LR Mobile Question
I recently activated LR mobile on my iPad. On my desktop LR 5.7, there is a message about having 27 days left on the trial version. I thought I was entitled to the "real deal" as part of my LR/PS/CC membership? How do I fix?
You can normally click on the nameplate to sign-in to LR mobile or use the top menu:
Lightroom >> Preferences
Then choose the LR mobile tab

Hi!
I am trying to understand the variosu options for mobility for a Jabber on IPAD user when away from the office.
Found this:
1.) Cisco Jabber secure connect enables users who are away from the office Wi-Fi network to easily remain connected to corporate resources. When deployed together with the Cisco ASA 5500 Series Adaptive Security Appliance, the end user connectivity experience is secure, transparent, and friendly to today's proliferation of individually purchased mobile devices. When needed, the Cisco Jabber application - rather than the entire device or platform - initiates a secure Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection and validates the user credentials (whether authentication, authorization, and accounting [AAA] or digital certificates). Also, when the user returns to the office network, the Cisco Jabber application detects that the SSL tunnel is no longer required and breaks the tunnel down. Only application traffic from the Cisco Jabber application will traverse the enterprise, and other applications will not access corporate networks.
2) The Cisco AnyConnect™ solution is also a supported method of remote access, providing customers with multiple deployment options. When Cisco AnyConnect technology is used, all applications on the device will access the corporate network. Also, this technology is a separately distributed, configured, and operated application. The Cisco Jabber application does not control when Cisco AnyConnect technology is enabled or disabled. In this way, the Cisco Jabber application with integrated secure connectivity simplifies both the end user experience and the management and deployment effort
My questions:
1. I have heard rumors however that the Cisco Jabber secure connect will be discontinued, is that correct?
2. If the customer does not have Cisco's ASA FW, what are then the options? Could they continue to run another non- CIsco remote vpn client and then launch Jabber?
Many thanks in advance!
AnnaCisco secure connect is only available for Android. IOS devices must use the mobile AnyConnect through the ASA..
Good news is it is only 105 dollar license to cover everyone. One time fee for the ASA license.

Hi,
I currently subscribe to the photoshop cc photographers package and run mobile lightroom on my iPad and i would like to know if i can also run lightroom on my new iPhone 6 at the same time or can you only use one mobile version.
Many Thanks AdrianHi Adrian
I’m not sure how that works in practice but it may be possible because you would download a separate app for the iPhone compared with the iPad. But the iPhone 6 is very new so you may want to check over on the Creative Cloud forum to see if iOS8 is already supported.
The only problem I would envisage is syncing photos from the phone’s camera roll. It would create a separate collection in Lightroom desktop via smart previews in the cloud but would not sync with the ipad. -
I hope this is the correct forum - my apologies if it is not...
I am receiving the error "Service unavailable due to content error: Please contact service provider" when trying to view a newly created application (through studio.oraclemobile.com).
I am assuming that this means that either the xml file is incorrect, or somehow, it can't see the xml file. I am using the following settings:

Any help at all is appreciated!!!
P.S. I can successfully view the example applications provide by oracle.You probably could post it on the Application Server-> Wireless forum. Your XML doc looks fine.

