Can I disable installing extensions for a large group of computers on a domain

I have a large number of computers on a network. I have users who are installing addons to bypass a webfilter. Is there a way to disable installing addons via group policy or some other remote management?

Is there a way to remove addons remotely for a large number of computers for ones that have been installed?

You may have to log in as the Administrator user rather than
"run as adminstrator".
Beyond that, are there really enough users on a system that
they can't install the extension(s) they need themselves?

How can I disable the Keychain for an application?

How can I disable the Keychain for an application? A window pops up every time I open a page in Safari asking me for a password. I'm using a student laptop, so while I'm an administrator I lack access to a few things, such as the Keychain Access application. Is there any way to deal with this?

It's possible you may be able to trick it by creating an Applications folder in your Home directory and moving Safari to it.
I can't test this but it might work. The problem is that you would miss Safari updates, so you'd have to keep an eye out for them. Another solution may be to download another Safari and install in yourname/Applications.

HT1338 Why can't I install Leopard for PowerPC on my old Mac Mini?

Why can't I install Leopard for PowerPC on my old Mac Mini? The massage "This can not be installed on this computer" appears.

My thoughts are that your difficulties could be one of these:
your non-retail DVD may only work on a very limited range of Mac minis
the installer may not like your new RAM
the installer may not like the language change especially if the disk has not been erased first
I have seen a little evidence for 3 in the code of other Leopard install DVDs - they appear to have less stringent language checks for erased volumes. Whilst I have never modified model specific installers I have modified retail installers to ignore speed and RAM checks.
My advice:
back up your whole mini hard disk to an external disk - see notes
erase the hard disk and partition into 2 volumes with Leopard install DVD
try to install Leopard on one volume
put original OS on the other volume
Notes:
Carbon Copy Cloner can be used to backup the whole hard disk
ensure the mini can be booted from the external disk before you erase the internal disk

Why can't I install software for AirPort Extreme 802.11n while running Mountain Lion OSX?

Why can't I install software for AirPort Extreme 802.11n while running Mountain Lion OSX? The installation CD simply says that the software can't be installed while running this OSX.

Mountain Lion already has the most recent, updated version of AirPort Utility installed on your Mac. The version on your CD is out of date, so you can trash the CD.
Look in Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility.

You can install it on 2 Apple computers

Can I legally install the photoshop & lightroom package on 2 computers?

can I legally install the photoshop & lightroom package on 2 computers?

Yes. The license says that you can install on up to two computers, as long as you are the one using it and aren’t’ using both at the same time. In other words, you have a personal license for yourself on two computers, not a license for two different people on two different computers.

Q: How can I install extensions for Bridge CS6?

Because Bridge CS6 is not supported by Extension Manager anymore, you have to install them manually.
For MXP extension, you can convert it to ZXP extensions with Extension Manager CS6. Then try steps below.
For ZXP extension, use utility software such as 7-zip, WinZip or WinRAR to extract it to a folder.If there is no mxi file after extraction, then it is a CSXS extension.
For CSXS ZXP extension, move the folder to following folder.
Windows: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CS6ServiceManager\extensions\"
Mac: "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS6ServiceManager/extensions/"
For non-CSXS ZXP extension, check the content of the MXI file. Copy all source files defined in "..." to the corresponding destination folders manually. If you are not sure where these files should be copied, please paste the mxi file here.

I just want to correct one comment made here that said that Extension Mnager did not support extensions for Bridge. In fact it is Bridge CS6 (not Extension Manager CS6) that does not support CS Extensions (or Flash Extensions).

How I can change ( or install ) pass for entrance to my PC ?

I want to install passwords for entrance to my Mazilla Firefox and MozillaThunderbird. How I can do this ?

Best way is to password protect your Windows user account. <br />
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/winxp/accounts.mspx
Sorry, neither Firefox or Thunderbird have that type of password protection. There's an extension available to add it to both, but it is easily by passed. And is not available from the official Mozilla Add-ons website

Can I still get extensions for CS5.5?

