X60 Tablet users: Windows 8 upgrade experiences?

I have an X60 Tablet (6363-5BU) with Windows XP Tablet Edition SP3. 2GB of RAM and 250 GB HDD. I'm thinking about upgrading to Windows 8. There are plenty of anecdotes about Win 7 upgrades but not many Win 8 upgrades. It would be nice to find out what issues, pitfalls and workarounds have been discovered and gathering them all here on this thread...
T60 Tablet; T60 Widescreen; T60; T40; 701C; 3 x Apple Newton MP2100; 2 x HP 200LX

Works great
It all worked perfectly right after install.
Im trying to get the buttons for quick screen change to work as they are unrespsonsive but to be honest I never used them much before. So they're not quiet the priority.
It is considerable faste rthan windows 7, I'm sure you will love it.

Do not force tablet users to use the Desktop app before it is ready

Windows 10 is set to launch on July 29. Microsoft is discontinuing Modern Skype on July 7 thus creating the following inconveniences for Windows 8.1 tablet users connected with using the Desktop app: The Desktop app is blurry due to the DPI issuesThe app slides off the screen if the app is maximized and the user scrolls to the end of any listUsers need to use the desktop virtual keyboard which is subpar in numerous aspectsUsers who primarily use the Modern part of Windows 8.1 are forced to use the desktop environmentThere is no way to see any Skype notifications without going to the Desktop which, again, the tablet users don't do very often or don't do at all Every single one of the abovementioned issues isn't minor by any means. We'd understand your decision to make users move to a better app if it was indeed a better app. Please finish the proper Windows 10 integration first (or, at the very least, wait till Windows 10 is released) and then we, the tablet users, would gladly move to a truly better experience.

Thanks for listening. A) Lenovo ThinkPad 8 tablet - Windows 8.1 x64, 8" 1920x1200 screen mostly in portrait mode with 150% zoom for desktop, equipped with LTE mobile connection (that's why Skype connected standby mode support is essential). B) All issues with the desktop version on tablet have been summarized in the first post. I will repeat them again: true optimization for touch devices - I mostly use the chat window, so no menu nor taskbar visible on main (chat) window.fix basic bugs like erratic scrolling, the sliding off main window when scrolling and missing High DPI awareness supportconnected standby support, start screen and live tile notificationssmooth integration of onscreen keyboard, again Windows Store applications can do that onlyNo desktop application on Windows 8.1 can offer the same level of experience on tablets as the existing Modern Skype (Windows Store) one does. That's why the Windows Store applications have been introduced after all. So the easiest solution for both parties is to not kill the Modern Skype app as it continues to live on Windows RT devices. As for Windows 10 upgrade and getting a new Skype universal app (if any, in the future), it does not seem to be well optimized for tablets yet so it is better to stay with very good Windows 8.1 for a while.

My App-V Server 5.0.1224.0 Service Pack 1 to SP3 upgrade experience

I wanted to share my upgrade experience from App-V Server 5.1.1224.0 Service Pack 1 to SP3, in case it might be of help to anyone out there. I've been hearing that some of you have resorted to uninstalling your SP1 and installing SP3 cleanly as a fall-back,
but my OCD wouldn't allow me to do that...heh
Resources used:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn858700.aspx
http://www.applepie.se/app-v-5-0-sp3 (Thanks Nicke Kallen!)
My environment:
Remote SQL server (Management DB)
Remote SQL server (Reporting DB, SSRS, and ReportingService)
IIS server (Management service)
Publishing Servers x2 (Publishing service)
As Nicke stated in his post, SQL admins in an enterprise environment would laugh at you if you if you tried to hand them an .exe to run to perform the SQL portion of this upgrade.   The block of code that he provides in his post (link provided
above) was all that was needed to perform the SQL database portion.
Steps taken to upgrade:
Update Database
Install .NET Framework 4.5.1 on the Management server and Publishing Servers
Install the SP3 update on the Management server
Install the SP3 update on the Publishing server
After restarting IIS, everything seemed to be fine. I was able to Publish and Unpublish packages that were already in the system, but when I attempted to add a new package I received an error stating that the computer account did not have access
to the package store. This made no sense to me, as this permission had already been set in the past, so I double checked and it was still in place. This lead me back to the first link I provided above, under the section titled "Check registry
keys before installing App-V 5.0 SP3 Server." Honestly, I did read this first, but I think I was like "there's no way they didn't include this into the installation bits'" and glazed over it.
The first section titled ManagementDatabase key makes no sense to me, since I'm using a remote SQL server that doesn't have any App-V installation bits on it at all, and in an enterprise SQL permissions are not controlled
in this manner.
The second section titled ManagementService key:
The critical parts of this section are as follows:
MANAGEMENT_ADMINACCOUNT key: Once I entered this and restarted IIS I was able to add new packages to App-V. For this I used the service account that is bound to IIS.
MANAGEMENT_DB_SQL_INSTANCE key: Left blank in my case, as the default instance is valid.
MANAGEMENT_DB_SQL_SERVER_NAME key: I input the name of the remote SQL server.
The third section titled ReportingDatabase key, again, makes no sense to be since this database was pre-created by SQL admins, therefore this key does not exist on the SQL server.
The fourth section titled ReportingService key:
Since the reporting services are on the same box as the SQL server in my environment, I was able to leave these values blank, but in normal environments where these roles are separated you will want to populate these with the appropriate values.

