Siri is disabled by the Parental control on macOS Sierra admin account
I just installed macOS Sierra today on my 13 "Mac Book Pro (early 2011). I have only one user account that is an administrator account. Siri is not enabled on my machine. When I go to the Siri system preferences screen, it says that "Siri is disabled by Parental control. Hmmm, when I check the Parental control screen, it says "you logged in using an administrator account." You can only apply parental controls to accounts that are not administrator accounts. »
What happens here?
Same problem here. Updated for Sierra of El Capitan on MacBookPro 15 "(mid - 2014).
Even if I toggle the checkbox on the Parental control > others > disable Siri & dictation I can't activate Siri, the checkox is always gray and the alert says "Siri is disabled by Parental control.
Siri is enabled if I login as a burst, but I need it on my Admin account of course. Very annoying.

When I connect to the Windows Live Family Safety website, it shows the opinion (in the title above) recommended that I upgrade to a newer version. Next to this notice there is a link that says... 'install and set up parental controls'. When I click on it to try to upgrade to a new version, need me a Windows Essentials page where it says nothing about an update.
An attempt to update, I clicked on the symbol "Refresh" in the upper right corner of the programs parental control on each of the monitored computers, and all say they are refreshed and updated. What is going on? Why he continues to say that they all need new versions?
PS. I am running Windows XP and control parental version 14.0.8118.0427.
Hi Placebo12,
We are happy to assist you with your concern. I understand that you wonder why the message shows up on the Family Safety website.
The notice comes when it detects an older version of the parental controls installed on your computer. The latest version should be 15.4.3555.0308 for the 2011 version and 16.4.3505.0912 for the 2012 version. Since you're using the 14.0.8118.0427 build that is the 2009 version of the parental control, the site detects it as obsolete. Please note that the only Essentials 2009 version can be installed on Windows XP.
If in the cases, it affects services and parental control functions, please let us know if we can help you.
Thank you!

Why should I Windows 8 for the 30 minute increments in the parental control?
As a developer of software using languages and platforms of Microsoft, I understand how planning works in an application. Why should I upgrade to Windows 8 to get the opportunity to restrict access timed to a PC safe family 30 minutes increments? This is no logic, except if it is half cooked to inform users to upgrade. This is a feature I've wanted since we began using the parental control and I can only assume the developers actually do not use the product, they have created because it really shouldn't been missed for this long. It should also be a simple change in the code to check every 30 minutes instead of 60. Maybe the team of parental controls overlap or had their budget reduced to the point that they cannot make such a simple plus change. I understand, I am in the software. I know it's less than constructive but it's annoying to know different. It's annoying to 'upgrade' to 2012 Essentials see virtually no difference in the features. Your users are not YOU!

We have completed our investigation of the issue you reported. I am pleased to inform you that the problem should be solved, and you should now be able to use your account correctly.
Note: If you are still unable to access your account, maybe it's because the client Windows Live parental controls installed on your computer that retains the restriction on your account settings.

you want to know how to block the ophcrack from running, my child uses this to get my password and in the parental controls in vista. I have 3 accounts going 2 for children and one for the parents/administrator. I found ophcrack in several places on the computer. any help would be greatly appreciated
The only question the idea of Malkeleah, that is when you put a password on BIOS, all you need to do is pop the battery from the motherboard and the password is gone. Faronics has in some programs such as anti-executable and a few other programs that may block the name or ID of a process and prevent it from running (some antiviruses have that option, such as Avast, but usually is a pain in the ass to configure)

Which program to choose "Ask administrator for permission" on the Parental control
I am the administrator and I have parental controls installed on user accounts for my children. When they fall on a blocked Web site, one of the options is "Ask an administrator for permission." When they click on this link, a dialogue, a box pops up saying "this link must be opened with an application" and asked them to browse and choose an application. What application they should choose? Now they must remember Web site, sign out of their account, have log in as administrator, add it to the approved list on parental controls, while I log out and they can log on and access the Web site. It's crazy, especially doing reports of schools who may need to use things like sites of weapons that would be otherwise blocked.

Download e-mail files attached despite the parental control
I have Microsoft parental control set up on my computer of children. I tried to send an attachment through facebook and hotmail. Family safety has blocked them to download the attachment I sent. I looked in the family safety settings and can not find a place to allow downloading of attachments. Any ideas?
Hi Sam,
Thanks for posting the request in Microsoft Community Forums.
1 have you blocked any of these sites in the parental control settings? If this is not the case, what happens when you try to download these attachments?
2. What is the full/exact error message?
You do not allow downloading attachments in particular, but you can allow Web sites. This problem can also occur if the antivirus program blocks downloads.
I suggest you follow these steps to make sure that you have not blocked any of these specific sites or if you do not find in the blocked category, you can add this Web site to the authorized category and check the results.
- On any computer, go to the Family Safety website, and then sign in with the account of a parent's Microsoft.
Under the name of the child you want to set the web content filtering, click on change settings.
Click Web filtering lists.
Type or paste the web address of the site on which you want to allow or block in the http:// text box and click on allow or block.
You can use the drop-down list next to the text http:// box to allow or block a website for only the current child or several children or family members.
If the problem persists, try to update the family safety filter settings to see if that helps.

I have the internet Charter. I am a home user. I tried to set the parental control and received this message: because this computer is connected to a domain, Parental controls are not available. Again, I am a home user. What does that mean?
Hello
1. which user account you are using for Parental control (Please note that you cannot apply parental controls on a user admin account? It can be applied to standard user only accounts)?
2 have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
I ask through the following article to find out how to set up Parental controls:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/parental-controls
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/set-up-parental-controls
After completing the above links persist issue please fallow the mentioned below of the methods.
Method 1: Disable UAC (User Account Control) and check the result
See http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/how-do-I-change-the-behavior-of-user-account-control-by-using-the-sliderNote: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.
Important: Enable UAC after you complete the steps.
Method 2: If the problem persists, try to set the parental control in safe mode and check the result. If you are able to apply settings in safe mode, this means that some program is causing this problem, mainly the security software.
See http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-modeHope the above information is helpful.

(1) I try to use the supplied with Windows 7 parent controls. However, every time I make a change to a parental control, I get an error message that says: "cannot change parental controls. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator. »
Often, once I have clear error message boxes, the changes I made are displayed as changed. Sometimes, however, they are not applied, making these useless parental controls.
(2) I also have problems establishing parental control measures for one of my children. Whenever I try to open the parental controls for a user account, I get the same message, as described above, then the display returns to my administrator account and does not allow me to add parental controls or change them.
(3) when he signed then, a message in the lower right corner indicates that it uses a 'temporary' account and that any changes he made will be saved. What is a temporary account, how it is created, and how it can be changed to a normal account?
Hi Papa_Danno,
Thank you for keeping us posted.
If windows was pre installed on the computer, then you must contact the Original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for the same. If the Windows 7 installation disc was purchased directly from then you can contact Microsoft directly.
I wish that you follow the steps in the article-
Installation and reinstallation of Windows 7
Note: Make sure that you back up all data on the computer before you perform a Clean Installation to avoid any data loss.
Hope this helps!
