Lion Server push notifications to iOS 5 only partially working

I'm attempting to enable push notifications from my 10.7.2 Lion Server to my iOS 5 and Lion clients. All services (OD, Calendar Server, Mail, DNS, etc.) are running off of the same server. Push for Lion clients works fine for IMAP and CalDAV. I see "Push" in iCal preferences -> account settings.
For iOS 5 however I only see push enabled for Mail. I have confirmed it works as well. However, Calendars and Contacts show "fetch" in Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> "Fetch New Data" -> Advanced.
iChat is running. I've verified all the iChat related ports are opened in the firewall.
I have a "real" certificate for my domain and clients are pointed to that domain name.
There are no errors in the logs. The caldavd configuration file in /etc/caldavd/ looks fine.
I'd appreciate any ideas where else to look!

Not sure but in well known ports is this
2195
TCP
Apple Push Notification Service (APNS)
Push notifications
2196
TCP
Apple Push Notification Service (APNS)
Feedback service

Lion Server push notifications to iOS5

Hello All,
I'm having trouble with push notificaitions to iOS 5 devices from Lion Server. Mail, Contacts and Calendar services appear to be working but any time new mail or new meeting invite is sent, I see the below error message regarding APNS:
Nov 21 12:40:57 zion com.apple.APNBridge[10240]: Disconnected from apn server gateway.push.apple.com for topic com.apple.calendar.XServer.6ac5b2cd-6c4b-4801-bb11-48ec449e5e7e: error The operation couldn’t be completed. Operation timed out

I recently updated my APNS certificate, which I believe could be part of the problem. All iOS devices are on the same subnet as the server, so firewalling is not an issue. Moreover, I'm not blocking traffic outbound (to the internet) so I know the server can connect to the APNS. Any ideas or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

re Question 2 APN & 2195
Looks like you need to forward Port 2195 & maybe also port 2196
To use Profile Manager, you should ensure that the following ports are open on your network.
Port
TCP/UDP
Description
2195, 2196
TCP
Used by Profile Manager to send push notifications
5223
TCP
Used to maintain a persistent connection to APNs and receive push notifications
80/443
TCP
Provides access to the web interface for Profile Manager admin
1640
TCP
Enrollment access to the Certificate Authority

Configure and use push notifications for IOS - Xamarin

Is it possible to configure and use push notifications in SharePoint 2013 apps for iPhone Xamarin.
Recently I started creating a Xamarin application that supports both Android and IPhone application. So my doubt here is, Is it possible to create a solution in SharePoint Server for sending
push notifications and a client side iOS - Xamarin application for receiving the notifications.
If Possible how I can create the same. Please help. If it is not possible anyone please suggest me a workaround to implement the same.

This is not a permanent fix but through this you can easily use the apps
Go to Settings> General> Accessibility> Guided Access
Now tap the Guided Access and turn it on.
Now go straight to the app which is having this problem. After opening the app press the home button 3 times to activate the Guided Access mode.
After activating and choosing a password you'll see that there is no "connect to iTunes to use push notifications in ios 8.1" pop up any more.
If you want to leave the app press the home button three times again.
Thanks
It works 100%

Push Notification to iOS devices through Sharepoint 2013

Hi
We are developing a iphone application which is consuming sharepoint 2013 rest apis. we have a requirement to send pushnotification to iphones when a document is added or deleted. So will sharepoint exposes url to subscribe channel urls from iphone, I saw
for windows phone it is available.
1) Need to know how to subscribe from iphone to sharepoint, is there any subscribe url with parameters like device id and channel url.

Hi,
Per my understanding, you might want to push notification to iOS devices in SharePoint 2013 when there is document added or deleted.
In SharePoint, we can use Event Receiver to monitor the item added/deleted event and perform accordingly.
More information on Event Receiver for your reference:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg749858(v=office.14).aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff408183(v=office.14).aspx
However, as there is no such APIs exposed in SharePoint can help to handle the push notification to iOS devices, a workaround is that, you might need to create an application in
server side and perform the notification pushing there instead.
For the issue about pushing notification to iOS devices, as it is not a SharePoint related issue, I suggest you post a question to the corresponding forum, you will get more help
and confirmed answers there.
Thanks

Server Push Notification via Applescript

I am running a Mac Mini Server 10.9.
I know that I can display a system notification by via AppleScript by doing:
display notification "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet" with title "Title"
However; I would like to push a custom notification down to my iCloud enabled devices using Apple's Notification Protocol, bundled with server.
For example purposes- My server is on a public IP address, which is dynamic. If it changes, I have a bash script setup to send me an email with the new IP address. I was hoping to utilize Apple's Notification tools to provide a more elegant solution for accomplishing these type of notifications.
Thanks in advance for any insight.

