HT201304 How safe is Internet on ipad2?

How secure is ipad2 for Internet surfing, do I need Norton or similar?

The iPad iOS is built on top of UNIX, a very secure system. There is no way anything could 'infect' the iPad - it's all locked down. You'll be safe =)

How do I get my iPad2 to connect to TV using AirPlay?

How do I get my iPad2 to connect to TV using AirPlay?

Thanks for your helpful response. I do have an Apple TV device that is hooked up to my TV & router and is working OK. I can link to iTunes on my main computer and stream photos etc OK. The Apple TV device also links to internet OK.
What I can't get to Apple TV device to do is link to my IPad2. I followed the instructions on using & setting up Airplay, and found the Airplay symbol OK,. When I tap it it shows my iPad & Apple TV. When I tap on the TV symbol it doesn't show the dialogue box indicated. I can't seem to get the iPad to stream from Photos, and the iPad doesn't show up on the TV under Computers.
Clearly I am doing something wrong, but what?
Any ideas?

How do I update my ipad2 to ios6?

How do I update my ipad2 to iOS 7?

You can't update to iOS6. Your iPad will be updated to the latest OS, which is 7.0.4
If you have iOS4 on your device like your post says, then you should connect it to its syncing computer. Update iTUnes. Do a full backup then follow the prompts in iTunes to download and install the new OS.
Depending on your internet speed could take you an hour or so to do it.

How secure is Internet shopping with ipad mini

How secure is Internet shopping with ipad mini

Same as any other iPad or iPhone.
There has been no malware that I have heard of on the iPad.
I would say it is very safe. I buy on the inernet all the time.
Optional: for a minor improvement in security, change your DNS server to Google
You could change your DNS server to Googles. I use Google.
Google provides free dns lookup. Their numbers are:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

How make my internet open/start immediately when turn on computer?

How make my internet open/start immediately when turn on computer?
ps: using FFox, if it makes any difference.
Don't think I wont't thank you, Cuz
I will.

Thank you verry much, HipHop.
FFox has long been on my doc.
I clicked it and it shows i have instructed it to 'Open at Login'.
Same thing with Apple/Prefs/Accounts/Login items where it shows i have instructed it, and also Safari now, to Open at Login (and not checked to Hide).
But still it never opens.
Safari opens at login. But not Firefox.
And it's not that the 2 are conflicting, cuz
I had this problem with FFox long time when started this question;
and I only just the other day added Safari to open at login cuz I was advised to try it just to see if Saf wd open on Login.
I did contact my isp, dslextreme, but they couldn't help me other than the advice I've already gotten here, said not their specialty, that I should ask Apple or FFox (I'll try that).
Thanks again, everybody.
I still dream of what I will do with all the time I will save someday by not having to actually click on the FFox icon to start it. Call me a dreamer, but I'm not the only one (or am i?)
ps: Are you really hip hop?

How safe IS Safari exactly?

Okay, well I was doing the common application this weekend. It asks you for your Social Security number, and I entered it without thinking twice... However I remembered a post on Macrumours about how Phishing was common among Mac users because we used Safari, so I just got hit by an attack of paranoia. Though I still don't really understand exactly why the social Security number is so important, I do understand that it is.
Is there any chance that my number could have been stolen? D=
I don't really think that entering the number on the college application is the same as entering credit card information, but I AM really afraid of identity theft... What do you guys think? =(
Is there anything I should do? Any way I can find out if I have some sort of spyware that could have done this?

How safe IS Safari exactly?
No browser in existence can prevent a user from voluntarily entering private information online. I believe people have an unreasonable expectation of what a browser can and cannot do in terms of protecting their privacy. Where phishing scams are concerned all a browser can do is warn the user that a particular site is questionable based on some database (Safari apparently uses Google's anti-phishing database).
And you heard wrong, very wrong. Phishing is NOT anymore common using Safari than any other browser. The people posting this tripe have personal agendas. Contrary to belief if you read something on the internet it is not necessarily or even commonly true.

How to set Internet limits to particular user by gpo ?

