The Vista parental controls prohibit itunes

I tried adding itunes to the firewall, the eligible programs, Web sites eligible etc etc.  Simply the Vista parental controls seem to have to be turned off (allowing children access to _) if they want to connect to the itunes store using itunes.  I saw messages regarding this gong in 2006.  Surely, there is a problem now?  Perhaps a free upgrade to Win7?  Seriously, I need to get this to work once and for all.  Help!

  • Why the online parental control are homophobic?

    I am looking for help on the internet drawing fanart but I want to draw a gay couple and the research that I do with the word gay in them are marked an inappropriate and so now I have to use pictures of straight couples. So, my point is first of all why you all homophobes? And also is it possible that I can fix this without having my parents unlock each page for me?

    If there is a problem, it is likely with the search engine settings, not Safari itself. If your parents put in place restrictions of search terms, it is much more likely to have been for any material "sexually" than just "gay" related material I don't think any search engine or restrictions allow this kind of censorshi, although I have not tested all the search engines.

  • Parental control unavailable since the change of e-mail account in Outlook

    I can no longer access or control security settings for the family since the evolution of my hotmail account outlook account, as recommended by Microsoft.  An omnipresent annoying popup asking me to write in my pw, but the user ID is always displayed as my old account hotomail and I am unable to change that.  So I tried, but a message says that it is incorrect, which, of course, it is.   Now I wonder if I will be unable to install new software if my account name is not recognized?

  • Parental controls does not block the proxy or VPN servers for access to *.

    Our teenage son found a way around Parental controls by using proxy servers or a personal VPN. I tried to add more sites to the list of blocked sites, but there seems to be hundreds of them.

    Hi marion_librarian

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Answers Forums!

    This is the problem of design, the session remains active in the background, however, so the next time they connect, they can pick up where they left off without losing any of their work.

    In case if you complete the program, there is no these settings in the parental control to close the program, you can disconnect the program using the Task Manager.

  • Cancel the Parental control, because I'm the Parent: but not Administrator of my computer

    I myself blocked on my computer. I didn't know that Apple was the administrator of the computer, and I was a user. I turned on the 'enable parental control' to limit the spending of my adolescence, while using my apple ID. I didn't know I was putting controls on myself. I tried everything-

    (1) connected on Mac of my son tried to remote access, file sharing, etc. He is a Director on his computer, and we've even created a new user on his computer. Nothing has worked.

    (2) tried questions help and support, impossible to find a way around it.

    (3) I've changed my password, now I can't even shut down the computer.

    I can't believe that this happened to someone, somewhere, and it's so easy to do.

    Help, please! I tried everything-

    Please take these steps to restore the privileges on your account. This somewhat tedious procedure is only necessary if you have verified that no work administrator account exists on the system.

    If you do not already have a current backup of all your data, you must back up before taking any of the steps below. Ask if you need advice. You won't need the backup unless something goes wrong, which is always possible.

    Step 1

    Start in recovery mode. The OS X Utilities appears.

    Step 2

    This step only if you use FileVault 2. Start utility disk, then select the icon for the volume FileVault startup ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name.) It will be nested under another icon of the disc. Select open in the file menu and enter your login password when you are prompted. Then quit disk utility must be returned to the main screen.

    Step 3

    Select

    Utilities ▹ Terminal

    in the menu bar. In the window that opens, type this:

    resetp

    Press the tab key. The partial order you entered will automatically end this:

    resetpassword

    Press return. Opens a window to reset the password. Select your boot if not already done volume. Pull down the menu option

    Select the user account

    and select

    Administrator (root)

    Follow the prompts to set a password. It is safer to choose a password that includes only the characters a - z, A - Z and 0-9. I suggest that you write the password. If you don't write it down and forget about it, you will start again at step 1.

    Select

     ▹ Reboot...

    in the menu bar.

    Step 4

    This step, as step 2, applies only if you use FileVault. Sign up as usual, then select

     ▹ Disconnect...

    from the menu bar or press shift-command-Q key combination. Do not restart. You go back to the login screen.

    Step 5

    On the login screen, click on the other... Enter 'root' (without the quotes) in the name field and the password set in step 3 in the password field. You should now be logged in as root. It is a potentially dangerous situation. Do nothing by being logged in as root except as indicated below. You'll be fine as long as you don't dismiss the plan.

    Open the preferences users and groups window. Select your usual administrator account from the list of users and check the box marked

    Allow the user to administer this computer

    You will be prompted to restart. Do this and log in as yourself, not as root. Your administrator status should now be restored.

    Step 6 (optional, but recommended)

    Follow the instructions in this article to support under the title "disable the root user. You must authenticate in directory utility as a 'root' with the password set in step 3. As another administrator authentication will not work.

  • A new version of the parental control is available. We recommend that you update the PC of each Member of the family.

    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!

  • Issues related to the parental control EA6900

    I have my setup of parental control to block access from 22:00 to 09:00 however, it does not automatically access when the time changes to time 'unlocked '. Curiously, it still shows the message 'parental control block. I have to disable the parental control to allow access to devices after 9:00 and then it must reactivate at 22:00 to block access again.

    I've also updated the latest firmware (1.1.42.161129). It does not seem to be 2 versions (V1.0 or V1.1), however, these two seem to be the same file. I used the correct version for my router (V1.0).

    I want to stay with what you have for now and look to see if it works on some devices. Check that the clock on the router is configured correctly. See also if certain sites are blocked and others not. I think there's a bug where some sites using https:// is not to be blocked but http:// did. It worked correctly before the upgrade? Remember you of what was the old version? The cancellation is made by the interface of the router and there is a button to restore but still, if restore you an unwanted version which isn't good either. Better do small things first.

  • "parental controls does not allow this game begins" without any restrictions applied

    I get the window ' parental control does not this game start "when I try to run a game and all settings are disabled.

    Hello helicopter-Guy,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.

    I would like to ask you a few questions in order to get a better understanding of this issue.

    ·         What is the operating system installed on your computer?

    ·         Did you the latest changes on the computer?

    ·         Logged in as the administrator of the computer?

    ·         What game you try play?

    You get this error usually when parental control is set by the administrator for your user account.

    I suggest that you try to run the game as administrator and check, if you are able to play the game.

    Right-click on the game, click Run as administrator.

    If the problem persists, then I suggest that you install the game in Vista compatibility mode and check if you are able to play the game.

    See the link to run programs in compatibility mode: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

  • Disable parental control

    Parental control is not activated and deactivated, but it continues to insist that he is there and makes life miserable for all accounts. It used to work fine. An upgrade did something nasty?

    Go to start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services and find the Parental control or control Parental of Windows (I have Vista professional so that the service is not on my system to get the exact names - there may be more than one).  Click on the menu to the low bar for each and click on disable and then click OK and restart.  Without the Service, Parental controls does not work and I hope it will solve the problem.

    Try disabling UAC http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/disable-user-account-control-uac-the-easy-way-on-windows-vista/ - this also turns off the Parental control.  Restart and then turn the UAC (you don't want to run your computer with UAC for a very long time) and see if the Parental control is still a problem.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Internet does not work after you set up parental controls.

    I just create a new account and set up parental controls for it. Before I did the internet worked, but after you have configured parental controls, internet would not just work for my desktop which has a direct line.  I have a router and even after, the wifi signal and internet would always work however my line connection direct wouldn t.  I continued doing to solve the problem and start system restore, but every time I tried to set up the account with the internet parental control just doesn't work.
