An explanation of each of these system location services? ...

I'm trying to find a fairly detailed explanation of what each of these system location services does and is for? I haven't found much Googling around, anyone know of a good article or explanation?
Thanks very much in advance,
Chris

The function of the individual settings is largely self-explanatory from the label for each.

  • How do I export photos taken in an Iphone or Ipad Camera app and retain each of the photos location data?

    I know this question must have been answered somewhere but I must not be searching for the right terms because I haven't been able to find clear instructions. I am using iPhones (4s) and iPadminis on IOS 8/8.1. I run ITunes on a Windows PC.
    I want to be able to export photos which keep their metadata/exif data, including the location data that is acquired when the photo is taken. I have location services turned on for the Camera app. When I view the photos in the Photos app it appears to have kept some location services because it accurately identifies the place the photo was taken. How do I export these photos so they retain that location information?
    I have previously exported the photos by using the iphone and ipad as an external hardrive and just copied the files off the devices. When I open these photos in windows explorer they do not appear to have maintained more than the time the photo was taken. They do not show any location information in third party software like Picasa or Geosetter (My previous experience has been exporting images from a non apple camera and then syncing it with a handheld gps to update the exif data). I don't find syncing photos through Itunes very intuitive.
    What are my options? What are the solutions? If you have a solution can you please explain a little about what is happening to the files and the metadata/exif data at each stage of the process.
    Many thanks,
    Clare

    Export the project to iTunes
    Copy the project file to your computer
    Rename <File>.IMovieMobile as <File>.zip
    Extract the contents of the .zip file
    Your photos and clips will be in the Assets folder

    How do I add my new iPhone4s to iCloud's "Find my iPhone"? I followed the iCloud instructions and turned on Macbook Pros' system prefs to "find my mac", turned on iPhone4s's "location services" and set up iCloud, etc. In the "Find my iphone" tab of my new iCloud account (on my Macbook Pro) my iPhone4s still won't show—but my macbook does show. I had my iPhone4s set up at the phone store (2 days ago) and It receives gmail, my contacts and calender entries, the weather, etc. I installed the "Find iPhone" app from iTunes on the iPhone4s, synched to iTunes, even reset the phone, but the only device that gets located is my Macbook Pro. I can send a "sound" message to my Mac (and the Mac recieves it) but unable to see the iPhone4s from my Mac, let alone send any message. Any suggestions to get the iPhone4s device to appear in iCloud?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    OK, I figured it out...I deleted the iCloud account off my iPhone (Settings, iCloud, Delete Account), and then added iCloud back in (Settings, iCloud, SignIn)....and then my email (iCloud) and "Find my phone" features worked! Nice!!!!

  • How do I turn off the Genius app in App Store. I've gone to Settings/Privacy/Location Services/System Services then swiped Genius for apps 'off''. Also, I've gone to Settings/ITunes and App Stores/Click on AppleID/View Apple ID and then turn off Genius.

    How do I turn off the Genius app in App Store. I've gone to Settings/Privacy/Location Services/System Services then swiped Genius for apps 'off''. Also, I've gone to Settings/ITunes and App Stores/Click on AppleID/View Apple ID and then turn off Genius. Still nothing has worked. I'm still stuck with Genius offering the same apps to me. Mind you, once I click on the App Store there is nothing I can do but swipe left and right. There's absolutely nothing at the bottom of the screen like a features tab, nothing. There is, however, a categories button at the top, but that's it. Irrelevant.

    FWIW, I just got off the phone with Apple technical support about this.  I use Genuis for creating playlists, so I don't want to disable it, but Apple support confirmed that there is no way to avoid syncing Genius data without disabling Genius altogether.  I'd read somewhere else that subscribing to iTunes Match might allow you to avoid this, but that is NOT the case, as I've confirmed, and Apple support has confirmed.  For me, it routinely syncs thousands genius of items, so I have to allow a lot of time for my manual syncs.

  • In lion can I clear the list of applications that have requested Location Services under System Preferences...Security

    In Lion, can I clear the list of applications that have requested Location Services under System Preferences...Security & Privacy…Privacy?
    I have uninstalled an application but the name of the app is still showing up in this list of apps.  I have disabled it but was wondering if there is a way to remove it from this list.

    I don't believe you can since it is populated automatically by the system. FWIW, I do not have location services enabled - I chose not to since I have no intention of tucking my 27" under my arm and taking it somewhere. And, I deny any request any app wanting to use it and have not experienced any error messages because of it.

