Location Aware Lists in Reminder?

In the new ios5 app Reminders....I know that you can make an item in a list location aware. No Problem. But can you make an entire list location aware. The obvious example is a Grocery List. Of course I can make one item in the list location aware...but them I would have to go through that drill every time I update the list. So to my question...can you make an entire list location aware so the items in the list can change but the list is what is location aware?
If not...that need to be resolved, no?

>If you thought I said making an app is easy, you're reading a different thread.
In your previous post you said: "iBA's functionality can be easily be replicated _and_ exceeded by an app". So you did say "easily".
>What do you want from me?
I just asked if location-awareness was possible in an iBook. (Since web pages can be location-aware, it doesn't strike me as impossible that an iBooks widget could be location-aware as well.)
If it's not possible, then a simple "it's not possible" would be fine.

Get Siri to set location reminders (using multiple reminder lists)

I found a way to get Siri to set location reminders using multiple reminder lists (but you can just use one list too):
First make additional lists in the reminder app: click list button (the lines on the left) > edit > create new list > done. Make as many as you want. I have grocery, home, personal, business, family.
Let's say you want a reminder to pick up apples when you get to the apple store. You must add the location in your contacts to your name in contacts.
Do the following:
In maps app find the location with search.
Tap the blue arrow > Add to contacts > Add to existing contact
Choose your name in contacts. It will be added under your address for home or work so you will need to edit it:
Click Edit.
Click on the small label on the left of the new address - it will just say "address"
Scroll to bottom of page and click on Create custom label
Enter the location name like "Apple Store". Click Done.
Important Note: You will need to delete the url it adds under your home url section and maybe other things it messes up with the new contact info instead of yours - so check all the fields each time you do this.
To make a location based reminder using a specific list you must open that list yourself - Siri will not open it for you.
Example:
Open grocery list yourself in the reminders app
Tell Siri something like: "remind me to pick up apples" (Do not mention the location yet - if you do it will not work)
Siri will ask: "When should I remind you?"
Say: "When I get to the apple store"
Siri will say she will remind you and you will see the location reminder in the grocery list.
This is how it works for me but if you know an easier way let me know! This is beta so I'm sure it will get easier.

I have one thing to add. You don't have to open the list manually. Tell Siri: "Add to my <listname> list". For example, if you have a list named "Work", tell Siri: "Add to my work list". Siri will reply, "What should I add to your 'Personal' list?
and you can continue from there.
There is a syntax for doing all this in one sentence, but I find it only works about half the time. Too many fields for Siri to parse in her current Beta stage

How can I turn off Location-aware browsing?

Got notice of upgrade. Downloaded 3.6.15 and installed. On your page describing new features, you prominently mention "Location-aware browsing," as well as the fact that I can turn this spyware off, but after looking through all the "Tools" area, I cannot find a way to turn it off. I am absolutely disgusted that Mozilla has been allowing people to spy on me all these many years I have been using your browsers clear back to Netscape. How can you get away with this without asking my permission? '''NOW TELL ME HOW TO TURN OFF THIS INSIDIOUS PIECE OF *!'''
''Edited for language - TonyE''

People can not spy on you. Firefox only requests a location when a website makes a request, and only shares your location when you has approved the request. Firefox does not track or remember your location as you browse.
It is an opt-in service, to turn disable it do the following:
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''geo.enabled''', double-click on it to change its value to '''false'''

i have a dell inspiron 1501 laptop running windows vista home premium media center edition. i have recently been getting an error when trying to view networked computer saying "connection status: unknown" and "the dependency service or group failed to start". i started by disabling and re-enabling the driver and that did not help. i then brought up the services.msc thing and started looking at the networking services. i noticed that the Network Location Awareness service was not started so i tried to start it. i got a popup message saying "Windows could not start the Netwrok Location Awareness service on Local Computer. Error 0xc000096: 0xc0000096".
i also get an error popup when i try to start the Network List service saying "Windows could not start the Network List Service service on Local Computer. Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start".
what might i have done to make this happen and what can i do to try to fix it?

Network location awareness + Registry permissions..

