Welcome message for new-registred users

Hi!
I'm not sure if this is already been suggested or if it's implemented already, but here I go:
When a new user register at the forum or NI, I would presume that the user is new to LabVIEW. How about a welcome message for the new user? This could be a private message and contain useful information. Like links to the biggest and mostly used community groups, links to different basic tutorials, links to popular boards etc.
I see that there are many new users that ask questions which would be answered by doing the basic tutorials. We provide them some links and they appreciate it alot. When I registred a year ago, for me, the NI site and forum where quite unfamiliar and I spent alot of time, just to get to known where to look for stuff. I didn't discover the basic tutorials until I posted a "newbie" question and got some links in reply. The tutorials helped me alot!
The tutorials are not so hard to find, but I think many people, like myself, don't know they exists when they register to the forum.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, since my memory is like "10 second Tom" in the movie "Fifty first dates" with Adam Sandler

Hi Laura,
I found the 3 and 6 hour courses very useful. Also the learning LV 101 found here.
I believe I just searched the forums for answers and posted questions if I could not find anything. Many of my questions would not have been nessesary if I had taken the courses first. 
For providing the user with the links I can think of two ways:
1. Since there can be users for other products thatn LabVIEW, maybe the links should be general for everyone.
2. When a user registers, he/she should be able to choose products/interests and the private message could be built based on that. The register page should contain checkboxes and the user just select what he/she wants.

  • Welcome to the new Oracle User Group Community

    Welcome to the new Oracle User Group Community. Whether you landed here via the redirect from the previous community site - IOUC.org - or navigated here directly, welcome. This new platform brings new community features to enhance the way you connect with user group peers and with Oracle, as well as make it easier for you to find information through a more intuitive interface.

    Hi Kashif,
    Glad you like the new Community. Communication among user group leaders works a little differently on this site than on the previous site. Rather than having communication focus around e-mail distribution lists, communication now is focused within the site itself. The intent is that this will provide users the one place to come for information, rather than having to sort through lots of e-mail threads. That doesn't mean that e-mail is completely out of the picture though. Users can opt-in to receive e-mail notifications when an individual piece of content is changed, or when content is posted to a space. Look for the "Receive email notifications" link under "Actions" to start receiving notices. To stop receiving notices, go back to the same content/space and click "Stop email notifications".
    Your Relationship Manager will be talking with you and the other leaders in your region over the next few days and weeks regarding how you and your group of leaders want to communicate.

  • Printing help for new MAC user

    I am a new MAC user trying convince myself this is better than a PC. I have been trying to 3 hours to figure out how to print in color with a document I've created in Pages. I am connected to a HP Photosmart wireless printer. Can someone help me?

    Hi jersey,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Pages '09 forum.
    Is this strictly a Pages/HP Photosmart issue, or do other applications share this inability to print in colour to this printer?
    About the only advice I can offer is to:
    1.
    Check the HP site for any updated drivers for your printer. Download and install if any are found.
    2.
    Check the printer's settings in the Print dialogue. Your printer may offer the choice, here or in it's utility application, to print using only the black toner cartridge.
    3.
    Try opening Pages from a different user account, and printing a new document from there. Success would indicate the issue lies in your user account, probably in a corrupted Pages preference (.plist) file.Go back to your usual account, locate the file and drag it to the trash. Try printing again from your usual account.
    If these don't help, I'd suggest reposting your question in the Printing, Faxing and Scanning forum in the Mac OS X v10.6 (Snow Leopard) section of Discussions.

    Barry

  • Idea of sending a message for all connected users.

    Dears,,,
    I'm trying to develop through oracle forms an idea of sending a pop-up message to all connected users.
    Example, I need to inform users to quit in 5 minutes due to a restart to the application server.
    I thought about a timer trigger that will check every 5 seconds or 10 seconds a value somewhere in a table. But I don't want to use the timer triggers associated in oracle forms.
    Is there any idea ?
    Please let me know.
    Joe

    Use Iframe tag.
    For this:
    Add an “IFRAME” in the base html file used (for example basejpi.htm file)
    <NOEMBED>
    </COMMENT>
    </NOEMBED></EMBED>
    </OBJECT>
    <!-- Forms applet definition (end) -->
    %HTMLafterForm%
    <IFRAME SRC="/forms/java/iframe.html">
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
    Then create an html file named "iframe.html" with the following content :
    <HTML>
    <HEAD>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10">
    </HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <H1>Please disconnect, The system will go Down !!!!</H1>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
    Every time you would like to send a message, just add it in the iframe.html file ans users will see it.
    The iframe size can be customized.

