Help with Location Services.

Just got an iPad (MD510LL) The device can't determine my location, on any app. Everything that is suppose to be on, is set. I even went as far as reseting all settings and still no cigar. I have access to the internet and I have no issues in that department. I am using an air card with Verizon.

You say you have a screenshot.... could you upload it please?

- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

Performance Issues with Location Services

I am having performance lag issues with most apps with location services turned on. This is a new issue that has crept up after update to iOS 4.2.1. Apps get slow and upon exiting the location service is still active as indicated by arrow icon in top right of screen. Any recommendation short of killing all location services? Note this even occurs in apple apps such as photos.

Have you tried basics from the manual?
restart.
reset.
restore.

Anyone else having issues with location services since the 7.1 update? Ever since I updated i've been seeing the location services on my status bar at all times.

Anyone else having issues with location services since the 7.1 update? Ever since I updated i’ve been seeing the location services icon on my status bar at all times. I noticed that google was the app that was using it a lot, but after I turned the feature off for google my phone started using the “traffic”, “frequent locations” and “cell network search”. When I turn the feature off for all of those things it’s no longer a problem. So just wondering if anyone else is having this issue or if anyone has a solution?

The "solution" is probably to increase your knowledge. You've done good things. Perhaps this article will educate you a bit more about location services.
Basically, they can be very useful, but can cause a lot of iPhone use. A major example is "Remind me to ... when I leave home."

I received this error today "unable to communicate with locator service to retrieve available files"

We use CSM to push out IPS updates and we recieved this error when we tried to manually retrieve the IPS update from Cisco.com. I wonder if the CCO server is having issues again because this happened last month when it rejected requests for updates. We did recieve the same error "Unable to communicate with locator service to retrieve files." at that time as well. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

This error is usually due to problems with the CCO server. Are you able to ping www.cisco.com from the CSM server? What ip address does ww.cisco.com resolve to? The problem could be a transient issue so do you get the same error if you try the IPS update again?

Lets run down a list of possibilities:
1) You are using iTunes 6 here, correct?
2) You did not say whether or not you are running in auto-sync, manual management, or "Enable Disk" mode. If you left it in the default mode as installed (auto-sync), then after dropping your movies into iTunes (or adding them to the Library), simply connect your iPod and allow it to auto-sync (mirror) the current contents of iTunes. (You can also try "Update iPod" option under the File menu, but I have found it unreliable -- possibly owing to "sleeping" iPod.)
3) Not sure if your reference to "dropping the movie on the iPod" is a reference to the iPod desk icon in manua/disk enabled mode or the iPod "Source" reference/associaed contents list in iTunes. Could you clarify where you are attempting to "drag 'n drop" and/or the selected sync mode of operation in your iPod Preferences.
4) As to conversion to iPod compatible formats, recommend you stick with MoviesForMyPod and/or iSquint if you are restricted to QT Pro 6 and not sure what settings to use for MPEG4 preset collection/QuickTime Movie full manual mode.

Possible fix for problems with Location Services!!!!

