Problen to convert an AP from IOS to Lightweight

Hi,
I'm try to convert some AP's from IOS to Lightweight using the Ugrade Tool version 3.4 but I get an error. I used a sniffer and I saw that the Upgrade Tools start a tftp copy of a "validate.txt" file from the AP to the PC where it is installed. I don't know what is this file and what it should contain. I don't find any document about it. Can some one tell me how create this file and where put it?
Thamk you in advance
Regards
Giovanni

Hi Leo,
I don't have the print screen of the error, I recieve the message form the Upgrade Tool to check if there is firewall between AP and tftp , but the problem is that the file "validate.txt" in not present so the requestt go in timeout. With the sniffer I see the command from Upgrade Tool (my pc) to AP " copy tftp://(ip address my PC)/validate.txt flash:" The AP send a request for get the file but on the PC that file is not present and I don't know what I have to do.
I try with AP1131,AP1241 and AP1231. The AP and the WLC are on different subnet but connected to the same L3 core switch, the PC where I start the Upgrade Tool is remore.

  • Converting a 1260AP from Autonomous to Lightweight mode

    Is the process for converting 1260 APs to lightweight mode any different from converting 1140s or 1250s? I've converted several APs to LWAP mode but this is my first 1260.  Four 1260s need to be converted.
    I have one in a remote location that seems to be comatose. Here are the steps I took to convert the AP.  Did skip/miss a step?
    1. uploaded code to the AP  ap3g1-rcvk9w8-tar.152-2.JB.tar
    2. configured the AP for DHCP. It successfully leased a DHCP address. Controller information is provided via DHCP Option 43.
    3. saved the configuration
    4. verified the code, successful
    5. disabled wireless radios
    6. installed the lightweight code using the command archive download-sw /safe flash:/ap3g1-rcvk9w8-tar.152-2.JB.tar
         The installation was successful
    7. rebooted the AP
    After that nothing. The AP has not leased another IP address. The switchport is active. The APs MAC address is registering in the switches MAC address table.  The AP is receiveing PoE from the switch. I noticed that this AP is only receiving 6.2W of power where the three are getting anywhere between 8.8W and 9.3W. I am unable to ping the old static IP of the AP too.
    Any suggestions?

    can you console into the AP and post it's boot up cycle?  Let it capture for two reboots of the AP.
    Can you also share the config of the switchport this AP is connected to?
    HTH,

  • I have an AT&T iphone 6 and want to give my AT&T 4 to my wife but she is a Sprint customer.  How involved would it be to convert my 4 from AT&T to Sprint?

    I Have an AT&T iPhone 6 and wants to give my AT&T 4 to my wife but she is a Sprint customer.  Is this possible and, if so, how involved is it to convert my 4 from AT&T to Sprint?

    Likely not possible.
    Sprint is a CDMA carrier which typically do not support BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) .
    You will have to ask Sprint if they can offer service on a unlocked GSM Phone that does not have the CDMA chip.
    Its unlikely they will though.  But if they do, you will need to request AT&T unlock your iPhone so you can insert a Sim card form another carrier into it

    The iPad 1 can't run the newer operating systems. It'd be like trying to play a bluray disc in your 6 year old dvd player....it simply lacks the hardware to make the software run.
    No suggestion about the camera, but given that Apple's attitude seems to be to focus more on the more mobile devices for photography (the iPhone and Touch cameras got features, the iPad and mini didn't), that is highly unlikely. You can tell Apple what you want, but you'd probably be money ahead to get a digital camera.
    as to the photos, anything put on via iTunes has to come off via iTunes.Your main alternative would be to look for photo apps that offer file exchange that may give you more functionality.

