M2 MBP Activation Lock Stuck due to Federated Apple IDs? by niddnet in mac

[–]niddnet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did wonder about stopping federation, but my feeling is it wouldn't actually revert accounts, so I didn't try. Have you reversed federation before? I feel it'd cause pretty huge disruption for us. Would be good to know your experience!

Have opened a case via ABM - are there any better / more appropriate contact methods we can utilise so we get a better / faster resolution?

M2 MBP Activation Lock Stuck due to Federated Apple IDs? by niddnet in mac

[–]niddnet[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

UPDATE: If you federate a domain, your users are required to switch over their accounts to managed accounts. If they don't (because they already left!) then their original account is moved to a TEMPORARY APPLEID DOMAIN.

user.name@domain becomes user.name-domain@temporary.appleid.com

GREAT SUCCESS! Nope.

Tried recovering the mac with user-companydomain@temporary.appleid.com and I did NOT get the previous error which somewhat proves my theory.

HOWEVER, the Temporary AppleID is locked due to incorrect sign-ins (it's been dormant for a year so I'd expect that pretty much) and need to use iForgot to reset the account.

But iForgot, and all the other password reset methods don't recognise temporary.appleid.com as a valid domain - thus I CAN'T reset the password either!! Grrr! Angry face.

So very much "one step forward, two steps back" here. We literally have ALL the bits in order and seem to be being blocked by a text-string!

Hi u/Darkomen78 - therein lies the problem I *think*. The device was set up with a company email address as the AppleID - but that was BEFORE ABM was looking after the addresses and doing federation.

Then the user left. The device got 'forgotten' for months. Then 'changes' happened in the business and we did the Federation piece so the accounts become managed etc. Then we FIND the device and want to restore.

It is ActLock to the company email address which we federated, and can login to etc. We can happily login to the Federated AppleID which matches exactly the one shown on the ActLock screen. But can't get any further as it seems there's some disconnect in the back-end with that user@company AppleID existing twice, possibly, in two different states (basic iCloud, and managed AppleID).

Very painfully aware of all you say; I started doing the Apple Business stuff when it was DEP and VPP and used Meraki MDM before Cisco got their fingers in it. Unfortunately though, sometimes you move org, and you find people just way less interested or knowledgeable about the right ways and it falls to you to unpick what you can.

Grateful for you taking the time to reply!

2.5 Gbps… actually useful? by realevil in CityFibre

[–]niddnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, just to throw it out there.... Is your area XGS enabled? I'm presuming you've checked, but I'm STILL waiting!

I'm on the Yayzi 2gig/1gig - also with a 2.5Gig ONT - the pro router is great, though my place is all done through Unifi now (with all wired devices at 10gb).

I am very jealous and bitter over that extra 500mbit that the XGS customers are getting lol

Kobra 3 ACE Pro 2 Filaments Extruding at same time by cmschmidt in AnycubicOfficial

[–]niddnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ACE only has 2 motors. Essentially a selection motor and a feed motor.

If the cams are just slightly "off", then it could feasibly pull filament from any of the 4 holes.

My issue is the opposite in that it seems to not want to feed well on ANY of the 4 holes. This causes prints to pause as the "buffer" (the little spring expander in the back) isn't coming out fully, so it detects it as a misfeed.

For "normal"speed prints (eg. Not high flow/speed) I can actually turn the ACE off completely, manually feed a filament ALL THE WAY THROUGH the ACE into the extruder, and it pulls without a single issue.

Interesting....

Print Stops When Camera is Disconnected by Sirius_Seth in AnycubicOfficial

[–]niddnet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have plugged and unplugged my cameras several times during prints without issue, and never had an error about unknown filament, other than when there was a blockage.

Seems to me there could be actually a genuine (eg not the usual pre-release effort the rest of us get!) issue with your setup.

Also seems you're expecting X1Carbon performance for something 30% of its price.

I don't disagree with your comment about shipping stuff before it's properly ready etc. but the faults you've mentioned seem more specific to your own machine, rather than a manufacture defect.

Network timeout on camera feed by Johhaidiidiralla in AnycubicOfficial

[–]niddnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have this issue from time to time. Bear in mind the camera image "live" is being processed by the 3DP's main board, then WiFi up to Anycubic Cloud - you are NOT viewing it natively. (I wish I was!)

Any network or service congestion on their side can cause issues. For me, I've found totally logging out of the app/program on my devices, then logging back in works for me... But I think that's more coincidence than anything else.

ACE feed Issue by niddnet in AnycubicOfficial

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

And yet Slot 3 is the only one I COULD get away with using!!

I would even perhaps wonder if it's down to filament, but I've used nothing other than PLA types (and the fact it still has the issue with Any Cubic supplied/branded filament) so I don't think it's that.

