Task bar fails after undock

I have a t61 with vista and the lenovo dock.
Whenever I undock the taskbar goes clear and doesn't show any of the programs that are running or the system tray icons. They're still there and i can get the info by hovering, but the icons are gone. put it back on the dock and they return...
Any clue why this is happening?
Thanks,

It sounds a lot like that it could be failing at the client installation. Please take a look at the client installation logs.

Here are the log files from c:\windows\ccmsetup\logs .. I took a glance and things run with success 0 which should mean no error right? The system also has the client installed with the CU2 patch.
Client Logs
Searched a bit online and people are saying it's due to the incorrect boot image. I was using a WinPE 5.0 I created on this TS but I'm going to make another and see where it goes.
This was the solution.

Task sequence fails after upgrading to 2012 R2 and MDT 2013

After upgrading to 2012 R2, my task sequence fails after the Setup Windows and ConfigMGR & Restart Computer. Instead of continuing to run the task sequence and load up the MDT Toolkit Package, it just stops at the Windows 7 login screen.
Do I need to create new toolkit & settings packages with MDT 2013 settings? Or do I just need to create a new task sequence?
I can't figure out what log to look at on the VM that I am imaging. If someone can point it out maybe there's some useful information. Thanks.

T60, Advanced Mini-Dock: Wireless connection fails after undock

I have a Thinkpad T60 that I use at work, normally docked in a Thinkpad Advanced Mini-Dock, but occasionally undock (to bring to a meeting, etc.). Normally, the wireless works fine -- I can connect to the wireless network at work, to my home wireless network, and to public access points (e.g. at a coffee shop) with no trouble. In the past, at work, when I undocked the machine, the ThinkVantage Access Connections application would automatically switch me from my wired LAN connection to the office's wireless LAN, and everything would work great.
However, about a month ago, I started experiencing a problem where after I undock, ThinkVantage Access Connections doesn't automatically connect me to the office wireless network. If I manually try to get ThinkVantage Access Connections to connect to the wireless network (by left-clicking on the ThinkVantage Access Connections in the system tray and selecting [my work network name] | Connect from the context menu that appears), it fails; the connection attempt fails on the "Applying Wireless Settings" step (the very first step).
From this failed state, if I leave the computer undocked and reboot it, the wireless will work ok following the reboot. (The "Applying Wiress Settings" step seems to take an abnormally long time in this case, but it does eventually succeed.)
I'm running Windows XP SP2, and ThinkVantage Access Connections 4.52 (the current latest version). The wireless card is the "Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG"; it is running driver version 11.05.0.APIc (the current latest version).
This problem *may* have started happening immediately after I installed a round of updates through the ThinkVantage System Update application (I'm not 100% sure). I can see via System Update's Install History window that both Access Connections 4.52 and the 11.05.0.APIc wireless card driver were installed on 5/16/2008.
One other data point: Yesterday, after undocking my machine, the "Access Connections Main Service" crashed (I got the typical Windows XP "[application] has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" dialog.) I manually restarted Access Connections via its Start menu entry (Start | Programs | ThinkVantage | Access Connections), and after that, I *was* able to successfully connect to the wireless network without rebooting.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a better solution than rebooting after each undock, or possibly, manually killing and restarting the ThinkVantage Access Connections process after each undock?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Reverting to ThinkVantage Access Connections 4.42 solved this problem for me. (As noted above, I was previously running 4.52.) My laptop now once again automatically and successfully connects to the local wireless network following an undock.
I do get an error dialog now on an undock or redock. Dialog caption: "netsh.exe - Unable to Locate Component". Dialog text: "This application has failed to start because framedyn.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."
However, the error dialog seems to be "harmless" in that at least my network connections are now working like they should, and it's easy enough to click the OK button to dismiss the dialog.

I used to have task or shortcuts show up when I would right click on the FF Icon on the task bar. After installing 4.0 they are all gone. How do I get these back? or restore them to what they were?

Win 7 task bar has a Fire Fox Icon. Before installing FF 4.0 I could right click on the Icon and it would show short cuts to various sights, which when clicked on would open that sight in FF.
They are all gone now. What happened? Is there a way to get these back?