  • I can't find a way to preserve app data while upgrade from iOS 3 to 4

    During the weekend I am helping one family member to upgrade the iOS on her iPhone 3G from 3.1 to the latest available, 4.2.1, and I ran into a problem which mades me frustrated.
    Before the upgrade, iTunes warns me "Upgrading to iOS 4.2 will delete all of the apps and media......" and suggest me that I should apply this update on teh compuetr where I syn apps, music, videos, and photos from.
    The problem is, this user has  never sync it with a computer. She had been using this phone for over 2 years, she has 5 pages worth of apps, and of course she would have data in some apps.   She has no problem letting me make my computer as THE computer that her iPhone syncs to, and I even created a new iTunes profile for her, authorized her Apple ID, and transferred her purchase into iTunes.  But when I check "Syn App" on, it tells me that all apps and data on the iPhone will be replaced with the data in the iTunes library. Well, I know what this is about, this is like.. one way overwrite type of sychronization.
    But when I looked over everything again,  it seems like in the iOS3 era, if you don't sync your apps with a computer on day 1 before you start using the phone, you permanately lose the ability to backup the apps' data and restore to another device?  I like to emphasize again that my focus is in data, not apps, I know I could transfer purchases from phone A to iTunes to phone B, it's the inability of backing up data makes me frustrated.
    Do I miss anything here?  Is there still a way I could upgrade this phone from iOS 3 to iOS4, without losing her app data?

    iTunes is required to initially activate the phone. Back when the iPhone 3G was sold, you would take it out of the box and see a "Connect to iTunes" screen. She HAD to connect to a computer in order to begin using the phone. Does she remember what computer this was?

  • Problem upgrading from ios 4.3.5 to ios 6.

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to upgrade my wife's iphone 4 from ios 4.3.5 to ios 6, and I'm getting an error message I can't find a meaning for or a solution to.
    I'm upgrading via iTunes because "over the air" isn't available to go from 4.3.5 to 6.
    I've Synced the phone and taken a backup.
    The download of ios6 works fine, but when I start the update it tries to do its own backup but at that point I get an error message "-5000" which says that the backup cannot be completed and that all information on the phone will be lost if I continue.
    Now, as well as the iTunes backup, I've manually taken a copy of all her pictures/videos, & I know that if the worst happens, I can restore apps from the iTunes store & contacts from Outlook, so that's all OK.
    However she's keen not to lose her message history, so my first question is can I be sure that if we proceeed with the update (and in so doing wipe the phone) that her messages (and contacts) can be restored from the backup?
    The really strange thing is that I've successfully updated my own iPhone 4 and an iPad 2 using the same method without getting this error.
    So my second question is what does this error message mean and what's causing it to happen?
    I've checked all the software (iTunes 10.7 & Windows Vista (yea, I know!)) is up to date. I even tried removing and reinstalling iTunes but to no avail.
    Because of the previous successful upgrades on other devices, I suspect that the problem is a setting on the phone itself, but I can't see any obvious differences between it now an mine before update.
    Anyone got any ideas?
    Apologies for the long post, but I wanted to explain all the things I've tried so far.
    BTW in case you're wondering, she didn't go from 4.3.5 to 5 because of some unexplained "0x" type error at the time, so we lived without it, but having accidentally 'lost' a couple of photos recently we're keen to get her using the iCloud backup in ios6 if nothing else.

    I did, but neglected to come back and update this post.
    It seems to have been an anti-virus software problem.
    The PC I was having the problem on was using Avira, but the one where it worked was using Norton 360.
    I removed Avira and replaced it with Norton, and the update went through fine.
    I've no idea why Avira would cause that problem, but there it is.

    I tried to update my husbands iphone 4 to ios 6 from ios 4.3.3  That is the only update that showed up on itunes as an availiable update.  The download took 3 hrs and after all of that the phone is the same showing no sign of being updated.  We did turn it off and back on and still nothing.  Can anyone please help and tell me what I need to do to update his phone.  He is unable to update or downloaded apps or anything off of itunes at this point.
    Thank you,
    Tammy

    So what happened to the phone during the process?  It should have gone black and restarted a couple of times and there would have been a white progress bar as the update installed.  Sounds to me like you've downloaded the update file but not actually installed it.  The quickest way to see version of the software is installed is to go to Settings-General-About and check Version.

  • How do I update my ipod touch 4g from ios 4.3.5 to ios 6.0.1 without losing my app data(such as my progress in games)

  • Can I search email archive on iCloud server from iOS device, or can I only search what it has downloaded locally?