Hi,
I m new to java and i wonder if you can help me about my problem. What i wanna do is, there are 2 cell phones, x and y. When phone x gets a call, a sms send to phone y.
Is this possible? and i would be so grateful if you can help me.
thanks in advancewell,
there should be an applicaiton (MIDlet or something) in phone x. When this phone x gets a call, this MIDlet inside should understand that this is a call and should send and SMS to a specific phone which is phone y. I dont know how to explain more than that.
Hope this is more clear.
thanks -
Int'l Travel - Charger for Pearl Flip
Pre-buying (T-mobile) questions:
BB site says flip comes with no charger. Is this true/possible?
Otherwise, any concerns I should consider for international (Europe) travel with the Flip? Can I just buy a plug adapter and not worry about currency convertors?
Also, anything anyone could volunteers about unlocking the Flip and using a local SIM card for lower call/data rates, worthwhileness of getting T-Mobile Hot-Spot service, or general thoughts on least expensive options for calling within Europe and to the US.
thank you.I took my T-mobile Blackberry Pearl Flip to New Zealand. Used the US AC charger with a NZ plug with no problem.
I also added the T-mobile int'l data plan for that month, $20. Data was seamless, exactly like being in the US. I don't get a lot of calls, I use the phone far more for data, so I didn't worry about anyone calling me and being charged the high per-minute charge--something like $2/minute as I recall.
I did work with T-mobile before I went to unlock my phone so that I could buy a SIM card when I got to NZ. You should be able to find a wireless vendor in the airport where you land; I've heard that from many other travers, and it was certainly true in NZ. I think I purchased mine through Vodaphone, which seems to be ubiquitous. It's best to purchase the card in the counrtry you're traveling to, because they seem to be specific to a country or a region. I ended up not using the card I bought, because I was traveling with another friend so we used her T-mobile Android for voice, with the card she bought, and my phone for data. So I have a card that will work in New Zealand sitting in my desk. It doesn't work in very many other countries so I'm out of luck unless I find a friend who's going there and has a SIM phone!
More and more places around the globe have wireless, so you might want to check the number of T-mobile hotspots where you're going to see if it's worth paying for them, or if you could use wireless where you're staying.
Here's what you need to know: you can't use your regular data plan on the phone if you have a different SIM card in it. And you can't get the low phone rates if you keep in your regular SIM card. So you have to switch cards out depending on what you want to do.
A note: one feature I think the Flip is missing is the ability to turn off individual services. I'd have liked to turn off the voice feature, keeping data. On other BBs I think you can, but not on the Flip.
I hope this helps. -
Dynamic LOV's - can we display more than one field in the Select list.
I have the following query.
SELECT DISTINCT NAME d, legal_entity_id r
FROM xle_entity_profiles
ORDER BY NAME
So the drop down would contain the Organizational Name - say in the case China mobilex
The legal entity id is - 100
Issue, there's also a legal entity id of 110 that is mapped to the same Organizational name - China mobilex
so in the select list display it would look like
China mobile
China mobile
QUESTION - is there a way to display BOTH
China mobile 100
China mobile 110Hi Mikez,
Perhaps the super LOV plugin of Skillbuilders would suit your needs more. It lets you create a modal dialog LOV with multiple columns, so you can display your selectable entries like:
"Organizational Name" | "Country" | "Address" | "Phone Number"
From a users point of view that would make more sense than an id column.

Currently the system consists 2 Servers
OES11 + GW2012
Due to reorganization we are moving a whole department to another site
the site will be linked by Site-Site VPN over an ADSL link
Server 1 - user files
Server 2 - groupwise inc webaccess & gwia - single post office
So my thoughts are to add a 3rd server & add a 2nd PO
move users concerned to new PO
Server 3 will have PO, MTA & Webaccess installed
There is a GW Document library being used by most of the users - so will need to have a library for each PO
Mobiles are setup as IMAP - I have 2 GWIA's running on Server 2 (2nd GWIA for out bound only for mobiles)
Questions:
First of is adding a 2nd PO the answer or do I need to consider anything else ....are there any "gottchas"
Would users at both PO be able to use mobiles via GWIA on Server 2
I'm NOT sure how the documents will move...Document Management - when I move users from one PO to another would the documents move to the PO ?
Folder Shares - what happens - would sharing still be valid?
Documents - what happens to documents that are currently shared ?
Anyone done this before? - any advice appreciatedIn article <[email protected]>, Bhrt60 wrote:

It is easiest if you can build this server on the IP addressing of the new
location. It 'just' needs your router to know that network as local and do
the routing between the two networks. Those networking changes are
usually easier to do than all the bits in OES.
> Would users at both PO be able to use mobiles via GWIA on Server 2
As long as that GWIA can get to both POAs, it should be just fine.

I'm a bit fuzzy on that side as well as my clients haven't used DM much.
Unless someone else pipes in, you might just have to experiment a bit and
watch carefully when you move a user with known files in DM.

