Hi All   We had been using SharePlus for Office 365 but now that I'm deploying it through the VPP they want $27 per user per year. Would be happy to pay it as a once off but not as a subscription.    So dose anyone know a good app for working with Office 365 SharePoint that is free or has a once off purchase. It needs to allow you to use the open in function and copy to function. As we use send to feature to take files into Docs To Go to edit and the Copy to (AppName) feature to upload them back into the portal.   I'm stuck with old iPad 2 units and iOS 9.3.5 so would need to be compatible with that.    Thanks  ...

We only need 7 copies of the app which works out to $188 but since we had been doing it on the single license I needed something to justify to the owner of the business why he now needs to spend that money for something that has been working.   So i did a check on the terms of use and found the following under the App Store Content section. Individuals acting on behalf of a commercial enterprise, governmental organization or educational institution (an “Enterprise”) may download and sync Apps for use by either (i) a single individual on one or more devices owned or controlled by an Enterprise; or (ii) multiple individuals on a single shared device owned or controlled by an Enterprise. For the sake of clarity, each device used serially or collectively by multiple users requires a separate license.   So the way i read that is if its for business use each device has to have its own licence for the app regardless of weather it's used by a single user and multiple users. This gives me the justification that i need to get the purchase order approved to buy the licenses through the VPP.   As for the user tracking for the manager I'm currently playing with the apple app Find My Friends to see if i can make use of that with each user issued there own apple ID so we don't have to hand out the master one. If anyone has a better app i'm open to hearing about it. ... View more

Hi   @Ryan-Zimmerle  Thanks for your reply and i totally agree with you that in the long run spending the money now will save money in time and effort to maintain it, and switching to VPP would make the app problem disappear. However I work for a medium size family business and it's almost impossible to justify that kind of spend.   Also the other side of this is that the manager wants to be able to use Find my iPad to spot check that the staff are where they said they are.  So unless there is a way that i can give the manger an app for his iPad that is limited to just the Systems Manger Map and only the iPad devices then we still need the apple ID set in the iCloud settings. Unless you or someone has another option that is $0 cost.   @jffortier The last time i checked the terms of use it still read that you could but it has been some time since a last checked them so it may have been changed since then. So thanks for your reply as if it has changed to how your describing it then I will have a valid business case to get the purchase approved through the VPP.     ... View more

Can you Push Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes settings to iOS devices

Hi is there any way with system manager to push the AppleID username and password to an iOS device.   We have a small fleet of less then 10 iPads so we use public app store apps instead of VPP app as the apple terms of use allows you to have the app on up to 9 devices and only pay for it once instead of 9 times the price via the VPP. So we need to have the apple ID set in the iTunes setting of the iPad to the account that purchased the apps.    This becomes a problem when we have to change the password on the account as all the devices start prompting for the new password and we don't want to hand out the password to the end users. I looked into using family sharing to get around the but your limited to 5 users in the family group and we have more then that so that not an option.   So being able to find a way to push the apple id details to the device would be perfect because if we change the password we could just update the config and push it out again. ...
