Apple Configurator - Passcode - Grace Period for Device Lock

Help.
I am using 40 new iPads in a classroom, using Apple Configurator. I set a passcode to the student profile, and the Grace Period for Device Lock is set to 4 hours. However, every time the iPad is locked, it requires a passcode to unlock it, even if immediately turned back on. The grace period function is not working. Anyone else have a problem with this?

HI nsdjoey,
Many thanks for your reply.
Hopefully this will be an update within Apple Configurator soon. The configurator has the potentail to be a great tool but lacks soem really basic features.
I'll take a look at making an encrypted backup in iTunes, although none of my iPads are showing up as devices within iTunes. Maybe becasue they are in supervise mode ?
Also just noticed that iPad 20 is not appearing in the Configurator even though its conected and lit up in the sync cab. I've change leads and ports in the cab but getting nothing.
Thanks for your advice.

Is there a grace period for apple email address?

Hey guys I was wondering if there was a grace period for apple email address yourname@'insert apple domain name'.com once you deactivate or delete it before it can be used again?
for example with phone numbers for certain companies it takes 2yrs once the number is disconnected for it to be available to be used again.
Which leads into why i'm asking this, as the reason for this is I had an apple ID/email address that i used when working for an apple reseller a few years ago and when i left i was asked to delete it. which i did but i would like to use the yourname part of it again with @icloud.com but its saying the email address is already in use.
Now i know what you might say that someone else could be using in but thats is very unlikely as i have a very unique name plus i also know that apple in their infinite wisdom kept all address ending in @me.com and @apple.com active in the icloud change over to allow association between @me.com accounts and @icloud.com accounts and i believe the later is the cause of my fustration.
If there is no grace period is there anyway to prove that i was [email protected] and delete that record so that i can setup [email protected] as the apple ID in question are different?

The grace period for the Remote Desktop Session Host server has expired

<p>I'm running Windows Server 2012, we only have 1 server and it's a DC. I'm trying to RD to the server from my Windows 7 laptop. It was working fine on Friday but when I came in on Monday I got message saying that 'The remote session was disconnnected
because there are no Remote Desktop License Servers available to provide a license'
So after a bit of digging I found out my 'grace period' had expired, so ordered a new license which I got today, installed this all ok but still i cannot connect via RD I get the same message....went into the RD License Diagnoser and it said the problem
was as follows
'The grace period for the Remote Desktop Session Host server has expired, but the RD Session Host server has not been configured with any license servers. Connections to the RD Session Host server will be denied unless a license server is configured for
the RD Session Host server.'
Suggested Resolution as follows
Configure a license server for the Remote Desktop Session Host server. If you have an existing license server, specify that license server for the RD Session Host Server. Otherwise, install RD Licensing on a computer on your network and Configure RD Session
Host Server to use it.'
I cannot figure out how to do this as I cannot find the RD Session Host Server tool.
Can any of you lovely people help me please

Hello,
Best option would be to assign the license server by using AD GPO. Youl will need to configure the following:
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Licensing
and define the settings for:
Use the specified Remote Desktop License Server
Set the Remote Desktop Licensing mode
Then assign the policy tho your server.

Grace period for iTunes Plus?

In the past couple of months (as recently as five days ago), I've purchased some non-Plus iTunes albums. Now, several of them are being offered as Plus upgrades to me.
Is there any grace period for newly purchased items, or do I just need to swallow a $3-or DRM penalty for buying something on its release date?

at least be pointed to some documentation about this
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1711
"Can I upgrade previously purchased music to iTunes Plus?
Yes. Any available upgrades will be shown on the Upgrade to iTunes Plus page. You can upgrade all of your items at once by using the Buy All button. This replaces all eligible previous purchases with iTunes Plus versions of the same items. You can also choose to make individual upgrades by clicking the Buy button to the right of each item. Song upgrades are available for 0.30 USD, video upgrades for 0.60 USD, and albums for 30 percent of the album price. The counter to the right of the "Upgrade to iTunes Plus" link in the Quick Links box will indicate when additional eligible content become available."

[locked] Will there be a grace period for CS5?

