Using HH2 as WAP with Infinity and Android devices

We have just had Infinity installed.
Before Infinity I had two HH2s set up as waireless access points using the guide prodiced by Keith of this neighbourhood. They conected back to the HH3 via two TP-Link powerlink units. It all worked well. I never got round to resetting the SSID to the same on all 3 hubs which meant as you moved from one side of the house to the other you have to choose a different router.
BT set up Infinity today and it was working fine with my original setup however on the spur of the moment I decided I would change the SSID for all three hubs (two original HH2s and the new HH5).
I started with HH5 and it worked fine. I then worked my way around the other two HH2s and it seemed to work for a while and then suddenly when I was in the same room as the HH5 my Android tablet could not get the internet. Logging into the IP address for the HH5 it showed that it was connected. The blue linelight was on. The internet radio in the cooking room was connected and working, presumably connected to the nearest HH2.
I reset the wireless settings on the HH5 but still my tablet and my Android phone got the error page saying that there was no internet connection. After diconnecting a couple of times I eventually got the Android tablet connecting to both the HH5 and to the common SSID now shared by the HH2s. My phone wont connect at all.
As a test I then connected my work laptop via a cable connection to a TP-Link and it worked fine. I then connected it via the commn SSID (HH2 only) and the HH3 SSID and agin it works fine. This thread is created on WiFi to the common SSID.
Sorry for the long description.
Two questions:
1. When setting the common SSID I used the same passkey for all three routers, was this the best way to do it?
2. Why has my Android phone lost connectivity and how do I recover it?
PS 3rd question, why wont this forum accept the word "kit c hen"?
PPS I've just checked on the settings within HH5 and the phone is showing as connected but to the 2.4GHz signal.

There are a couple of different guides on my website, one of them is by Jarviser, so I don`t know which one you are using.
If you make all the SSIDs the same, then Android devices tend to get confused, as they see the same SSID, but with a different BSSID (Wireless MAC address).
This can cause them to fail to get a valid IP address, so you get no connectivity, this is a common issue with BT Wifi hotspots as well, when Android devices are used.
It would be better to use slightly different SSIDS, and then allow the devices to automatically select the one that is in range.
Make sure that the HH2s are on different channels, and make sure that smart wireless, and smart setup is disabled on the HH5.
To answer your last question, its part of the spam protection that was implemented on this forum a while back.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

Problems with EA2700 and Android devices

I enjoyed EA2700 for more than 3 months so far until I decided to change my cell phone to Galaxy S3.
I have my router operating 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz simultaneously, providing perfect internet access to my two windows 7 laptops, mac mini and iPad. This is not the case when I try to hook my Galaxy S3 phone and Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. This two korean devices have a real problem using the router for internet. Both the tablet and the phone connect to the router and have strong signal, but there is no ping going through nor any other internet app works. The router is set to WPA2/WPA Mixed personal sec mode and auto channel. I even try to make it open, but even then the Android devices connect but don't have an internet access. In the same time the rest of the home pcs and mac work perfectly.
I tried, for the two last days different approaches like upgrading the router firmware, installing the cloud and the smart wi-fi interface, removing the security and opening the network…. it didn't work! What I figure out so far that if I set a guess account the devices connect without problem and have internet, although I have to manually enter the password for the guess account, which dialogue is provided through a web page you have to navigate to before attempting to use internet. I though the problem could be with the Samsung s3 and the tablet 2 7.0, and had them several time reset to their factory settings.
I tried connecting and old WRT 120N router and it worked fine!!!! just this EA2700 is still not usable with android devices running Android 4.0 OS.
Has somebody experienced the similar problem please share the found solution, otherwise I have to change the EA2700 i guess.
Solved!

you may wanna try using Wireless B/G Only for network mode on 2.4GHz. check if your devices can connect to the network successfully. there was an issue with Android devices connecting to N networks before so this might be a fix. however, it will rate limit your connection speeds to 54Mbs at best.
there's also a workaround you can try on the android devices. ensure wifi is set to enable at start up. turn off wifi and reboot the device. verify your connection status. since your devices have already connected to the network, they should reconnect to the network automatically. check if you can go online from there.

