Using the map/erase/lockout function on my Ipad

I see I can remotely erase, lock out and locate my Ipad if it is stolen or lost. I don't have any other Apple devices, so how do I do this from my Win7 PC?
I went to the Apple site and it said to download the Icloud panel for my PC (which I did), but did not give any other information on what to do or how to access this remote function. Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you

Go to iCloud.com on any web browser and log into your Apple ID.  You will then see the "Find My iPhone" green radar icon where you can utilize this feature from any PC.  The direct link to this feature is icloud.com/#find
iCloud.com cannot be accessed from the iPad or iPhone so you must utilize the app (as you already have) in order to use this feature from one of those devices (just FYI).

  • When using a personal dropbox account, is it possible to use the mapped drive without downloading all my dropbox files to my hard drive as well?

    When using a personal (not business) dropbox account on my mac book pro, is it possible to use the mapped drive only?  Currently I have dropbox mapped to my computer but it is also saving a redundant copy of the data on my hard drive.  My goal is to pull, edit and save files on the mapped drive only without having a redundant back up of all my dropbox files on my computer wasting valuable storage space.   Any advice out there?  Thanks in advance for your help!

    I don't believe that is accurate, but maybe I am missing something (I am not a Windows user).
    Looking at 2 explanation of how to map a Dropbox as a drive…
    http://lkeng.org/wp/?p=147
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5d8uvseVr5A
    Both of those are linking to the 'local copy' of Dropbox. It is not a true 'network' drive as far as I can see (it still requires the local copy on the PC).
    Another video suggests using another service to mount the Dropbox, but that is not using Dropbox anymore, it is going through Otixo…
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAIpm2qmglU
    Dropbox does not provide easy to use URL's to mount as a network disk so I don't think this is possible on OS X.
    Dropbox's forum has this too…
    https://www.dropboxforum.com/hc/communities/public/questions/202133795-How-to-ma p-dropbox-as-a-network-drive-on-Mac?loca…
    You may need to examine the Windows computers carefully - if they have Dropbox installed & running then all the files are stored on the local machine in addition to the 'mapped drive'.
    It looks to me like people are 'redirecting' the local copy to appear like a remote disk just so they can address that path on other machines - each PC is being setup the same. You could create aliases on OS X, but it doesn't help move files off the machine.
    Hopefully someone else will contradict me, but I don't think this is how Dropbox works.

  • Is there a way to use the preview in browser function without an Internet connection?

    This morning our cable modem was down and I was making some changes to a page in a Muse site I'm designing. I wanted to preview the changes in a browser, but when I clicked on the Preview button (or clicked on preview in browser), I received a notification that it was checking for an Internet connection and the preview page never completed. Is there a way to use the preview in browser function in Muse without an Internet connection?

    Thanks for getting back to me! When our cable modem went down, we were still connected to Airport Base Station, and perhaps it appeared to Muse that we did have an Internet connection. In any case, we have now received a new cable modem and our network is working again. As you suggested, I disconnected from the network and tried preview in Muse again, and now it seems to be working just fine. Perhaps it was just the circumstances of our network problem this morning. Good to know I can use the Muse Preview function off-line!

  • With using any version of iTunes, whenever I import songs into my library using the "add to library" function, iTunes adds those songs in songs' alphabetical order. This is pretty annoying since it does not preserve the logical track number or album.

    With using any version of iTunes, whenever I import songs into my library using the "add to library" function, iTunes adds those songs in songs' alphabetical order. This is pretty annoying since it does not preserve the logical track number or even the album sort order (for example when adding 2 albums stored in a unique folder). Anyone has any ideas ? Been stumped for a while....!!!

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

    In the numbers app, using the "date and time" function, is it possible to remove the time? I need to put together a list of dates, but I don't need or want times.