Hi,
the challenging point could be the database. I don't know if 4.5 SP2 would introduce any modification to the database (and if so... how 'old' SP1 servers would deal with that), but in theory it could happen that you upgrade server 1 (that you removed from ACE
load balancing before), upgrade it and thus silently apply a change to the database.
If the still unpatched server2 connects to that DB there could be issues.
As in Shared Cache mode a connection to the App-V servers is essential you should test that process in a test lab. Create a backup of your database, and use that along with two App-V servers to practice the migration in the lab.
If you can't do that, find a maintenance window that is long enough run and roll back.

[SOLVED] ACPI handler.sh no longer working (Thinkpad X60 Tablet)

Hello there,
I recently did a few updates on my system to reduce power usage and get hdaps working. For some reason one of these changes must have broken ACPID in some way so that what I wrote in handler.sh no longer has any effect when I e.g. press the configured buttons to lock my screen or shut down, but I have no clue which.
I'm not really familiar with where ACPI and ACPID keeps all their logs either, and which parts in there might mean something for me. I don't even know how I can check if ACPI is running properly and just ACPID isn't, for instance (both are running thought, confirmed with ps -A).
Here's what I can remember of what I did:
-full system update
-install cpufreq to redcude power usage with acpi_cpufreq
-install HDAPS with Thinkpad driver, as described on the Wiki
-tweak my laptop-mode settings, e.g. disable VGA output when in laptop mode
-enable AHCI for my hard drive in kernel image and BIOS
Would be great if you could help me troubleshoot this somehow, as I really don't have a clue on how to fix this. Here's some output that might be helpful for starters:

Can I install WSUS alongside Windows Essentials Experience Role without killing IIS & Remote web access?

Can I install WSUS alongside Windows Essentials Experience Role without killing IIS & Remote web access?
I have recently installed Windows Server 2012 Essentials R2, but I want to use WSUS on the same server. Is this possible, if so how? Last time I tried this I lost my Remote Web Access.
I did post this in the Windows server 2012 essentials thread but didn't get any replies so thought I'd try posting it here to see if I got any hits here?
Is there a way to get WSUS to install to different web ports i.e. 880 & 8443? Or can I get it to install in a new site in IIS? Its just I know that the Essentials Experience role sets up RWA in IIS and installing the WSUS on top just overwrites
the RWA site & settings? I assume this is also why Remote Desktop Services does the same?
Thanks
JK MCP

Last time I tried this I lost my Remote Web Access.
Remote Web Access uses the Default Web Site. If you install WSUS to the Default Web Site, it will break things. Install WSUS to the alternate "WSUS Administration" site on port 8530.
Is there a way to get WSUS to install to different web ports i.e. 880 & 8443?
No.
Or can I get it to install in a new site in IIS?
Just select the option during the installer to do that.

Why ('ontouchstart' in window) is false on a touch tablet with Windows 8

I use Java Script to determine if my Web-Site is running on Tablet touch device
The device is Assus tablet with windows 8

Are you assuming that the return value is false because it is not true? According to [https://github.com/phoboslab/Ejecta/pull/173 this], null is sometimes returned instead of true. If false is actually returned, then I would think it is a fault with the tablet's browser. Either that or in the browser's settings there are options to pretend the device is something else (for testing purposes); there is no reason why these should be selected by default though.
If that's no help then please give us further details (such as the browser you are using).

Flash won't run, says its not loaded, when its embedded on samsung tablet and Windows 8.

On samsung tablet 500T windows 8 flash is embedded. It says when I try to run flash that it is not loaded. I followed all of the help and made sure all of the settings are correct. It still will not run. The only error is that it is NOT LOADED to download it from adobe.

