User Settings Not Retained

Second Admin account with different user name. Set up desktop/user settings etc. Log out and log back in. Hard drive and other icons not on desktop. Dock apps revert to default. Safari history and bookmarks disappeared. Other anomalies.
???

My apologizes on the below post - do you get the same response when you reboot the WLC and hit 'ESC' for additional boot options - and then clear the config this way?

  • Share Point 2013 - User Settings not initialised

    Hi there, 
    We are using the SharePoint 2013 server on top of Windows 2012.
    We've recently created  user profile application service and activated the Site Feed feature. 
    After that one of our users experiences an annoying thing, she is being redirected from the Home Page to another page that says "Edit user settings" and "User settings not initialized ". No other user is experiencing these issues. Please
    help.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that a spectial user got "Edit User Settings" when visiting a site collection.
    I recommend to
    remove the user from that site collection completly and then re-add him. You can select Site Settings, under "Users and Permissions", click People and groups. Select the group and user to remove it.
    In addition, you need to check the user permission. You can select Site Settings, under "Site permissions", click People and groups. Click Check Permissions, enter the user.
    Here is a similar thread for you to take a look at:

  • SRM user settings not populated

    Hello,
    We are using SAP SRM 7.02 with NWBC and  we are testing this in sandbox.user id has been assigned to sap_all and new and SAPSRM/employee_ehp1 role.
    NWBC Launched --> Click on SRM user settings---> not populating the details/page navigation to details page is not opening.Pls see the screen shots.
    When click on the SRM user settings same page is opening.
    Please provide you inputs to resolve this.

    You observation is correct and it is the standard design of such portal roles as SRM Administrator, SRM Strategic Purchaser, or SRM Operational Purchaser to not have "personalization", but only Employee Self Service role.

  • General Settings not retained when connecting via VPN

    Forum,
    We have a user who connects to SAP via a VPN connection. Since then they have found that any form settings/column amendments made are not being retained when next logging into SAP.
    When these changes were made direct in the office, they are retained.
    My question. Is there any differences in how the settings are retained within SAP when accessing via a VPN?
    Regards,
    Juan

    Hi,
    When using your VPN are yo using Terminal LIcense or Remote Desktop Connection?
    Please do the following to save form settings:
    1. Only 1 module should be open when using form settings.
        Close other modules that doesn't need.
    2. Close the module after changed. To make sure the settings are saved.
    3. Always close all the module before exiting SBO program, use the click FIle and Exit habit.
    4. Terminal Licensing should be use when connecting remotely.
    Thanks.

  • Office 2010 User Settings NOT Migrated After Uninstall-Upgrade to 2013

    Greetings,
    We are in the final stages of preparing for an enterprise rollout of Office 2013, upgrading our user base from Office 2010. When we deployed Office 2010, we used the Office scrubber tool to remove Office 2003 and install Office 2010. Employing this same
    technique, which is
    fully documented by Microsoft as the recommended approach, the user settings from Office 2010 do not migrate to Office 2013. For example, the default save paths. If you set this to say, "C:\Temp", in Office 2010, that path will be changed
    after upgrading to 2013. There are other settings impacted as well and hoping that someone has seen this or knows what might be going on. The method we've used during pilot is an in-place upgrade from 2010 to 2013 and that will retain settings but we also
    see cases where the upgrade isn't clean and components of Office 2010 can be left behind. It is critical to a successful deployment that the uninstall-upgrade approach works flawlessly.
    Thanks,

    Hi Jori,
    There are three types of permissions in the Manage User Permissions in User Profile Service Application(UPS): Create Personal Site, Follow People and Edit Profile and Use Tags and Notes.
    If all the three permissions have been revoked from the user, then the user will not existed in the Manage User Permissions in UPS.
    So you don’t need to anything else to remove the users from Mange User Permission in UPS after revoking all the permissions from the user.
    As for the error when accessing Mange User Permissions in UPS, I recommend to restart the User Profile Service and add the user account to the Administrators of the User Profile Service Application.
    In Central Administration, highlight the User Profile Service Application and then click Administrators in the ribbon.
    If above cannot work, please provide more error message for the correlation ID in ULS log for further research.
    For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS.
    Best regards.

