Having issues getting files to load from Teams and office.com sometimes says page cannot be displayed and other times loads.

Airplay will drop out if there is not sufficient bandwidth or latency gets too bad, could it be weak wireless signal, congestion or interference in the area they are teaching with the iPad? I don't have any AirServer experiences as we have an Apple TV in every classroom.

My daily driver a Citroen C6 , less than 500 on the UK roads, and less than 1000 sold in the UK, very quirky, love driving it and you never see another one on the road. I've had people knock on my door to ask about it and stopped on car parks by people to chat about the car. Since around 2016 had about £20,000 in servicing and repairs, so don't buy one unless you can stomach the bills. Had the injectors go once £300 an injector, V6 engine, so that was £1800 before labour. If the exhaust ever needs replacing I might say goodbye, it has 2 cats, 1 dpf plus the pipe from the engine, Citroen don't sell them individually just the whole lot as a kit and it's £3500. I did until 2 years ago have a Citroen Xantia Activa which was a special version of the Xantia and added extra bits onto its Hydroactive suspension. It could corner completely flat which made for fun driving, especially large roundabouts, if the car detected more than 0.5% body roll these hydraulic jacks would lock the anti-roll bar to stop it rolling further. They sold around 1000 total in the UK and less than 20 now registered on the roads. I've owned 3 of these in my life, I do miss it still but I had 4 cars and parts were getting impossible for the car so its the one I said good bye to.

I run the following bash script as a startup script in our labs to delete all local profiles except our local admin one on boot. sudo /usr/bin/defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow PasswordExpirationDays 0Users_Array=( `ls /Users | grep -v Shared | grep -v localadmin` )for user in "${Users_Array[@]}"do if [ "${user}" == "${User_Name}" ]; then echo "skip user ${user} as they are logged on." else dscl . -delete /Users/${user} rm -fR /Users/${user} fidone It keeps changing the code format when I paste it so attached a screenshot too.

Not sure how good it is, but you can get this for £169 https://www.richersounds.com/philips-32pfs6805.html (EASTER20 code + £10 off by joining VIP Club)

Download PDF Education Price List I use KRCS Price List as my guide when pricing up Apple kit.

We have Lightspeed, 1:1 iPads, and use it for offsite monitoring, we don't have an onsite relay, we use only the cloud one. It does and has alerted us. Just a few Friday evenings ago we had a kid searching for how to die painlessly, we got the alert. I get a lot of false positives too such as kids searching for call of duty and the image of the guns or knifes being an alert.

Just use OneDrive with known folder move so it also backs up the Desktop and Documents folder, then use an Apple ID to backup other things like Keychains, Safari Favorites, Notes.

Wow, I'm surprised at how many still have supply staff, we have not had supply staff for over 15 years. We just have 3 'Cover Supervisors' who cover lessons to stabilise the wage bill and do other tasks when not needed for cover.

If you have an iPhone, just download the Configurator app load it when the Mac is on the choose language screen in the out of box experiment and hold the iPhone near the Mac, scan the strange QR floaty cloud thing and sign in with your DEP details and done it it is then in Apple School Manager and you can assign it to an MDM.

iSAMS integrates with School Clouds Parents Evening extremely well, you can set it to use the iSAMS Parent Portal/iParent App logins so parents don't have yet another login for another service, just the 1 login managed with iSAMS. Cover is the only area we think SIMS did a better job its a bit more cumbersome in iSAMS, but still works. Other than that very happy with iSAMS, report writing is much better can even tell you who has started writing the reports and what percentage they have done then its easy to batch print or upload as a PDF to the portals and apps for both students and parents. The exam officer loves iSAMS compared to SIMS, says its way easier and quicker. The task of getting the new timetable and kids into the lessons has gone down from a 2 week job to 3 days since we switched. The Helpdesk can occasionally be annoying if you get somebody who does not seem to understand the issue.

This is exactly how it should be. When I was at primary school in the late 80s/early 90s we did not have Microsoft Word on the computers, we had Word Star, and the one Windows 3.0 computer had Word Perfect Works, i did not get exposed to Microsoft Word 6 and Word 97 until later years of high school. I should be taught Word Processing, not Microsoft Word and the skillset being taught at school level should be mostly transferable between different Word Processing packages, same with Spreadsheets. Anything more than that should be trained by the employer for the specific needs and applications used.

I'm surprised at how many seem to be only just hearing about the Digital Pound. Rishi announced it a year ago here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyWhjfRMwyI and lots were saying they were coming before that but generally got brushed off as crazy conspiracy theorists because they said programable money would be used to control the population. Once you have a Digital ID and a Digital Pound, things could dangerous with regard to your freedoms.

Do all the shares on OURSERVER01 end in $ ? If so thats why its blank when you click the server in the left bar.

Yes, tried it on a 2014 iMac to go from Big Sur to Monterey, worked fine.

Dumped SIMS and went to iSAMS 6 years ago and we are much happier. The only part that for us SIMS did better was Cover. We do things that were not even possible in SIMS, it was holding us back.

I'm guessing it will have a folder called 2023 so just change the script to be file:///Volumes/2023/$USER

So if you open up terminal and type 'cd /Volumes' then ls to list contents, does it have a folder listed as the username? and if you look inside it does it have the users home folder contents?

Yes it is possible we do this (along with redirecting the Desktop, Documents etc to the users AD Home folder) but its all scripting. I'm guessing the users home folder is listed in /Volumes once logged in? If so if you were deploy a utility called mysides you could then have a login script to add it to finder. I think this script would be enough to make it work. /usr/local/bin/mysides add Home file:///Volumes/$USER touch /Users/$loggedInUser/.sidebarshortcuts killall cfprefsd

I would just get some iPad 9th Gen's which with edu discount and without VAT would be around £270 and put them into single app mode with an MDM.

I managed to get in using the later invite link in the thread.

I do have some CC3 add-on discs, like the RM CC3 installer package for Office XP. Just tried the discord link and it says invalid invite.

Does it work with Managed Apple ID's yet? Last time we tried as we are all Mac here that feature would not work with them
