IPads not being recognized when using apple configurator software

I have an iPad cart with 25 iPad's. I am using a MacBook Air and the apple configurator software to try to manage the iPad's. The problem is, only 21 of the 25 iPads will show up in the apple configurator "prepare" section. All of the iPads are not being recognized. When I use a MacBook Pro all 25 iPad's will show. So the problem seems to be with the MacBook Air and/or Apple Configurator. Any suggestions? We have 30 carts total with some having up to 30 iPads so I am trying to find a fix for this.

This seems to be an issue related to the new 2013 MacBook Air models. I've seen it pop up a few times now, and the common factor is always a 2013 MacBook Air.
A "solution" doesn't seem to exist yet. The workaround at this point would be to either use any older Mac to do the syncing, or only connect and sync half of the devices at a time.

Yes, that is correct. My spreadsheet has the following information in those cells if you want to compare yours on Monday:

I ended up bringing the Macbook Pro home with me after struggling with it for a half hour at the end of a long day. I called and within 5 minutes the problem was corrected. The technician said they were getting calls all day.

Ipad not being recognized on my Mac laptop

My Ipad Mini, (just purchased today) is not being recognized on my Mac computer under Devices in the Finder. We also bought a IPod Shuffle and it is recognized. I followed another person's advice from this forum and reloaded the Ipad, but it is still not recognized. I want to move some Epub books to my Ipad, but cannot do this since it's not recognized. I downloaded the Bluefire Reader as was suggested in the forum, but, again, the Ipad is not recognized on my laptop in order to move the books.

It won't appear in Finder, it's not designed to mount as a drive, content is synced via your Mac's iTunes. If it's not being recognised in your Mac's iTunes then there is some troubleshooting on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591
You should be able to copy books to that app by connecting the iPad to your Mac and selecting it on the left-hand sidebar of your Mac's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 then option-command-S should get the sidebar to appear), and then on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen selecting the Apps tab and scrolling down it to the file sharing section : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094
If you've already directly downloaded some apps or other content onto the iPad then you may also find this page useful for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

My iPad mini keeps freezing when using Apple wireless keyboard

I recently bought an iPad with retine display, and an apple wireless keyboard. I don't know if the problem is the iPad, the keyboard, or the app I am using.
I will be typing away fine with my keyboard, however if I stop for too long, the iPad suddenly loses connection with the keyboard and completely freezes. The home button does nothing, the virtual keyboard does nothing, and holding down the power down does nothing. There is no response from the iPad at all. After a few minutes the iPad either returns to the home screen or powers off. I can use it as normal from there. The app I am using is Day One journal, and is a reputable app. I have no idea what the problem is, and I hope it isn't affecting my iPad in the long run. My keyboard is only 2 weeks old, so the batteries are hadly low. I am mainly concerned about the iPad freezing.
Any help?? Thanks.

Hello there Lsu70,
If your app is rendering the iPad unresponsive, I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in this article to help get that resolved, named:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
Start with these steps, but there are additional things to do if these do not resolve the issue:
Follow the steps below and test the app after each step.Restart the app
Close the app and open it again.Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.Update your device software and your apps
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
Update your apps:
Open the App Store and tap Updates.
If updates are available, tap Update All.
If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

IPad 2, mails not being sent when using reply to all feature

Hi,
Under BYOD we have iPads being allowed in our office environment. We have Lotus Notes Traveler servers setup for email access.
We are facing an issue with one executive users iPad 2 in the mail app.
The issue is when user is on WIFI and uses a long signature in the iPad and does a "reply to all" to any mail the mail goes and stays in the outbox.
Single reply or composing a new mail works fine. If we remove long signature, then "reply to all" works fine.
This issue is only with Wi-Fi, on GPRS everything works fine with long signature or without.
The iPad is on iOs 6, we tried resetting and restoring the iPad but the issue still persists.
Would really appreciate if you all could help me solve his issue.'
Thanks

I reset iPod 2G for a friend and now it needs an update however it is not being recognized when I plug it into iTunes. How do I fix this so he can use it for games?

When I plug the iPod touch into my mac, iTunes comes up however it doesn't show the iPod in the left menu area. I'm very illiterate in all of this.

See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, assuming you use Windows.

IPhone and iPad not being recognized by iTunes

Hi All,
I had a late 2007 macbook pro that developed a line across the screen where everything below it was gray. At first it was a simple 'wiggle of the screen' fix, then it evolved into a 'put a bag clip on the side', then it became a 'put a bag clip on the side and wiggle it to find the perfect spot'. My friend (who has the exact same model bought 3 days apart at the same location) upgraded to a macbook air and gave his old computer to me so I'd have a working screen again. He had updated the computer to lion before giving it to me (I had snow leopard). I had the HD's swapped as well as my ram (as I had 4 vs 2gbs). Now the computer is having some serious issues. When I plug in my iphone or ipad it isn't recognized in iTunes, I did notice its recognized in iPhoto but won't actually bring up any of the pictures... just shows that they exist (but are blank). Google Chrome crashes now everytime I use a command to open a tab or close a window etc. I've also noticed that programs are taking 15-30 seconds to open and I'm getting a lot of spinning wheels. Everything is updated and I've tried re-installing snow leopard and the programs that are being affected. And that's all I've noticed so far, but its only been 24 very frustrating hours.
I'd go to apple but all the products are out of service so there won't be any help there. My friend had none of these problems before giving me the computer and took meticulous care of it. Anyone have any ideas what is going on?? I'm having a hard time trying to understand how swapping a HD could possibly cause all these problems.
Thanks a bunch,
Evan

Thank you allan this worked, the final thing was updating the driver softwar for the AMDS in device manager. Thanks again.

