Meraki MDM vs everyone else
Has anyone here used Meraki's MDM solution? (not wifi)
Website claims the solution is 100% free, even if you were to manage thousands of mobile devices.
Just wondering why then would anyone get something from their competitors, say Citrix XenMobile (former ZenPrise), or AirWatch?
What's the major difference between Meraki, and the others?
What's lacking from the Meraki, that would make people use a paid solution?

I only have experience with Meraki systems amanger, but I can tell you that it is true that it is free and it seems very full featured to me. They even keep adding new features regularly. There is a paid option for support if you want it, but no other charges. I think their idea is to give this away for free and then you wil want to try their wireless, security and switches to further enhance your network management and monitoring. For example, if you use Meraki wireless you can force users to enroll in your systems manager to be managed before connecting to your network. Otherwise you have to manually install or get users to voluntarily install netowrk agents on devices.
A very good solution in my opinion. It works for apple IOS, android, chromebook, windows and OS X by the way, not just mobile. Try it if you have not yet.

When I click on anything in the site I get the message " The page you were looking for doesn't exist." This website works for everyone else, but not on my iPad 2 or iPhone 5. I cleared my cache and history on the iPad, but it still isn't working.
I live in Germany and my credit card is in my native country of Holland .. then it
doesn't accept my credit card.
Your first statement explains the second statement. To use the German iTunes Store, you need to prove that you're a resident of Germany (that is required by the content owners who will not allow cross-border sales) and the only way Apple can provide such a verification is by requiring that you enter in either a German credit card or a German-purchased iTunes prepaid card. Since I presume the former is not a possibility, you'll need to do the latter if you wish to purchase content from the iTunes Store. Again, this is not Apple's choice but is forced on them by the content owners as a requirement for Apple being allowed to sell the content. The EU is working on regulations that would force the content owners to allow access pan-EU, but that's still in the works.
You do not need an iTunes Store account to activate and run your iPad, though; at least, I didn't need one for either of my two iPads. If you only want to set up an account so you can get free iPad apps, take a look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is apparently critical. This seems to come and go, or only apply to App Stores in specific countries, so you may not see the option for "None" when asked for a payment type.
As to the German iTunes Store in English, you can comment to Apple on that via their feedback pages:
http://www.apple.com/feedback
Regards.
P.S. Regarding "this is the only place for a complaint and that will no doubt get removed because
I'm not full of happy joy sparkles.
As stated in the terms of use to which we all agreed, this isn't a complaint forum, it's a technical support forum. You don't have to be full of "happy joy sparkles", but posts that are nothing but complaints may indeed be removed. If you want to complain to Apple, use the feedback pages.

Regarding receiving texts as emails: Can you apply this setting to one individual? I want to continue to receive texts from everyone else except one person!
Don't want to block the person, just have all his texts going directly to my email so that I can maintain a continuous record of his text contacts (rather than remain in text form).
It appears that I must select an option that makes ALL texts go to email, which I'd prefer not doing. -
I have two macs at my house, and multiple iPhones. I want to keep the same apple id as everyone else, but i want to put my own music only on my iPhone. I want to do this with my laptop which is not the family's main iTune's computer.
If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud on each device, yes. However, you can use the same Apple ID for iTunes content on each device, but different Apple ID's for iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, etc., on each device. That way, you can have whatever iTunes content you want on each phone, but keep all of the other data separate. You can create another Apple ID here:
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId?loca lang=en_US
Must be a verified email address. -
No matter where I go, as soon as I turn on the Internet on my new Mac Book Pro, everyone else is no longer able to use the Internet. How can I fix this? I received it as a gift for college, but its hard to do research when everyone constantly yells at me to get off because they can no longer continue what they're doing.
<Edited By Host>" how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?"
You cannot. Copy everything you want form the old computer to the new one, then sync it.
it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
Correct Iphone will sync, or manually manage, with one and only one computer/library at a time. Syncing, or manually managing, to another will indeed erase the current content. -
Ok I don't know why in the world everyone else has access to the App Store and almost anything they want. Guess what I have access to? Yea that's right I have access to nothing that they have! I believe that their iPads are glitching and that might be how they got access to them! I hate how I don't have any access when I don't have access to anything that they have access to! They have almost no restrictions on their iPads and I have all the restrictions that the school sets!
I don't know if you're looking for us to offer a solution to you? We can't. If your school has set restrictions on your iPad, you need to discuss this with your school system admin.

