I know it's not what you've asked, but wouldn't a Dictaphone/portable recorder be more affective? TASCAM DR-05 - MT RECORDERS - PORTABLE RECORDER | Woodbrass.com edit: Please ignore me, I obviously ignored the fact you said video. What about a video camera?

[ipad] Deleted everything on ipad but still only 145mb space remaining
gtg93 replied to gtg93's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
I've uninstalled the apps one-by-one, and it seems it might have been word. Since uninstalling Word (which just happened to be the app I save until last), the data remaining is creeping back up and is currently at just under 1GB... Seems odd, but we're gonna leave it and see if that resolves it (always good to know these things). That's the next port of call! -
[ipad] Deleted everything on ipad but still only 145mb space remaining
gtg93 replied to gtg93's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
The only apps installed are OWA, Word, Skype, Calculator, ITunes U, Recorder Plus and Youtube... Other than the standard apps that come on the device of course. Weirdly, the iOS settings show 68.8 mb at the moment (2mb more than the last time I looked), but when I just launched Recorder to make sure nothing was in there, it reported 271mb remaining. Somethine really strange appears to be happening... -
[ipad] Deleted everything on ipad but still only 145mb space remaining
gtg93 replied to gtg93's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
Just managed to free up a further 240mb by disabling "Keep Normal Photo" in Photos & Camera under the settings... The space has then dropped by a further 100mb and I haven't even done anything to the device! This is why I don't like apple I'll speak to the user, I wonder if a factory reset might be worth a try? edit: It's just dropped a further 100mb in two increments... dropping from 280 to 120 to 180... further edit: the space is plummeting down, and I'm not even doing anything. I've even enabled airplane mode so I know nothing is downloading - currently at 65.9mb -

[bug/error] Virus warning when accessing a page
gtg93 replied to gtg93's topic in EduGeek.net Site Problems
I am also using Avast for Business - but Web Shields are turned on... Possibly a false-positive but better safe than sorry! -
Thought this might be worth raising as an issue, not sure if it's a false positive from Avast, but I'm getting a virus warning when accessing @DaveP 's post http://www.edugeek.net/forums/general-chat/52822-smell-rotten-eggs-your-server-room-check-your-ups.html - not the link within the page, the actual post on edugeek. My avast log is for this detection shows: 07.07.2015 09:29:39 Network Shield: blocked access to malicious site http://bfbc2.statsverse.com/sig/clean6/ps3/O_oTaNk_gRiEf.png ([104.131.100.180]:80) [ C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE ( 2312 ) ] Anybody else or is this just me? Either way though it was worth mentioning. Edit: Upon disabling my AV, and navigating to the link within the AV log, I just get a "Player not found" message... Can't replicate on any other page of the site.

Nope Thanks I'll give this a go now -

gtg93 replied to gtg93's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
Nope - just the 5 or so pictures I'm not supposed to delete... Shows as been 12GB on the PC and having 145mb free too. Is there any software that lets you browse the whole device's storage is anyone aware? I have come across some in the past, I just can't seem to recall it's name or find it. -

gtg93 replied to gtg93's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
Thanks guys, but already checked the recently deleted and tried the date trick (apparently September 2014 is the magic date?) to no avail. -
It saddens/annoys me slightly that this is the first I've heard about this (not having read the news today). I knew myself what day it was, but not one person I've spoken to has mentioned this. In most of my schools, we hold a minute silence on days such as September 11th and more recently for the Tunisia attacks, to show respect to the people who lost their lives or had their lives affected by the such attacks. Yet for some reason, nothing ever happens on the 7th July and it was something horrific that took place on our soil. Granted, the attacks weren't on as big a scale as some others we remember, but I don't think they should be forgotten about. This isn't a "put Britain first" type rant, or at least that's not what it's intended to be, I just think more people should make an effort to remember. I myself was 12 years old when the attacks happened and at was at school... Fortunately no one I knew was involved, but a friends dad was in London at the time and I can remember the worry he went through when he couldn't reach him. Fortunately he was safe.