  • Should these System Preferences match or is it better that the System sets 'Sharing Prefs' (set-up-name's-macbook-pro.local) and Networking/Advanced/WINS name MACBOOKPRO-****) *=numeric digit or letter

    I'm now on another fresh OS reinstall which reverted back to the OEM Mountain Lion 10.8.4 after an upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 When I first thought that the failed OS X upgrade could have been the caused by some conflicting networking settings that I discovered in System Preferences. I tried to match the computer name which I gave at setup which the File Sharing section users i.e. name's-macbook-pro.local with the WORKGROUP name which is generated in the System Preferences/Network Preferences/Advanced WINS section uses MACBOOKPRO-****.
    However I am not using a Windows PC at the moment and don't expect to be sharing with anyone else using one so I'm a touch uneasy seeing these SMB WORKGROUP settings being established by the System and realising that these settings are not allowing the Administrator user (me) override as. If I do unlock my Networking Preferences settings to edit the WINS WORKGROUP name which is automatically generated as "MACBOOKPRO-****" whatever I enter reverts back to the settings the System has chosen, if I delete this generated name the default System WORKGROP name is reset even after pressing 'Apply' and locking the Networking Preferences again.
    The symptoms which make me uneasy are random visibility of a sharing server named as the first half of my Wi-Fi routers SSID ie: BTHub5 not the random letters and numbers that follow BTHub5-****.
    Problems setting up Lexmark and Epson printers. Suggested update from AppStore for Remote Desktop Client, I never purchased Remote Desktop but can see that there is a folder Remote Desktop Management in System/Core Services.
    Unexpected permission changes appearing all over the System, example being that the user group 'Wheel' changing to 'Staff' I don't employ people and don't want or need filesharing with other computers.
    Lots of System crash reports that mostly are listed as 'Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)'
    Is any of this normal or am I being stalked by a very persistent user? Thanks in advance for any tips you guys can give me.
    Cheers

  • "Add a column to show each of these additional fields: " doesn't support person feild

    "Add a column to show each of these additional fields: "  doesn't support person feild
    I've seen that its not supported in 2010 version of sharepoint but I was hoping in the last 3 years  its been fixed for the 2013 
    Any idea if this will be fixed or not?

    Given that it hasn't been fixed so far, i doubt it.
    The reason it doesn't work for some columns is that they themselves  are a form of lookup column. I suspect MS have disallowed it to prevent looping, where a lookup column eventually starts trying to look up on itself. There may be other technical challenges
    to making a double hop lookup column.

  • How to add these system in the system ID list?

        Please someone tell me.
         lexian
         Thanks a lot!

    Lexian,
    You need to some of these things for the SAP systems to show up in Solution Manager
    1. Install the Monitoring Agents (SAPCCM4X for ABAP instance and SAPCCMSR for J2EE instance etc)
    2. Configure RFCs from Solution Manager to the Satellite (SAP) systems.
    3. Create CSMREG user.
    4. Create Monitoring jobs.
    These are just some of the things that you will have to do. Refer this link on how to do this
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/c4/3a7da1505211d189550000e829fbbd/frameset.htm.
    This is for the broader view of the entire thing

  • File System Location properties: view path (OWB 11..2.0.1 Windows)

    Newbee question:
    From the tutorial "Handling Flat File and COBOL Copybook Sources in Mappings", I imported the metadata for ETL_OWNER. It contains file locations such as SRC_FLAT_FILES_LOCATION but I cannot find any way to view its path in the file system. I created my own file locations where I can specify a path in the Create File System Location wizard, but afterwards, I can neither inspect nor change the path.
    Thanks for help
    Sebastian

    Thank's for help, I am simply not used to the user interface. The Connections Explorer seems to have disappeared in 11gR2 but the Locations node still exists, listing all file locations. However, the property inspector does not display the file's path, somewhat counterintuitively. Double-klicking the file location opens the Edit window containing the path.