  • User Settings not working.  Please help!

    <TD noWraplign=right>I am trying to build some interactive portlets using User prefs and have had no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Here is my code for the first portlet (view_course_defaultView is set as a user preference in the web service):
    privatevoidPage_Load(objectsender, System.EventArgs e)
    IPortletContext context = PortletContextFactory.CreatePortletContext(Request, Response);
    IPortletRequest pRequest = context.GetRequest();
    IPortletResponse pResponse = context.GetResponse();
    IPortletUser user = context.GetUser();
    try
    if(user.HasSettingsRight(SettingType.User))
    pResponse.SetSettingValue(SettingType.User, "view_course_defaultView", "All");
    else
    Response.Write("You can't do that");
    catch(Exception ex)
    Response.Write(ex.Message + ex.StackTrace);
    Here is my code for the second portlet (again view_course_defaultView is set as a User preference in the Web Service):
    privatevoidPage_Load(objectsender, System.EventArgs e)
    try
    IPortletContext pContext = PortletContextFactory.CreatePortletContext(Request, Response);
    IPortletResponse pResponse = pContext.GetResponse();

    IPortletUser pUser = pContext.GetUser();
    if(pUser.HasSettingsRight(SettingType.User))
    Response.Write(pRequest.GetSettingValue(SettingType.User, "view_course_defaultView"));
    Response.Write(pRequest.GetSettingCollection(SettingType.User).Count);
    catch(Exception ex)
    Response.Write(ex.Message + ex.StackTrace);
    The only thing written to the screen in the second portlet is 0 for the User settings count. Does anyone see what I am doing wrong?
    Thanks,

    I am having the same issue.  The Admin, Portal and CommunityPortal prefs set fine.  However, the user pref will not set.  Could this be because this pref is not to be set in this manner?

  • User Settings Not Saved

    Hello,
    I am using the VB .Net Autoupdater for my app, its working perfect however.
    Lets say I am using version 1.0.0.10, Initially when the app ran after I installed it I had to fill in a bunch of user settings via a form a created.
    I can close the app, re-open it and the user settings are saved, all is good. Now
    I need to make a change and now have version 1.0.0.11 I use the autoupdater and it pulls down the .exe file overwrites the existing .exe.
    Now when I launch the app again, the correct version is used however I have to re-enter my user settings again.
    How can I preserve my user settings without using a Click Once install?
    Thanks
    MW

    Sure,
    I'm always open to learn new ways of doing something.
    Thanks
    MW
    Ok, have a look at the code that I posted on a page of my website here.
    It's very specific to what you want saved and how it's to work, so that's what you'll see: It's very much customized to what he wanted.
    One important part is what you'll see early on:
    Private Shared _instance As Settings
    and this:
    Private Sub New()
    End Sub
    Those are private, so only that class can access it. The backing field (variable) is shared so that it's relevant to the class as a whole, not to any instance of it; that is -- there can only ever be one instance of it.
    The constructor is parameterless and PRIVATE, so that the consumer of that class can't create an instance; that's only done through the shared method meant to do it:
    Public Shared Sub GetInstance(ByRef instance As Settings)
    See what I mean?
    Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.

  • WDJ - Right click- User settings , not working at all times

    We are working on SAP Netweaver 7.4.
    We have developed WDJ applications in PO server and are displaying the application in SAP EP using the remote iview method.
    Our requirement: We need to show the users , right click ->User settings so that they can modify the view.
    Steps taken: The allowuserpersonalisation has been set to True.
    Issue:
    Not all of the remote WDJ application are showing the User settings.
    For e.g: If it is working for WDJ application A, it is not working for WDJ application B.
    Here is where it gets more confusing !!!:
    If role A contains WDJ application A and role B contains WDJ application B.
    then:
    1) if WDJ application B is assigned to the role A, then the User settings start working for it
    2) if WDJ application A is assigned to the role B, then the User settings still work for it
    3) if WDJ application B is assigned to the role C, then the User settings do not work.
    Can anyone please help?

