Does the Computers container in Active Directory have any Group Policy applied to it?

Hello,
It is my understanding that the Computers container can not have Group Policy applied to it. Does it still inherit the default domain policy, or is it not affected by any Group Policy at all?
Thanks.

Hi,
Glad the issue was solved.
Additionally, for the information about group policy related, please refer to the similar thread as below:

Cfldap and deleted objects container in Active Directory

Hello,
I am trying to use a CFLDAP query to bind and search in the
Deleted Objects container of Active Directory. This would allow me
to get the sAMAccountname values of the users who have been deleted
within the last default 60 days (searching tombstone objects in
Deleted Objects).
I have tried various methods including <cfldap
start="CN=Deleted Objects, DC=<domain>, DC=<com>> (I
am omitting the rest of the CFLDAP attributes in the example
above). I'm not sure if CFLDAP can even query the deleted objects
container. Has anyone had any experience with this?
Thanks,
Ben

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your help! I have however already explored those
solutions offered by Microsoft. Sadly, they only work in separate
programs (i.e. ldap.exe which comes with Windows Server tools).
After lots of research I have found a Java method that can bind
with the container and return the results. CFLDAP, I'm afraid is
just not capable of doing this - or at least I have had no luck
with it (I was connecting as domain admin btw).
The challenge now is to get the Java class to communicate
with the rest of my cf code.
Thanks again,
Ben

How to list all the Fields for an Active Directory Object

On my Mac Mini, I keep getting this error message: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server". I don't have any problems with iCloud on my laptop / PC. It works fine... Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Your Mac must be on Lion (10.7) to run iCloud. Apple had to change the operating system to fully support it. Nevertheless, it is possible to get emails from iCloud without having Lion. Please tell me if this interests you.
Anyways, here is the link to buy Lion (30 dollars, totally worth the upgrade ): http://itunes.apple.com/be/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12

No. The storage is all SSD.

If you are referring to an optical drive, that is also NOT included. You would need to connect one externally.

I purchased an iPhone 5S using my EDGE upgrade on September 5, but would like to exchange it for an iPhone 6 within the 14 day period. Other than having to pay the $35 restocking fee, will I have any problems doing so? Thanks

Good evening udflyers! You should not have any problem returning/exchanging your current within 14 days http://bit.ly/IeiJI of purchase. However, you may have to preorder the device you want as it is not currently available and preorder start on 9/12/14 at 12:01am, PST. Please process your return/exchange thru the same channel as your original purchase.

Does the new iMac coming in December have a dvd drive? If not can you use the Apple USB SuperDrive?

Does the new iMac coming in December have a dvd drive? If not can you use the Apple USB SuperDrive?

The soon to be released new iMacs don't have a DVD drive. I don't believe that Apple have updated their site to say their USB drive will work, but the expectation is that it will.
I watched the keynote and when Phil Schiller was presenting the new models I think he mentioned something about it working and he had one on the desk next to the iMac.
I'm going to check the keynote if it's still up and I'll update my post if I'm wrong.

Does the IPAD mini come with, or have an optional, adaptor for charging from the cigarette lighter in the car?

Does the IPAD mini come with, or have an optional, cigarette lighter adaptor for charging?

Thanks much for the links, Johnathan. I am going to be spending this summer kayaking in SE Alaska working with a conservation group out of Sitka, measuring data from remote wilderness areas. I found a human powered 12v charger made by Freeplay Energy that utilizes a common cigarette lighter plug in. With one of the adaptors you have identified for me I should be able to crank power into a mini in the middle of nowhere.
I had hoped I could download the free Sirius XM app and receive satellite radio in addition to other mini uses, but Sirius informs me they don't cover SE Alaska, but could still receive broadcasts whenever I'm in one of the Sitka harbors that provide wifi, i.e. internet radio.
If any other helpful takes on my situation occur to you be assured I'm all ears.
Thanks again.
