  • The part of the address of the message writing window TB can cause its own adjustable frame in size as in previous versions of TB?

    In older versions of TB the part of the address of the message entry window had its own adjustable chassis. It was useful that you could develop the image to see all addresses at a time and avoid errors of sending emails to the wrong people, especially when you reply to all and to remove some addresses for example answering users in the company, excluding visitors to learn sensitive information.

    In the recent release you can only see three lines of e-mail addresses and use the scroll bar to see the rest of them, but you may miss the addresses during scrolling up/down. He needs more time to verify that the necessary addresses are there and it is not effective at all.

    Can someone restore the setting of the address in the window of writing? Is there a plan to change this in future versions?

    Please note that I use Thunderbird on Windows XP platform

    Yes! Just below the slider bar formatting changes and you can increase the size of the email address area to see more addresses.

    However, I liked the old style better which was more intuitive. Anyway, there is a way to do the job.

    Thank you very much!

  • Placeholder Virtual Hardware Version different from the virtual machine active

    Hi all

    This is my first post to the community, so please be nice :-)

    I'm looking for after an ESXi U2 with MRS 5.5 5.1 environment and I have a problem I hope you can help me with?

    After an update of the all virtual V7 and V8 to V9 material throughout the environment recently, I noticed that is not reflected in the placeholder SRM on those virtual machines information placeholder. I hope it's just an aesthetic issue, but I don't want to get into a situation of DR and find that it is a question then (or it is systematic of a bigger problem!). I know I can do a test failure to confirm, but I'm not in that position at the moment as the company policy says I can only do the test during a maintenance window that is not for a while...

    I thought that the easiest option would be to "Recreate a Placeholder" in [groups] but this is grayed out on (which I suppose is because the protection status is "OK")... Protection status gives me some comfort, but this gap in information gives me a bad feeling...

    Your help and your advice would be appreciated!

    Crispy

    Hi crispy, welcome in the community :-)

    What happens if you go to the Protection Group, select a virtual machine, right-click and remove Protection, and then set it up again?

    These procedures will remove the placeholder VM and recreate without doubt using new hardware version... but do not forget that the ESXi host at the target site must be compatible with the new version of hardware.

  • I just bought a second hand iMac G4 (w/OS 10.5) for my children and I would use Firefox, preferably in the Dutch language. We can find and download a (NL) version of Firefox that will run on the Mac? Best regards, Jan B. Bussemaker

    Bij voorbaat dank!

    For older Mac that are not supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6, try TenFourFox of PowerPC running Mac 10.4.11 and 10.5.8.

  • Win98SE invited in WS v10.0.1; cannot upgrade virtual hardware

    I installed VMware WS v9.x v10.0.1 and, as with all the previous WS upgrades, I upgraded the virtual hardware to version 10.  With one exception, all that is.  My Win98SE guest does not accept the upgrade of virtual equipment of v9 to v10.  I have an error message: "this virtual machine does not have the latest version of VMWare Tools.  You must update the VMware Tools until you can upgrade the virtual machine.  "For more information about upgrading, see 'http://vmware.com/info?id=98'.  I am running WS on a Win8.1 Pro host.

    First of all, I did never had upgrade level of VMware Tools before upgrading the hardware.  I always updated the virtual material THEN upgraded VMware Tools.  In fact, I just did it for my Windows XP and Ubuntu Linux VMs, Win7.

    Secondly, it seems to be there anyway no new version of VMware Tools for Win98SE.  When I start the operating system, I get no automatic indication I had to upgrade.  When I go to the VM option in WS while the VM is running I only get the option "Reinstall VMware Tools".  And when I set the winPre2k.iso on the virtual CD and start the installation manually I get only the options to repair/uninstall/reinstall.  Relocation of the VMware Tools has the same original problem.

    I remember something vaguely similar in the past where VMware has released an upgrade which was problematic because they did not provide a new VMware Tools for Windows Pre2k operating systems and has not bothered to even update the version number in the file winPre2k.iso so that it works correctly with the new virtual hardware.  I'm guessing that something like this can happen again.  Either that or there is some kind of a bug.  I am remiss to contact VMware directly to report a bug through their support mechanisms; the last time I did it turned into a long 6 + months fiasco loaded many emails back to California and the India Conference calls, allowing the remote control of my computer, etc.

