Possible fix? Use WPA2 AES

Just read that TKIP WPA2 might be the reason for lockups. I set my router for WPA2 AES instead. *fingers crossed*

Nope. Wake up killed my router again. Another lock up.
Bringing this thing back to a store. I give up.

Unable to change B210a to use WPA2 + AES

I am using a TP-Link router with Mixed NG Mode, Security is WPA2 with AES (not Mixed).
When i try setting up the B210a to connect to the wireless with Setup Assistant, it only shows the Encrption type as WPA PSK for the Wireless network, but it is actually WPA2 personal. So if i go ahead with the settings that are showni see it connects without any issues. However i see it only connects with g speeds. I understand this has Wireless n capablities.
When i try to change the settings from the Embedded Web server interface to WPA2 PSK and AES, the wireless drops and the printer is not connected to the wireless anymore.

Hi,
The specific printer model provide Wireless 802.11b/g connectivity,

Palm Pre & WPA2 AES Wireless Networks

I have a palm pre that I'd like to connect to a campus network that uses WPA2 AES encyption. I have the certificate required for this network already installed on the pre. However, when attempting to login to the network, it does not use the certificate and asks for a username/password. Of course, the logins will not work. Any workaround or is this just not supported?
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Have you tried putting your domain name before the username, i.e. <DOMAIN>\<USERNAME>? e.g.
Username: School\John Doe
Password: **********
If you network is not hidden, you don't even need to specify the security setting. I think it does it automatically when I select a network from the list, at least for me. Good luck!

Possible fix for unable to eject ipod, files are in use by another program

If you get the above message and are using itunes 7, this may be a possible fix. Open itunes and connect your ipod. When you get the main screen, uncheck the box "open itunes when this ipod is connected" and then click apply in the lower right of the screen. After your ipod has finished updating (top of itunes says update complete) you must eject the ipod using the safely remove hardware from your tray in the taskbar. Unplug you ipod, close itunes. Now, open itunes and connect your ipod. After it updates, you should safely remove the ipod. Good luck.
pc Windows XP Pro

Easy way. Reset the iPod, then disconnect when you see the Apple logo.
Another way. Hold ctr-alt-del to bring up the Windows Task Manager. Go to the Processes tab and look for iTunesHelper.exe and iPodService.exe. Select them and hit the End Process button. Close the Windows Task Manager Window and try ejecting the iPod via the safely remove hardware method.
  If you are still having problems you can try one more thing. Right click on the My Computer icon and select Manage from the list of actions. Go to the Services and Applications item and from there the services item. Double click on the services item to bring up the list of services currently installed on your computer. Look for the iPod Service and double click on it. From the new window select Stop. Now try again to eject using the safely remove hardware option.
  If all else fails shut down the computer and disconnect the iPod.

WRT54GX2; WPA2 AES

Windows XP Hot fix has been installed. Intel 2200 b/g driver is updated. WRT54GX2 firmware is updated. (There is no version info on the router, so I assumed it version 1. Accordingly I downloaded firware update for version 1 from the support) When I set AES for security, my laptop (IBM R51) was successfully connected to the wireless network, but couldn't access any website. Any website I tried to connect seemed to be unreachable. Then I changed to TKIP, which solved the problem. I checked with Intel, and the 2200 update supports AES. What else should I check?

When there is no version information on your router, you cannot just assume that it must be version 1.0
I made that mistake once, and after wasting 2 or 3 hours trying to load the wrong firmware, I finally called Linksys. Based on my router's serial number, they told me that I had version 2.0 of the router. This information immediately fixed my problem.
So if your router is not clearly marked with a version number, call Linksys with your model and serial number, and they will tell you what version router you have. Once you are certain of your router's version, make sure you have the latest firmware loaded into the router.
Also, make sure that you do not have any spaces in your password. Some Linksys firmware has not worked properly with spaces in the password. Use a password that contains only capital letters, small letters, and digits.
Also, try using WZC and disabling the Intel wireless card management software, and see if that works any better.
If the above does not lead to a solution to your problem, and allow you to use WPA2 (WPA with AES), then I don't know what else to recommend. Perhaps there is an error in one of your drivers or firmware that is keeping it from working. In any case, WPA with TKIP is considered a good method of encryption, and if you couple it with a strong password, I think that you should be able to sleep well at night.

