    OS9 access privileges

    I have a panel user on this Mac G4 that needs access to run MS Office for Mac, but I cannot get it to work. I am told that the user does not have enough access privileges. I have turned on sharing on the folder & given the user read/write access, but this has made no difference. I used to have...

    Renaming a mac OS9.2 machine

    Probably a very simple solution to this, but I haven't found it yet. Do not use MAC's that much, but how can I rename a MAC that is running OS9.2 Thanks

    Moving a row in Excel

    The title sounds simple enough, but it is a bit more than it sounds. What I would like to be able to do is move a row from one worksheet to another if one cell in the row to move meets certain conditions. For example if cell G8 = CHAR(252) move row 8 to sheet 2 Does that make sense & is it...

    Excel count cells

    Not sure if this will make sense, but here goes. If I have a number of cells that require data, say G3,H3,I3 etc & I have a cell that has the number 3 (A3) in it, how can I add up the number of cells as long as they have data in them. Say Cells G3 & H3 have data that would equal 2 cells, but...

    Calc Conditional formatting

    I can get conditional formatting to work on a cell, but I would like to get a separate cell to be conditioned in the same way even if the cell contents are different to the original cell. Hope that makes sense. something like: If Cell A1 = 3 then cell A6 would be conditionally formatted to be grey.

    Add shortcut to startup folder

    Is there anyway to add a programs shortcut to the Vista startup folder via a batch file or script, so that it will run on boot up? I have tried the following line in a batch file but I get access denied: copy program.lnk c:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Startm~1\Programs\Startup If I try this in...

    Change Proxy with VBscript in Windows Vista

    I have a VBscript that enables users to turn on/off the proxy server on their laptops, so that the proxy server is turned off for home use. This works without a problem in XP or older, but in Vista it will not always change the settings. I know that it is down to the UAC in Vista, because if the...

    Scribus on MAC

    Can anyone help me get Scribus installed on an iMac running osX. I have Scribus running, but it requires ghostscript to be in the framework directory. I have done this, but it still doesn't recognise that it is there. Not sure what to do next. Thanks

    Samsung CLP-500N errors

    We have a Samsung CLP-500N Colour laser printer that had a band of colour that ran across the page. I cleaned the transfer belt, which corrected the problem for a short time. It came back so I got a new imaging drum & transfer belt. On installing these I get an error message that the imaging...

    Default save format

    I know how to set the default save format, but have been unable to get it to work for all users. I have tried changing the XCU files, but this stopped save working altogether & I had to re-install OOo on that server. We are using version 2.3. Any thoughts?

    Revoke Terminal Server Client licence

    Does anyone know of a way to revoke a Terminal Server Client licence on the TS licence server? I have machines that are still allocated a licence, that are no longer on the system. Their licence may not run out for another 30 days or more. I think MS are introducing this feature in the next...

    Update thread950-1262028

    Update to this thread950-1262028. I did sort this a while ago, but thought I would post the answer here. I needed to release the IP address from the client machine & then renew it. As this was a Windows ME machine I used IPCONFIG /RELEASE_ALL Then IPCONFIG /RENEW_ALL Hope this helps anyone with...

    Laptop display problem

    I have an IBM laptop that I am trying to fix. The problem is that the display seems bright or the contrast is wrong. This happens anywhere, in the BIOS, Windows ect. If you have a dark background it isn't to bad ie. DOS style window. I have checked everything that I can think of in the BIOS to...

    DHCP not working correctly

    I have just setup a DHCP scope on a Windows 2000 advanced server. All seems fine except one machine keeps getting its DHCP setting from another source. This is a clients site, they have a router that is setup for DHCP. This will soon be replaced & all the IP addresses had been set up manually...

    Terminal services & thin clients

    Does anybody know how terminal services works? I have a fair idea, but this one has me baffled. We have had some machines that have taken more than one TS licence. We have removed & re-installed terminal services & the licences to try & sort this problem, having upgraded the firmware on the thin...

    Restricting Users Internet Access

    Does anyone know of a way to stop users internet access, on a per user or per group basis. We are running Windows 2K server with Active Directory. We have a proxy server, but the software on that server doesn't have anything about this. Is there any software available or could this be done with...

    Maybe I am being thick or looking in the wrong place, but I would like to be able to view a log of the users that have accessed the network either for the whole day or for a specified time frame. I would like to see the username, machine name or IP (preferably the machine name) & the time. Does...

    Mandatory profiles with local programs

    I don't know if this is possible, but I need to make a roaming or mandatory profile. This shouldn't be a problem, but I have some machines with different local programs that are needed to be used, so if I had shortcuts in the profile they wouldn't work on all machines. Does anyone know how to...
