Offline Access and Wireless synchronization

We are looking at several different platforms for a mobile application to compliment our existing Oracle application (currently migrating to 10g backend and 10g Forms frontend).
Our two basic requirements are that we can
1) have offline (local on the device) access to our data
2) be able to sync via a wireless connection (wifi, gprs, etc)
Outside of those two requirements, we just want a visually rich application. We are initially (and potentially only) targeting Windows Mobile (PocketPC) devices. I am unfamiliar with the mobile development kit (MDK) and what all it accomplishes, so any insight (or links) would be greatly appreciated.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how best to accomplish this task? We are still in the preliminary stages of research, so any and all feedback is welcomed.

We just implemented a system using oracle lite as offline database. Our client sycn using wifi, DSL, Cable Modem etc etc... no issues there.
Oracle Lite will meet both of your requirements. However it does not provide you a rich GUI developing facility. So You have to build ALL your screens using some other tool.
MDK primarily consists of 2 tools:
1) MDW : Mobile Database Workbench (Used for creating.testing Data sync functionalities)
2) Packaging Wizard: Used for Packaging an application along with the database and deploy it in the Mobile Server to be published.
Good luck on your research.

Radius for 802.1x; Remote Access and Wireless authentication

Looking to use a single Radius platform for authenticating Remote, wired and wireless users and machines. Anyone with some experience with that use to share some lessons learns...

Hello Richard,
there is a previous post from a user who wants to add authentication to his Cisco ACS Radius server for wireless clients, it might be worth contacting that user to see how he resolved this...here is the link to the thread:

Can anyone suggest an international GPS nav app that offers map and POI downloads for offline access and route search?

I'm going to be in the UK with an American phone, don't expect mobile data, and I'd like to use this app instead of the £30 up charge for a rental GPS... I've seen the free Navfree and the cheap as free MotionX Drive, but have read Navfree has some spotty routing and MotionX won't allow regional (or even whole city, ftm) map downloads.

At $90 for the UK maps this is a too pricey for the use case. In case it wasn't clear, I'm visiting the UK short term so I shouldn't spend more than the £30 to hire a GPS nav system.
Thanks for the suggestion! Any other ideas?

My account was accessed and unauthorized changes made by We R Wireless

I recently became a ware of a very serious issue and have been getting little assistance from Verizon. My account was password protected and had only 3 people identified as having the ability to make changes on my account. I received a notice from Verizon regarding a change made on one of my lines. Upon review it was an unauthorized change to add "Total Mobile Protection" to one of my lines for $9.00 a month. Also in this notice was a credit which I was entitled to for a $10.00 Active Promotion. I believe this credit was placed on the account so that the change might slip by unnoticed. When I looked into the change it was made by a Representative from We R Wireless in Ship Bottom NJ. I have never been to this store nor have I spoken with anyone ever at this store.
After calling the store and confirming my account was accessed and unauthorized changes made, I was told by the manager that an employee had in fact accessed my account and made those changes. I still could not understand how it was possible for the changes to have been made without my password. The activity certainly looked very suspicious and I figured it had to do with commission to the representative for adding the insurance plan. This was denied multiple times by the manager of the store as well as the District Manager. In the meantime I had received multiple emails from We R Wireless in their attempts to "Make this go away"
What came next was the most disturbing and upsetting part of this situation. I was told by the District Manager of WE R Wireless that my information they had collected years ago during a purchase of a phone and activation INCLUDING MY PASSWORD and that they had kept it in their system!!
WE R Wireless had shared my personally identifiable information and Password to my account with Sales representatives at the Ship Bottom WE R Wireless store and that was how they accessed my account!!
As you can imagine I have now been receiving multiple calls from The Director of Retail Operations, Musafa as well as the Director of Operations, Jimmy. They are attempting to sweep this under the carpet and it is inexcusable and unacceptable. The reason for this post is to WARN others who may have made purchases at anytime at a We R Wireless store that they KEEP YOUR PASSWORD and employees are given the Passwords and have made changes to accounts. I cannot believe that I am the only one that this has happened to and I am concerned this is a widespread breech and more importantly is ILLEGAL.
I will keep this Board updated with developments but can tell you so far Verizon has not been very responsive to my concerns but this is unacceptable and I am thinking of contacting the FCC as well as an Attorney. In this day and age of Identity Theft this situation must be addressed by Verizon whether or not this was one rogue employee or not our PASSWORDS and other Information should never be shared nor kept without our knowledge.

I can only tell you that the Verizon rep from the Fraud department as well as Verizon's legal department contacted me and said under no circumstances are these companies to retain Customer Passwords. As you can see look at the potential for issues as evident in this situation.
As far as the FCC and their responsibilities this is directly from the website
The Federal Communications Commission regulates interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite and cable in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories. An independent U.S. government agency overseen by Congress, the commission is the United States' primary authority for communications law, regulation and technological innovation. In its work facing economic opportunities and challenges associated with rapidly evolving advances in global communications
The agency investigates consumer issues such as Cramming which has occurred here if you go to the site you will see some of the recent fines for cramming levied by the FCC and it is a huge issue. A consumer does not get involved in legal fees the FCC is responsible to investigate consumer claims of fraud and regulates the industry. The Attorney General also takes this very seriously as well.
Cramming - Unauthorized Charges on Your Phone Bill
Cramming Settlement for Consumers Announced
Dec. 19, 2014: The FCC, along with the FTC and state attorneys general, announced a $90 million settlement with T-Mobile regarding unauthorized charges - commonly known as "cramming" - on phone bills.
Current and former T-Mobile wireless customers should review their bills and apply for refunds if they suspect third party charges were wrongly added to their bills at www.t-mobilerefund.com/

Wireless Synchronization of Calendar, tasks and memos

I'm a first-time user of a new Blackberry Curve 8310. I've installed the software and completed a wired-synchronization to my computer. Now, I want to set the device so that it synchronizes wirelessly.
I've followed the instructions that say Calendar>Menu>Options> but there is not a "Wireless Synchronization" field to select.
Can this be done on this device? If yes....what am I missing?
Thanks

In the DeskTop software program I use (4.5) in the upper right hand corner of the main screen is options, it contains connection options. Other than USB it does offer Bluetooth. I don't have any other options. If you look in the Blackberry Device manager it lists Com ports, USB and Bluetooth. Again, that's the only options I see.
What type of Calendar/contacts program are you using? Google offers a sync option.
Please let me know!

How to create guest access in wireless by WISM and WCS and ACS?

dear sir
i neeed to know the steps of how we can make guest access to our network like hotels by using our WISM v 7.0.220 and wireless control system and ACS ?

You need to define your requirements a little bit. The WLC can do WebAuth and an employee can access either the WLC or WCS to put in the username and password credentials, but you would need to figure out what's best for you.
Here is a support doc that you can reference.

Out of the blue, my ITouch is unable to access my wireless network ONLY when my PC has been turned on (PC is connected via Ethernet cable, and has no wireless capability as far as I know). What gives? It works fine when the PC is off.

Out of the blue, my ITouch is unable to access my wireless network ONLY when my PC is on (the PC is connected via Ethernet cable, and has no wireless capabilities that I know of). What gives? When the PC is turned off, everything is totally fine. I\m stumped.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
I suspect a problem with your router. Try changing the security. First use no security as a test.
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Can iPod wirelessly access and display any other shared media?

Hi,
Was wondering, is there any way my iPod could wirelessly access, and view a local, shared iPhoto library?
Or if i wanted to stream a video from my shared iTunes library to my iPod, is this possible without syncing?
'Why would i want to do this?' is a good question. Dumb questions, maybe, but just curious.
Thanks,
c

There are apps like Document and FileViewer that allow you to access files on a local computer via wifi. I think there are streaming programs for the iPod but I only know those for the iPad.

My AirPort Extreme will only let me have one device on the wifi at a time. How do i put multiple computers, phones, and wireless devices on my wifi network at the same time?

I have a Macbook Pro and it works perfectly fine on my AirPort extreem until I try and put a different computer, ipod, or phone on the wireless. When I try and put more than one device on the network only one device will receive internet access and the other(s) will get a message saying it is because of a shared ip address. Is there a way to change it so they can all share an ip address? Please help me configure my wifi and devices so that I can use more than one device on the wifi at a time.
Thanks!

Hmm... Those two screen shot disagree. the first shows that the duplication was on 192.168.1.64, while the second showed you were using 192.168.1.63. That confuses matters further.
From the screen that you show, click on the "Advanced..." button in the lower right, then the "TCP/IP" tab.
SHow us a shot of the screen or copy the text from the "Configure IPv4" line and the three under that (IPv4 Address, Subnet Mask, and Router).
Then launch AirPort Utility.
If you have one of the old 5.6.x versions:
* Click on the icon for your Extreme.
* Click on the "Manual Setup" button and supply the password if needed.
* Click on the "Internet" icon at the top.
* Click on the "DHCP" tab.
* Give us a screen shot or transcribe the results.
If you have AirPort Utility 6.2 (the latest):
* Click on the icon for your Extreme.
* Click on the "Edit" button in the balloon that pops up, supply the password if needed.
* Click on the "Network" tab.
* Give us a screen shot or transcribe the results.

New MBP logic board and wireless internet does not work anymore

hi there
i had to change the logic board in my only 2 years old MBP15". i purchased a new one and put it in by myself (relatively easy task). i still use the same internal HD as this one still works fine, so all data are the same.
however, the new logic board has obviously a different "identity" from my old one, it came with a sticker which says "ethernet ID 001FF3513E7A" which is different from before. this may be the reason i can still access my wireless network at home, but the self assigned IP address prevents me from connecting to the internet. all settings are as before and it worked always without a problem.
all settings were "automatic" before (using DHCP), and i use exactly the same settings again, but no success. i have to add that i use a new mac mini in the same network with absolutely identical settings (automatic) and this one receives a free IP address from the router (which is only in the last number different from the router's), but the MBP shows a totally different IP address.
i could finally fix it switching to "manual" and adding the same IP address the mini is using and just changed the last number, which has to be different from the time capsule i use as wireless device and the mini. like this everything works just fine.
but why does the mac mini perform everything automatic and the MBP (even with the new ethernet ID - and especially since i connect wireless and not using ethernet) is not able to do so?
i worry if i want to use the internet in any wifi hot spot i may run into troubles...
any idea what the difference between these two machines (with identical settings) is?
thanks and cheers
george

Wired and wireless computers on the same network?

