  1. These weren't available earlier this morning but are now.
  2. Yes, we had it error when specifying the pack as well.
  3. We've always just used a registry file to point the machines at the gallery which we have on the public drive. That removes the need to install the gallery every time.
  4. There is a thread on here already. Has the server recently installed the January updates? MS has issued a fix for server 2012 now Windows Server 2012R2 - http://download.windowsupdate.com/c/msdownload/update/software/updt/2022/01/windows8.1-kb5010794-x64_3b350eb34833c9a3ac71d973db3fd8ae86a6b220.msu
  5. We were getting 9th Gen Ipads sent for most of our orders so can't be that.
  6. We use the STM Dux cases, normally pay £20 per case and think that's pretty reasonable for the protection they off us.
  7. If those users have shared files with you, wouldn't they appear in your drive? Or are they members of the same drive as you?
  8. Bit more info here on new upcoming devices. https://www.theverge.com/2022/1/18/22889184/windows-11-se-laptops-acer-asus-dell-hp-lenovo-education-schools
  9. We normally buy our Office Staff 24" Dell ultrasharps and some users have these as well Dell Dual Monitor Stand – MDS19. I'm starting to look at the Curved Monitors as well as the price point is dropping.
  10. I'm a big fan of the Dell / Ergotron kit as the users don't see any cables when you match the docking kit to the devices. https://youtu.be/KNx2lL1qkJs
  11. Can you physically look at the containers to see?
  12. I'd guess as the toners empty the level goes down so they run out of toner, and as the maintenance box fills it would run out of capacity.
  13. Yes there is firmware download at the bottom of this page https://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.aspx?c=gb&lang=en&prod=dcpl3550cdw_eu&os=10013 Not sure whether it's just an update to the firmware tool itself though. Worth a look anyway.
  14. I'd guess at that price point and spec Windows 11 SE will give a better experience to the users as it's optimised for lower spec devices. Dell should have pricing for their 3120 soon an I know you previously mentioned the MS device was non touch screen. https://www.dell.com/en-uk/lp/windows-11#Windows-11-for-Education
  15. Looks like you can record Microsoft Teams meetings ok on the free EDU tier.
  16. Google may well push this date out again as it does look like there will be more home learning on the way ;-( Does anyone know if you can record for free in Teams?
  17. I've got the 12 and it's only really the Camera on the Pro I'd upgrade for. I'll see what the 14 offers next year TBH. Almost surprised they don't switch to a 2-year cycle as the differences recently have been pretty marginal. Storage bump was probably the most useful upgrade.
  18. Ipads are now back in stock for anyone that needs them.
  19. There's a small button to release the sliding doors on our units. You can only access it when you take the lid off. We have the units with the 48port switch so all are connected to power and network when docked.
  20. The advantage of the Dell solution is there are no power leads visible for the student. https://youtu.be/KNx2lL1qkJs?t=89 I think it's this one for the 3190 but the principles are the same. You dock the laptop in the cabinet with the power jack at the back, and they slot in. We have then for our 3340s Ergotron * Docking Kit (3180) for Dell Managed/Unmanaged Carts
  21. https://www.dell.com/en-uk/work/shop/dell-compact-charging-cart-36-devices-ct36u18/apd/210-awus/pc-accessories https://downloads.dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_electronics/esuprt_mobile_computing_cart/dell-compact-charging-cart-36-devices_user%27s-guide3_en-us.pdf
  22. I recently had a year 5 Pupil that tried to set up his own wifi hot spot to avoid the filtering. We've had year 4 pupils replace the proxy settings on Ipads etc (stopped that now)
  23. Ended up reinstalling the software.
  24. We just got hit with something very similar and had a few issues where the splash screen would comeup but then the software just closed. Machines are 20h2 with version of Smart Notebook from 19-21. Ended up reinstalling the software. Haven't seen it elsewhere you. I can only think of Windows Update causing this as it's been fine at tht sites for years.
