You cannot change your default location of "Creative Cloud Files" for sync from desktop

So, I'm finding that I am restricted from moving the "Creative Cloud Files" container (for syncing to the cloud from my desktop). It is bound to C:Users/Name and will not move.
This is very saddening and seems like an elementary function that should be included.
I do not want to store things on my small SSD C: drive -- thanks.
Am I missing something here?

Hi Mark,
As per Adobe F.A.Q, I would like to state that :http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html
"Your files remain on your local hard drive. You can also choose to take advantage of the ability to synchronize your local files with your Creative Cloud storage. Even if you choose to sync your files to Creative Cloud, you will always have a local copy of your files."
There are some workarounds, it might work out, you can try it : It is for windows
First, stop the sync and exit the app ( right-click on the Connection icon and click Turn Sync Off, right-click again and choose Exit )
Go to “C:\Users\your user name” folder and locate Creative Cloud Files folder
Move the folder to a different location ( e.g. “D:\Data\Creative Files” ) and make sure that you move complete Creative Cloud Files folder
Run cmd.exe in admin privileges ( type cmd in Start menu, right click on cmd and select Run as administrator )
Type following:
mklink /J “C:\Users\your_user_name\Creative Cloud Folder” “D:\Data\Creative Files”
You should receive message that the junction is created ( refer to this guide if you need more help:Complete Guide to Symbolic Links (symlinks) on Windows or Linux )
Now to test it BEFORE you turn on the Connection app simply copy something to “D:\Data\Creative Files” folder, than go to Creative Cloud Files folder in your users folder and you should see the file you copied
If you are able to see the file, all you have to do is to start the Connection app! Hooray!
This guide should work for Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Is there a way you can change your app locations on iTunes?

It's tedious when trying to drag an app that you really like past 4 'pages' of apps to the 1st page.

HI,
Is there a way you can change your app locations on iTunes?
Yes. Connect your iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Select your iPhone under Devices on the left. Select "Apps" in the menu. You can drag apps to any of the home screens you want, then click: Apply bottom right corner of the iTunes window.

hi, Rajshree
i chose the first option but asked me the serial number but i have not it

Beware, you cannot change your online number

I have never seen such a poorly excuted VIOP system. I have had a online number for four years. I moved and needed a local number. I had 1 month left on the year and extended my subscription. Before the current year was up I needed to change my number. They refuse to do it. They will not refund the extended year I paid for and will not change my number. WTH! It takes 30 seconds to get a new number from Google voice or even Virgin Mobile. This will be be my last year with Skype.

Hi jmoo2,
Once an Apple ID is created for a child, the birthday on record for that Apple ID can not be changed. See this article for reference -
Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids - Apple Support
Specifically -
Use these steps to create an Apple ID and add the child to your family group:
Go to Settings > iCloud > Family, and tap "Create an Apple ID for a child."
Enter your child's birthday and tap Next. The birthday for a child's account can't be changed after the account is created. Be sure to enter the correct date.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

HT3371 What if you cannot bring your computer into an apple store? (For unknown reasons)

My Macbook is currently running on "Service Battery" and with that I know I need to replace it soon. This computer was from my brother. He sent it to me since this is my first year in Highschool and he could get it for free since he works for Apple. When he gave it to me, he said I couldn't bring it into an Apple store. He didn't give me a reason though and Im afraid to go past what he said and bring it in.
Anyone have any advice?

It would help to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.

How can I change the default program to open Pages files in Finder from Pages 5.0 to Pages '09?

I’ve tried. It seems Mavericks can’t tell the difference between the programs or won’t let me.

Open DIsk Utility and in the toolbar select Disk Image. The file selector will open and you'll have to do three things: 1) just as with any file, name it and point the file selector to where you want it to be saved, 2) near the bottom you'll see name - type iWork 2013 and 3) below that select the image size. Click on size, choose custom and type 1500 MB then click on the Create button.
Some time will pass and then you'll see an external disk pop up on your desktop and/or the Finder window sidebar. Drag the three programs into it and eject it like any other external disk. Now delete the programs from your applications window.
Where ever it was you pointed the file selector to you'll see the file you created. Double click on it and the disk image will mount again.

Creative cloud files and lightroom

Is it possible to use the creative cloud Files for two users to upload and use a lightroom catalog?
We'd like to be able to upload files (on creative cloud files) at one location, and have another user view and rate these files at a different location.
Is this possible?

