Parental controls are blocking an allowed app

I am setting up a second user with parental controls to block out app store and limit the internet. One of my apps (an online trading app called fxtrade) won't launch even though I ticked it in the options box in the parental controls area- and even though I try to give it permission by putting in my password. any ideas?P

There are a variety of Adobe services that need to remain enabled in order for Photoshop to work.
I would log in to the administrator account and make sure anything with Adobe is set to "allow."
Then, log in to the restricted account and test. If Photoshop works as expected, you can turn off one item at a time until you find the one that "breaks" Photoshop's functionality.

  • Parental Controls are blocking photoshop.

    I have parental controls set up for another user on the computer.  I check photoshop as a program that is allowed to be used, but somehow each time they log in, photoshop has been unchecked and they are not allowed to use it.  A dialogue pops up that says it is blocked by parental controls and gives three options: OK (which simply closes the box), Allow Always..., and Allow Once...  "Allow Once" works correctly and opens photoshop for the current session, but "Allow Always" takes in the user name and password, then reopens the origina dialogue box telling me that photoshop is blocked by parental controls.  Any ideas of why this is happening or how to fix it?

  • Parental Controls are not working correctly.  Websites I've listed under Allow Access are still blocked.  How can I fix this?

    Parental Controls are not working correctly.  There are websites I've listed under Allow Access, however they are still blocked. - such as:  Yahoo mail and USAA banking.  How can I fix this?

    Just thought I'd let you know.  Our suspicions were correct, it was the OS. After I installed Snow Leopard (10.6.8) all the problems were corrected.  I also updated the RAM from 1 gb to 6 gb. The mac is working all around better. Sorry it took so long to get back to everyone. My superdrive had pooped out. Rather than replace it I got an external drive from OWC connected with firewire 800.  So far everything is running very well, as far as I can tell this external drive is better than the original superdrive. My superdrive has always acted funny, infact I returned the first mac I got after a week because its superdrive was also malfunctioning. Anyway, all that to say everything seems to be fully functioning again.

  • Youtube Safety Mode will turn on if Windows 7 Parental Controls are enabled.

    Youtube Safety Mode will turn on if Windows Parental Controls are enabled.
    If I disable parental controls, safety mode safety mode will turn itself off. But if parental controls are re-enabled, safety mode will turn itself on. If I then try to turn it off manually, it says that it's been disabled, but it still stays on.
    The only parental control that's enabled is the time limits. There are no other restrictions enabled. There is no other filtering software installed. It is doing this on three separate machines.
    This is a problem specific to Firefox. Chrome and Internet Explorer do not exhibit this behavior. For the moment, they are using Chrome, as I do not wish to turn off parental controls.
    This is recent behavior, within the last week or so. Prior to this, it didn't have any problems at all. I don't have an exact date when it started, but it sounds like it was one of the last few upgrades.
    Is there a configuration setting to tell Firefox to not look at parental controls?

    Apologies. I hadn't realized info here didn't filter its way back.
    There was already a bug filed. If anyone else reading this has this issue, please comment there.

  • Parental controls are not blocking specific web sites

    For your title question, Click on the Apple in the upper left-hand corner then Preferences, then Parental Controls to update those to your liking.
    Here is a link to the Apple support and information page for New to Mac users:

  • EA4500 Parental Controls are not flexible.

    1) Why does it not save my time schedule.  Ex.  If I have built a time schedule for a device, and then decide to temporatily override the schedule (block always, or never) when I go back to the schedule it's gone and replaced by some default schedule.  I end up rebuilding the schedule every time which I can't even do from my mobile.  The internet in my house is used as a punishment/reward system for other behariors so I go through this all the time.  The old software was much more flexible in this respect.
    2) Why can I build a list of saved schedules and apply them to a device (or devices) as needed and change as often as needed.  The old software allowed this.
    3) Device groups.  Why can't I group devices.  I have two sons and each has 3 or 4 devices (pc, phone, Playstation, etc).  I would like to be able to group these devices and be able to apply restrictions to the group.  For example when son has homework I want to turn all his stuff off until it's done, then go back to the schedule on all devices.  I need to be able to do this easily in one step, from my mobile.
    Please add these features and flexibility.  I'm sure may parents will benefit.
    Thank you ,

    Let me know the model number of the Router? The Parental controls feature may vary among various models. There are only two Linksys/Cisco router like E4200 v1 and E1200 v2 has an access features offer both Internet Access Policy and Parental controls where in you can restrict the Internet according to the specified timings.
    Here is the link which will help you in setting it up for restricting Internet access: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=47ca0674f26d425e81592ca55ba3152b_21460.xml&pid=80&...
    Second you cannot edit the time frame except the provided one. Well you have to wait for the future firmware release which can add the support for editing the time.

