How can I keep my corporate security department from wiping my devices with a service like good technology?

I want to run corporate stuff on my ios devices. Right now they use Good Technology. They may be adding microsoft OWA and Lync apps. They tell me they could wipe my device with Good (not that they would do that without my approval). I am not sure what their capabilities could be with Microsoft stuff. Can I keep them from doing this? Or is that controlled by the app and if I want their version of the app I have to say ok to the wipe? I don't think they want to go around wiping ios devices. I am more worried about random screw ups (Oops, we didn't mean to do that!) on their part. Where can I go to understand the security model for ios better?
Thanks.

If your company requires that you register your iPad with their MDM system or they use Microsoft Exhange for their email and calendaring system, then they can enforce the ability to wipe your device and there's no way you can prevent it other than to not participate and forgo whatever benefits using their systems might bring.

    How can I keep my RAW photo files from converting to JPEG???

    Hello briggiebunny
    If iTunes can read the movie files, then you will need to create an iPad version by going to the drop down menu File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version and then syncing that newly created file.
    iTunes: Videos may be unable to sync to iPhone, iPad, or iPod

  • How can I keep the formatting when converting from Word to pages?

    How can I keep the formatting when converting from Word to pages?

    Use only formatting that is supported (in the same manner) in both applications. You'll need to find which that is through trial and error. Beyond those formatting options, you'll need to do some corrections, as Fruhulda suggests.

  • How can I keep photos on iPod Touch from looking like color negatives?

    How can I keep photos on iPod Touch from looking like color negatives?

    You don't have to keep your photos in iPhoto to sync to your iPod according to Apple's website which states you can sync from folders in other locations:
    "Syncing Photos from a Mac
    To sync photos from iPhoto or a folder on your Mac:
    1. Connect your iPod to your computer and open iTunes.
    2. Select your iPod in the DEVICES section of the iTunes Source list.
    3. In the main iTunes browser window, select the Photos tab.
    4. Select the checkbox labeled "Sync photos from" and then choose either iPhoto, Aperture, Choose Folder, or Pictures, from the menu.
    * If you choose iPhoto, select "All photos and albums" to copy all of your photos in iPhoto, or "Selected albums only" and select individual rolls or albums you want to include.
    * If you choose Choose Folder, navigate to and select the folder of photos you want, then click Choose. Select "All photos" to copy all photos in the folder, or choose "Selected folders" to sync particular subfolders.
    * If you choose Pictures, choose "All photos" to copy all photos in the folder, or choose "Selected folders" to sync particular subfolders.
    5. If you want iTunes to also include the full-resolution versions of your photos, select the "Include full-resolution photos" checkbox. To access full-size photo files, be sure to enable your iPod for disk use.)
    6. Once you have decided which photos you'd like to sync, click Apply."
    Hope this helps!

    I'm not sure I understand what you are asking, but on the device/Settings, do you have iCloud and Photos sync turned on?

  • How can I access my home security DVR from the internet?

    My Time Capsule (as a router and not a bridge) blocks me from accessing my home security DVR from the internet.  I can access it from other computers connected to my LAN but not from the internet.  I guess it's a firewall setting issue.  I can't add the home security application to the list of firewall allowed incoming connections since it's a Windows app that I cannot install on my Mac.  On the other hand, the app is installed on my old PC but I can't access the Mac firwall settings from the PC and add the security app (If that's the problem).
    My DVR is connected to a Netgear switch which is connected to the Time Capsule which is connected to a Cisco modem provided by Comcast. I thought one of the modem ports had to be opened by Comcast. That was not the issue.  After spending 2 hours on the phone with Comcast going in circles talking to 10 different overseas agents, they concluded the Netgear switch was blocking me from accessing the DVR.  I think they are wrong and that it's a Mac firewall problem.  HELP!!!  Does anyone know what could be the problem and how to solve it?

    Did you forward the required ports in the TIme Capsule? If not it won't work.. it has nothing to do with firewall unless the DVR is plugged into the Mac. If it is plugged into a switch you need to lock the IP of the DVR and find out what ports are required.. usually just port 80, ie html.. but it could be some others.
    Since Apple do not use upnp to open ports.. the TC will have to manually be provided with the ports.. Apple use PMP-NAT that is not used by the rest of the known world.. Just to ensure you stay in the camp.

  • How can I keep my iPhone 4 Mail from freezing & losing drafts?

    I often send email from my iPhone (4 with iOS 5.0.1) only to find that the phone doesn't have a connection.
    Often once it has a connection again, the mail program will never load -- instead freezing, the "load wheel" forever circling, "Checking for Mail..."
    This is a big problem for the email I "sent" -- because without a connection it didn't save to the Outbox.
    I have tried to solve it by saving my outgoing emails as drafts, but they don't save as drafts without a connection!? Why should the device require a connection to save a draft??
    It's actually very similar to a problem I used to have with my iPhone 2's mail program. I searched for this topic before posting and I found other users had the previous problem too, in 2008: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1611568?start=0&tstart=0
    Help?
    Thanks in advance.

