Toshiba Power Saver doesn't work with limited user account

Hello,
this same question was posted in 2006 - not by me - with no successful answer. I try again.
If you create a user with restrictions account (member of the local USERS group) in XP, then he cannot manage either the embedded Windows power options, and the Toshiba Power Saving tool.
I managed, working on file and registry permissions, to have the Windows power options working. But I still can't launch the Toshiba Power Saving tool, it always pop-ups the "you don't have rights" box.
Is there really nothing I can do to work around this?
thanks

I have the exact same problem on my Tecra 9100 (PT910E) just accquired on Ebay with minimum XP Pro SP2 installation.
Akuma I tried to your advice with my Power saver version 5.04.00 (file 20071126153401) without success.
The only way I could find to run Power saver is directly from the icon in the Admin account, or through the console. I could not then find "setup options" only "Details" of the various power schemes. No "Allow Limited User to change settings" box/button anywhere.
Can you clarify further ?
thanks
Ken

Satellite M40-307: Accessibility utility doesn't work with limited user account

Hello everybody,
I have got a Satellite M40-307 (PSM44E), and I have got a problem with the "accessibility" utility, that displays an icon in the Windows XP notification bar, to let the user know whether the "Fn" key is active or not.
That this utility would not work for the administrator would not worry me a lot, as the administrator is supposed to know what he does. But the limited user does not have access to it, this more bothering.
In an administrator session, this utility works pretty fine. But in a limited user session, if I try to launch it by [runas /user:admin "C:\Program Files\TOSHIBA\Windows Utilities\TACSPROP.exe"],
I am answered that the file TCMSVR.DLL cannot be found. If I launch it normally, a message tells me that this utility requires I am connected as an administrator.
So, what can I do to use this utility normally, i.e. in a limited user session*?

Hello Markus,
Did you read ?
I executed TACSPROP with the admin rights, and it does not run.
So, to follow you, I had a look, on TACSPROP.EXE and TACSPROP.DLL, the users had "read/execute" and "read" rights. I provided "full rights", and it solved nothing.
Obviously another program must be launched before, that is by default launched only by the administrator, and I am searching what program it is.
Thank you.

Satellite A660-11M on Windows 7 - Toshiba Power Saver does not work

I have a Satellite A660-11M and I work on Windows 7 Ultimate
The problem is that I have download all drivers and updates but the toshiba power saver does not work its installed with no error and TPSLaunch (green icon) does not open when I click on it and no icon I found in the control panel for the program afterIi install all the Value Added Package!

Toshiba Power Saver is only for XP installations, you can't install the XP Drivers (and most Vista Drivers) in Windows 7.
Make sure all your drivers are for the A660, and make sure they are for Windows 7.

Tecra A2: Power Saver doesn't work properly

I have a Tecra A2 and i was using Xp Pro quite happily. Last few months the Power saver has not been working right. I have unistalled and reinstalled the software and drivers and updated BIOS. It doesn't give me a proper estimated time anymore.
When on battery it dissappears quicker and will mot give the correct time. Also the system stops every time on a Critical Battery Warning on 3pc even wen i have adjusted the Low Battery settings in the menu.?
Ignores the settings completely. Has anyone come across this b4. I have ZoneAlarm (upto date), Spysweeper and sometimes Webroot Window Washer running. I have used Registry Mechanic to test everything and Spydoctor to check system.
I use Outlook and IE regular. I use Limewire, Nero, MsN.
Help!

