Advice Needed: iTunes U Access Policies?

I am looking for some advice from other iTunes U universities on how your institution is handling some policies and procedures regarding iTunes U. We are having some difficulty resolving some issues between our Office of Legal Affairs and the Deans at our multiple colleges. I'm hoping some of the experiences at other iTunes U universities, may help us to move forward.
My first set of question is how are faculty being granted upload permission to iTunes U. Basically, are they having to sign some agreement or go through training before being allowed to upload to iTunes U? Are they allowed to upload directly to the public side or is that handled by a "gatekeeper?"
My second set of questions is about "gatekeeper" access for multiple colleges within a university. On our campus, we have a business school, a law school, an arts school, and so on. We want each college to have their own gatekeeper to oversee the content being posted on iTunes U for their school. Again, your gatekeeper having to sign some agreement or go through training before administering uploads to iTunes U. How are they being authorized access? LDAP? Blackboard? Other?
Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.

Thanks for your response.
So, am I to assume faculty are freely able to upload to the public side of iTunes U?

  • Role based provisioning - need help in access policies

    Hello experts,
    We have the following requirement
    1. If corresponding Role is not there then resource should not be allowed to get provisioned
    2. And whenever Role is present for the user then corresponding reource provisioning should get triggerred automatically ?
    Please advise whether the above could be achieved OOTB in OIM 11g ?

    1. After configuring the access policy still we could able to provision the resource manually without the role. How do we restrict it ? What needs to be done for that ?As far as I know there's no way to stop the administrator to go to the resource profile and manually assign the resource. May be you can try some authorization policies for that. But I am not sure.
    2. We have a scenario in which we are disabling a user. This will deprovsion a resource say Retail. Then we are enabling that user again. Then ideally it should provision a new resource of Retail. But thats not happpening.Check this for it: Re: Help required with Access policy trigger on Enable User in OIM 11.1.1.5
    Also here we have selected 'Retrofit Access Policy' flag and ran the 'Evaluate user ploicy' scheduled task but we could n't see any changes because of that.Retrofit Flag- If it is set to true, then all the users who already had a Role (before access policy was created) will also get evaluated. If set to false, then only newly added users to the role will be evaluated for access policy. What is the status of the resource when you disable the user the first time?

  • Provisioning existing users through Access Policies in OIM

    Hi
    I need to evaluate access policies for existing users in OIM.
    My understanding on "Set User Provisioned Date" is...this scheduler will sets the provisioned date for user in user profile which inturn call entity adapter evaluatePolicies and should trigger Access Policy. Correct me if i am wrong.
    But for all existing users Provisioned Date is already set through trusted recon. Will this scheduler(Set User Provisioned Date) replace with new date?
    Sounds like silly question. But to confirm before testing this in production :)
    Thanks

    Yep
    Running this schedule task will not sufficient. You'll have to select RETROFIT check box while creating Access Policy.

  • I need to erase the contents of my phone and restore to factory settings. Does anybody know how to save your texts so you don't lose them?  Can I back those up to iCloud?  My phone was very likely hacked (Apple's advice was to call the police!)

    "I need to erase the contents of my phone and restore to factory settings. Does anybody know how to save your texts so you don't lose them?  Can I back those up to iCloud?  My phone was very likely hacked (Apple's advice was to call the police!)"
    That was all I could put in the initial "box."  Then it brought me to this page with instructions on how to write a good sentence.
    Proceeding ...
    After going back and forth between Apple, AT&T and the police (all telling me to go to the other two) I took AT&Ts suggestion and got a new number. One tech warned against doing a backup, especially on my Mac, saying if my phone had been hacked then whatever bug was there would then invade my computer. But nobody knows how to determine if the phone has been hacked or a virus was planted there. Unfortunately I know who would have reason to do such a thing and all I can say is that he is at the top technologically and could easily do it. Almost impossible to prove, however.
    So I need to preserve my text messages and my emails as well. I backed up my photos to that Microsoft product (One-Drive) and it froze (Surprise, Surprise) with four short videos to go, and no way of stopping that (when I tried it crashed repeatedly) so I'm in crisis mode here.
    Help ...

    Thanks!

