This makes bootstrapping really fast and allows us to update software and computer setup more easily.<br /> <br /> # If using a brand new MacBook Pro (in box), no bootstrapping is necessary. Go to Step 3.<br /> # Connect a bootstrap drive to the Mac.<br /> # Boot the Mac to Recovery Mode by powering on the Mac and holding down '''Command+R'''<br /> # Select Utilities on the top menu bar and then --&gt; Terminal<br /> # Type the command /Volumes/macOS/run in the Terminal window.<br /> # Terminal will ask which drive you'd like to bootstrap. Select the drive labeled Macintosh HD. If you don't see a drive labeled Macintosh HD you will need to partition the drive with Disk Utility first.<br /> # After you've selected the drive Terminal will ask you if you want to erase the target volume before install. '''Type y and press return'''.<br /> <br /> ====Step Three: Apply Configuration and Updates====<br /> Once the Mac has been bootstrapped, it will reboot and you will be presented with the macOS initial setup window. Follow the onscreen prompts.<br /> <br /> Important: Make sure you see a screen that says '''&quot;Remote Management&quot; and &quot;Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ can automatically configure your computer&quot;'''. If you don't see this screen the Mac will need to be moved to the correct MDM server. Any dutyperson should be able to move it for you if you provide them with the serial number of the Mac.<br /> <br /> Once you've progressed through the macOS Setup windows, Managed Software Center will automatically begin downloading any applicable updates.<br /> <br /> ====Step Four: Add user, install Printers &amp; update/install other software====<br /> #Login as admin.<br /> #Add user through System Preferences (Users and Groups). Click the + symbol to add user. Check allow user to administer computer. Set password to temporary password. <br /> #Restart computer and log into computer as user.<br /> #Use '''Managed Software Center''' to install the printers.<br /> #Use '''Managed Software Center''' to install software that the user wants installed. Refer to ticket for specialized software requests.<br /> #Click '''Updates''' to make sure all installed software is up to date.<br /> <br /> ====Step Five: Set up CrashPlan====<br /> #Open the CrashPlan app under their user.<br /> #Open System Preferences and choose '''Security and Privacy'''.<br /> #Navigate to the Privacy tab, and choose Full Disk Access from the left side panel. Check the box next to CrashPlan and falconhd.<br /> <br /> ====Step Six: Install iProjection====<br /> iProjection is replacing EasyMP, and is currently not on Managed Software Center.<br /> Please visit [https://epson.com/Support/wa00723 https://epson.com/Support/wa00723] and download the installer for Mac.<br /> #After installation, open iProjection.<br /> #Choose Advanced Connection Mode.<br /> #Check the box to set the selected Connection Mode as default.<br /> #Press OK.<br /> #Connect to the Olin 133 or Olin 124 projector. When prompted to allow Screen Recording in System Settings, select yes. If Privacy Settings do not automatically open, navigate to System Preferences &gt; Security &amp; Privacy &gt; Privacy tab. On the lefthand side panel, click Screen Recording.<br /> #Check the box next to iProjection.<br /> <br /> ====Step Seven: Mac New Employee Letter====<br /> Customize (replace the items in bold italic that are placeholders) and print a [[Media:Mac_NewEmployee_Letter.docx | Mac New Employee Letter]] for each user user.<br /> <br /> ====Troubleshooting====<br /> =====What if Managed Software Center does not start?=====<br /> Please run the following command in Terminal: sudo /usr/local/munki/managedsoftwareupdate -vvv<br /> <br /> [[Category:Cascade]]<br /> [[Category:Imaging]]</div> Kobrien4 /gts/w/index.php?title=Summer_Staff:_Daily_Duties&diff=37589 Summer Staff: Daily Duties 2020-05-13T18:48:41Z <p>Kobrien4: /* Morning meeting */</p> <hr /> <div>==Clocking In/Out==<br /> <br /> We will use TimeClock (timeclock.gac.edu) for you to clock in and out.