  • Wtih Parental Controls on, need to allow run application from CD

    Hello
    I have restricted my sons access/login using the parental controls and everything is working well except that some of his apps run from CD i.e. Wiggles stuff
    Anyway, with parental controls on his login does not allow these to run, we get a permission denied error. Is there any preference/control in Tiger or Leopard that will allow his apps to run?
    Thanks
    Rick

    Boot Camp is most likely to work, but requires that you restart the computer to change OSes; nearly all Windows applications will work through this method.
    Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion run Windows from inside Mac OS X through emulation. Applications which require direct hardware access likely won't work, and this method is slower than Boot Camp. It is more convenient to use, as no restarts are needed.
    CrossOver Mac and CrossOver Games translate the Windows instructions directly to Mac OS X ones. This is the cheapest method if you don 't already have Windows and the least compatible one.
    Stating which applications you want to use will enable more specific advice to be provided.

  • ITunes can't access shared library when Vista parental controls are on

    I started a thread back on March 1 2008, but it got archived before it could be answered, see:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1420673&tstart=0
    I'm using 64 bit Vista with iTunes version of 8.0.2.20, but I don't believe this issue has anything to do with the 64 bit versus 32 bit iTunes versions.
    The exact message is:
    "The shared library "libraryname" is not responding. (-39)
    Check that any firewall software running on either the shared computer or this computer has been set to allow communication on port 3689."
    But if I turn off Parental Controls, the shared library is accessible, it all works fine. This has nothing to do with the iTunes store (and potential web site blocking), I just want to allow shared library access while leaving parental controls on.
    Any ideas?

    This question has been around for almost two years now with no answer...very frustrating and disappointing that no one from Apple can step in and assist. I have set up the port number on my firewalls, both Windows and McAfee, as per the iTunes message and it still does not work...so I am now at a loss.
    Turn off parental conrols and it all works perfectly...turn it on and library is visible but not accessible...PLEASE can someone help with this!!!
    Thanks.

  • Parental Controls(Enable Restrictions) and installing apps through ITunes store (PC)

    Through Parental control(Restrictions), the iTunes Store and Installing apps can be disabled on iPhone. Now is this feature can prevent apps getting installed if Apps are purchased through iTunes Store in PC and synced with iTunes? Is it possible to disable syncing with iTunes?

    So you are saying that, even if there is Restrictions, with iTunes and Installing apps disabled, applications can be purchased through iTunes in PC and can be synced with iPhone and get the applications installed. Is that a correcy assumption?

  • Safari can't open a specific web page when parental controls are enabled and don't give access to modify the dock.

    iMac running mountain lion with all updates applied.
    I (my kids) are trying to use www.coolmath-games.com and when I have parental controls enabled and I do not give the ability to modify the dock the page comes up blank.
    It doesn't matter how I have the web controls set (I said allow all just to be sure).
    If I toggle on "allow user to modify the dock" the above page works.  If I toggle it off, then the page doesn't work.
    I *think* this page worked in Lion, but I don't know for sure.  The kids just started complaining about it after I updated to mountain lion.
    Any suggestions?

  • Parental controls are unstable

    I run osx 10.8.2 on my Imac and administer to my 5 kids accounts that I have on my computer. when on thier accounts everything is unstable. If I allow a certain program it might not allow them to use it or it might let them use it but only after they click on it fifty times. also web sites that I allow them to use randomly get "forgoten" and they can no longer access them. this is really anoying for all the sub applications.

    Double check to make sure your PC settings are correct.  Then use Software Update to update your OS  to 10.8.3.  Also, update everything SU has to offer for your computer.  When done, repair permissions and restart your computer.
    A couple of links that may or may not offer a solution:

  • Parental controls are disabling Safari.

    I am trying to set up an account on my Macbook v.10.6.8 for my 7 yr old.  He is going to have online classwork this year and I want to limit his access to the internet.  The moment I enable parental controls, his account no longer has access to safari.  I have made sure that the safari box is checked, but it is just showing as a "?".

  • Parental Controls are so user un-friendly: can't open yahoo e-mails

    I picked the parental controls option where I have to approve individually each site they go to. As my kid goes to his yahoo e-mail, I have to approve each time he clicks--entering his password, opening a mail, etc. THen, opening a message, it says, error--file content not found. Isn't there a way to allow for regular yahoo e-mail usage with parental controls?

    I had the same problem too.
    I searched by using bing.com (fortunately MS search engin has helped me )
    I found a archived post https://discussions.apple.com/message/11061084#11061084
    I did what Carolyn said and I also checked the PeerGuardian app
    but I don't think it's because of this app that my connection wasn't possible, because I rarely use it.
    Et voilà, everything works now.
    I'd like to thank Carolyn and Rave for allowing me to do not format my dear iBook G4 that I haven't formated for over 3 years!!! (I've done the whole backup of my iBook)
