How could I allow selected Domain users or Computers to install programs and not be asked for Admin credentials.

 We have a handfull of Laptops in the company. They are all joined to our
Domain. The default domain policy keeps these non-adminstrators from installing
software without prodiving the administrator credentials for the domain. We have a
few users that we would let install programs but would prefer not to make administrators.
I have been all over the place searching for solutions. Is there an actual field to allow this
in Group Policy? All the suggestions I have seen have dead-ended on me....Any thoughts.
Server is Windows 2003R2 and clients are all WIndows 7 Pro. Again, at this point I would like
to be able to allow specified computers this right.

Based on what I have found Power Users group has no added user rights in Windows 7:
From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771990.aspx:
By default, members of this group have no more user rights or permissions than a standard user account. The Power Users group in previous versions of Windows was designed to give users specific administrator rights and permissions to perform common system
tasks. In this version of Windows, standard user accounts inherently have the ability to perform most common configuration tasks, such as changing time zones. For legacy applications that require the same Power User rights and permissions that were present
in previous versions of Windows, administrators can apply a security template that enables the Power Users group to assume the same rights and permissions that were present in previous versions of Windows.
So despite the caution it does not  seem like an option. As for Publishing Software, if the user needs to install something "on the fly" that will not work. I guess i could just add to the administrator group as needed in order to install programs then
remove. Now the user is remote operationg on cached credentials. Would then not need to come to the domain and log in locally in order to update their security tokens.

    The devices are not designed for transfer of that kind.  Use Photo Stream as suggested by another poster, or transfer photos to your computer (a good idea anyway since they will be lost if your device needs to be reset), then use iTunes to sync them to the other devices.

  • How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?

    How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?
    We are two people using three difrent Macs, 1 Iphone and 1 Ipad with separate USERS  on each Mac but sharing the same Apple ID: xxxxxx
    I set up the first user to iCloud and it was OK but when I set up the second user to use iCoud the first users's info gets mixed with the second user's info?
    Do we have to set up a diffrent Apple ID for each other?
    Sometime ago I added my friends E mail (yyyyy) to the main Apple ID (xxxx) as for using his E mail account (to separate our e mail accounts, and it's working ok) but now when I try to create a new apple ID whith the same friend's e mail (yyyyyy)  it says that his mail (yyyyy) is already an apple ID when the Apple ID is really my E mail (xxxxx)... any clue?
    Thanks

    I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
    Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
    Hope that helps

  • I tried to upgrade the ios on the phone and I was asked for my icloud user and password. I don't remember these exactly and I tried several times with different options but unsuccessfully. I also forget my email used to configurate the phone.

    How i said on the question. I tried to upgrade the ios on the phone and I was asked for my icloud user and password. I don’t remember these exactly and I tried several times with different options but unsuccessfully. I also forget my email used to configurate the phone. I have the phone box and the bill. I sent you an email with my problem and attachments with the box informations, the bill and the reset request. What to do? You said to me:
    Your request comes from an unrecognized email domain. Apple accepts email requests only from email domains for Apple-authorized carriers.
    Please re-submit your request using your official carrier domain.
    but this email is authorized, what to do??

  • How can I turn off where every time I turn on iPad or mail it ask for password

    I Have the iPad 4, after last update I changed my Apple ID and password, but iCloud won't change the ID but it allowed the pw change so every time I turn on iPad or go to mail it wants the password. This is frustrating as I'm the only one on here. Help how do I save PW so it's not always asking for it Thanks  Susiecue

    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, and then click General. 
    Open the General pane of Security & Privacy preferences
    2.     Select “Require password...NEVER after sleep or screen saver begins.”  You can adjust the amount of delay before a password is required in the pop-up menu.
    From what I am aware, you cannot turn off the keychain.
    I hope this helps.

  • How do i attach a file to an email as an attachment and not embeded in the message?

    how do i attach a file to an email as an attachment and not embeded in the message?

    This question has been asked and answered several times already.
    Any file attached to an e-mail message is an attachment. There is no other possibility -- the mail protocol does not allow it.
    However, different e-mail clients may have different ways of displaying or viewing attachments, depending on their settings and the type of file attached.

  • Owned an iMac for 5 years - have no idea what my password is for my AirPort Express which I set up about 3 years ago  My wife has just purchased an iPad 2 and it is asking for my forgotten password - how do I retrieve it ?

       How do I recover my password set up when I added AirPort Express to my iMmac a few years ago..  My wife has just purchased an iPad and it is asking for that "forgotten" password to make the Wi Fi connection ?

    From the airport express user manual:
    If You Forgot Your Network or AirPort Express Password
    You can clear the AirPort network or AirPort Express password by resetting AirPort
    Express.
    To reset your password:
    1 Use the end of a straightened paper clip to press and hold the reset button for one
    second.
    2 Select your AirPort network.
    On a Macintosh computer:
    => Use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar to select the network created by AirPort
    Express (the network name does not change).
    3 Open AirPort Utility, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a
    Macintosh
    4 Select your AirPort Express and click Configure.
    5 In the dialog that appears, make the following changes:
    Â Reset the AirPort Express password.
    Â Turn on encryption to activate password protection for your AirPort network. If you
    turn on encryption, enter a new password for your AirPort network.
    6 Click OK.
    AirPort Express restarts to load the new settings

  • I forgot the passcode to turn off restrictions. I have restored my iPad back to the factory settings and then synced it with the latest backup. The restrictions are still on and it is asking for the passcode. Can someone tell me how to get that off.

    I forgot the passcode to turn off restrictions. I have restored my iPad back to the factory settings and then synced it with the latest backup. The restrictions are still on and it is asking for the passcode. Can someone tell me how to get that off.

    The only option is to wipe the device clean and restore it to factory settings.  Hope you have a backup.
    Follow the instructions in  iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to restore the device to factory settings.
    Once you have setup the device as a new one, you can then sync it back with your iTunes account and all your music, apps, contacts and any other content sync'ed with iTunes will be loaded on the device. Any content that is stored only on the device and not sync'ed with iTunes, like app logins or data, will be lost during this process. Be forewarned that this is a long process and can take a couple of hours or more to complete. This can be painful, but it is necessarily so to prevent users from working around the security settings. After the restore is complete, you can setup a new Restrictions passcode. Make a note of the passcode to avoid this situation in future.
     Cheers, Tom
