Question on how to lock down an iPad for demonstration in my store.

I work for an Apple reseller and we have a few demo iPads. The are running the current apple supplied demo content but we have a problem. We have a guy who comes in here every day and downloads his own apps and sets all of the apps to Chinese. We can't use the built in restrictions because they are disabled on demo iPads.
I was wondering if there is a way to keep people from downloading their own apps and from changing app settings. We have to restore them about 3 times a week and it is getting to be a hassle. I tried google to no avail.
Thanks.

  • How to lock down the ipad for employee use

    I would like to know if they is any app or something that I can use to lock the ipad down for small business use.
    The last thing I want is my employees checking their facebook on my ipads.

    What's the need for a business plan thousands of people buyt touch pads and computers every day and don't know how to use them. More or less they end up being paper weights. Beside the restrictions are instented to stop misuse. And who said he didn't have a business plan. the ipads replace pen and paper and so employee enter information directly into the server. This lets the employee be mobile and still do their work. It's being done in places all around the world.  Ipad is an computer for the most part.
    U going to tell me he should not use computers next?  Maybe he should enter track important information at all?
    it's funny how one question of how do I restrict access on an ipad turns into an inquisition.
    Name any major corporation that let's their employee do whatever they want on their computers?  Name a College?
    That's why these companies build in this security stuff any way. You are protecting your investment by taking the proper steps to make sure that the equiptment is not misused. Where do you work where your Boss let's you do whatever you want on his or her computer. Play games? Get viruses?
    You seem to making some kind of special assumptions because it's a ipad.
    Same this goes for printers, copying machines, and coffee machines. You never give people unlimited access to any thing unless you wan to call the service man 20 times a week.

  • Best Practise to lock down server 2012 for Junior Admins

    We require locking down the desktop for junior admins. Essentially we would like for them to only access specific tools and applications.
    Below are examples of specific tools they would require access to however, if we want to block out everything else then what is the best way to go about that? I would image a combination of group rights? how best to handle this?
    Examples
    All Programs->Accessories->System Tools->System Information. then export report.
    "ipconfig /all
    go to Run and then type "systeminfo" and capture all data.

    You can use security group and delegation of administration model.

    Hi Baem_leeds
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If you change your Apple ID you will need to sign in with the new information or password the next time you use an Apple service or feature that uses Apple ID. If you have multiple devices that use features and services that require an Apple ID, you will need to sign in again on each device.

  • How do I lock down an iPad from having certain apps removed?

    Hello,
    We are a Microsoft-based enterprise that has purchased iPad 2 devices as a means of reducing costs of wireless services as well as integration with the 3G adapter (to reduce damage and theft). While I have had great success with the iPhone Configuration Utility and an MDM server, I need to ensure that users cannot remove the Find My iPad App which we use to track employees and ensure they do not lose or steal the device (since they can't remove the battery).
    What can I do to lock down this app from being removed and also, I want to give these employees access to load whatever they wish on these iPad units. We control their access through a VPN to a Microsoft Terminal Server and with Microsoft Exchange but I don't want iTunes and the CEO's credit card being used to purchase apps. Any ideas anyone? I know that this can be done and if not, it will be done by me.

    I'm not sure about the apps, but to prevent theft, you'll also need to disable the power button and the ability to restore the ipad. You might also want to superglue in your Sim card because if they remove that, it wont be tracked unless they connect to WiFi.
    Also, I'm not so sure it is an app on the iPad. I think it is built into the mail, calendar and contacts options if you have a Mobile me account.  http://www.apple.com/ipad/find-my-ipad-setup/

  • How to lock wallpaper in Ipad

    Hello!
    I am responsible for 60 iPads in a school. I have researched for a solution to prevent students from changing wallpaper, but until now I don't have sucess.
    Would be excelent to block, because I need to keep always school logo screen. Below I found an idea: to lock down the desktop .plist file, but I don't know how to access this file.
    Anyone knows? Anyone has an idea to prevent students from changing wallpaper?

    Currently, there appears to be no way to lock it. Maybe in the new iOS 8.

  • My whole iPad screen is pink and blue I don't know what happened can someone answer my question and how can I help my iPad from the pink and blue screen

    Thank u very much if you helped me and in the message can u also include how I can fix my ipad thank u very much 

    You may very well have to restore the iPad eventually, but start by rebooting the iPad and see if that helps, before you start doing anything too drastic.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Form validation from within composer - how to lock down admin forms??

