How to connect in public places?

Hi,
My iBook has a Apple Extreme Card, which I use mainly at home. However, when I go to public places, how to connect to internet?
Thks a lot.

Depends on the wireless hotspot you are at.
Usually from the Airport icon in the menu bar, select the hotspot name.
You will then to either
a) start surfing as this is an open free network
b) enter the password which you will need to get from the owner of the hotspot
c) open a browser (Safari) and log into the hotspot paying for it if required by credit card or pre-paid card

  • Why am I unable to connect to free Wi-Fi in public places?

    How come I am not able to use my iTouch wi-fi in places that offer free wi-fi? All I get is a little pop-up box that tells me that it cannot initialize wi-fi.
    I can use the wi-fi feature with my airport on my home computer, but that's it.
    I am a little disappointed that I cannot connect to any places (coffee shops, grocery stores, etc...) that offer free wi-fi....but wouldn't be surprised if it is something I am doing.
    I have my iTouch turned on to detect new networks, everything is updated, etc., too. Thanks

    Many "free" WiFi sites require that you accept their terms and conditions before you are granted full access. If you are running any of the 3.0 versions, this acceptance page usually pops up in a browser like window. If you are running 2.x you will have to go to Safari - usually refreshing whatever page opens up will bring up the access points terms and conditions page.

  • Connected to public wifi but still safari is not connected to internet

    can someone help me to my iphone, i dont have a router at home, so that i always go to mall to connect to wifi but when im connected ti it and open my safari still says that im not connect to internet. im reseting the settings but still it doesnt work.. how will i fix this..? i cannot us my ipod touch capabilty..
    Message was edited by: yajle

    Most public places require that you agree to their terms and conditions prior to allowing you full access. Next time you connect, tap Settings > WiFi > and then tap the blue ">" next to the network with a check mark. Tap Forget this Network.
    Then tap Settings > WiFi and let the touch find the network. Tap on the name to connect and then wait for 20-30 seconds. If the network requires you to agree to Terms and Conditions, a Safari-like page will open up that allows you to do that.

  • TS1398 How to connect to wireless with iPad Mini running iOS 6.x.x.

    Recently purchased iPad Mini which iOS 6.0.1 installed.  It would not connect to the Internet over wifi at my home.  I run two wifi networks in the house.  One uses a Linksys WRT120G router (SSID:wremlc) and one using a combo DSL Modem/Router from CenturyLink (SSID:centurylink).  iPad would not connect to either network.  (As an aside my iPhone 4s amd my wife's iPhone 4 have been connected to the Linksys network (prior to upgrade to iOS 6.0.1.  They still connect to the wremlc network but will not connect to the centurtlink network.)  The Linksys router has been updated to the latest firmware and it is running WPA/WPA-2 security with AES/TKIP encryption and automatic channelling.  After tinkering with the settings in the CenturyLink router and changing from automatic channling to Channel 6, I was able to the iPad mini but neither iPhone.  I am afraid to change it on the wremlc network for fear that my iPhone will no longer connect.  Took iPad back to Verizon Store and could not connect to any of their secure wifi networks.  I am able to connect to public unsecure wifi networks in places like McDonalds, Panera and Starbucks.  I am also able to connect to some private secure wifi networks at some of my firend's homes but not all. When I try, for example, at my in-laws house (they use a Linsys WRT120N router), it tries to join and I get a mesaage that says "Unable to join network "chandler".  Same for my iPhones and my daughters iPad.  I thought iOS 6.0.2 had fixed the wifi problems but clearly they have not.  Don't think its a Linksys problem as my iPhones connect just fine but that could because its a remembered network that was originally connected before iOS 6.0 came out.  Sorry for the epistle but any help would be appreciated.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • How to connect to Windows 2008 VPN server with certificate support

    Unfortunatelly if I select any Windows 2008 server compatible protocol (PPTP, L2TP) I cannot select PKI certificate, its only available for Cisco VPN. Yet my company has 1000 laptops and utilizing Windows 2008 Server for VPN (Cisco is too expensive and unnecessary because VPN is part of Windows Server). PKI certificate is required for connection security.
    Any plans to enable certificates for PPTP or L2TP in 2.1 firmware? Even better would be to add SSTP protocol with certificate support, because it takes only one standard TCP connection (https) per user (uses least possible NAT resources for heavy loaded NATed WiFi spots). Also in some public places https is the only option to connect as PPTP and L2TP are filtered.

