Not to jinx anything but we haven't had any issues this week, all shared iPads have been logging on fine had no reply from apple or any update about whether they have actually fixed something but all seems good right now how about everyone else?

Fingers crossed we have almost 500 of them so we are properly having a nightmare with it. I would agree it’s almost like sometimes the traffic hits the right server on apples side sometimes it hits one that isn’t working properly. We had recently implemented MFA for students here so assumed that was causing it but after turning it off it’s still happening. Just glad it’s not just us at this point

Exact same issue! So glad to find this post I have been tearing my hair out it seems completely random it doesn’t work give it a few attempts sometimes works sometimes never works switching ssid seems to work initially then it stops working on that ssid I managed to find a support number for apple business and education today and they are collect logs from some iPads just hoping they come back with something because we are out of ideas if I hear anything I will let you know asap!

Not sure what subject to put this under or weather anyone is as daft as us to use Shares iPads, but we have been having issues with people not being able to login error just says “unknown error occurred” wondering if anyone has ran into something similar? We are running out of ideas apart from just blaming Apple

On the new question set Q6.2 is "Is all the software on your devices supported by a supplier that produces regular vulnerability fixes for any security problems?" And i don't think Orato has had an update or has been supported for a long time

Hi guys just looking for some recommendations for some computer reader software as we are having to move away from Orato as it doesn't meet CE requirements any suggestions would be greatly appreciated cheers

We send out our config file and logo via GPO and when upgrading the settings are lost after the initial install then on the next reboot the config file and the logo are copied back over to the local location and then it works as we want it

We are looking into intune MDM for our iPads but ours are shared ipads and we are having massive issues when testing apps not installing setup taking a lot longer than JAMF just wondered is everyone who vouched for intune using iPads 1 to 1 or as shared iPads? Any tips would be appreciated

Haven't deployed it but have been testing it with an image seems fine being able to uninstall windows apps via GPO is pretty good also

Hi All looking for some guidance and advise with Cyber Essentials moving to trusted devices rather than trusted IPs we are struggling to figure out how we are going to get the iPads to work with it other than forcing the students use there MFA when they sign in we use Jamf at the minute as our MDM but really don't want to change to Intune as I can't imagine its as good and quick as Jamf

We had something which sounds the same when we deployed a C++ distributable via group policy had loads of errors in event viewer

Caching server 100% the way to go was a really simple implementation for us helped a lot with the iPads

Same for us I have put a ticket in to Microsoft

We've two DCs on 2019 and One on 2022 and have noticed over the past couple weeks we've had a few devices do the same thing

Cheers we don't use sccm and all the adobe suggested update deployments dont seem to work very well but thanks gives us something to go at

Cheers you are similar size to us thought the solution maybe be within our package settings will have to give auto updates a try and see how it goes

Hi All just looking for advice and guidance how do you all do creative cloud and adobe app updates ours don't seem to update automatically and when we update manually if we kick and group of a lot of them going at once (20+) it tanks our internet and takes all our bandwidth

You'd have to use it with something like the below to change the modify date $Dat = Get-Item "$Path\$UserName\NTUSer.dat" -force $DatTime = $Dat.LastWriteTime

Had exactly the same issue only thing we've done is restart the PC would have to think its a windows issue that "should" get fixed in an update

Havent used it in a while and is vbs so is probably is a better way of doing it Set objNetwork = CreateObject("Wscript.Network") Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") sfile = "c:\SystemScripting\laptop.txt"sComputer = objNetwork.computername sUser = lcase(objNetwork.UserName)If objFSO.FileExists("\\bla\NETLOGON\Local SystemScripting\ServerAvailable.txt") Then Do Until NOT objFSO.FileExists (sfile) objFSO.DeleteFile sfile, TRUE Loop Set objFile = objFSO.GetFile(sfile) objFSO.CreateTextFile sfile, True Do Until objFSO.FileExists (sfile) Loop Wscript.QuitElse Set objFile = objFSO.GetFile(sfile)End If Basically it looks for a network file and if it can see the network file it has network connection and creates a text file to be used for later checks if there's no connection it tries to delete the text file from previous logons so it shows its no connection.

Not sure how you do logons but we had a script at logon which detected if they are connected to the network you could do that and have the drives delete if they aren't connected

Try the built in google speed test see what that says

Trying to allow students to login to there papercut whilst on there exam account so they can print but when they login for some reasons it doesn't pull through the shared account of the papercut user Doesn't make much sense to me anyone any ideas?

Might just be me can get out fine with VPN on and can get to google when using google dns but cant get out to anything else or anything at all using plusnet DNS
