Problems with Apple Configurator and i0S 8

Hello, I am using Apple Configurator to update ipad 4's (30) and sync new apps.  My cart of ipad 4's was update mistakenly in configurator when I forgot to change settings to "never update device".  My question is, why does AC keep "erasing and installing the profile"  and why are pages, numbers, keynote sent back to the cloud to be downloaded.  These apps disappear every time I try to do a simple update of a wireless setting, etc.  If you can guide me that would be helpful

  • Problems with Apple Configurator and app lock.

    Hello Folks!
    I'm using a bunch of iPod Touch of the 4th generation (iOS 6). I locked them in an app with apple configurator 1.1.2. From time to time I get a message: The guided access is not available any more, contact administrator.
    Reconnecting to the maintance laptop solves the problem.
    How can I prevent this?
    Thanks

  • Problems with Apple Configurator

    I've been having trouble with Apple Configurator lately. For reference, the devices are not being supervised. They are just being restored from a backup file with four profiles, and two free applications. The backup file is fairly large - coming in at 12.9GB. Using a Mac Mini with around 150GB of free HD space. I'm using a Bretford tray so I usually try to plug in 10 devices at once. This has worked in the past and have only recently run into problems since the update to Configurator 1.4.2 and/or iOS7. So, I'm able to to run Configurator with 10 devices plugged in (I've since started only plugging in 6) and no matter what I try I cannot get more than 4 devices to successfully complete. And actually about half the time less than 4 actually complete successfully. The error I'm getting is Code 4 and the description just says "unable to restore backup." It takes about an 45 minutes to complete one device and about double that to complete 10. So getting 10 done at once is a huge time saver. When I'm only getting 4 devices completed and many time less than that at almost an hour, it is absolutely maddening. I've tried every combination of restarting and reinstalling Apple Config and still the problem exists. 
    I have a constant stockpile of iPads, Minis, and iTouches coming in so it would be extremely greatful if anyone had any tips or advice.
    Additional questions regaurding Apple Config.
    1. Is there any way to install multiple profiles on multiple devices on the newest version (1.4.2)? It seems like the new version only allows you to install 1 profile on multiple devices or multiple profiles on 1 device.
    2. Everytime a backup fails, Apple Config saves that backup in the MobileSync folder buried in the Containers folder. Each of there backups is almost 13GBs, so I'm having to constantly delete them to conserve HD space inorder to run so many devices at the same time. Is there anyway to prevent this from happening or auto delete failed backup restores?
    I know this is very long winded but I wanted to get as much on my info out there as I could. Anyway, thanks for any help that anyone can provide!

  • Still problems with Apple id and emails after move to iCloud

    Hi,
    After move from MobileMe to iCloud, there are still problems with apple id's and emails.
    I'm trying to delete a mail (email1) from one apple id, but nothing happens?
    And when i'm trying to add a email (email2), that i Know isn't linked to another apple id, i get the message that it is already in use with another apple id?
    It's a problem when you use these emails with facetime, imessage etc ...

    My iPhone 5 and 4 both are having no trouble connecting to the Apple store, but my iPad (4th Gen) cannot either connect to Apple store, nor stream music using iTunes Radio.  Keeps asking for my Apple ID and password.  When I put it in, it says that I cannot connect.  If I put it in wrong, it tells me its wrong.  Tried changing my password on my desktop PC. The iPhones handled change and continued to connect, but iPad is unable to connect still.
    Any solutions would be appreciated.

  • I am problems with Apple TV and iTunes streaming

    When streaming a movie via AirPlay to my Apple TV 2 from iTunes on my mac the Apple TV keeps either loosing the homesharing or just stops playing and goes back to the main menu. It does it weather sending from the mac to Apple TV or pulling from Apple TV and the same via Ethernet or wifi. Wifi begins streaming quickly but Ethernet can take ages befor streaming begins.
    I can use airplay on my iPad fine to watch movies off of the mac and also to send to the Apple TV. Plex works great when using the mac as a server. i stream the movie from the plex server via the plex app on the iPad and then sending to Apple TV via AirPlay.
    The problem only seems to be with the Apple TV/ iTunes combo.
    Thanks in advance for any help. Been driving me crazy for days.

    thanks but I have not upgraded to Yosemite. I have Lion 10.7.5
    And like I said it a previous post took the machine to Apple Genuis and he said it was good to go!
    Thank You

  • Problems with Apple Mail and SSL SMTP

    All of a sudden I'm having trouble sending mail through SMTP when using SSL on port 465.
    No other mail clients (Outlook, Thunderbird, Entourage) have the problem.
    It was working then quit.
    I'm scratching my head. Any ideas?
    Regards,
    Rob

    Try using a different use account on your computer. If that works, then you know it is a problem with some config files. If so, then move /Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist to your Desktop. Restart mail and put in settings. Ideally, it should then work. Good luck!

  • HT201192 Problem with Apple configurator 1.7

    Apple Configurator 1.7 does not run after multiple reinstalls and restarts of the computer.  I am using OS X Yosemite and seem to have all
    the updates and everything.  Whenever I try to use apple configurator it spits back message saying  " SSL error  -  could not refresh ios update catalog"
    What to do about this problem?  How to make this software work?

    I'm rather new to Configurator so I have a question for clarification.  By saying that "the image does not get restored" would that include the folder organization for apps?  I had several iPads go into recovery mode during the iOS 8.1 update.  I had to reset them one by one in iTunes and then I used Configurator to restore the backup from our master iPad.  When the process was done the general settings were there but none of the folders appeared.  The apps were just on the Home Screen as separate entities.  I had to re-do all of the folders for each individual iPad. This did not happen in Configurator 1.6.
    I saw a suggestion elsewhere that if folders do not carry over one can simply tell other users to use Spotlight Search.  However, I'd like to have the option of making folders on the master iPad and pushing it out to other iPads via the backup.
    Please let me know if you hear of the bug being fixed.  Thanks!

