Interestingly, I first tried installing CS5 but the install just stopped. I then tried CS4 and it installed without trouble. For CS5, I have a downloaded copy of the software; for CS4, I have an actual physical DVD. I may explore this issue further at some later point. For now, having CS4 run is quite sufficient for testing and evaluation.
I realize that using thin clients will impose some amount of performance penalty, but my expectation is that the overall performance will be acceptable for most user tasks most of the time. I take it from your post this has been your experience. I will still provide a stand-alone machine for the small number of projects where the application is taxing the limits of the computer, and any limitations imposed by Remote Desktop are not acceptable.
Certainly, the software needs to be properly licensed, which Adobe is more than happy to provide. Through the thin client approach I hope to eliminate the maintenance and management headache of maintaining multiple, essentially identical, machines. And, I hope to reduce (by some small percentage) power costs.
We'll see how it goes...

Windows 7 desktop and windows 8 desktop connected to router

I have a windows 7 64 bit desktop and a 7510 e photosmart printer connected wireless, though the desktop is wired, I purchased a windows 8 desktop and connected it to my router and set up my email account and it did pick up my printer and could print but not scan or EFax, now I get a 1625 message and cannot print from it.
I tried to download the print and scan wizard from HP web site but my PC froze up.
Do i have to run the disc or set up a home group, not bothered about being able to E Fax or scan to email with it, just need it to print as it did before.
Also on my windows 7 I can log into HP connected and my printer shows up ok, when I press the icon on the printer for Eprint it shows my HP email address but when I press the Fax icon it says NOT CONNECTED TO ANY NETWORK. Cloud services set up a static IP address for me last year as each time we had a power outage I lost my connection to my printer. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Windows 7 and windows 8 desktop wired and 7510e printer connected to win 7 wireless

I have a windows 7 64 bit HPavilion Elite 150f desktop set up wired with a 7510e photosmart printer connected to it wireless, now I have purchased a windows 8 desktop HP envy 700-019 desktop.
When I set up my new windows 8 desktop I just plugged it into my wireless router/modem combo and it found my printer and I could just print from it, I did not download any software or drivers for my printer or set up a home group as I was not sure how to set it up but last night I tried to set up a homegroup,
I used my wireless network key and entered it and pressed connect, then I entered the Homegroup password that was downloaded for me from Microsoft, but my windows 7 says homegroup and my windows 8 shows private network so I am not sure what I have done wrong, I chose to only share music and printers, can anyone tell me how to do this correctly as I am not sure that I have done it properly.
On my windows 8 I can go to my printers web site by entering the static IP address that cloud support set up for me and it shows as connected but I do not want to enter any printer code as that is already set up on my windows 7, I can also scan to email on my windows 8 but I am not sure what if any security I have on my windows 8. The last time I had a homegroup set up I payed someone to do it for me so I did it by guess work more than anything, if someone can lead me through it step by step I would appreciate it.

Hi @emma22
I would like to do my best to help, but please bear in mind the issue you are expressing is an inquiry for Microsoft not HP. I did find something I think will be most helpful, and I hope it resolves the issue, but if the issue persists, or you have additional questions, it might be best to reach out to the Microsoft community.
Here is what I found; HomeGroup from start to finish.
In the top right hand corner of the article, you can change it from WIndows 7 to Windows 8. I hope this helps.

I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop is running the network, and my wife's HP Win 7 laptop prints to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I do have the latest driver installed. I didn't have a problem when I had a Canon Pixma on the network, but when I replaced it with the Epson nothing seems to work. I go to add a printer to the queue and only the FAX function of the printer shows up - not the WS-4530 print function. Does anyone out there have any suggestions? Please??? :-)

Hi Kelly,
As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

Start with the section titled Check the network.

Emet 5.1 had DEP activity and closed Office 2003 applications and won't allow Internet Explorer to open in Windows 8 desktop version

I can't find any answer to why EMET 5.1 blocks Internet Explorer from running in Windows 8 Desktop version. Initially Google Chrome wouldn't work either but after uninstalling EMET 5.1 and reinstalling it Chrome now works. Also it prevents Microsoft
Office 2003 Word, Excel, Access, Outlook and Publisher from running. It says DEP mitigation and closing application. I also get the error that Microsoft Office Access or other applications has stopped working and they only work under safe mode.
How do you get these applications to work in EMET 5.1? Do I need to get rid of EMET 5.1? Or are there other solutions.
Thanks,
Chris

Do you still use Office 2003 or did you mean Office 2013?

How to display more than one documents on windows 8 desktop?

how to display more than one documents on windows 8 desktop?

Adobe Reader Touch doesn't show more than one file on screen and doesn't show them on the desktop. Apparently these are very old fashioned things that Microsoft doesn't think we'll want to do any more and calls them "legacy" to make them sound antiquated.
If you want to do these things use the legacy Adobe Reader, a much more powerful and flexible app (and not obsolete in the slightest). http://get.adobe.com/reader . There are no legacy apps in the Windows App Store.

Migrate an iTunes library from one computer to another
These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entireiTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one, with ratings, play counts, playlists etc. preserved. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd normally recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library and unlike copying with Windows Explorer the process can be resumed if it is interrupted and it will continue to the next item if there are any read/access errors.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See Make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

Does the new AirpotExtreme work with a windows XP desktop?

So i have my sittuation at home: i have an very old d-link router with internet in it and from the router i have a wired connection with a Windows Xp desktop computer. With this new Time Capsule/Airport Extreme can i change my 5 years old router? Or it is a must to have a Windows Vista/7?
Windows Xp it is supported by the New Time capsule?

Any iOS device with airport utility can set it up.. you must know someone with an iphone or ipad if you don't own one yourself.
If you have no Apple products buy the Asus RT-N66U and a NAS.. you will be much happier.

I am adding new photos to my PC windows 7 desktop but they are not syncing to my ipad when I sync the Ipad. How can I get these photos into my Ipad?

Skydiver.
you and I know that your answer works because that is how I sync my ipad. I don't have a mac, just a PC with itunes. Now this guy might not even have itunes and is using Windows Media Player or something like that.
Or maybe he just do not want his problem fixed. I read these forums and too many of the questions are just way beyond basic computer knowledge, but it seems to happen that they can never resolve a very simple problem. It makes me wonder if people just post bogus stuff.
I would like to see registration to the forums attached to the product serial number of the forum you are posting to. I bet you that the posts would drop dramatically.

uninstall pse 10 (properly using the adobe uninstaller).

then try reinstalling using the adobe installation file(s).

Hi all. I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues. Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem. …without even a re-boot.
Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive. Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab. Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
Open the Users folder.
Open your user folder
Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
Open the Installer Cache folder
In Details view sort on Name
Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco. The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”. Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear. Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
Good luck…