  • Members only area of website and how to connect it to existing database

    I am trying to create a members login section on an existing website. We have a MS Access database of clients, and I need the website login creation to be able to look at our database and only let the person create an account, if they are on that list. 
    I've successfully completed a walkthrough/tutorial on creating a members only area of a website, but that allows anyone and everyone to create an account. I need a way to force that check before the new user account is allowed. Any help will ge greatly appreciated!

    Hi,
    According to your description, I think your issue is more about how to connect to Access database from your web site, instead of Access development.
    Which type of connection do you want to use? Is it ADO.NET?
    If so, I suggest you posting in ADO.NET Managed Providers
    forum for more effective responses.
    If not, you can choose a proper forum based on the type of the connection or your developing language.

Another thing is that I get an error thrown at me when I try to test the standalone SWF file, it only listens for connections when I hit "test movie" in the FLA... Thanks in advance...

  • How to connect to wifi prompt with Apple TV?

    To connect to wifi in public locations (e.g., Starbucks, hotels), you often have to click an "I agree" button after selecting the network.  For business presentations in hotels and other venues, I carry an Apple TV with me.  I connect the Apple TV to a big screen TV at the venue, then use my iPad to present content on the TV.  You will know that the Apple TV and the iPad have to be on the same wifi network in order for this to work.  But in locations that require an "I agree" in order to connect to the local wifi network, I do not know how to connect the Apple TV to the wifi network.  Is there a way to see/accept the "I agree" button when connecting the Apple TV to the network?

    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.

  • How to connect to oracle ebs from an external software

    Hi!
    I want to develop an integration for oracle EBS. Therefor I'm looking for ways how to connect to the EBS and for a repository of functions which can be called from an external program. I'm not quite sure if this is the right place to ask but I could not find anything yet so I'm trying here.
    Are there any standard connectors for the EBS provided by Oracle?
    Thanks,

    Oracle Applications Architecture is a framework for multi-tiered, distributed computing that supports Oracle Applications products. In this model, various servers are distributed among multiple levels/tiers as follows:
    - The Desktop Tier --> Web browser with Jinitiator or Sun JRE
    - The Application Tier --> Web, Forms, Reports, Admin, and Concurrent servers
    - The Database Tier --> Oracle Enterprise Edition Database
    The Application tier is the layer which is responsible for:
    - Hosting the various servers that process the business logic
    - Managing communication between the desktop tier and the database tier
    So, in order to connect to the database, you can either access the application tier, or connect directly to the database. I do not think it is possible to communicate with the application services from some other application. Therefore, you would need to connect to the database directly which can be achieved as explained in my previous reply. There is no such API which can be used to open/close a database connection. Oracle E-Business Suite is just a database with number of schemas and objects which are tightly integrated.
    More details about Oracle E-Business Architecture can be found in:

  • How to connect one database in two threads?

    Dear All,
    If anyone can tell me how to connect one database concurrently?
    I tried the following idea:
    1.create a Hashtable to keep database objects(those databases have been opened)
    2.Before openning(connecting) a database:first step is to check the hashtable.
    If the the database object is in the hashtable, this object will be returned.
    If the datatbase object is not in the hastable, open the database and store this opened database object into the hashtable.
    I failed the test of this implementation. My test is:Create two threads (extend java Thread class).In each of these two threads, try to open the same database.Just like the following:
    MyThread thread1 = new MyThread();
    MyThread thread2 = new MyThread();
    thread1.start();
    thread2.start();
    I guessed the database object in the hashtable would be returned in the second thread.Unfortunatly, I only got an exception which meant the database couldn't be opened twice.It looks like the second thread happened before the opened database object stored into the hashtable.
    I cannot figure out if my design is wrong or my test application is wrong.
    I really appriatiate your attentions!!!

    um not sure i follow exactly but in your code add the word synchronise to it and this means only 1 tread can access it at any 1 time.
    So your could have a class which is a singleton so it only opens the dbase once and then all other access share your connection.
    so
    public class foo{
    foo INSTANCE = new foo();
    private foo(){} //private constructor
    then all your methods use foo's internal dbase connection. Am i making sense

  • Macbook pro wifi security won't let me connect to public/login networks

    I recently purchased a new Macbook Pro retina switching from Windows to Mac. One very frustrating thing I have found is that I am unable to connect to public wifi spots such as AT&T in Barnes and Noble. I read that a security udpate requires that the mac "phone" an Ip address at apple.com to inquire about the hotspot certificate in order to determine its legitimacy. The problem is I can't gain network access until I agree to the login/authentication page for the public network. Does anyone know a work around/way to connect to these public wifi spots? I get that security is important but it is very annoying not to be able to use wifi in places like Barnes and Nobles and Starbucks.