Hi
Usually the battery is designed for about 500 charge procedures.
You issue sound like the broken or faulty battery.
Its a normal issue that after a long working time the battery doesnt work properly and its necessary to replace it.
I recommend also to remove the battery during the working with the AC adapter. In this case your increase the battery working time (life)

Impdp work with system but doesn't work with another user

Hi,
We have troubles with import of transportable tablespace, when i try to import it with system the import is done currectly, when i try to use another user we receive this message :
impdp bmcese/***** directory=TTS_DIR dumpfile=RMCCO_RMC_ANA_STS_ABB_CO121001.dmp TRANSPORT_DATAFILES=/data/TTS/RMCCO_RMC_ANA_STS_ABB_CO121001.dbf logfile=tts_imp_proc.log
ORA-31626: il job non esiste
ORA-31633: impossibile creare la tabella principale "BMCESE.SYS_IMPORT_TRANSPORTABLE_05"

ORA-06512: a "SYS.KUPV$FT", line 1020
ORA-00959: tablespace 'RMCCO_RMC_UTZ_PP080531' inesistente
this happens only on development server and it work into test server, so i don't think that the problem is in grants(i controlled that are the same and i have tried with DBA grant too and we received the error).
Another strange thing is that tablespace 'RMCCO_RMC_UTZ_PP080531' is not included into the dump that i try to import and it doesn't exist in the database.
Thx

I've extraced the role/privs granted to BMCESE using this query
select granted_role from DBA_ROLE_PRIVS where grantee='BMCESE'
union
select privilege from DBA_SYS_PRIVS where grantee='BMCESE';
Result on Server where the impdp doesn't work:
GRANTED_ROLE
CONNECT
CREATE ANY TABLE
CREATE PROCEDURE
CREATE SESSION
CREATE TABLE
CREATE TABLESPACE
CREATE TRIGGER
CREATE VIEW
DATAPUMP_IMP_FULL_DATABASE
DROP TABLESPACE

QUERY REWRITE

UNLIMITED TABLESPACE
results on server where the impdp work:
GRANTED_ROLE
CONNECT
CREATE PROCEDURE
EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE
IMP_FULL_DATABASE
UNLIMITED TABLESPACE
BMCESE has more grant and privs on the server where the impdp doesn't work.
I've controlled the grant of read, write on the directory.
I've tried to give DBA priv too to the user.
So i don't think in a priv problem, i think that the problem is in the unexistent tablespace reported in the error.
Someone has another suggest to give.
Thx

Adobe Reader will not run with limited user account.

I am trying to upgrade our Citrix Server Farm, from Reader 8.0 to 9.1, and am running into some issues. First I uninstalled Adobe Reader 8.0 and then installed 9.1 from Adobe's site. Aftter the install completed I was able to run 9.1 without any problems. However today, when some limited users started working, they started getting runtime errors. This only happens with non-administrator user accounts.
the error messages are attached.
After clicking OK, Adobe Reader terminates.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I do believe that I solved my own problem... almost.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404597.html
"The affected user has a redirected Application Data folder and as a result the network path containing the Application Data uses a UNC path that begins with \\. This UNC path causes Acrobat 9.0 or Adobe Reader 9.0 to incorrectly parse the Application Data path and give the error message."
The article tells me to upgrade to Adobe Reader 9.1... WTF!!! 9.1 is when this problem started, 8.0 worked great! I would stay with 8.0 if I could, but some of our programs require 9.1.

Can't get iTunes to work with 2 User Accounts

I've tried to find my specific problem on previous threads but it seems that each situation is just a little different. I have two user accounts on my family shared Windows XP Home edition PC. Last week I installed my son's iPod/iTunes using the install disc. I changed the default to C:\documents and settings\user1\My Documents. Life was good. Then I got an iPod of my own. I followed the same install as above only changed the path to user2's account. I went to iTunes and everything was working just fine for user2. The next time user1 tried to access iTunes on his desktop under his Windows user account, he said it just kept searching. (Windows error message with flashlight) He decided to pop the install disc in and see what happens. (yikes!) He took all of the defaults and left both users with nothing working. Infact at that point iTunes was still on the user desktops but only pages and pages of HTML code would display if you tried to launch iTunes. I deleted all traces of itunes and iPod I could locate and went through the same reinstall process as before. I was able to locate user 2's libary and everything worked fine. (That's mine) Poor user1,(my son) we can't get anything installed to his user. The install disk recognizes only my installation and wants to remove everything first. I;ve done that a few times and still can only get user 2 working but not both.