Hi.
I don't like this question about the new Creative Suite and when it will finally be released. But I've a question about the grace periods Abobe offered the last times after their release announcements. Will there be one for CS5 too?
Best regards

Rick,
Can you please expound on exactly what is meant by the "grace period"? Are you referring to the duration of a trial? Or possibly a certain length of time one is able to upgrade at a reduced price/
The "grace period," that I was referring to is the purchase of, in this case, CS4, just prior to the release of CS5. Historically, with a smallish window in time, where the newer upgrade is offered free to those who qualify. IIRC, that window has been about 30 days, prior to the official release of the newer version. Many software companies do similar. That is what I was referring to, and assumed that the OP was, as well.
Now, Adobe has done "pre-sells" for some programs, so I do not know how this might affect things. Again, only the product marketing folk can definitively comment. Mine are just speculation, based on decades of using Adobe products. Still, I do not recall having ever purchased an upgrade, within the time frame to get the new one free. I usually upgrade much earlier, and just use the new program. When a newer one comes out, I study it, and then decide if I really need that.
Hope that this clears up, where I was coming from,
Hunt

Apple configurator - Passcode Restriction saving on one ipad but won't save on the others

I have read a few different posts about the ipad restrictions passcode not transferring to the rest of my ipads but can’t understand why it saves on one of them ?
I have 2 cabinets with 10 ipads in each both linked up to an imac using Apple Configurator.
On iPad One I’ve set up the available restrictions within profile, added apps, changed wallpaper/background etc and the enabled restrictions using a passcode on the actual device and backed up.
I then apply the backup and profile to the remainder 19 ipads and everything looks fine except enable restrictions is set to off on all of the 19 ipads.
So I think this can’t be a setting that’s transferable. I then un-tick Automatic Refresh in Preferences and go through all 19 ipads and enable restrictions manually choosing the exact same passcode for all devices.
I plug them back in and refresh the devices. All 19 loose their passcode except for ipad one ?
Why does ipad one save this setting yet all other 19 devices cant save theirs ?
I intend of giving out the 20 ipads for public use but can restrict users from going in to settings, then reset and erase the device back to factory settings.
This seems like a basic requirement for anyone deploying ipads for public, business or education use.
Is there a smarter way to do this that I a missing?

Grace period for update to Logic pro 7.2

Hi all,
I just got my Logic Pro 7.1 today, version which I ordered a few days back. Does anybody know if I have to pay for the update to Logic Pro 7.2 or if there's a grace period? It's very annoying if I have to pay for an update.
Thanks for any informations
Baz

This not for us PPC users or users without Pro tools
Mostly for GARAGEBAND users wanting to switch to PRO
why they call it pro, i don't understand
after $75 Australian dollars and i still have to buy another plug-in to make logic work properly
what kind of morons are sitting behind Emagic seats right now, and if it still the Emagic guys then i feel sorry for you guys
Every other Pro DAW has this feature and it comes with the app with the price you pay, even the applications that don't call their-self pros has it
GOD !!!
you can't even change a tempo more than 5 bpm up or down without regretting to buy logic
the future of logic doesn't look great after all (i was so happy when apple took over and brought logic 7) it hasn't even that long and all the happiness are turning down after each update and each time i open the application)

Grace Period for document process

A document is submitted for approval. There is a defined length of time (grace period) that any approval can stay without being approved. If the document exceeds the grace period a reminder email is sent to the approver(s). If it exceeds the defined length of time times X (deadline period) then an email is sent to the requestor and a manager
     A field that defines the grace period. This field must be editable by the document administrator
     A field that defines the deadline period. This field must be editable by the document administrator
     Define standard email text that is editable by the document administrator. The standard text could be different for each email
     Review the grace period and compare it to documents that have been put in approval
     Send an email based on the comparison to the approver(s) with standard text
     Review the documents and compare it to the deadline period
     Send an email based on the comparison to the requestor and manager with standard text
can anyone help
thanks

Hi Venu,
I only said "like time based publishing service", I didn't say that you should use it. I only wanted to say: Look at how TBP service works, the same idea could be the basis for your implementation.
Properties: Under System Administration -- System Configuration -- Knowledge Management -- Configuration -- Content Management -- Global Services you will find Property Metadata and Property Structures (with different subfolders). Just walk through them carefully to understand how properties are managed within KM. Once you got it, it's easy to implement/extend the given properties with your own ones.
Hope it helps

Why I can't import iMovie into Apple Configurator without asking me for more codes. If iMovie is free, and I upgraded the latest version and to Yosemite.

Previously, our school bought a number of codes for iMovie. One of our MacAirs that supervises some iPads through Apple Configurator showed that it was free. However, another Mac Air did not saying that I needed to import more codes. I upgraded everything, software, iMovie in iTunes, and Apple Configurator. Everytime I upload iMovie into Configurator it shows I only have 2 codes, while on the other MacAir, it shows it as free.