WLC-4404. WPA2 - AES (L2) - Microsoft IAS- unable to authenticate

Hi am upgrading from EAP - TLS with WEP to WPA2 - AES with smartcard / machine certificates. AAA server is Microsoft IAS. New SSID and config for WPA2 looks straightforward.
Created new policy for this SSID on IAS, again looks straightforward. Unable to authenticate, debug on WLC looks as though not all server to client transactions are taking place , no EAPOL messages etc.
Any ideas?

This mostly occurs due to incompatibility on the client side. Try these steps in order to fix this issue:
Check if the client is Wi-Fi certified for WPA2 and check the configuration of the client for WPA2.
Check the data sheet in order to see if the client Utility supports WPA2. Install any patch released by the vendor to support WPA2. If you use Windows Utility, make sure that you have installed the WPA2 patch from Microsoft in order to support WPA2.
Upgrade the client's Driver and Firmware.
Turn off Aironet extensions on the WLAN.

IPad WiFi works only with WPA/TKIP, not WPA2/AES

My iPad (like so many others) stopped connecting to my Linksys WRT54G router (which like everyone else's connects fine with every other device, including non-iOS 4 iPhones). The whole reset/restart/restore dance with the iPad/router/cable modem was performed to no avail. By sheer desperation, security protocols were changed, and that's what finally worked.
The protocol to the rescue was WPA/TKIP, curiously enough. (When security is completely disabled ("Open"), the iPad also connects, perhaps expectedly.) The culprit is WPA2/AES (even AES+TKIP). Any iteration of WPA2/AES ends up blocking the iPad from getting the appropriate IP address via DHCP. Once I changed to WPA/TKIP, everything's been rock-solid and fast.
(The only times WPA2/AES worked was when the iPad was first used for a couple days, and a couple days after switching back to WPA2/AES when it started working with WPA/TKIP. Since then, switching back to WPA2/AES no longer works, even temporarily.)
Any idea why initially WPA2/AES worked, and then suddenly stopped?

That is a very interesting question ... [involving] the combination of the router and the iPad and their respective implementations of the AES encryption algorithm.

But there have been a number of posts recently about problems with Linksys and Belkin connectivity.
Tell me about it. I'd been pulling my hair out prior to "discovering (by accident," as George Costanza would say) that WPA/TKIP fixed the problem, and seems to be working fine and fast. Now I'm just academically frustrated (better than actually frustrated) wondering why WPA2/AES is so problematic +with this particular trifecta+ (my iPad, my Linksys router, and WPA2/AES).
Bottom line is there is probably not an easy solution ... and since you do have a strong security protocol that works, keep using it. Very strange that there would be a change in connectivity after a few months, though. Old engineering philosophy, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. If you have something that works, stick with it for now.
Actually, WPA2/AES worked on two (short but notable) occasions:
a) for two days when I first unpacked the iPad, and
b) for two days when I switched back to WPA2/AES upon discovering WPA/TKIP fixed the issue.
So it wasn't two months, which makes more sense. I agree with you that I'm not touching this arrangement for now. What I did have to do was change over the other devices (PCs, Wii's, TiVo's) that didn't automatically adjust over to WPA/TKIP. (To its credit, the iPhone did that on the fly.) Going through each device hurt a little, knowing I was using a less-than-optimal protocol for just one cranky device at expense of every other one--but of course I'd rather everything play nice than be necessarily cutting edge. (It's not like I'm the Pentagon or anything here.)
But also give feedback to Apple:

Done and done. And thanks for a great and reassuring explanation.

