Resolving ip addresses from an iPad

Hi,
I've been given an iPad 3 (wifi version) for work and I'm having trouble getting it to resolve names correctly.
I've connected it to a wireless access point and I can navigate around our LAN via IP addresses, but we have a number of web products which are licenced via their hostnames.
Is there a way that I can set up some sort of hosts table entries or is there some other form of relating ip addresses to host names within the iPad?
From what I've read on the interweb this can be done by jailbreaking the device, but I really don't want to do that as I need to show clients the functionality and getting them to jailbreak their devices just isn't going to fly.
I imagine that this is something that has come up before but my search results were just a little odd, so if you can point me at another relevant post that would be cool too.
Many thanks
Brendon

A web browser sends the text that was entered in the address bar as part of the HTTP or HTTPS connection, irrespective of the IP address.

If you're running OS X Server as implied by the choice of forum, make certain that your DHCP server for your private network is vending only the address of your own OS X Server DNS server, and that there are no references to any off-LAN DNS servers.
Also verify the contents and configuration of the local DNS server.
Also look at the refers and any rewrite or redirection rules within the Apache setup for the web sites. This for the rewrite and refer settings.
If you reference Google DNS at 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as mentioned earlier, you will get the public IP translations, but — depending on whether your gateway device can "reflect" those references back into your local network via whatever you're using for NAT — you may or may not reach the intended host. You will generally not receive a 192.168.1.0/24 IP address as a translation from a public DNS server.
All that written, if you're running OS X Server, then you need DNS locally, and it's then common to configure the LAN to reference that server for all DNS.

If, when you see the address, you see a white arrow in a blue circle to the right, press that symbol. You would see a "Delete" option at the bottom.

HT204150 Is there a way to delete an email address from an iPad's memory?

I once emailed my boss from my personal .mac email account so that is in his iPad memory. Yesterday he emailed me with a work related request and the email defaulted to my .mac account rather than my work email address. I don't often check my personal email since I'm chained to my office desk. I almost missed this email and that would have been bad for me and my boss' relationship. Can I delete it from his iPad to prevent this from happening going forward?

You can't - it is his ipad. How do you like them apples?
Seriously - you need to tell him that those emails will not reach you on time. The only way to delete those is to restore the ipad (cause they are cashed in) He would be completely craaaaazy to allow you to do that.

Obtain MAC Address from 250 iPads

Hi all,
I have taken delivery of 250 iPads which I am configuring with OSX Server on a MAC Mini. So far, so good!
Our wireless network uses MAC Address authentication so I have to add each MAC Address to our Cisco Wireless controller.
Without having to go to Settings > General > About and write down the MAC Address from every device, is there a way to obtain the MAC Address from either the box using the barcode, or maybe an App that loads up on screen and shows the MAC Address of the device in a barcode format that I can then quickly scan into an Excel spreadsheet and import?
I feel that i'm about to waste a lot of time going on to each iPad and obtaining the MAC Address
Thanks in advance
Regards
Jim

If you have the ability to plug them into Apple Configurator, you can connect them with a USB hub and update and supervise them. This will let you export MAC Addresses and Serial numbers from Configurator to a CSV file that you can use to upload to your wireless controller. If you need to, be sure to Unsupervise the iPads when you are done.
The info you're looking for may also be available through GSX, but I'm not familiar with everything you can use it for on your end.

How to remove an iCloud email address from an iPad

Not sure if this should be here or posted in the iCloud area, but will try here first. I used to have an @me.com address (after the .mac one went away) and now I have the same address, but @icloud.com. When I tap on the "From:" field when composing a message on my iPad, I get the option of using my primary Gmail account, my @icloud.com account, or my @me.com account. I would like to not see the @me.com account be an option as I'm never going to use it. How can I remove that and have the available options include only the @icloud.com account from iCloud?

I don't believe you can. The @icloud address was added as an alias to your @me address, which will remain intact. Messages sent to either address arrive in the same inbox and I don't believe you can delete the @me option. You can, however, choose @icloud as your default rather than @me, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5441.

Apache Server not resolving virtual hostnames from an iPad

I am hosting multiple websites from a single IP address and have come across the following problem. If I access it from my mac, the correct website is displayed, but if I use my iPad the web site is not found and my default website displays instead.
Checking the access log I can see a clear difference between what is passed from a mac and an ipad but don't know how to fix it, any suggestions greatly appreciated.
The Mac sends this
www.parksurgery-hursleyrd-ppg.org.uk 81.138.225.73 - - [03/Oct/2013:00:15:11 +0100] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 4857 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0"
The iPad sends this
www.advtraining.co.uk 192.168.1.73 - - [03/Oct/2013:00:22:03 +0100] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 7847 "http://www.parksurgery-hursleyrd-ppg.org.uk/" "Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 7_0 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/537.51.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/7.0 Mobile/11A465 Safari/9537.53"
the website I am trying to display is www.parksurgery-hursleyrd-ppg.org.uk
I just tried allocating different port numbers to the web site and that has the effect of the iPad displaying the correct website and the mac going to the default.
Any help much appreciated

Resolve internet address from IF_RECIPIENT_BCS?

