Ipod time server
Hi all
Just a quick question hoping someone can help
I have been having a few issues with iPods
We use the in Leisure Centers, and we are having issues with the automatic time updates
I believe the iPods connect to time.apple.com for the time?
Is this correct?
Also if it fails to talk to that does it then go to any fall back servers?
Just asking as we want to lock the devices down so staff cant browse the general internet, but obviouslt need the time to be right!
Any advice on this would be greatley appriciated
Thanks
Gareth Lynch
I believe it connects to time.apple.com. However, instead of a domain, it connects to 17.171.4.33:123.

Possible to use time server with iPod touch?
Is is possible to have the time set on an iPod touch via a time server? Alternatively, to synch the time on the iPod with the time on a computer you use to synch the iPod?
But then I can have all dvds and music on a time capsule and then run it via itunes on my mac and from there to the apple tv
Yes, if you move the iTunes Media Folder to the Time Capsule.
But.....if you move the iTune Media Folder to the Time Capsule.....how are you planning to back up this important data?
(You will lose everything in the Media Folder when.....not if....the Time Capsule has a problem and you do not have a backup copy.)
A much safer plan would be to keep the iTunes Media Folder on your Mac.....or add another hard drive connected to the Mac and move the Media Folder to that drive.
Then Time Machine will backup both your Mac and and hard drive. So, you have "originals" on one drive and backups on another. -
I have a 4th gen. Itouch wiht IOS4 and i want to update it, but when i click the update button in ITunes it says "contacting IPod software server" and it looks like it is loading. However, after about 5 seconds it stops and says "ITunes could not connect to the IPod software server". I found the apple webpage that is supposed to help me, but when i went to the LAN settings in the control panel i found that 'Automatically detect settings" was already checked. I do not know what to do, Please help.
If yo mean the iPod will not connect to your wifi network:
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Do other devices now connect?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Hi, please help me
When my iPod was 'preparing for update' my iPod USB accidently fell out. I turned it on and a usb sign and an arrow to iTunes came up, so I plugged it in. It comes up with a message saying iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode, You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. After that, I clicked restore and it said 'The iPod software server update could not be contacted' and that's it!
I've tired,
Resetting my iPod (the usb to iTunes sign still comes up)
Holding down the Home and Power button at the same time for many seconds
Restting my computer
Going into LAN settings and changing that
Please, I really want it too work as I just got it today for my birthday
Any help would be much appriciated, thank youYu can try here. However, other users been having the same problem so it may be due to a problem with the Apple servers.
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server -
Hello,
I'm trying to get my 2008 R2 server (physical server) to synch with an external time server. I've read other threads on the topic but have not found a solution. I'm sure i'm missing something.
First the step leading to the error:
w32tm /resync /rediscover
Sending resync command to local computer
The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
Following is the history:
Here are the steps
C:\>netdom /query fsmo
Schema master DC-01.coastal.local
Domain naming master DC-01.coastal.local
PDC DC-01.coastal.local
RID pool manager DC-01.coastal.local
Infrastructure master DC-01.coastal.local
The command completed successfully.
next:
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:time.nist.gov,0x1 /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
The command completed successfully.
next:
net stop w32time && net start w32time
The Windows Time service is stopping.
The Windows Time service was stopped successfully.
The Windows Time service is starting.
The Windows Time service was started successfully.
Next:
w32tm /resync /rediscover
Sending resync command to local computer
The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
Next:
Did a restart of the server and repeated:
w32tm /resync /rediscover
Sending resync command to local computer
The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
Next:
Ran the following:
w32tm /query /configuration
C:\>w32tm /query /configuration

Any feedback/guidance appreciated!!Hi,
You may need to update command w32tm /config /syncfromflags:domhier /update, to change the IntranetServer w32time type to nt5ds (this sets the service to pull from the AD).
For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:
The computer did not resync because no time data was available (w32tm)

New Windows 7 formats Time server idle power levels
Hi, I am a new user of an NMH405 which I hope to upgrade to 3TB or 1.5TB raid1 (not 100% yet). I bought the unit as a NAS unit (but chose this model as it was on special offer) hoping that I could use the media server features later.
I have the unit working as a NAS using the original drive and have come up with some questions that I cannot find answered either in the documentation or the FAQ's and community posts.
First Windows 7 appears to be only partialy supported. The folder locations for media are different to Vista and there are new formats such as .WTV which replaces .DVR-MS as the default TV format. The supplied backup software didn't install correctly and the update (well I think the import software is updated) on the website is hidden inside a huge .ISO file which is going to take hours to download. However reading the posts indicates that the .DVR-MS format is only half supported. Solutions involve editing an .XML file or customising the NTI backup in order to get files onto the server. .WTV is not even mentioned anywhere.
Is fully realised Windows 7 support going to be in the next release? and approximately when?
I decided to use a static IP address for the server as I have been suffering master browser problems with Windows networking. However I then ran into the Time server bug and had an 8 hour 14 minute offset to the system time. I have temporarily solved this by assigning a reserved address in my DHCP server and reverting to DHCP mode. However during the process I found that the NMH405 had become the master browser and solved the initial problem - ACE.
Fix next firmware update?
Drive support. This is difficult to keep up to date and June 2009 is a little out of date. Well hidden as well, I first found the list by accident but have since had difficulty finding it deliberately. No "Avoid these drives" list though, but there is sporadic indiction of non-compatibility in the forums. The list is date 7 days before the .ISO image and of course long before the October date of the latest firmware. Cannot find an update notice indicating changes - e.g. drive support.
Make it easier to find and try to keep it more up to date.
Power levels and drive spin down. From the data sheet 60W is the only indication, however a link to a third party indicates 13W but no spin down?. With the emphasis on "Green Power" in the US I am suprised this information is not in bold in the data sheet (though other NAS vendors also hide it). My unit will spend 80% of its life idle, I do hope the drives do get to spin down and extend their life and save power.
Is direct Cisco information available rather than just third party?
Finally perhaps a silly query, but why not. Can I use a USB hub and attach multiple drives externally?
StokersSonHi,
Thanks Wilkins377 for your two cents. At least I know it should work.
Well I now have upgraded to 2 x 1.5GB drives (not in the approved list) and have them working 100% as a raid pair. Also Firmware to 3.18.15
Using a USB hub I have got multiple HDD USB drives working - including NTFS formatted (read only of course). So the hardware is all functional.
However no matter how I format my 2GB and 4GB flash drives (FAT or FAT32 including alternate allocation size) the mediahub does not see them in either port directly or the powered hub. I am using an XP machine to format them. An SD card is seen OK.
Well flash is not important, being able to use multiple USB for backup and networked access is. I am not likely to need to use the hub ports for media import as it is easier to get access to my PC and place the hub out of reach.
I still cannot tell if the drives spin down, they are still quite warm after several hours of only the media hub and router being powered. I need to get a stethascope and listen if they spin up on access, the nearby PC fans are too noisy.

I am trying to build a stand-alone application on a target pc for which I have built a LabVIEW server that TestStand can use as an adapter.
In order to do this, I searched this site and found the topic: "How do I build and Use the LabVIEW Operator Interface as a LabVIEW ActiveX Run-time server?" After following the procedure to the letter, I ran the testexec.exe file as instructed and loaded my sequence file. As soon as I try to "Single Pass" or "Test UUT" I get an error which says "source does not existLast UI message: Start Execution". This error appears when running the testexec.exe file on the target pc or the development pc.
I have found though, th
at if I open the Operator interface through the Start: Programs>National Instruments>TestStand>Operator Interfaces>LabVIEW then the sequence file runs without these errors.
Any ideas why this is happening?Hello Robroy,
The KB you mentioned explaines how to build the LV Operator Interface (OI). So, I assumed you built the LV OI and also configured the LV adapter to use the TestStandGUILVRTS server without problems.
The error you are getting may be due to missing VIs. In other words, the LabVIEW OI may not be finding all the VIs your sequence is calling.
In order to deploy sequences that call VIs, you need to first run Tools >> Assemble VIs for Runtime Distribution. This tool gets all the VIs your sequence needs and saves in a separate directory.
For more information, you may check the TestStand User Manual chapter 17, it describes how to distribute TestStand and sequences.