    When formatting your column to date/time, pick Date & time, and then pick the letter i in the circle to the right. Then scroll down and pick "No time"

  • Using the result of a function, inside a subselect

    Hi!
    I´m wondering if it´s possible to use the result of a function inside a subselect. Let me give you an example of what I´m trying to do here:
    select * from t_node where node_pk in (get_node_parents_pk(22345));
    The function get_node_parents_pk stands in for the following SELECT-statment:
    select node_pk from t_node_child where parent_node_pk = 12345
    The statement above would return something like this: 12435,23423,23453,23452
    These values represent the node_pk value for the parent nodes.
    I want the get_node_parents_pk function to return a result set similar to this so that I might call it inside the IN ( ) statement.
    Any clue? =)

    I created a collection type in the database:
    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE nodes_pk_arr IS TABLE OF INTEGER;
    The function get_node_parents_pk () is made to return the collection type above. However, this does not work. I get the following error message:
    SELECT *
    FROM t_node
    WHERE node_pk IN
    (SELECT * FROM TABLE (get_node_parents_pk (22345)));
    ORA-22905: cannot access rows from a non-nested table item
    However, if I insert a nodes_pk_arr collection directly into the SQL-statement, like I do below, it works:
    SELECT *
    FROM t_node
    WHERE node_pk IN
    (SELECT * FROM TABLE (nodes_pk_arr(24564,23545,34523));
    So, when returning the collection from the function I´m told that the collection is not a nested table, when in fact it is. What gives?
    Also, is there no way to return a result set directly from the get_node_parents_pk() function, making it possible to write the statement like that shown below?
    SELECT *
    FROM t_node
    WHERE node_pk IN (get_node_parents_pk (22345));
    Your reply is much appreciated!
    Kind regards

  • I found a track yesterday using the new siri-shazam function. Now, how do I see tracks I've found ?

    I've used the new siri-shazam function to look for a track yesterday. Now how do I find it ?

    You need the Kernel source and the ALSA source packages installed for ubuntu for the build to work right.
    It looks like the installer is having an issue trying to extract the package. You need to make sure you are root and when you switch to root, type "su - " without the quotes so that you get the environment of the root user as well which will have the correct paths for the /sbin and etc.
    After you extract everything and the setup completes, dont' worry because it won't work.
    Please god send us another Audio card from another company that cares.

  • My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer.  I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function.  Ideas?

    My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer.  I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function.  Ideas?

    The appearance of the printer in the Default view of the Add printer window relies on a protocol called Bonjour. There have been quite a few users who upgraded to Yosemite only to find that their wifi printer is no longer visible. Until Apple resolves this issue you can add your printer using the LPD protocol. To do so you will need to determine the IP address being used by the MX890. This can be done via the touch panel under Device Settings > Network Settings.
    Once you learn the IP address then on the Mac you can click to add the printer and select the IP icon. Here you can enter the IP address, set the Protocol to Line Printer Deamon and leave the Queue field blank. Then change the name to Canon MX890 and in the Use menu, browse for the Canon MX890 series driver. Then click Add to complete the printer creation.

  • Can i use the maps application already existing on my i phone in an offline mode?

    can i use the maps application -already existing in iphone 4- in an offline mode?

    No. It downloads the maps as it needs them.
    A very small portion of the map is cached in memory when offline, so you can see the last area you looked at, but as soon as you want to move the map, or look elsewhere it will need an internet connection to download from Google.
    There are standalone map apps available in the AppStore if you search for the area you want.

  • Error 91 - Trying to Use the Variant to Data Function

    I am running into a problem when trying to use variants in my application. I have a state machine set-up in that one state creates a task list (cluster of arrays) and then converts it to variant. The variant is fed into a shift register that allows me to access the task list from a different state.
    The problem comes when I try to use the Variant to Data function. I right click on the task cluster to create a constant, and then wire that to the TYPE terminal of the Variant to Data Function. I wire the task cluster variant to the VARIANT terminal. When I run the VI, i get error 91: Possible reason(s): LabVIEW: The data type of the variant is not compatible with the data type wired to the type input.".
    How can I get this error when the type I wired to the TYPE terminal of the Variant to Data terminal is a constant created from the exact type created a variant from???
    Section of the state machine where I wire the cluster to variant:
    Section of the state machine where I use the Variant to Data to get the cluster out:
    The constant wired to the Variant to Data TYPE terminal was created from the cluster that is wired to the Data to Variant. I do not understand how there can be a type mismatch???
    Solved!