    Hello we have many space admin level users who have the privilege to add content and remove it from their pages as they see fit, however when modifying pages from inside webcenter composer there is no validation on user input / error checking. This causes many problems with users entering things improperly, or even causing bugs (such as with content presenter - if you remove a file from UCM without removing it from the "add a file" template it will break the page).
    So my question is - how do I start adding form validation to all of these screens (such as those little wrenches in composer for a task flow, or customizable layout component)? Is there a way to customize form validation for all admin screens (space - manage all, app - administration, and composer screens)?
    Thanks,
    j

    Here is the custom validation script of your drop-down.
    Make sure you tick the option to commit the selected value immediately:
         var sNewSel = event.value;
         switch (sNewSel) {
           case "ProductNo1":
             this.getField("ItemDescription").value = "blah, blah";
             this.getField("Size").value = "blah, blah";
             this.getField("UnitPrice").value = "blah, blah";
             break;
         case "ProductNo2":
             this.getField("ItemDescription").value = "blah, blah";
             this.getField("Size").value = "blah, blah";
             this.getField("UnitPrice").value = "blah, blah";
             break;
         case "ProductNo3":
            this.getField("ItemDescription").value = "blah, blah";
            this.getField("Size").value = "blah, blah";
             this.getField("UnitPrice").value = "blah, blah";
             break;
         //etc.
    You will need to replace "ProductNoX" in the script with whatever your product numbers are in the drop down.

  • How to lock down "settings" on my ipod?

    I need to lock down my "settings" on my ipod. I don't want to merely block access to Safari, but I want to block access to the settings area of the ipod. I have found "folder lock" apps at the Apple store, but they seem to be predominantly aimed at hiding one's ****, which is not at all what I need. I found a number of apps that would be available if I wanted to jailbreak my ipod, which I don't want to do.
    Anyone have suggestions?

    Sorry, but you cannot lock the Settings in general. Only those items that appear in the Restrictions can be locked.
    Regards.

  • How can I manage multiple iPads for different students?

    Problem: I need to manage multiple iPads for my students with special needs. I need to download different apps to different iPads and I'm not sure how to keep their apps separate but still keep ultimate control of the units (i.e. lock them from loading anything on the apps that we at the school district haven't approved).
    I need to be the only one doing updates, loading software, etc., and don't want to keep using my own personal iTunes account...any suggestions?

    If the presenter is using a computer and everyone else has an iPad this is very easy and free. Just use http://join.me and on the iPad just download their free app

  • Can we lock down the system for BW object and not bex objects

    Hello,
    I have a question about object changeability. We want to lock down the BW production system but leave it open for adhoc query. Can we lock down the BW system only for few objects like Cubes, ODS, Infoobjects, Infosets, Multiproviders, and keep the system open for Bex objects like Query, varaibles and also for Infopackges and DTP's.
    Which tcode can we use for this ?
    Thanks,

    hi, usaully production system will be non changeable for all objects.. but as far as SAP BW is concerned we can make certain objects changeable by setting as follows..
    in production go to RSA1 - Transport Connection, select Object changeability button from tool bar, here you will find a list of objects which can be made changeable in a closed system.. just click on required objects and set it to Everything Changeable..

  • Solution Directory - How to lock a business process for a implement project

    We have Solution Directory assigned to a maintenance project and I understand the checkout/checkin process and how it locks the business process in the Solution.   What is the best practice when  you are starting a new IMPLEMENTATION project that will impact existing business processes that are in the Solution?  I know that I can copy from the solution to build the new project, but it doesnu2019t lock the BP from the solution.  
    I have a new Implementation project, that i want to checkout/pull existing business processes for the Solution Directory. 
    *How can these Business Processes be "locked" in Solution Directory as they are with a Maintenance project?*

    Kelly,
    You would use the maintenance project to make daily modifications.
    Consider the case of a O2C business scenario. You need to almost make daily configs etc, which get pushed through, such things will go into a maintenance project.
    But if you plan to enhance O2C with a CRM front end or include a better planning solution or TPM or something, then you are looking at an implementation project.
    Rule of thumb. Short Scale changes : Maintenance Project, Long term/major enhancements : Implementation Projects.
    Also In this case to speak about the lock down. Well the Solution Directory kind of takes care of that for you.
    I am assuming that you have a solution populated with business processes. So now if you want to enhance it with a new functionality, you would use an implementation project. So when you define the implementation project, and then navigate to Solar01, and try to add business scenarios , ensure that on the Structure tab you select the Solution as the source. This ensures you are copying content from your current, updated, productive solution. Once you do that, the implementation continues on its track, whilst daily support processes are managed with the check-in / check-out functionality of the Solution and the Maintenance Project.
    You technically do not need to lock the business processes down, since the Compare and Adjust functionality of a solution will help you identify the deltas  between the Solution and the implementation project and you can always make those adjustments post go-live and thus just update the Solution at one shot. Also remember that with SolMan 7.1 the Compare and Adjust functions can be used with Template, Implementation and Solutions in any permutation-combination.
    Hope this helps.
    Plz let me know if you need any additional information
    Cheers!!