Hello
I am currently in the pilot phase of a Windows 8.1 deployment for a mid size client
We have come across a strange issue. We have been using SCCM 2012 R2 for the deployment - a fairly vanilla deployment. Randomly, a PC will deploy and function correctly, with IE working and networks connecting as you would expect. However, when you open
Network and Sharing Center, windows says "You are not connected to any networks"
This prevents also Outlook 2013 from starting up and finding the users mailbox.
A fix has been found to this:
Edit the permissions on this registry key and all sub-keys:
- HKLM \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ Current Version \ Network List
to allow NetworkService and LocalSystem full access, and restarting the Network Location Awareness service.
This fix can be scripted and implemented during the OSD Task Sequence.
Why is this issue happening across the same PC hardware, networks, build process etc etc. Is this a bug with Windows 8.1?
I'd certainly like an explanation here.
Cheers
Adrian.

Hi Adrian,
For the issue, I think the issue is related to your image.
As you know, the system can change the access permission for Network List.
But I cannot understand why it occurred randomly.
I suggest you use a new image to narrow down the issue.

Network Location Awareness disconnecting Wi-Fi when VPN connected

Hi All,
We have VPN software which creates a virtual NIC. When it connects using the Wi-Fi bearer interface we often see that the Wi-Fi connection drops after exactly 60 seconds from the VPN establishing an IP address. We only get this problem when the VPN is used
on Windows 8. Windows 7 never has this issue. We have looked at NCSI, allowing packets through the Wi-Fi interface, and network profiles nut no success.
We found that when the "Network Location Awareness" service is disabled (which also stops the dependent services Network List, HomeGroup and Network Connected Devices Auto-Setup) then the Wi-Fi connection is reliable. This leads us to think that
NLA takes control of the Wireless interface to drop the connection. We cannot find any information on NLA changes in Windows 8, as we don't get the issue on Windows 7.
Any insight appreciated.
Alan

Hi,
Have you tried to establish a VPN connection with windows integrated VPN client? If it works, it means that the software VPN client affects the WIFI connection.
If it still doesn’t work, you may check this,
Try to connect to other Aps.
Install latest WIFI NIC driver.
It could be the security software issue. Try clean boot for a test.
Besides, is there any error or warning related to WIFI or VPN in the event viewer? It is helpful for further troubleshooting.
Hope this helps.

Location aware browsing puts me in a different city and state. Can I manually set my location?

I tried using location aware browsing for several websites, including http://m.goplaysavetriangle.com/nearby_merchants/list
At one point I was able to force a manual location which was correct, but today that is no longer working. I am in Raleigh, NC, and the browser thinks I am in Arlington, VA.
How do I force a manually entered location for this?

Hi windskisong,
You can turn off location aware browsing by going to the configuration settings. Type about:config in your browser window. Find the setting geo.enabled and double click it to set it to “false.”
To give a different location, you could try using the Geolocater extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/geolocater/
Did either of those help with what you need?

Is there a location aware wifi option (or app) that enables wifi at a specific location (home) and automatically disables it when you are away from the specified location?

I manually turn off my wifi when leaving home for several reasons:
1. I don't want my wifi to be on and constantly scanning wifi networks while I am away from home due to privacy reasons. Many retail stores and airports are now tracking users based on their smartphone's wifi pings. They can then store your phone's MAC address (the unique identifier of your phone) to determine how often you visit the store and where you go within the store. It's just a matter of time before they match up your phone's MAC address with your credit card/payment info and then to your identity. The only way to subvert this is to turn off your phone's wifi.
2. For security reasons: Wifi access points can track devices that broadcast their wifi signal, even if they don't ever actually connect to the access point's network. These access points can then store your device's details including your phone's MAC address. Once your phone's MAC address is discovered, it can be targeted by a hacker. In addition, there are multiple well known hacker tools that can be used to scan for smartphone wifi signals in order to detect and then hack your iphone. Bottom line: if your wifi is discoverable, then your device is hackable.
3. I believe it would save battery life if the iphone's wifi is not on and constantly scanning for networks all the time.
There are other reasons as well, but the above are my 3 main reasons for asking about this.
The reminders app is location aware - you can set reminders to alert you when you are at a specific location. So, why not provide the option (or an app) to only enable wifi when you are at home - or any other location where you have an authorized or trusted wifi?
As it is right now, the iphone's wifi is broadcasting 24/7 everywhere you go. Not great for privacy & security. When I turn off my wifi, the phone uses my 4G plan for data and GPS for location services... so wifi is not needed at all for data or location services while I am away from home (and no, wifi does not improve location accuracy, that is a fallacy... there is nothing within the wifi protocol that could ever improve location accuracy). But the point is, wifi should have a location aware option. Otherwise, it's just a matter of time before there is a headline story about how not having this feature is a huge security/privacy problem.