Alright, I had just bought a brand new iPod Touch 5th Generation and was having trouble with any app that used Location services (Siri, Weather, Maps, etc) and it was driving me absolutely crazy. Now, I live in a very VERY rural area in Pennsylvania (basically the middle of nowhere) and my new iTouch kept saying "cannot determine location" no matter what app I was using that utilized Location Services. After 4-5 days straight of searching various websites looking for help (including this one), I came up completely empty handed and had pretty much given up on getting it to work correctly. Somewhere along the line, I found out about Skyhook Wireless and the process for adding my wireless network to their database. I thought to myself "What the heck? It can't hurt to at least try..." even after reading on multiple websites that Apple no longer works with Skyhook. So I gave it a shot,..
I went to the following website: http://skyhookwireless.com/howitworks/submit_ap.php
I entered my address into the first empty text field and then clicked the "MAP IT" button.
It deteremined where I was (pretty darn accurately if I say so myself) so I moved on and entered my Wireless Router's MAC Address in the corresponding field.
Then I entered my email address in the corresponding field, completed the CAPTCHA, and hit "SUBMIT".
I received an email a few moments later from Skyhook letting me know they had successfully received my submission and then I sat back for a few moments, crossing my fingers and hoping for the sake of my sanity that it had worked.
After about an hour or so, I tried to get my local weather using the Weather app that comes pre-installed on iOS. Still, it couldn't find my current location. the Maps app gave me the same result.
I sat here planning my next course of action and came up with...you guessed it....nothing!
I said screw it and went about my business for the day. A few days went by and I was visiting a very good friend of mine and I had my iTouch with me. Now my friend lives even further in the sticks than I do but for some unknown and shocking reason, my location services worked PERFECT at their house (every single app I tried that in one way or another used Location Services, it worked every time) so I asked my friend if it would be alright with them to go grab my wireless router and switch with them for a day or two, just as a last ditch effort for the sake of science and my own sanity. They said it wouldn't be a problem at all. So we traded wireless routers for a day or two.
Upon hooking their router up at my house and using the Weather & Maps apps, it still showed up that I was still at their house and showed the local weather for the town that was nearest to them. I was like "Hey, it's better than nothing!" so I left it go for a day or two.
Upon arriving at my friends house to grab my original router and give them back their original router, I checked my iTouch and, lo & behold, it showed my home as my current location and the correct local weather for the city/town closest to my home address, even though I was at their house. I felt so dumbfounded and almost cried because I had actually gotten it to work. I unhooked my original router, hooked my friend's back up, and it showed up that I was exactly where I was supposed to be - at my friend's house.
I brought my original router back to my house, hooked it up and Cha-CHING! It WORKED!!!!! It showed that I was at my house and showed the correct local weather.
And there you have it, How I was able to solve my location services woes.
I'm not saying it will help out everybody else's location service problems but it is worth a shot, it worked for me.
If this DOES help anyone else out, please reply so as to confirm that it wasn't just me that it works for.

Thank you @sberman for a fast replay, I read the article, but still it doesn't explain why it doesn't show at least that I'm in Europe,while my android phone,having set just wifi as location reference, shows my position at 1km accurately(I don't live in a city,that's why such a big radius) in Google Maps.I also saw the time zone, if I set it automatically,detection through wifi doesn't work, it just keeps refreshing.

Can't turn on reminder at a location with location services restriction.

I think I may have found a bug, or at least unintended functionality.
I have an iPhone 4s with iOS 5. When I turn on location restrictions (Settings > General > Restrictions > Location > Don't Allow Changes -- note that in this list Reminders is set to ON, which means that location services is ENABLED for this app), then create a new reminder in the reminders app, then try to have it remind me at a location, the "At a Location" switch is disabled, not allowing me to create a reminder with a geofence alert.
When I change the setting to "Allow Changes", the "At a location" switch in Reminders is re-enabled.
Interesting thing is that it works just fine if I create a reminder at a location using Siri.
I'd like to be able to keep the "Don't Allow Changes" restriction on as, if my phone is stolen, I don't want people to be able to turn off location services, thus blocking Find My iPhone.
Anyone else can reproduce/confirmt hat this is a bug?

Hate to burst your bubble here, but all a thief has to do is turn your phone off to defeat "Find My Phone". This is common knowledge. Once turned off, a quick restore in iTunes & then listed on eBay or Graigslist.

Please help with web services (JSR 172)

Hello!
I'm in need of some help. I've only worked with web services some few weeks. I have two web services that I want to access from J2ME.
Both works nice in regular Java (J2SE). I use axis so with the help of WSDL2Java I got a working client.
One of them has four operations
    public boolean tryToLoginUser( String username, String password ) {}
    public boolean tryToLogOffUser( String username, String password ){}
    public boolean createUserAccount( String username, String password ){ }
    public boolean removeUserAccount( String username, String password ){ } The problem is when I want to use Sun's Wireless Toolkit 2.2 and create stubs that way with the Stub Generator. It complains with this
warning: Operation tryToLoginUser is of the wrong encoding SOAP style/use (rpc/encoded). Document/literal only. Skipping generation of operation.
warning: Operation tryToLogOffUser is of the wrong encoding SOAP style/use (rpc/encoded). Document/literal only. Skipping generation of operation.
warning: Operation createUserAccount is of the wrong encoding SOAP style/use (rpc/encoded). Document/literal only. Skipping generation of operation.
warning: Operation removeUserAccount is of the wrong encoding SOAP style/use (rpc/encoded). Document/literal only. Skipping generation of operation.What I can tell is I need to put this in my axis deployment descriptor
<service name="UserWebService" provider="java:RPC" style="document" use="literal">instead of this:
<service name="UserWebService" provider="java:RPC">This wont work. It don't work with HTTP GET I get this error

