OneDrive and the Windows Dev Center seem to be out of sync aka Microsoft account Developer Center - azure-mobile-services

Today I tried to update the settings for my Windows Store apps within the "Microsoft account Developer Center". I have two major issues:
Existing apps within the "Microsoft account Developer Center" cannot be deleted
When I tried to delete an app (that was not present anymore within the Windows Dev Center) I got the following error message:
When I tried to add a domain for a new managed Azure Mobile Service, I got the following error message
I am sure that it is not possible for two parties to create two WAMS services with the same name. I am looking for an explanation on how to fix this problems.

To answer the question in reverse order:
The error "The domain you specified..." indicates that another application has already used the domain you are trying to specify, or the domain is reserved. To get an exception you need to follow the instructions in the link;
Re Deleting your application. In order to delete an application that is also a Windows Store application you must delete it from the Windows Store portal. i.e. https://appdev.microsoft.com/StorePortals/en-US/Account/signup/start

Google workspace GCPW/OMA URI implementation

We are trying the google workspace(GCPW) for sharing the msi package from google admin to multiple user.
Problems we are facing :-
In windows 10 home we have successfully created the custom policy of OMA URI to share the app, But msi package is not installing on users system as per expectation. Later i received an email from google that it will only support in windows 10 pro.
So I tried it on 2 windows 10 pro system and installed the GCPW installer on both the systems and it was successfully installed, But unfortunately GCPW login is not working please find the below errors i a having in both systems.
a. 1st System issue - This email isn't allowed to sign in. Try again with the account you use for work or school. If you still can't sign in, Contact administrator
2nd system issue - We cannot find the option to login using GCPW (Like Add work account with google logo).
Hope the issues is understanding correctly with you all guys, If need to understand it further please do let me know.
Thanks

Getting "No Certificates meet the Application Criteria" when trying to deploy to Windows Store

I've been publishing applications for years on the Windows Store. I haven't deployed in about six months, so it's entirely possible that something may have expired. When I try to select a certificate for my store application, I get this message:
I tried deleting the store association and re-associating. Tried creating a self-signed certificate, and then downloading a cert from the store. I tried creating a new product name and assigning it to a new Visual Studio UWP project. Tried logging out and logging back in in Visual Studio to my Work account. Checked the Partner's Center to see if some agreement had expired. Nothing seems to work.

error activating .wsp file in sharepoint server 2010

I developed a sample application in visual studio 2010. I created an Empty SharePoint Project and gave the local site url for debugging. Checked "Deploy as Farm" as the trust level of the SharePoint solution. Added a visual webpart and also a class to the solution. I am able to build and successfully run the application using visual studio. In my local machine am using SharePoint foundation 2010 to debug the SharePoint application.
Now i want to deploy this application in the SharePoint server 2010 which is in a virtual machine.
1. I copied the .wsp file of the application i created to the virtual machine.
2. From the central administrator in the VM I created a web application and the site collection.
3. Then using Site Actions -> Site Settings -> Solution(Galleries), choose the .wsp file for uploading. it showed a "Warning: You should only activate this solution if you trust this solution. An activated solution can read, modify and delete your data. " and the activate button is disabled.
Then I tried to do same in my local machine on a different site collection. Here Activate button is enabled but when clicked it threw exception
Server Error in '/' Application.
This solution contains invalid markup or elements that cannot be deployed as part of a sandboxed solution. Solution manifest for solution 'aee60282-765d-4c9f-b67a-5981f18a6d3b' failed validation, file manifest.xml, line 10, character 4: The element 'Solution' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/' has invalid child element 'TemplateFiles' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/'. List of possible elements expected: 'FeatureManifests, ActivationDependencies' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/'.
What could be this error?
The "TemplateFiles" element refers to items that will be copied onto the web server. This is allowed for farm solutions (which are deployed via CentralAdmin), but is not allowed for sandboxed solutions (which are deployed via the Solution Gallery).
When you deploy your wsp with visual studio, you deploy it as farm solution.
When you deploy your wsp from site settings into solution galery, you deploy it as user solution (sandbox solution) with some limitations :
first, avoid using out of the box visual webparts, it's prohibited !
Deploy your wsp by writing powershell script.
A good starting point here :
patrickboom.wordpress.com/2010/05/31/using-powershell-to-deploy-sharepoint-solutions-wsp-2/
Le_Fredo is correct here, when attempting to deploy a WSP file into the site collection directly under the site settings, you won't be able to. I found this article from microsoft to be extermely helpful

ClickOnce check for update without executing app

I work in a service organization where users of our internal tools are often disconnected. It is often the case that service engineers on service assignments are "stranded" with an outdated version of some internal tool.
These tools are deployed using ClickOnce publish VS2010 .NET4 . If the users run all their apps while still connected to corporate network, they would get a notification that a new version was available. As the number of various tools increase, the chance increases that some app is not updated.
Is it possible to automate this process, by a batch file or something?
So that the engineers just need to run one file when connected to corporate nw to get all the newest versions of their installed tools?
Added:
An easier way of saying it would be to have "something like Windows update" operating on corporate net, but for internal ClickOnce apps.
Very interesting question. I can't think of a quick way to do this, but it's definitely possible.
I would create another ClickOnce app whose job is to update the other ClickOnce apps. This app needs the url of each app's .application file. If all engineers are supposed to have all apps, that's easy. If not, maybe you could look through their start menu and find all the ClickOnce Application Reference files. Those files contain the url.
Next, just launch the url and pass a query string argument...
http://server/MyApp/MyApp.application?UpdateOnly=true
In the startup of your applications, you can check the query string argument and shut down the app if it's run with UpdateOnly=true.
One side note. If you set the minimum required version of each of your apps to the latest version, users won't get prompted with the new version dialog. Seems like you'd want to do that or the user would still have to pay attention and do a lot of clicking.

List and delete all Enterprise Apps installed in iphone

I am trying to develop an application which lists a set of enterprise application along with the installation status.I tried to do his by accessing "com.apple.mobile.installation.plist",but i am not aware about its exact location in device.Also this is an enterprise application so device should provide access to get this information some way..Looking for a solution.Also i need to delete the apps also ...
Cannot be done. App installation and deletion requires user initiative.
