Adobe Edge Inspect not syncing on ios devices?

Hiya,
Just trialing Edge Inspect at work. It works excellently on my Galaxy SII, but it doesn't work so well on any ios devices we have in the office, including ipads 1,2,3 and iphones 4/4S/5 (running ios5 and 6). I can get the page to sync initially but it then refuses to follow my changes from Chrome forcing me to manually refresh the desktop client or the device... which makes the whole process a little frustrating.
I'm wondering if it is possibly network related, but if so... why does it work so well on an Android device? It doesnt matter what site i look at, so i know its not a matter of page load.
Any advice, further suggestions are welcome.
Cheers
R

Hi Mark,
Thanks for the response! Sorry for the delayed reply. I was waiting to be able to be near the same people again with the various iPhones but I haven't been able to hook up with them at this time. Probably later next week.
See response to your questions below:
To make sure I understand, you are connecting these devices to a server they are auto-discovering, right?
Yes. Although, I had to manually put the IP into the older Kindle Fire and one of the other Android devices. I can't remember if it was the Galaxy Tab or Nexus 7 ( I believe it was the Nexus).
You've got at least 8 other devices that you're not having any problems with?
Yes.
Do your iPhone 4 & 5 devices display any error when you try to connect?
No errors
Are you sure your devices are all on the same network as your computer?
Yes. There are actually multiple networks. We tried switching to another network to no effect. This is after shutting down the app on Master and the slaved devices.
Can you browse to a simple webpage like google.com and have the devices follow along, or do those devices not synch browse to ANY web pages?
We didn't do the google test but we did go to another site. mrtestsite.com as well as azimba.com. Browsed multiple pages on each site.
If it's only a specific web page, what's the URL of that page?
See above
Can you check your computer for any firewall software and make sure it's disabled?
Didn't do that. Will try that again next time. Running it on the MacBook Air (10.7.5). Firewall is set to Limit Connections to Specific Devices and the EdgeInspect.applicaiton is set to Allow all Connections there.
Can you try uninstalling from the iPhones, removing all the app data, and reinstalling?
Did not do that. Will try. These were fresh installs from the app store.
What version of iOS is running on each of those devices?
Not sure. I'll check with them when I see them. Two of them are major tech heads so I'm pretty sure they're running the latest version of iOS for iPhone.
The irony of this is that I was going to be demoing the Inspect tool at an LA tech job fair sponsored by Adobe so it would be nice to resolve this issue.

Bookmarks not syncing on Ios devices

I have iCloud. Syncing seems to work fine between my mac, my ipad and my iphone for addresses and calendar (thank god) but for some reason, my bookmarks do not make it over. If I go into icloud on the ios devices (ipad, iphone) and turn bookmark sync off, they disapear and they reappear when i turn it back on, yet the latest bookmarks or changes to bookmarks do not go onto the ios devices. it seems that only an old set of bookmarks is syncing.
any idea?
thanks for your help.

It is set up as far as i know. check screen shot:

IBooks do not sync between iOS devices

I have used iBooks since '10 and it has worked up until the latest release fairly well. My problem is iBooks no longer syncs the last or furthest page read as it once did. Kindle does this without a problem but the iBooks application does not function.
Both iOS devices are signed in with the same Apple ID.
Example: I download a book on iBookstore to my iPad. I read the book to page twenty, exit to the home screen, then put the iPad to sleep. Later, I open the same book on the iPhone, and the book is still on page one. The page does not change to page twenty. I open iBooks on the iPad, and the page changes to page one (to match the iPhone).
I am continuously losing my place in the book. I contacted AppleCare and was told (paraphrasing) that there was nothing they could do since there is no sync button, everything is supposed to be done automatically.
Please advise if you have any advice here. I will not be purchasing any iBooks until the issue is resolved.
Thanks!

I contacted AppleCare and was told the following...
The only time iBooks will sync is when pressing the Library button to close the book and return to the iBooks library.
Press the Home button
Press the Home button and completely close the app (double-tap home button, swipe up on iBooks)
I have tried everything and they are sending an escalation to their engineers for an update. Until then, no news and nothing left to report.
I tested this same issue with Kindle and Google Books; Kindle syncs only the furthest page read, Google Books syncs the current page read (as iBooks is supposed to do), and it works reliably in both cases.
I'm guessing this is a bug in the iBooks app as I did not have this issue with iBooks since iPad 1 in 2010.