  • Please explain Location Services System Services

    Can someone please explain what the following on/off toggles in Settings > Location Services > System Preferences do:
    - Cell Network Serch
    - Compass Calibration (self-explainatory, I think)
    - Diagnostics & Usage
    - Location-Based iAds
    - Setting Time Zone (specifically, how is this different from Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically)
    - Traffic

    No, he is right. Cell Network Search collects signal and location data that is sent to apple and partners to improve network quality. If you do not believe us: try it! If you turn it off the A-GPS will still pick up cell towers and WiFi first to determine approx. location before using GPS satellite data. If it wouldn't it would take up to 12 minutes (!) to find you just using GPS satellite data. Or test it the other way around: Turn the status indicator on and watch it appear when your network changes...
    May I also explain you the other options in that menu?
    Compass Calibration uses location data to tell real north from magnetic north.
    Diagnostics &amp; Usage adds location to the other info that is collected.
    Location-Based iAds - well shows adds relevant to your location in apps using iAds
    Setting Time-Zone: iOS uses the info sent by GPS to set your time. But also most cell towers set time info, so if you are not living near a time line, in a bad service area or your current network provider does not send that info that info you can disable this and save battery by using your carriers info.
    Traffic: Determines where and how fast you are traveling to send it to Apple and partners to show other users how fast traffic is moving at that location.

  • Purpose each of these is: Gui_upload and upload

    Hi Friends,
    Kindly let me know what the Exact Purpose each of these is: Gui_upload and upload
    What is the difference between those two?
    Akshitha.

    Hi,
    UPLOAD fm is the old function module which is now obsolete. From 4.6C onwards SAP has delivered new FM's for uploading and that is GUI_UPLOAD.
    the diff is  UPLOAD pops up a box during runtime to accept the file path the GUI_UPLOAD does not pop up any box during runtime instead takes the path as a paramter.
    This is what SAP HELP SAYS
    Files on the Presentation Server
    WS_UPLOAD and WS_DOWNLOAD, the function modules used until now are not part of the standard set of ABAP commands. They are used to display the file interface on the presentation server. WS_UPLOAD and WS_DOWNLOAD are not compatible with USs and have been replaced by GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD.
    The new function modules, GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD, have an interface that also allows you to write Unicode format to the local hard drive. For a description of these interfaces, refer to the documentation for each function module, available under SAP Easy Access " Development " Function Builder " Goto " Documentation.
    Instead of using the function modules, you can use the static methods GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD of the global class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.
    Cheers

  • Wi-Fi Networking in Location Services System Services

    Hello,
    I'm trying to figure out what the "Wi-Fi Networking" toggle controls.  This is located withing Settings > Location Services > System Services > Wi-Fi Networking.
    Thanks for the help if anyone can provide any.  I've been searching around the web and can't find an answer on this one.

    I would like a clarification of this too. This aritlce is unhelpful on the point: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5594?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US The new user manual iBooks for iPad and iPhone are also not detailed enough to discuss this setting.
    Pappasbike, where did you find that reference?
    From what you've said, and a little more searching, I suspect the setting may be related to the new Hotspot 2.0 ("Passpoint") initiative:
    http://arstechnica.com/apple/2013/06/ios-7-will-hop-from-one-wi-fi-hotspot-to-an other-no-password-needed/
    http://appleinsider.com/articles/13/06/11/ios-7-beta-hotspot-20-support-will-lea d-to-hassle-free-wi-fi-access
    "Wi-Fi HotSpot 2.0: One of the more-technical terms on iOS 7’s additional features slide, Wi-Fi HotSpot 2.0 automatically seeks out Wi-Fi subscriber services (for instance, AT&T’s hotspot network for an AT&T iPhone subscriber) and joins them when you’re in the area. In theory, this feature should provide you with faster Internet access and fewer bandwidth constraints.": http://www.macworld.com/article/2041306/27-new-ios-7-features-apple-didnt-talk-a bout.html
    So, if I'm right, the setting is related to Apple building a crowd-sourced database of HotSpot 2.0/Passpoint access points/locations. Since I'm not liking the battery drain of iOS 7 as it is, this is staying off for me for now.

  • Amarok unable to handle system:// locations

    when i use the system:// location of KDE, amarok unable to locate the musik files, even if amarok was started by clicking the file.
    when i use the "direct" method (eg: /home/musik/.../dontknow.ogg) the musik plays fine.

    Yeah, you're right, I am currently using amaroK 1.4 beta 1, and if I try to add a track to the playlist from system:/home/media/audio/... , then it appears in the playlist but amaroK cannot play it. I looked in the amaroK bug database, and it seems that someone has filed a bug report about this for the xine engine. Are you using the xine engine? If not, then maybe you should go and report the bug. For now, maybe you could try using a different engine to see if that solves your problem.