Get Users windows Domain name

Hi,
Is it possible to retrieve users windows Domain directly using Java or there is any other alternative to retrieve this.
Regards,
Manda

And rightfully so. What do you suppose a platform-independent language like Java should report as the "Windows Domain" when the app is run on Linux or Mac, for example?
You should not "need" to know the user's "Windows Domain". If you think you need to know this, you are highly likely developing something backwards, or are using the wrong tool for the job.I'm sorry, but this is a dumb answer to a real question. Real world applications almost ALWAYS need access to system level functionality. When it comes to security domain related applications or services, any application or service that doesn't need this information is not worth having. We write in Java for portability, but when we need to access system-level information, we use JNI calls to do so. Java bigots tend to think the only operating system is the JVM, but real world engineers know that the JVM is only a means to an end -- portability and clean code.
This problem can be solved by using the JAAS com.sun.security.auth.module.NTSystem and com.sun.security.auth.module.UnixSystem classes. It should be noted that Sun recommends against using these classes directly, but in the same act, they don't expose the functionality they provide though the public JAAS interfaces either (which leads one to wonder why they even exist, because they're not used in lower-level JAAS code either, as far as I can tell).
I can only guess that Sun provided them in JAAS because people have screamed for them, and JAAS seemed like the most appropriate place to provide them. At the same time, Sun (unrealistically) doesn't like to believe that anything beyond the JVM is needed in an application or service, so they don't provide any "use" documentation for them either in the class javadoc.
Some caveats regarding these classes: Each of these classes is only available on the system for which they are intended by default. That is, you won't find a jaas_nt.dll on any Unix system JVM, and you won't find a jaas_unix.so native library on NT. Thus, to write portable code (at least to Windows and various Unix variants), you need to use reflection to access them. Fortunately, the methods of these classes are trivial, returning strings or longs.
Good luck!

Security Update 2008-008 No user window.

I do apologise if this is the incorrect discussion group, but I couldn’t find a email address to report this so I thought I would post it and it may eventually get to the right people.
I’ve just updated (using Software Update) the latest Security Update 2008-008. The Mac was running perfectly beforehand (all updates and security updates to date).
When using the Mac I regularly switch between user accounts, however I have found that after the update if I log out of a user account (with no admin privileges) the main user accounts window does not appear. (I am left with the desktop picture of the account I have tried to log out of and no menu bar.)
The only solution I have found to this problem (in each instance after the initial one, I have waited for 5 minutes to give the system a chance) is to hold down the power key until it switches off the Mac. The Mac then starts up fine and displays the user window, from there I can choose which account I want to use.
As I switch between these accounts throughout the day, shutting down the Mac, between switches, will seriously impede getting anything done.
Nevertheless, the above problem does not manifest itself when I have logged out of the admin account, this appears to be working as it should. The list of user accounts opens and I can choose an account as normal. Additionally, the problem does not appear if a user account is already open and I am logging onto another account from the fast user switching menu.
I realise the short term solution is to have an account open all the time, but this is not ideal, as the open account I am sure, will be using resources unnecessarily.
If however, someone has a more substantial solution then I would be most grateful for the suggestion.

Accounts are numbered 501, 502, etc. as the computer sees them, so that's the origin of the multiple trash folders. Each account has its own trash.
As you can read in an earlier post and through the links, safe mode does move some things to the trash so it does act as a temporary purge of items.
I just tried reading the file about what the most recent security update changes. I don't really understand most of it but I didn't see anything that specifically said log out modification to me. It is pretty hard trying to resolve logout issues and you seem to have this strange combination of accounts that work and don't work.
One thing you haven't done but could try is booting from your installer disc and run Disk Utility's repair drive (not permissions but drive). Actually, running Applejack does a reduced version of the same thing but it's worth a try if only to see what it reports about drive condition.
Dock. I am not sure what the dock would have to do with this. You could try removing the com.apple.dock.plist file from your home directory > Library > Preferences folder. Just move it to someplace else temporarily and see if that clears up anything on a logout.
It appears that this Secuirty update 2008-008 (10.4.11) is causing an ever increasing circle of problems as more posts are appearing in various places on the Internet.
This happens after any kind of update, but especially an update which changes components of the operating system. It is really a matter of matter of perception. It looks like there's a lot of problems because the hundred people who do have problems post here to ask about the problem. What you don't see are the thousands (millions?) of people who do not post because they did not have a problem.
There's been recent discussions as to what steps are truly necessary in doing a minimal problem update.
I think #1 to which all agree is to make sure you have a backup of your computer in case you do need to back out of it again.
Some like to boot from their installer discs or an external backup and verify (and if necessary repair) their internal drives as well as drive permissions. This is done with Disk Utility.
You can also go to the step of booting into safe mode to do the install.
I like to download the update onto my computer and install it from there rather than let Software Update do it. I know a few people who had problems with doing the update via software updater found a manual install to work.
Repair permissions again afterward.
It also helps to only install one update at a time and to run the computer for a while to make sure it is behaving well.
Almost all of the above steps (except backup) have been questioned as to necessity because probably many people have done successful updates without doing them. I say they can't hurt, they can very likely do good (especially if your computer isn't regularly maintained), so why not do them to be safe.
I cannot bear the idea, but having spent the last 20 or so hours trying to solve this problem, I am left with reinstalling the entire system from scratch. I cannot believe that this is my only alternative. And for the moment at least it will remain on the shelf.
Well, I am not a computer expert (just another Mac user with a few years on the clock) and I am running out of ideas. Maybe somebody else will happen by who can figure out what is going on. Can you think of anything that is different about the problem accounts that makes them different from the others? Any special software installed?
Incidentally, how much free space do you have on your hard drive? Sometimes stragne issues can arise if drives are getting over full.