Is it possible to use old Apple Flat Panel Display (62 watt power adapter) with MacBookPro 13" Mid-2012 running 10.8.4? Tried mini display to VGA cable

Is it possible to use old Apple Flat Panel Display (62 watt power adapter) with a MacBookPro 13" Mid-2012 laptop? Would like to use larger screen when working at home. I have a mini display port to VGA cable and have tried to hook up the old display but it seems not to work. When I try to activate the screen on the old display-- a window comes up in the MacBookPro and asks me if I want to shut down the computer. What little I have read it that the MacBookPro had Thunderbolt and the old display may not be compatible? Any assistance would be appreciated.

11.09.12 22:16:06,148 ClamXavSentry[286]: I will quarantine infected files
This doesn't have anything to do with your problem, but it will likely cause other issues with your e-mail.
Here's my standard recommendation concerting the use of A-V software to deal with potentially infected messages:
Never use ClamXav (or any other A-V software) to move (quarantine) or delete e-mail. It will corrupt the mailbox index which could cause loss of other e-mail and other issues with functions such as searching. It may also leave the original e-mail on your ISP's e-mail server and will be re-downloaded to your hard drive the next time you check for new mail.
So, if you choose to "Scan e-mail content for malware and phishing" in the General Preferences, make sure you do not elect to either Quarantine or Delete infected files.
When possibly infected e-mail files are found:
Right-click/Control-click on either the infection or file name in the ClamXav window.
Select "Reveal In Finder" from the pop-up menu.
When the window opens, double-click on the file to open the message in your e-mail client application.
Read the message and if you agree that it is junk/spam/phishing then use the e-mail client's delete button to delete it (this is especially important when the word "Heuristics" appears in the infection name).
If you disagree and choose to retain the message, return to ClamXav and choose "Exclude From Future Scans" from the pop-up menu.
If this is a g-mail account and those messages continue to show up after you have deleted them in the above manner, you may need to log in to webmail using your browser, go to the "All Mail" folder, find the message(s) and use the delete button there to permanently delete them from the server.
To fix the corrupted mailbox index(es), highlight each one that was corrupted and choose Rebuild from the appropriate menu.

Is it possible to use backup files previously copied to an external hard drive to backup an iPhone?

My sister froze her iPhone by trying to turn it off during a software update (not sure why) and restored it because she thought it would fix it. Unfortunately she unintentionally deleted all of her data and settings. She doesn't use iCloud, so I'm assuming all her files are backed up to her computer when she syncs her iPhone, but using iTunes I can only find two backup points using Edit>Preferences>Devices, both in the past few minutes. I know that each sync overrides the last backup files instead of creating newer ones, so apparently older backup files from her computer can't be used to recover her data. However, we both periodically use an external hard drive to back up our computers by basically dragging and dropping our files onto it, so there is an earlier version of her User folder on the external hard drive. It would definitely be preferable to use the backup files from a few months ago that are on the external hard drive and lose a few photos than to lose years of data, so would it be possible to direct iTunes to those backup files (AppData etc) instead of the ones saved on her computer hard drive? There's not any kind of browse option I can see that could allow me to get iTunes to search for backup files on the external hard drive and I'm not computer savvy enough to manually find the files and connect them to iTunes. Is it even possible to use backup files from an external hard drive? Do I have to replace the ones that exist on her computer now?

Garageband can't use VST plugins.
If you're talking about AUs: you could try to put an alias into the HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components folder instead of the actual files, and see if GB loads them.

Which hp printers use wpa2-psk

My new Netgear R6300 only wants to use wpa2-psk (aes). My old HP printer can not do this security code. Need to get a new HP printer, which one has this level of encription?