    Can I search email archive on iCloud server from iOS device, or can I only search what it has downloaded locally?
    I currently have an iPhone and iPad, and am soon changing over to a Mac. When that happen I'd like to try to see what I can migrate over from the Google ecosystem to the iCloud ecosystem.
    1) Currently I have the Gmail iOS app (a webapp container) that can search server-side of several years of email archive.  Can iCloud do this using the iOS native mail application?  Or is the search just limited to what the device has downloaded locally?
    2) Do I have to use a @me.com address for the full iCloud email sync to take place between server, Mac, and iOS devices?
    Believe it or not I've read quite a bit about the iCloud services, but the answers to these questions were far from clear.  Many thanks for the help.

    2)  iCloud only syncs email between .me/.mac addresses.  For other accounts like google, you set up the account in the mail app and if they're IMAP accounts, you can sync between the google server and any devices you have defined that account on.
    I'm not absolutely sure about 1) since I haven't had to search going back years - I use MailSteward for that on the mac.  On my iPhone/iPad, when I go into a mailbox and the emails are not immediately available, it downloads them.  I suspect for a search, you need the emails downloaded.

    how can i convert video files from my mac to watch them on my iphone?, how can i convert video files to watch them on my iphone?

    Turns out the answer to that question changes if you ask it more than 4 times, so ask it again....
    The answer depends on the type of video files you want to convert.  If they are DRM protected commercial videos, no help can be given here.  Google.

  • Is there a way to downgrade from iOS 5.1.1 to iOS 4.1 without any unauthorised modifications (e.g. jailbreaking)?

    I found this piece of information: http://osxdaily.com/2012/06/18/downgrade-ios-6-beta-to-ios-5/ Yes, it's about downgrading from iOS 6 beta, not iOS 6, but the way to downgrade to a previous version of iOS is basically the same.
    I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1.1 and an iPod touch 4 running iOS 5.1.1 as well. None of them is 'jailbroken'. I upgraded my iPod touch to iOS 6 for exploring it a bit more and reverted back to iOS 5.1.1. How? I did it the way stated by the website I mentioned above: just by Option-Clicking the 'Restore' button on iTunes and select the iOS 5.1.1 software. No need to enter recovery mode or DFU mode whatsoever.
    In fact, Apple doesn't allow users to downgrade to a previous version of iOS: 'Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported.' (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694) The reason why I could downgrade from iOS 6 to iOS 5.1.1 may be, as the above website said, 'Typically you can’t downgrade iOS versions so easily, but because Apple is still signing iOS 5.1.1 this allows downgrading to commence with minimal effort.'
    I was wondering whether I could revert all the way from iOS 5.1.1 to iOS 4.1 (the version that was shipped along with the launch of the iPod touch 4 in September 2010). (for experimental purposes)
    I downloaded the iOS 4.1 (a list of iOS software: http://osxdaily.com/2010/10/30/download-ipod-touch-firmware-ipsw/) and tried Option-Clicking when restoring this iOS 4.1 — no luck. iTunes said 'This device is not eligible for the requested build'. And I did a bit of research and found that there are ways to downgrade from iOS 5.1.1 to iOS 4.1, but it seems you have to jailbreak the device, which is complicated and I don't want to do.
    So, is there a way to downgrade from iOS 5.1.1 to iOS 4.1 without any unauthorised modifications (e.g. jailbreaking)? Thanks in advance.

    No, downgrading from any version of iOS to an earlier version is not supported.

  • Just updated my iPhone 4 from IOS 6.1.3 to 7.1.2, I know I am behind the times, but I got there eventually! All seems well but I have one specific problem and hope someone can offer a helpful suggestion.

    Just updated my iPhone 4 from IOS 6.1.3 to 7.1.2, I know I am behind the times, but I got there eventually! All seems well but I have one specific problem and hope someone can offer a helpful suggestion.
    On opening the app "Find my iPhone" I add my password and sign in, to be greeted with a screen that says;
    "Update Find My iPhone. A new version of Find My iPhone is available from the App. Store. You must install the update to continue using the app. Update now"
    On hitting the "Update now" button I'm taken to the relevant page on the App Store, to be told that I cannot update as it needs IOS8 to be able to continue and as my iPhone is only a 4 cannot install IOS8.
    I'm left going around in circles. The only thing would be to delete the app, but looks like I could not re-install the version I would need. Any body have any thoughts or suggestions? (Apart from updating my phone, I have a few months left on the contract!)
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
    Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
    All of your help is much appreciated, thanks