Here’s the scenario: I’ve got Verizon FIOS which comes with a modem with four Ethernet ports. I have an Airport Extreme plugged into the modem. There are six macs in the house (three desktops and three laptops) and they can all connect wirelessly although the signal fades in the living room and in my son’s room. I decided to run an Ethernet cable from the modem to the G5 that is in the living room and another one to my son’s room. Everything works fine but the “wired” computers are now no longer on the same network.
(At first I thought it was neat: if I was near the G5 and the signal from the Airport Extreme was weak, I could just hop onto the G5’s network (which has “Internet sharing” via airport enabled) but it’s become a nuisance because we always seem to be needing to change from one network to another: The computer connected to the printers is on Airport Extreme so I can’t print from the G5 unless I change the settings; if we’re in the bedroom connected to the Internet via the AirPort Extreme, we can’t access our iTunes music from the G5 without switching networks.)
I don’t know if there is a solution but it seems there should be.
I’d like to have two computers hard-wired and have all of them be part of the same home network. Is that possible?

The solution is simple. Configure the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) so that the option to distribute IP addresses is DISABLED.
This will disable the AEBS's DHCP server and NAT. The net effect will be that anything connected to the AEBS's WAN port (anything connected to Verizon's router's LAN ports like your Ethernet computers) on the same subnet as the AEBS's LAN and wireless clients.

Sharing iTunes between wired and wireless Macs

Hi,
I have a Mac laptop connected wirelessly to an Airport Express -- which is wired to a desktop Mac Mini. I'm trying to share music but cannot. I've done all the proper settings in the iTunes preferences and the same in System Preferences -- I think -- on both computers, but on neither computer is anything showing in the Sources window. It says that there are no users online.
Is there something in the System Preferences box that I'm missing? Should I turn the firewall off (I shouldn't need to, since I've checked the iTunes Sharing box)? Is the main problem here that you can't share music between a wired and wireless computer? (This would be a bit strange to me, but you never know.)
One other thing. I was trying out the network and I can only get access to the wired Mini's Public folder as a Guest, not as a Registered User. Is there something very badly wrong here?
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Thanks for the rapid response. All of those preferences, however, are already set properly (i.e., as you said) on both computers. When I try to go to the Network, I can access the wired desktop Mini's hard drive, but when I try to do it on the mini to get into the laptop's it can't find the afp. It just keeps searching but then says it doesn't exist. Not sure if this network-connectivity problem is relevant or not for this particular issue of iTunes sharing. Grateful for any advice.

Notebook using Vista and wireless print server and HP5500 printer problem

Installed std vista local driver for hp5550 printer with usb cable direct to printer. Works ok
Then, disconnected usb copper line to HP labtop and connected it into print server in router (D-link router to HP5500 printer).
Installed wireless network driver in labtop (vista os)(no updated hp driver available for Vista on HP site).
Print jobs just stack up in the que.
Used 192.168.0.1 address (which works fine for my other old win 98 computer).
Driver using the "raw" setting not "LPT"
Print Sharing is enabled.
Any suggestions?
p.s. The wirless system works fine on an old windows 98SE computer using the original 5550 installation disk.

Went back and installed the "Windows 2000 Print Server Software (from D-link Router 824vpn). I assume that this included the USP Shareport program that was recommend in a thread. I can now access router wirelessly. However, wireless print jobs go into que for hp5550, que emptys, but printer does not start up. Copper usb from printer to computer works fine (as separate printer)sta. Using HPdeskjet 5550 (HPA ) printer, port 192.168.0.1, printer name/ip 192.168.0.1, protocal 9100, raw setting, port 9100, LPR and SNMP are both blank. Any suggestions (OS is Vista). No drivers from Dlink or HP for this application. Thanks

Wired and Wireless Connections to OfficeJet 8620?

We have a small wired Ethernet network. We are planning to install an HP OfficeJet 8620 multi-function printer tomorrow. I understand that for a wired-only Ethernet network, I would just connect the OfficeJet to our router, then install the drivers on each workstation.
Unfortunately, our situation is more complicated than that. Several people want to use wireless devices to print to the OfficeJet 8620. We have a working wireless network in place, and the wireless devices are able to access it without problem..
All devices on the network (wired and wireless) use the same router, which has both wired Ethernet ports and wireless capability. So, everything is on the same network, going through the same router.
From reading the 8620 documentation, it looks like you can only have a wired OR a wireless connection, but not both. Apparently connecting a CAT-5 cable to the Ethernet port on the printer disables the wireless capability of the printer.
If that is correct, what can we do to enable both wired computers and wireless mobile devices to print to the 8620, given the network structure I have described above?
Thanks very much for any assistance you can offer.
This question was solved.
