Users are unable to see their own profile photo although everyone else can see it in Lync 2013 client

We have Lync 2013, Exchange 2010 and several AD
servers in mixed mode 2003/2008.
All user are unable to see their own profile photo
either in the main Lync window, in the settings or in a chat although other user can see that their photo is there and displaying. The user experiencing the issue can go open Outlook 2013 client and will see their photo displaying correctly in the file menu
(and elsewhere) here.
I have confirmed this happens with any new users I set up as well. We have gone through a fair amount of troubleshooting with other Lync photo issues and simple fixes such as deleting the SIP cache folder etc proves to be ineffective.
Our Cs-ClientPolicy Global is set to websearchonly.
 We have "Replicate this attribute to the Global Catalog" set
for the ThumbnailPhoto attribute in AD.
We are also forcing photos from AD only (or no photo) by setting the following:
"Set-CsClientPolicy -Identity PhotosControl -DisplayPhoto
PhotosFromADOnly"  
and finally we are importing the photo in ad using this PS command:
"Import-RecipientDataProperty -Identity "Test User"
-Picture -FileData ([Byte[]]$(Get-Content -Path "C:\pictures\testuser.jpg" -Encoding Byte -ReadCount 0))"
The pictures being uploaded are under 10KB in size.
I have followed many threads and will provide any information I can to help find the problem. Thank you in advance.
EDIT: I have also tried the following but with no success: https://knowledge.zomers.eu/misc/Pages/How-to-fix-your-photo-not-showing-up-in-the-Lync-client.aspx

Hi Jdentremont,
Lync client gets user photos by first querying the Address Book Web Query (ABWQ) service on the server, which is exposed through the Distribution List Expansion web service. The client receives
the image file and then copies it to the user's cache to avoid downloading the image each time it needs to be displayed. The attribute values returned from the query are also stored in the cached Address Book Service entry for the user. The Address Book Service
deletes all cached images every 24 hours, which means that it can take up to 24 hours for new user images to be updated in the cache on the server.
To troubleshoot your problem, please follow the steps below:
1.  Navigate to
 “X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000” folder. (ABS file share)
You should see some photo files in this folder as the following screenshot.
2. Delete all the files in this folder.
3. On test PC, delete local cache files.
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
4. Sign-in Lync with the test account.
5. Go back to the ABS file share, check if there is any Photo file in the folder.
Best regards,
Eric

  • 3 users sharing itunes on 1 imac. How does everyone's library listing refresh when all 3 users are loading music from their own screens?

    3 users sharing itunes in shared folder on one imac computer. What can we do to "refresh" our individual library listing to list music loaded by other 2 users? We listen to books in the car via ipods. How can books I have loaded show up on other 2 library listings and vice-versa? Had a couple of instances where 2 of us loaded the same book because we didn't know the other had already loaded it!!!

    It sounds like you are using individual libraries (each user has library files in their iTunes folder) but shared media.  iTunes doesn't have an active way of scanning a shared media folder for new additions.  You will just have to tell each other that something has been added to each person can add the media information to their libraries.  The only other ways I know of are to using a single user library (many disadvantages to that too, especially with 3 of you), or to use Home Sharing which also has disadvantages.

  • PC Users are unable to check Outlook while my (mac) Mail is open

    Ever since I upgraded to 10.4, whenever I have my Mail application open, the PC users are unable to check their IMAP mail through Outlook. The PC Users and myself are all using different accounts, but are checking the same server.
    At first, this seemed like it was a coincidence... but then I shut my powerbook and they could check their again. I have to use a web mail client to check my email when I am on the network at work.
    Any ideas to resolve this issue? Mail is set to check every 5 minutes.

    AA8 and AA9 allow Reader Rights so the user can save the form. This is restricted by the license to 500 uses. In the long run, the only advantage of the Reader Rights is for your users, not for you. You can always import the data into the form and have the same result as they had in the form. It is not necessary to transmit the full form to you, only the data. If you were developing a web form that would likely exceed the 500 uses, you would have to negotiate a price with Adobe for Reader Rights (thousands of $$ should be expected).
    If saving is important in a company environment, not online, then you may want to read the EULA carefully as to the exceptions. You will still have to have at least AA8.
    I guess the printing problem was answered.

  • Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS: RDS Users are unable to delete files from their desktop

    Hello,
    We are working with Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS. We also implemented User Profile Disks. This is all working fine without problems. The only issue I have is that normal users are unable to delete files from their desktop. They are getting a message:
    you'll need administrator permission to delete this file, with the prompt for administrator access.
    They can edit, copy, rename, cut and paste files. But they cannot delete a file from their desktop.
    I checked the security permissions of the files on the desktop (for example a normal self-created PDF file) and the users are owner and have "Full Control" over the files.
    I checked the file permissions and took a look under "Advanced", selecting the specific domain user and checked the "Advanced Permissions" and the user has the "Delete" option checked. So he should be able to delete the
    file.
    I am guessing this is UPD related issue, or something in GPO. But I already unlinked the GPO objects, that I felt could be the source of this problem, but without results.
    Could someone give me a hint on where to look? It's kinda annoying to users, that they can't delete their own files.