No moving of files is needed.
Just launch the Creative Cloud version of Lightroom. It should find your existing LR 5.5 catalog and make use of it; if it does not happen automatically, in the CC version of LR use File->Open Catalog

Not seeing new Creative Cloud files in Adobe Ideas

I have downloaded the new Adobe Illustrator Draw program as was suggested when I opened up Adobe Ideas. I am having trouble getting my Creative Cloud files to sync in Adobe Ideas. I have created a new folder and placed these new files in that folder, thinking that might help jolt the sync to happen. I have also closed out the Adobe Ideas app and restarted my iPad. I don't have a "sync now" button in Adobe Ideas--didn't there used to be a button like that in Adobe Ideas? (I am also not able to "fetch" any new files in Adobe Illustrator Draw--the "Fetch files" button is grayed out and won't let me click it.) Thank you for any help.

The latest version of Adobe Ideas (2.9.1) does not have automatic synchronization. Transferring files from Ideas to Creative Cloud and vice versa now requires manual steps.
To copy files to the Creative Cloud, go to the organizer view and tap the cloud button in the top right of the screen. This will prompt you to select the files you want to copy. Once you select one or more files, tap the Copy button. This will bring up a file browser that shows your files on Creative Cloud. Tap the Copy button again to confirm where you want to copy the files to.
To download files from Creative Cloud to Ideas, tap the "New From File" button at the bottom of the organizer view. (This button has an image icon with a '+' next to it.) Tap "Creative Cloud" from the popup menu. This will bring up a file browser that shows your files on Creative Cloud. If you tap on a .idea file, the file will be copied to your iPad and bring you into sketch mode with that file.
As for Draw, the "Fetch All Files" is not designed to ever be grayed out. Could you send a screenshot so we can diagnose why it is not tappable in your case?
Hope that helps,
Frank

Office 2013 - Is there a way to when installing that you can change the default save location without having to configure it within the client?

So, What I am trying to do is deploy Office 2013 throughout our company, and I do not want the users to save their business or personal files created within Office 2013 on the C: drive or Sky Drive. We have what is called the U: drive and I'd like to know
if there's a quick registry tweak that I can use to not only change the default location upon setting up a computer, but to deploy through Group Policy?
One other question perhaps; Is there a way to change not only the file location to default to only the one place, but also is there a way to also set a specific size limit to folders and prevent certain files from being saved (videos and personal pictures).
I have our network pretty tight as to what or who can go where, and what not, I am just really for an answer or some help to the default location...anything you have GREATLY APPRECIATED!

You can use the OCT and/or domain Group Policy, to customise the Office experience and settings for your users:

Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)

Fresh installation of Exchange Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012.
Our first test account cannot access their email via Outlook but can access fine through OWA. The following message appears - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize
your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)" is displayed.
If I turn off cached Exchange mode, setting the email account to not
cache does not resolve the issue and i get a new error message - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. The file (path\profile name).ost is not an Outlook data file (.ost). Very odd since it creates its own .ost file when you run it for the first
time.
I cleared the appdata local Outlook folder and I tested on a new laptop that has never connected to Outlook, same error message on any system.
Microsoft Exchange RPC Client Access service is running.
No warning, error or critical messages in the eventlog, it's like the healthiest server alive.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I haven't encountered this issue with previous versions of Exchange.