  • How can I share my a public calendar from iCal (through iCloud) with Outlook for Windows users?

    I have a public work calendar that I wish to share with colleagues in the office. No issues for those having a Mac or an iPhone, but how can I share the calendar with Outlook for Windows users?
    Thanks for the help!

    Hello ramirofromstrockholm,
    The steps detailed below explain how to go about publicly share a calendar (which doesn't require that one be an iCloud user to accept).
    Click the Share button to the right of the calendar you want to share, then select Public Calendar.
    Note:   You can also share the same calendar privately. For instructions, see the previous task, “Share a calendar privately.”
    To invite people to view the calendar, click Email Link.
    Type one or more email addresses in the To field, then click Send.
    The people you specify automatically receive an invitation email that includes the calendar’s URL. An invitee doesn’t need to be an iCloud user to accept an invitation to view a shared public calendar.
    In the sidebar, a shared calendar has a dark Share button.
    You can also resend invitations to one or more invited participants at any time.

  • How can i keep one email box separate from all the others....?

    I have 4-5 personal email accounts. Mail gets them all, and it works as i want it - with ALL my inboxes and sent mail aggregated.
    However, i now want to add my business exchange account. I want this totally separate - not mixed in with personal.
    Ideally i'd like to run two instances of mail - is that possible?
    If not, i'd like a completely separate set of mailboxes (in, sent, drafts, etc) for exchange mail.
    Can thsi be done? How?
    thanks.
    Grant

    At some point i just sigh and continue to use OAW, bad as it is.
    What is the problem with the suggestion I gave you?
    IO rally want to figure out a way to trick the system into letting me run two instances, or keeping the two accounts independent.
    Even if you could trick the system into running two copies of Mail, what do you think that would accomplish? They would both try to access the same Mail settings and data files. If the workarounds posted here aren't sufficient, you will just have to use a different mail client.

    LOL, that's like saying it's a shame you can't walk into a restaurant and order a plate of dog poo...

  • How can I keep my ipad3 screen brightness from fading while I am reading?

    I notice that as I am reading on iPad 3 the screen brightness fades every couple of minutes. Is there a way I can keep this from happening?

    Go to Settings > Brightness Wallpaper
    If you Auto turned on, turn it off.  With it off, your screen should maintain the brightness level you set it to, without variation.

  • How can I keep this location sharing popup from appearing?

    I want it to STOP asking me! The instructions on how to remove it are not helpful : /

    If you never want Firefox to share your location with any websites, there are two ways to set that. You can use whichever one seems easier.
    '''Permissions page'''
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' in the address bar and press Enter.
    (2) On the right side, the heading should be '''Default Permissions for All Sites'''. If it doesn't say that, on the left side, click All Sites (which should appear below the box that says ''Search Sites'').
    (3) Under '''Share Location''' change the drop-down from "Always Ask"
    to "Block"
    That's it, you can close this tab.
    '''Configuration Editor'''
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''geo''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''geo.enabled''' preference to switch it from true to false. It should turn bold.
    That's it, you can close this tab.
    If Firefox forgets this change the next time you start it up, check out this article for possible reasons: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
    Edit: fixed typo in geo.enabled

  • How can I keep an iPod 1st Generation from shutting completely off when I leave it for more than 1 minute?

    Well, my friend and I just received this 1st generation iPod Touch from a man at our church. He said we could sell it. However, it has some problems. For example, when I leave it alone, it cuts off completely, Then, I have to hold the home and power button for about ten seconds so the Apple symbol will come on the screen and I then know that it is coming on. Can someone help me with the problem?

    You should connect it to a computer running iTunes, and do a Restore.

  • How can I keep my Cap 7 file from sending a 0 score to LMS?

    I have a Captivate 7 file for a training program.  The file includes some question slides for knowledge check/review purposes - however, we don't want the file to send a score (not even a 0 score) to our LMS.  We only want the LMS to reflect whether the user completed the course file or not.  So in each question slide, I set Quiz Properties to show 0 points 0 penalty and de-selected the Report Answers box.  I then set the Publish Settings to these (shots below) to prevent any score from being passed through - however, the file is still passing a 0 score to the LMS.
    So I tried just removing the question slides altogether and replacing them with regular slides that I programmed to mimic question slide functionality, but that didn't work either.  I was told to check all buttons/click boxes to ensure that none of them was producing any type of "report" to LMS, but none of them are set to report anything.  Can anyone spot what I'm doing wrong?  Will very much appreciate any advice anyone can give!  Thanks!