Text Shortcuts on Mac not syncing with iOS Devices

It appears that my iOS devices are syncing text shortcuts, because when I add/remove one from one device, it's replicated on the other devices.
However, text shortcut changes made on my Mac ( Macbook Air, latest Mavericks version ) are not replicated to the iOS devices, and vice-versa. It's like my iPad and iPhone have decided to share with each other , and ignore my Mac.
I tried deleting the com~apple~Textinput folder, but that did not have any effect. I also tried turning iCloud off and on on my Mac, and that did not help, either.
Ideas on how to fix this?

I figured it out, I turned off Document syncing on all devices, then deleted the ~Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~TextInput folder instead of the subfolders that I deleted the first time, Then I turned document syncing back on (warning , all text shortcuts are gone! ) on my Mac, and then on my iOS devices.
It took a few minutes for my devices to catchup, but they all went to zero text shortcuts, and I was able to create a new text shortcut on each device and have it replicate to the other devices.
While this fixed my problem, it's a good idea to back up your text shortcuts to another program( evernote? ) in case you need to do what I just did to fix a syncing issue.

Games are not syncing across iOS devices

My games are not syncing across my iOS devices. Both my iPhone and iPad are running the same software and are linked to the same account. However my games don't seem to sync. Which is annoying if I'm playing a game on one device I have to start over on another. For example temple run does not sync. Anyone have any suggestions. I'm also having the same problem with infinity blade 2.

Game syncs only work for games that support iCloud. The game developer has to enable that feature. There are several games such as Jetpack Joyride and League of Evil 2 that support iCloud syncing of games. Unfortunately, other games like Temple Run don't do that since the dev never implemented that feature.

WIFI password not synced with iOS device

For short: I'm excluded off my own WIFI net because Apple's iCloud Keychain didn't sync the WIFI password from my MacBook to my iPad.
For my holidays I bought a nice portable WIFI hard disk. This device can not only take the memory cards of my camera and store the images without any computer, but also establishes a WIFI network, by which I can access the content of the mobile harddisk wirelessly.
At home, I configured this neat device with my MacBookPro and accessed it via WIFI by choosing the WIFI hard disk's network and entering the password, which Apple suggested during the configuration process of the WIFI hard disk. At this moment (entering the WIFI password to connect with the hard disk's network), I had to recurr onto the OSX keychain helper: look for the formerly entered password and paste it into the WIFI accounting form - and check the box "store in the icloud keychain". Ok.
Ok? Nothing's ok on my iOS devices (iPad and iPhone). Why?
By checking the box, I was sure that the password would indeed be synced with and stored within the iCloud keychain.
But I went wrong!
Now on holidays, with my camera, my iPad, my WIFI hard disk and – without my MacBookPro (because it's a holidays killer) – I tried to connect my iPad with the WIFI of the mobile hard disk. Seeing it's WIFI network, I tapped on it and got the accounting dialog: Enter password.
Which password?!?
I had instructed the Apple iCloud to store this password – and deliver it to any authorized device if needed.
But Apple, seemingly, did NOT do this and failed to deliver the password to my iPad (which is naturally registered to the same Apple ID as my MacBook).
What shall I do now? I have NO access neither to my MacBookPro (which is at home) nor to my iCloud keychain (which Apple thinks the best to protect against me).
To be honest, I feel patronized in a very ugly way by Apple - once again.
My question is: Why isn't there a way to access or manage the iCloud keychain from an iOS device? Should it be that Apple thinks these devices are LESS SECURE?
Any help is very welcome! Thanks in advance.

Thanks, FromSouth -
I called Apple Support and they also said that she has to have access to my iCloud account. We did figure out that some of the notes from 2011 and 2012 are from a shared business account which also allows notes, but that is a Verizon account and should not impact, in any way, shape, or form, the iCloud account.
I do not believe my daughter actually did this; I am guessing that her iCloud account was also accessed by her husband (who is not a good guy), and he, without her knowledge, synced her iCloud to his iPhone to track all her stuff. I then believe he got hold of mine and did the same a couple of days ago, as we are all together for a large family vacation (in the same house).
I guess I have a couple more questions about this, though:
Normally, when you sync a new device with your account, you get a message on all your old devices - but I did not get anything of the kind. How would this be possible? I guess maybe if he synced it while standing there with my iPad, then my iPad would get an alert, and he would just turn it off?? (I know all this sounds excessive, but believe me, he'd go to this length.)
I find it difficult to believe that he could have cracked my iCloud password - it's not something that anyone would ever put together easily. How would he be able to access the account without a password? Is there any kind of app or software that he could have installed on my iPad that would allow that? (Again, believe me, he'd do it.)
Is there any way to see in iCloud what devices are linked to the account? That alone would show me what device has this.
Finally, I have my iPad password-protected, so I cannot imagine he would have gotten into my iPad in the first place...how would he have gained access to this otherwise? I really thought I was being very smart on how I set this all up, and two days in the same location as him and now this....
I really thank you for any help you can give me on this one...
Thanks!

Notes sync between iOS devices problem

Whenver I create notes on my iphone, they sync to my ipad, but when I create them on my ipad, they do not sync to my iphone. My ipad is on ios 7 and my iphone is on ios 5. Is this the reason why?

On the ipad go to settings and notes and make sure that default notes are the same as on your phone.

Yahoo calender will not sync on iOS device

Hello,
My Yahoo calender will not sync with the standard calender app on my iPhone. New appointments, entered in the Yahoo calender appear not on the iPhone.
Switchting on/off the calender in Yahoo forces an update to the iPhone, nothing else helps. Anyone familiar with this problem?
Thanks.

had same issues. I put event via iphone and did not sync with yahoo but did with ical on the mac. main problem was writing events on the iphone not syncing. I have tried many ways to solve but I may have seemed to solve it (for me anyway) but you could give it a try.
Go to Settings- Mail,contacts,calenders.
Scroll down to calenders.
Choose DEFAULT CALENDER.
If it is ticked on icloud change it to Yahoo! which is probably at the top.
I then tried to write an event via the iphone and hey presto, it was added to my yahoo and ical calenders. Remember it may take a while unless you have set everything to push. i will give this a few tests (as i onlytried it a few moments ago myself) but seems to work.

Keyboard shortcuts do not sync between iOS devices

I use keyboard shortcuts a lot - mainly because im lazy but also because I have fat thumbs and tend to make lots of spelling mistakes. Prior to upgrading to iOS 8.1.1 I had the same problem reported elsewhere that my shortcuts kept disappearing but after the upgrade that no longer happens (touch wood). Now however I find that if I add a new shortcut to my iPhone 4s, it doesn't get synced to my iPad mini. Both devices are running iOS 8.1.2 and both have iCloud drive enabled and signed in to the same Apple account. I've tried doing a hard reboot on both devices, signing out and back into iCloud. Not sure what else to try. Any ideas?

I contacted AppleCare and was told the following...
The only time iBooks will sync is when pressing the Library button to close the book and return to the iBooks library.
Press the Home button
Press the Home button and completely close the app (double-tap home button, swipe up on iBooks)

Notes not syncing between iOS devices and MacBook Pro

Notes created on my MacBook Pro and iPad Air are not showing up on my iPhone6 and notes created on my iPhone6 are not showing up on the MacBook and iPad unless I restart my iPhone. The iPad and MacBook are syncing fine just not the iPhone.... all three devices are signed into the same iCloud account and Notes are set to sync on all three devices.

I tried that a few times but it didn't do anything...
It seems to be working now... after I restarted and the notes showed up it still wouldn't show any new ones but they all of the sudden showed up and it's syncing now... So I guess the problem is fixed but I have no idea how!

