Office 365 - how to disable birthday calendar for user - outlook

I would like to disable a birthday calendar for one of our users. I know, how to do it for myself (the user that is currently logged in), but how can I do it for another user? I am, obiously, an administrator of the environment. I tried to do it by delegating an access to her mailbox, but in the options, I access the ones that are regarding my account, not users. Do you have any advice, if this can be done "ninja style" (without bothering user at all)?

I am looking for the same thing but have been told it does not "yet" exist.
Here is the uservoice to vote for this to happen:

My recommended work-around until that is done...
Ask the user:
On this page:
https://outlook.office365.com/mail/options/calendar/view/birthdayCalendar
Please untick "Turn on the birthday calendar" and then choose "save"
(URL will need to be adjusted if you use on-prem email)
I agree that user-intervention is not ideal, but in this case it will be self-explanatory without the user needing to know which menu this option is hidden behind - they will just get taken straight to the right spot.
Enable SSO on their computer so they wont get asked for credentials when opening OWA.

Should my customer register Google reCaptcha, or should I do it for my customer?

An Customer ask me to implement it at his Webpage, because he don't have the technical Skills to do so.
I wonder, what's the right way to do this.
On other Google-Services (like Google Search Console) the User can sign into his account and grant me permissions as Guest (he invite me as guest to his account and gave me permissions).
This is a clean way to do, because If I stop working for this customer, he can easily remove the permissions of my login and all is fine.
But how does it work at Google ReCaptcha?
Looking forward to hear, how you solve this.
it better to use the user's credentials for this purpose, just take client's primary or secondary email (or create a email for the project) and make it base for everything that's needed for your project like recatcha, search-console etc. you can use it as long as you are working, and client can simply change n give the credentials to next developer and he can continue.
i am web developer and i face this situation many times, this is best solution in my opinion.

How to become customizing admin on trial version

I need to do some test development and created a Dynamics 365 for Sales trial account. I want to customize some fields, add some JavaScript and register Plugins.
I used a temp email address for that, because I do not want spam and the trial account can pass away in a few weeks.
When I click on Sales -> Settings, I only see three buttons, but not the ones for Customizations and Administrations.
Within the role manager, I cannot add the roles because of insufficient privileges.
I see that there is a possibility to become admin if I click on the top left and then admin, but then I have to do prove that I am the owner of the email address' domain name - and I cannot do the steps that are described here.
I am pretty sure, that it haven't been like this before. Is there any other possibility to become a customizer on the Dynamics 365 trial instance?
Additional information: Solved
I did a wrong turn. At the very beginning, I clicked, that I want to be a developer, but I had to click on another link like that. These links can be easily overseen.
Note to anyone out there: Go to trials.dynamic.com, chose your system and then watch out for a phrase/link like: "Are you signing up on behalf of a customer or using this trial for development purposes? Sign up here.".
However, even if you did everything the right way, you might get an instance that still does not work for development/customzing purposes. So you might have to do anything again.
You should have done the following step, if you want to customize the system. Now your system is already customized by MS & Sales ready for you.
On The following page, be sure to check None of these. Don't customize my trial, then click Complete Setup.

Is there a way to change a Google Account name/email?

I have ran into a problematic situation, which I really hope I can get help with.
I'm working on Jive Software solutions and we have a product that integrates Google Drive and Gmail.
This integration product was once part of a startup that was acquired by Jive and as such, the Google api project we are using for the integration belongs to a Google Account of a specific person which no longer works in Jive (we do have the credentials for the account though).
The problem is, that we want this account to be ours, i.e, a Jive software one.
So, one option I have, is to create a new account and replace the api account I'm using in the code to use the new one. This is bad, as it will break all the current authenticated clients, and will force them to take the oauth process all over again.
The other option I see, is to convert the existing Google account we are using to a jivesoftware one, so it will not be associated to any specific person but it will still be the same account.
Specifically I'm interesting in changing the Name and Email of this account.
Any suggestions of how we can achieve that?
A third option could be moving the api project to owned by another google account, but I couldn't find such an option in the UI, any clue?
There is no way to change a gmail address. You can forward all email to a new address with the name and email address you would like though.
This way you access all the email from an account that is a Jive software one but it is being forwarded from the old one still. However no one directly accesses the old one.
Check out https://support.google.com/mail/answer/10957?hl=en for more info.
According to the documentation, if you use Gmail with your Google Account, it's not currently possible to change your Gmail username after you've registered. with your username being the full email address you used to create your account. You can, however, change your nick name by going to https://myaccount.google.com and clicking Personal Info.

Trying to upgrade to v3. Unable to find 'admin' username for logging into mysagepay

I am the web developer for a company who need to upgrade to v3 of mysagepay to continue trading.
However, the only username that I have been given, does not appear to give me admin rights in the control panel. I need to add the IP address of our shopping cart provider to allow it to continue to work after the end of the july.
My guess is that there is another username , which is the full admin rights one..
The one I have is payments, which allows you to view orders etc, but not access most of the settings.
Is there a standard username for the admin account on a given vendor name? I've tried 'retrieve username' using various emails of the company, but they only return the payments username, which isn't apparently an admin user.
I've filled out a couple of forms for online support but as yet have had no useful responses, and time is running out.
Can any one advise as to whether there is a standard username that gives full access rights (admin?) or whether there is a way of telling what the admin user is.
Many Thanks - pulling my hair out here.
Gavin
Call Sage Pay. They can add the IP for you, and/or probably sort out an admin user account. You'll probably need your Merchant number in order to prove you have something to do with that vendor account - you can get this from the authorisation details screen when viewing one of the payments that you have. Number is 0845 111 4455 - I recommend calling out of core business hours as they are pretty busy then (but phones are manned 24/7)

How to improve email verification

I have a question about email verification and user registration. The other day I created accounts for both Twitter and Facebook and I realized in either of them I was asked to fill a CAPTCHA. And even before validating my email account I could already use my account and add friends and all that. Supposedly I had limited options, but didn't even realized it.
My question is, as I'm building a website with user registration myself and I'm planning on use this method, how to deal with spam, "junk accounts" and people that don't validate their email accounts?
And more realistically, I was thinking either asking for a CAPTCHA and an email (and let users verify their accounts later on) or asking for an email and waiting for it to be verified (with a link or a temporal password) right away. In this case, which is the best option?
Thanks!!
It's debate question which is good or bad.
I personally feel Use email verification by sending link on email account and verify that link on click. This will let you trusted user.
By the way captcha isn't bad. It will prevent automated account creation strongly.
