WCS 4.0 Client Statistics without Location Services

Hello,
when I watch a client in the WCS 4.0.96(base only version) the section named "client statistics" only prints "Location Server did not return any statistics information for this client."
Does that mean, that I need a location version to get infos like how much traffic a client generated? That would be hard to believe... :-/
greetings, p.k.

We do not have location services. We only have a Base version license for WCS.
But I see no reason why location services are required for such simple statistics how much traffic a user created.
p.k.

IMovie cannot access library without location services - Why?

So this is the error message I get when trying to use iMovie for iPhone - "iMovie cannot access your photos or videos" "To enable access, open the settings app, tap General, then tap Location Services and then set the iMovie switch to 'On'." (pic - http://twitpic.com/2269ze ).The question is "Why?" What if I don't want my videos to include geo location data? Why does iMovie need location services to start a project? It doest make any sense to me. I understand that some of the themes may have features for using location data, but shouldn't that be at the users discretion?

I find this rather odd as well. I keep location services turned off for the camera so why iMovie would need to access data that isn't there is beyond me. I think it's just poor programing on Apple's part. It would be just as easy to ignore any location data if you have that turned off and you happen to pick a picture or video that has it embedded.

Stolen itouch! how do i find it without location services?

My itouch ws stolen this morning, and im wondering how to find it. I havent got the location services tuned on, and im not sure if the find my iphone app was enabled. Do i still have a chance on finding it?
Thanks so much in advance!

Sorry, no. The only way to locate any lost/stolen iPod Touch or iPhone is by using Find My Phone. However, this requires that Find My Phone be turned on, on your Touch. If not, then there's no way to locate it now.
Change your passwords & report the loss to the Police, & your Insurance company.

The problem with ALAssetsLibrary and Location Services

I have developed a photo app for the iPhone, released a couple of days ago, that's doing rather good in the App Store, but would probably do a lot better if it weren't for the negative reviews saying that they can't understand why the app wants access to Location Services to be able to select photos from the photo gallery.
The app lets users select photos from their gallery, which they then can style and edit in different ways. To do this I use the ALAssetsLibrary class. So far so good. The problem with the ALAssetsLibrary class is that if I wish to use it to access photos on the device, the user must give the app access to Location Services, as well. Why, you ask? Well, because photos in the gallery might possibly include information on when and where the photo was taken. If the user doesn't give the app access to Location Services, the app won't be able to access the photos at all.
In my app I'm not interested in the location services data at all - I just want the user to be able to select photos. But as far as I know there is just no way to read photos without Location Services enabled. As a developer I can sort of buy this limitation - because I understand why it exists - but apparently my users can not. And as a user myself I have to agree with them. Why on earth do they/I have to allow the app to access Location services for me to be able to select photos? It doesn't make sense!
At the moment I'm getting a lot of negative reviews saying "I downloaded and deleted. The app wants access to Location Services when I try to select a photo. This seems fishy. Don't download it". I agree. It DOES seem fishy, but I couldn't care less about their location data, and although I try to inform the user about this in the app, a lot of people doesn't seem to care, or understand why this is the way it is.
So, what's the point of this rant? Well, to start with, wouldn't it be better if iOS asked something like "This app needs access to your photos" instead of "This app needs access to your location", when using the ALAssetsLibrary?
Also, instead of using the ALAssetsLibrary I could have used the UIImagePickerController - if only it had supported landscape orientation. Why, why, WHY doesn't it? My app is landscape only, and therefore I had to build my own image picker functionality, instead of using the default one. Portrait only is a very stupid limitation, if you ask me.
Finally, is there SOME way at all to access the photos on the device without requiring Location Services as well?
Thank you for listening,
Andreas Lindahl

Unfortunately, there is no way to directly access the photo library without prompting the user for Location Services permission. I just posted an article on my blog about this very issue (and referenced your post): http://blog.mikeswanson.com/post/18269837647/location-services. I hope that this situation can be improved in a future release of iOS.

My daughter is missing and has her iPhone 4S with her. When I log into iCloud it says online, location services off. Does that mean there is no way for me to track the phone?

My daughter has been missing for a week and has a serious medical condition. She has an iPhone 4S and when I log into find my iPhone it says online , location services off. Does that mean there is no way to track the phone? Please I'm willing to try anything to get my baby home. Thanks.

Without location services, there's no way the device can be tracked. It's location services that provide the device's location to any apps that need that info, including the Find My iPhone service. Sorry.

Why is "genius for apps" using location services?

I noticed that in iOS 6, that there is now a "genius for apps" entry under the location -> system services. Every time I go in there it shows as having been recently used (purple), despite me not having used the App Store genius recently. It does this on both my iPad and iPhone.
What exactly is triggering this? Why does app genius need location services? Could this explain the poor battery life I'm seeing under iOS 6?