I have a BTHome Hub3 with infinity and used to use my TC wirelessly, I can't seem to get it to stay connected revert to my original back up

I have a BTHome Hub3 with infinity and used to use my TC wirelessly. Since I changed I cannot get my TC to stay connected, nor can I access the previously stored backups or files I had stored on it. I don't want to use an Earthnet cable. I can't get it to connect or stay connected to my MacMini either.

HELP ME PLEASE!!

Issues with iPhone and Android connecting to Lync 2010?

Our environment currently consists of a single Lync 2010 instance, which is currently performing all roles. The current challenge I'm running into is connectivity to iOS and Android devices not wanting to cooperate. Currently, Lync is using a certificate
issued by a local CA. The CA root certificate has been imported to the devices that are having trouble connecting, and I've done this via email import without success, as well as using the iPhone Configuration Utility. In all tested instances, an error that
"the certificate can't be verified" is displayed that prohibits a user from establishing a connection. All domain workstations and remote users that import the root CA have no issues connecting.
I can't seem to figure out what's going on here. Has anyone run into this? This is a quasi-test environment in my lab that I'm testing with a few other people, and as much as we've tried, can't seem to figure out the issue. Any ideas?

To confirm that the certificate has been installed successful do you have a corporate website that is available externally that uses a certificate issued by the CA in question? If the answer is yes I would browse to that site on the phone and see if you
get an error. The Lync mobile clients don't give you a heck of a lot of information for troubleshooting. This will rule out a certificate issue.
Next thing would be your reverse proxy. Are you using ISA server? Test the reverse proxy rule by browsing to the Lync mobile auto discover URL - https://lyncwebexternal.domain.com/Autodiscover/AutodiscoverService.svc/root
Assuming ISA also make sure the rule is configure correctly -

http://blogs.technet.com/b/nexthop/archive/2012/11/19/configuring-reverse-proxy-for-lync-server-2010-mobility.aspx
Let me know what the results are of those tests.

Use different DPS accounts for iPad and Android versions of same app?

Hi there,
When creating an Android version of an iPad DPS app should the account used to create the content (the 'Title ID' in the DPS App Builder) be the same for both versions, or different? In the content viewer I know that iPad content will show up even on Android, so I'm thinking that the answer is probably no, but I haven't managed to find it mentioned in the Adobe docs.
Thanks,
Toby

It depends, but usually the answer is that you want to use a different account for iOS and Android. Not all features supported in the iOS viewer are supported in the Android viewer. For example, if you use panoramas or iOS-specific web views in your articles, you'll want to be able to use different content for the Android viewers. Search for "dps supported features" for a comparison chart.
I use different Application accounts for my apps. I use the Share/Copy feature to transfer the folios from the iOS account to the Android (or Windows) account. Then I delete the few articles that don't work well in the viewer and replace them with articles generated from different source files. That works well and doesn't require too much extra effort.
If you want to reduce the amount of letterboxing in Android viewers, you'll definitely want to use different accounts and use, for example, 1280x800 folios instead of 1024x768.

Do i use Air or Flex for iPhone and Android app development

Hi guys, whats the main difference between the 2 and does Air or Flex have everything Xcode does for iPhone/iPad development
I'm hearing that Flex has Android and SDK for iPhone, if this is the case why learn Xcode ?
Thanks