Hi All, having an issue with an iPad I'm hoping someone has a solution for. The device says 145mb of storage remaining, the breakdown says 10GB of the overall storage is used by Camera and Photos... Originally it said there was 0mb remaining, we've deleted all but 5 photos and freed up the 145mb... There's no way the photos are 2GB each - any ideas? Cheers

[php] Inserting row into MySQL Table - Only inserts one field
gtg93 replied to gtg93's topic in Web Development
From what I'm reading, am I correct in saying that the sanitisation of user input, basically removes all special characters, so if users were to try and input code, it wouldn't run? If so, you think that would sufficiently do the job for a simple application such as an inventory? -
[php] Inserting row into MySQL Table - Only inserts one field
gtg93 replied to gtg93's topic in Web Development
Thanks for the links - I'm aware at the moment they're vulnerable, but it's more of me just experimenting and playing about at the moment. Should it become a functioning tool however, or once I've mastered the basics, this is something I'll be looking at -

[php] Inserting row into MySQL Table - Only inserts one field
gtg93 posted a topic in Web Development
Hi All, I am playing around with PHP, SQL and CSS, and have built a very basic inventory system whilst doing so. It's all working fairly well, apart from when trying to insert a row into a table of the SQL DB. The row inserts, but it only fills in one of the fields - has anyone any ideas why this might be happening? Files are attached below: Apologies for the shocking formatting - just how I've separated things up for now, whilst I get to grips with it. update.html - this is the form to add new entries to the table </pre><form action="insert.php" method="post"> Network Name: Make: Model: CPU: RAM: HDD: Serial: Location: Main User: Purchase Date: Warranty End Date: Cost: Notes: </for view.php - This shows the table include 'config/header.php'; ?> Network Name Manufacturer Model CPU RAM Serial No. Location Main User Purchase Date Warranty End Date Cost When New Other Notes include 'config/db.php'; mysql_connect($host,$username,$password); @mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database"); $query="SELECT * FROM stafflaptops"; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); mysql_close(); echo "Inventory "; $i=0; while ($i < $num) { $networkname=mysql_result($result,$i,"Network Name"); $make=mysql_result($result,$i,"Manufacturer"); $model=mysql_result($result,$i,"Model"); $cpu=mysql_result($result,$i,"CPU"); $ram=mysql_result($result,$i,"RAM"); $hdd=mysql_result($result,$i,"HDD"); $serial=mysql_result($result,$i,"Serial"); $location=mysql_result($result,$i,"Location"); $mainuser=mysql_result($result,$i,"Main User"); $purchdate=mysql_result($result,$i,"Purchase Date"); $wardate=mysql_result($result,$i,"Warranty End"); $cost=mysql_result($result,$i,"Cost When New"); $notes=mysql_result($result,$i,"Notes"); ?> echo $networkname; ?> echo $make."

No errors or anything appearing in any logs - Any help appreciated! -
No we're not, we've had issues with it in the past, and some users like their passwords to be different (don't know why)

Hi All, I've got two schools that are merging under a new name, so rather than setting up a new office365 we're keeping the existing one that the first school has and migrating the second school's LA email over. They're then having a new domain added. What I'm wanting to do however, is make it so all users who currently have [email protected], take on a secondary email of [email protected], so they have both emails addresses for the next couple of months, then we can disband school.la.com when the time comes. Does anyone know of a quick way of doing this? I'd rather not do each one manually if possible. Cheers

Seems harsh Was this some form of test, or did everything actually get wiped?
-
Never thought about that - it's a stupid idea really. I'll see if that's the issue - cheers!

Just had a user come to me asking some advice regarding their personal emails. They use TalkTalk mail (groan). When receiving email, they come through to her iPad no problems, but when she logs into her web browser, he inbox displays as empty. I didn't believe it, but just had a look, and indeed it's right. Her inbox is empty, I've sent her some emails and they're not showing up. I've sent an email from her account to herself, it doesn't show up, but I am able to email myself from her account with no problems. Her sent emails are displaying in her sent box however. Any thoughts?

Why? You just run this as a batch file from your PC, and it will run delprof on the PC(s) remotely.
-
sc \\ICTROOM-01 start remoteregistry delprof2 /u /c:\\\\ICTROOM-01 /ed:administrator sc \\ICTROOM-01 stop remoteregistry This is what I use. First command starts remote registry service, second runs delprof2 (ignoring the administrator account) and the third stops remote registry service No need to keep remote registry running! This can be used when people are logged on, as Delprof ignores the profile if it's in use. edit: Obviously, just replace ICTROOM-01 with your computer name

[hosting] Looking for UK based VPS providers - EduTech based project
gtg93 replied to Liam-FD's topic in Web Development
https://www.unlimitedwebhosting.co.uk/vps-hosting-ssd.php Unlimted web hosting I'd recommend - there are some cheaper alternative out there, but for the speedy and helpfulness of their support, it's worth paying the extra money. They do offer CPanel licenses too, but they're direct from CPanel anyway so you'd be just as well buying your own. They're based in Manchester and use UK only datacenters. -
Oh so the issue is across multiple machines? Sorry, I think I'd misread the question, as I thought it was just on the one computer it was causing difficulties. I'd probably do as you've said too, and just make them a new account and copy work across.
