Best and most secure tracking option for large scale iPad deployment?

Hi, we are deploying iPads to hotel rooms on a large scale basis and need to find an appropriate solution to securely track them in case they are stolen.
We are actually considering Find my iPhone for its simplicity, but the 100 devices limit and also the fact it is relatively easy to disable poses a problem.
On the other spectrum there is AirWatch which is very expensive.
I was wondering if any other options are available for this?
Best regards
Florian

MobileIron Sentry iPad app, enterprise IT departments can track iPhones and iPads, view device inventory, block offending or compromised devices, and remotely wipe stolen, lost or compromised units. The application also enables remotely suspending email access for active staff, just-terminated employees, and others.
Just read about it.

  • What is the best and most stable firmware for wrt1900ac?

    I recently got the wrt1900ac and I wabt to update the firmware. What is the best and most stable firmware for wrt1900ac?

    The most current version is pretty stable aside the Network Map App which is known to cause a router reboot. Linksys is aware of this and is working on fixing it. Just don't use this app.
    Internet Service Provider and Modem Configurations
    What ISP Service do you have? Cable or DSL?
    What ISP Modem Mfr. and model # do you have?
    To safely update FW, I recommend doing the following:
    1. Save router config to file first using IE or FF with all security add-ons disabled.
    2. Factory reset the router with all other devices disconnected or turned OFF accept for 1 wired PC.
    3. Reload or Update the FW using IE or FF. Just download the FW file to your local wired LAN PC.
    4. Factory reset the router and then set up from scratch first and test with out loading the saved config from file. Check to see if any problems are fixed before loading the saved config from file. Sometimes you need to set up from scratch with out loading the saved config file. Just safer that way.
     Any other WiFi routers in the area? Link> Use http://www.techspot.com/downloads/5936-inssider.html to find out. Use v3. How many? 
    My current WiFi settings that are working well are Mixed Mode on both radios, Mixed Channel width on both radios, WPA2 only. Manual channel 11 on 2.4Ghz and 149 on 5Ghz. However those channels for your use will depend on whos near by your surroundings found in the InSSIDer app and you'll need to adjust accordingly to channels that are not being used which are preferred 1, 6 and 11 or (13 for out side of the north america region) on 2.4Ghz. WPS, Media Filter and IPv6 disabled. USB Drive Share, WMM and Media Prioritization enabled. LinksysSmartWiFi is enabled along with mobile access app on Iphone 4S works.

    when the drive is not connected, +iTunes media folder location+ will default back to <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music/iTunes/iTunes music (or media)
    and when I next connect the external hard drive how will I easily get the newly downloaded media onto the external HD
    you'd have to point +iTunes media folder location+ back to the external via preferences > advanced > iTunes media folder location, then file > library, organize library > consolidate files
    and essentially, to have it easily readable on both machines?
    in that case it might be best to copy the entire iTunes folder to the external. then, on each machine, launch iTunes while pressing option on your keyboard. when prompted, click on +choose library+ and navigate to the iTunes folder on the external.
    note only one iTunes can access the iTunes library @ a time !
    also, make sure the external is mounted on either machine before launching iTunes.

  • We want to create an online contract form with different options which will determine different prices as they make their choices. We will also require a legally binding e-signature. Is Acrobat the best product or even an option for this?

    We want to create an online contract form with different options which will determine different prices as they make their choices. We will also require a legally binding e-signature. Is Acrobat the best product or even an option for this?

    You need to use form fields. See the Acrobat help section and this site: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/
    However, that last part (receiving an automatic response when a form is submitted) has nothing to do with Acrobat, or even with the PDF file. This is something you'll need to set up on your web (or email) server.

  • What is the best and least expensive wireless printer for ipad2?

    What is the best and least expensive wireless printer for ipad2?

    Do you mean a external cd/dvd drive that connects by usb port? If you do then any brand will work. It does not have to be a apple brand for it to work on your mac. Most go for around $30 in the usa.
    I use a asus brand that cost me just under $30. Works on any computer it is connect to.

    Read the documentation at the links.  They won't hurt your data. 
    Basically smc reset is shutdown, pull your plug for 15 seconds, plug it back in, wait 5 seconds, and reboot.  Harmless to you.  Resets the smc.
    Pram reset is similar but you need to push commnd-option-P-R after the boot chime.  Read what does.

