Safari blocked in Dominican Republic. Is there a solution?

I have an iPOD generation1 with iOS 4.2.1 and took it to the Dominican Republic while on vacation. Stayed at the Excellence Resort. While connected to the WiFi network, my email worked, stock app worked and weather app worked. Also, if I selected a web site while in e-mail, that page would pop up in safari, however, all of the functions in safari were greyed out and I could not go to a bookmark or even delete the page. Thought I had a software problem, but as soon as I got back into the USA and connected to a wifi network, Safari instantly became fully functional.
Do other countries block the safari browser? Could it have been the resort? We did not turn on our iPhone4 running iOS 5.01 because of fear of roaming charges. We did take along a Windows7 computer and both IE and Firefox browsers worked OK.
For our next trip, what can we do? Looking at replacing the iPOD with an iPAD, but now concerned obout travels in the Caribbean and Mexico and not being able to use Safari to browse the internet. Is there a list of countries that block Safari?

Hi,
Change the Port to 443.
You have to now hit enter when you have changed it.
I had to turn SSL on first before mine would work (I Turned it off afterwards)

When the update to support LTE will be released for Claro in the Dominican Republic?

Claro in the Dominican Republic has launched LTE (since yesterday) and proceeded to sell or give the 4G LTE Sim cards so the users can have the service. I went over, got my new sim card and inserted in my Iphone 5 (A1428), and said to my self "I'm good to go". Turns out I wasn't. Unfortunately, I could not get it working. I even moved around the city to see where I could get 4G coverage.
When I called customer service to argue about the lack of coverage and to discuss that this may be a scam from the company. The customer service person told me to go to settings>cellular> to toggle Enable LTE, and I replied that I did not have that option. Then the customer service clerk argued that I did not have an updated Device. My iphone 5 IOS version is 7.1.2.
After doing some research while on the phone with the customer service representative (it was a 45 min long call) I had to agree with him that maybe apple has to "released" or "enabled" the service for this specific carrier, just like it happened in Colombia when the LTE was introduced.
Currently there are 3 companies (Tricom, Orange, and now Claro) offering 4G LTE in the Dominican Republic and None are listed in the 4G LTE availability per device per country according to apple. https://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/.
So my question is: When the update to support LTE will be released for Claro in the Dominican Republic? (it would be great if an apple employee could get involve in this thread, or escalated it to who can do something about it.)

FelipeV
Let me tell you something: no one is saying go and do something illegal to enable this feature on your phone and no one is reporting any confidential information; the purpose of this thread is to clarify some points:
The LTE Network for Claro DO is real, is functional and is not a Scam
The LTE Network works with compatible devices except iPhones, not by decision of the carrier but the manufacturer.
About that the date that when will be available is not a confirmed date, it's an estimate based on previous releases in other countries and information that I received from inside Claro, not a speculation (find the definition). Of course Claro hasn't confirmed because, like other says, is apple decisions and not their (you don't have to be a genius to figure that out).
Forums are to express yourself freely about a specific topic, and to give your point of view whether you agree or disagree with something, but when you do be polite and do it with respect and not with arrogance as you just did hinting others are stupid and do not know what they are doing. Take an advice from some one with a little bit of experience, you don't know when you will need some help.
Have a good night.

No GPS lock in the Dominican Republic

I have installed this version of 3.06 on my Nokia 5230 Nuron
ovi_maps_installer_3.06_11wk7_b11_s60_5.0_nocs_beta.sis
which works very well in the USA. I have no data plan with T-mobile so I do not use any internet connectivity to assist the GPS. I went to the Dominican Republic where I had no T-Mobile coverage (and didn't expect to) for 10 days and just got back. Before I left I loaded the DR map onto my phone. I thought that the GPS should work fine there because it doen't require a data plan and it doesn't require any phone coverage. I could never get a GPS lock or even show a GPS signal while there. Am I wrong about what is required for the GPS to work on these phones?
Thanks.

@gregorycharper
There are no holes in GPS satellite coverage, although the number of remaining satellites which could be brought into service in case of failure are now quite depleted.
As farby pointed out if you relying solely on Integrated GPS as a positioning method, it is like starting OVI Maps application for the very first time again and you need to give it sufficient time to lock on to your new location.
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

How to buy CC in Dominican Republic?

Hi, My name is Pablo Lozano and I am head of the Multimedia Department at INTEC, a university in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. We want to purchase Adobe CC in our institution to develop educational related content. While trying to purchase directly from adobe.com, we came across the following message: "Adobe CC is currently unavailable in your area". Is there any other way to buy CC? Via a distribuitor such as BH Photovideo for example, via download?
Thank you for your time.
Pablo Lozano

Can I make purchases in iTunes while I'm at the Dominican republic

I'm in the Dominican republic and wanted to make several purchases in iTunes. But I keep getting the PayPal account is not verified even though I checked my PayPal account and there isn't any problems with it. And I checked my iTunes account and there doesn't seem to be any problems with it either. What can I do to make changes if necessary to make it work.

If you have a U.S. account, the Terms of Sale stipulate you must be in the U.S. at the time of purchase. Certainly, many people have reported being able to purchase while outside of the country. However, others have reported issues. I suspect that, because your account is funded through PayPalt, it's not going to work.

