Parent controls stopping access to Word?

Hi-
In our school computer lab, I've...
..installed Office 2011 under local Admin account on an iMac
..set limit apps in Parent Controls, but Office (Word) is not there
so, when I log into the local Student account, click the blue W, "You do not have permission to run this program"
How to fix and keep all other restrictions?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi. I found this from Cisco’s KB site:
16. Can I set Access Restrictions specifically for the Guest network?
No. Restrictions set on your main network like Internet restrictions policy and Parental Controls also apply to the Guest network. You cannot set a separate protocol for the Guest access feature.

  • EA6500 Parental Control or Access Restrictions question

    I have been looking into this router, I woujld like to know if I can enable Parental controls or access restrictions to block a MAC or IP address; from 03:00 AM - 06:00 AM ?
    Instead of Midnight to 6:00 am.
    My E4200 works just fine, Just would like to know if the EA6500 Can do that ?
    Thanks
    Chris
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yes, you can block a device on the network from accessing the internet from 3 AM to 6 AM.
    Screen snippet I just took from my EA6500:
    As for blocking it by IP address or MAC Address directly, no you can't, you have to select it from the device list, but from what I've seen, you have to do that on the E4200 as well, so that's nothing different.
    There have been people expierencing issues with their device lists on the EA6500, but I've rarely had any since a few fimeware updates ago, and usually refreshing the page or clicking the in-page refresh button, fixes those when they do happen to occur. (In my case.)
    And in response the the second post, although it's only apart of the wireless and unrelated to parental controls, the EA6500 does have MAC Filtering:

  • Parental Controls - Internet Access Stopped!

    My wife has a white MacBook running Leopard 10.5.8.  It has worked fine for two years.  Nothing was changed.  She could not change anythign due to being logged into a managed account.
    It could always access the internet over our home (or any available) WiFi perfectly.  All of a sudden, yesterday afternoon, her managed account with "Parental Controls" enabled cannot access any internet.  Safari mentions that it cannot access the server.  When checking the network setting all seems fine, it can access the WiFi router.
    The administrator account can access the internet over WiFi just fine.
    I created another account called Test.  In standard mode it can access the internet over WiFi just fine, but when i turn on "Parental Controls" Safari, or any other internet related program cannot access the internet.  This includes the software update in the Finder.
    What's going on?  i have found similar issues on the Apple Support Communities going back unanswered to 2007!

    Beach Dude,
    I have the same problem, and have had on virtually every operating system since Parental Controls was introduced.
    I have multiple kids with individual accounts. THe perplexing thing is that if I enable parental controls on my daughter's account,  it works fine. I can set time limits, etc... and it works! But if I so much as turn on parental controls in my youngest son's account, every web browser is unable to connect to the internet at all from his account.
    BUGGY software. And apple knows it is buggy, but it isn't core system stuff so they ignore the problem.  I even tried setting up a new account for him and moving his old files over and resetting permissions. Still the same problem.
    I've searched high and low for a solution and found none. I have found a limited number of users with the same complaint...and absolute silence from apple....
    There is nothing on these boards that has worked, and I've tried several different solutions.  Most responses are the useless kind, "change the setting in parental controls" kind of sophomoric advice from people who just assume what the problem is instead of reading our description of it.
    Anyway, I haven't found a good alternate software solution for limiting the time and hours for children's accounts; but I did find an excellent tool for managing internet content access. It is called opendns and it is free and it works!  Do a google search for "opennds" if your primary concern is managing access to web content.  If you come up with a good solution for fixing parental controls so that it doesn't just cut off web access, please let me know here - or if you find an alternate software solution that allows an administrator to set time limits for standard accounts, I would like to know that too.

  • E4200 Firmware 1.0.03 Parental Controls/ Intenet Access Policies not kicking in.

    I have configured my e4200 to block traffic at certian times uses both the Parental Controls and the Intenet Access Polices.  Neither one seems to work though.  The traffic just keeps flowing.
    I have the following summary in my IAP:
    1    9toMidStoT                 Deny  Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu   21:30 - 23:55
    2    midto6AMEveryday   Deny   Every Day                              00:00 - 06:00
    3    AllowDays                  Allow Every Day                                06:00 - 21:30
    4    Late                             Allow  Fri, Sat                                    21:30 - 23:55
    Each of the four rules is enabled.
    I have the same MAC addresses specified in each rule.  Initally I had only the first two rules.  Those didn't work, so I added rule 3 and 4 (they do the same thing as rules 1 and 2 but from the opposite direction).  There are no compliaints, but they don't stop any traffic. 
    I started with the Parental Controls, they didn't work either.  The page in there that lets you pick which machines you want to block seemed next to worthless.  I have about four rows listed as "Network Device."  REALLY LAME!  As the MAC addresses are accesible and these weren't working I went to the IAP. 
    Does anyone else have this working?  Is this feature broken in 1.0.03?  I had it working in 1.0.01.
    Thanks!