Why does Flash not work with multiple user-accounts on a single PC?

Running XP-Professional (MediaCenter), SP3 and using IE 8, NIS 2010 (disabled during the installation of FP), 3 different user accounts on a single PC
As user A (admin) installed FP ver. 10.0.45.2, and it works fine under the admin account, however, when logging-on as user B. FP is not recognized (?) and user B is asked to intall FP agian, however, the installation fails.
After removing the FP installation (as being user A) and then install FP as user B (who has also admin rights) , FP works fine for user B, however for user A, FP is not installed/recoginzed (?), and user A is being asked to install FP, however that installation the fails, and so on and so on , . . . . .
Any suggestion to resolve this irritating behaviour?

QT Macworld keynote works with new user account

Hi,
This is a really annoying problem, I can only watch yesterdays Macworld keynote if I setup a new user account and view using that user.
When I login using my own user account the QT stream just times out. I have checked all my network and QT settings and they are exactly the same for both users. I have also tried reinstalling and the problem remains.
If anyone has any idea of what could be causing this to happen I would be very greatful.
Stephen

This worked for me!
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1543453#1543453
The fact that it works for one user and not another, I suggest looking at your locations tab in the Network control panel, and simplifying your life if you have multiple locations, and then make sure that the proxy settings (particularly the proxy.pac setting) is either reachable when you use Quicktime or not set at all. I removed it, problem solved.
Here's the image of an empty proxy.pac setting. In the network control panel, you have to scroll down to see it, so you may have missed it when you did your comparisons:

Sound doesn't work when two user accounts open?

I noticed that when I have 2 different user accounts open, the sound only works in one of them. Why is this?

The iMac is only designed to have one active user at a time, so there's sound only for the account in use.
Hope this helps

Working with multiple user accounts on the same folio/article

Hi,
i have the follwing issue:
- User A owns the folio (the one that publsihes it), the folio is shared with user B and C
- User B is the graphics designer. He does the Artwork
- Usee C should do the textutal corrections
Problem:
- User C cannot access the Articles User B has created
Question: What is the right solution for this kind of problem? Two (or more) people should be able to work on an article using their personal account. The only solution I see at the moment is to create a specific "designer-account" per folio project that all these people share.
Are there any other options
cheers
Thomas

Thanks for the quick responses.
The sharing of the data is not the problem, in fact, cloud storage can be one of the solutions. But regardless, if people work on different locations or in the same intranet, it can always happen, that designer B goes on holiday and there needs to be done a change on one of the articles inside the folio that B has been working on. It is a pitty, that Designer C cannot take over and do the changes without either having to have user/password of B or "destroying" the folio settings, removing the article completely and re-entering it drom scratch (with all correct settings, namings etc) what makes B having to do the same, as soon as he comes back. This might also have to do with the absolute path references used in folios instead of logical ones (every user can set as "folioroot" on his computer) what also would make the dropbox (or adobe cloud) approach work, as everybody would share the same subfile structure and could "jumpstart" working on the folio.
Nevertheless, thanks for the answeres, things work as they do. I was just wondering if I am doing something wrong.
We will now create shared working users per project, so everybody involved in the project will use that user.

Magic mouse - right click doesn't work in certain user accounts

Hi,
I have configured my magic mouse to enable right click in my account without issue, however, in my wife and daughter's accounts, i am unable to set it up. When i click to enable right click in mice settings, I am able to tick the box to enable right click, but as soon as I close the settings application, and then reopen, the option to enable right click is no longer selected.
All accounts have admin privileges.
Any suggestions appreciated as right clicking is helpful.

If you mean Eco mode you have to install Eco Utility from official Toshiba website.