It includes most of the features of a desktop computer (i.e. screen, keyboard, mouse or track pad, etc) in one small lightweight unit. It is convenient enough to be used on one's lap, hence the name Laptop.<br /> <br /> ==Choosing a Laptop for College==<br /> Most students will buy laptops for college instead of [[desktops]] because they are smaller and more convenient for mobile use.<br /> ===Choosing Between a Mac or a PC===<br /> At Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ, almost every student has his or her own personal computer. Among the first-year class of 2008-2009 school year, approximately 495 students owned a Windows computer, and 225 students owned a Macintosh computer. However, the choice of purchasing a Windows or a Mac is entirely up to the student. Both Windows and Macintosh are fully supported at Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ, and each has its own advantages.<br /> ====Macintosh====<br /> [[Macintosh| Macintosh computers]] are supported by Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ, and [[GTS]] should be able to handle any problems one might encounter with a Mac. Though a Mac will be more expensive than a Windows, they are more virus protected, and are designed for certain types of professional use, such as graphic art and visual editing. Macintosh computers are equally compatible as Windows are on the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Campus, and do not require any anti-virus software.<br /> =====Variations of Macintosh Laptops=====<br /> *Macbook Pro<br /> *13 in<br /> *15 in<br /> *17 in<br /> *Macbook Air<br /> <br /> ====Windows====<br /> [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] computers are also supported by Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ, and any problems one may encounter with a Windows machine, [[GTS]] should be able to fix. Many students find it convenient to buy a Windows computer because they are affordable, and have the right amount of processing power to handle any project or assignment handed out by the college. Another advantage is that almost every type of computer game is written for a Windows machine.<br /> <br /> Unfortunately, Windows computers are susceptible to viruses. Therefore, students are required to use an antivirus product while using the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ network. The [[Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Wireless Network|Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Network]] only supports [[Windows 10]] which comes equipped with Microsoft Security Essentials.<br /> <br /> =====Variations of Windows laptops (manufacturers)=====<br /> *Dell<br /> *HP<br /> *ASUS<br /> *Lenovo<br /> *Toshiba<br /> <br /> [[Category:Hardware]]</div> Kobrien4 /gts/w/index.php?title=Norelius_Hall&diff=37530 Norelius Hall 2020-05-08T20:29:03Z <p>Kobrien4: </p> <hr /> <div>'''Norelius Hall''' is a [[residence hall]] on the north side of campus.<br /> <br /> Non-technical information about the hall can be found at [http://www.gustavus.edu/reslife Residential Life's] [/reslife/residences/norelius/ Norelius Page].<br /> <br /> ==Computer lab==<br /> Norelius has one [[computer lab]] which is located on the main floor.<br /> <br /> ===Equipment===<br /> This lab contains two [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]]-based computers, two[[Macintosh]]-based computer, and one [[HP Laserjet m602dn]] printer.

Use the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector if you do not have access to a wireless network connection, or are unable to connect your Nintendo DS to the internet with your current connection. With the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector, up to five Nintendo DS systems can be connected to the internet at the same time. Of course, this only applies to game cartridges that are Wi-Fi compatible. <br /> <br /> Remember, to play with friends in the same room as you, the Nintendo DS can always connect to the other DS systems for wireless play without the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Troubleshooting==<br /> ===How do I uninstall the USB Connector?===<br /> Please follow these steps on your computer to remove the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector software:<br /> <br /> 1.

During the course of running the DEVREMOV program, you will see three windows pop up successively.<br /> * The first will have a series of question marks. Click &quot;Yes.&quot;<br /> * The second will have a picture of wires and lights moving on it while the DEVREMOV utility uninstalls the internet connection sharing for the Nintendo Wi-FI USB Connector. This will disappear on its own.<br /> * The third will also have several question marks on it. Just click &quot;Ok.&quot;<br /> * At this point, remove the USB connector from your computer.<br /> 3. Check the &quot;Programs&quot; list and, if the &quot;Uninstall&quot; option for the connector is there, run this process.<br /> * Click the Start button , and select &quot;Programs.&quot;<br /> * If the Nintendo USB Wi-Fi Connector is listed, click on the &quot;Uninstall&quot; program to remove it.<br /> 4. Check Add/Remove Software on the computer and, if listed, remove the USB connector.<br /> * Click the Start button, and select Control Panel.<br /> * Open &quot;Add/Remove Programs.&quot;<br /> * If listed, select the Nintendo Wi-Fi connector from the list, and click &quot;Remove.&quot;<br /> * Follow the prompts to uninstall the program.<br /> * Reboot your computer to complete the uninstallation.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Nintendo]]</div> Kobrien4