Questions on MCX Policies for Laptop/Mobile Users:
Questions on MCX Policies for Laptop/Mobile Users:
I have several managed Macs running Leopard. Many of them are MacBook laptops. My main MCX policies involve mapping printers and mounting network volumes at login. These are simple computer and group policies to help make the users life a little easier when it comes to finding and using network resources such as file server volumes and network printers.
Since most of my users are laptops, they are expressing 2 major concerns involving their laptops when they are off the LAN (i.e.; on the road at a cafe, working at home, staying at a hotel or when they have no network at all)
1) When users are off our LAN, the Mac still tries to mount the network volumes in their OD/MCX login items when the user logs in (with cached mobile credentials). Can this be avoided? Windows PCs do not do this. If the PC laptop cant find an AD DC, they simply don't run the login scripts and thus dont try to mount/map network volumes. How can I make the Mac laptops only mount network volumes when they are on the LAN?
2) Most Mac users have a Cisco VPN client, and use it regularly to connect to the company's LAN from home, hotels etc. Of course when they log into the network via VPN, their network volumes are not mounted automatically. Is their a way to re-run the MCX managed login items script once they connect to the VPN and mount (i.e.; "map") their network drives? Sure, users can simple use the "Connect To Server" option in the FInder (or perhaps try and use the god-awful Leopard Finder side bar discovery browser thingy which I hate - never mind), but I need a consistent automated way to mount volumes quickly and easily for my mobile users. There must be a way to run (or re-run) the login items part of my MCX policies.Ping!
I'm looking for this functionality too. Anyone have a solution to either of these? One that came to mind is to wrap the login items in a script which detects if the LAN is available. -
Questions on mobile device management
Hi All,
I'm not sure where to post this question since I couldn't find a forum specific to Afaria, so thought someone here might be able to help.
1. Afaria mobile device management solution claims that data and content is backed up and can be deleted if a device is stolen or lost. Can this deletion be done if the mobile is switched off of the SIM card has been removed? What is the mechanism of the data deletion process when the device is either ON/OFF?
2. How does Afaria handle online and offline user authentication? If a mobile app is opened, can Afaria be configured to force the user to enter credentials for authentication? Or should there be a separate login page as a part of the mobile app? (The user's credentials are needed to find his role from LDAP and the rest of the app to work properly, which is y the question).
Thanks & Regards,
VaishnaviThis forum is fine for Afaria discussions and questions, no worries.
1. If mobile device is switched off or not network connected then Afaria is not able to do anything with that device. The content though would be secured, encrypted etc. so that there should be no risk as long as the device is switched off. The "kill device" command that can be sent from Afaria will work if device is turned on and connected to a network.
2. Afaria can force quite a lot of things and one of them is regarding the device itself, forcing a password/pin type of unlocking. The mobile app normally has it's own mechanism for authentication, user name and password. That is a SUP function and has little to do with Afaria, I don't believe Afaria can force that part of authentication.
You can get a good overview of the technical part of Afaria here: [Afaria Technical White paper|http://www.sybase.com/files/White_Papers/Afaria-Technical-WP.pdf] -
Sample JAVA Mobile Server Publish code, and technical questions
Dear Oracle technical representative, or user:
I need to programmatically create, and remove publications using the pure JAVA classes of Consolidator, ConsolidatorManager, and ResourceManager for the Mobile Server in OracleLite 9i Release 5.0.1. On the creation side I have managed to get the example found in the directory OraLite501\Mobile\Server\Sample\Sample11 functioning using my installation parameters. I had a very difficult time of it because (1) the sample11 code fails to open an jdbc connection to the Mobile Server Repository Schema with the function Consolidator.OpenConnection, and (2) the ResourceManager function openConnection will not work unless the Webtogo.ora file is in the current working directory. The ConsolidatorManager function OpenConnection may also not work unless the Webtogo.ora file is in the current working directory, but I did test the hypothesis. Both of these problems need to be addressed in the sample11 code, and documentation to save other software developers from wasting hours of their valuable time. See line 223, 386, and 448 in the Publish.Java code that follows this problem description.
With the above two problems resolved, I can now programmatically create publications, but no hints on how to programmatically remove a publication exist in the documentation. The application I am developing will require the dynamic creation, and removal of publications. Also, when developing applications the complete removal of a publication is absolutely necessary when you have botched a publication. Thus my first question is What sequence of ResourceManager, and ConsolidatorManager function calls will completely remove a Publication?.
I also have two issues remaining with the code that I have so far developed. These issues will most likely be resolved, when I obtain instructions on how to completely remove a publication, and associated users. But, perhaps not. Referencing the Publish.java file that follows this problem description,
1. The ResourceManager function dropUser does not drop a user. See my comments, and code beginning at line 277 in Publish.java. Do I need to de-instantiate all subscriptions, and unsubscribe all subscription users before calling this function.? I think, I tried the de-instantiate, unsubscribe sequence without success, but in the confusion I may not have made the try.
2. How do I get rid of an index created with the ConsolidatorManager function DropPublicationItemIndex?. My comments on this problem begin at line 522 in Publish.java. For some reason the DropPublicationItemIndex function call made below line 448 does not work. What function calls are required prior to calling the DropPublicationItemIndex function?
Throughout the Publish.java code, I have made comments about some of the problems that I have had in getting the sample11 code working for my installation parameters. I think these comments should help the programmers maintaining the ResourceManager, and ConsolidatorManager code improve the stability of the programs. Please pass these comments, and attached files to the appropriate individuals,
if you are in a position to do so.
The other files that follow the Publish.java code are
1. Compile.bat - Compiles Publish.java using j2sdk1.4.0.
2. Run.bat - Executes Publish using \ j2sdk1.4.0\jre\server\jvm.dll.
3. Webtogo.ora
4. tnsnames.ora for the Mobile Server.
5. tnsnames.ora for the Database.
Feel free to access my server if you need to do so in resolving my problems. The parameters you will need to gain access can be found at the top of Publish.java, and in the included *.ora files.
Thanks,