  • About shell scripts for large-scale automation of  encoding tasks

    in the user menu of Compressor, it said that we can use the command line to write shell scripts for large-scale automation of encoding tasks.
    I would like to have more information about the shell script for compressor, is that any document link?
    Thanks

    You can use a script function to set-up a more secure environment that you call at the start of every admin script. This could be your main stamp album for stuff that can be moved there.
    A few more stamps to add to the collection (be sure to read up on them before use):
    1) reset the command hash
    hash -r
    2) prevent core dumps
    ulimit -H -c0
    3) set the IFS
    4) clear all aliases  (see unalias -a)
    Also you can remove the ALL from sudo and add explicit commands to the the sudoers file. There's a lot of fine tuning you can do in sudoers - inc. env variables as teekay said.
    But I'm no expert so best to check all of the above.

  • What design aids for large-scale application (using LV6i) exist?

    I have a large-scale application that includes analog and digital I/O, motion control, multiple temperature readings, Ethernet communication, RS-232, DDE and ActiveX controls for communicating with other commercial software. We have to improve the system performance and ease the pain of maintaining and upgrading. What aids are there for large-scale application design and development?

    This doesn't exactly count as development "tools" but I can send you copies of three papers that I found when I was just getting started with LV. They can show you how to think about your problem--and that is really the hardest (and most important) part.
    Contact me directly and I'll email them to you. The archive is to large to post.

  • HT1535 The option for "On this IPad" does not appear?

    Despite having a manual set up of content checked, the option for "On this IPad" does not appear? Why is this?

    Hi pmbrady,
    The "On this [device]" tab will only show up if you are in the non-sidebar view of iTunes. In short, if you have the sidebar on the left hand side, you will want to use the disclosure triangle (left of your device name) to view what is on the device.

  • Best way to secure Aironet 1200 for small office

    We are getting ready to install 4 aironet 1200 AP's into an office that will only be used by 5 people with T43 Thinkpads (Intel 2200 built-in card).
    What is the best method to secure the connection and prevent the outside world from accessing our internal network?
    I don't feel WEP/WPA encryption is enough -- Would be interested in using the built in security that comes with the Aironet and not an external security server, yet.
    Any info or push in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    You could pretty easily use the "local" RADIUS built-in to the AP firmware and implement LEAP or EAP-FAST.
    Both are pretty easy to set up, the AP can handle that small load without any real performance issues, and the Intel client software supports it (you'll want to make sure all the client software and drivers are the most recent, there were some issues in the past).
    Both LEAP and EAP-FASt will support seamless roaming, You'd set one of the APs up for WDS and the others to point to it.
    Admin (add/change/delete users) via the Web GUI is also pretty straight forward.
    Good Luck

  • I downloaded the iOs 6.1.3 and now my pictures and most apps I payed for are gone. Is there anyway to retrieve them?

    I went to download the Yahoo! app on my iPod and it said I had to download the iOs 6.1.3 to get the app. I did so and I also dowloaded the newest iTunes on my computer. I had all my pictures and apps backed up on iCloud. After the update I checked my pictures and they were all gone. I also looked at my apps and most of them are gone and for a couple of free apps that I made purchases within, the information was erased. For example, I had the free version of the Harry Potter Spells app. Inside the app I bought the spell packages and when I got the game back on my iPod after the update, the information was erased. That's not fair especially because I paid for those and iFeel as though Apple has ripped me off. (Please pardon my pun.) But what I really want to know is if there is someway to retrieve them?

    Restore from iCloud Backup step by step
    1. Erase all contents and settings (Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings)
    2. You'll be asked twice to confirm
    3. You'll see Apple logo and progress bar
    4. You'll see a big iPad logo on screen
    5. Configuration start
    6. Set language
    7. Set country
    8. Enable Location Service
    9. Select network, enter password and join network
    10. You'll be given 3 options (a) Setup as New iPad (b) Restore from iCloud Backup (c) Restore from iTune Backup
    11. Selected Restore from iCloud Backup
    12. You'll be required to enter Apple ID and Password
    13. Agree to Terms and Conditions
    14. Select Backup file
    15. You'll see progress bar
    16. Red slider will appear; slide to unlock; step #1 to #16 is fast
    17. Pre-installed apps will be restored first
    18. Message: Purchased apps and media will now be automatically downloaded
    19. You'll see a pageful of apps with Waiting/Loading/Installing
    20. When the restore process is complete, your device will restart. You should connect the device to iTunes to sync data not contained in the backup (such as music, videos, apps, and so on).
