When accessing any tab from Setup - Correspondence (Classic loo), the whole application locks up.  The exit button is dimmed, and while a screen appears to flicker briefly in the background, nothing loads.  Task Manager is required to kill the processes.

Similar to the problem with Address file minimising and same solution.  Edit the Workstation ini file (shared data directory) and remove the following from the startup positions:

        X = .Number("Setup_Address_X")

        Y = .Number("Setup_Address_Y")

        w = .Number("Setup_Address_W")

        h = .Number("Setup_Address_H")

 

 

If the Address File - Correspondence screen minimises on starting up, this has been caused by the screen having been minimised and then exited.  Maximising the screen and then exiting does not resolve the problem.

The start up settings are stored in the Workstation 'ini' file (in the shared data directory).

Edit the 'ini' file and in the [StartupPositions] segment, remove the entries for 'Setup_Address' entries.

They will recreate themselves when you open up the Correspondence tab.

 

 

If scanned documents and External Documents are displaying a message regarding ImageMan being a trial version, carry out the following steps:

 

1. Find and delete all copies of im8pdf.dil on the PC with the problem.  These will be in C:\Program Files\ImageMan DLL folders and possibly c:\spmwin.

2. Run the add-on installer imxPDFImport880 (2).exe  found in \\isw-nas\source\DeveloperUpdates\Imageman PDF

3. The file im8pdf.dil may also need to be copied to the program directory (normally c:\Spmwin).

All of a sudden RDC will take this pop up window and resize it automatically, slowly expanding the entire screen, then moving to the left.  Then it will disappear, assuming it got too big to fit on the screen.  Another even weirder thing is on another window it seems to snap to the top of the screen then moves to the left... After awhile it reappears on the other side of the screen still moving to the left.  I was able to replicate this on multiple Mac computers using OSX 10.10.5 and the latest Remote Desktop Client for mac. 

There is a new RDP app for iOS which may fix the window 'tracking' problem on an Apple Mac:

A Windows update is required to correct this.  Please refer to the Windows Support article:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-nz/help/4284848/windows-10-update-kb4284848

“Addresses issues with the Remote Desktop client in which pop-up windows and drop-down menus don't appear and right-clicking doesn't work properly. These issues occur when using remote applications. “

 This update is mentioned in the discussion linked below (in later messages).

If the Print Preview screen is saved off the screen (or on a second monitor that is no longer available) it may be necessary to edit the workstation ini file and delete the entry:

workstation .ini file, under [<workstationname>], the TxPreviewForm_* values

After installing your printer driver(s) please ensure that you can do a test print from Windows to the device.

To do a test print from Windows

From (Windows) Settings - Printers & Scanners, select the printer.

• Select Manage
• Select Print a test page
• 
• A Windows test page should print.

If a test page fails to print, please contact your hardware technician.

If a test page has printed, then proceed with configuring the printer in the Incisive application.

Incisive recommend that if you are hosted in the inCLOUD.clinic system or you have your own Terminal Server (Remote Desktop) environment, you should be using TSPrint or TSScan to get an optimal experience.

You will need to install the TSPrint Client and TSScan Client applications on the local workstation/laptops so that they perform correctly.

The installation process is very simple and no additional licensing is required.

Instructions to install and configure TSPrint for SPM & PHM applications

The TSPrint guide is available:

Windows -  https://www.terminalworks.com/remote-desktop-printing/downloads/documentation/TSPrintGuide.pdf

Mac - https://www.cloudwalks.com/uploads/2/6/6/5/26654030/printing_guide_for_mac.pdf (this is a bit old)

If clients are unable to access tabs in Office Mode (plus also Setup - Appointments - Sessions or Setup - Personnel - Operators) this is because a control that is used in these areas of the program is not correctly registered.

The tabs work correctly from Newlogin.

The control is 'Spmd_interopcontrols'.

1. Try deleting the manifest files (*.manifest).

If this fails to resolve the problem, the files need to be re-registered.


Start - Run

c:\spmwin\Regasm32 spmd_interopcontrols.dll /s /u /codebase

c:\spmwin\Regasm32 spmd_interopcontrols.dll /s /codebase

Overview

Most computers are now configured to automatically install Windows updates and this update process can cause the Specialist Practice Manager or the Private Hospital Manager to   not start up correctly.  

Symptoms

After you have tried to start the application you may receive error messages saying 'Automation Error' or 'Object Not Found' or similar.

Solution

1. Restart your computer.
2. Log onto your computer using a login that has Administrator rights (you may need to ask your technician or even get them to do the following process)
3. If you have an Incisive folder on your Desktop, open it and look for a shortcut called something like 'Register Program Files'.  If there is one right-mouse-click on the shortcut and choose 'Run As Administrator'.
   This will cause a black window to appear and it will register all the programs in the Incisive program directory.
   You can start SPM or PHM up again once it has completed.
4. If you do not have an option to register the program files you will need to do the following
   1. Click on the Start button
   2. Type in the word RUN and then select the Run app from the search results
   3. In the Run option type in the following:
      C:\spmwin\registerspm.bat      then press the Enter key
   4. A black window will appear and the files will register automatically.
      You can start SPM or PHM after it has finished.

If these options do not correct the problem please contact the Incisive Helpdesk or your technician.

Outlook can cause focus issue.

Check the setting 'Enable Live Preview'.  If this is enabled, disable it.  You can find the setting in File - Options - General.

The RPC server is unavailable error means your Windows computer is having a problem with communication with other devices or machines through the network you use.

We suggest that your contact your hardware technician to get them to troubleshoot the issue.

If you receive this message, do not remove or update your versions of Java if you either use Medicare Online (Australia) or upload files to ACC (New Zealand) as both of these applications require Java.  Click on the 'X' to close this screen.

From your Windows task bar, right mouse click on the Java icon,

And then select Cancel.

When running Teamviewer on an Apple Mac, you may need to modify security access so remote support can see your screens otherwise all that is displayed is a blank screen.

Two steps:

1. Download TeamviewerQS for a Mac from this link and install it
2. Make Teamviewer accessible in System Preferences > Security > Privacy, Unlock access then select Teamviewer.
3. If Teamviewer is already running, exit Teamviewer and start it again so that the new security settings are used.
4. 

To re-register .NET interop assembly spmd_interopcontrols.dll 

CD C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319
RegAsm c:\spmwin\spmd_interopcontrols.dll /unregister
RegAsm c:\spmwin\spmd_interopcontrols.dll

The Incisive application only runs when run in Administrator mode.  If not, when trying to log in, the following message appears.

Resolved issue by reconfiguring the ODBC connection on each workstation to connect to SQL server using named pipes rather than TCP/IP and using ISW as login.

Alternatively, try using an IP address rather than the server name.