End Database tnsnames.ora fileDear Oracle technical representative, or user:
I need to programmatically create, and remove publications using the pure JAVA classes of Consolidator, ConsolidatorManager, and ResourceManager for the Mobile Server in OracleLite 9i Release 5.0.1. On the creation side I have managed to get the example found in the directory OraLite501\Mobile\Server\Sample\Sample11 functioning using my installation parameters. I had a very difficult time of it because (1) the sample11 code fails to open an jdbc connection to the Mobile Server Repository Schema with the function Consolidator.OpenConnection, and (2) the ResourceManager function openConnection will not work unless the Webtogo.ora file is in the current working directory. The ConsolidatorManager function OpenConnection may also not work unless the Webtogo.ora file is in the current working directory, but I did test the hypothesis. Both of these problems need to be addressed in the sample11 code, and documentation to save other software developers from wasting hours of their valuable time. See line 223, 386, and 448 in the Publish.Java code that follows this problem description.
With the above two problems resolved, I can now programmatically create publications, but no hints on how to programmatically remove a publication exist in the documentation. The application I am developing will require the dynamic creation, and removal of publications. Also, when developing applications the complete removal of a publication is absolutely necessary when you have botched a publication. Thus my first question is What sequence of ResourceManager, and ConsolidatorManager function calls will completely remove a Publication?.
I also have two issues remaining with the code that I have so far developed. These issues will most likely be resolved, when I obtain instructions on how to completely remove a publication, and associated users. But, perhaps not. Referencing the Publish.java file that follows this problem description,
1. The ResourceManager function dropUser does not drop a user. See my comments, and code beginning at line 277 in Publish.java. Do I need to de-instantiate all subscriptions, and unsubscribe all subscription users before calling this function.? I think, I tried the de-instantiate, unsubscribe sequence without success, but in the confusion I may not have made the try.
2. How do I get rid of an index created with the ConsolidatorManager function DropPublicationItemIndex?. My comments on this problem begin at line 522 in Publish.java. For some reason the DropPublicationItemIndex function call made below line 448 does not work. What function calls are required prior to calling the DropPublicationItemIndex function?
Throughout the Publish.java code, I have made comments about some of the problems that I have had in getting the sample11 code working for my installation parameters. I think these comments should help the programmers maintaining the ResourceManager, and ConsolidatorManager code improve the stability of the programs. Please pass these comments, and attached files to the appropriate individuals,
if you are in a position to do so.
The other files that follow the Publish.java code are
1. Compile.bat - Compiles Publish.java using j2sdk1.4.0.
2. Run.bat - Executes Publish using \ j2sdk1.4.0\jre\server\jvm.dll.
3. Webtogo.ora
4. tnsnames.ora for the Mobile Server.
5. tnsnames.ora for the Database.
Feel free to access my server if you need to do so in resolving my problems. The parameters you will need to gain access can be found at the top of Publish.java, and in the included *.ora files.
Thanks,
Thomas G. Matney