Titanium is good for iOS, but apparently not so good for Android. Moreover, it's not so cheap!
When one chooses a platform, one should also take into consideration the history and stability of the company which offers it.
That is why I would not go to Appcelerator: who knows what's behind the corner?
Sure, it is ironic that I say this after Adobe - a big company - has abandonded Flex...
Some alternatives:
- AMPChroma (Horrible name, but it has a solid company selling it: Antenna Software). This thing has the advantage that the content is not either native or web: the same content can be packaged for a web site AND for an app
     Pro's: Many big players are using it
     Con's: price list not very clear
- Adobe Edge "Preview" + Adobe PhoneGap <--- Adobe says: you create animation for the web, you package it for an app. Not many people have tried it. But apparently it will work.
     Pro's: apparently, Edge is Adobe's instrument to finally go to HTML5.
     Con's: Edge "showcase" performs BADLY and SLOWLY in an iPhone (go think of a Samsung Mini)
- Adobe Flash professional CS6 + Create JS <--- you create animations in Flash, then you export to HTML5 and js for browsers which don't have flash. You can also package with AIR for iOS and Droid.
     Pro's: Flash professional is easy, Action Script is powerful. You can have BOTH the power of Flash and the portability of html5/JS.
     Con's: for how long will Adobe support this Create JS hack? When will Adobe say "OK, now you've done enough automatic porting to JS, from next release on you move to Edge, or to - wait for it - a version of Flash which uses Javascript instead than ActionScript?"
Me, I don't know what to do. I am keen on FlashBuilder/Flex because it's fast to build. Apps are really compatible both with iOS and Android. It has Salesforce.com connectivity. It's cool.
However, there are two problems that get me stuck from continuing with FlashBuilder:
- OK for native apps but... how do I use the Flash Builder/Flex content for the mobile WEB? Flash Builder does not have the CreateJS capability. I do a cool interface and I cannot reuse it on the mobile web if not with apps?
- OK for HTML5 but... it's NOT as good as Flash now. Have you ever seen a Phonegap application with graphics? They're embarassing. Slow, imprecise. And non-compiled Edge stuff is not much better. Is it? any good example.
Bottom line: at the moment, HTML5 support does not seem good. On the other hand, Flex is NOT compatible with mobile web. What IS performing and promises to be compatible with mobile web in addition to native apps?
Flash Professional CS6.
Again.
I am happy if some-one belies me with good arguments.

I use a Win7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my calendar and contacts. I can enter data in my Outlook Calendar and it will appear in iCloud, but data entered in iCloud does not sync back to Outlook. ICloud syncs to my iphone fine both ways.

I use Win 7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my Contacts and Calendar. They have stopped syncing...mostly.
Now, appointments I enter on my local Outlook (iCloud) Calendar goes up to iCloud fine. But, data I enter on iCloud directly does not come down to my local Outlook iCloud Calendar. If I reboot the computer, the iCloud data shows up.
Also, Contacts I try to enter on my Outlook (iCloud) Contacts goes up to iCloud fine, but does not show up in my local iCloud Contacts.
All syncing works with my iPhone.
I have signed out of iCloud on PC. I have stopped syncing and re-started. No change.
I have an .aplzod folder for iCloud. I have a separate Earthlink.net.pst email account in Outlook and a me.com.pst Outlook email account (which I don't actually use) listed under Data Files.
Any help would be appreciated. Curious that Outlook will upload to iCloud but not receive downloads unless I reboot. However, rebooting does not download the missing Contacts.
Jim Robbins