    Hi,
    normal right mouseclick is disabled as of 710 I guess, I assume you mean the ctrl+alt+right mouse click, right?
    Also , I am not sure I fully understand your A-B-C example. Can you please elaborate it in a less abstract way? Can you show concrete examples what is not working regarding the end-user personalization? Are all wd java applications running in a non-standalone way when you test end-user personalization?

  • Folder view settings not retained in Leopard

    Anyone else seen this problem ?
    I like to have different folders with different view settings - some icon, some list, and now some coverflow. But, it doesn't retain these settings, it just reverts to whatever view I was looking at last, and applies that to all folders.
    This is intensely annoying !
    Tiger didn't used to do that.
    Is there a solution ?

    I've done that. I have all my folders set to open in Icon view except my Music folder, which is set for List view, but I still have the problem with the settings not sticking.
    I'm not sure if this is related, but when I got back a folder, the Finder doesn't always remember where I was, ie., I'll be at the bottom of my Applications folder, go to the Utilities folder and then go back to Applications at the top.)

  • Fields in User settings not filled

    Hi
    Under user settings in tab "Position" the field Dept. and Position is not filled. The user is correctly maintained in PPOMA_BBP. The user was maintained in SRM with the use of transaction USERS_GEN.
    What could be wrong?
    This causes some dumps for the user when he wants to look at created SC.
    Sincerely
    Anders

    Hi Anders
    do you see two tabs
    POSITION + USER ACCOUNT
    i think in fist time you may not see Position details and go to User account tab click.
    First you go to user acount tab and click and again you go back and click position and again you go to user account and come back to POSITION.
    later you can see Dept and position at right hand side.

  • Volume settings not retained

    Hi guys,
    I have been having a problem with my Mac Book from the start. According to what I have read on the Internet my Intel based Mac Book should retain volume settings separately for my headphones and my internal speakers.
    Meaning that once I have changed the settings for the volumes it should set the correct volume if I connect my headphones or use my internal speakers. This does happen and work normally.
    However after restarting my Mac Book volume settings are not retained and once I connect my headphones the volume is set to 56%. Similarly this happens for my internal speakers as well.
    This also describes my problem http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?t=88936
    Could someone help me out with this, I have already reset my PRAM and NVRAM
    So the option described on this page does not work for me.

    Message was edited by: W.R.R. Farid

    I have suffered this problem too.
    Both pair of my headphones, one came with iPod, are loud enough at 6%.
    56% is surely going to kill my ears.
    I've been googling around and found no solution.
    But this is not the most depressing thing.
    Let's take a look at this
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24586
    *Last Modified: March 08, 2007*
    Obviously Apple was aware of this problem two years ago. And the only solution is to "adjust the volume level and balance as desired after restarting the computer."
    Waht the __?!
    This is not even a real solution.
    Why wounldn't OS X just remember custom volume settings for headphones?
    When are you going to correct this issue any way?

  • Timezone from portal user settings not used in DateNavigator

    Hi experts
    I'm facing a problem with DateNavigator component.
    There is a WDJ application that used with different timezones in NW Portal.
    In the app there is a DateNavigator which bound to the date context attribute.
    When user select some date in DateNavigator, system converts selected date to the context using system default timezone, rather than timezone in portal user settings. This leads to the fact that the time in context is wrong - the system considers that user works in "Default" timezone but really user works in its own timezone, which different with default.
    If I force TimeZone.setDefault(WDClientUser.getCurrentUser().getTimeZone()) everything works fine, but this is an empty and wrong way.
    I'm using NW 7.2 CE.
    Thanks in advice, how to solve this issue!

Please note that in 6.3 calendar express is a deprecated interface so you should be making every effort to move to UWC/CE anyway.