    When I tried to create a new VM Win98SE, WS chose the 10 hardware version that tells me Win98SE is supposed to work on this latest version of virtual equipment.

    So, let's recap: WS v10.x wants the latest tools installed in Win98SE VM prompt to update the virtual hardware to v10 but do not accept that there is NO new version of tools.  I have marked this message as a question in case someone can offer opportunities to a solution which I missed.  It's maddening to constantly through problems like this in a piece of software as professional and expensive.

    Sorry you have a question however...

    : 1 Windows 98 is more a BONE officially supported by VMware for VMware Workstation 10 (or Microsoft for that matter) even if it can be selected in the wizard.

    Fact 2: A given virtual hardware version can be selected does not mean all the features will be compatible with all operating systems or any OS.

    Fact 3: Products VMware, like many other manufactured goods, have questions that will have to be workaround at certain times.

    Then...  If it appears there is a question of trying to change the hardware compatibility through the user interface and then manually edit the .vmx config file to make the changes necessary and appropriate!

    If I were to create a Windows 98 VM by selecting "hardware compatibility:" Workstation 9.0 and 10.0 Workstation, while accepting all the default values, the only difference in the .vmx config file is virtualHW.version = '9' vs virtualHW.version = "10".  If a simple manual modification of the .vmx config file it will modernize to 10!

    My husband doesn't like the itunes account is under my name.  I have a way that he can have his own name and sign on with her and still exist on the family account?  Also, have we HAVE two-step verification?   It's a real pain.

    Yes it can have its own ID and share your content via the family sharing, he needs to sign out of your ID and to create his own, then one of you needs to invite another family sharing.

    You don't need to use 2 verification step, if you want you can disable to my Apple ID

  • View composer does not see the VM images parent after Virtual Hardware 7 upgraded?

    I upgraded to 4.0.1 view last month, then there are 2 weeks, we have upgraded to vSphere. After the upgrade, I upgraded to VMware tools of a VM parent, improved virtual hardware 7 and took a new snapshot. When I go to the view admin console I don't see the new snapshot, I made available in the form of default image. It works very well so that the virtual machine is stored virtual hardware version 4, but breaks after moving to 7.

    Did I miss a step? Anyone else seen this problem? I'm close to the opening of a case of pension on the issue.

    It is an option on an existing pool.  Just change the pool and go to either host or a cluster.  The box should be at the bottom of the page.

  • Upgrade VM hardware Version?

    Hello

    Will be upgraded infrastructure Vmware Esx3.5 4.1 Vsphere Essentials plus customers.

    They currently have only 2 ESX 3.5 server and where the addition of a new third-party server.

    Virtual machines are stored on a storage area network that is accessible to all the ESX servers.

    Since there is currently no facility HA or DRS, my plan is to just configure the new server with 4.1, get a new Vcenter running.

    IM assuming that the new Vcenter server can add servers from 3.5 to 4.1.

    So my plan is to make a cold migration of virtual machines to the new 4.1 server.  Then once I have all the VMS on the server of 3.5.  Install 4.1 from scratch there, then move some VM turn it back on for the other ESX Server.

    My first question is just to confirm that the above, sounds good and should work?

    My next question,

    Once all my servers on Version 4.1, then I want to update versions of material on all my virtual machines.

    I was going to use Vmware Converter to do this.  It is usually the best way to upgrade the version of the hardware in a virtual computer?

    Third Question

    There are some virtual machines such as Exchange and domain controllers, I prefer not to convert while it is energized (Live).  IDE rather shut the virtual machine to low and then convert.
    Can VMware Converter Convert a motor turns off the Virtual Machine, or should I use the cold Clone CD to do?

    Thank you

    Mike

    New server vCenter Server can also handle former guests.

    Before the virtual hardware upgrade, you must first pass VMware Tools.

    Then, you must be sure that no host ESX/ESXi 3.x not existence.

    Virtual material conversion must come from vSphere client (power off the virtual machine and choose upgrade virtual hardware).