How to set Internet limits to particular user by gpo ?
Thanks & Regards, Amol . Amol Dhaygude

Hi,
>>How to set Internet limits to particular user by gpo ?
What Internet limits do you want to set for specific users? Group Policy user settings can be configured to apply to specific users, like via security filtering or GPP item-level targeting. The path for Internet Explorer policy settings under User Configuration
is: User Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer.
You can also use GPP Internet Settings extension to manage IE settings and use GPP ILT to apply the settings to specific users. However, GPP settings can be edited by standard users after getting applied.
Regarding GPP Internet Settings extension, the following article can be referred to for more information.

How to disconnect internet connection in Time Capsule and reconnect without restarting the whole device?

Hi, I would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to disconnect internet connection in Time Capsule and reconnect without restarting the whole device?
The thing is that as I have a dynamic IP address, everytime I restart the internet connection my IP address changes. I sometimes need it to change, so I need to restart the connection. I don't know another way to restart the connection than restarting the whole Time Capsule.
Thanks!!
PD: the computer I use is Windows based, using the Airport Utility for Windows, but I also have a MacBook Pro I could use and an iPhone too.

The utility in windows is very like Mac so the screenshots are from Mac as I don't have windows available now.
How this works depends on the setup of the TC.. which you did not tell us.. you cannot change anything if you do not have the TC as the main router in the network.
So on the internet tab you need to share a public IP address.
On the next tab where you set IP address.
Click the renew IP address.
It might work.. and it might not.. the problem is you are not disconnecting the network.. sometimes the hard disconnection is required before the address will renew..
What about unplugging the WAN port.. then click renew the IP which will fail.. then plug the wan back in again.
In the end it is easier and faster to power cycle the TC.

Reg: How to Configure internet for solaris 10 in x86 32 bit

Hi,
I am new to Sun Solaris can any one help me detailed step of how to configure internet for standalone pc. Thanks in Advance
Thanx
MA

OK, the classical way:
Open a terminal.
Type
ifconfig -a
ifconfig -a plumb
ifconfig -a
Note the differences, it will plumb ALL available interfaces this way. So, now you can see, which device is your network card.
Then perform a
ifconfig <interface> unplumb
for all the newly interfaces (aka those, that were new in the last ifconfig -a output).
Then, the simple way:
cd /etc
vi hostname.<interface-driver-name>0 (example: hostname.rge0, the driver would be rge, the instance is 0, and rge0 would have been displayed as an available interface in the last ifconfig command). Add the name of the host into this file.
Then
vi /etc/inet/hosts
and add the pair of IP-address and hostname.
If needed:
vi /etc/inet/netmasks
if you have a sub-divided network, and you need a differenbt subnet mask...
Then:
vi /etc/defaultrouter
and add the name or ip-adress of the gateway... (name only, if you have that name also in the /etc/inet/hosts file!)
Also:
vi /etc/nodename
and add the name of your host into that file, so that the system knows, who it is... ;-)
And: For the DNS you can then add the infos into:
/etc/resolv.conf
For example:
nameserver 192.168.2.1
or some such...
Then, as the last but one step:
ls /etc/nsswitch.*
and:
cd /etc
cp nsswitch.<what you need> nsswitch.conf (should be .files here!)
And the reboot... ;-)
HTH!
Matthias
P.S.: There might be some GUI, but I'm an old-timer, so I prefer the command-line version of things...

How to stop Internet Explorer upgrade to IE 10 & IE 11

Dear All,
How to stop Internet Explorer upgrade to IE 10 & IE 11
In our environment we have around 300 workstations.I need to stop all of the machine users from manually downloading and installing IE.Also how do it stop the IE from updating using Group policy on windows server 2008 & windows server 2003.
All users machine are on windows 7.
Basically i want all users to get restricted to IE9.
Thanks ..
Mike...
Regards, Mike ||Persistent Work Triumphs||

Hi Mike,
>>Basically i want all users to get restricted to IE9.
Internet Explorer 10 will be available as an “Important” update through the Automatic Update feature of Windows Update. Users of Windows 7 Service Pack 1, who have opted to
download and install updates automatically through Windows Update (recommended setting), will automatically be upgraded to Internet Explorer 10.
However, we can prevent users from upgrading to IE 10 via Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) or System Center 2012 Configuration Manager.
Regarding how to prevent users from upgrading to IE10 or IE11, the following two articles can be referred to for more information.
Internet Explorer 10 Delivery through Automatic Updates
