  1. Just found the Conditional Access section in Azure AD, need Azure AD Premium to use it Now there's an idea! Definitely a simple solution (which is always a big plus in my book).
  2. So I have just enabled 2FA on our global O365 admin account however this provides a bit of a logistical issue. All of the 2FA options appear to assume only one person is in charge of this account i.e. texting / calling a number or using the app, however there are 3 of us that use this account when we need higher privileges than our standard accounts. The code is currently set to be sent to my mobile but this is of no use to the others unless I am in the office at the same time or am able to promptly forward the message on. I did note the ability to call the schools number but this would get the call as far as reception and not to our office and I'm not sure how it will respond to being redirected to our extension (we don't have a direct number), although something I may now enquire about. I know that I could elevate all 3 of our accounts to be global admins but I am not stuck on the idea of doing this. Is it possible to create a Security & Compliance rule for the Global Admin to not require 2FA if the request is coming from our Office? How do the rest of you that work in teams do it?
  3. PRS and PPL should cover it provided they were provided with the correct information of intended use and applicable licence types have been granted.
  4. I suspect that there will be some better bundles if not a bigger price drop in the January sales. That is what I'm waiting for as I'm happy enough with my day one Xbox.
  5. Yes, at present they use iMovie for the editing and add chapter markers into the video(s). When bringing this into iDVD it automatically creates chapters for the DVD based on these markers and creates the menu structure for it too.
  6. Thanks for the advice regarding the password @Joanne and @Brimstone Looks like the Mac upgrade it is a non starter unless I find a suitable alternative for iDVD. At least I can unlock the Mac settings now though!
  7. No problems here with my Suzuki SV 650s even at the traffic lights; in the wind yesterday. And I only weigh just under 10st.
  8. I have recently had a request from a member of staff who uses an iPad as they have VI issues, they also have a Mac for video editing for their subject. Both devices were purchased and setup before I started here so until now I have left well alone as each device seemed to be doing their individual role quite nicely. The member of staff concerned would now like to be able to transfer text and other session content (and possibly video files) between the two devices, after a little investigation I believe they are referring to Handoff and Universal Clipboard. As I understand it Handoff requires iOS 8 or later and OS X Yosemite or later and Universal Clipboard requires iOS 10 or later and macOS Sierra or later. I believe the iPad is setup with an iTunes account associated with their school email address and is currently running iOS 10 (so far so good). The Mac on the other hand does not have an Apple ID associated with it and therefore is stuck on Leopard 10.5 or Snow Leopard 10.6, I have no idea how far it can be upgraded (I believe the Mac is circa 2012, but can't be sure). What's more the Mac appears to have had an administrator account set on it locking out most of the settings, this password has not been documented so it looks like we will have to factory reset the Mac anyway. The Mac is used predominantly for iMovie and iDVD so whatever we do can't interfere with this, I know that iDVD has long been removed from Mac OS but I assume upgrading will leave the application in tact? I know that in order for Handoff and Universal Clipboard to work both devices need to be using the same Apple ID. Should I just keep it simple and setup two accounts on the Mac, an admin one with an Apple ID controlled by us, and another for the member of staff on their ID? Or should I really be looking into using an MDM (we signed up to Meraki whilst it was still free), we do have a handful of other macs around school for very specific tasks but again they aren't managed. We don't have any other management software like Configurator nor are we signed up to DEP or Apple School Manager as it stands, I'm not sure if the effort involved in doing this outweighs the gains but I would like to do small project like this to actually start getting an understanding of Apple in education having never being involved with it in the past. Any thoughts welcome!

  10. Vettel came back out of the pits a few seconds off the back markers (he actually got into the pits before the Saubers crossed the start / finish line!) and got pretty punchy as he had nothing to lose. Hamilton came out a further 26 seconds back from Vettel once he left the pits and was understandably being cautious with some of the more unpredictable drivers. Hamilton was actually faster than Vettel from laps 5-17 (https://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2017/10/29/2017-mexican-grand-prix-interactive-lap-times-and-fastest-laps/) Not a fan of either, looking forward to what Alonso can do with a remotely competitive engine in his donkey for next season.
