Nokia N8: Post here apps that use the WLAN to help...

I keep on seeing loads of N8 users who have problems because they keep on getting WLAN connections which causes battery drain. I do not have this problem myself, but I thought it could be useful for everyone who knows of an application wherever from - Ovi Store or another 3rd party download - that automatically connects, to list it in this thread, to help people who are trying to track down these 'ghostly' background battery drainers.
Obvious ones are to set widgets to offline, but after that they often struggle to know what is making the connections.
I WOULD suggest that I update this first post as people add apps, to include the names of all apps that other forum users list, but after a short while you can no longer edit posts - so can I suggest we use the following form for subsequent posts ....?
App Name: ABCDEF
Description of connection activity/symptoms
Whether it can be stopped and if so how.
I'll start
Angry Birds Seasons
The Season's Greetings levels in Angry Birds Seasons require an internet connection when they are launched the first time. The Trick Or Treat levels also included in Angry Birds Seasons game can be played without an internet connection. I think the usage is pretty low.
I noticed this because I have Nokia Labs Situations, and it is set to switch to my Home profile when it is in range of my WLAN. Whilst playing Angry Birds, it keeps switching out of Home profile to General profile and back. I presume, but may be wrong, that it grabs the WLAN to do this, and then Situations lose the WLAN, thinks it is out of range, and exits the Home profile. When Angry Birds has finished its connectivity, it re-acquires the WLAN and switched back to the Home profile again.
Don't think it can be switched off, but usage is so low it is not a problem.
My current phone - Samsung Galaxy Note

It is only listed on the Windows phone and Microsoft Store sites -

http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/Nokia-Lumia-Icon-for-Verizon/productID.295621200
I imagine Verizon won't list it until the 20th, as that is the official release date.

hello, my eyesight issue happens occasionally, from time to time i run multiple apps that use the isight camera. when i close each app the isight camera's green light is still active. When that happens the only way to stop the isight camera is to reboot.
Is there a way to use activity monitor to identify and kill the process controlling the isight? My apologies in advance if this sounds windows (task manager) like.
Thanks

com/kb/HT2411: Your camera can be used by only one application at a time.
(Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD." Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)

Hiss noise from iPad2 speakers when launching an app that uses the speakers

A couple of months ago I bought an iPad2 Wi-Fi. It was working fine until yesterday that it started making a hiss noise every time an app that uses the speakers was launched, for example when the keyboard clicks sound is enabled it will make noise while typing (this is somehow annoying). Is this a known issue?
Is this a hardware defect or can it be fixed with a software upgrade?
Thanks.

i have the same problem: ipad2 makes noise every time when plays sound (music, video, games, typing)
i'm sure that problem is hardware..
the noise exists only with speaker: if i connect headphones noise disappears

Any app that uses the internet quits immediately ater opening, HELP!

Any app that uses internet closes immediately after opening, app crashes. Safari opens fine and can use the internet. iPod software is up-to-date.
iPod Touch 32GB

had this problem for iphone 4... back up your ipod, then restore it and that should fix it
if not then reply again and ill give you a different option

Is anyone aware of an iPad App that uses the screen as a flash for photography?

While pictures taken outdoors with good lighting are acceptable, less can be said for those taken indoors under artificial light. Does anyone know of an app I can use to augment the room light with that from my screen?

IMO, unless the room was nearly dark, I can't imagine the iPad would, even at full brightness, make any significant difference in this application.

HT201304 Can I delete an app that uses the same apple ID but is installed on a different device

How can I remotely uninstall an app on different device? The other device is an iPad 4 but my apple ID was used to make the purchase. I find the content inappropriate for the user.

AFAIK... you need to be in possession of the Device.

Dude, Where's my "Show in Finder"? Whatever the bug is, it seems to affect every app that uses the method. Any thoughts (besides logout/restart)?

Doesn't matter if it's Finder, LaunchBar, Fresh, Spotlight, Path Finder, Tower...you name it: After being logged in awhile (assuming this is a requisite condition), all "show in Finder" functionality fails to work. It's really beginning to (1) make me realize just how much I rely on that feature, and (2) **** me off.
OS X 10.8.2 | 2012 Mac Pro

Me too. Seems endemic from searching around.
Trashing finder prefs and a restart works for awhile.
Fixing permissions and a restart works for a while.
But it comes back.
10.8.2 on three machines - two Mac Pro's and a Retina MBP. All the same problem.