Hello, and Welcome to the HP Support Community!
wpa-psk (either AES or TKIP) is pretty standard these days. Looking at my year-old OfficeJet 8600 Pro, it easily supports this method and is the way I have it connected to my home network.
We just installed a newer 8610 at the office, and it had no problems with the wpa/wpa2 encryption scheme either!
I believe you will be safe with any present-day HP printer that offers wireless connectivity.

Unable to connect to Wi-Fi connection using WPA2 PSK authentication and encryption type TKIP

Original Title: TKIP selection in WiFi network settings
I have a workplace WiFi connection using WPA2 PSK authentication and encryption type TKIP.
On the machine I used to test Windows 10, I had a previous installation of Windows 7 professional which connected to my workplace WiFi using the above settings. After installing Windows 10, my workplace wifi settings were imported and worked fine.
Windows 10 had a system crash, and since I had deleted my previous windows installation, I performed a complete reinstall of Windows 7. However, when I went to install Windows 10 again, I had not taken the time to set up my workplace Wifi on Windows
7 before installing Windows 10. As a result, I had to set up my workplace wifi as a new connection in Windows 10.
When going to set up the wifi connection, the encryption type was grayed out, but appeared to default to AES. Searching the internet suggested that Windows 8.1 did not need a encryption type selected, because Windows could automatically determine
if it was TKIP or AES, hence why the option to select encryption type was grayed out. However, after completing the setup of my workplace wifi, Windows 10 could not connect to my workplace wifi. After restoring Windows 7 with a factory reset, and setting up
the workplace wifi (the encryption type selection was not grayed out and I manually selected TKIP encryption), my workplace wifi was working again.

Sync SHARED Outlook calendar with iPhone (possible fix!)

Hey all,
My business uses a shared calendar in Microsoft Outlook 2007. Our personal calendars sync fine. However, the shared calendar does not appear in iTunes.
POSSIBLE FIX: If you create a local copy of the shared calendar by clicking and dragging from Public Folders to Calendar in Outlook, it will appear in iTunes and will sync.
QUESTION: How do I automate this process, so that a local copy is created whenever the shared calendar is updated?

1. Apple has removed sync services in OS X Mavericks. Therefore, you cannot sync Outlook 2011 with Contacts or Calendar.
2. Apple has removed the ability to sync through iTunes in OS X Mavericks, so that, even if you use Contacts and Calendar on the Mac, you can only sync them with your iPhone through iCloud, thus exposing all your contacts and calendar information to the mercies of the Web.
3. Microsoft does not not support CalDAV and CardDAV in Outlook, so there is no way to sync directly through iCloud, except perhaps by setting up a Microsoft Exchange account.
4. Apple makes it extremely difficult (virtually impossible) to revert to a version of OSX that is earlier than OS X Mavericks once Mavericks is installed.
In short, we are screwed and neither company seems to care.

WPA-TKIP WPA2-AES Connection speed

Hi,
My customer uses controller based wireless network. There is a connection speed problem between two SSID's. First SSID uses WPA(TKIP+AES) and WPA2(TKIP+AES) encryption method and dot1x authentication method. Second SSID uses open authentication (this is a guest SSID)
802.11 a/n/ac is enable on WLC and client can connect with these methods. But clients connect to the first SSID with 802.11 b/g (54 Mbps) and connect to the second SSID with 802.11 a/n/ac. Customer wants to know why our clients connect with low speed to first SSID even if a/n/ac is enable.
Sometimes WPA-TKIP encryption methods can reduce the connection speed. Do you have any idea about that and official document about this problem?
Thanks,
Burhan,