  11. I would say that the limit is just that, sometimes the road layout or other hazards dictate a lower speed. If your continue to do the speed limit just because, it would be perfectly plausible to be failed on that.
  12. What version of the build disk are you using? If it is WinPE 2.0 then this is based on Vista and not Windows 7, RM do not recommend using this image for builds anymore. You should be using the WinPE 3.1 image for Windows 7 builds.
  13. And there was me thinking that our rules in Smotthwall were broken and was about to open a call with them about it. We don't even use SafetyNet and just use RM as an ISP, no idea as to the logic that would result in this change being applied on all connections.
  14. I was looking into this the other week and the M3 application was the only reputable product that would actually be easy enough for people to use, that I could find.
  15. Regarding the engine stalling do you have an automatic or manual choke? My first bike had a manual and if you left the choke on for too long it would stall once everything was up to temperature, if you were too quick to take it off you would find it would stall if you let the engine idle.
  16. I don't know much about the legitimacy of what can be asked in FOI requests but questions 3-5 & 7-13 feel like it is beyond the scope of FOI requests (particularly by breaking down by gender).
  17. Same here, they have been relentlessly calling since the Summer; I lost my patience this week and politely told them get lost as they will never get my business with this sort of approach.

    And then wait for that version to be listed in the sales about two months later.
  19. Probably worth making sure that your RDS server is set to disable client redirection.
  20. Amplifier are just one of those bands that appear destined to always be on the periphery, although I suspect that they quite like it that way. Saw them a few years back and they were just mingling with everyone whilst the support act was playing, they really are just normal people doing what they love to do despite everything. I was / am a big fan of all the bands listed. I remember Stone Temple Pilots being criticised for being an Alice in Chains rip off in the 90's, to me that was like criticising Ford for making the front of the Fiesta and Focus look a bit like an Aston Martin!
  21. "If your favourite bands were Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Stone Temple Pilots and Pearl Jam, then you are about to require a sedative." This is the tagline for Dead Blonde Stars new(ish) EP Resolution. I have to say on first listen it is scary how much the vocals resemble the late Chris Cornell, but they are far from a cheap imitation. Judge for yourself; you can listen to and buy Resolution on a name your price basis here: https://www.rockosmos.com/dead-blonde-stars Although not Grunge checkout the truly awesome new album by Amplifier - Trippin' With Dr Faustus on the same site. They kindly gave me a free download for the Dead Blonde Stars EP when I brought TWDF on vinyl. It is easily their best album since The Octopus was released in 2011 and well worth a listen. Edit: I'm in now way affiliated with either band.
  22. Thanks for the contributions so far. I have a follow up meeting early next week so please keep the advice coming in, it has all been very helpful!
  23. Going back to a point I raised earlier that got lost in everything else. How do you all go about getting pictures of activities efficiently Tweeted? At the moment we would have to take them on the school camera, copy onto the network, then Tweet from the computer. I fear that this would be far too long winded for anyone to bother with long term. There was a mention of using personal phones with the Twitter account to achieve this, something which I immediately objected to for obvious reasons. It did get me thinking though, do others have a shared mobile device with Twitter on it to achieve this?
  24. They are seeing Twitter as a vehicle to drive more traffic to our website. Things like X, Y or Z was going on in school today. Read more about it here: The ultimate aim is to generate awareness amongst the parents of the large array of things going on in the school. Teenagers aren't necessarily the best conveyors of information and we very much live in a world where people expect the news to come to them, rather than the other way around. I don't think we would want to be dealing with questions via Social Media, that would be like opening Pandora's Box. In my mind communication would be one way only, (still lacking in fundamental knowledge) is this possible on Twitter? I presume this would remove the risk of your final point.