Apple Remote Desktop - how to change the date and time server ip address?
Our imacs keep getting out of synch with our Windows Active Directory server and when they do, users can no longer log into the imacs. The imacs this morning were more than 5 minutes fast, for example.
So, we have changed the date and time server on one of our imacs to our internal time server and that works fine. Now I would like to update all of the other imacs using a unix command in ARD. Can anyone tell me how to send this change? For this message, let's say our internal time server is 172.30.100.100Not a problem. There are a number of other system and network setup commands that you might find useful at some time. From within the Remote Desktop Admin in the Send Unix Command window type:
networksetup -help
systemsetup -help
That will give you lists of the commands, including the one I posted above, with their basic syntax. They're handy to know.

Apple's time server WRONG for Argentina
Due to the Argentine's governments choice NOT to implement day-light savings this year, the Apple time server is an hour off from the official time in Argentina. This screws up my iCal.
I don't know if this is a "solution", but I had the same issue with the clock widget (I have a clock widget set for Argentina because my wife is from there, and the US clock because I am from the US). Anyway, I changed it from "Buenos Aires" to be "Asunción" because at least the Hour was correct. (I also submitted feedback to Apple). Can you perhaps set your timezone to another one that has the correct time (even though it may not be "Argentina")?
I am kind of glad Ar. didn't do the Daylight Saving thing (I think it's stupid to always change the time), but Yes, the clock is now wrong because Apple's servers are wrong... Hopefully they will fix it soon.
Just my thoughts... -
keeps saying "ipod update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable" when i try and restore my ipod touch..any ideas?
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network

How to configure Lion Server as network time server?
I have Lion Server at the top of a small network of Windows 2K, Windows XP and Windows 7 machines.
I need each of those computers to synch their time to that of the Mac Server because this network operates without internet access.
I have tried various protocols from those machines to synch on the server's IP but they all fail.
It has led me to belive I need to enable a service to allow time synch to the managed computers.
But I can't find information on this. I keep getting directed to how to synch the mac to a time server or time machine configuration tips.
Thanks in advanceIn Server Admin, select your server, click on Settings, then go to the General tab. You will see an option to enable the Network Time Server.

How to synchronize the system time/date of a PXI controller with a GPS or time server?
Using a PXI system with a NI-PXI 8196 controller and LabVIEW RTOS, I am searching for a solution to set or reset the on board timeclock of the controller trough a external signal like a GPS or a time server (ntp).
Do an easy way exist to do this?
Any response will be greatly appreciated.

Setting time or time server on clients with ARD
Does anyone know what files need to be copied to OS X clients to set their time or time server? I know that time server info is stored in /etc/ntp.conf, but this isn't the only file that needs to be sent to set up a client to get its time from a time server. I haven't been able to find the correct .plist file that includes these settings and am not familiar enough with UNIX to know which other files are used for these settings.
Thank you,
PeggyUsing the ARD Send Unix Command option send the following command to the workstations:
systemsetup -settime <hh:mm:ss>
where <hh:mm:ss> is the time you want the systems to have (don't include the brackets). Send the command as the root user (enter root in "send command as:")
To set the time server to use, send:
systemsetup -setnetworktimeserver <timeserver>
substituting the domain name of the time server (again, no brackets).
For more such commands, in Terminal enter:
/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/netw orksetup -help
/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/syst emsetup -help
or from within the Remote Desktop Admin in the Send Unix Command window type:

The weird thing is that ntp configuration is symmetrical between both nodes and the ntp server "193.204.114.232" does not appear in /etc/ntp.conf
Why ntpd should use a server which is not listed in /etc/ntpd.conf ?
