User keeps loosing settings on her iPad

Hi Guys, I have a user that regularly says she has lost her settings on her iPad, its as if she has removed the profile which does require authorisation. We push these through our Mac OSX 10.9 Server , so its simple enough to re apply. She swears she is not doing anything, I looked through the logs using console and within Server app, I just can not pinpoint why this is happening. Has anyone got any troubleshooting tips like wherte to look for the info I need? I just want to understand what is happening. Its only this one user and she does it every few weeks.
Any tips would be great.
Bob

what Dilbert said is true.  But remember that every time you try to update those apps, it is going to ask for your old ID password.  It is not a good idea to change your apple ID.  It will revert to your old ID  every time there is an update.

  • How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

    How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

    You can change the account shortname to whatever you wish to use.
    As you can see from my example above. Once you click on the Create User button a new account will be created.
    She will need to get her own Apple ID setup so when she starts with iTunes she can open her own iTunes account unless you both want to share the use of the same Apple ID. This can create a bit of confusion if you have your own iPads or iPhones or iPods. As you have discovered it's pretty much one iDevice with one Apple ID.
    As for the iTunes library that becomes a more complicated issue.

  • Belkin wireless adapter F5D6050 keeps loosing settings when i first boot up

    I have to go into belkin wireless adapter setup everytime i reboot the machine.
    i am running 10.3.9 using the above adapter and it is doing my head in, any help would be gratefully apprieciated.

    Hi David White,
    Alternatively, after password recovery you can modify the configuration to be what you want, and then issue:
       write memory
    to save the configuration.  You can then verify that your changes have been saved to the startup config by issuing:
       show startup-config"
    The only good thing is that when I switch off a router it erase configuration except my new password which I created after password reset. Everything else is getting vanished (ADSL settings, DHCP, routing ) everything. Even new admin accounts I created.
    Well have a question to your above comments. I am new in Cisco so please put as much detail as you can for me to understand. When you say modify configuration do you mean to go to Cisco CP Express graphical interface and then connect router to hyper terminal and execute above commands?
    Why router doesn't remember this anyway. There must be some option to change in configuration to make thing permanent when I hit apply changes in Cisco CO Express otherwise it is pointless to heve it.
    Phillip
    write memory
    is
    copy running-config startup-config"
    Can't this be done via Cisco CP Express or set up router to copy this every time I change this in graphical interface rather going to command line to achnoledge it?
    I understand your concern about this router and somebodie's configuration details as you want things to be un-used when you buy them - true. ADSL details belongs to the shop which sold me the router so that is why I don't make a big problem about this. We take most of hardware from this shop and have discount and many good deals with them so I think they have been just testing it and forgot to erease their config. It might be that someone has returned router to the shop and they have repaired it and tested it.
    I hope this is a normal behaviour of this router as I have option to replace it in case this is a fault.
    Could you please write me step by step guide how can I make changed options stay permanently on router?
    thank you

  • I'm trying to upate my mother in-law iPad2 to ios 5 from the same win. pc that my iPhone 4 is connected.  I don't want to transfer her purchase items, photos, ... to my library.  Is there a way to update without loosing anything on the iPad?

    Warning message says :
    There are purchased items on the iPad "Joce's iPad" that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this iPad. Are you sure you want to continue?
    Since I don't want her stuff on my pc, is there a way to update and not loose anything on the iPad?
    Thank you

  • My iPad keeps loosing the internet connection. All of my other devices work. Last time this happened, comcast charged $49 to fix it. They said that it's somethin that I downloaded. How can I get back my internet connection on my iPad ?

    My iPad keeps loosing the internet connection. Last time this happened comcast charged $49 to fix it. They said that the problem was perhaps caused by something that I down loaded. All my other devices still connected to internet. Tried to reset my settings. Still won't work. Any advice ?

    First, changing your DNS settings could not possibly have any effect on this problem.
    When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
    Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.

  • Ipad 3 keeps loosing wifi connection

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Can my wife use her iPad to get access to my music via iTunes Match and still retain her iTunes store user id?

    my wife has a new iPad and iPad Store user ID.  I have a seperate iTunes store user id and subscribe to iTunes Match.  All my music is now in the "cloud".  Can my wife get access to my music via match and still retain her iTunes store user id? 
    The only way I seem to be able to get Match to work on her iPad is if she uses both my iCloud user ID and my iStore user ID.

    Essentially I have the same problem.  My spouse and I have a shared music collection on 1 computer.  We've used different id's for our various devices for years.  Currently we both use iPad minis iPhones and AppleTV.  I have iTunes Match on my account.  Recently we haven't been able to access songs bought or downloaded by the other id.  iTunes says that the computer is associated with another id.  In fact we have 1 song that didn't finish downloading when an album was bought on my spouses account while the rest of the album is there.  My suspicion is that I will need to go down to a shared id when we buy our new MacBook Pro for Boxing Day.  But, if we do that are we able to have separate calendars and passbooks and other features?  Is there another option?  I'm willing to stop using iTunes Match if necessary.

    The search bar can be very valuable...........
    In using it, I found out other's have had this issue and it likely means you have a 3G iPad?  If you do, go into settings and turn off cellular data, then try to update again and you should be OK........

    If by resetting to factory settings you mean she erased the drive and reinstalled the operating system, OS X, then yes all data thatwas on it is gone. That is why apple included time machine so you can make backups of your data.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    How does my daughter transfer her iPad over to me and restore it to factory settings

    if she is just giving you the iPad, all she would have to do is restore it to factory settings.  Once you receive it, just set it up with your apple ID and your good to go.  If you are talking about the warranty and such, i have no idea how to do that.  Oh, if you are sharing a computer with her, be sure to set the iPad up as a new one, don't restore from her old back up.  Hope that helps
