In Windows Server 2019, user x1 has permissions assigned to OU1. There are 10 computers and 10 users in OU1. However, user x1 does not have Windows Server 2019 administrator permissions. I would like to allow user x1 to create and edit Group Policy Objects (GPOs) in OU1 from a Windows 10 machine. How to do it?

I would appreciate any help in resolving this issue.

I have an issue where values in a spreadsheet revert to previous values AFTER the file has been reopened, and has been worked in for some time.    For example: Supplies costs are calculated in one File 1, and is referred to in File 2.  If we update File 1, the value in File 2 updates and we save.  Upon re-opening File 2, the value reflects the new, correct value, but if you perform certain actions (copy a tab, re-save the file), the value reverts to the previous amount.  It’s odd because I would more understand if it showed the old value upon opening, and then updated as it recalculated, but this is the opposite.  It shows the correct value upon opening, and then reverts to an old value that doesn’t even exist in the linked file. 

Any thoughts on what causes this, and how to fix?

I got information about the number of licenses available (10 licenses) when I signed up for the plan, but the number of licenses available (just one license).

What’s the correct number of it? Is it possible to use Office 365 and Teams for the staff without buy licenses, even using them online?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I am having problems logging into Microsoft 365 apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) when I have my iPad in Entra Shared Device mode. When I open one of these apps I receive a prompt to sign-in, and when I start to enter my credentials it crashes. MS Authenticator shows the device is set as a multi-user device. Other applications such as Teams, Outlook, and OneDrive work great as once I sign-in to one I’m auto signed-in to the others. It’s just these three apps that are not getting the SSO extension…

This is what the crash report shows: 

uncaught ObjC exception, reason: -[MALAuthenticatorImpl readAllAccounts:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x3013a3830

Do the above 365 apps work for anyone else in Entra Shared Device mode? Maybe I misconfigured something? Thank you for any help with this.

I know similar things have been asked but I can’t find any available solutions that I could successfully tweak to work. Whenever I think I get close the formatting just makes the dates disappear 🤦‍:female_sign:

I have a column for “GL Expire” dates. I need to make it so that dates before today (aka Expired) turn “Red” aka “sp-css-backgroundColor-BgCoral sp-css-borderColor-CoralFont sp-css-color-CoralFont”

And dates between today and five days from today turn “Yellow” aka “sp-css-backgroundColor-BgGold sp-css-borderColor-GoldFont sp-css-color-GoldFont”.

The current code in there is making the expired turn red, the ones that are today turn cyan, and any others have no color.

How can I update this to do what I need?