Hi Jim!
You've started off with some good troubleshooting steps, so let's see if we can take this a little further and figure out what the issue is with your iCloud contacts and calendars. I have two articles here that will help you troubleshoot this issue a little further, but the troubleshooting steps for both articles are exactly the same, so I will lay those out for you here:
Note: When using iCloud Control Panel 2.0 and later, iCloud Calendar event descriptions in Outlook 2010 do not support text formatting (bold, italics, or underline), HTML, images, or attachments. The contextual (right-click) menu has also been disabled.
If you are having trouble with a PC (with Outlook 2007 or 2010) and iCloud Calendar, try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
Verify that you are using a Windows configuration that is supported by iCloud. For more information, see iCloud system requirements.
When enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel, part of the setup process is to copy your Calendars data from the default Outlook ".pst" file to iCloud, and then remove the Calendars from the ".pst" file by placing them in the Deleted Items folder in Outlook. The Calendars data is then stored in the iCloud data set within Outlook so that changes can be pushed to and from Outlook by iCloud. Be sure you are looking for your data within the iCloud dataset within Outlook after enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel. The deleted files can be seen by viewing Deleted Items within your Outlook Folder List. This is not iCloud removing your data; iCloud simply copies your data into the iCloud data set and then removes the local Calendars data by placing it in the Deleted Items folder.
Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Outlook. Click here for more information about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
Open a secure website to test if you are online as is necessary for iCloud Calendar. This also tests if the ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Outlook requires port 443 access to iCloud in order to push and pull updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Control Panel pane. See iCloud Setup for more information about setting up iCloud on Windows.
Completely close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.
If you recently made changes in Outlook and they are not moving to your other devices or vice-versa, click the Refresh button in Outlook.
Turn iCloud Calendar off and back on:
Close Outlook.
Open the Windows Control Panel:
In Windows 8, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, and then click the iCloud Control Panel on the left.
In Windows 7 and Vista, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks, and click Apply. Wait a few seconds, then replace the checkmark, and click Apply.
Open Outlook and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
Ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
Outlook 2010:
Open Outlook 2010.
Click the File menu.
Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For Outlook 2007, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active
Open Outlook 2007.
From the Tools menu, choose Trust Center.
Select Add-ins from the left column.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For additional information about managing Add-ins with Microsoft Outlook, see this Microsoft support document.
Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.

It´s possible to use the "Remote" app with Itunes and a Nokia E72 with Joikuspot installed only? Or I´ll need to buy a modem Wifi?

It´s possible to use the "Remote" app with Itunes and a Nokia E72 with Joikuspot installed only? Or I´ll need to buy a modem Wifi?
I was using "remote" with a D-link modem, that works fine at my iPad. But now I´m using only the cell phone as modem 3G, and don´t want to intall a router to put new cables at my notebook.

What?
You want to control iTunes on your computer using the Remote app on your iPad?
And you want to connect the iPad and computer through your Nokia?
No, this will not work.
Just create a network with your notebook.

How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!

Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
- Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
- Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup.
Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
To move mdia to the new computer see:

Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few m

Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few months and updates ago

I tried your suggestion, not knowing that the direct pdf printer would also "save as" PDF, but when I try your suggestion and use the Adobe PDF printer that is a direct creation of the PDF from the browser (IE9), instead of the "black out" areas I get when I use the "Convert to" button, I get missing blocks of the resulting PDF, and only get the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the webpage.
Just to clarify, when I said I print the webpage and then scan, that is a work around I have to do if I need a scanned version of the way a webpage appears on a particular date and time, instead of the one step process I used to be able to do when Adobe Acrobat would actually convert the webpage to a pdf without blackout areas or, if I try your suggestion, blank spots with a partial webpage. But the idea was one I had not thought of and I appreciated the thought.
Yes, Acrobat was updated, and is updated, and was working fine until a few months ago, Win 7 and Office 32 bit versions, Office 2010

Can I use HP Pro 8600 with usb and wireless at the same time

Can I use HP Pro 8600 with usb and wireless at the same time? Sometimes I cannot get the wireless to work, it seems to be my laptop. It would be nice if I could use the usb, but it doesn't work. What should / can I do, if anything?
Sam

Hi,
Same physical printer but when connecting to SAME computer using both USB and wireless it becomes two (logical) printers. Probably your default prnter is the wireless one, you have to select the right printer before print .

