Edit your Permissions

If you are having problems editing your missionary list or enabling and disabling your printing or activating your Spanish Videos the following instructions will probably fix it.

If you are using Windows 2000 Professional:

  1. Navigate to the "agfm" folder at c:\inetpub\wwwroot\agfm
  2. Right-click on "agfm" and select "Properties"
  3. Click on the "Security" tab
  4. In the top box, select "Users ([machine name]\Users)"
  5. In the bottom box, check in the "Allow" column, the box in the "Write" row.
  6. If you have an "Everyone" item in the top box, select it.
  7. Then in the bottom box, check in the "Allow" column, the box in the "Full Control" row.

If you are using Windows XP Professional:*

  1. Double-click "My Computer"
  2. In the "Tools" menu, select "Folder Options..."
  3. Click on the "View" tab
  4. At the very bottom of the list, uncheck "Use simple file sharing (Recommended)"
  5. Click "OK"
  6. Navigate to the "agfm" folder at c:\inetpub\wwwroot\agfm
  7. Right-click on "agfm" and select "Properties"
  8. Click on the "Security" tab
  9. In the top box, select "Users ([machine name]\Users)"
  10. In the bottom box, check in the "Allow" column, the box in the "Write"row.
  11. If you have an "Everyone" item in the top box, select it.
  12. Then in the bottom box, check in the "Allow" column, the box in the "Full Control" row.

If you are still having problems:

  1. Make sure you are using Version 6 of Internet Explorer.
  2. Open Internet Explorer 6.
  3. In the "Tools" menu select "Internet Options..."
  4. You will see the "General" tab when you open "Internet Options...".
  5. In the second box down, "Temporary Internet files" click the "Settings..." button.
  6. Under "Check for newer versions of stored pages, select "Automatically."
  7. Click the "OK" button, for the "Settings..." dialog.
  8. Click the "OK" button for the "Internet Options..." dialog.
  9. Try editing your missionary pages again.

Other problems:

  1. If this is your first installation of the Touchscreen, and you installed IIS after you installed the Touchscreen, you may have to uninstall the Touchscreen and reinstall it to enable write privileges even though you have correctly enabled them in the security settings for the AGFM folder.
  2. Try restarting your computer.

*This assumes that you are using the default file sharing settings for your Computer. If you have already disabled "Simple File Sharing" start at number 6.
