Don't know whether this will help or not as I don't know how ADFS impacts on everything. You could try installing KB2817574 (Description of the Outlook 2010 hotfix package (Outlook-x-none.msp): August 13, 2013) and see if that helps, it certainly helped a lot of our connection issues.

Thanks both, I've managed to get that sorted now. It does seem odd considering DirSync can manage everything else without a hitch. The only thing I've spotted is I can't alter the onmicrosoft.com domain now to reflect the change as I still redirect from our old webmail up their just in case but I'll work around that somehow. (Well I can get the new one on there, but can't remove the old one). Cheers again both!

That's worth knowing as I was thinking of doing something similar.... Cheers for the update

Hi James Yes, I've altered everything from, for example joe.bloggs to james.bloggs in both the samaccountname and the UPN field.

As nephilim says, it varies. The Nexus 7 the last time I enquired about tablets, for over a certain quantity you had to contact Asus directly. There is no such scheme for the Nexus 10 made by Samsung. We've bought a Nexus 10 on a credit card and then asked Google to send us a VAT receipt for it which then kept everybody happy, but that probably doesn't help you without a credit card.... Don't know whether this helps (most of the answer I got from Google) They did suggest possibly trying a preloaded credit card when we were speaking on the phone, however the google play faq seems to suggest that wouldn't work. It would be worth giving them a call, the Google Play team are very helpfull.

Afternoon all Having got into the swing of thigns with Office 365, I've now hit a stumbling block. I've had to rename 2 users in Active Directory which has all gone fine and dandy, dirsync has picked up the new email address, new display name and everything except the new username. Is there something I'm doing wrong in order to rename the user in Office 365 or can anyone point me in the powershell direction in order to be able to change it? Thanks

Hi I'm just after opinions on the Epson WorkForce WF-7515 printer if anyone has any? To be fair, it seems to be an incredibly cheap A3 printer which is what we are after at the moment to replace a slowly dieing eldery HP CP1700, and with it having an A3 scanner too that would be an added bonus. My primary concern however is will it work ok through a print server and that's where any advice would be appreciated. Cheers

Don't know whether it's the same, but we had an issue with Nova-T6 displaying the date in american format despite being set to UK. The fix was to change the Windows language/regional settings to US, closing the dialogs, go back in and reset to UK. Might be worth a shot?

I'm guessing that the AM & PM haven't been put in before the correct sessions in the Lesson Monitor Setup section (Tools -> Setups -> Lesson Monitor Setup/Options from memory). Be the first place to look for me

It may well do, I really can't remember sorry. It's a while since I've ventured outside of Create and Update.

How about ticking the box which removes the shortcut if it no longer applies on the shortcuts which aren't site wide? (Can't remember the exact wording, but from memory alters it from Create to Replace) Might meet what your after without altering things too much?

I actually found in the last couple of machines with this issue, replacing the DVD drive made a difference. Not sure why, but it did. If you have one machine that works and one that doesn't, may be a quick way of testing by swapping the drives over.

Have a look through this leaflet and perhaps send it on http://www.oft.gov.uk/shared_oft/business_leaflets/general/oft913.pdf Or take a glance through all the guidance and see if there is anything else Distance Selling hub

Have to say, I'm slightly disappointed that there is no video today!

I tend to tag patch cables onto a CPC order if I'm after any at any time. RJ45 Patch Leads - Cat6 | CPC | Results I've tried to tidy our cabinets at one point, however I spent 2 days on one once and it didn't look any better at the end of it because the actual cabinet is so damn small!

Why not follow the process in the Filtering by Attribute? It's still not a delete button, but might be easier for you then reorganising your directory if you want? Our mailboxes certainly aren't automatically created for users, after a user is synced using dirsync I have to go to the portal and Activated it and asign a licence - are you sure you don't have a script running to do this? (I'm looking at a script, however alter the User's domain within the portal so do that all manually currently which with the bulk editing/activating isn't as onerous as it sounds, but is still a pain.) If you just want to remove the mailbox from the user, why not try just removing their licence for Exchange?

So who's on version 7? I was thinking about upgrading last week but backed out of it in the end to focus on something else. Just wondering if there's any gotcha's or what the increased compression/deduplication was like if anyone configured it?

Do what @EduTech says and then they can either click on their name and open another mailbox, or if they just need to view the mail folders and not contacts in the OWA you can right click on their name and Add a Shared folder so that the folder tree for the Head's account is always just available within the single view (-this is how I've gone with my group mailboxes for those users who have them)

I have 4200's working and downloaded the driver from the Microsoft Update catalog (Microsoft Update Catalog) - might be worth a look to see if you can find a better one in there?

Like @splatthecat says, Solus3 doesn't update the setups directory so that way of working won't get you sorted anymore. 2 questions - when you say they won't upgrade over Solus3, have you redeployed the update to the failed workstations from the deployment history screen? do you get any error message when it tries to deploy? If you want a quickish fix to bypass the current Solus3 issue, copy the SIMS directory from a working machine to the machine which is failing to update and that will get SIMS working on it.

Never mind, the protal has been updated now I see....

Is anybody else having problems with Office 365 this morning? Outlook won't open on any computer which isn't operating in cached mode, OWA is being very slow and when Outlook does eventually load up it keeps disconnecting and isn't updating folders correctly? I've tested another user's password and my admin account and they both seem to be working ok, but otherwise I can't test any further at the moment. I have a Service Request open with Microsoft at the moment however all I've been sent is the testexchangeconnectivity.com link which also seems to be broken.

Got my bottle opener today too. Thanks @VeryPC Going to stick it on my desk and see how long before someone work's out what it's for and supplies me with the required bottles to test with! (after experimenting and a thorough testing this week of course!)

I spotted this and tried to find out more information behind it, such as how the schools were selected, what is it actually doing and what not but couldn't find any details anyway. Also spotted it mentions State schools, so I'm assuming that means academies will be excluded from it, so I'm still not sure.

That's the bit I can't remember how you configure it - do you configure FMS-companies.ini and somehow alter your fmsconnect.ini? I don't think Solus3 has the ability to distribute the companies.ini (but after it's been configured on a workstation once you shouldn't need to configure it anymore anyway hopefully...)