A few hidden preferences to check to make sure that the jump lists are enabled:
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# In the filter box type '''browser.taskbar.lists''' this should bring up a few preferences
# To enable all parts of the jump list, make sure the following preferences are set to '''true''', if they are not double-click to them to change their value
## browser.taskbar.lists.enabled
## browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled
## browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled
## browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled

Task Sequence Failing after Stating Boot Image and Restart in WinPE - Windows XP to Windows 7

Good Morning,
I am trying to upgrade an XP Machine to Windows 7 (x86). I was using the boot image inbuilt with SCCM 2012 R2 but read that it wont work correcltly. I am using Windows PE 3.1 boot image to boot.
The TS fails after trying to restart in Windows PE when staging the boot image.
From the Logs in CCM\Logs\SMSTSLog
I am still getting the same issue as when i am using the Boot image from ADK 8.1.
Anybody has an idea on how to solve this issue ? I have read a workaround about replacing the bootsect from the boot image but funily i am using an older boot image.
Kind Regards,
Mathieu

Task Sequence Fails after Software Updates Install Step - Lenovo X240

Hi All.
I'm having a strange issue trying to run an OSD on Lenovo X240 machines.
After the Software Update step, it reboots as expected, then exits the task sequence and sends you to the windows logon screen.
Review the SMSTS.log, it appears the reason is:
Found network adapter "Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260" with IP Address 0.0.0.0.
TSMBootstrap 24/07/2014 15:07:10
1824 (0x0720)
Found network adapter "Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I218-LM" with IP Address 0.0.0.0.
TSMBootstrap 24/07/2014 15:07:10
1824 (0x0720)
Full log file:
SMSTS.log
If I remove the Software Updates step, the task sequence completes without any problems.
Don't think it is a driver error, as above, every other step completes without issue. Other models use the same task sequence (including software updates step) without any problems.
Any ideas? I'm completely stuck.
Thanks!

Looks like I am deploying KB2965788 which requires two restarts.
Thanks all for your help.
P.S. - I periodically update the base image with a build & capture to include the latest updates, so in the times between this I deploy the software updates as part of the task sequence.
I've found the offline servicing to be very flaky, have attempted to use it many times and found it either a) doesn't apply the updates to the image b) corrupts the image.

Todays update! After todays update I can no longer send Safari or Spotify to the task bar without it cutting out (dropping audio in and out). Streams normally if I keep the window open on my desktop. This needs to be fixed immediately.

How to make my application icon ancor in task bar after Installation

I want my application icon to acor in the task bar after installation such that users can right-clik on it
do some changes to the applications. I want it in the active icons bar next to the timer (around there). How do I achieve this

After Firefox has been on for awhile, the Firefox tabs on the task bar disappear even though the pages are still running. I have to use Ctrl+Tab to fix it

I have started using Firefox recently. My computer is running XP. I notice that whether I have one Firefox window or multiple windows open, after awhile the Firefox tabs on the bottom task bar just disappear.
In order to get them back I have to use Ctrl+Tab to select each window one at a time and then they re-appear again on the task bar. Then after awhile they will disappear again.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item: 
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]] 
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
Thank you.

After updating waterfox 12.0 to 15.0, but while launching from task bar its giving error not compatable version 15.0 min/max version 12.0

after updating waterfox 12.0 to 15.0, and i opend the app and pin it to the task bar (windows 7 64bit enterprise edition) but while launching from task bar its giving error not compatable version 15.0 min version 12.0 ,max version 12.0

Such an error is caused by some files that weren't updated successfully, so you are left with a mixture of files from different Firefox versions. 
There is usually some security software involved that protects .ini files against modification (update).
You will still have to do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a new copy of Firefox.

Unpin from Task bar AFTER program is deleted

I have a situation where I am trying to use PowerShell to Unpin a shortcut from the task bar after the program has been deleted. The shortcut has been renamed (from the idiotic name Autodesk used to start with) and thus it is orphaned after uninstall because
Windows doesn't manage these things gracefully. The code I am using uses the common approach of digging into the shortcut to extract the Verbs array, and then assigned the Unpin verb to $Verb and then does a $Verb.DoIt(). But of course the the target no longer
exists, so there is no Verbs object to dig a Verb out of.
I have found the various related posts, and there are issues
1: Deleting the reg key and losing all pinned items is a no go. I am removing one piece of software, and I want to remove that shortcut and no others.
2: I know I can do this manually, but my whole goal is automation, and the fact that I CAN do it manually suggests there should be a way to do it with PowerShell.
3: I have tried getting the Verb from the shortcut as well, but it seems like the shortcut really is just a passthrough to the Target, so no target, no Verb from the shortcut.
4: I have also tried just deleting the shortcut file from User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar, but that leaves an even more orphaned shortcut on the task bar, that not only doesn't have a target, it doesn't
even have an icon, just a white "page".
So, how does one get to whatever Verbs are being accessed when doing this manually? Is there some way to apply a generic Verb?
Gordon

