Use of Push Notifications between Wifi and Cell Data

Is there a way to set the phone to automatically have push notifications turn ON when you're on WiFi and OFF when you're on cell data?  I dont mind recieving them, but it would be nice if there was a preference to recieve them only when on WiFi.  Anyone know how to do that?

But my iPhone 4 definitely is using 3G when wifi is available, even switching to it when having been on wifi. For me this has only been happening since we started receiving 3G and 4G in our area. Used my full 200 meg data plan in one day when I normally hadn't come close to that all month. My settings were definitely set for using wifi and wifi was definitely available (was using it with my laptop). My internet is only 1 mb so I wonder if it chooses 3G or 4G because of speed. If so, this is a problem for me. If not, there is another problem.

  • Why can't I play downloaded podcasts with WiFi and Cell Data turned off?

    I'm on a limited data plan and want to ensure I'm not downloading or streaming podcasts when I'm not on WiFi.  It appears I have several podcasts downloaded (Blue Dot next to the title) but I'm not sure.... When I turn off WiFi and Cell Data, the podcasts grey out and are unable to play.  Why would I not be able to play a downloaded podcast while I'm off the network (both WiFi and Cell data)?

    Update....  Apparently the blue dot just indicates whether or not you've listened to the particular podcast or not, regardless of it's download status.  After playing with the app more, it also appears that many podcasts are not downloading to the device as I thought.  When I turn on Airplane mode, many podcasts are not playable (greyed out) but some that I have already listened to are playable.  I'm assuming the podcasts that are playable when on airplane mode are the only ones that are actually downloaded to the device (this makes sense doesn't it?).  So now my question is, "why aren't these podcasts being downloaded after I press the download button?".   They seem to play OK in streaming mode, either from WiFi or Cell Network.  Any insights?
    Thanks.

  • There should be a way to easly switch between wifi and cellular data

    I think apple should put wifi icon and cellular data icon on the notification bar so we can change between them easily or even closing them both. So other smart phone like Samsung did it from a long time and its really easier way so Apple as the greatest company in the smart phones field should do something for this ..

    Read http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/features/ and in particular the section on control centre.  Maybe that does it for you but you will have to wait until Sep/Oct for the public release

    I plan on buying a new  I Pad wit wifi and cell from Apple. But  I don't want to select a cell carrier right now. Q 1: Do I have to select a carrier at purchase? and Q 2, In the meantime will I be able to get on line at home using my Cox Internet wi fi? Thanks. 

    Thanks for the help. Now I can feel comfortable in not having to sign up for cellular when I buy, esp. Since I'll be using my new IPad mostly at home on my Cox wi fi. Then I can see, in using the i pad, how often I'd actually use the cellular, and where. This can help decide which type of cell plan I get. Small problem it may seem, but a very helpful answer. Thanks.

  • I just updated my phone to iso 7 and it will not activate my push notifications or facetime and I'm connected to wifi help???

    I just updated my phone to iso 7 and it will not activate my push notifications or facetime and I'm connected to wifi help???

    Hi Heva79!
    You may want to try simply restarting your phone to see if you are able to get past that page after a restart. Instructions for doing this can be found here:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If you are still experiencing this issue after a restart, you may want to attempt the steps for a reset as outlined in that same article. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

  • How does iPad choose between wifi and 3G when both are 'on'?

    Easy peasy question.
    I have 02 and Wifi going on my iPad. I know I can use 02 out and about and I know I can use wifi at home etc.
    But when I'm at home how do I make sure I'm using my wifi for data and not my cellular connection???
    I've been turning my cellular to 'off' when at home, just in case, but I don't want to have the faff of turning it off and on, so it would be nice to know how the iPad chooses between wifi and 3G when both data access points are active.
    Also I've had no wifi troubles at home at all. so far... The acid test will be setting it up at work as they have proxyies for everything, but obviously I don't have proxies at home. I'm not sure if the settings screen can cope with different proxies dependent upon different wifi networks... * grin *

    In the status bar I have
    a signal strength indicator then 'O2-UK' then the 'fan' No mention of 3G.
    I'm guessing you're going to say that when 3G is showing then 3G is being used for data?

  • If I'm overseas, and I use iMessage not connected to wifi, and I'm messaging someone who has an iPhone as well with ios 7, will get charged SMS/mms fees?

    if I'm overseas, and I use iMessage not connected to wifi, and I'm messaging someone who has an iPhone as well with ios 7, will get charged SMS/mms fees?

    No, but cellular data will be used at whatever international roaming rate you carrier charges for data in whatever country.
    Exchanging iMessages requires the same thing as email - an available internet connection. SMS/MMS is completely separate from iMessage.

  • Let applications choose between WiFi and Ethernet

    Hi Forum,
    So basicly I'm connected to a secure ethernet line with limitations, besides that I'm also connected to wifi with no limitations.
    I want to let apps choose between wifi and ethernet, is there any way to do so ?

    (A repost of something I posted elsewhere - trying to help others)
    If it helps you at least a little, in the Podcast App, playlists are now called "My Stations". You can add entire podcasts to Stations (and create new Stations), or you can add individual episodes to the "on-The-Go" station.
    Not intuitive, and not as good as having the podcasts back with the music, but it gets the job done till Apple listens to the users again and changes this back.
    Cheers!

  • IPhone 5 dropping wifi and cell signal when asleep

    IiPhone 5 in last couple weeks has been randomly dropping wifi and cell signal when asleep. Requires restart to reset it. Turning off wifi or going into airplane mode for 15 seconds does not fix it. Also I note that when I restart after a dropped signal, the phone searches a few seconds longer than at other times.

  • Difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source

    HI,
    What is the difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    In addition to above differences. Below is the functional difference between 0FI_AP_30 & 0FI_AP_4:
    0FI_AP_4 gives you accounts payable line items in your report. Here GL account shows the balances of particular types of  vendors/payables to which that particular GL account is been assigned.
    And If subledger is activated in ECC, then by using 0FI_AP_30 you can get the break up of that particular GL balance according to vendors.
    To make use of datasource 0FI_AP_30, subledger accounting must be activated in ECC.

  • Reference Library for Converting Between LabVIEW and XML Data (GXML)

    Please provide feedback, comments and questions on the Reference Library for Converting Between LabVIEW and XML Data (GXML) in this thread.
    The latest version of the NI GXML Library is availble in VIPM on the NI LabVIEW  Tools Network repository.

    Francesco, Thank you for the feedback.  With this component it was my intention to make a more "terse" version of the LabVIEW Flatten to XML VI that was also supported on RT and that gave the user more flexbility regarding the structure of the parsing type definition. I think you are right that the XML parser is not compliant to section 2.11 of the XML spec.  The parser does specifically looking for a #D#A and this appears to be an oversight on my part.  Please confirm for me, the specifcation is saying that the XML parser should be able to recognize three possibilities as an "end of line" character: #D#A, #D, or #A.  Am I reading this right?There are more efficient (and in some cases much more efficient) ways of sharing data between LabVIEW and LabVIEW: some examples are flattened binary strings and the datalog binary format.  XML is slower than these optons but the upside is that it is human readable.  Furthermore XML is inherently hierarchical which is convenient for complex data structures like clusters of arrays of clusters, etc.  If you don't care about human readability then you are correct XML doesn't make as much sense.I will return to the GXML source code and try to fix this in the near future but I would hope that instead of creating yet another custom VI from scratch that you could reuse what I have provided for you.  I included enough documentation in the source code so that users could make some modificiations themselves. The target application for this reference library was LabVIEW to LabVIEW communication.  As such I documented the schema on the dev zone document from a LabVIEW perspective.  It includes all the supported datatypes and all the supported data structures (cluters, arrays, multidimensional arrays, clusters of multidimensional arrays, etc.)  I do see some value in making a more conventional XML spec but the time investment required didn't really line up with my intended use case. Were there any other downsides to GXML that I have missed?  Best Regards, Jeff TippsSystems Engineer - Sound and VibrationMessage Edited by Jeff T. on 04-21-2010 10:09 AM

  • Relation between master and transaction data

    Hi experts,
    I have a basic question how the relation between masterdata and transction data is maintained in R/3. As I know first we extract master data and later transaction data in a typical R/3 based scenario.
    1.How does BW knows that , the transaction data are  related masterdata in the same sense as in R/3 ?
    I am involved in an enhancement of R/3 extractor. I need to derive 3 more fields and map it to info objects in BW. Cld any one explain me ( with an example plz) how these alignments to be made. How can I establish relation b/w derived fields and transaction data during extractions ?
    regs
    D Bret

    Hi Dave.
    Let's see if I can get all of your questions answered.  First, when Transactional Data is loaded, BW checks to see if a SID exists for each characterisatic field & value in the load.  If one doesn't, it either creates a SID (Surregate ID) in the master data tables (default action) or the load fails (if the enforece referential intgegrity flag is set).  It's better to load master data first in either case as it will improve the performance of the transactional load.
    In terms of R/3, the data has similar relationships as in BW.  There are master data tables and transactional data tables.  The difference is that while R/3 uses ~1 master data table per field, BW uses more.  Same thing for transactional data.
    As for your enhancement, if everything you need for the derivation of the extra field is in R/3, then you can enhance the extractor in RSA6 and do the mapping in R/3.  Once you replicate the DataSource to BW and reconnect the transformation & update rules, the load should work.  If you can give a bit more information on what sort of enhancement you are attempting, I can give a better example.
    Cheers,
    Adam

  • Wifi and mobile data problems

    Hello
    I am reporting a problem regarding the wifi and mobile data on my Xperia Z1. Whenever I lock my phone, the wifi and mobile data keeps turning on by itself again and again. I have tried to turning the "automatic turn on wifi when sleep" to "never" but it keeps turning "always" whenever I lock my phone, so does the mobile data. I look forward to some replies.
    Sincerely

    Hi @Nick2510 I suggest you to first run a backup of the device information like this: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/FAQ/Backup-amp-Transfer/m-p/407253#U407253 Try performing a system repair using PC Companion: http://support.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/pc-companion/ This will factory reset your phone and erase all data. You might need tocharge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 80% battery. Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device). Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process. If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose
    Windows 7 or XP. I hope can be useful. I'm at disposal for any question. Best Regards,

  • Difference between passive and active data connection mode for  FTP

    Hi,
    Does any body have the idea of passive and active data connection mode for the transport protocol FTP.
    I have one server with FTP, I have to pick the data from this FTP to XI.
    What is the difference between active and passive data connection? Does XI supports both the connections?
    Thanks & Regards
    Katta Mohan Reddy

    Hi
    According to SAP Note - 821267
    Q: Does the File Adapter support active data connections when connecting to an FTP server?
    A: Up to and including SP14, the File Adapter exclusively uses passive data connections. Starting with SP15, active connections will be available.
    Difference between active and passive,
    You can definitely refer to the site mentioned by Suraj