  • Blocking messages for over quota users from the frontend

    Dear All,
    Is there a way to bounce back messages from the frontend for users who are currently over quota instead of accepting the message, then routing it to the storage mailhost and then bouncing it from there? We have multiple storage mail hosts and multilpe inbound & outbound servers. All servers are running iMS 5.2 with latest patches. Due to the fact that most of the received messages are spam sent using fake addresses, bounce back messages queue up on the outboud mail servers until they expire.

    Hi,
    after reconstruct -q
    user/mmmm: fixed quota root usageThis can occur overtime. It is usually not a big issue. Does user 'mmmm' reflect one of the 'problem' users? If you run recontruct -q again, do you still get these messages?
    test user was able to receive mail again
    (mailuserstatus=active) until overquoted again. Than
    same thing happen (empty mailboxes overquoted users)Could you please provide the output for the test user for the commands I mentioned earlier (ldapsearch/imquotacheck).
    Is it a good idea to cron recontruct -q?This shouldn't be necessary. If your quota database keeps getting 'out-of-sync' then this would need to be investigated.
    During reconstruct -q we also got a number of these:
    [12/Dec/2006:02:47:19 +0100] store01
    reconstruct[14600]: General Error:
    set_overquotastatus: cannot get ldap attributes for
    user: xxxxxxDid the user in this example exist in the directory or are they 'orphan' accounts?
    Can you see an LDAP search (access logs) which correlates to this date stamp which returned an error?
    Regards,
    Shane.

  • G4 won't boot up for new Mac user

    Hi guys. Brand new to Apple computers as I got a "defective" G4 from my neighbor. He was going to throw it away but I told him I would try to fix it first.
    When I power it up, it makes a musical "greeting" power up sound and the monitor goes from dark black (as in "off") to a lighter gray, and then a folder appears in the middle of the screen alternating between a face and a question mark.
    Does anyone know what is wrong with this computer so that I can repair it for future use? I am guessing a hard drive malfunction, but do not know for sure. And is it worth fixing? FYI - I do not have any software for this system.
    Thanks for any help you can provide!
    -Mark

    A 160g hard drive would run you about $70, while OS X would run about $120.
    It would be great to borrow a copy of the os installation disk and boot from it to see if the computer has further problems. Do you know any other mac users? It would also allow you to see how much ram is in the machine (OS X likes ram) and that may be a further expense if you need more.
    What are you going to use the machine for? That's the main question as to how much you should spend to fix the machine up. I don't know if it would be fast enough for you as an everyday computer, but internet use, word processing, ITunes, IPhoto would all work just fine. You won't be doing any gaming or heavy duty video processing.
    I'd talk to them at the Apple Store, explain the situation, maybe they might be able to help given the situation. They've got a chance here to nab a new mac user, I'd think that may help your case.

  • Snow Leopard or Lion for new Mac User?

    Hi everyone: I purchased my first Mac (a MacBook Pro) about a month back and shortly thereafter upgraded to Lion for free through the apps store.  Since then, using/navigating the new Mac has been somewhat challenging for me and I'm not yet comfortable with using it for all of my computing needs.  (I have an old Toshiba that is still my go-to computer--for the moment.)  I suspect that part of my challenges stem from being a new Mac user (irrespective of the particular OS) after years of using PCs, but I do wonder if they may also relate to OS Lion, which seems to have complicated the user experience.  I was hoping that using a Mac would be more intuitive and simple than it seems to have been thus far.
    With that in mind, might there be some utility in me reinstalling Snow Leopard (and if so how?) in order to become more used to the new Mac experience before permanently switching to Lion?  If I do, would I be able to, down the road, resintall Lion for free?
    I recognize that this suggestion would involve some learning curve redundancy (learning the Mac on Snow Leopard and eventually re-learning it with Lion).   However, I have a sense that reverting back to Snow Leopard might ease my transition into the new Mac experience.   Either way, I'm looking forward to eventually tossing out that Toshiba!
    Thanks for any/all thoughts.  Best, DC

