Apple Configurator Connection Issues with iPad 2s

I work at a public library that checks out iPad 2s. We have ten of them and use Apple Configurator 1.2.1 to keep them all on the same page. For some reason, though, we're now having some trouble with it.
All ten iPads lose their connection after being put into the Supervisor Mode. Sometimes the error is "internet error" and sometimes it's that the apps won't install. We've scaled back on the apps to the ones that are known good.
We're using iOS 6.1.2. Any advice would be appreciated.

Have you tried a factory reset of the homehub by pressing a pin into the recess button on the rear for about 20 seconds. This can often help wireless connections. When the Homehub is resetting, "forget" the connection to the homehub on your ipad then restart the ipad and once it has restarted, remake the connection to the homehub.

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • Cellular connectivity issue with iPad 4th gen

    Hi folks,
    I'm currently running iOS 7 beta 2 since it was made available for tablets on Monday. I am having a major cellular connectivity issue with Rogers. My iPhone 5 is also running iOS 7 beta 2 and has no issue with cellular connectivity (also on Rogers's network).
    On my iPad, I'm having full or almost full reception but data doesn't work at all. Tried reboot and hard reboot, resets of wireless settings and nothing fixed my issue.
    Is it related to iOS 7 beta 2? Is anyone having a similar issue?
    Btw, model is iPad3,5.
    Thanks!
    Chris

  • HT6160 What ports are used for Apple Configurator to function with IPads?

    Need to know what ports need to be allowed for Apple Configurator to function.

    Apple Configurator runs locally on an OS X computer. It requires a USB connection. So no ports required for connecting Configurator to iPads.
    However, there are some ports that need to be opened for iPads to work with Apple's server if you are behind a firewall. Here is a list of known TCP and UDP ports used by Apple software products: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6175?viewlocale=en_US
    To use iPads behind a firewall (Configurator or not), you'll want to definitely open 5223 for Apple Push Notification and the standard ports for HTTP/HTTPS (80 and 443). If you're using an MDM, you will likely need to open 2195 and 2196 as well.  If you still have issues port watch and see what an iPad does when trying to get to the store.
    Hope this answers your question!

  • When will Apple resolve its issue with Adobe so iPad users can use flash?

    When will Apple resolve its issue with Adobe so iPad users can access flash?

    That isn't going to happen. Adobe has not only given up on iOS, they have given up on all mobile device now.
    Why do you think you need Flash?

  • Anyone else having repeated wifi connectivity issues with the OSX version 10.8.5?

    I just updated the software on my iMac to OS X version 10.8.5. Now I am having repeated connectivity issues with the wifi in my house. This is the only device that is having these issues. My phone, ipad and tv are not having any problems at all.
    It happened immediately following the update. I was sending emails and browsing before the update without a problem.
    from apple:

    I had a message like that last week - only it asked what browser I would be using - I just quit safari - purges caches etc - and at that time noticed I was getting RSS feeds through PUBSUB - tracking them down to the top sites view I never use - I deleted all of the top sites (most of which I don't go into so it must have been a preset) that included MSN and Google - I don't use google so that was pointless.  (deleting a top site means you are blocking it from that page)    Have not had the message since so it must have had something to do with top sites activity.
    Just a note:  Did see somewhere probably BBC tech - that Google was going to stop supporting older web browsers.

  • Random Connectivity Issues with Time Capsule

    I am having random connectivity issues with my time capsule with my intel based iMac.  I don't have any issues with my MacAir, iPads or iPhones...  just the iMac.   It shows a "good" connection but sometimes...  TC won't be able to connect to run a backup or I can't get to the internet.   It doesn't appear to be an internet problem as I can get to the internet on other devices.   It appears to be a connection issue between the iMAC and the TC.   Thoughts or suggestions?

    Do a full reset of the iMac.. apparently after the latest Mountain Lion update it can cause issues. I have not needed to try this as I have not seen it myself but I track the treads very closely and this popped up.

  • Connection issues with Safari 3

    I'm having some connection issues with Safari 3.
    When I connect wirelessly, Safari won't load any web pages. I go and use Firefox and everything is just peachy.
    I've reset Safari, emptied the cache and whatnot. I went in and checked the permissions, everything checks out.
    When I connect with Ethernet, there's nothing wrong, which is my dilemma.
    Help would be greatly appreciated.

    There are a number of posts in the Leopard forum from people with direct experience with upgrading from Panther to Leopard. Here is a relevant thread from there that should reassure you.:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1418714
    Your system should be fine for Leopard, but you will probably need a current version of Photoshop if you don't already have it. See this download:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/products/pdfs/leopardsupport.pdf
    Also, Leopard doesn't run Classic (OS 9) apps.
    One caveat - first make a bootable backup "clone" of your present system onto an external firewire drive so you can recover if anything goes wrong. You can use the "Restore" tab of Disk Utility to make such a clone, and there are also Panther-compatible versions of Carbon Copy Cloner (v 2.3) and SuperDuper (v 2.1.4), both excellent for this.
    It's even possible to a create second Panther clone on a different external volume to create a "dual-boot" system, using that volume to continue to run old applications that you can't run with Leopard.