warning: Port "UserWebService" does not contain any usable operationsDoes this mean I can only use one parameter for input in an operation when I use style="document" use="literal" ??
I understood it that way, so I created a new web service that takes username and password in one String.
The new web service has four operations
    public boolean tryToLoginUser( String usernameAndPassword ) {}
    public boolean tryToLogOffUser( String usernameAndPassword ){}
    public boolean createUserAccount( String usernameAndPassword ){ }
    public boolean removeUserAccount( String usernameAndPassword ){ }The problem is that I get this error when running HTTP GET.

</soapenv:Envelope>If I get a WSDL2Java client it works (!) if I manually changes the parameter names. I have four operations which all takes
String usernameAndPassword
in one String since I can only use one parameter with style="document" use="literal"
The WSDL2Java automatically set the parameter names to
usernameAndPassword
usernameAndPassword1
usernameAndPassword2
usernameAndPassword3
for the different operations. If I manually changes them to all have the name
usernameAndPassword
it works. Why doesn�t it work without manual changes? I haven�t tested the code from Sun�s Wireless Toolkit 2.2 Stub Generator yet, but that at least doesn�t give any errors .
My other web service doesn�t work either if I set style="document" use="literal".
This web service returns my own classes I have written. It works as I said previously in J2SE with WSDL2Java, but not with style="document" use="literal�. When I set this my byte[] which is returned is null when using the client from WSDL2Java, this wasn�t the case without style="document" use="literal�.
I also get an error in Sun�s Wireless Toolkit 2.2 that byte[] is not recoigniced. This wasn�t the case with axis WSDL2Java.

</deployment>axis WSDL2Java won�t work anymore. And Sun�s Wireless Toolkit doesn�t work either with this. How can I get this to work with Sun�s Wireless Toolkit 2.2?
So my questions are:
Do I really need style=�document� use=�literal� for J2ME?
Can I only have one parameter as input when I use style=�document� use=�literal� ?
Why do I need to manally change the parameter names?
How can I make Sun�s Wireless Toolkit 2.2 understand byte[] ?
Many thanks for help :) (I have to present a solution in 1 � week to my J2ME teacher L).

hi,
i was wandering if you manage to successfully generate the stubs through the wireless toolkit at the end? i am currently having similar problem (i.e., trying to generate stub files based on wsdl from axis)? it seems that the WTK can only handle document/literal format, and so i change the wsdl to that. however, now it complains that it can't handle more than one input part in the message, (which is similar to the problem you had). so did you manage to find a solution to that, or J2ME simply does not support more than one arguement as the input?
thanks in advance,
lee

Problem with Location Services in Flight Mode

Hi!
Several times before it happened, that the Location Services symbol appeared in the status bar during Flight Mode and only disappeared several minutes after leaving Flight Mode. Up til now this never posed a problem as I usually plug in my Z10 over night.
Yesterday before going to bed I had 30% left and thought, that this would be sufficient to survive the night and that i'll plug it in in the office. Alas, I was woken up at arround 6am by my phone turning itself off.
When I looked at the Device Manager i found something quiet startling: During the whole time Flight Mode was active (approx. 23:00 - 0600), Location Services where active as well, draining the remaining 30% of battery. (See pictures)
My Device is a Z10STL100-3, OS is 10.2.1.3175.
No App was running nor was an Active Frame open.
Does anyone have a clue, why this happened or what caused this? Anyone with similar experiences?
And more important: how can i fix this?
Kind regards,
Uwe

Help with locating videocard on G4 900MHz Quicksilver

Hi all,
I'm trying to help a family member who lives far, far away, and is trying to add a monitor to her G4 900 MHz Quicksilver, OS 10.2.something. Can someone please tell me where that info is stored on OS10.2?
I got her to go to the System Profiler, but could not help her find anything on 'display' or 'graphics/displays'. I work on one of the new iMacs, with the intel processor and 10.4, and so can't help her locate this info.
Any help is muuch appreciated.
Thanks,
Sheila