I got a text message this morning informing me that my vzw pix account had been permanently deleted due to 60 days of inactivity. So I searched online to see if there was some way to get my pictures back, since I had very little room to store them on my crap phone I deleted them once they were uploaded. I come to find out that no, there is no way to get them back and also it seems that everyone else in the whole world had 180 days and more than one text message an entire month before their account was deleted. This is ridiculous and I would have preferred that Verizon not offer any storage at all if they just delete everything you save with only one warning that you can easily forget about in a month. I also want to know why everyone else seems to get 180 days of inactivity and I get 60, and why they get multiple messages warning them when I got one.
Hello arlahalvorsen,
I know pictures have great value. I'm sorry to hear your pictures were deleted. As you already know once the pictures have been deleted there is no way to retrieve them. The inactive period for "Free" Multimedia and Messaging accounts has been reduced from 180- to 60-calendar days. Previously, a customer would be sent messages at day 150, 170, and 180 letting them know that their account is inactive and subject to termination at day 180 of inactivity. Now customers receive messages at day 30, 50, and 60-calendar days of inactivity. Thank you.

HT3529 how can i prevent everyone on the group message from seeing everyone else's replies?
how can i prevent everyone on the group message from seeing everyone else's replies?
Thanks! makes sense. When I replied to a message earlier, I noticed I replied to everyone in the group again. so your saying if I create a new thread from the person i want to reply to , the message will only go to that one person? meaning i have to tap the reply bubble from that person to create the new thread?

How does everyone else fit all their Logic stuff into a 2-screen setup?
Logic 8 comes with a beautiful setup for fitting all of the display information in one monitor, but are there any custom fit, default set-ups for a dual monitor set-up? Or do I have to make my own. Any suggestions out there for a work flow as intuitive as the one window interface that locks so well into one full screen's space? I've got two 19" (non-widescreen) Samsung's that I am looking to utilize. How did everyone else set themselves up?
Most of the time I keep an arrange window on one display (full screen), and use the other display for one of the other window types, depending on what I'm doing: piano roll, sample editor, or mixer, typically. I keep the sample editor or piano roll linked to the arrange window so that it gives me a picture of whatever I've selected in the arrange window.
On a few occasions I've found it handy to have two arrange windows, one on each display, with different zoom levels. If I have a bunch of region editing to do, for example, it can be easier to do big navigation moves in the zoomed-out arrange window and detailed stuff in the zoomed-in one.

Workflow not sending email to first reviewer but sends to everyone else
I have a criteria workflow that is working fine except for one small problem. The first person in the workflow does not get notified. If they login and approve, the content continues through the workflow and everyone else is notified. I can even reject it all the way back to the original contributor, and then that contributor sends it on to that first person in the workflow and then they get an email. It's just that initial email when the workflow kicks off doesn't go out.
Nothing showing up in our ECM error logs or email logs. If you look at the workflow info, it says that first person was notified. I've also tried changing who that first person is and what they can/have to do and it makes no difference.
Any suggestions?Is the first person in the Entry Step or the second step of the workflow?

How do I send a group text and not have everyone else get the responses
How do I send a group text and not have everyone else get the responses? Thx
Whether or not everyone gets the response depends solely on the person responding. i.e. you send a group text and i am one of the reciepients. From here i have two options, reply to the group text (everyone gets my reply) or i could text just you on the side (by opeining a new window in messages with just you as the reciepient) and replying to just you. Theres nothing you can do, its up to the person replying whether or not they reply to the entire group or just you seperately.