  • Problems with Apple Mail and Gmail

    Hiya
    I'm keen to integrate my Gmail Account with Apple Mail via POP3, however having followed the instructions given by Google - it doesn't seem to work correctly?

    Hi,
    I want to setup gmail as the default email.I've tried almost everything..google notifier, don't like to have gmail inbox in my mac apps inbox ( I could do that successfuly ).I hate it actually that I have to use entourage to send photos first to my gmail and then forward to friends.There is nothing wrong with mac mail or entourage but I just love my gmail...help please!
    Apple needs to fix two things to make their mail more popular ( infact the features are great especially with new iLife'08 ) : one , mac mail should be free like all major email services ( I'll be happy with 4GB free space rather than 10GB which they are offering now with subscription ) and second they should create userfriendly environment to use any email ids as default.
    Thx

  • Turn off an iPod configured with Apple Configurator and in supervise mode locked to one application.

    I have configured an iPod touch using the Apple configurator. The iPod is set in supervisor mode and I have configured it to start one of our own apps. It works ok. But I can't turn off the iPod holding the on/off button as usual. I dont get the turn off slider. I can only turn the display off by clicking on the on/off button.
    I want to be able to turn it off completely to save battery.

    I wouldn't suggest going to get it yourself. You could find yourself in a situation you cannot get out of and could get hurt. Second, as stated before, it is more for misplaced or lost devices, not stolen devices. Many police agencies do not feel they have probable cause, just from your statement on a map location to justify attempts to recover the device. There have been many posts from others who have had devices stolen where the police will not confront someone based on that map location. I understand you are impacted by the theft, but this is what we have insurance for. To protect your content, from now on I suggest you put a passcode on the device. I hope you have changed all of the passwords for accounts you had on the device, since all of your content and data was accessible to the thief.

  • Installati​on Problems with Apple MBA and OfficeJet Pro 8600 All-in-One

    I've had no issues with 8600 and MBA on my home network for over a year.  Today, the computer couldn't find the printer repeatedly without rebooting the printer everytime I sent a print job.  Got frustrated and thought I'd uninstall the printer and redownload and reinstall, so I did that.  HP sent the Mavericks 12.34.37.dmg file and I installed with no issues.  But it didn't open the Utility file like it said it would, so I opened it and clicked 'set up new device' to which it never found the printer at all.  Searching the HP site, I also found and downloaded and installed the HP PrintersDriver 3.0.dmg and still have the same problems.  My other computers in the house are finding the same printer and printing fine.  My MBA has no printer installed now, and the Utility software can't find it.  What do I do?  I need to be printing right now, and have never had issues like this before.  My printer serical number is [edited Serial Number by Moderator].  Please give me some direction and hope.
    Thank you.

    Hi @MacBimmer ,
    I see that you are experiencing issues adding the printer over the wireless network back onto Yosemite. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    Power cycle the router and restart the Mac and printer.
    Follow these steps to Verify and Repair the Disk Permissions.
    On the Apple menu bar, click Go, then click Utilities.
    From the sub menu on the right, double-click Disk Utility .
    From the list on the left, select your drive or active partition.
    Click the First Aid tab, then click Verify then Repair Disk Permissions.
    Restart your computer.
    Reset The Printing System:
    Note: This will delete all the printers listed and you will have to add them back in again.
    Go to the Apple, System Preferences, Printers and Scanners, hold down the control button on the keyboard and click your mouse in the white area on the left side of the window, select Reset Printing System when it comes up and put in the Mac password. Then click the + sign, select the printer,  then click on the add button. (you might have to click on the dropdown to select the printer name from the list)
    If you are having network issues, then add the printer through the IP Protocal.
    After clicking the + button, select the IP across the top, type in the printer's IPv4 address, select jet direct below and then Apply.
    Test the printer.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • Problem with Apple Mail and GMail

    Can anyone help me with the following problem. I use Apple Mail as my client and GMail iMap as my server. When I create mails I often get a problem (I think caused by the trackpad) where the mouse jumps and I seem to generate a spurious draft email. The result is that I have a mailbox called "All Mail" in the Mail sidebar which contains over 10,000 messages, even though I only have a few hundred real messages (inbox, sent and spam) and my drafts folder is empty. In this mailbox there are numerous versions of the same emails saved during the creation of the email, all slightly different. I just don't understand what is going on.

    Hi There
    For Gmail setup using apple mail use this guide
    http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13275
    POP access on yahoo accounts is not free. A yahoo mail plus account is needed.
    As far as I am aware Hotmail does not allow any POP access at all. I couldn't find any specific information on POP access in Hotmail's help site.
    Hope this helps

  • Problem with Apple Mail and comcast addresses

    Sometimes Apple Mail will not let me send to comcast.net addresses, including my own.  I get the message: "Cannot send message using the server smtp.comcast.net:[my e-mail address] All other e-mails sends and receives fine. I'm using 10.6.7. What to do?

    Thanks, R.  Actually, in the current instance, I realized the message would not send simply because it was addressed to an invalid address - I corrected the address and it went out fine, but I wish the program would have told me that was the problem instead of sending me on a wild goose chase about possible server or account setting problems. 
    I'm still not sure whether this was the case the previous time I had the problem, a day or so, when I was sending a message to multiple addresses (25 or so). There is little way for me to know which of those addresses is or may be invalid.

    Intermittent is strange for sure, does it not sometimes work on gMail too?