  • Header portlet issue: User settings not passed to Header portlet on "My Pages"

    I am trying to write a header portlet which reads User Settings (User preference). The settings are retrieved correctly and the header portlet works fine on a Community portlet but when browsing "My Pages" or "Knowledge Directory" the settings are not being passed to the header portlet. I have tried this on multiple portals and I get the same behavior. Can you kindly let me know the cause of the problem and help me fix this issue Thanks,Rakesh

    I was able to figure out setting the global display on the default pages, but I'm still stymied at how to set the display for the page portlets for user customizations. In instances where users have added a page portlet, only the portlet header is displayed. I've done the following to try to fix the situation:
    - Deleted and regenerated the page portlets
    - Refreshed the repository
    - Refreshed the display for individual user pages
    Nothing seems to work. This is a major showstopper for us: we are scheduled to go "live" with the 9.0.2.6 version on Friday, and we do not want to ask users to recustomize their pages.
    Windows; 9.0.2.6

  • [solved] firefox user settings not saving

    I am a linux noob. So the answer to this is probably very obvious, but I haven't found it through googling, searching these forums or the arch wiki. I am having the same problem with most of my applications actually. The problem is that my firefox personal settings are not saving. When I reboot all of the addons are gone, the tabs are back on top, and everything is reset as if this were the first time I've run the program. I'm having a similar problem with lxpanel. I suspect it has something to do with post-installation home directory config files and not knowing what to do for each program. The only setup I've done for firefox is # yaourt -S firefox-esr. A whereis firefox-esr yields only /usr/bin/firefox-esr. Just the executable file itself I guess.
    Although the arch wiki firefox page doesn't seem to specifically mention losing all settings there is something about setting a download location that caught my eye: XDG directories:
    It says to create ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs and add:
    XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="/home/<user>/"
    XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="/home/<user>/<dir>"
    XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="/home/<user>/<dir>"
    XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="/home/<user>/<dir>"
    XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="/home/<user>/<dir>"
    XDG_MUSIC_DIR="/home/<user>/<dir>"
    XDG_PICTURES_DIR="/home/<user>/<dir>"
    XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="/home/<user>/<dir>"
    I'm not sure if this has something to do with the temporary nature of my personal firefox settings, but it seems like a move in the right direction. I get that tip of the iceberg feeling though. I've been meaning to look up all of that freedesktop.org stuff including .desktop and .directory files and standard locations. I assume that this is part of that and not only for firefox specifically.
    If anyone could point me in the right direction in terms of how to set up the user directories and files necessary for saving firefox settings I would be very grateful. Or maybe I installed the program wrong?
    I am not using a desktop environmnt. Just (for the moment) pekwm, lxpanel, and idesk. Presumably that's part of the problem. That going modular is much more difficult for a Linux noob. If I were using kde or gnome I'm guessing a lot of this post-installation application setup would be done for me automatically.
    edit: I just found this information on the location of the firefox profile in linux.  It says that profile folders are located in "~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile folder>". At first I thought I didn't have this folder, but I do. So I'm not sure why the settings and addons are not saving.

    It might be a better idea to change permissions with "chown" : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Permissions#chown

  • Printer settings not retained in preferences

    Hey Everyone
    I need a little help. An error occurs everytime I try to select my Canon MP460 from the printer Preferences menu in the System Preferences window. I click the add button, it shows up with the driver and location filled in the pull down menus/boxes. Then I hit the Add button and a message comes up "An error occurred while tryint to add the selected printer. The printing service is not available."
    I have tried holding the control button down and resetting the printer settings. To no avail. I did go to Terminal and type Sudo Cupsd.
    That worked and loaded my printer. BUT, after I rebooted the machine, the settings were lost and I received the same error message as above when trying to add the printer again. So it seems I have to go to Terminal everytime I boot and type "Sudo cupsd" to load my printer.
    Any thoughts? Thanks (I also trashed the printing preference files (plist) in an attempt to fix this problem, again to no avail.

    Fixed the problem. Thanks for reading my question. For those with this problem, I found permissions errors on the org.cups.cupsd.plist file in Launch Daemons, which is strange considering I do not remember touching this file in any way. But after the repair, I opened the System Preferences:Printer and Fax settings. It gave me the error. I used Terminal and typed in "Sudo cupsd" and then my password. This allows the Printer/Fax Settings to be set in System Preferences without any errors. I set the printer as the default in Printer Settings, I restarted and it retained everything.