Columns are not being recognized when I print a scanned item

I am scanning to an editable document. The document I am scanning has columns but when I print the columns are gone and everything is put in a list. How do I correct this?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi pattyc2738. Scanning items to 'editable text' (also called OCR) can be difficult. Depending on what software you are using, most programs to get the image from the scanning glass only recognize the words, and not the formatting. Columns would be a special formatting feature that most entry level OCR software will not work well with.
The “Scanning Text” section half way down this document may answer some basic questions you have:

DB Connections not being released when using Weblogic Datasource

I am using Kodo-JDO 2.5.3 and Weblogic 8.1.
I have JDO running as a JCA connector and I have a simple stateless session
bean persisting a simple object. My problem is that every time I call my
session bean to persist an object it grabs a connection from the Weblogic
connection pool and never returns it. So if I have configured a maximum of
50 connections in the pool, on my 51st call to the session bean I will get
an error saying it cannot acquire a connection from the pool. (error pasted
below)
I have configured my JDO parameters as follows:
ConnectionRetainMode=persistence-manager (also tried 'transaction')
TransactionMode=xa
ConnectionFactoryName=ERDataSource
ConnectionFactory2Name=NonXADataSource
At the end of every call to the SessionBean I perform a
persistenceManager.close(); and a persistenceManager=null;
Any ideas why connections are not getting re-used?
Exception I am receiving:
java.sql.SQLException: Internal error: Cannot obtain XAConnection
weblogic.common.resourcepool.ResourceLimitException: No resources currently
available in pool MyJDBC Connection Pool-1 to allocate to applications,
please increase the size of the pool and retry..

A couple of suggestions that might do the trick:
1. Upgrade to 2.5.4
2. Leave the ConnectionRetainMode to its default value (on-demand).
3. Make sure you always close your Query results and Extent iterators.

"Smart" Groups not being recognized when syncing with iPhone

I have several "smart" groups in my address book but they don't show up as available to sync with my iPhone. What's up with that?

Same here. It would be nice to get an answer!

Name/Password not being accepted when trying to install software

New iMac user here. When trying to install new software I get a message "Type your password to allow install of _________ to make changes." I am entering the correct password for my user name, even changed it to make sure. Not able to get through this part of the installation process. Any information is appreciated!

NurseCarol,
Double check that the caps lock isn't on, if it isn't then try restarting in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. If that doesn't work your new iMac has 90 days of AppleCare support. You can call them M-Sat during business hours, the phone number is in your owners manual.

My iPod is stuck on the Apple logo and won't do anything! It won't turn on, doesn't give me the option to power it off, and to top it all off, it's not being recognized by my computer OR by iTunes when I plug it into my computer.

So yeah...last night I was checking out my iPod (bored at the in-laws) and all of a sudden the screen went blank and the only thing I can get it to do is have the black screen w/ the white apple logo on it. It won't turn on, doesn't give the the option to power down, it won't charge, AND it's NOT being recognized when I plug it into my computer. Not by iTunes OR my computer. I've tried holding down the top button and the home button at the same time...nothing. And since it's not being recognized on my computer, I cannot restart it or go back to factory settings. Someone please help! I've had it for 18 months so the warranty is no longer valid and I don't know how to fix it. THANK YOU in advance!

- I would try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then see if iTunes will see the iPod. try both with the iPod not connected to the computer and with it connect. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Next see if placing the the iPod in DFU mode will make it visible

SONY HDR-FX1 Not being recognized in Leopard

Hello, Im trying to connect my SONY HDR-FX1 and import video to Final Cut, but the camera is not being recognized, when I plug it in by firewire, the Camera displays the usual "DV-IN" but nothing happens on the Mac.
Im new to Macs so I have no idea of what to do
Help owuld be greatly Appreciated

Is your tape HDV or just DV? If the camera displays DV in, you have your camera set to play standard DV footage, or downconvert HDV footage. If that's what you want, then you'll need to use one of the DV Easy Setups in FCP.
The important thing to do first, though, is turn all your equipment off. Camera, computer, all.
Make sure the camera is connected to the computer via FireWire first, then turn it on and load your tape.
Now turn on the Mac, and launch FCP. Close any previous projects that may have opened.
Now choose the proper Easy Setup from the FCP menu. This will depend on whether you are NTSC or PAL, and if you have HDV or DV footage.
NOTE: If you have HDV footage, you'll need to make sure the camera is set to play out HDV, and choose an HDV 1080 setup.
Next, open a new untitled project, and open the log and capture window.
Now, your camera should be recognized, and you should be able to control it from the keyboard, and begin to capture.

What happens when the Apple Configurator Certs Expire?

So I was looking at some iPads I deployed sometime ago using Apple Configurator. Last summer I brough them all in (about 220 units,) wiped them, used configurator to install iOS 5.1, all supervised, and named according to the Teacher they were given out to. Haven't seen the iPads since. Last few weeks I've had a few come back with misc problems and I noticed within the Supervision Profile the "Signing Certificate" and "Certificate" for Apple Configurator both expire on August 13, 2013. What will happen on/after August 13, 2013 with these units?

From another site, I got a tip that if you use Keychain Access, double click on the AppleConfigurator (MAC address of machine) entry (it'll have a red X badge & the date it expired), open up the Trust disclosure triangle and set "When using this certificate"t o Always Trust. The red X badge changes to a blue + badge.