I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device

I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device (iPhone) using debug build. When running with a release build, the result handler is never called (nor is the fault handler called). Viewing the BlazeDS logs in debug mode, the call is received and send back with data. I've narrowed it down to what seems to be a data size issue.
I have targeted one specific data call that returns in the String value a string length of 44kb, which fails in the release build (result or fault handler never called), but the result handler is called as expected in debug build. When I do not populate the String value (in server side Java code) on the object (just set it empty string), the result handler is then called, and the object is returned (release build).
The custom object being returned in the call is a very a simple object, with getters/setters for simple types boolean, int, String, and one org.23c.dom.Document type. This same object type is used on other other RemoteObject calls (different data) and works fine (release and debug builds). I originally was returning as a Document, but, just to make sure this wasn't the problem, changed the value to be returned to a String, just to rule out XML/Dom issues in serialization.
I don't understand 1) why the release build vs. debug build behavior is different for a RemoteObject call, 2) why the calls work in debug build when sending over a somewhat large (but, not unreasonable) amount of data in a String object, but not in release build.
I have't tried to find out exactly where the failure point in size is, but, not sure that's even relevant, since 44kb isn't an unreasonable size to expect.
By turning on the Debug mode in BlazeDS, I can see the object and it's attributes being serialized and everything looks good there. The calls are received and processed appropriately in BlazeDS for both debug and release build testing.
Anyone have an idea on other things to try to debug/resolve this?
Platform testing is BlazeDS 4, Flashbuilder 4.7, Websphere 8 server, iPhone (iOS 7.1.2). Tried using multiple Flex SDK's 4.12 to the latest 4.13, with no change in behavior.
Thanks!

After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList. Changing it to List resolved the problem.
I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid. And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger. Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me.

Hi, we are a small clinic that uses the iPads for therapy. If we purchase an app for one iPad, can all of them download the same app at no additional cost?

Allan was somewhat incomplete in his statement. While technically it would be possible, from a licensing standpoint you need one license for each iPad unless those iPads were all going to be used by the same person (which I think unlikely given your described use). Here are the relevant terms of the iTunes Store agreement (emphasis mine):
"(ii) If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, you may download and sync an App Store Product for use by either (a) a single individual on one or more iOS Devices used by that individual that you own or control or (b) multiple individuals, on a single shared iOS Device you own or control. For example, a single employee may use an App Store Product on both the employee's iPhone and iPad, or multiple students may serially use an App Store Product on a single iPad located at a resource center or library. For the sake of clarity, each iOS Device used serially by multiple users requires a separate license."
So you would legally need to purchase one copy of the app for each iPad, something which would require an iTunes Store account for each iPad. For normal purchases, each iTunes Store account would need an associated credit card or prepaid iTunes card.
The Volume Purchase Plan works similarly - you still need one license and one iTunes Store account for each iPad - but the purchasing is centralized so you don't get billed multiple times. You get one recemption code for each license you purchase. See:

If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds

I am a teacher that uses the iPad in the classroom. I have an itunes account setup for my classroom without a credit card listed. Is there anyway for me to purchase apps to use in the classroom with a Purchase Order?

(Being sarcastic - its because only the US is big or important enough to warrant volume licensing....)
At this time, until Apple decides to release volume licensing structures outside of the US the only solution would be to use your purchase orders with a company that sells the iTunes Vouchers and redeem those.
However - even then its hard to stay on the right side of the EULA when the terms are all couched in reference to "Personal Use"
I have spoken to some developers in the past about educational discounts, or even support for proxies, and wasn't really impressed with their answers. But hey - even Adobe has trouble with proxies and consistent approaches - we can't expect independent developers to be able to match the same capabilities...

Just updated to i0s 5 on my ipad2. Some of the apps that use to be on the ipad are nolonger there. If i go into itunes on my desktop compter they appear there. How do I get them to transferr to my i pad 2?

just upgraded to ios5 on my ipad2. Some of the apps that use to be on the ipad no longer apperar there. They do appear in i tunes on my desktop computer. How to I transferr them back to my ipad2.

IOS5 upgrade wipes your iPad disk. When you re-sync to your computer, you should get all of the apps that are checked under the Apps page in iTunes.

Are you still able to get apps and games that use the 4.2.1 version?

are you still able to get apps and games that use the 4.2.1 verson on a second generation ipod touch?

Yes. To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