Can I import photos from iPhoto ('08; 7.1.5) into latest version of Aperture without upgrading my iPhoto to the iPhoto '11 version?
To elaborate a bit on TD's answer:
You can import only folders of images or selected image files that have been exported from older iPhoto libraries, not the libraries themself.
Aperture 3.4.5 cannot work with iPhoto Libraries that have not been upgraded to iPhoto 9.4. or later at all:
You cannot open them in Aperture:
And you cannot import them as a library to create an Aperture library from the older iPhoto Library.
Without upgrading to iPhoto '11 your only option would be to export your original images and the edited versions from iPhoto '08 and to import the folders of images into Aperture. That would be a lot of work, a waste of disk space, and break the lossless workflow. You will clutter your Aperture library with duplicates (version and edite image) that are no proper original-version pairs.
For a smooth transit from iPhoto to Aperture I strongly recommend to bite the bullet and to upgrade to iPhoto '11 to upgrade your iPhoto libraries to the new version 9.4.3 to preserve all the previous work - albums, books, ratings - you have done in iPhoto.
Aperture 3.3: Using a unified photo library with iPhoto and Aperture

Apple Configurator doesn't see my device

Okay so when I plug my ipad into my imac I see via iTunes, which is all good and well. I just downloaded Apple Configurator this week and thought since we had two ipads at the school I should try this out in case we decide to go to a 1-to-1 environment with these. The first one I plugged in was straight out of the apple box brand new and it worked great. I played around with some settings and checked it out to a teacher. The second one had been in the hands of a teacher for a couple of weeks. I plugged it into the imac and bam it pops right up in iTunes. I click Apple Configurator and bam, it is lost in iTunes and nothing shows up in Apple Configurator! I did an Erase All Content and Settings, and still nothing. If I can keep Apple Configurator out of the picture the iMac will see it just fine, but as soon as I start AC it completely disappears, it doesnt' show up in Finder now!
If anybody has any fixes for this I would love to hear them.
Thanks

ok, never got the Apple TV to work wirelessly, but ended up moving an AP Express to the TV and plugging in the ATV to the e-net port of the express. not really the way I wanted it to work, but it does.

Apple Configurator- Multiple Profiles on Multiple Devices

I'm using Apple Configurator 1.4.3. I was wondering if there is any way to install multiple profiles on to multiple devices at once.
Right now it only gives you the options of installing multiple profiles on one device OR one profile on multiple devices.

Hey Rookeydooks,
Sounds like you have Apple Configurator set to automatically refresh when you connect iPads. To turn this off (in Apple Configurator 1.2.1), in the menu bar go to Apple Configurator -> Preferences. On the General tab, uncheck "Automatically refresh". This way, the iPad won't automatically revert back to the saved supervised backup.
Once you make your changes, you should then create a new Supervised Backup. After that, you can go back to Apple Configurator -> Preferences, and check "Automatically refresh".
Hope this answers your question!

Apple configurator - rearranging icons on supervised devices

I have set up 3 test ipads to try and understand the power of Apple configurator before rolling out around 20 further ipads with an identical layout..
I now have all 3 ipads loading with one profile and a bunch of free apps. The problem is all the app icons are across 3 different pages on the ipad and i want to tidy them up so they appear on just the first 2 pages of the ipad. I also want to arrange the icons so the most popular ones are on the first page.
When i try to rearrange the icons on one ipad then re-connect it, the ipad reverts back to the old display of icons spread across 3 pages. I guess this because it reverts to the previous saved profile.
I can't seem to find a way of turning off the supervision temporarily to allow me to arrange all the icons in the way i want, change the background imagae or make any small setting changes on the ipad to be able to roll those changes out to all the other devices.
I feel like i am missing something ?

Can't Avtivate Grace Period License for FM_Server

Hi All,
I have a customer whose Fabric consists of the following:
Fabric_1 : 2 Directors
Fabric _2 : 2 Directors
For Fabric_1 customer has used up the 120 grace period for FM_Server, for Fabric_2 customer has not used the Grace period for FM_Server but wants to use the 120day grace period, however we are unable to start the grace period for this fabric, we tried to create flows etc in FM.
One thing to note , customer uses the same FM_Server instance to manage the fabrics.
Thanks and rgds,
JIm.

Hi David,
We have tried all of the above, the error we receive when we try to invoke the grace period for 'FM_Server is as follows'
'No Fabric Manager License available for Fabric_G_MDS_02'
During our investigations we came across the following Bug 'CSCsr44223', unfortunately I don't have access to this bug.
Thanks and rgds,
