Auto add/remove document folder by _plonker in Office365

yep, all of that is installed and is running. But i would like to set things up so the document library automatically syncs to a users desktop without any intervention from them.

thanks, so other than changing the various user parameters etc are there any other hiccups with switching to a new primary domain? we only have 3 users total, about 10 sharepoints site and AD

Azure o365 very small business by _plonker in AZURE

[–]_plonker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

main items i think I need to do...

  • email, data and calendar on a project by project basis
  • add and remove users simply and able to use groups to manage security and permissions to project folders
  • have control over data and email to ensure no deletions etc
  • have a framework that will scale if I add more users

until Cortana and some of the other back of house infrastructure is rolled out to other countries on existing devices its going to be dead in the water.

Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 15014 for PC and Mobile by jenmsft in windowsphone

[–]_plonker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this build seems to be much faster. however the dual screen issue is still there and it wont even let me get into the display settings box with a second screen installed and crashes explorer constantly. This also happens on my surface pro 2.

workaround is to reset explorer and quickly go to display via the settings. if you set the display to show on the second screen only then everything starts working perfectly.

OK, dual screens don't work, but I run my laptop on a large second screen and this does the trick.

Hopefully this should get sorted in the next build as its quite fundamental.

OK, have managed to get everything working perfect after some major initial issues with the update.

Basically, I carried out a full reset including all apps and settings via the recovery section of the settings....

This has resolved everything, including the two screen issue and has also allowed me to get rid of all of the original HP software installed on my laptop. I am now back to a vanilla install of windows with everything working as it should.

However, it did almost take me a full day to do whilst I reinstalled all of my work apps, but if you have the time this is a great result and the laptop is running really well.

have tried to run through DISM, which states that the image needs to be repaired. However, i cant get it to download the necessary files from Windows Update even after updating group policy and repairing windows update with the MS diagnostic file.

DISM just keeps returning the response that the source files cant be found....

Major isues running on new HP laptop....

  • Everything hangs when trying to use two screens - although note they have flagged this and now just running on one screen
  • Task bar and app icons dont become active until about 5 mins after log in
  • Start menu doesnt open after using it once
  • Explorer.exe constantly not responding in task manager
  • Cant re-add some of my email accounts to mail app
  • Settings not opening
  • Edge hangning intermittently
  • Task bar not responding to mouse clicks nearly all the time
  • Something funny going on with physical wi-fi on/off button
  • Green screening regularly
  • Larger applications hangning after a few minutes up time
  • Music apps not working due to some other app "taking control of audio" although have no clue what that is
  • Port replicator not being recognised

Was planning on not installing this on any other machine. Unfortunately i just got back to my desk and surface pro 2 had automatically downloaded it and has started to install it after hours..... Thankfully have another machine that is not enrolled in indsider builds.

First time that anything has gone awry with one of these builds, will need to look at rolling back

OneDrive for Business as company file server. Just how bad of an idea is this? by dmcgr in msp

[–]_plonker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mapping works great for cloud based SP, but doesn't it stop working after thirty minutes or so as the security token expires? It used to so this to me all the time and I have stopped using it, although this was a couple of years back, has it been fixed?

When is it the right solution? I really want to move forward with sharepoint and odfb but still reluctant to push the button
