iPads are Back Up and Running!






The JAMF Server for configuring iPads has been updated and is now working.  We will be working on updates for Lexia Core 5, Istation, and any other app requests.  If iPads need to be reset, you may do so now.  Be sure your iPads are connected to "JCS-Wireless" in order to communicate with the JAMF Server properly.

Reporting Chromebooks & iPads to Technology Services



Whether you are receiving new Chromebooks and/or iPads, sending them off for repair, reporting them as lost/stolen, or discarding them, Technology Services must get information regarding each device so we can take the appropriate action in our system.  With that in mind, a new form has been created and should be used from here on out.  This form will replace the old form and should be used instead of emailing the information. 


It is very important to maintain accurate records in Destiny, especially regarding serial numbers.  Sometimes when scanning the box the device came in, a letter may be added to the beginning or end of the number making it very difficult to determine the actual number.  Always double check the serial number on the device when entering information in Destiny. 

Please be aware that this process in no way updates their record(s) in Destiny.  You will still be responsible to complete necessary disposition forms as applicable (Title I, CTE, etc.) and add/update the record(s) in Destiny.  Also, when you are certain you have a lost/stolen device, you will report it on this form as well as contact Technology Services so we can begin immediate tracking of the device(s).

Feel free to contact Technology Services if you have any questions regarding this form.

VOIP, iPads, & Swap....oh my!



When SchoolDude tickets are being entered for VOIP issues, be sure to include the extension of the affected phone.  This will help expedite your ticket.  Please share this information as needed.  Thank you!






From the Desk of April Richardson....
Please do not reset any iPads at this time.  We are having issues with our service and working to get it resolved.  We will let you know when all is well again.  
                                                                                                                       Thank you!






Do you need technology?  Do you no longer need technology but it is still in good working condition?  Share it on our JCPS Swap Meet Sheet!

Mclass ipads - ios 9.0


Today Apple released an update to iOS 9.  MClass has released this statement regarding the update:

IMPORTANT! iOS 9 Update On Wednesday, September 16, Apple is releasing its new operating system, iOS 9. mCLASS® assessments are compatible and ready for use with iOS 9, with the exception of mCLASS Beacon and mCLASS:TPRI.

All mCLASS products will continue to work on iOS 8, as well.

Warning: Users upgrading their Apple devices to iOS 9 must sync the mCLASS app before upgrading to avoid losing data stored on the device. 

The Team at Amplify

I would have your teachers carefully look at the amount of space they have available on their device prior to updating.  This update takes 1.3 GB and the last update was 4.6 GB so if they are still at iOS7 they will need 5.9 GB free to upgrade to the most current iOS and this is almost 1/2 of the storage on the devices.