    What happens when you set "block internet access" to always? I have also had weird experiences with this feature.
    For example, as I am typing this message, I have instructed the router to block all internet access on this computer (using parental controls), yet I am still able to visit this forum; although, other websites are blocked. I'll also try your rules and see what effect they have on my computer.
    I also agree with you about the annoying "network device" issue that happens when the router isn't able to identify the devices' hostnames. There are also devices that appear in that list, which haven't seen in my DHCP table for awhile.
    I don't work for Cisco. I'm just here to help.

  • Parental control - disk access limit

    i work in a university department with about 40 students sharing 8 macs. some of them work with video and audio as part of their studies. only a couple of them could be called experienced. we've created separate accounts for all of them.
    the problem is that the startup disk fill up very quickly. buying more hd space would not solve the problem, but i do try to teach them some 'file hygiene'. at the same time i want to totally strip down their access to the startup disk, only allowing them to store to their personal external drives.
    i'm looking at parental control and reduced finder, but can't figure a way to remove the 'documents' and 'shared' folders from the dock.
    is there another way?

    Well... You should be mounting their home directories off of network storage and using quotas. Network storage, though slower, means that they only have data in one place and they aren't leaving stuff on the local machines (they can even work locally can copy it when done, and you can have something cleanup when they log out).
    Here's how to implement user disk quotas in OS X: http://www.secure-computing.net/wiki/index.php/HFS%2BDiskQuotas
    Most of the various network storage options you have will permit you to set disk quotas as well. NAS devices tend to offer this feature, as do most commonly used operating systems used for file servers (FreeBSD, Linux, Mac OS X, even lowly Windows).

  • Parental controls - printer access

    I have set parental controls for my daughter's laptop and I'm finding them a little too controlling!  In particular, it requires my consent for accessing our wifi home printer (not a problem, I've approved that) but then also for the printer at her school. Other than turning off controls for a day to allow her to get authorized for whatever printers they have at the school, and hoping that the authorization will last, is there a way to exclude printing from the parental controls in the first place? 
    Thanks

    Never mind!  Found the box to uncheck for printer admin.

  • WGM - Parental Controls allow access to the following websites only...

    Hi...I have been asked to set all the students in our school with a whitelist only Internet list.  I am managing this by group in WGM using parental controls - managed always - checked box "Limit access to websites by" - drop down box "allow access to the following websites only." This is working exactly the way it is supposed to BUT apple.com is being allowed even though it is not in the list.  Is there a way to blacklist apple.com?  Thanks for any ideas or advice!

    Now why am I not surprised....?

  • Why is there an error 107 SSL connection when using parental controls and accessing webmail?

    All browsers (Safari, Firefox, Chrome) do not allow my parentally controlled child to access gmail accounts. Putting the gmail website address in the permitted websites doesn't make them accessible.

  • Parental Controls Stops Ipad and TV connecting to ...

    I set up parental controls as teeenages son now has a lap top in his room but now the only thinh that can connect to the interenet is my laptop and our phones.
    I deleted parental controls but the tv (well the roku box) and the ipad still can't connect.   The ipad redirects to a BT page saying parental controls are blocking this page (google) . The roku box just gives us an error.
    I am some what baffled by the talk of DNS and the only info i can find is for a mac computer not a device.
    Can anyone help me get things working ?  Also is there anything i can just install on his laptop that will be simpilar than this carry on ?  (it a PC laptop if its important )
    Thanks

    Provided that the iPad was using the normal automatic network settings, and you had not modified them, and Smart Setup was turned off, then Parental Controls would not have stopped it working.
    There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

  • Google Chromecast stopped work - Parental controls...