Question on iCloud accounts: I have my iPhone and iPad on one iCloud account, but my Mac is on my old Mobile me account. Can't figure out how to change my iCloud account on my MacBook Pro so all 3 are synced.
First, open System Preferences > MobileMe and log out. Then, open > About this Mac and see Version. If you see 10.5.x or 10.6.x, see > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If your Mac is compatible, upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and purchase OS X Mountain Lion.
When you have upgraded, go to System Preferences > iCloud and follow its steps -
Question on Interface Groups and Mobility
Hi everyone.
I have a small question.
I have two 5508 controllers with 6 Access Points (3 on each controller). The network layout has one AP on one controller, one on the other, 45 degrees and about 100ft apart from each other.
In this layout the clients roam from one AP to the other, one controller to the other, but there are certain times where the client loses connectivity to the network (layer 3). I don't see any disconnect or roaming messages in the controller logs, but the laptop shows a "!" sign in its wireless connection (win 7).
It can take from a few seconds to several minutes for it to get an ip address and connectivity again.
Now, for my setup:
I have 3 interfaces with different VLANs, and an interface group that binds those 3 interfaces together. The interfaces are called the same on both controllers, and the interface group as well.
The wlan number is the same, as the SSID configuration.
The question is:
When the client roams to the other controller, does it retain the same interface/VLAN configuration? I have found documentation stating that when the user roams and the WLC has the same subnet, it goes with no issues, but it doesn't mention interface groups. Could it be that in some handovers the client falls in a different VLAN even when it is in the same interface group?
Thanks in advance for your help.Are these two WLC in same mobility group ? If that is the case clients should not change the IP when they roam from one WLC to another. Even in interface group configuration it should work like this.
Here is sample config I did to test this out (I haven't use interface group, but as per my understanding It should not make any difference).

Verizon iPhone - mobile hotspot and other questions about the data options
I just ordered the Verizon iPhone. Can anyone explain the options here:
1) Unlimited corporate email & Web (business and personal email) vs. Unlimited email and web for smartphones (personal email) - what's the difference?
2) "3G Mobile Hotspot 2GB" - does this mean that there's no way I can share my 3G connection via wifi without paying the extra $20/month?? How about tethering to a single computer (USB, BT, or WiFi) - does that also require this extra option?
3) equipment protection - what's the difference between Extended Warranty, Asurion Wireless Phone Protection, and Total Equipment Coverage?
thanks in advance,
MikeHi
Regarding your #2 question; yes, you must pay $20/mo to use the 3G Hotspot aspect of the iPhone, same as with any of Verizon's phones that offer this feature such as the Droid X, HTC phones, etc. And, there is NO additional charge to tether it to your computer; it's $20/mo regardless. You can still use the iPhone's WiFi feature to search the web which is part of the regular data plan. We're only talking about paying the $20/mo for the "up to 5 devices" jumping on your phone as a hot spot.
I'm an Apple fan, have my MacBook Pro, but my phone is a Droid X. I've been a Verizon member since a year before they became Verizon. Additionally, I am part of the Verizon & Motorola test forum; testing new software updates as they come along.
Something you should know about Verizon's 3G Hot Spot feature; it has issues. Those of us in the Motorola & HTC forums have experienced identical issues with regard to the 3G Hot Spot feature; it disconnects every 2 minutes, even when you are actively surfing the net. Verizon & Motorola Support have been very helpful to provide what they believe are fixes, including: changing the channel, hard resets, clearing cache, etc. It does not work. Most of us believe, this is NOT a Verizon issue, but a phone maker issue.
I also have Verizon's MiFi 2200. It costs $59/mo and is purely a hot spot device; again up to 5 devices. I use it at home, for my lap top and for those who need connectivity. It outperforms the 3G hot spot feature of the Motorola & HTC phones by leaps & bounds, and I suspect it will out perform the 3G hot spot feature on the iPhone. Additionally, you get 5GB of download with the MiFi which Verizon is planning on offering increases to 8GB & 10GB. There is NO plan to increase the 2GB download limitation on the 3G Hot spot of the iPhone & other phones, and anyone who does basic software downloads & pics, knows 2GBS is not a lot space.
So, I would recommend not paying the $20 until this is resolved. If you do, you could pay $39 more for a total of $59/mo for the MiFi, download the software to you home computer & notebook, and end up canceling your home internet service. I did this and have saved $70/mo in my total utilities.
One other important note: Verizon's VZManager Software for their phones & MiFi. If you did pay the $20/mo for the iPhone and decided to tether to your USB port (for power while using) and you were to use the 3G hot spot feature, it will NOT work on 64 Bit computers, regardless if you are using the WiFi feature or directly using VZManager. The MiFi has this same issue. It will only work on 32 Bit when tethered. So, you'd have to reboot your computer to 32 Bit, if you have that ability. On a Macbook Pro, simply restart holding down the "3" & "2" keys.
I have no idea why Verizon can't simply upgrade the firmware, even recent firmware upgrades have not resolved this. Most new computers are 64 Bit now.
Despite this, I use my MiFi 100% untethered and carry my charge cord in my bag as it also works on my Droid, and I presume they may do the same for the iPhone; reduces the need for multiple power cords.
I really looked forward to the 3G feature of the Motorola & HTC phones, but honestly, it's just not there yet; mine was slower than Dial Up, and I'm not kidding. -
