Check in AD that you don't have a profile path specified in the user account. Also the event logs on the Pc will give further information on what causes the error in some cases so worth a dig. If you are sure there is no profile path / script trying to make some profile then you are looking at lack of permissions on the machine I would say.

Talk to whoever you lease your photocopiers from as you would probably replace a photocopier with it

Unify software runs on 2008 R2 from my testing its just a Java app.

I must have been missing something with the Exchange boxes I have run in the past as I have never ever found them time-consuming or problematic. I must be missing something with them but I've never had any issues!

Fitted probably 20+ Casios in a variesty of rooms the only room that was an issue was Drama studio and it was an original unit and over-heated but being flooded and hit by a lot of high power drama lights never helped the heat issue given the column was HOT it was fitted on I dread to think what the unit was like. When I didn't fit Casio's I fitted NEC units

Sounds like you have a profile problem, are you using Roaming Profiles with your users? If so if the permissions are wrong on the share and folder it will give errors like you are having.

No as they are probably Linksys brains internally with a Cisco badge and price tag I'd be saying Unifi or Ruckus Ruckus will be more than the Unifi but look to the future in what you are doing an wanting you won't want to be replacing the Wifi Lan every 5 minutes!

As a lot of SLT are not IT Professionals and think that just because BitCommet works well at home that it won't harm to have it on the school computer or the 100 stupid add-on toolbars in IE etc... Seeing how some SLT I have worked with (not all) use a computer and click blindly and randomly, I'd expect a network to last all of 5 minutes with them!

Computer got IE10 on it now instead of IE9? Sounds like the machines Internet Explorer settings are borked. Go to Tools > Internet Options > Advanced and hit the shiny Reset button and then the same place but Security tab and ensure all 4 zones are set to default and see if they help?

Agreed, having had the A3 colour laser this is the much better solution to the issue they are a pain and you will want top quality colour so will never please marketing types with anything sensibly priced.

When you are unable to get redundant / reliable internet connections and given probably 90% of email is internal if not more it makes sense to have it in-house. (yes we were bitten by a cloud email from the LA was ~3 years of chaos and removed it for in-house exchange and problems all went away and exchange is a good tool and looks after itself usually)

Do you not have a texting service? Most of them offer email messaging as well I know ours did.

Must admit I have always liked WinRAR over others but 7-zip being free makes it hard to justify the costs in education.

Love my WP, then again I have had WP and WM devices for years so kind of brought up and learnt them. If you are like me and live in a MS ecosystem then its perfect, it has my Xbox, Music, Email, Voice etc.. all integral

Fraid you won't get anything that suits all that for that money, even the Unifi kit isn't anywhere near that price. Stick another 0 on it and you will be talking options.

That could be interesting - Harrow: A Very British School - Sky1 HD a comparison of a very expensive private fee paying establishment VS the local comprehensive. I expect @Little-Miss has been to Harrow given her future virtual husband (once he is painted Purple and dyed his hair purple) attended it.

Sounds like a HT I had, we were not allowed to tell staff how to setup mobile devices with the Exchange server as they will work 24x7 and the Unions will not agree or like it.... Needless to say a lot sussed it out or asked questions about server names which we happily answered and pointed them to Google "how to setup Exchange on my *insert popular phone OS* and they usually sussed it out Logon hours will be your friend but suspect the HT will soon get shouted at by staff for them as some staff like to run at 3:30 to pickup offspring and then when they are in bed at say 7pm they do a few hours work then rather than stay a few hours at the end of the day so think carefully about them as it will affect anything that needs them to logon.

Must admit I do like that and the one that is I hate maths and the teacher yes Maths hates you as well

@michael2k6 can probably tell you more as he knows a lot about that place.....

For those bashing Yorkshire, I am sure that @timbo343 and @tom_newton will join me in burning you at the stake we are not that backwards in Yorkshire Smoothwall is a Yorkshire company so that says how up to date we are It is Sky+ HD'd (to see that girl in the advert who shaved off her eyebrows and drew them back on's fake orange glow in true glow style LOL)

Use a dual head graphics card instead of a splitter then you can do Split or Clone on the screens?

Or just wait till everyone else is past there best and off you go dance away and no-one remembers Oh wait they did and have videos

Wasn't this a CS6 "bug" mentioned on here before? I know that I deployed CS5 Master without issues but I did use the Adobe admin tools to create our own version and it never had any SN issues.