    Hello Bria,
    What you should check first, is the NTFS permissions on the User Profile Disk to begin with. See if the user has full control over the items that are in the UPD.
    Also check the GPO's that are enabled for the user and computer account. You can check that by running: gpresult /h <path>\gpresult.html
    There are two GPO settings that could prevent the user from deleting his/her own items: 
    User
    Configuration\\Policies\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Windows Explorer\
    Hide these specified drives in My Computer
    Prevent access to specified drives in My
    Computer
    There might be other GPO settings, that block deleting items on the UPD, but can't think of any out of my head.
    I can only think NTFS and GPO settings that might prevent the user from deleting items. In my case it was a GPO setting, that I didn't suspect.

  • Edit User Profile How do I enalble user lo loggin to their own profile page and edit it?

    Hi
    I am having some problems....... any help would be nice
    I am using DWCS3 and ADDT toolbox extension wamp and phpmyadmin
    I am trying to create a site for people to be able to post a profile with a picture and info and display it in a dynamic table.
    I can create the form, a database and display the data on another page in a dynamic table all ok..... kind of.
    I can create a user registration system with ADDT.
    I can redirect them after registration to a post profile page, which has a form to upload details. I can then display those details on a user info page.
    I would like to allow logged in users to be able to click on a link to their own profile page , which would show the same form that was filled out in the post profile page, but would be already populated with their previously entered information. I would like users to be able to edit the content of the form and update the information in the database and automatically delete delete any previously entered information ( only in the fields that have been edited)
    How do I go about doing this?.... step by step?
    I want to allow logged in user to view their own profile not every bodies.... how do I do that?
    I have read on another post that to do something similar to this I should filter my database information using a session varialble MM_username that I think is created automatically after user logs in .... but I don;t know how to do this.... I really don;t understand is this the way I link my user to a page that only displays their info ? or is there another way?
    I would also like to allow only people who have posted a profile to be able to edit profile ...... do I do that by
    1. new user registers and is redirected to login page
    2. user logs in and is redirected to an index page that has a post profile button and a edit profile button but only the POST button is active ( and links to a form to post info ) and the edit profile button is linked to a " You must post a profile first" page ( with a link back)
    3 so user posts profile and is directed to an index page which has an edit profile button which is now linked to an edit profile page
    Does that sound correct?
    Any suggestions in getting all this to work would be much appreciated

    Hi Yomi,
    I have created the users page which submits to a members page and tell the user to edit biodata, profession, and hobbies. but on clicking I am really confused on how the id will be transfered from the members page to update biodata and the user updates the form which will show past records. this should also apply to the profession and hobbies
    If I understand this right, you might want to consider providing a complete "userdata" section which comes with a Dynamic List and a Dynamic Form to have users add & update their data plus (via the Dynamic List) track all past records
    Lastly is it possible I create recordset at will and the id will be passed thru since kt-login-id behaves sololy
    I really can´t recommend this "pass user_id as URL variable" approach in this case, as URL variables are displayed in the browser´s address bar -- and this is absolutely insecure, because anyone could simply change the displayed "user_id" value, reload the form and hence edit data which belongs to a different user.
    The only secure method is indeed to use ADDT´s session variable kt_login_id
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: var_export()
    Not sure, but maybe some "includes" files haven´t been generated

  • If you log out of your apple ID on your iPad and let someone else use it and they use facetime.  How come it shows my facetime history and not theirs?   I do not want them to have access to my history.  How can I prevent that and they can see their own?

    If you log out of your apple ID on your iPAD mini and let someone else use it and they use facetime.  How come it shows my facetime history and not theirs?   I do not want them to have access to my history.  How can I prevent that and they can see their own?  Or is the history associated with the iPAD mini itself and not the actual icloud user account?

    You are logging out from
    Settings -> FaceTime, right?
    My guess would be though, that the FaceTime history is stored locally on the device, so anyone using it will see the entire device history (I cannot imagine that FaceTime uploads the history to an Apple server anywhere - I'm sure it is just logged locally on the device - based on my iPhone and iPad show completely different histories, for example).

  • By open sharing with a group, do they see their own hard drive when uploading?

    I want to make sure if someone in my group and I are online at the same time and that person, who has full access, wants to upload a document, they will see their own hard drive directory and not mine.  Probably a stupid question, but I don't want anyone into my hard drive!  The other people in the group have full access to the URL and full editing, uploading,downloading rights.  Thanks.  Is there someone there who could answer this question  right away?  Thanks very much.  I love the product!!

    Thank you.  May I ask if this would work?  (1) I set up my account, give people who work on the same documents my URL (2) They can come to the site at any time and view the documents.  (3) Then what I want is to have a master account where they can come to the URL at any time and they have editing, uploading, etc., privileges.  In a perfect world, I would like to have a master file of documents that a large group of people have access to not only view, but to edit, upload, download, etc., at any time they want.  They would not receive an invitation from me for each individual document.  That might mean many people on the site working on different documents at the same time.  From what I've read, and from what I understand from your reply, these are personal directories, and I think I may be dreaming up a process that doesn't exist!  Do you think this is the case?  And again, thank you very much for taking the time to reply.

  • Few users are unable to sign in after we added 2 more front end servers in existing pool?

    Hello, 
    We have recently extended the Lync 2010 Enterprise pool with 2 Front end servers.  Now we have totally 6 Front end servers. 
    After this change some users are unable to login. Error message: "Cannot loggin as server is temporarily unavailable"
    Captured, client logs and received the following:
    ms-diagnostics: 4004;reason="Credentials provided are not authorized to act as specified from URI";
    We have the following security settings on the newly added front end servers:
    Network security: Minimumsecurity for NTLM SSP Based clients - set to - Require 128-bit encryption 
    In other existing front end servers, it has been set to - No minimum. 
    Questions:
    1. Is that the issue for signin failure?
    2. Do we need to change this option to - No minimum in new servers and reboot it?
    Please advise. MUCH THANKS. 

    Hello 
    Those clients running in Windows 7 OS. And the error is different:
    "Cannot loggin as server is temporarily unavailable"
    Thanks

  • Users are unable to login (HD is located on an AFP or SMB server message)

    I've searched on here, but nothing I've tried helps.
    This is only happening on certain machines in a building. They have all been re-imaged multiple times. Other machines in other buildings running the exact same setup work fine. It's a 10.4.7 client trying to login to a 10.3.9 server. They get the AFP or SMB error message. They can go to another machine in the building, and login, so it's not their account.
    The only thing that I've found will temporarily fix the problem is restarting the server. Right after it comes back up, they can login fine.
    I've triple checked their account settings, created brand new user accounts, we've re-imaged the machines, changed computer names (worked for half a day), trashed the DCHPleases file on the server, ran all updates on both clients and server.
    Help me!!!
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    This error msg means that the users area is stored on an AFP volume, ie the server which needs to be mounted onto the client mac before the user logins.
    What happens is the server boots up, and has share points, /Users for users area. the client then boots up and automounts this volume as /Network/Servers/servername/Users or close to that.
    Then a user logs into the login window, the server authenitcates the user and tries to grant them access to the Users volume, if this volume has been unmounted then they user cant get access to thier home folder and thus cant login
    This could be caused by network issues, switches, hubs, etc and the client has been cut off from the server, a reboot of the client mac should fix the issue. Then check your switches or hubs

  • Everyone Except External users are unable to access the subsites

    We have a SharePoint online site, in which we have given read permissions to
    Everyone Except External Users in the parent site. Now, the users are able to access the parent site. But for sub sites, we have stopped inheriting permissions from the parent site and have given read permissions to Everyone Except External Users in
    sub sites as well. But users are unable to access the sub sites. They are getting access denied message.
    Can any one help me to resolve the problem?
    Thanks in advance!

  • When spanning new tabs (firefox) my users are asked to re-authenticate with pages already signed into. Can you tell me how to fix this issue for firefox users?

    With some research I found regedit setting called “TabProcGrowth” that allows tabs to span without re-authenticating with certain browsers. Can you tell me how to fix this issue for my Mozilla Firefox users? Our current version of Mozilla Firefox is: 24.5.0 (x86 en-US). This was first noticed with a product called Confluence that we use in our Tech Support area. Users are having to reenter their password every time they click on a new link in confluence. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Hi Bernie:
    As long as you are accessing your internal server on http:// or https:// then I would expect the normal rules to apply. To see whether some external requests are being blocked, you might try using Firefox's Web Console, Network tab.
    You can open the console in the lower part of a tab using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+k
    * "3-bar" menu button > Developer > Web Console
    * (menu bar) Tools menu > Web Developer > Web Console
    Click "Network" on the top bar of the Web Console.
    Then use the address bar or a bookmark to launch Confluence in the same tab. Each request made by Firefox should be displayed along with the result. You can click a row for more details.
    When I look up "TabProcGrowth" it seems related to the Protected Mode feature of IE8 and newer, which is not (yet) applicable to Firefox. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/askie/archive/2009/03/09/opening-a-new-tab-may-launch-a-new-process-with-internet-explorer-8-0.aspx
    However, if Confluence is heavily reliant on plugins such as Flash or Java, that could be a factor because plugins are run out-of-process in Firefox. In that case I suggest checking with Confluence for suggestions.

    I do not see any hardware demage or anything like that, can anyone suggest what could be the problem?
    Please help

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    Everything that cames in the box is included in the 1year warranty, unfortunately you're just outside of that warranty.  Regardless, if the above troubleshooting does not resolve, take the device to Apple and they can determine if the issue is the device, the charger(s) or something else.
