Access other mailboxes on Office 365 OWA
DJ-1701 replied to cannonballcoops1987's topic in Cloud Services
Is this the OWA mobile app? As this has been retired, which may explain it. https://support.office.com/en-us/article/microsoft-owa-mobile-apps-are-being-retired-076ec122-4576-4900-bc26-937f84d25a4b They suggest using the Outlook mobile app now, but items like shared mailboxes will not be available until the end of 2018. -
If you scroll down on this page, it should give you the list of names. https://www.windowscentral.com/how-hide-settings-pages-windows-10-creators-update

This, is one of the biggest Windows 10 pains, as it can only be controlled via Local Machine. To get around this limitation, what I did was set a registry key that gets applied from Group Policy Preferences with just the pages I wanted them to have access to and set it to always apply. Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer Value Name: SettingsPageVisibility Value Type: REG_SZ Value Setting: ShowOnly:printers;datausage;personalization-start;network-wifisettings;network-wifi When admins login, I set a GPP to delete the key in case we need to change settings.

OVS-ES is just EES for less than 500 staff. Education Edition is a new standard since Windows 10, so Windows 7 and Windows XP would not have had the same level, it would have just been Professional, though you would be in your rights to upgrade to Education, at present time there doesn't seem to be a difference between Education or Enterprise on a feature level. Office still has a PC based installation, and really Office 365 for PC is a modded version of Office 2016. No sign of Office being cloud only yet.
-
You can still use Office 2016, but to be honest with you, if you have Office 365 accounts, you might as well install Office 365 on the PCs with Device Based Activation, it has much better handling of the Office 365 features. My understanding is you get upgrade rights, so, you don't have to upgrade at all if you don't want to... though I would upgrade to something other than XP. The license key for Windows 10 that we are provided works for Windows 10 Professional and Education. Though, Education has much greater control, like turning off those darn Windows Store suggestions, etc. So you might as well upgrade to Education.
-
Yes, you still require a valid windows license of some form on the device you are upgrading. As for the Education and Enterprise debate, I believe we are meant to go with Education, and that is what I am using. Though I don't think there is much/any difference between Education and Enterprise in the features anyway.

Was a place selected? Or a date?

AD Based Activation (ADBA) only works with Windows 8 and above, so it won't affect KMS settings you have for Windows 7 and Office 2013. Less of a headache, install and walk away.
-
I have to agree with @Liam, if all your machines are on the domain that need Office, then ADBA is a better way to activate it. Although... if you have Office 365 for the School, what would be even better is installing Office 365 (with device based activation) which provides better integration.
-
Unfortunately it is Onedrive.exe and not the old Groove.exe nor SkyDrive.exe.
-
Yeah, I deleted them after uninstall... not that there was much left in the folders. Might work for Katy though.
-
If it makes you feel any better, I have the same problem running this... doesn't seem to do anything, even when uninstalling and downloading the client from the web to reinstall.
-
I thought there were Klingons on the starboard bow, Jim.
-
Wait... for how long have you been able to rename a domain? I thought you had to setup a new domain and migrate using ADMT.
-
I hope so... it's been over 2 years.

OLD - Office 365 (Click To Run) - (407) Proxy Authentication Required Error
DJ-1701 posted a blog entry in DJ-1701's Blog
Please see: https://github.com/DJ-1701/407WorkAround for latest instructions. So, you've followed the instructions for deploying Office 365 Pro Plus with Device Based Activation... most likely from an online instruction, such as this awesome one… but, when you come to running the OPPTransition.exe you get a problem that looks a little like this one... C:\O365>OPPTransition.exe -Tenant TENANTUUID -Key KEYUUID -Domain contoso.onmicrosoft.com 00:00:00 | OPPTransition started - 1.1.12.95 00:00:00 | Reading arguments 00:00:01 | Args: -tenant TENANTUUID -domain contoso.onmicrosoft.com 00:00:01 | Args Valid 00:00:01 | Nonce: RANDOMTEXTHERE 00:00:01 | Start not logged 00:00:01 | One or more errors occurred. 00:00:01 | System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: An error occurred while sending the request. ---> System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required. at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetResponse(IAsyncResult asyncResult) at System.Net.Http.HttpClientHandler.GetResponseCallback(IAsyncResult ar) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Threading.Tasks.Task`1.GetResultCore(Boolean waitCompletionNotification) at OPP_Transition.HttpHelperClient.GetResponseWithStatus(String Uri, Status Status) ---> (Inner Exception #0) System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: An error occurred while sending the request. ---> System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required. at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetResponse(IAsyncResult asyncResult) at System.Net.Http.HttpClientHandler.GetResponseCallback(IAsyncResult ar) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---<--- 00:00:02 | PreflightCheck failed - wait: 505 The problem is that you're using an AD user based web filtering system, and the program is unable to transfer information about who is logged on to authenticate to the proxy server... So, how do you get around that? If you edit the Dot Net machine.config file (i.e. C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Config\machine.config) you can add a section in to place a proxy server that does not use AD based filtering. Before the </configuration> section, enter the following line, changing PROXYDETAILSHERE:PORT with your non AD user based web filtering system and proxy. <system.net><defaultProxy enabled="true" useDefaultCredentials="true"><proxy usesystemdefault="true" proxyaddress="PROXYDETAILSHERE:PORT" bypassonlocal="true"/></defaultProxy></system.net> Although, I find it's easier to do this in a script, and to reset it back afterwards (just in case). $OriginalData = Get-Content("C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Config\machine.config") $OriginalEnd = '</configuration>' $TempEnd = '<system.net><defaultProxy enabled="true" useDefaultCredentials="true"><proxy usesystemdefault="true" proxyaddress="[b]PROXYDETAILSHERE:PORT[/b]" bypassonlocal="true"/></defaultProxy></system.net></configuration>' $TempData = $OriginalData -replace $OriginalEnd,$TempEnd If ((Get-DAConnectionStatus).Status -ne "ConnectedRemotely") { If (!($OriginalData -like "*proxyaddress=*")) { If ($OriginalData -like "</configuration>") { Set-Content -Path "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Config\machine.config" -Value $TempData } } } .\OPPTransition.exe -Tenant [b]TENANTUUID[/b] -Key [b]KEYUUID[/b] -Domain [b]DOMAIN[/b] Set-Content -Path "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Config\machine.config" -Value $OriginalData -
At the Primary, we used to have it with RM/SWGfL, and transferred over to EXA when changing ISP. My understanding is that any registrar should be able to look after the name for you, but generally we keep this with the ISP we are transferring to so any changes that we make should in theory happen quicker internally than waiting for DNS replication with NS on the net.
-
I must admit, I would be interested in that as well... but... I cheat and use the non https filtering proxy provided by Exa. Note: This can be found by logging into the SurfProtect Panel webpage, and clicking Home at the top of the page, and look for the information about Basic HTTP filtering with no SSO. Please also note that the port used is 3128, although this may not be stated.

Just been to our Maplin. They got rid of the 50% off all stock and replaced it with Last Few Days, so makes it sound closure is nearly here. They still have the up to 80% off sign of course.

[movie trailer] Avengers: Infinity War Official Trailer

Apparently it can depend on the pitch... all I know is, he's called The Stig.
-
At out local one, items are 50% off, and up to 80% off at the moment. About a week after they started the closing down sale, they reduced their opening hours to 6pm on the weekday... it's amazing the amount of people that still turn up and try to go in there after 6pm... and sometimes after 7pm...

[ms office - 2016] Outlook 2016 not showing Encypt template from Outlook 365
DJ-1701 replied to DJ-1701's topic in Office Software
After @Cache pointed me down the right path of using C2R last night with the data in the uservoice link, I looked at any other threads on here about C2R activation, and found one. After a brief question @KevinB gave me a pointer to a wonderful guide for machine based activation (here's hoping they sort the SKU out of you soon). Thank you all for your help. -
The media Mac's here have had keyboards and mice damaged... at least those can be replaced at a lesser cost... I dread to think how much it would cost to repair MacBooks… especially if they are treated with the same disrespect of our Windows laptops.