Are you trying to add a second monitor and connect it to an existing video card or are you wanting to add a second video card to run another monitor?
We're trying to add a second monitor - or possibly a small tv screen - to the G4. I've been on the apple discussion boards, and feel a little comfy asking questions, but I know nothing about using a second monitor. The few discussions I've read here ask the basic question of what kind of video card does the mac have - which I have not been able to answer since I am not yet physically near the computer. So I've tried to walk my partner through on the telephone, to no avail.
According to the link you provided, this G4 has an NVIDIA GeForce4 MX card. If you can point me in the direction that explains what else I might need to hook up either a non-flat screen monitor (so that colors in film editing don't look like crap on tv) or a small tv, I'd be most grateful. If not, I'll keep looking.
Thanks.

Using FIND MY IPHONE to help with locating MH370 casualties?

OK this may seem really silly (ok it definitely is) OR has already been done or not I don't know I just thought it was a pretty decent, simple idea that may or may not be of any help with the missing plane/people of the MH370. Icloud's Find My Iphone app has been of great use to me in tracking my phone, I'm sure it could be used in someway to see if they could locate the last known surroundings of any of the passengers. I'm a little obsessed with the whole story and my heart goes out to everyone involved in it but does anyone think this could work?

Only if the phone is switched on and connected to a network. Hard to imagine how this can happen if (a) the plane is under water or (b) has crashed/crash landed in a remote place such as a jungle or desert or mountains (c) if crashed likelihood is small items such as an iphone may well have been smashed/destroyed.
There's also the possibility the plane itself has some electronic device such as a transponder which would help in locating it. In all likelihood this too may have been destroyed.
You could have thought of this yourself prior to posting.

Need help with locating iPad with find my iPad app.. it was turned on this morning but won't show me the location.. why is this??

Need help to find location of iPad using find my iPad app.. Sound was activated this morning but it won't give me the location.. How can I find it??

Hello there Kylie,
It sounds like your iPad is not showing in Find my iPad when you check it. Take a look at this info from the following article named:
iCloud: Troubleshooting Find My iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4006
Device does not appear in Find My iPhone
This can occur if:
The date on your device (iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch) is incorrect. Choose Settings > General > Date & Time to check and set the date.
Your device is not up-to-date. It needs to be running iOS 5 or later.
Your iCloud account is not configured on your device. Choose Settings > iCloud and enter your iCloud account information.
You have multiple iCloud accounts entered on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Only one account can have Find My iPhone turned on at a given time. Log in to Find My iPhone with your other iCloud accounts until your device is listed.
There's a scheduled maintenance or another issue affecting Find My iPhone. Check the System Status site to see if this is the case.
Your device has lost network connectivity. If you have access to your device, and it appears to have an active Internet connection, enable and then disable Airplane mode. If you continue to have issues, turn the device off and back on.
Find My Mac can only locate your Mac if it is connected to the Internet via a known Wi-Fi network. If your Mac is connected to the Internet only by an Ethernet cable, Find My Mac will not be able to locate your Mac.
Device appears in Find My iPhone, but is offlineThis can occur if:
Your device is powered off, such as when the battery has run out. Note that the remaining battery for the device, if it's connected to the Internet, displays in the upper-right corner of the information pane of the selected device. You can still play a sound on, send a message to, issue a lock request, or initiate an erase of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. The command will be received after the device is turned on and regains its Internet connection.
Your iPhone’s cellular service has been terminated by your wireless service provider. If you contacted your service provider to report your device lost or stolen before locating your phone, and they deactivated your SIM card or account, this would be expected. If this is the case, you may no longer be able to locate, display a message on, or erase your iPhone. For more information, read about what to do if your device is lost or stolen.
Your iPad, iPod Touch, or Mac is asleep and not connected to a known Wi-Fi network. You will still be able to request an erase, send a message to display and lock your device, or request that a sound be played. The command will be processed when your device is awakened and connected to the Internet.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling
