Unix command to stop Software updates for all users except admins?
I want to stop App Store and other software updates for all user accounts. Administrator accounts should still be able to do Software Updates.
Is there a terminal command that can do that i can push out through ARD?
Thanks
Managed preferences are the best bet. You could use Profile Manager or use the mcx command from the command line. I'd strongly suggest browsing over this before delving into MCX though...

(the Workgroup Manager application shown is deprecated, but it's essentially the same with Profiles and running MCX from the command line)

Java closes IE for all users except admin - help!
I have citrix installed using AD and GPO's. If I login as administrator then I can use java fine. if I login as a user then anytime I try to goto a web site or luanch the java console it closes with no error messages. it is as if I didn't even run the application. I have enabled the setting int he GPO for java, is there another one I am mising?
Please advise...I'd guess the 'legal' way to do this is via the Exchange Shell. Try Get-OWAVirtualDirectory | fl and see what the authentication methods are. Then try Get-ECPVirtualDirectory | fl
Try also looking at the properties of the ECP directory in IIS Manager, and see if IWA is enabled.
The settings should be configured using the shell, though, to make sure that what is stored in the Exchange configuration in AD correctly reflects what is set in IIS, which doesn't keep that sort of information in AD.

Download same software update for each user account? is this right?
i am sorry if this is the wrong place, i have looked all over these discussions for help and help is what i need. i downloaded the iphone 3.0 software update on one user account and installed it. then i logged into another user account on the same imac so i could apply that 3.0 update to another iphone and it made me re-download the entire update? is that normal for each individual user to have to download the exact same update separately? it seems like such a waste of time to download the same update two times.

Not sure o the iPhone SW, but much Software has an option to install for all Users or just one... if running from an Admin account. -
How do I disable the itunes auto-update for all users?
I need to know if there is a way to disable the auto-update feature for all users that login to a windows XP computer.
I have disabled it for the account currently logged in as well as copy that user profile to the "default user" profile. However I have about 300 users that do not have admin rights that still get prompted to install updates.
Is there a way to disable the auto update as the default for all users. So that only I get the auto update notifications?Bump -

Install security updates for all users
I am using the a form with digital signatures fields, and when a user logs onto a pc and opens the form Adobe asks if you would like to install new security settings. I tell my user to click yes, but there are multiple users on multiple PCs that will be using this form. Is there a way to install this same setting for all users? I am using Adobe reader 9.3, and the form was deisgned with Designer. Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks!It would seem like that article ''should'' solve the problem, but it doesn't seem to have had any effect. I extracted the contents of the .xpi file into the browsers\extensions folder using the extension ID, yet that doesn't seem to have done anything. I ran firefox after copying the uncompressed files with an administrator account with no luck. Any thoughts?

"Important software update for Windows users"
Adobe made an announcement at the top of the forearm to go to Help/Updates and install the update. In what program do we do this? Sorry but it's not obvious to me. If I choose help and support in Windows 7 I get a screen that I can search on numerous, maybe countless, topics. Maybe I'm just getting too old for all this.
The announcement at the top of the Photoshop forum mentions Photoshop, specifically.
The announcement at the top of the Lightroom forum doesn’t mention Photoshop and only says Lightroom is not affected.
The LR version of the announcement really should have mentioned it was for Photoshop so people wouldn’t be confused. -
Alternative UPN suffix exists for all users except new user
Hello,
I am updating AD based on how it was setup by an outside IT company. I am not an IT professional myself. When I view the current user properties on the account tab, each user has 2 options in the UPN drop box; namely, mydomain.local & mydomain.com.
All users are set to mydomain.com. I've added a new user to the same group in AD but there is only the mydomain.local option in the drop down. Does anyone know why or how I can get the two options so I can choose the mydomain.com?Hi,
If you add the Alternative UPN suffix correctly in
Active DIrectory Domains and trusts, you could choose the UPN suffix even for the new user account.
As other said, please make sure the Alternative UPN suffix is added, and create test user account to check the result.

Remove Collapse/expand icons from the tray for all user except administrato
Hi,
My requirement is to remove the expand/collapse icons from the overview page for all the user but administrator can have those available.
I have set the show tray property to NO , this has made the complete tray invisible for all including the administartor as well.
I want the only icons to be inviisble and not for administrator.
Please provide your valuable inputs.
Thanks
PoojaHi
The best practice in Portal is to create 2 different design, one for users, one for administrators. I mean design : Desktop, Framework Page, Theme ...and so on.
This allows you to manage two ways of displaying or not informations, for sure user view should be different of administrator view.
And you also in your case you should have tow different "overview" iViews, one for users one for administrators.
The "show tray" property should be yes (otherwise you won't see anyting ), but the property "Show Expand/Collapse icon in tray" to NO.
I hope it will help
Best regards

PO delivery date field to be made display for all users except one user
Hi All,
I have a specific requirement:
The delivery date field in PO should be made display only at the time of changing the PO. I know pretty well that this can be achieved thru Define Screen Layout at document level, which inturn will make this field disaply mode to all users.
But it should be in changeable mode only for one user. how can we achieve this.
Any ideas, please
/R
AntonyHi ,
You can create a authorization object(Z one) which can be assigned to the user id who need authorization of change .
In the exit , you can specify the logic that if SY-USER (current user) has the authorization id , the system will allow to change . If the user doesn't have the object in his roles , the system would not allow to change .
This will help in providing / removing access to any user id .

Change language to all users except admin
Hello
I hope this is the right forum.
I was wondering if there is a way to change the interface & keyboard languages to all regular users except the admin?
1. What I am trying to do is basically to change an English interface into a Russian. How do I do it. Is it have to do with adding/changing anything in GPO?
2. What files if any do I need to make a change like that?
The machine runs Windows Server 2008 R2
What I need is that not only the Windows interface will change, but possibly other software that run on the server will show Russian/Cyrillic
Thank youyou wont change the OS language im quite sure of that. that need to be selected at point of install
as for keyboards ive used this guide and it worked for me http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/6281.how-to-set-the-keyboard-layout-through-group-policy-gpo.aspx -
Acrobat Pro 9- turn of update for all users in terminal environment
I have Adobe Pro 9 installed on several terminal servers. Everytime users login they are seeing an insufficient rights for updating Adobe. I don't want to give them rights but the Configuration Wizard isn't out yet. The sales department conveniently forgot to tell me it wasn't out but sold me on the fact it would fix some of our headaches. I need some kind of fix please.