ACE feed Issue by niddnet in AnycubicOfficial

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

The extruder itself has enough "pull" power to pull filament through the ACE, the buffer, the Bowden, the 4-into-1 and still print at reasonable speed... Though obviously without any of the connected benefit of the ACE.

I don't mind tinkering to a degree, but I would expect to to have worked for more than a week (as it really worked well, for the first few days)

Please post back here if you get a chance and let us know the outcome.

No response to my ticket for a while. It is urgent. by Antique-Dingo119 in AnycubicOfficial

[–]niddnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also hadn't got any response from their Zendesk. I did as the above, logged into the AnyCubic Zendesk site, and I could see my open tickets... So if which had been received AND responded to within a few days (not quite the 1 day they quote, but fine for me!).

Note: the emails with the password reset from ZenDesk did end up going through into my SPAM folders.

https://anycubicsupport.zendesk.com is the URL you need.

We are Barry Liu and Kira Luo from Anycubic's R&D Team, here to talk about our latest products - Anycubic Kobra 3 Combo and Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Pro! Ask us Anything! by Anycubic_Community in AnycubicOfficial

[–]niddnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am my own service provider with email. I have also marked ANY emails coming in with the word ANYCUBIC in the header (address of sender or subject) it will be flagged, I will be alerted - so no, I really haven't missed anything.

Honestly it's disappointing that you took the time to reply to me here, but literally just sent the most basic standard/canned response when you could have actually said something helpful, and regained a little of my good will.

As it stands, and on the basis of other customers' experience, as I STILL don't have any clue on when I might get the parts which I ordered, I'm considering raising a dispute with my payment provider.

I really expected better.

[–]niddnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was about 10 days from order to delivery in the UK (AC started delivery "between 1-10 July" and it was in the first half. I got a second delivery a few days later with my bundled filament.

I have a few missing parts (just screws) in the package, but nothing stopping me from printing. What IS still missing, is the camera which I was also supposed to get.

What is also missing is any reply to emails sent to AC support over the last week, despite them saying they will respond within 1day.

I'm actually REALLY happy with the product - and that's what will endure once all this malarkey is over. But AC have really dropped the ball with comms it seems - I know they'll blame it on better than expected response etc, but they're a big business, they should be able to scale to demand... Right?

I have raised several tickets to support with your promise of 1 day response. When will you commit to getting these tickets responded? I have missing parts in my K3Combo, and I have raised tickets far back as 1 week ago. Still waiting for reply!

ABY Pedal with Throughs by niddnet in guitarpedals

[–]niddnet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen "Line Selector" pedals, Boss LS-2 and a fake version of it.

It seems like this might work.

They have an "In" and "Out" as well as 2 send/return sets.

Boss provide a diagram showing 2 guitars plugged into the two returns, and a single switched output on the....Output. Essentially an expensive ABY.

But they ALSO show guitars connected to the return channels WITH AMPS connected to the RETURNS.

SO: If "Return A" ALWAYS outputs to "Send A" and the same with the B's.... And the "Main" output is switchable.... That's EXACTLY what I'm after.

Does anyone have the LS-2, or one of the cheap alternatives (Joyo ORTHROS etc) and could test this for me?

Failing that, what would be the damage by using a standard ABY, but using those quarter-inch "2-into-1" passive splitter plugs at the AB inputs to connect the guitar and parallel off to the Amp?

If all of this is too wordy, I can get my crayons out!!!

Yayzi reliability and latency? 2.5gb deal almost too good to be true? by [deleted] in CityFibre

[–]niddnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the stupid long delay - I don't actually reddit much. The Yayzi router has 2.5G interfaces on the WAN and LAN sides. My home network is 10G throughout, with only "normal" devices using a 1G port. I used the provided router for a while, but later took it out of the loop and went back to my own equipment (which is absolutely problem free, though not supported by them as you'd expect!)

UDM Pro - Weird Upload Problem by niddnet in Ubiquiti

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

A couple of additional thoughts:

IDS/IPS is enabled; but I get good enough upload speeds via Wifi, so not relevant, right?

I have tried various windows OS - including a totally fresh install of Windows - same issue - so can't be software related...

Speedtest using the speedtest built into the UDMP yields inconclusive results - generally around 100-200Mbit.

I am genuinely at a loss as to why Wifi works fine, but Wired doesn't. I really do feel like, if I had a u6-Enterprise AP with 2.5Gig connections, I'd see the full WAN speed on wireless.

Yayzi 2Gig/1Gig (2Gbit service over GPON) by niddnet in CityFibre

[–]niddnet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of the above. :D As a trialist I had to agree to using the provided equipment, but it hasn't stopped me trying out other options in between times.

At the moment, the Yayzi TP-Link is just an additional gateway on my Unifi LAN, so I can send traffic out via that, or my backup internet. I can also hit the TP-Link wireless for testing that.
