  • What does it take to build smart card applications?

    Just out of interest I was wondering what does it take to build smart card applications:
    - Can I do it at home with my PC or do I have to have access to expensive hardware?
    - How difficult is it to master given that I do it on my own with no help. Does it involve a lot of hardware issues?
    - If hardware is required (a smart card and a cable connection), where do I get it and how much does it cost?

    Let me rephrase my question.
    I understand that the deployment process may not be so easy. That does not disturb me.
    I just want to know whether I'll experience hardware probelms. If reading/writing to the card involves putting it inside and taking it outside from the device just like a floppy disk without any complications, then I don't have any worries.
    By the way, does the reader device is used for both reading AND writing?

  • Does Mac Mini have inferior Airport Card?

    Ok after days on the phone with numerous Apple tech reps and no answers I want to hear from other Mini users.
    Problem is I cannot get the Mini to pickup the Airport Extreme base station in the other room which is only 17' away, through one wall. Have eliminated all possible interference issues. Changing channels in the Airport utility didn't help. When the Mini was in the same room as the Airport I had no connectivity issues. Airport was hard wired to an older iMac (lampshade).
    Now if I move the Airport closer and in direct view of the Mini (in separate room) I can pick up the Airport on the Mini. Not a strong signal but I do get a wireless connection. Soon as I move Airport back and out of view it drops. Also if I close door to room signal drops.
    Next thing I did was reverse the computer scenario. I hard wired the Mini to the Airport and placed the iMac in the other room. Had no connectivity issues here at all, in fact the iMac had a very strong signal even with the Airport placed over 20' away behind a wall and door closed. To me that seemed to eliminate any interference issues.
    So next call to the Apple tech I suggested that maybe I have a bad card in my Mini. He respectfully disagreed and said the iMac has a better antenna and that is why it had no connectivity issues. So I asked him if the Mini Airport card was inferior to the iMacs, even though the iMac was about 6 years old. He said no and then said I needed to speak with higher level Apple techs. He transferred me but after 2 hours on hold I hung up.
    So do I have a bad card in the Mini or is just an inferior product? Seems to me that I shouldn't have these problems connecting the Mini wirelessly. Seems absurd to have to have the Mini and Airport base station in direct view to get a connection. Anyone else with these issues? I especially want to hear from users in 12,000' MacMansions using Airport and the Mac Mini.

    The simple answer to your question is no, the mini doesn't have an inferior Airport card. In fact, it uses a standard card that can also be found in other Apple products. However, it does have a smaller antenna, and of course the antenna is mounted inside what amounts to a metal enclosure which makes the system a little less sensitive to wifi signals - particularly if there is anything placed directly on top of the mini's casing. It also means the mini's wifi reliability is affected a little more by sources of interference in the area, thus things like microwave ovens, cordless phones, other wifi networks on the same or adjacent channels, structures which reflect or deflect radio signals etc will tend to impact on the mini's signal strength and connectivity somewhat more than might be the case with other wifi devices in the same location.
    Typically you will find that even small changes in the location of the mini or wifi access point will affect signal quality. In this situation I would be inclined to download a copy of something like AP Grapher (from www.versiontracker.com) and use it to examine the strength and quality of signal, trying to find a location where the mini or access point give optimal signal strength and lowest noise.
    It is also possible that while the Airport card in your mini is working perfectly well, the connection to the antenna is not firmly made. If the system has been worked on at all, this is not an unusual problem, and there have been indications of some minis being sold where the airport antenna is not firmly connected, giving poor (or even no) wifi connectivity.
    I must say that at one point I had a very poor connection to my domestic wifi from a G4 mini used as a media center, such that moving data to it became quite tedious and prone to failure. I found the Airport signal strength was generally quite low, despite there being little more than about 20 feet between the system and base station. I checked the Airport base station's transmission strength and found it had been set low, so reset that to full power and that helped a great deal, but eventually replaced the Apple base station with a Belkin wifi router, and that has resolved the problem completely.
    Since wifi is merely radio at a frequency and power that is susceptible to interference, deflection, absorption and degradation, even over short ranges, there can be many factors affecting signal strength and quality. Usually a bit of experimentation with positioning devices helps a great deal, but you may want to get your mini checked to ensure the antenna is correctly located and firmly connected.

  • Why does my phone say no sim card?  How do i fix?

    I dropped my phone and now it says No Sim in the upper left.  I cannot use the phone.  how do i fix?    

    This happened to me recently. I had to turn the phone on and off twice. I also had to press on the top of the frame of the phone where the sim card is. My issue actually happened when the phone had not been dropped. Good luck.

  • Verizon iPhone 4: does this phone have an INTERNAL GPS unit?

    I thought it would but when I drove into an area with no cell coverage my pre-installed MAPS did not work?! If the iPhone has an internal GPS should I not have map coverage anyway? My wife's Droid switches to internal gps.... Can anyone educate me on this?
    For good turn by turn is the Tom Tom ap for iPhone a good one?
    If the iPhone 4 verizon has an internal gps why does tom tom have a car kit for iPhone??????
    thank you!

    As a test I put my iPhone in Airplane mode and when I opened Maps I was instructed to turn off Airplane mode or use WiFi to show my location on the map. I pressed OK and got another message that my location is unable to be displayed on the map. I know data is used to download the map to show your current location and I guess without some type of data connection the Map app will not function.

