Sheridan Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 We've got Office 11 for Mac on our room fulls of 10.6.8 imacs (upgrading to 10.9 over the summer!), which works OK apart from one irritation. Whenever a new users logs in they have to got through the personalisation process which is a bit slow and a nuisance. Now if it was a windows PC I'd simply put the details from the relevant registry hive into the Default user profile, but is there a similar way to do this in OSX?
Arthur Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 is there a similar way to do this in OS X? There certainly is... officeformachelp.com/office/administration/mcx/ wiki.afp548.com/index.php/Office_2011_Settings 1
Sheridan Posted March 20, 2014 Author Posted March 20, 2014 Thanks. I looked at preferences but couldn't find them. I'll have a better look tomorrow!
seawolf Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 This may help - MCX | OfficeforMacHelp.com If you were using Casper Suite, you could just run Composer and launch MS Office 2011 on a new user to capture the plist created at startup (registration), then pre-populate this with default details and copy into the default user template of your image. Then, every user who logs in would have the registration or FirstRun plist pre-populated and they wouldn't get prompted.
