If you go to user configuration - Preferences - Control Panel - Internet settings, you can very easily make these changes, but they are user based.If I apply this change at a user level however, can I do item-level and tell it just to apply to the laptops? I'll test it outYes that would work, as long as the user objects / security group is within the scope and security filtering of the GPO.For example:User 1 logs onto Laptop1 -...

Hi All
I need to edit the IE LAN settings in GP using only computer settings. The changes I'm making are going to be applied to laptop users only, I don't want the settings applied to users as our users connect in various different ways (Desktops, laptops, so on)
The changes I'm making cannot affect the desktops, only the laptops & it cannot affect all users, only laptop users.
Tricky I know, but does anyone know how to do this? my Google searches have been unsuccessful so far!
Thank you
Bill

  • I want to shoot a movie on my iPhone and edit it on my iPad using the iMovie app. How can this be done via iTunes on my computer?

    I want to shoot a movie on my iPhone and edit it on my iPad using the iMovie app. How can this be done via iTunes on my computer?

    You can't drag video into the filesharing pane of iTunes, you can only transfer projects.
    Videos need to come in via the photos tab of iTunes.
    The easiest way to get videos from the iPhone to the iPad is via the project export import.
    Projects can be exported from the iPhone, then imported to the iPad like this:
    iPhone Send a project or trailer to iTunes
    If the marquee screen isn’t showing, tap the My Projects button .
    Scroll to center the project or trailer you want to share.
    Tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen, and then tap iTunes; tap OK when iMovie indicates that export is complete.
    Connect your device to your computer, and then open iTunes on your computer.After a moment, your device appears in iTunes, below Devices on the left.
    Select the device, and then click Apps at the top of the iTunes window.
    Select iMovie in the Apps list below File Sharing. (You may need to scroll to see it.)
    In the iMovie Documents pane, select the file you just shared, and then click the “Save to” button; save the file to your computer in a place where you can find it easily.You can also save the file by dragging it to the desired location on your computer.
    Disconnect the device from your computer.
    iPad Import a project or trailer from iTunes
    Connect your device to your computer, and open iTunes on your computer.After a moment, your device appears in iTunes, below Devices on the left.
    Select the device, and click Apps at the top of the iTunes window.
    Select iMovie in the Apps list below File Sharing. (You may need to scroll to see it.)
    Click Add below the iMovie Documents pane; in the window that appears, navigate to the file you want to add.
    Select the file, and then click Open to copy the file to your device.The file appears in the iMovie Documents pane when copying is complete.
    Open iMovie on your device; if the marquee screen isn’t showing, tap the My Projects button in the upper-left corner above the viewer.
    Tap the Import button at the bottom of the screen, and then tap the name of the project you want to import.When the import is complete, the project opens and can be edited like any other project.

    If you really want help, stop messing with the fonts and post so that others can read and offer suggestions.
    Or better yet... try a search, I'm certain you'll find a solution to whatever issue you're experiencing.
    I have found that many times it is the things that make you most angry that push you to action. This was the case here. Thank you for causing me to get so angry that I found the answer myself.

  • Only use a computer for email, internet, basic computing. Is the ipad a better option than a macbook?

    Used to have a macbook, bought it back in '07, had to sell it shortly thereafter.
    Don't have a computer now and need one.
    Looking over the macbook pro, I am wondering if it is too much computer for me.
    I use a computer for emails, surfing the web and twitter.
    I'm wondering if the ipad would be a better fit, or if I should be looking for a computer.
    Thanks.

    MacBook air just perfect i have an iPad 2 ( I know it's an old one but it is almost same ) i mostly need pc for stuff and normally I like to download movies for that I need a good memory which you won't get on an iPad best choice for you is a 11 or 13 inch MacBook air iPad is bettween comp and a phone it is good but not enought ( altleast for me ) if you take an iPad u won't the benefits of downloading zip files and many other files but with a MacBook you can do it as it supports all iPad is good for presenting stuff good for reading books , web pages are good too ( flash is not there so some sites are not good ) editing word docs or slidshows are nice and easy but not fully usefull ( simple editing options) if you convert the files say into doc it gets messy on a comp to see , plus doc files with lots of stuff like photos and tables gets messed up but if we convert to PDF then you get a nice experience , MacBook has many options in pages , numbers , keynote , you will like an iPad even I like it but like u even I am looking for a MacBook right now as I need to back up files and download movies anyways it decides unto u so go to the apple shop he will help u choice the right choice a person here will only tell good stuff and suggest what he likes but if you go to the apple store he will give you the perfect choice for u

  • We have 6 ipods and 1 iphone in our house. We have different itunes accounts. We use one computer. How can we share each others music? I moved everybodies itunes media folder to the public folder but when I open itunes I only see that accounts music.

    We have 6 ipods and 1 iphone in our house. We have different itunes accounts. We use one computer. How can we share each others music? I moved everybodies itunes media folder to the public music folder but when I open itunes I only see that accounts music. We need different itunes accounts. We share 1 computer but we have different user accounts on the computer.

    Adding media directly to the media folder does not make it appear in the library.  iTunes doesn't really 'look' at that folder except to go to specific files when you call upon them from a library. You have to drag new content to each user's library, that is assuming each user has their own library.

  • How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening.

    How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening. I don't want to use my iPad to take the video...too large/bulky. And I WON'T have a computer with me...I purchased the iPad to take with me so I could use the RDC to my home computer and avoid taking my computer at all. Is this possible?

    here is a cheaper solution than camera kit and a lot easier if you have WIFI available.
    I use the PhotoSync APP (I think its a $1.99) will transfer videos and photos over WIFI to any other IOS device or even PC/MAC. Great app since I like doing video and photos on my IPHONE and transfer to IPAD2 without synching through computer or doing cloud based storage.
    You can even send photos/videos from your MAC/PC to your IOS devices that way too. Makes it so much easier.
    Here is the link;

    Can anyone help me figure out how to sync my ipod with my purchased music?  I have used several computer and at one point synced my ipod with a computer that only had about half of my music.  My other computers are no longer working.  Not sure how to get my purchased music back onto my ipod?

    Hi kimcinma!
    Your previous purchases are saved on iCloud even if you bought them on another computer. If you can't find them on your current computer, you might need to unhide them. Go to iTunes preferences, and click on Store Preferences. Then click the box for "show iTunes in the Cloud purchases". Then click on OK, and everything you've ever bought from iTunes on that Apple ID will show up in your library. You will need to download them from iCloud first before you can synch them to your iPod Classic. To do this, click on the little cloud with the arrow in it next to your song, and it will download to your computer. When you have the music that you want downloaded, plug in your iPod and synch away. Hope this helps!

  • HT201303 Why is the only computer I have used now not being recognized by the App Store

    I recently downloaded an App from the App Store, and then received an email stating the computer used "had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.".  This is the only computer associated with my apple ID what is going on?

    Dear Correct name,
    Your Apple ID, correct Apple ID, was just used to download Codecademy: Code Hour from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID. You may also be receiving this email if you reset your password since your last purchase.
    If you initiated this download, you can disregard this email. It was only sent to alert you in case you did not initiate the download yourself.
    If you did not initiate this download, we recommend that you go to iforgot.apple.com to change your password, then see Apple ID: Security and your Apple ID for further assistance.

  • Can I sync my audio books from my iPod touch onto iTunes on my computer using only my computer?? My iPod is MIA, could have been stolen.

    I'm trying to determine whether or not I can import audio books from my iPod to my computer using only my computer. I purchased said audio books through the same iTunes account on my iPod that I have on my computer. I can't sync manually from my iPod because I haven't been able to locate it in weeks!! Is it possible to use only my laptop?

    The music sync is one way only - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • Internet Options, LAN Settings don't save when using Run As

    Hi,
    On Windows Server 2012 RTM with IE ESC off I can log on to the console of the server as UserA, I can open IE, open the Internet Options window, select the Connections tab, click LAN Settings, change a setting (eg specify a proxy server), click OK, and click
    LAN Settings again to confirm my changes were saved.
    However, if whilst logged on as UserA, I right-click the IE icon on the taskbar, select "Run as different user" and specify credentials for UserB instead, any changes I make in the LAN Settings window are forgotten the moment I click OK.
    But, if I log on to the console of the server as UserB and open IE, the LAN Settings window does remember the changes I make, so this is not a user permissions or Group Policy issue.
    Additionally, if I use Fiddler's "Tools, WinINET Options" menu to access the Internet Options window, I experience the same variations in behaviour I described above depending on whether Fiddler is run from the console user, or via "Run as different user".
    Lastly, using Sysinternals's ProcMon, when the LAN Settings are saved correctly, I can see it is done via DllHost.exe (WinInetBroker) calling GetUrlCacheEntryInfoEx which in turn writes the "Internet Settings\Connections\DefaultConnectionSettings" value
    to the registry. I can also see iexplore.exe writing the "Internet Settings\Connections\SavedLegacySettings" key. When attempting to change the LAN Settings when "Run as a different user", ProcMon still shows the successful write to the SavedLegacySettings
    key but the other key is never written to, there isn't even an Access Denied.
    A reference to "GetAppContainerRegistryLocation" in one of the ProcMon captured stack traces suggests this is behaviour new to Windows 8 as part of the "Metro"-style app isolation, however this is occuring in IE desktop mode and Fiddler (which is not a Metro
    app).
    I believe this is either a bug that needs to be fixed to allow changes to save correctly or return an error when attempting to save the changes if they will be ignored. At the very least, this behaviour needs to be documented.
    Regards,
    Jason

    Hi Jason,
    I have tested in my lab, and got same result with you. below is my test and results.
    1. log on with user1>> click "IE" and select "Run as different user">> type user2's credential >>change proxy, click "OK". open "internet option" again, the change was not saved.
    2. log on with user2, check proxy in IE, the change was not saved.
    Then I tested on "Home Page", zone settings, , I found the changes can be saved.
    I have done further test on other applications, such as notepad (enable/disable status base), calculator (View >> standard/scientific/programmer/statistics), the change can be save from "Run as different user".
    since this is a behavior of IE, I suggest you submit a post in IE forum and IE experts may give you explanation on that.
    Thanks.

  • Facing severe problem in IE10 of automatically getting clicked on "use a proxy server" every 5 minutes in LAN Settings whereas it is not required to use any proxy server at all when directly connected through ISP broadband.

    Using Window 8 Pro with IE 10 but facing tremendous problem in LAN settings. Every 5 minutes, it automatically gets clicked on "Use a Proxy Server for the LAN" and am unable to open any page unless the said setting is unclicked. The same applies
    while using Chrome or Firefox browsers.... none of the browsers behave properly and have to repeatedly unclick on proxy server settings (in IE or Chrome) and change settings on Firefox.
    Any suggestions to get rid of this problem...??? Thanks

    Hi,
    It seemed that some malware changed your registry which make proxy server enabled.
    Did you install any proxy agent software recently? If you did, please try uninstalling it now. And then make a full scan
    with malware removal tool.
    http://www.microsoft.com/security/pc-security/malware-removal.aspx
    Or locate to registry,
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings, set "ProxyEnable" = dword:00000000.

  • Can I use only one computer for driver development?

    Hi! I'm newbie in driver development and now is first day when I make the acquaintance of driver development. There is the next phrase in MSDN in
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh706187(v=vs.85).aspx
    : "For developing, debugging, and installing a kernel-mode driver, you need two computers". But I unfortunately have only one computer and I have to develop the USB Kernel Mode driver as technical assignment for admission to the job.
    My computer is under Windows 7 OS and already has standard USB driver. I have Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate and WDK 8.1 Update on my computer. Can I use only one computer for driver development and debugging or not?

    no, not really, you need two. you can use a VM as the machine under test though.