Hello,
i use the CL_BCS=>SHORT_MESSAGE function for sending an object linked to a mail.
Afterwards I have to resolve and to document the recipient adresses in plain text.
There are several types of adresses like user names and internet adresses.
I am looking for a possibility to get the plain text internet address;
IF_RECIPIENT_BCS=>RESOLVE gives my only a CAM_ADDRES information including a field SO_KEY...
Thanks in advance!

Hi Uwe,
try SO_ADDRESS_GET with your SO_KEY. The exporting parameter ADDRESS (and ADDRESS_STRING) should contain the email-address.
If IF_RECIEPIENT_BCS->RESOLVE fílls the USER structure you'll get the username (USRNAM, SAPNAM, ADRNAME) with SO_USER_WITH_ID_READ.
regards, Karsten

Can I zap email addresses from my IPAD that seem to be stored forever

My manager uses his IPAD daily and update the contacts in MobilMe. When I go into MobilMe and check the contacts they are correct but when my manager produces and email and selects the contact he wants to send it to it will show that person in there with an old work email address, a duplicate new work email address and a personal email address. The personal email address is correct, the old email address does not show up in mobilme anywhere that I can see and the duplicate email address I can't find either.
This happens when he uses his IPAD to create a message and/or his I-phone to create a message.
Currently, we are using Lotus Notes as the email provider.
How can I solve this problem?

You would have to install the messaging software on your computer and then connect via USB to retrieve specific information. Can't remember if that software is compatible with this MiFi model or not, I know its not with the MiFi 4510L.
Otherwise what you see on the MiFi is what you get. Use the menu and navigational buttons to poke around the device.

Delete an email address from an IPAD ID

My Apple ID is associated with 2 emails. Now I want to create another Apple ID with one of the emails. But Apple doesn't allow me because it says that this email address is already associated with another Apple ID. So I have to delete this email from my old Apple ID.
however, after I deleted the email, the error message still shows up. I think this is because Apple system has verified the email with the old Apple ID. How do I delete the email from the old Apple ID in the Apple server?

Hi,
I have an Apple ID that is based on a dial-up account I once had.
It also has a recovery email linked to this.
In addition when iCloud Started I linked it to iCloud and originally got an @me.com ID as well and later an @iCloud.com one as well.
I also have several other Apple IDs (mostly @mac.com com IDs gained for iChat during the MobileMe period) and I have removed the linked/recovery email from these to create new Apple IDs (you do eventually run out of emails to use). So I know it can be done.
However my regular Apple ID is also inked to my posting ID here at Apple Support communities.
I was once able to change the email from the Apple ID one to another for my email notifications but still list another in my Profile for direct contact.
I am not sure which is causing the issue but I find I can't follow the instructions that you are supposed to be able to use to "change" the Apple ID.
I certainly can't make it the @me.com or @icloud.com IDs (it says I can't use another Apple ID when they are in fact already part of this account).
I also see that the Profile here now forces you to use the Email for notifications and not anything else. (this might depend on who and where they are looking).
You can of course use the iForgot site to check if it just happens to be linked to another ID.

It there a way to get the wi-fi mac address from an iPad's serial number

our school seems to have misplaced on of it's iPads. I have the serial number listed, but not the wi-fi mac address. our wireless network displays the wi-fi mac address, so the serial number doe snot help me in this instance.
is it possible to get the devices wi-fi mac address if I only have the serial number available?
the school does not have any iTunes account associated with the iPads since they are configured with the apple configurator and pushed down profiles. using this procedure, it is not necessary for the school to assign an apple ID to them.
is here someone whom I can contact for this information?
any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Strike 2!
Thank you both for your responces.

How do I remove incorrectly entered email addresses from my iPad emails

If an incorrect email address is entered into the address bar it is repeated over & over & often results in non delivery. How do I remove these addresses that do not appear in my contacts.
Thanks
Steve

As far as I know - you can't remove them in the mail app. The mail app inssists on remembering them. You just have to ignore them and eventually they are supposed to move to the bottom of the suggested email list.

HT201269 How do I get my email addresses off my iPad to my iPhone contacts?

How do you transfer email addresses from a iPad to a iPhone?

One way is to sync bot your iPad and iPhone to the same iCloud account with Settings>iCloud>Contacts set to On (if prompted choose Merge). Another is to sync both devices to a supported program such as Outlook or Mac Address Book/Contacts using iTunes. Another is to email them to your phone using an app like My Contacts Backup.