TKIP and AES are two different types of encryption that can be used by a Wi-Fi network. TKIP stands for “Temporal Key Integrity Protocol.” It was a stopgap encryption protocol introduced with WPA to replace the very-insecure WEP encryption at the time. TKIP is actually quite similar to WEP encryption. TKIP is no longer considered secure, and is now deprecated. In other words, you shouldn’t be using it.
AES stands for “Advanced Encryption Standard.” This was a more secure encryption protocol introduced with WPA2, which replaced the interim WPA standard. AES isn’t some creaky standard developed specifically for Wi-Fi networks; it’s a serious worldwide encryption standard that’s even been adopted by the US government. For example, when you encrypt a hard drive with TrueCrypt, it can use AES encryption for that. AES is generally considered quite secure, and the main weaknesses would be brute-force attacks (prevented by using a strong passphrase) and security weaknesses in other aspects of WPA2.
The “PSK” in both names stands for “pre-shared key” — the pre-shared key is generally your encryption passphrase. This distinguishes it from WPA-Enterprise, which uses a RADIUS server to hand out unique keys on larger corporate or government Wi-Fi networks.
In summary, TKIP is an older encryption standard used by the old WPA standard. AES is a newer Wi-Fi encryption solution used by the new-and-secure WPA2 standard. In theory, that’s the end of it. But, depending on your router, just choosing WPA2 may not be good enough.
While WPA2 is supposed to use AES for optimal security, it also has the option to use TKIP for backward compatibility with legacy devices. In such a state, devices that support WPA2 will connect with WPA2 and devices that support WPA will connect with WPA. So “WPA2″ doesn’t always mean WPA2-AES. However, on devices without a visible “TKIP” or “AES” option, WPA2 is generally synonymous with WPA2-AES.
WPA and TKIP compatability options can also slow your Wi-Fi network down. Many modern Wi-Fi routers that support 802.11n and newer, faster standards will slow down to 54mbps if you enable WPA or TKIP in their options. They do this to ensure they’re compatible with these older devices.
In comaprison, even 802.11n supports up to 300mbps — but, generally, only if you’re using WPA2 with AES. Theoretically, 802.11ac offers theoretical maximum speeds of 3.46 Gbps under optimum (read: perfect) conditions.
In other words, WPA and TKIP will slow a modern Wi-Fi network down. It’s not all about security!

WPA2\AES and PSK

We have a situation that we need to implement WPA2, AES with PSK on our WLC. If I put a complex passphrase of 63 ASCI characters, how safe is my wireless network? After reading multiple forums, it seems that is quite safe, even if this setup is design for a home or medium office.
Your feedback is very much appreciated.
Thank you.

As far as the security algorithm itself is concerned, a very long, random PSK is extremely secure.
However, there are human factor issues that come into play: that long PSK has to be written down somewhere and that location must be kept secure; the number of people who have access to the key must be limited and all of them must carefully maintain the security of the key; if the key is compromised you must manually change the keys on all clients; etc.
Another issue is that with a PSK you have no way to map a given wireless connection to any individual user, as you would with 802.1X. So if an EAP account is compromised you at least know who to yell at, whereas if your key is compromised you have no clue.
Nobody's going to crack a 63-character passphrase using over-the-air tools. But they won't bother. They'll just find a way to get into your helpdesk office and take a picture of the whiteboard where it's written down.

Is it possible to use xml publisher with xml document as data source ?

I have an application that have to publish document from xml document that are not part a oracle 10g database but will be stored into Oracle Berkeley XML database insteed. Is it possible to use server and/or desktop to publish these documents ?
I test the desktop edition using the source xml document but it render no data when the template is executed (vizualization)
I installed the server edition and i'm not able to declare xml document as a data source
So i have a doubt that xml publisher is able to publish something from a xml datasource
Thanks

Yes, it is possible.
The problem should come from your template. Refer to "edit a RTF template" in the docs.
A fact is that XML Publisher server edition is not very adapted to an XML file datasource. In order to use it, you should use an HTTP datasource, with the URL of your XML document (that you should place on a web server...). The problem is that this URL is fixed and point always on the same reference...so XML Publisher server edition is not very good for that use.
I choose to use the XML Publisher Java API which is better for this task.

Possible fix? Use WPA2 AES