    Converter isn't the right solution and require more space

  • vMA hardware Version

    Hello

    Just to confirm, I have vMA 4.1 and I see it running version 4 of material. To my knowledge, we don't have to upgrade the hardware version/VMware Tools on a virtual appliance. Is this correct? I'm under esxi 4.1 U1 and I was wondering if the vMA can / must be upgraded to version 7 of material

    You can upgrade to a more recent version of virtual hardware, it will not affect vMA and got him to v7 and v8. The reason why it is set at a lower virtual hardware, so it's can be installed on another version of vSphere so that run on workstation or fusion. Remember, that one usually upgrades virtual hardware to take advantage of some new features that are provided by the new virtual hardware version, else it is not necessary to upgrade.

  • Firefox has its own flash player so I can delete adobe?

    I would like to know if firefox has its own built flash player, like adobe a safety risk and I would delete it please.
    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, no, for sites that require Flash, it isn't really good substitute.

    Earlier today, Adobe has released an update to solve critical problems, he admitted were in the 18.0.0.203 version. You can get 18.0.0.209 on this page:

    https://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

    In the first table, find the row corresponding to "browser plugin", and you can use either the EXE or the MSI installer.

    To ensure that the Setup program can remove the older version, either out of Firefox or close all the tabs using the Flash before you do the update.

    That said, the Flash can still have secret flaws that have not yet come to light. In fact, it seems likely enough. Until this ordeal of previously unknown security flaws shakes, you might want to try this and see how it fits. To set the Flash "Ask to activate", after you have reinstalled it, open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Search 'Shockwave Flash' and always change 'enable' to 'ask to activate '.

    Then when you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification in the address bar icon and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

    If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the Lego-like icon in the address bar to allow Flash. You have the choice to allow for a period of time or permanently.

    But some pages use Flash only for tracking or play ads, so if you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification. It will just sit there in case you later want.

  • Almost every day, I leave Firefox open for a number of hours to find it closed on its own during my absence. Why?

    Today, it was a typical day. I was on my laptop Dell electronic control around 16:00 I left the computer connected and powered with Firefox 8.0 still running. When I came back to my computer laptop about 07:20, I found that Firefox had closed on its own. No sign of a crash. It was simply closed. While not a huge problem, I don't like having to restart Firefox. Other applications continue to run when not in service. Why not Firefox? Or y at - it a setting I can use to prevent this from happening? Either way, this happens every day without exception.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

    Hello whitelotus,

    If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

    Use the following steps:

    (1) right click on the program

    2) click Properties

    3) click on the Compatibility tab

    (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

    Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    If compatibility is not successful, then try and self-test program compatibility issues:

    1. open the program compatibility problems theStart button.

    Then click on Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting tool, then clickTroubleshooting. Under programs, clickRun done for previous versions of Windows.

    2. follow the instructions in the troubleshooting.

    If you are unable to install a program, insert the installation disc for the program and, using the Troubleshoot utility, navigate to the program setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. This utility is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension.

    If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate version, install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx) and run your software in Windows XP.

    If you run Windows 7 Home Premium, try VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) or VMware Player (www.vmware.com), or any other software virtualization part 3rd and install a separate copy of Windows XP (family or professional edition) for this purpose. You can find the virtualization software free that will run on Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Hope that answers your question.

  • How can I find my own posts?

    How the * & (* &$ * % ^! can I find my own posts and discussions in the latest version of Apple Discussions?)

    To navigate in the latest version of Apple's Discussions, nothing was more difficult than trying to find my own posts. It has never been easy - and I use Apple Discussions for years, I saw the changing versions of the site - but now it's impossible, unless you already know how, and I don't have. I used to be able to see my own messages by clicking on 'My documents', but that's ancient history; now I have to wait for someone answer a question (and of course they don't answer old questions, although I might want to look it up) until I can return to one of my sons.

    Sorry to her grumpy - I love Apple Discussions - but Apple, this is ridiculous!  Who designs these things?  The first item needs any help Web site is certainly a nice, clear dropdown in the upper part of the screen with 'My account' > 'My son', or something like that, that same level 1 idiots like me can find without spending half an hour or more in a fruitless search.

    Press your username at the top of the site Web of the CSA and go see the profile-> activity. You can also see the threads you posted in is Content and choosing "Participants" in the left sidebar.

    The new interface of the CSA proved to be painful for some users, but I remember this kind of topics for the last big interface change. The new CSA is preferable in some aspects (now you can see how responds that a thread has got on the forum site) and the worst in others, but it's a matter of time to get used to it.