    Hi
    I have been using a Chromecast to watch Netflix on my Sony Bravia TV and it has worked fine for several months. Now it has stopped working and I see the message "Chromecast connected to -BT Hub name- but can't access the internet":
    The only thing that I can think of that has changed is my I'm on hte BT Parental Controls trial. This allows me to restrict internet access at hte household/router level. I've disabled these completely (see screenshot below) and reconfigured the Chromecast, including a factory reset, but I can't seem to get past this message.
    All other internet access works fine - nothing is blocked. I've even unboxed my 2nd Chromecast and set that up and it has the same issue.
    Could it be that the Parental Controls have changed hte settings in the Hub? Maybe somethign to do with UPnP?
    Any help welcomed.
    Richard

    Hi,
    I have had the same problem and have been tearing my hair out trying to solve it!!
    The solution I found was as follows:
    go into hub manager and do the following
    turn off smart set up
    switch off Upnp control
    Then log into My BT and turn off parental controls and delete parental control settings.  
    This last action is the most important part as I already guessed ti was the parental controls stopping the Chromecast from accessing the internet, but turning off the parental controls didn't work alone!
    although this doesn't help with keeping your children safe, there are other means to control what they access on the internet and until BT sort out this problem I won't be using their parental controls.  
    I hope this helps
    My kids are happy now they can watch Netflix and Play films.

  • Non admin removing parental control

    Re subject above, I have non admin users who claim and have removed the parental control of access time limits by entering key sequence at boot.
    How can that be stopped?

    I don't believe it.
    What key sequence?
    They would have to know an "admin" password to make any system changes.

  • Parental Controls bug in Mountain Lion 10.8.2

    For years I've used Parental Controls, not to restrict my daughter's web content, but to limit her time on the computer.  But tonight I upgraded Mountain Lion from 10.8.1 to 10.8.2 and something broke.
    Suddenly every secure web page she tries to access (to include google, gmail, amazon, etc.) fails.  It says "Parental controls restricts access to secure websites".
    A little hunting around turned up the following Apple Knowledge Base article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2900 that says "https note: For websites that use SSL encryption (the URL will usually begin with https), the Internet content filter is unable to examine the encrypted content of the page. For this reason, encrypted websites must be explicitly allowed using the Always Allow list. Encrypted websites that are not on the Always Allow list will be blocked by the automatic Internet content filter."
    I understand that logic however that should NOT apply to me since I'm not trying to automatically restrict her adult web content or create allowed/blocked site lists, etc.  She has *unrestricted* web site access, so the Internet content filter shouldn't even be in play here.
    Just to get this up and running, I did type the Admin account and password in at the prompt to let her gain access to the web pages.  However that did not work.  Even though it said it would now allow access - it did not.
    I also tried going into Parental Controls, turning ON web site filtering, going into Custom, and adding in approved secure web sites (google, etc.)  Even *that* did not work.
    Everything was great until 10.8.2 came along but now her account is for all intents and purposes unusable.
    Help?  And thanks.

    Same problem here. Apple seems to be neglecting the parental controls. First, they broke X11: http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/ticket/439. 10.8.1 didn't address that problem. Not only does 10.8.2 not address the X11 bug, it actually breaks secure web browsing!
    Just to add a little more information, secure browsing on Safari seems to work OK for me once authorized. However, neither Firefox nor Chrome work with any secure site even after they have been authorized. Unfortunately, my daughter's school site is secure and it doesn't work on Safari so her Mac is useless for school now.
    Looks like I'll have to restore using Time Machine and not update again until I know this has been addressed.
    Apple, I'm not impressed.

  • Actiontec MI424 Advanced Parental Controls Loophole

    There are 5 PC's on my home network. I want to block my sons PC from the internet on specific days if the week. I have tried parental controls and access controls but they do not work. This is because they block PC's based on computer name. Everytime he starts his computer he changes his computer name and gets a new IP. I have been told that you cannot block a PC based on MAC address but I think this is what I need to do. Can anyone give me instructions to configure the router to block this PC that is not based on PC name? 

    Go into advanced settings, IP address distribution, and at the bottom click on connections.
    It should show his current PC Name, connection, IP and MAC address.
    To the right side you will see a magnifier glass that shows connection informatin, a pencil, and a X.
    If you click on the pencil it will open a the window below. If you select static, DHCP will always assign the same address to his PC based on the MAC address. You can select the address that you want the PC to use each time the PC boots.
    Here you can also define the PC name that the router will use.
    Regardless, the router should show the name of his PC. If he changes the name of his PC take administrative rights away from him.

  • Lion Parental Controls

    Hey I got lion a few months ago and my dad has parental controls set up n my computer and 7/10 time when i go to a website it gives me this message "webprocess attempted to access a secure website" then the url of the website and Parental Controls restricts access to secure websites. To add this website to your approved list, click Add Website. To do this, you need an administrator password.  But then it still allows me to go to the website.  So right now its just really annoying.  Does anyone know what to do to fix this?

    Nobody? Looks like we are stuck with this then. Nice one Apple, why can't you leave stuff alone if it works?