    Betty I don't know if you fixed your hacking problem but I feel your pain. I've seen some strange things going on between my iMac and my iPhone and Apple has told me the same thing, call the police which I have done. The hackers have stole 500.00 out of my checking account have access to every internet account I use and no matter how often I change the password their right back on the account. I closed my FB account 3 times only to have someone reopen it. Right now I've got a link in my reading list (Safari) that if I click on it, it allows me to log onto my FB account anonymously.
    I've seen a green folder come out of no where while I was trying to delete my passwords out of keychain when that green folder was put into the key chain I was immediately locked out. I than went into system preferences to try to make changes to my security settings, when I clicked on the icon it wouldn't open. I've seen log files of automator receiving commands and sending out my personal information thats on my computer.
    I have a legitamate program called iExplorer that allows you to look at the contents of your iPhone back ups and saw a transaction someone made at the Apple store for some full length movies, some albums, ibooks and other apps but when I called the iTunes store and they said none of those items were showing up on my account. If their not on my account how can they be on my iPhone 6? One day someone was using my gmail account and unknowingly used google maps to search for an Italian restaurant, than a Mexican restaurant than a coffee shop and their search showed up on my iPhone but I didn't have my gmail account installed on my iPhone 6. Using my computer I logged onto my gmail account and looked at the maps history and sure enough there were the searches when I'd hover my curser over the link it gave me the longitude and latitude of the where the hacker was when he was using google maps. I know whoever reads this thinks Im crazy but I've documented everything and can prove the things that I have mentioned in this post actually happened.
    One day I had my laptop (pc) and my iMac next to each other as I was using both. when I clicked on airport it showed that my laptop and my iMac had made a connection and were actually communicating with each other. I know I didn't do it I don't know how. The iMac was logged into my iCloud account while my laptop wasn't. I have formatted my iPhone at least a dozen times, Apple and an Apple retailer have formatted my hard drive not to mention the numerous times I have formatted it but the hackers keep getting on my devices. Im formatting my lap top at this very second because during the course of the night I left the ethernet cable plugged into it and they locked me out of my c: drive, and configured the system so I can't download any updates from Microsoft, overtime I type in www.microsoft.com it changes to ww38.microsoft.com which takes me to a blank page. I right clicked on the page I was redirected to and read the java script and couldn't believe that someone had actually configured Internet Explorer to redirect me to a blank page when I tried to go to Microsoft. Apples answer to all this is there was nothing wrong with my iPhone or my iMac and if I thought there was a problem to call the police which I have done.
    Theres no doubt the hackers are reading this while I type it or will read it and I simply don't care anymore. I no longer email anyone, don't use my iCloud account and have taken precautions to protect my credit but if I ever find out who has invaded my privacy to this extreme the police are going to want to talk to me because Im going to hurt them like they've never been hurt before

  • I updated to iTunes 12 and didn't like it. Followed advice to revert to 11.1. Now my iphone won't sync and error message says I need iTunes 11.2 or higher. Apple Download choices didn't have anything between 11.1.5 and 12. What can I do?

    I updated to iTunes 12 and didn't like it. Followed advice to revert to 11.1. Now my iPhone 5 won't sync and error message says I need iTunes 11.2 or higher. Apple Download choices didn't have anything between 11.1.5 and 12. What can I do? Using iTunes 12 is not an option. Many features I used for audiobooks have disappeared.

    The version immediately prior to 12 was 11.4.0.18. Here are direct download links from Apple's servers:
    iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-09-09)
    iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-09-09)

  • Advice on how to access photos on an iPad that were synced from a now failed laptop? The question stems from a need to return my current iPad having just taken delivery of a new unit. Thanks

    I am after some advice on how to access photos on an iPad that were synced from a now failed laptop? The question stems from a need to return my current iPad having just taken delivery of a new unit. Thanks

    If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox. 
    There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.

    All of your computers content are available in the AppleTV section called "Computer".  This is where you will find your music.

  • I have an apple developer account to make a new app, but I need to give access to the designer without sharing my payment info or allowing him to have access to my icloud, apps or itunes account. There is some way to have another password?

    I have an apple developer account to make a new app, but I need to give access to the designer without sharing my payment info or allowing him to have access to my icloud, apps or itunes account. There is some way to have another password?

    The designer is usually someone who just handles the user interface portion of the code. The developer would handle core functionality. I assumed you were the developer and the designer was the designer. You are the client and your "designer" is the developer.
    Ideally, you should create a business account so that you can add someone to your team. That is the way it is supposed to work. Otherwise, you will have to ask for the final source code so that you can build and submit the app yourself. You should always have the source code regardless. You should always perform the submission under your own account too. Otherwise, it is the developer's app, not yours.
    Sharing accounts is against the Apple Developer agreement anyway. The App Store Gold Rush is over. Now it is mostly zombie apps and competing fraudsters. You don't want to give someone access to your iTunes account. You really don't want to give someone access to your bank account either.
    The best solution would be to convert your account to a business account. You may be able to have the developer submit the app and then transfer it to you.

  • TS3297 iTunes not accessing the store...update didn't make any difference. Any advice? Thanks

    iTunes not accessing the store...update made no difference. Any advice what to do? Thanks

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

    My husband I both have iTunes accounts now, but he needs to have access to his old playlist on my account. How can he access my iTunes on his computer?

    Copy the files from your computer to a flash drive, and then he can copy the files from the flash drive to his computer, and add them to his iTunes library.

    You need to follow the instructions in this article that best apply to your situation:
    Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
    If you do not have a backup in either iCloud or iTunes, then you will have no way to retain the information on your device because you will have to restore it in order to access it again.
    Sorry,

  • OIM 9.1.0.2 - Access Policies issue

    Hi Gurus,
    I have facing a strange behavior in the Access Policies features.
    When users are inactived in the OIM, they should be removed from the groups associated to the AP, but the groups remain associated and because that the AP is triggered again provisioning resources to the users.
    Has someone faced the issue?
    Brgds,
    Carlos

    What does all of your group membership rules look like? Are you sure your right side is the correct format? You can create a rule where Users.Status = "Active". Just need to make sure it's case sensitive so you'll want to check the database for existing values.