Transferring ebooks to smartphones and Android devices

Several people have posted to the Forum about their ability to get ebooks to smartphones and Android devices that aren't supported by Digital Editions.
SONY has at least part of an answer. They just posted the following information:
"Reader Store now enables you to browse, purchase, and download eBooks from any browser and have them instantly delivered to your wireless Reader device, Android® tablet, Android phone, PC or Mac®."
That means that SONY Reader Store supports these devices (hint to Adobe!!!).
Of course you can sign up for SONY Reader Store, and get your ebooks from them directly. Then, just follow their directions and you'll be able to transfer the ebooks to these devices, provided that their DRM settings will allow it. This is just a parallel way of getting ebooks, and the steps are similar to those you use with ADE, just as you would do if you were getting ebooks for your Nook from Barnes and Noble.
If you want to continue to obtain ebooks from other sites, such as gutenberg.org, manybooks.net, etc., then you can sign up for SONY Reader Store, download their Reader library and software, but use ADE to do the transfer from the website where you get the ebooks. Once the transfer is done, provided DRM will allow it, you can open Reader Store, import the ebook from the ADE library and use Reader Store to do the transfer to your smartphone or other device that they support. I know it's a bit of work, but you may find it worthwhile - and less frustrating.
SONY Reader Store has HELP features that will help you to go through the steps to do the importing and the downloading.
CAVEAT: I would not try to do this with library ebooks. The way they're handled in ADE may screw up any attempt you make to use Reader Store for the transfer. Contact your local library and see if their software supports your smartphone or Android device.
Hope this helps!

Adobe Flash Player for mobile (iOS and Android) devices

I have both Apple iOS and Android devices, and can't install Adobe Flash Player on either. It appears that Adobe no longer provides Flash Player for any mobile devices. The company I work for uses a a company called Paychex for payroll and time & labor, and that program requires Adobe Flash Player to function. I am sometimes in areas where I cannot use my computer and must rely on a mobile device to clock in and out, but I can't do that because you have stopped providing the program. What do I do now?????

iOS has never been compatible with Flash, and per Apple, never will be. It's a lost cause hoping for an iPad Flash Player.
Additionally, Android dropped ALL support for Flash last year. Adobe stopped development of Flash for Android shortly afterward.
See: "Why can't I install Flash Player on my Tablet?" (Kindle or Samsung Galaxy)
The reason both Android and Apple gave for their Flash support decisions is that Flash content is very processor consumptive and it eats battery life in mobile devices.

MII GUI's on smartphone and Android devices

Hi,
I would like to make MII GUI's capabale to run on smartphones and Android devices. Could you please help on this?
I am using MII 14.0 version.
Any help on this very much appreciated
Thanks
Shaji Chandran

Hi Saji
Any HTML content will work on smartphones. If you mean Applets as MII GUI then you might have a tougher proposition. However as you are already on MII 14.0 why don't you try out the HTML5 based Grid and Charts. You would need SP04 for that. These charts and grids would work perfectly with smartphones.

Joikuspot (free) and Android Devices

Hello,
I want to get a tablet. Thinking of Android...but I tried to use my N8 with Joikuspot free at an electronics store with a bunch of tablets. All worked except for Android devices, Ipads and some other no name brands with proprietary OS tablets found it and it worked. All laptops also found it. But no Android tablets or phones in the area detected it.
One Android device foun it (Jellybean) but would not connect.
I read that Android does not support Ad Hoc connections which Joikuspot provides.
I tried some Android forums, but they either had a Bluetooth solution (too slow) or they said try the Nokia forums.
Besides Joikuspot - any other Wifi hotspot apps? Would Joiku Spot full work - anyone have it and try it with and Android device?
Anyone have suggestions?
Thanks,

It does seem to be possible to make android work with ad-hoc wifi. Search for "android ad-hoc wifi" - but it does seem to carry quite a highrisk of causing problems. I could try it out on my tablet, but it is unstable enough as it is so I don't want to risk making it even worse.
I wish it was possible to install Symbian onto my android tablet, but failing that I think I will soon be jumping ship to apple - influenced somewhat by the idea of a display that will do the 808 pictures justice.