  • Connection issues with EA4500

    I had bad connection issues with my mobile device, so i pressed reset on my EA4500 router, and now when i connect to my network, it gives my limited connection even though i have 5 bars of signal. Not sure what to do now...

    Resetting the router will erase all the settings you configured on the router since the initial setup. You manually configure the router's wireless settings so your wireless devices can have internet access again.
    Procedure: http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=cfb50c0dc992443ab2405a782cca60f7_19073.xml&pid=80&...
    Make sure to use a computer that is hardwired via Ethernet cable to the router.

  • I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my MacBook. Constantly dropping internet connection or message "error connecting to the network" comes up. No wireless connectivity issues with windows 7 laptop or iphone.

    I have a MacBook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The last few weeks it has been constantly dropping internet connection, and one of these messages appear on the page: "Safari cannot open this page because the server where this page is located isn't responding" or "Safari cannot open this page because you are not connected to the internet" comes up. I will check Wifi and I am connected. No wifi connectivity issues with iphone or windows 7 laptop, this doesn't happen with either of those devices. I have unplugged and reset router, cleared cache, still happening. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

  • My friend is now facing one issue with iPad.

    My friend is now facing one issue with iPad. He clicked on screenshot (attached with email) with Google mail app (iPad) and the screenshot is now stuck open. He cannot close it using the little X in the upper right which does not respond. So his Gmail app is completely blocked by this open screenshot! tried everything including shutting down and rebotting his iPad.

    I use the Gmail app and have never had that problem. But Apple has nothing to do with the Gmail app. If you want to report a bug, report it to Google through the app itself.

  • BPC 4.2 connectivity issues with server

    Hello All, I have a user that is experiencing connectivity issues with our server.  This appears to be at a client level and I would like to know how to correct it.  We are currently using BPC 4.2 (service pack 2).
    The problem occurred when they had IE8 uninstalled and installed IE6 today.  This morning he had no issues connecting to BPC w/ IE8, but lost that connection when IE6 was installed.  When working through the connection wizard, the following errors appear.
    Here are the pop-up error messages they are receiving:
    "The server name, or IP address (srvbpmarl01) is unreachable now.  Please check the following:
    1.  LAN connection or Internet connection is working properly.
    2.  Server name or IP address is invalid
    Detailed Error Message:  Internet connection is not available"
    "The system cannot download information from server:  SRVBPMARL01.
    There may be a network or security issue.
    Error message:  Your LAN connection or Internet connection is not working properly.
    Detailed error message:  Internet connection is not available."
    I can't help but feel this issue is a result of the IE 8/6 complications, but I do not know which actions to take next.
    Thanks for any help you could provide!

    I don't think the problem is related to IE.
    It seems to be more a problem of configuration of IE.
    I suggest to chec the follow:
    1. Please make sure you are not using any proxy into connection of IE. Ot if you neede then make sure you will add your server into exceptions of proxy.
    2. Try to connect with IE to server. use: http://nameofserver/osoft and also http://nameofserver.
    If you received errors in both cases then it seems it is a problem with installaion of IE.
    If you are able to connect and to display the default page for osoft then it must be a configuration problem.
    I suppose MSDTC or Pivot table services is not correct.Try to use slow connection when you connect to server not High connection.

  • CR2008 connectivity issue with BOE Universes(sap and non sap universes)

    Hi Experts !!
    Recently we tried to build/connect to a Universe in Crystal Reports2008 via 'Make a new connection tab'.
    The universes are of SAP BW or non SAP Lying in BOE Servers and we are trying to build reports on them by conncting/utilizing the universes as a database for Crystal Reporting.
    Our issue is most of the time we are not able to connect to the Universes and the connectivity blows out by some 'communication Error' thing initially.
    While at some other points in time, the connectivity takes us to the Universe and we are able to select few characteristics and key figures from the Universe but the moment we go futher and try to run by pressing 'OK' button it blows out and say' LOGON FAILED'.
    Apparantly, it is an connectivity issue with BOE server and from the different blogs it looks like it is a known issue for long.
    The proposed issue resolution were like either CR2008 should be SP2 with BOE SP3 or there should be some additional .dll files defined in the paths in case of MSSQL database. None of this applies to us as we are on CR2008 with SP3 and going back to SP2 is probably not a viable option for us, and we are using Oracle as underlying database in this specific case.( i would like to tell you here that we are able to connect to Oracle Database directly though).
    We have raised a message with SAP and was just wondering if we do have some solution/workaround already available to this known issue in place please?
    Thanks&Regards.

    Hi Amit,
    Moved to Universe Forum.
    If you have a case logged then no point posting here also, this is a public site and not a case management tool.
    Once you do get the solution from your case please post it here also to help others if they have the same problem.
    Thank you
