What happened to user restrictions on apps/sys prefs etc?

What happened to the user restrictions on system preferences and applications/utilities etc controls you used to have in the user account set-ups? (In Panther I think?) You used to be able to easily restrict a user to only certain applications and limited system preferences?
I can't seem to find it in Tiger (i'm running 10.4.8)? Have they changed this? I see you can have a admin, standard or modirated user - but this ability to restrict apps etc was essential for my machines.
Has it gone or am I just not looking in the right place?!

hi,
system preferences,
account,
select account,
parental control,
select system & finder
set your apps restrict preferences.
restrict user can't be an admin.

  • What happened to the createPDF mobile app.

    I can't find it in the app store anymore and links to it on the adobe website lead nowhere. Has this been discontinued? Any alternatives available?

    Never got a response so I bought Office Suite Pro 6 from the Google Play store.  It goes on sale every now and then.  Picked it up for 99 cents.  Has in-app converion of word to pdf (ie, not cloud based).  Works fine and pretty good Office app too.  Hope this helps.

  • What happened to my ipad weather app after upgrading to ios 7?

    What happened to my ipad weather app after upgrading to ios 7?

    If you are talking a built-in Weather app then that has never been included in iOS on iPads. If you mean a weather app that you downloaded from the store then which app is it ?

  • What happens to the data in apps that you choose not to backup with iCloud?

    Hi,
    I have a 64b iPad and a lot of the storage is used up with data stored inside apps. Some of these data stores are 10s of GB in size. Such as, I keep some videos on my iPad that I play with VLC player. When I upgraded the iPad to iOS5 and activated iCloud backup, it immediately told me there wasn't enough room to back up my iPad entirely. I turned off backing up certain apps, such as VLC.
    What happens to these apps? Are they still backed up during regular syncs with your Mac?

    when you plug into itunes you can backup to both locations (icloud and locally) just not a the same time. When you click on your phone in itunes you'll see this option
    click icloud then sync (will backup to icloud when you sync)
    afterwords
    click back to this computer and sync
    keep in mind that if icloud has a 5GB backup limite unless you upgrade it
    10GB — $20/year
    25GB — $40/year
    50GB — $100/year
    edit: forgot to say
    if you don't sync with itunes to the computer then whatever doesn't go to icloud is not backed up at all.

  • What happened to the free TouchPad app promo?

    I got my TouchPad yesterday, and it's great.
    But last night I treid to get the free apps that you posted on the Palm blog on Thursday and the codes didn't work. What happened?

    They set a limit on the number of downloads for each of the apps, apparently calculated to disappoint as many people as possilble.

  • What happened to my Google home page with weather, etc in Firefox 4?

    I set up a Google homepage with weather, news link, translator, etc and Firefox 4 install has wiped it out. I just get standard Google as my home page. What happened? Do I have to go back and request everything again?

    Same issue here. Seems that all cache and cookies were wiped out with the update. Being a software engineer myself, I have to say, it's generally considered '''''very''''' poor practice for software updates to wipe out user data. It's very surprising that this would happen with Mozilla.
    Unfortunately, I'm trying to get everything back to how it was for an elderly family member, and she has no clue how she got it set up to begin with. I'm pretty sure that she didn't have an iGoogle account?

  • What happens to users' data if their account is deleted?

    I manage a number of macs in our lab. People come and go, and now it's time to delete some old accounts. If I just delete an account in the "accounts" section of system preferences, do their home directories and files therein get automatically deleted or do I need to go in and do it by hand (or else have a bunch of owner-less files taking up my disk space)? What's the best way to delete an account and everything owned by that user?
    Mike

    You get the choice. When you delete an account through System Preferences it will ask you if you want to delete their homespace immediately. If you say yes it trashes the homespace, otherwise you get a disk image of the homespace in the /Users/Deleted Users folder. HTH.

  • What happened to user/group preferences in lion server?

    I am installing Lion server and using am using the new server admin tools.  The user/groups function is very different than Leopard/Snow Leopard.  Many of the parameters are missing.  We use the group preferences to restrict access to printers.  That function seems to be missing.

    jimshaughn
    The print service has been eliminated from Lion so the old familiar way is gone.
    However if you set up the Profile Manager service and then go to the management website of your server linked in the Server application, I believe you will be able to limit printers to specific users and groups.  I have not implemented it yet, but I do remember seeing those options in there when I began looking at it.  The difficulty with the Profile Manager is that it appears to require that the clients be 10.7.  The new abilities in Profile Manager are actually pretty nice and seem easier to configure than WGM / Server Admin in my cursory review of the settings and options.
    I am moving servers first so for me this is a bit of a challenge for me too since our clients are still 10.6.  I had to bring computers and groups into the OD via WGM which will still cover the old machines.  Control is split until all clients are up to date which is a little frustrating.
    Have you set up the printers on the server itself and then edited the users/groups from WGM on the server itself which may allow you to still add the printers attached directly?  It appears that you can still do that.
    Hope this helps.