Dimiter Dimitrov
For push notification, you have to use security profile as "Notification" and have to add required role as "Notification User". You can also add other authentication providers as you mentioned for MYSAPSSO2.
Settings>Security profiles>Notification(Cannot be deleted)
For APNs traffic to get past your firewall, you'll need to open these ports:
TCP port 5223 (used by devices to communicate to the APNs servers)
TCP port 2195 (used to send notifications to the APNs)
TCP port 2196 (used by the APNs feedback service)
TCP Port 443 (used as a fallback on Wi-fi only, when devices are unable to communicate to APNs on port 5223)
Send Push Notifications to the Device

No push notifications in iOS 7.1

Hi, I have a problem with my push notifications since I updated to iOS 7.1. I do get push notifications from my Mail app, but Whatsapp and Facebook fail to do this. Quite annoying... Does anyone else have this problem?

I'm seeing similar issues, although only for certain apps - for some apps, push notifications are still working after updating to iOS 7.1, but for other apps the push notifications have stopped working. And the settings in the Notifications centre are the same as before the update when notifications were working.

Not receiving Push Notifications in iOS App

We have recently developed an app which uses Push notifications service. We are facing the issue that the Push is working inconsistently, two days back we had received the Push notification but later when we tried we dint get anything and for the past two days we are not receiving any Push notification. We have checked out our PHP script, recreated the certificates tried using Hard Coded Device Tokens and even from the server. But nothing seems to work and the worse is that we get a success from the Apple server yet nothing comes on the device. We are just unable to fix this issue. Can someone pls help its very urgent.

Yes, I've noticed this also.
Not on my iPhone 5 running iOS 8, but after activating my iPhone 6 and restoring backup.

Why won't my push notifications for the app snapchat work after yesterday's iOS update?

After yesterday's update the app snapchat won't send me push notifications anymore

Hello Nhuphham,
It sounds like you are not receiving your Snapchat notifications on your iPhone. I found an article with steps that might help with this:
Additional Information
If you have an app that could send frequent notifications (for example, Mail with high-traffic email accounts, Twitter apps, and so on), your iOS device could wake frequently to display the notification (and affect battery life). You can disable "View in Lock Screen" for a particular app in Settings > Notifications > <app name>.
Troubleshooting notifications
Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection. If you are not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
Verify that the app supports notifications.
After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app at least once to begin receiving notifications.
If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
Check Settings > Notifications to ensure that the app is configured for notifications.
If notifications do not appear only in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
If you are still unable to receive notifications and you are using a Wi-Fi connection, verify that the network or firewall is not blocking access to port 5223.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Understanding Notifications
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
If you are still not receiving the notifications for Snapchat after following those steps, I recommend continuing with the steps in the following article:

Push Notifications in iOS 7

With iOS 7.0.2 I have noticed that some apps like Mail, Whatsapp and Facebook Messenger don't receive push notifications like they did before.
I tried to clear all data and restore the firmware but it keeps happening. I don't know what else to try.
I want to know if it's another problem of iOS 7 or on the contrary is a error of my iPhone.

I'm seeing similar issues, although only for certain apps - for some apps, push notifications are still working after updating to iOS 7.1, but for other apps the push notifications have stopped working. And the settings in the Notifications centre are the same as before the update when notifications were working.

Push notifications for iOS 7 updates

When I receive a push notifications that there is an update available for the newest version of iOS 7....will it automatically download and install or will it give me the option to not download and do it at another time. I see that the notification appears and I have to hit "ok" but will it force me to download it right then and there or can I wait until later. I only ask because I have a limited data allowance available and would rather download it when it is more convenient for me.
Thanks for the help that anyone can give.

Push notifications and iMessage won't work on iPod 4th gen refurbished after updating to last ear iOS

My iPod has been working well for a while other than the battery draining very quickly. But just today I updated to iOS 6.1.3 and all of a sudden iMessage won't deliver the messages and my push notifications aren't showing up! I don't know what is making this happen, but this along with the battery issue is driving me crazy!!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Try turning off the following to conserve battery:
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Push>OFF
Settings>Notifications>Mail>Gmail>Notification Center>OFF
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Fetch New Data>Off

Address Book in Lion Server....Read Only

Hi,
Is there a way on how to making the addressbook server read only (meaning can't be edited)?
Last year, I setup a Lion Server for a company that will serve as an Addressbook server for them and at the same time
configuring their devices via Profile manager. Problem is every now and then, clients unintentionally sometimes adding address or deleting
some of the address (phone numbers) in that addressbook resulting to frequent remake of the companies shared addressbook.
Here is my desired setup:
An addressbook that only the admin can made a change (add/delete contacts).
Im looking into LDAP as a addressbook but Im not familiar with it.
Thanks in advance...

Did anybody answer back to you yet about how to setup READ/CREATE/EDIT/DELETE rights on the Address Book Server ! We have had poeple in our company ereasing entries on shared address books so many times that we are thinking about switching back to windows.... I mean come on people at apple, these where the basics back in the days of DBase, how can they be missing today... I have trouble comprehending this way of thinking!
I found this site on the net wich looks somewhat what I am looking for, but this seems to influence the whole server, I need this on address book level though:
