Hi All Just after a bit of advice. I've been asked to look into using Chromebooks within our Windows Domain. I've read the literature on setting SSO up on Azure. My question is, what sort of Google workspace license would we need to manage the chromebooks. I presume the free version wouldn't cover this? Thanks in advance

We have a new ICT Head of department. Our existing software is quite dated. Acid music 7, a really old version of game maker. After speaking to her today we need to look at alternatives. Just wondering what other schools use to teach lower school ICT?

Were you able to move the documents stored against learner easily?? Did they have to be manually saved???

Hi all We are considering switching to a new MIS. We are currently using Progresso. We are trying to work out how we move documents stored against a learners record. Have any of you guys been through this process. Thanks in advance

Need to buy a laptop charging 15x bay locker for our library to loan HP laptops out to students. Any recommendations??? I've dealt with lapsafe before, they seem a bit on the expensive side. Thanks in advanced Jaimie

Hi I've just started to look at setting up student advantage office 365. I was going to use Windows azure directory sync to synchronise all our AD username and passwords. I've just contacted the company that we purchased our Microsoft school agreement with, asking how much It would cost to add Windows azure to our existing agreement. They tell me this can't be added. She says "If the school require this there is a minimum purchase value of £12,000 for the product and then Microsoft will allow you to purchase this product". I'm missing the point somewhere. How have your schools setup office 365 student advantage. Or how have you sync AD to office 365. Thanks in Advance Jamie

I'll have a look and try in the morning thanks

Hi All Over the summer I installed the lasts bios firmware to a number of HP laptops. Since then staff have complained of the system slowing down to a crawl. To the point of hitting a key takes a few seconds for the letter to appear. In the event logs a Kernel-processor power warning event 37 shows up The speed of processor 1 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware. The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 71 seconds since the last report. I've changed a number of the advanced power options, which has improved the problem, but staff still report the computers are slower than they were before the bios upgrade. Has anyone had similar issues???????? The Machines are HP probook 6470b and 6360b. Windows 7 x64. Hp Bios Version F42 Thanks in advance Jaimie

I used to use a mac mini to configure 30 ipads. Now i use Cisco Meraki - Cloud Managed Networks that Simply Work. It's free and means i don't have to drag all the ipads back to the mac as meraki works in the cloud. Loads easier. Regards J

Hi I know this is a very long shot. Would any of you guys have the install files for an old version of Integris. It used to run from Omnis.exe and was installed in a folder called "keys". Thanks in advance Jamie

Anybody used any decent apps to rdp an iPad to Windows TS session. Started to play around with a few. I've set apple configurator up, to tie the settings down on the iPads. Would ideally like an app which only gives them an option to connect. So i don't keep having to continually keep setting them up after their little fingers have been playing Thanks Jaimie

Hi We use OWA for out students to use email within school. We would like to turn off the out of office replies. Do any of you know if it is possible to do this by group policy, or from within exchange which is 2003 SP2. Thanks in advance
