Automate BT FON login on Windows 7

Hi,
As per the title, is there a way to automate the BT FON login on Windows 7 (i.e the equivalent of the BT FON app on Android or iPhones etc)..?
Cheers
Simon

Thanks, I can get connected to BT FON hotspots just fine, but then I need to enter my username/password to connect to the Internet. It's that part I'd like to automate. 
Sorry I didn't get that point, and to be honest would have guessed that it couldn't be done. I tried it myself though, and was surprised that my log-in information was retained; even after rebooting, the computer would connect automatically to my own hotspot. However, there is another BT WiFi hotspot in range of my hub and connecting to that brought up the landing page; but if I then choose the other one as default it will also subsequently connect automatically.
If that experiment is representative, the answer seems to be that you can log in automatically but can't port the details to another hotspot.
(By the way I've amended my previous post to clarify that you need to check "Connect automatically" before "Connect" to get the hotspot into your Windows list of connections, though I assume you would have done that.)

  • How do I get an encrypted dmg on a network share to automatically mount at login?

    I need to mount an encrypted dmg that is stored on an SMB share to automatically mount at login.  I've got the SMB share to mount at login as a "Login Item," but I can't get the encrypted dmg to mount.
    A related question:
    I've got a shell script that mounts my encrypted image, copies data using rsync, and then unmounts the encrypted image.  I tried automating this using a cronjob, but cronjobs are nut run as $USER.  Since the cronjob isn't run as $USER, the cronjob does not have access to the $USER's keychain and cannot authenticate to the encrypted dmg.  Any tips on getting either of these to work?

    I don't use SMB so I'm not sure whether this will work, but try it. Open a TextEdit window and type something like this:
    smb://user:password@server/path-to-file
    Make the obvious substitutions in the text, then select it and drag it to the Desktop. You should get a bookmark file. Double-click it to test. If it works, you can rename the file and put it anywhere you like. Add it to your login items.
    If the above doesn't work, try again with "cifs" in place of "smb".
    The "user:password@" part may not be necessary if the password is in your keychain.

  • How can I mount an encrypted image automatically and get a password window

    Hello
    I know how to mount an encrypted image automatically when I login and get myself a password window.  (I actually how I did it at the moment though).  I had a cronjob log me out at say 5am every day and I force myself to login everyday.
    Now I have a need to keep the login session forever.  I would therefore like to mount the image automatically at a specified time daily and get the same window prompt.  If do it from a bash prompt with 'hdiutil attach /path' I am getting a password prompt at the bash instead of a password windows.  I am thinking of putting that command in cronjob.
    What must I do to get a password window automagically?  If doing it via cronjob is wrong, I am open to other proper Mac way.
    Thanks
    mr.wu

    You can use Automator and iCal. Use Automator's Run Shell Sript action and enter hdiutil attach /path. Save the workflow as an iCal plugin. Set iCal to run the workflow when you want. You can also save the workflow as an application, and set up an iCal alarm to run that application at a specified time.

  • OS 3.0, VPN, Automatic Wf-Fi Login Issue?

    Hi everyone.
    I'm having a problem since my upgrade to OS 3.0. Previously, I could connect to the Wi-Fi network at my office and then initiate a VPN connection (which our IT department requires for all wireless connections as a security feature) and all worked well. Since the OS 3.0 upgrade, however, I am having problems. When I attempt to connect to the wireless network, a browser window opens that says something about login at the top. The page shown is the page on our company domain to download the Windows VPN client )in other words, there is nothing to log into). If I cancel out of this browser window I am disconnected from the wireless network without the opportunity to initiate the VPN connection that is required for access. I suspect this has something to do with the new Automatic Wi-Fi login feature. Unfortunately, I don't see any way to turn that off to get back to what was working in OS 2.1. Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Cannot login my Windows 8.1 Pro with my live ID, don't have the Microsoft Logon Option

    My laptop was installed with a Windows 8.1 Pro, and it worked very well before, i can login with my domain account and Windows Live ID, but today when i startup my laptop and i cannot find the option "Login with Microsoft/Live ID", i only can login
    with "Domain account/Local Account/SmartCard".
    Microsoft Account/Live ID is a local administrator but my domain account seems is not a local administrator.
    Now even i can login with my domain account, but i cannot change anything, because i'm not a administator, so how to make the "Microsoft Account" login available when i login the windows? (by the way, i cannot add a new login in the "Change
    PC Settings->Accounts", because my domain account is not a local administrator)
    thanks.

    Hi William,
    According to your description,I would like to know if you can see "Other User" option on the login screen.
    If you can see it,please click it and type your microsoft account.
    If you cannot see this option,please click Switch user to check the result.
    If the issue still persists, please upload the screenshot.

  • Is there a way to make links automatically open in a new window / new tab when viewing the PDF online

    Hi there,
    Currently we are adjusting our PDF files at our company, in order to make them more "user-friendly".
    We are looking for a way, when our customers view the PDFs online, that the URL that is in the PDF, when clicked on, will automatically open in a new window, instead of opening the URL in the same window as the PDF is opened..
    Could some-one please help me this?
    regards,

    It worked for me. See the source of my example at (PDF link to open in new window). (Sorry, that is the default title of the test page.)

  • I have multiple iPhoto libraries and when I selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open apps window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

    I have multiple iPhoto libraries on my Macbook Air 10.7.5 and when I am selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open application window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

    If you're pushing Option at the exact moment you're clicking the Dock icon, it's supposed to do that. Wait until just after clicking it.

  • TS1717 I cannot get iTunes to automatically launch at startup in Windows 7. I need it to do this so my Apple TV 'finds' my Music Library, which is stored on an external hard-drive, connected to my Windows 7 PC.

    I cannot get iTunes to automatically launch at startup in Windows 7. I need it to do this so my Apple TV 'finds' my Music Library, which is stored on an external hard-drive, connected to my Windows 7 PC. Anyone know how I do this? I cannot seem to find anything on Google, which is surprising.
    iTunes helper launches OK, but not iTunes itself. Am I being dim?
    Thanks

    The iTunes application should be installed on the system drive. You may need to repair iTunes to fix that error regarding a missing .exe.
    To organize your library properly see Make a split library portable.
    If you don't have a working version of the library that can be transformed into a portable shape I have tools and techniques that can repair the broken links.

  • I'm using Premiere Elements 11, which automatically opens in a project window for HD. I want to reset the default for SD. How can I reset the defaul for opening a project?

    I'm using Premiere Elements 11, which automatically opens in a project window for HD. I want to reset the default for SD. How can I reset the default for opening a project?

    scottypet
    For Premiere Elements 11 and 12, you cannot change its default project preset from NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 or its PAL counterpart PAL AVCHD Full HD1080i25 to something else.
    For each project, you can set the project preset manually if you do not want the program to take over setting the project preset based
    on the properties of the first drag to the Timeline.
    To set the project preset manually, open the project to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings.
    In the Change Settings area, change the project preset. Before you exit that area, be sure to have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project" in the new project dialog.
    Then you import your source media, using the appropriate Add Media choice.
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
    If you want a version of Premiere Elements that uses the default project preset of NTSC DV Standard or its PAL counterpart PAL DV Standard, then you need to look to a version of Premiere Elements earlier than 11.
    Please let me know if you have any further questions on this or need clarification.
    Thank you.

    Your description is a bit too generic.
    Try to see first if you are able to connect with AD on client tools like Deski or Designer
    Test the kinit command if it works with the clients tools.