IPhoto sync with iOS Devices does not work

I have an 2007 iMac with OS X 10.9.1, iTunes 11.1.3 and iPhoto 9.5.1.
I have an iPad 2 with iOS 7.0.4 and iPhone 4 with iOS 7.0.4.
Around the update to OS X 10.9 I have the problem that I can't sync my iPhoto pictures with my iOS devices anymore.
Beforehand I had no problem. But I can't tell exactly when this problem pop up the first time. (iOS 7, OSX 10.9, iTunes or iPhoto update???)
The problem is: I can sync all my content with my iOS devices per iTunes without any problemsbut not the fotos from the iPhoto library.
If I go to the Foto sync page in iTunes I see all my iPhoto Albums, Events, ... I can select and desect all these items. But if I sync this items I see that in the used memory bar no pictures are shown, the foto count do not show any number and on the iOS device all pictures are removed.
To fix this problem I have tried some options.
I have disabled the foto sync in iTunes, close iTunes, close iPhoto, remove the iPod cache from the iPhoto library, recreated the iPhoto database, obened iPhot and iTunes again, connectd the iOS device and try to sync some albums from the iPhoto libray again. But no pictuers are synced.
I have created a new iPhoto library and added some fotos to the new library, created some albums. Then I tried to sync the iOS device with this library. The first sync wored. :-). But then I disconnected the iOS device and later I connected it again and synced another time and all fotos are gone again.
The only way I can sync my fotos is to switch to folder sync instead of iPhoto library sync. This work, but this is a very bad option!
What can I do to fix this problem?

Open the iPhoto Libraray with the Finder as shown in this screenshot
and locate the folder titled iPod Photo Cache and move it to the Desktop.
Close iPhoto, lanuch and try again.

Captivate 8: Edge Inspect not finding devices

Using Windows desktop computer running Windows 7 Ultimate and Captivate 8 and trying to preview in Edge Inspect. I have a MacBook Pro laptop booted to the Mac OS, and an iPhone, that are connected to my network. I know they are connected to my network because I'm able to browse and receive email on those devices.
The Edge Inspect plug in is installed in Chrome, but when I click the Edge Inspect icon in Chrome, I get a "Waiting for a connection..." message that never goes away, and the MacBook Pro and iPhone devices never appear.
There must be a place to specify which devices I want to preview. What do I need to do to preview at least my iPhone in Edge Inspect? (Once I know how to do that, I also want to preview the project on my iPad.)

I watched the Dr. Pooja video where she explains how to use Edge Inspect. Her instructions were at such a high level and lacking important details it made me wonder if she has ever used Edge Inspect with Captivate herself.
I finally found this
Adobe® Edge Inspect Installation Guide
which explains in detail what needs to be done.
After following the instructions in the Edge Inspect Installation Guide, I was finally able to view my Captivate project on my iPhone.

Adobe Edge Inspect says I'm offline. I'm not offline.

I have Adobe Shadow installed. It works.
I just installed Adobe Edge Inspect, but it says I'm "offline". The problem is that I am not actually offline. Any help for this dead-end?

When does this error pop up for you?
Are you getting this after you sign in with your e-mail address?
Or does it appear as soon as you open the app, or when?
Also, what version of Mac OS are you running?
Are you running any security software, like firewalls or proxies?

Edge Inspect not working for domain.dev URL's running locally on my laptop, displays error message.

"An error occured
Web page not availiable".
This, printed on a white screen, on my iphone5 (OSX and iOS all running latest updates, latest Adobe Edge Inspect, freshly downloaded) is all I see when I try to visit any of the sites I run on my laptop with Apache.
I set up my domains as "http://foobar.dev" (where '.dev' is the TLD on my localhost for things ... local).
I can view any public internet sites, and they will show up on Edge Inspect on my phone, with no problem.
I've tested this with turning off the firewall on my computer... (but I'm surprised thats how edge works, but what ever).
Any guides? tricks? help?
Thanks.

Edge Inspect doesn't do anything different to read the website off your computer than a normal browser does. We send a URL to the connected devices and expect them to be able to load that address into the WebView/UIWebView components in the Edge Inspect app on the devices.The reason you're seeing an issue with Edge Inspect and your http://foobar.dev site is the same reason why you wouldn't/shouldn't expect to type that URL into a browser on another machine and be able to view the website... there's no external DNS server to talk to that knows where that address is actually located.
So, Edge Inspect might be doing less than you thought is was in those terms. The main focus of Edge Inspect really is:
1. Managing the connection from your computer to multiple connected devices
2. Translating localhost, 127.0.0.1, and <machinename>.local urls
3. Keeping multiple devices in sync
4. Simplifying things like cache clearing and screenshots on all your devices
5. Providing a simple interface into weinre for remote inspection
Definitely read more on xip.io. It's a public website, yes. We don't have anything to do with it, but it does provide a nice workflow for using virtual hosts with Edge Inspect.