    Are there any other state that run between these two?  I am noticing you have some "Use default if unwired" tunnels comming out of your case structure.  First of all, disable that on the tunnels.  Secondly, for those cases where you are not affecting that data, wire the data straight from the input tunnel to the output tunnel.  I recommend using the linked tunnels to make it even easier on yourself.
    With the default tunnels being output, your variant coming in could really be empty, therefore the conversion fails.

  • Go Daddy UCC Certificate: "ExRCA can only validate the certificate chain using the Root Certificate Update functionality from Windows Update"

    Hello,
    I have this issue regarding certificate chains while performing Outlook Anywhere connectivity test
    by Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer:
    "ExRCA can only validate the certificate chain using the Root Certificate Update functionality from Windows Update. Your certificate may not be trusted on Windows if the "Update Root Certificates" feature isn't enabled."
    Note: even if I got the error, Outlook Anywhere and
    ActiveSync services work fine.
    Environment:
    - Exchange 2007 with SP3
    - Go Daddy Multiple Domains UCC certificate (up to 5 Subject Alternative Names)
    I already read and followed instructions on this TechNet post
    Can I safely ignore this warning about the SSL cert? Using GoDaddy UCC cert but it is a little bit different by this case.
    So after an investigation I understand the issue above is related to SSL certificate
    Certification Path (see screenshots below).
    NO ERRORS on ExRCA checking

    Can you add some useful information ?

    Strange I have a feeling the exrca tool can't validate the godaddy class2 root authority due some older compability and wants to use the older original root authority valicert owned godaddy. Or when the exrca tool is validating the root CA it only has the
    goaddy class2 root ca that was issued by valicert and not the standalone cert when doing the comparision. I sent the question to MS and will let you know when I hear back.
    You can get rid of it
    https://certs.godaddy.com/anonymous/repository.seam
    Download the cert
    ◦gd_cross_intermediate.crt
    Then import it into the trusted root cert authority on your CAS boxes. Then you need to delete the other godaddy class2 root authority. Make sure you see the one you imported both will be named goaddy class2 root authority but one will be issued by valicert.
    Re-run the test and it will go away, I also saw the error with my domain as well using godaddy and got rid of it by using the new cert authority.

  • Firefox does not open with the tabs I had open when I use the quit and save function. Firefox opens with my home page only. how to fix?

    When I use the "Save and Quit" function it has no effect. The next time I open Firefox it goes to my home page only.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == 3 days ago

    This is not a solution, nor a work-around. The only thing this points out is where the problem lies. Settings are meant to be used in all sessions, barring exceptions and the fact that Firefox asks if you'd rather SAVE and then quit, makes it an exception. The user has elected to skip the clear browsing history step.
    However, if the settings are permanently changed as you suggest, then the history will always be remembered for eternity when Firefox is closed. You then have to manually clear your history first at every session before closing.
    Older versions of Firefox never behaved in such manner and recognized that the Save and Quit superseded the setting to Clear History.

  • Annoying 'Could not use the history eraser because the current canvas size does not match that of the history state' message

    Does anyone know if it is possible to get rid of the message 'Could not use the history eraser because the current canvas size does not match that of the history state'?. It comes up if I hit the alt/option key while I have the eraser selected. Something I do by accident all the time.

    The way you've described it, one gets the distinct impression you do not have a clue as to what the history brush does and how to use it.
    You need to read up on it.  Read the Help files and google for tutorials.
    First you need to create an image (with actual pixels in it), edit it as desired, then make a snapshot of the edited image, then target the snapshot with the history brush tool, then go back in the History panel to the step before your edits and selectively paint your edits in with the History Brush.