I give up Mainstage is useless how does everyone else feel?
I'm a working musician and have been using Logic for over 3 years for live performance. Imagine the joy I had last September when I learned that Mainstage was available. I was the first in my town to purchase the upgrade to Logic 8, I quickly installed it, read the manual, did some configuring hoping that mainstage would be the answer I had been waiting for for years.
Well initially I was impressed. There were some problems but I knew Apple would be right on them and a solution would be at hand shortly.
I upgraded to Leopard, had more problems, downloaded all the updates, prokits, etc. etc. had more problems! Called Support, subscribed to all the boards......yada yada yada
Took my Macbook Pro into my dealer got it checked, added more ram, even added a larger internal drive to fit all of Logic 8 on. Bought a cooling desk. Wrote and Apple Script, +*nothing helped*+
It just seemed to get worse
Finally yesterday I had a spare 5 hours so I stripped Leopard off reinstalled Tiger, Logic Studio and the rest of my stuff from scratch believing that the problem was Leopard related, even that didn't work. Mainstage still clicked, popped, puked ..................... pick an adjective.
I've been a loyal Apple customer since 1980 (I had an Apple II Plus) I currently own 3 Macs. I am really disappointed in the support this product has seen from Apple. The loss of faith in this product is apparent by the drop off in messages on all the discussion boards and this is a dangerous thing to a company I believed put it's customers first.
I have decided to give up on Mainstage I will go back to using my synths to play gigs. I feel I have come to the table to try and get Mainstage running unfortunately Apple hasn't

I have voiced my opinion about MainStage since the beginning, thinking that maybe Apple or people who have access to the MainStage developers, would read the posts here and try and get some of these issues resolved.
MainStage is a great program conceptually. Compared to a lot of similar hosting programs out there, it has some nice implementation ideas such as sounds gradually fading out during patch changes so that reverb tails aren't cut off, extensive keyboard splits / layers, etc. and a pretty cool on screen layout for nice feedback during a live gig. There are some things that I wish Apple would have put in the program, like the ability to control external midi hardware.
However, in spite of these great ideas and thoughts, the developers, in my opinion, didn't make sure the program was rock solid as it should be for a live application. If this were a program that you could use and be able to do retakes, make corrections along the way, etc., then these bugs would be accounted for by the user and dealt with. But for a live app, when you are playing in the middle of a song, where you only get one chance to make it right, and the application locks, pops, clicks, etc. in a sporadic and unpredictable fashion, it is absolutely unacceptable.
I agree, most of the people who posted here back in the beginning have stopped because it didn't seem to make any difference. And there is usually a few users who have perfect systems. I have tried various ways to eliminate the unpredictable nature of MainStage but no such luck. Even last night at rehearsal, everthing seemed to be going along fine through the four first songs. I only had about 7 or 8 patches total and my memory usage was at about 30%. Then I change patches so we can start working on song #5. For this song I use a Native Instruments B4 patch (which also was one of two patches used in the previous song I just played). I have used this instrument many times and it has performed very well for the most part except for the occasional CPU spikes. I got about 2/3 of the way through the song and then noticed something ... I had no more sound coming from my instrument. I looked over at my MacBook and to my dismay, it was totally locked up. Needless to say, I wasn't able to finish the song because I had to reboot my machine. I know others may chime in here and ask if I had this configured or that ... and yes I have done all of these ad naseum ... this machine is soley devoted to my music rig, so its not like I am using it for games, word processing and everthing else. The bottom line is, this is another example of how quality control for this app and maybe Leopard in general has gone out the window.
I really like MainStage, I have invested a lot of time setting things up to replace my Logic live rig and have tried to hang in there hoping help would be on the way. I am not even asking for the ability to control external midi equipment (though that would be nice), I would just like to have a dependable piece of software that is made for live use, not just a toy to jam with friends in the Garage. -
in my group text my friend has pink text while everyone else has the standard black text. why is this?
Hi,
You can change it in several ways.
In Messages > Preferences > Viewing you can change your outgoing background (Balloon) colour, which then gives you access to change the Font and it's text colour.
This works Mac to Mac in Messages using any service (iMessages, AIM, Jabber, Bonjour and yahoo).
iMessages users on iOS devices will not see it as it does not do coloured Balloons (the App only colours your outgoing ones to tell you if it is SMS or iMessages but does not send the colour)
You can also change individual IMs or iMessages by using the Format menu (Show Font and Show Colours)
And as Eric says there is the Keyboard/Contextual Menu method.
As lots of yours are "white" I presume this is iMessages on several iPhones and one computer.
iChat (the forerunner to Messages used to attribute random colours to incoming IMs in a group chat so they (people) looked different.

When I receive or make a phone call, I have to hit the speaker phone icon to hear the conversation and so does everyone else around me.
My phone was perfect until I updated to the newest version.
The person making the call can hear me, but I cant' hear them until I push the speakerphone.
Any resolve to this please and thankyou.Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss) -