Understood. However, the point that I'm trying to make is that it's not the WiFi access point's security that's in question, it's having your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode that's in question. It's simple: if your phone's WiFi is on, then it is both discoverable and hackable... even when it's not connected to a WiFi network or access point. Here's an article about a drone in London that was created to hack smartphone WiFi signals (and hackers have been doing what this drone does for years):
http://money.cnn.com/2014/03/20/technology/security/drone-phone/
The point is that it's not secure to have your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode. It would be better for privacy and security if Apple made WiFi location aware so that it is only enabled when you are at a trusted location (e.g. your home or office). Or, at least give us the option of location aware WiFi so that each user can determine the best mode for their phone:
(1) Always-On (current default - not secure and many privacy issues).
(2) Trusted mode (only on at trusted locations).
(3) Off.

Location-Aware Printing not working correctly in Windows 8

I am running Windows 8 Enterprise 64-bit on a Lenovo ThinkPad X230 laptop and joined to a domain. I have set up location aware printing (in Devices and Printers -> Manage default printers) to map to different printers between office and home.
It works but with a glitch.
It does the switching correctly if I put the laptop in Sleep mode when I leave office/home.
However, with a shutdown/restart or a reboot, the "Manage Default Printers" setting would revert back to "Always use the same printer as my default printer".
Am I the only one who has this issue?

i may have some more information:
if i disable hybrid sleep the bug doesnt occur. try it and let me know
First open Control Panel.
Navigate to Hardware and Sound -> Power Options
Click on "Choose what the power button does" on left hand side.
Click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable" later on.
Now you will see at the bottom an option "Enable Hybrid Boot" under Windows shutdown settings. From here you can either enable or disable
Hybrid Boot by either checking or unchecking that check box option. When Hybrid Boot is enabled, Windows 8 does not close the kernel session, but closes just the user sessions.
Correction: No it dont help but setting stick for a while after start but suddently reverts back to faulty setting when boot has completed
hence something must change setting during boot

I can't get location-aware browsing working

Location-Aware browsing sounds like it would be really useful for me, but either I can't figure out how to get it activated, or there aren't any commonly used websites that make use of that feature. In the FAQ, the Firefox team mentions going into your Tools section to make some adjustments, but I can't find any such Tools section, and the Preference section, which I assume you must be referring to, doesn't offer any options like that.
== Extensions installed: ==
Adblock Plus

One location-aware site that you can test with is http://maps.google.com/ It should detect that it can get location information from your browser. Another is http://m.flickr.com/ -- click on the "Photos Taken Nearby" link.

Can I Turn Off Location Awareness in Safari?

I go to a website that regularly asks me if I will allow it to use my location for purposes of my visit. I find this request annoying and not useful to me. When I asked the site folks how to prevent it, they directed me to a place where I could turn off location awareness . . . in Windows.
Is there a similar ability in Mac Safari 5.1.2? I can't find one.

Functional location Task lists Header/Operation Mass Upload

Hello experts,
I am using LSMW to upload Functional location Task lists Header & Operations in T-code IA12, for this i am using the Standard program IBIP (Object -> 480).
All required fields are in the standard structures apart from Operation QM Data, Recording view -> ERFSICHT & Inspection point Completion -> QPPKTABS (see attached screen shot).
Should i upload these 2 fields in different way ?
Thank you by advance.
Regards,
Soufiane

Generally, for all kinds of task list (Maintenance, Quality as well as Production), I tend to use BDC programs by which all the fields can be addressed. In standard, there are certain fields which might have got avoided for certain reasons.
So, I suggest you to look for some other options available.

In the URL bar, type about:config Type geo.enabled Double click on the geo.enabled preference Location-Aware Browsing is now disabled, does not work How do you turn this Off!

In the URL bar, type about:config