    If you want to downgrade to Snow Leopard then do the following:
    Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
    1.  Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
    If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.
    However, there isn't that much difference between Snow Leopard and Lion that using Snow Leopard would prove easier to learn. There are lots of tutorials available at the Apple website to help you learn how to use a Mac. You might start with Apple - Support - Mac 101 and Apple - Support - Switch 101. And, for Lion see About MacOS X.

  • Stacks and other simple issues..... for new Mac user

    My first computer was a commodore 64 with DOS commands and I've been a PC user ever since. You guessed it, Friday I went to the Apple store and bought an iMac! I was up and using it in minutes so I am impressed. However there are a million little things I just can't figure out or that take hours, for example at the Apple store the docking bar when you ran your mouse over the icons they jumped up. Well after a few hours I figured out how to make mine do that! (so cool).
    At the store they showed me "stacks" where i put my mouse on something and I could see, pix or documents or e-mail I had somehow saved there, very handy but if my Mac can do that I sure don't see how.
    Here are my two questions:
    1) how do i make stacks work (is it some program i don't have?)
    2) is there a web site or book or something with all the easy stuff (tips and tricks) in it a brand new Mac user should know? (i hate to keep bothering you all with simple questions)
    Thanks, Susa

    Welcome to Mac.
    1) Just drag any folder to the right hand side of the dotted line (the Trash side) of Dock. Then click. Or click and hold on the stack and choose how your stack displays.
    2) take a look at Mac 101 and Switch 101. There's a wealth of info there.

  • How to pop up a system message for a specific user when She/He log on SAP

    Hi Friends,
    As we know SM02 setting will pop up a system message to all users in specific client in a specific period when the user log on SAP system; and we can do the same thing via using function module SM02_ADD_MESSAGE.
    But now we want to pop up a message to a specific user ID when somebody log on SAP via this ID, instead of all user IDs in the client. Please do we have any similar traction / function module / class method to to do this job??
    Thanks in advance.
    Joe

    Below code can be used to send a pop up message to all users who are logged on to the
    system.
    DATA: MESSAGE(128) VALUE 'Test message'.
    DATA: OPCODE TYPE X VALUE 2.
    DATA: BEGIN OF USR_TABL OCCURS 10.
    INCLUDE STRUCTURE UINFO.
    DATA: END OF USR_TABL.
    CALL 'ThUsrInfo' ID 'OPCODE' FIELD OPCODE
    ID 'TAB' FIELD USR_TABL-SYS.
    LOOP AT USR_TABL.
    CALL FUNCTION 'TH_POPUP'
    EXPORTING
    CLIENT = SY-MANDT
    USER = USR_TABL-BNAME
    MESSAGE = MESSAGE
    EXCEPTIONS
    USER_NOT_FOUND = 1.
    ENDLOOP.
    In the above code just pass the desired user ID instead of All user ID's

  • Controlling the default language for new business users

    Hi everyone,
    If this has been answered elsewhere, my apologies for asking again.
    My company is currently in the initial implementation of ByDesign (1405). I just migrated our employees into ByD using the migration tool. This went fine, and also created (inactive) Business Users for each employee.
    One small issue I have, is that for each Business User created, ByD picked a "Default Language" based on the country where the user's organization unit is based (so Dutch for users assigned to an entity in the Netherlands, Danish for users assigned to a unit in Denmark, etc...).
    This despite the fact that the only language we have configured in ByD during scoping is English. In fact, when you edit the default language on the business user record, the drop down only offers English as a choice.
    Since this is our test environment, this is not a big deal, but I would like to prevent this once I migrate user to our production environment.
    So: how do I make sure that the Default Language on each Business User created when creating an Employee is English? (I would rather not have to fix this manually for a large number of users).
    Thanks!
    Eelco

    It applies to selected text. It is part of the text's style.
    So if you want a document to be by default a particular language, make a template in which all the text and all the styles in the styles drawer are set to what you want.