Can't access old ver. 9, 11 & 13 clips after Windows upgrade

In Sept. 2014 I downloaded PE 13 from B&H, worked fine and was able to access old PE9 & PE11 clips. In Dec. 2014 had problems with Wind. 7 Home Ed. and had to upgrade to 8.1 (decided on Pro). Installed 8.1 Pro end of Dec. 2014 and bought PE 13 DVD from B&H to reinstall after I backed up my hard drive. Problem after install of 8/1 Pro and installing PE13 from DVD I can't access and restore old clips from 9, 11 & 13. Tried everything I can think of....any suggestions PLEASE!

Very good, I completely understand. Please understand "I am not a computer geek!"
With the old computer system, you have Premiere Elements 9, 11, and 13 projects. And, you import media into each and see thumbnails for each of your imports in the project media area of the program (in version 11 and 13, called Project Assets). CORRECT! Please as we go forward I have the PE 13 that was downloaded from B&H and worked perfectly with my previous assets in PE 9 & 11.
When you go to open a project in one of these programs and go to the project media area, do the source media thumbnails still show as before with image in the thumbnail? Or does the thumbnail have a display of circular arrows? If the present as before, can you drag the file from the project media area to the Timeline? If you cannot, it that the problem? NO! (First info is when I set up my new PE 13 after copying all data to a 1T desk drive and loaded Windows 8.1 Pro to replace my Windows 7 Home Edition, I set up the PE 13 and used 64 bit as suggested.) NOW...When I locate my previous Project Assets on the 1T drive they show as "red blocks" with a play arrow in them where previously were thumbnails, but I can't retrieve them. As such there is nothing to add to the timeline. Last night I added to the NEW PE 13 a 22 min program I'm working on. I have all those assets, thumbnails and everything is working as wonderfully as it did in 9, 11 and downloaded 13.
Now in response to a previous question you asked:
1. When you open Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace, go to Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime, do you see a list of presets when you explore
the Presets" field there? NO.... I can get to /Computer but there is no QuickTime there! I did download QuickTime yesterday after your suggestion.
2. You wrote
Restarted PE13 and received the message "The selected file cannot be played becuse your system does not have the required compresser/decompresser (codec) installed.
Where are you getting the selected file---- from Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace Project Assets to where it was imported originally from a hard drive save location?
Or other? What is the specific full name of one of these files that is giving the error message?
With everything I've been trying, I'll have to recreate this series of events to answer directly.
When you did the switch from Windows 7 Home to Windows 8.1, did you go 64 bit to 64 bit or 32 bit to 64 bit in operating system? Help me with a way to determine what the bit was on 9 & 11!
Were two separate computers involved or did you manage to change the operating all on one computer? All on one Computer
The major focus for me right now is to make sure I know what file triggers the ".....not have the required compressoer/decompressor (codec)"? And to know that
you are in the Premiere Elements 13 Editor and not the Organizer 13 workspace. Help me understand!!!! I know the difference between "Add Media", "Project Assets", "Organizer", "Editor" and "Workspace". But "Project Assets" and "Workspace" are part of "Editor", so I don't understand your question.

I don't know. What version of Acrobat do you have, what OS are you now running, and what does the message say?

Triggering switch user window after delay

Is there a way to automatically bring up the switch user window after a delay (like a screen saver)? One thing I actually like about XP is how it goes to the login screen automatically after the screen saver (but doesn't actually log out the user). I know if I put a password on my Mac screen saver I can force people to open the switch user window manually, but this seems like an unnecessary step.

Does Ciao do what you want?