ITunes Store available in the Dominican Republic

Hi,
We got the iPhones here in Santo Domingo on Dic 4th, just wanted to know when will the iTunes Store accept credit cards from this country? In other words open up the possibility to buying apps and music for the iPhone. Thanks.

Sorry, but we're all just your fellow users here and so have no idea when the App Store will open in the Dominican Republic. Depending on the DR's copyright laws and import and release restrictions, if any, and the availability of an appropriate Internet infrastructure, it could happen quickly or it could take quite a while. Music and video content will quite possibly take even longer as there will be many issues with rights and copyright that Apple would have to work out. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Dominican Republic

I wanted to change my SMS from my signin to my phone number, but Skype automatically assigns +1809 as though there is only one area code in use. Dominican numbers can have any one of three (3) area codes. Can you all please change this so that it is like the USA, which uses simply +1?

The link (http://blogs.skype.com/2007/03/15/skypein-now-available-for-domi/#fbid=XU1lwMCLtXt) says that the Dominican Republic has recently been added to the SkypeIn selection. So It shound be availabal. However it doesn't show up on the list so we can not purchase a number. What has happened??? Was it added or was it not added? can we get a number or NOT?? Would someone please coordinate these things and get the real story our to us.
Thanks

Candian Living in Dominican Republic - Send Receiv...

Hey there,
I'm looking at moving to Dominican Republic from Canada.
I need to still be able to send/recieve calls from my Canadian Cell Phone Number. I call over 3000 minutes a month to over 150 of my collegues back in Canada. So I make approx 300 minutes talk time durring business hours to over 60 different numbers a day.
I was wodering if I can forward my Canadian Cell Number to a Canadian Skype Number while living in Dominican Republic and using the Skype IOS App on my DR cell phone.
I need my collegues to be able to call me on my Canadian Cell number at the local Canadian rate and not be charged long distance.
Also, what the cost monthly/yearly would be.
Thanks in advance

Only the carrier it's locked to can authorize unlocking it.
If the phone is displaying ICCID unknown, then it's a brick. That's a critical failure, usually caused by jailbreaking/hacking. It can not be fixed.

Iphone in Dominican Republic

Anyone been to the Dominican Republic with their iphone? Does the phone work there?

Roaming internationally for data can be much more expensive than phone calls.
Data roaming is off by default with the iPhone, and AT&T has some data roaming packages available.
With the iPhone, you can enable Airplane mode followed by turning on wi-fi access. This will disable all iPhone radios except for wi-fi access. You won't be able to place or receive any calls, SMS, or access the internet via the cellular network, but you will have access to the internet via wi-fi.

Try a pram reset; Power down in the normal procedure, power back up holding the following keys before the start up chime ; option,command,P,R (no commas)continue to hold these these keys until you hear the start up chimes 2 times, then release. Reboot and see if this helps. If this persists, you should bring the machine to an Apple store, or an AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) Hope this helps:)

How to block a sales order when there is a free good item .

Hello Gurus ,
How to block a sales order when there is a free good item , only the authorised person should have authorisation to release those blocked Sales orders.
Reason - They want to have a track of free goods given to customer & to avoid the misusing things
Looking for your inputs
Thanks in advance

Hi
I think you can try with Status Profile in BS02 define and assign for item category TANN.
In status profile you can block the delivery and also billing unless some changes the object status as released.
Just try and explore

I would like to buy an ipad for a gift for a friend that lives in Santiago,Dominican Republic. What do I need to do to make the ipad function efficiently and properly in Santiago,Dominican Republic?

I would like to buy an ipad for a friend of mine that lives in Santiago,Dominican Republic. How and what do I need to do as far as set up of the ipad to make sure that it functions efficiently and properly in Santiago,Dominican Republic? The availability of wi-fi is not very good, so should I buy an ipad model that has wi-fi and cellular capability? I am quite new to all this technology so I would appreciate it very much if someone can explain step by by step and in simple terms how the ipad needs to be set up to work in this country.

The Smart Cover only protects the front screen. You'll get scratches on the back plus it provides no protection for a small drop.
I added a screen protector as it was cheap insurance protection.
For my iPad 2, I bought an Adesso case/keyboard model WKB-2000CD http://www.adesso.com/en/component/content/article/49-coming-soon/455-wkb-2000cd .html Works great & looks good. The keyboard is easier to use than Apple's on-screen keyboard. Do a Google search using the model number to get the best price. About the same price as Apple's covers & it covers the whole iPad. Although the new iPad is slightly thicker, it should fit this case.
 Cheers, Tom

Inflation Accounting in Dominican Republic

Hi Sap Guru
I just want to know that in Inflation accounting it is possible to revaluate the aseet from year 2000 till now.As client want to adjust the asset accordingly.If possible what is the configuration for that.
It is also possible to know if the country specific version is not being supported by SAP and if we configure that for other country than it will work properly for ex for Dominican republic SAP has not supported the inflation accounting and i am configured that ,so it will work or not
Regards
Anant

This is possible.
Look to SAP note 725957 (Turkey) here you found how to set this up. This you can use as basis with perhaps some little changes
For the calcualtion in the asset Depreciation area (details) you have to fill in Data for revaluation (date and revaluation key)
In the posting variant you say when the posting is.
The best is follow up inflation in a sepperate depreciation area.
To set this up cost some weeks! Set up the config and a lot of testing.