How do I download extensions for CS5.5? I see a new Extension Manager but only for 6 and all of the links on the 5.5 pages go to error pages???
Help!!
Jenn

Hi Jenn,
You should have Extension Manager with your install of CS5.5. If not you can download it here (the link to CS5.5 is about half way down the page):

Adobe Exchange only supports CS6 and beyond so you can use Adobe Exchange Classic in the mean time:

I hope that helps.

Cannot install extensions for Safari. Help!

No matter what I try to do I cannot get Safari to install extensions. I have tried some of the answers others have been given for a similar problem but non of them seem to work. If anyone can tell me a way I can uninstall Safari and reinstall it again or repair it I would be incredibly grateful for your help.

Try deleting the Safari .plist
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Try adding an extension.
The only way to reinstall Safari on a Mac running v10.8 Mountain Lion is to reinstall OS X using OS X Recovery
* Really helps to tell us exactly what you have tried that didn't work. We have no way of knowing

I can not disable lock code for n8

Decided to setup the mail for exchange on my N8 so I could see my work emails. Worked like a charm but after a couple of hours decided I didn't like being that contactable so deleted the mailbox.
Now to the problem, during setup I was forced to enable the phone lock and had to pick an 8 digit numeric code. Fair enough I thought and went ahead. When I removed the mailbox however the lock remained in place with the default auto time of 20 minutes. When I checked in Phone management there is no option to disable this lock so I thought I could at least change the default time to something bigger but when you try, it remains at 20 mins. You also can't disable the auto time as it pops up an error message saying can't unlock phone

Yes, that phonelock is very unpleasant - caused by Mail-for-exchange ; the Phonelock is my reason to Un-install Mail-for-Exchange [you can't type a Five-digit code into your phone everytime you want to start Maps : you would crash your car!] . . . I will have to find a Mail-client that doesn't annoy me

I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor.Can we re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive for a old macbook?Just one example.

I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor who we get to buy all our Apple products from.Can we (university) re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive once the hard drive gets replaced? How can we as the university IT department legally re-install macosx on a imac,macbook, macbookair etc. We would like to load customized macosx imaging software onto the mac machines(imac, macbook, etc ). The university has its own IT workshop and we would like our users to get their laptops back in the shortest turnaround time.

We're not "Apple Inc." here, just users like you.
So whatever we say is not an official statement, nor does it in any way, shape, or form represent the official or unofficial policies or opinions of Apple, Inc.
But I'll offer my quick opinion, having worked in information-systems and technology support in a wide variety of environments over many years.
Question #1. "NO!"
No tech support nor repair facility, even if "Apple-authorized", is automatically empowered to install or upgrade OS X on a replacement hard drive just because it is more convenient or time-efficient. When the repair is complete, the student should be expected to (re)install the operating system themself*!
Nurturing students (and occasionally dragging them, screaming and kicking!) as budding computer-, tablet-, smartphone-users to become digitally self-sufficient is a worthy goal that any institution of higher education must pursue.
Making students totally dependent upon "Mother Support" for every little thing about their personal digital devices is a grave disservice to both the students and the people who provide the support. Support-mothered students do become life-long digital dependents, instead of taking the required time to learn enough about the care and feeding of their digital "pets" to sustain them. Entreprenurial students may choose to become 'experts' and actually help each other with their devices, and even make money doing it. Some students may even be inspired/coerced to pursue a career in tech support!!!
*By all means, if the student requests additional help (re-installing the OS), then the University should charge the student a fair price for the service, provided that the user provides the OS on original or upgrade media, or in the case of the 'digital download' upgrades (for OS X 10.7 and 10.8) provides proof of purchase for the OS upgrade, or the original purchase receipt or other recognized documentation for the purchase of the computer showing the version of OS installed when purchased. Students need to learn about personal responsibility, economics ("What is MY time really worth"?), and proper record-keeping too!
Question #2. Regarding the customized imaging software, provide it on media or a link for students to download and install it. Make it their responsibility!
