As someone who now has access to the Firewall that @KevinB above used to, it looks like 162.254.184.132 was the IP allowed through the Firewall.

They did the same to my Dad with a slightly different pitch of "Did you know a change in the law allows us to offer you broadband at a reduced rate compared to BT?" My Dad started to get swung by this until I stepped in, asking a bunch of questions the guy had vague answers to before telling them where they could go.

They've been reusing model numbers for a while. The OptiPlex 7010 could be the one released mid 2012 or the one released in April 2023. Who knows, it's a gamble.

...And it's fixed. Not by Microsoft I might add, just by waiting 5 days for it to re-provision itself. What a load of rubbish.

I knew I wouldn't get an answer for this. Currently with Microsoft trying to sort it out. The files are there, they just won't re-provision to the account.

Can I have a copy of the server files, then I can continue playing?

Oh, that'll be why I can't connect.

Having a bit of a panic attack while trying to sort this one. Renamed a user who either got married or divorced over the summer, and it's something I've done numerous times without issue but this time after the rename, they can't access their OneDrive and I get "Error trying to get OneDrive settings" if I try to access it via 365 admin. I've gone into SharePoint admin and verified that their personal folder still exists as far as that tells me but if I try to access the personal folder, I get "404 FILE NOT FOUND". I've tried renaming the user back but it's not changing the account name or personal site URL back and I've tried removing the OneDrive licence and adding it back in. Reason for the panic attack? We have no backups of any of our 365 tenant anymore. We did have Barracuda until January of this year where the trust stopped paying for it because it was deemed "too expensive" and there hasn't been any budget to buy any sort of replacement for it. We did also have access to our backup archive until yesterday when they'd sent an email informing us that we'd be losing it all. So you can imagine how I might be feeling right around now. 😢

Depends when they're added to your MIS and when the sync runs. We usually have to give it between 24 to 48 hours before they appear on ours.

Oh fun. Our trust had only just moved over to the complete Pebble solution since Cunninghams was a bit on the pricey side. I wonder what we'll end up with next?

We started off with a branch of Future Zone which back in the day, had the same vibe as Gamestations had. I felt like I was on first name terms with all the staff that worked there, plus the store manager was a family friend from years before. Then it became Electronics Boutique. The staff were there for a few more years until they started messing things up and the workers I knew had gone elsewhere. Then it became a Game and it just wasn't the same. Around that time, we also had a Gamestation open up and it felt just like the Future Zone we used to have. Always super busy as well compared to Game which was often almost empty. Then the inevitable happened and we lost our Gamestation and the really nice staff that worked there.

She was also the Pigeon lady in Home Alone 2 which I imagine a lot of people will know her primarily from that.

This is the same issue we've had, but for us it's duplicated Student records. It only started happening when someone from Inventry remoted in to fix missing Student records and it made things a lot worse. Unfortunately, they never did fix it and I know of no way to fix it myself.

It used to, then I changed the configuration of it and it doesn't anymore. We had an issue where 2 students weren't being synced across, so I contacted support to get them to rectify it. I ended up contacting them 4 times in all because they kept making it worse with each support call. Where we had 2 students not showing, we now have several not showing and many duplicates showing on the front screen. I can't now get that rectified as our support has lapsed and I can't get it renewed as our reseller seems to have fallen off the face of the earth. I want to ditch Inventry but there's no money to either.

Used to get that a lot with old cover disks/CDs where they'd give you the full version of a software product completely free, but print somewhere what it's normally worth i.e. £199.00. The original cost ended up being immaterial, especially as you'd load it up and see exactly why they were giving it away for free.