Okay so after some digging i found a way for you to do it but the best way i have found is using the actual user rights. I tested this out as a login script that ran before the user even saw their desktop.
The task bar has a registry key that has to be cleared and when explorer is started the key gets created based on the items listed in the directory the shortcuts are stored. If you have any issues let me know.
#Remove the chached settings in the registry. This will comeback once explorer is restarted
get-item -path HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Taskband -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue |
remove-itemproperty -name Favorites, FavoritesRemovedChanges, FavoritesChanges, FavoritesResolve, FavoritesVersion -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue |
Out-Null
#Remove ShortCut From Current User:
Remove-Item -Path "C:\Users\$($Env:UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar\Pandora.lnk" -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Out-Null
#Restart Explorer
Stop-Process -Name "explorer" -Force | Out-Null
#once explorer stops it should restart itself

Hi M0M1!
I have an article for you that seems to describe your issue and can provide some helpful troubleshooting steps for this issue:
iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
Specifically, you will want to focus on this section of the article:
User-specific troubleshooting
If you experience the issue in one particular user account, the suggestions below may resolve the issue. Before proceeding, you'll need to make hidden files and folder visible in Windows using steps 1-5.
Remove iTunes Preference files. Some of the files that iTunes stores settings and preferences in may be unusable. iTunes saves its preferences in two folders. Move one of them to the desktop and test to see if the issue persists. If it does, move it back and remove the second folder. The locations for the preference folders are:
c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
Create a new iTunes Library.
Hold the Shift key while opening iTunes. You'll be asked to choose an iTunes library.
Choose Create Library.
In the following window, select a location to save the new iTunes Library.
Click Save. iTunes will open the new library. After you close iTunes, you can always select the original library by holding the Shift key while opening iTunes.
Recreate your iTunes Library. If your iTunes library has become unusable, rebuilding it may resolve the issue.
Check for issues with content files. Sometimes an audio file can cause iTunes to quit unexpectedly or stop responding when it's analyzing gapless playback information. To determine which file may be causing the issue, follow the steps below:
Quit iTunes.
Navigate to the iTunes folder:
Windows Vista: c:\users\username\Music\iTunes
Windows 7 and Windows 8: c:\users\username\My Music\iTunes
Move the iTunes Library.itl file to your desktop.
Open iTunes. You shouldn't see any content in iTunes.
Choose File > Add Folder to Library.
Navigate to the folder where your music is located:
Windows Vista: c:\users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
Windows 7 and Windows 8: c:\users\username\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
Choose an artist, album, or song to add to the library.
Wait for iTunes to successfully add the item to your library and perform the gapless playback scan.
If successful, continue adding songs to your library.
If there is an issue with one of your files, you'll notice your issue reappear after you add it to the library. You should repeat these steps, being careful not to add the files that caused the issue.
Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

Alright, well let's try this then.
Restart your computer. After you restart your PC, let's try starting Firefox up in Safe Mode. Read [[Safe Mode|this article]] to see how to start in Safe Mode. If Firefox starts up normally, then this is likely a problem with your extensions, so we will need to disable them one by one (or disable them all and re-enable them one by one) to figure out the offender.
Another thing is please update to Firefox 11 (go to [[www.getfirefox.com|www.getfirefox.com]] to download it since you can't get Firefox open to update). It does have some bug fixes that might help your problem.

False to minimize the task bar after I remove JavaFX stage buttons

After I use "primaryStage.initStyle(StageStyle.UNDECORATED);" or "StageStyle.TRANSPARENT", I found stage can not be minimized to task bar(when click the task bar).

Hey,
I want to run a LabVIEW Application (EXE File, LabVIEW 8.2) everytimes in backgrund. Frontpanel should visible only on activation. After minimize application only a small icon (not the large Task Button!) should visible on right corner of Task Bar. Is that possible by a LabVIEW Application?
Thank's in advance.
Kind regards

The right corner of the Task Bar is called System Tray.
This can be done with G Toolbox -> Systray Icon VIs:
