Internet not working for limited accounts ....

My sister is a 30 year employee of "Big Blue". She recently purchased an iMac for her kids, and called me in a tizzy last night. We solved a number of small misconceptions, however, there is one major issue, I can't quite figure out.
She was having extremely slow internet speed. Compared settings etc to her PC's, and all was correctly setup. It sounded like a DNS timeout issue, and I found this link: http://technocrat.net/d/2008/8/23/48134
which indeed solved her slowness problem.
However, what's very strange, and I can't seem to find any solution online is that she made the internet settings changes to use the OpenDNS servers in her privileged account. Now, when she logs out, and logs back in into one of her children's accounts, there is no internet connectivity at all.
Safari immediately comes up with a a "server not found" error. Instantaneously.
Checking the network panel, all the settings made in her admin account are still set.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Thanks for the response.
Actually the OpenDNS settings carried through, we did verify them in the Network panel, although we specifically did not attempt to re-enter the values, as they were in place.
Prior to the change to OpenDNS in the admin account, all accounts worked, although all of them worked slowly. I would have expected that if it were a matter of the settings not carrying over, that the other accounts would have continued to work, albeit slowly. Instead these accounts have stopped working completely.
I will, however, have my sister double check, and re-enter those values.

  • Automatic update doesn't work for limited account in windows XP sp3

    Hello,
    When I try update firefox using search for update in "about firefox" window with a limited account in Windows XP sp3, it searched (circle is running) then nothing happens (circle continues running with the text "search for update" continues showing). Automatic update never happens too even with option "install automatically updates" checked. The option "Use a background service for install updates" is checked too. This behaviour begins with Firefox 29 (Australis theme). Updates worked on previous version. I used Firefox with French localization so maybe my translation of menus, options and buttons are not right. I try to give "modify" rights for the limited account on "Mozilla Firefox" folder and "Mozilla Maintenance Service" folder but it doesn't work too. Is it a known bug ? I found on bugzilla this ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=711475 ) but it is said resolved fixed. Or there is an another solution ? Thanks for your support.

    I used full installers for install Firefox. Reinstallations (uninstallation, restart pc then installation) with limited account and administrator account don't allow automatic updates for limited accounts. Only automatic updates for administrator account worked and work for both of reinstallations. Manual updates work but don't solve this problem.

  • Script logic not working for GL account with Zero balance

    Dear Experts,
    I have a scenario where the GL account balance in ECC is 0  and when a script logic runs in BPC the same should capture a closing balance as "1".
    Though I have written the below logic, this is not getting executed and writing back the value as "1".
    Kindly help me on the same.
    *WHEN ENTITY
    *IS "ABC"
    *WHEN ACCOUNT
    *IS "20300000"
    *REC(EXPRESSION = 11, ACCOUNT = 20300000,FLOW = F99, ENTITY = ABC, PROFITCENTER  = 130010 ,  INTERCO = I_NONE , CONSOSCOPE = G_NONE, CURRENCY = LC ,CATEGORY = ACTUAL, AUDITID = INPUT)
    *ENDWHEN
    *ENDWHEN
    *COMMIT

    Hello Vadim Kalinin,
    Thanks for the very swift help.
    Merger of the client happened in 2007. ECC is using the " 20300000- change in fair value " account to record both pre-acquisition and post-acquisition values.
    Since the treatment of pre-consolidation and post consolidation reserves is different the split of the amount between pre and post-acquisition values has to be done. For the same post acquisition value is reduced from this account using a script logic as below.
    WHEN FLOW
    *IS "F99"
    *WHEN ENTITY
    *IS "ABC"
    *REC(EXPRESSION = ([ACCOUNT].[20300000] -3258603),ACCOUNT = 20300000,FLOW = F99,  INTERCO = I_NONE , CONSOSCOPE = G_NONE ,CURRENCY = LC ,CATEGORY = ACTUAL )
    This logic worked when the account has a figure, but in July 2014 in ECC the account had a transaction and the balance has become Zero. Until this account has a figure this pre acquisition logic is not working.
    For making this work, I am trying to write a new logic to make the balance of this account as "1" in BPC through the script logic.
    Kindly suggest me on the same.
    Regards,
    Shilpa

  • IPhone emails not working for 2 accounts?

    Hi all...
    running an iPhone account thru our mail.domianname.com INCOMING email servers for one account is fine, ie you can just tap and emails are delv'd to the iPhone. Yet another account set up exactly same way on anothter iPhone for another user at that same domain (set them both up using exactly same config except for account name/pw) does not work. I continue to get a "can't connect to the server" notice...
    can i ask (both are POP accts) why that might be? also, how can I change from a POP account to try the IMAP settings...
    Jim

    For the problem account, try deleting and recreating the account.
    also, how can I change from a POP account to try the IMAP settings...
    If the email account provider for the email account supports accessing the account as an IMAP account or as a POP account, you can't change the settings for an account from POP to IMAP after the account has been created as a POP account. You must delete and recreate the account choosing IMAP as the account type when prompted along with having the account settings for creating and accessing the account as an IMAP account.

  • Retention Policy not working for OWA accounts

    I have Exchange 2010 running, with 100% of users using OWA, not Outlook as their mail client.
    I have one use that wants to have messages in all his folders deleted at the end of each day.  Specifically, these folders are under the Inbox, but are subfolders in the Inbox, not the Inbox itself.
    I set up a retention policy tag with the Tag Type "All other Folders in the Mailbox", with age limit for retention for 1 day, and the action to delete and allow recovery.
    Then I applied the Retention policy just to that one users.
    The next morning, all the messages from the day before were still there.  Did I miss something in the setup?
    Does the "1 day" retention delete messages after 24 hours of the message being there, or at the end of each day can I have it delete all the previous messages?
    Does this have something to do with the fact that we are running OWA, not Outlook?  I can right click on the folders and view retention policy...it just says "Use Parent Folder Policy"...nowhere can I find the parent folders policy.
    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    For your retention policy not working issue, we can try the following troubleshooting:
    1. Please check whether it has Event ID 9017 and 9018, to make sure the MRM working well.
    2. Please check the Managed Folder Assistant service is working well.
    3. Please use MFCMAPI Tool to check the "PR_MESSAGE_DELIVERY_TIME" and "PR_CREATION_TIME" properties on the items that should be removed.
    If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.
    Thanks,

  • Exchange 2013 OOF not working for migrated accounts

    We are having a problem with the Out of Office responses in Exchange 2013. 
    We are getting the error “Your automatic reply settings cannot be displayed because the server is currently unavailable. 
    Try again later.”  I have been through several help articles that I found on the internet and so far none have resolved the problem. 
    Autodiscover is working as expected when connecting an Outlook client – and I can access the url identified by the “Test Email AutoConfiguration” tool for OOF – it returns the xml document as expected. New accounts created in this domain work, but the
    problem occurs accounts that were migrated from Server 2003 domain running Exchange 2007. I can also access the OOF settings for a migrated account using OWA. The new domain is 2012 and Exchange 2013 and accounts are being migrated using ADMT through a trust,
    which is working as expected.  Only the accounts have been migrated (not mailboxes) and I am not planning to connect the old exchange to the new to do mailbox moves – instead I am just planning to export psts from the old Exchange 2007 server
    and then import them to the 2013 server.  The client dns settings are correct and all other connectivity seems fine. 
    Any ideas are greatly appreciated.  I have also tried creating a new Outlook profile, turning off Cached Mode, and creating an entirely new Windows profile and Outlook profile. 
    I have also tried using Outlook 2007, Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013. 

    I solved this - EWS was disabled for the mailbox.  Set-CASMailbox -Identity User -EWSEnabled $true fixed the problem.

  • Embedded Flash not working for limited access users?

    Hi there,
    Im currently having an issue with Flash 10.1 on a new student image im creating,
    After testing the install of 10.1.122.64 this is the findings i made:-
    As administrator i could run Mainstream Flash players such as BBC iplayer and youtube
    As limited user i could also run mainstream flash players
    As administrator i could run embedded flash videos
    as limited user i could not run embedded flash videos
    This is proving somewhat a big issue as the machines we have that cant run embedded flash videos some of them have Adobe Web design CS5 and they are unable to test their flash videos through IE8
    Our current image uses Windows XP with IE8 and office 2010 amongst other things
    if you need any more information please let me know.
    Thanks

  • Internet not working for a current time!!!!!!

    My Interenet has been going out at the same time every night around 11pm -12am. I also have phone service through comcast which also obviously goes out. It does not come back on for hours. I work from home and teach classes on the internet. This is REALLY a problem. I have called numerous times in the past months and had a tech come out with no solution. I try to send a refresh and it ALWAYS fails. It has even failed when the Customer Service Rep assists. I am thinking about replacing the box. If this does not help I will change my service. I have had Comcast in a different city in the past and never had these issues. FYI: My Cable TV always works fine.

    Review the troubleshooting tips at this sticky and post the downstream power levels, downstream SNR and upstream power levels on all channels.  Before you replace the gateway, the signals need to be confirmed that they are in spec.

  • Keyboard shortcuts from Greek Input not working for my account only

    I just upgraded to Leopard from Tiger 10.4.11 on my MBP 2.4 listed below. The Installer took care of everything, and after it was finished, my own account, the only Admin account, misbehaves when it comes to keyboard shortcuts in the Finder or any other app. To use the shortcuts, the Input flag must US English. If it's Greek, nothing works.
    If I switch to the other two accounts on my Mac, one of which was carried over from the Tiger setup, the other I setup after the OS upg, both of which are Std accounts, not Admin, shortcuts work regardless of the keyboard input flag.
    Tips, anyone?

    That's alright, folks, problem solved:
    Ran Leopard Cache Cleaner, and selected from Caches the third option (deep clean).
    Thanks, anyway. Hope this may help some other poor sod.

  • Password will not work for Mac account

    Hello,
    When I'm using the Mail app, it won't recognize my @mac.com accounts password and I can't get my mail.
    It is the same password I use to log on here, why doesn't it work?

    why not delete the account in your mail app and add it again.
    that way, you can add your new password when you re-enter your account in your mail app/program.
    good luck.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:

    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Substitution written under cost center accounting is not working for tcode MB1B but working for MIGO_GI

    Hi All
    Do you know why this behaviour different for subtitution written under cost center accounting.
    We have written substitution using coding block table. Logic of substitution is in case of any GL maintained in a set is being used for posting , then we will replace the cost center with profit center vlaue. Reason being we have same naming convention for Cost center and Profit center.
    Thanks
    Sonia

    Hi,
    MB1B is t-code for stock transfer posting.
    Stock transfer posting generate FI document using balance sheet account, not P&L account.
    Because you don’t create cost elements using balance sheet accounts related to stock, I think that Substitution written under cost center accounting is not working for tcode MB1B is right.