So it looks like a lot of people are having this issue and seeing how Exchange 2013 is still new (relatively to the world) there isn't much data around to answer this. I've spend ALOT of time trying to figure this out.
Here is the answer. :) - No I don't know all but I'm going to try to give you the most reasonable answer to this issue, in a most logical way.
First thing I did when I was troubleshooting this issue is that I ignored Martina Miskovic's suggestion for Step4 http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj218640(EXCHG.150)because it didn't make sense to me because I was trying to connect
Outlook not outside the LAN but actually inside. However, Martina's suggestion does fix the issue if it's applied in the correct context.
This is where the plot thickens (it's stew). She failed to mention that things like SSL (which I configure practically useless - anyone who ever worked in a business environment where the owner pretty much trusts anyone in the company, otherwise they don't
work there - very good business practice in my eyes btw, can confirm that...) are some sort of fetish with Microsoft lately. Exchange 2013 was no exception.
In exchange 2003, exchange 2007 and exchange 2010 - you could install it and then go to outlook and set it up. And when outlook manual Microsoft Exchange profile would ask you for server name, you would give it and give the name of the person who you setting
up - as long as machine is on the domain, not much more is needed. IT JUST WORKS! :) What a concept, if the person already on premises of the business - GIVE HIM ACCESS. I guess that was too logical for Microsoft. Now if you're off premises you can use things
like OutlookAnywhere - which I might add had their place under that scenario.
In Exchange 2013, the world changed. Ofcourse Microsoft doesn't feel like telling it in a plain english to people - I'm sure there is an article somewhere but I didn't find it. Exchange 2013 does not support direct configuration of Outlook like all of it's
previous versions. Did you jaw drop? Mine did when I realized it. So now when you are asked for your server name in manual outlook set up and you give it Exchange2013.yourdomain.local - it says cannot connect to it. This happens because ALL - INTERNAL AND
EXTERNAL connection are now handled via OutlookAnywhere. You can't even disable that feature and have it function the reasonable way.
So now the question still remains - how do you configure outlook. Well under server properties there is this nice section called Outlook anywhere. You have a chance to configure it's External and Internal address. This is another thing that should be logical
but it didn't work that way for me. When I configured the external address different from the internal - it didn't work. So I strongly suggest you get it working with the same internal address first and then ponder how you want to make it work for the outside
users.
Now that you have this set up you have to go to virtual directories and configure the external and internal address there - this is actually what the Step 4 that Martina was refering to has you do.
Both external and internal address are now the same and you think you can configure your outlook manually - think again. One of the most lovely features of Outlook Anywhere, and the reason why I had never used it in the past is that it requires a TRUSTED
certificate.
See so it's not that exchange 2013 requires a trusted certificate - it's that exchange 2013 lacks the feature that was there since Windows 2000 and Exchange 5.5.
So it's time for you to install an Active Direction Certificate Authority. Refer to this wonderful article for exact steps - http://careexchange.in/how-to-install-certificate-authority-on-windows-server-2012/
Now even after you do that - it won't work because you have to add the base private key certificate, which you can download now from your internal certsrv site, to Default Domain Policy (AND yes some people claim NEVER mess with the Default Domain Policy,
always make an addition one... it's up to you - I don't see direct harm if you know what you want to accomplish) see this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738131%28v=ws.10%29.aspx if you want to know exact steps.
This is the moment of ZEN! :) Do you feel the excitement? After all it is your first time. Before we get too excited lets first request and then install the certificate to actual Exchange via the gui and assign it to all the services you can (IIS, SMTP and
there is a 3rd - I forgot, but you get the idea).
Now go to your client machine where you have the outlook open, browse to your exchange server via https://exchang2013/ in IE and if you don't get any certificate errors - it's good. If you do run on hte client and the server: gpupdate /force This will refresh
the policy. Don't try to manually install the certificate from Exchange's website on the client. If you wanna do something manually to it to the base certificate from the private key but if you added it to the domain policy you shouldn't have to do it.
Basically the idea is to make sure you have CA and that CA allows you to browse to exchange and you get no cert error and you can look at the cert and see that's from a domain CA.
NOW, you can configure your outlook. EASY grasshoppa - not the manual way. WHY? Cause the automatic way will now work. :) Let it discover that exachange and populate it all - and tell you I'm happy! :)
Open Outlook - BOOM! It works... Was it as good for you as it was for me?
You may ask, why can't I just configure it by manual - you CAN. It's just a nightmare. Go ahead and open the settings of the account that got auto configed... How do you like that server name? It should read something like [email protected]
and if you go to advanced and then connection tab - you'll see Outlook Anywhere is checked as well. Look at the settings - there is the name of the server, FQDN I might add. It's there in 2 places and one has that Mtdd-something:Exchange2013.yourdomain.local.
So what is that GUID in the server name and where does it come from. It's the identity of the user's mailbox so for every user that setting will be different but you can figure it out via the console on the Exchange server itself - if you wish.
Also a note, if your SSL certs have any trouble - it will just act like outlook can't connect to the exchange server even though it just declines the connection cause the cert/cert authority is not trusted.
So in short Outlook Anywhere is EVERYWHERE! And it has barely any gui or config and you just supposed to magically know that kind of generic error messages mean what... Server names are now GUIDs of the [email protected] - THAT MAKES PERFECT
SENSE MICROSOFT! ...and you have to manage certs... and the only place where you gonna find the name of the server is inside the d*** Outlook Anywhere settings in the config tab, un it's own config button - CAN WE PUT THE CONFIG ANY FURTHER!
Frustrating beyond reason - that should be Exchange's new slogan...
Hope this will help people in the future and won't get delete because it's bad PR for Microsoft.
PS
ALSO if you want to pick a fight with me about how SSL is more secure... I don't wanna hear it - go somewhere else...