  • Does apple iphones have a sims card?

    if i cannot transfer my sims card how can i transfer my pics and videos from my old samsung phone to my new apple iphone?

    At the store they can transfer pics.  U can buy an sd card adaptor for iPad and iPhone so u can put ur pics on without having to have them on any iPhone or ipad. Might be worth ur while.
    If ur computer has a sd card drive put ur sd card into ur computer then import ur pics put them into a file u know where it is. then plug ur iPhone in and it will give u a message saying ur iPhone is found. Go to iTunes click the name of ur iPhone then there should be a menu for photos click sync then there should be a way to pick the file where u put the photos. I would put all ur file on desktop so u know where it is. Then u should be fine. I did this from an iPhone to an iPhone but it should be the same process.

  • HT4061 why after downloading the new IOS does my phone have now need a passcode and it didn't before and I don't have one cause ive never used one

    I need to know ASAP because I don't really want to restore to factory settings

    Not sure if this applies to your region, but in Australia the SIM password is often written on the "credit card" sized plastic card that the SIM was provided to you with the phone by the telco. Do you still have this? It could be in the iPhone box?

  • Why does my phone have to vibrate twice when I plug in the charger

    I have had an iphone 5 for about a year now and I am very disappointed with Apple and will be changing to a different phone as soon as I can. The fact that apple makes the phone vibrate twice when I plug in a third party charger is obsurd. The apple charger is much worse and breaks sooner than the thrid party charger, but since apple want to make money they are forcing a notification that says this charger may not work properly (actually works better than apples charger) and causes the double vibrate.
    They also failed in reconizing a computer, as I have to verify that I trust my home computer everytime I plug it in, also causing a double vibrate. It can't remeber that it has been plugged into this computer many times?
    Very disapointed in apples ability to live up to the high end cost of their devices and I will definetly be switching to a different device (which has also made me decide to not buy other apple products)
    It would be nice if they would address this problem as it affects every iphone and is a huge negative to ergonomics and functionality of the product.

  • How good of condition does a phone have to be to trade in?

    I have a galaxy s4 mini and am ready to trade it in, but theres a couple of small chips on the side. Would they accept that?

    Hi there
    I’d be happy to help with your device trade-in!  For a device to be eligible for trade-in, it must be in good working and physical condition. This Good working condition is determined based on the following questions:
    Does the smartphone power on and off?
    Is the LCD intact, free of any chips or cracks, and functioning correctly?
    Is anything else on the smartphone broken or cracked? Including housing, keypad, hinge, or battery door?
    Is the battery missing?
    If in doubt, I would recommend bringing the device by your nearest AT&T company store where we can help identify anything which may cause the device to be ineligible for trade-in.
    I hope this helps!

  • Does my phone have to be connected to the internet for the find my iphone app to work?

    it claims on the apple website that you can see a satellite map and everything from your computer just as if you were using another iphone to try and find your own phone through the find my iphone app,i signed into icloud through my computer but it says it cant find my phone because its offline,im 98% sure the find my iphone app is activated on my phone right now,so does that mean my phone has to actually be connected to internet to be found because that would be stupid..

    Yes, The phone needs an active data connection, either through WiFi or Cellular data. 

  • How bad does your phone have to be to send it away and get a new one?

    My blackberry 8520 keeps on resetting itself and freezing all the time, does this mean that i can send it away and get a new one for free?

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    No one can say at an internet distance...only your specific qualified service center can say. Your contract is between you and either your wireless service provider or your authorized reseller...that contract will govern what could or could not be. You need to take it to your service provider for diagnosis and hopefully resolution.
    But, with what you've described, there are a whole host of diagnostic steps that could be attempted here, if you are willing.
    Good luck!

  • Acrobat 9 does not recognize the smart card reader that work with other app. Can someone help me?

    Hi to All,
    Acrobat 9 (included in CS4 design premium) does not recognize the smart card reader. I have a smart card reader ACR38 smart card that works with all applications except Acrobat 9 pro. I tried to uninstall and reinstall it again, but when I try to insert the digital signature message is always the same, that does not find the Acrobat reader. Can someone help me?

    Hi MartinR
    Thank you for your reply, i have tried what you suggest, and it did not work, the i DVD opening title changed but not the embedded movie.
    Perhaps it is a setting in Final Cut Express?
    After capturing my footage, i open a new project then i convert all clips to anamorphic, to give me the letterbox effect, i have tried now with and without anamorphic.
    In my canvas screen, the footage does not fill the square, even if i have not selected anamorphic, and fall well within the TV safe areas, but the only way to ill the canvas up is to crop it bigger, but still when i export it does not give me the full screen view.
    Any ideas?

  • Does Java Card 2 API support all the smart card?

    Does Java Card 2 API support all the smart card? I guess all the java cards are smart card but all the smart card are not java card. so Java card 2 API supports only java card. It does not support all the smart card. Please somebody let me know wheather I am correct or not. Because I want to make an application which supports all the smart card. I am confuse wheather I have to use JavaCard API or OCF or any other framework/API. Please help me. Thanks

    I am clear with java card.
    But I want to make an application which can verify the PIN inside card and read logon certificate, which is saved inside card. Is there any framework which I can use to full fill my simple requiremnt. I dont want to deal with any applet inside card.
