Have you ever added a new company contact to your iPhone Address Book? Have you also provided a First and Last Name of the contact, working at that company?
If you did, you may have noticed that the iPhone will treat this new contact after saving not as a company, but as a normal person contact.
I personally had to deal with this “issue” a few times recently. But I found a workaround:
Challenge?
Run a Windows application as the local Admin user, and directly pass a file path to open with that app.
Fail attempts…
I thought a Windows Command Line script would be the easiest to achieve my challenge. So I tried using…
RUNAS – which runs a specific application under the given name. BUT doesn’t allow to pass a parameter (f.eg. file path)
START – starts an application and let’s you pass a parameter (f.eg. file path). BUT doesn’t allow you to start the application as a different user.
Solution!
So I continued searching the Internet, and I finally stumbled upon a hint which lead me to the solution: you need to modify a shortcut to the affected application!
In my case I had the issue with the Adobe AIR package-installer and passing directly an Adobe AIR-application to it for install.

Dass es uns in der Ostschweiz nie langweilig werden muss, wissen die hier ansässigen Schweizer natürlich.
Bilder – oder in diesem Falle Filme – sagen oftmals aber mehr als Worte: ein sehr spannendes Projekt der Kulturstifung Pro Helvetia hat von Mai bis Oktober 2008 in den Ostschweizer Kantonen St. Gallen, Appenzell Ausserrhoden & Appenzell Innerrhoden rund 80 Kurzfilme von bekannten, modernen & traditionellen, Festen aufgezeichnet und dabei die Stimmung der Menschen wunderbar eingefangen.
Es lohnt sich ein Blick in die Filmgalerie – aber Achtung: es ist kaum möglich, nur wenige Minuten dort zu verbringen, denn die Kurzbeiträge ziehen einem schnell in den Bann!
