We have a student with very poor eyesight. She has her own iPad which she typically uses, but there are occasions when she'd like to use a computer. All we need to do according to her is make the mouse cursor a lot larger. Obviously being a student, all the settings are tied down. We don't use roaming profiles, but am happy to set her up one if necessary. Anyone else got a similar situation? How have you managed to change some of the settings for an individual?

Recently got a Ring doorbell. Woke up to this notification. I live in a small town in Suffolk.

If you do go down the route of a separate firewall, speak to @Net-Ctrl. They're brilliant, and won't oversell you a device you don't need.

We are moving (today!) from Iris BioStore to Civica. When we got our quotes through, Civica were happy to use our existing tills. CRB weren't and quoted literally £000s more as they were selling us the hardware too.

Wavenet. DM me if you want and I'll give you my contacts email address.

LGfL - They are brilliant. Very helpful and knowledgeable when needed, and the amount of add-ons they give you for free save you money elsewhere. We have RedStor backups with them which backup our onsite stuff and M365 tenancy, so no need to purchase additional software, they also include a decent level of Sophos, so no need to pay for AV. And there's loads of other stuff too.

We are seeing an increasing number of people here who try and load sites, typically Microsoft ones like OneDrive, Mail, etc., where the page never gets around to actually loading in Google Chrome, but it loads fine in Edge. No errors, just sits there circling. The version of Chrome hasn't changed recently. Anyone else seeing this? LGfL with Netsweeper.

FTFY

Thanks for this. That's given me the data I need, however I want it in a format I can then manipulate. I've tried converting the PDF to Word, Excel and TXT and on all of those it removes the actual class name and just has the teacher and students. Any ideas anyone?

I'm after a report from Arbor which will give me all the year 10 lessons, which teachers teach them, and which students are in them. I am relatively new to Arbor and can't figure out how to do it and Arbor's latest response to my ticket was "It is actually a bit of a tricky one to get a report to show every lesson and every student." and then a link to their feedback pages. Anyone know if there is a way to do it? It feels like it should be possible to get a lesson per page in some sort of format..... Stuart

Happens more than you'd think;

A priest, a pastor, and a rabbit entered a clinic to donate blood. The nurse asked the rabbit: “What’s your blood type?” “I’m probably a type O,” said the rabbit.

Where did it come from? An individual or a company?

Just been told by Iris that it can't talk to Arbor's payment system. We want people to top up dinner money via Arbor and go in to our Iris/BioStore school dinner system. Is that correct?

A school I worked at many years ago was constantly being edited. At one point there was never anything available for school dinners because the fat head teacher would eat it all, and we were running a brothel onsite.

This does not surprise me at all from this company. While we were with them it was quite scary at times the information they couldn't lay their hands on. I recommend complaining about them to BESA. We did on one occasion and suddenly things started happening.

Working here again. I'm not telling anyone yet though just in case!

Worth trying a different browser?

The Impero client is still blocking things, which is something at least!

I've seen this and I think it's when the new post is on a new page, but there are still posts on the page it takes you to which you haven't read? But yes, it takes you to the top of the page.

Do you have an onsite Firewall? Sounds like the Impero traffic is allowed on your wired VLAN but not the wireless VLAN.

Talkstraight and NetSweeper you can simply turn on the PROXY server and it filters, however you also need to make sure you include something that means the user can't simply turn the PROXY back off! We're with LGFL and install the "HomeProtect" client.

I thought asking for credentials was the default. Sounds like yours is setup to auto put them in?