When I open iMovie it creates an alert that says iMovie cannot access the photos or videos on the iPad without Location Services being switched on. [...]
Anyway, it gives some instructions on how to change the settings to enable Location Services for iMovie, but none of the things it says to do appear in Settings. I can't enable Location Services for iMovie in Settings - Location Services, or in Settings - iMovie. I can enable the camera for Location Services, but that makes no difference to iMovie which continues to refuse to edit anything on the iPad.
The short answer is try connecting the iPad to a computer and doing the initial iPad set-up/registration via iTunes. (Maybe you can do the same thing via iTunes on the iPad.)
I had the same problem Basilisk describes, on a brand new iPad. I purchased iMovie through the App Store (directly on the iPad), but couldn't do anything with it due to the catch-22 described above. iMovie did not appear under Settings > Location Services so I could not turn on location service for iMovie.
Subsequently, I connected the iPad to my iMac and went through the first-time set-up of the iPad by iTunes. I selected some music albums and photo albums to sync to the iPad.
Back on the iPad, iMovie still did not appear in Settings > Location Services, BUT, now when I launched iMove a different dialog box appeared. Paraphrasing, it said, "iMovie wants to use your current location. This will allow iMovie to use location information in your photos and videos. Don't Allow/ Allow."
I tapped "Allow" (grudgingly) and iMovie was now usable, and it now appeared in under Locations Services.
The catch-22 situation is a bug. If the iPad setup via iTunes is indeed necessary to get around the impasse, nothing tells the user that.

Manually override location services?

My bank won't let me deposit checks Without location services turned on. The problem Is that my iPad 3 Is Wi-Fi Only. It can't locate itself when I'm at home. No fixed Wi-Fi signals available..
Can I plug a router into the wall (with no ISP) And register it with Apple?

I'm using a USAA app, I had location services turned on, Although I got an erorr saying I must have them turned on In order to use the service, Or location services cannot locate my position I can't remember now being it's a couple days ago when I tried it. What I do know for sure is that they were turned on I really should've written it down (the error) though I guess.
I assumed my Verizon 4G device would be of no use for my location services. How would this work?
This USAA app is not the only program I have problems with. Star walk distant Suns, And maps I also have problems with. When I drove from Asheville North Carolina to truth or consequences New Mexico There were a few instances location services worked But I had to be parked for a while and had to be near Wi-Fi signals.
Had I known the difference between iPad 3 with just Wi-Fi and iPad 3 with 4G I probably would've sprung for the extra hundred and 30 bucks. I assumed iPad 3 with Wi-Fi had a built-in GPS Which now I know isn't the case.
One of the things that impressed me was driving In a car with a friend of mine Who did have iPad with 4G And the thing tracked us flawlessly.

HT5467 Integrating Location Services with Settings

I was wondering if it's possible to use location services to have an iPhone automatically change settings based on my current location. I'm planning on buying an iPhone 5 on the 7th (the day it's released here in Korea), and it'll be my first iPhone. I've seen my friends use Siri (on their iPhone 4S over the summer) to remind them to do things when they get home, and I'm guessing Siri understood that and notified them when they got home based on their location through location services. So I'm guessing the phone can know when it's "home."
What I'm wondering, is if that can be expanded. For example, can I set a certain location as "work" and then make sure my phone goes into silent mode automatically everytime I go to work? Other examples could be for turning wifi on and off. For example, when I go home my iPhone uses location services to turn wifi on and automatically connect to my home network. Also, since at home and work I have my computer, I don't really need my phone to check for new emails so often, so could I set mail applications to check less frequently then and more frequently when I'm out?
I'm really curious, but this may all be moot for me anyway, since I'm not sure if location services works here in Korea (I don't see why not, but I never know...). And I suppose another less complicated version of this would be to have phone settings integrate with calendars. I have a calendar set just for everyday when I go to work (about 1:00pm~9:00pm, M-F). If I could set my phone to go silent during those times, that would work even without location services. And it would be more convienient than just a standard weekly schedule since it wouldn't go silent from 1-9pm on days I have off, like Christmas, etc.

Siri can do a lot but not what you are expecting:

Can I use the Compass without the locator service running?

It seems to me that when I first got the phone I could use the Compass without have the Lat and Long displayed.
Is that still possible?

The "True North" mode needs the location since the difference from magnetic north varies by location.
An excellent point. I normally use mechanical compasses and do the compensation the same way; hadn't thought of the need for position data to do it the iPhone way!
Hmm .. now I wonder if putting the compass in magnetic North mode will let it work with location services off? Just tried it an the answer appears to be NO.

HT4995 Internationally using Location Services without having data charges. What settings should use on my iPhone 5?

I'm traveling to Europe and I want to use Location Services without having data charges. What settings should use on my iPhone 5? I want to be able to use Trip Advisor City Guides Application to tour around cities for free. I have a Verizon International Plan for my trip, but it is still pricey. I would like to keep my iPhone cell services on for incoming calls, but I want to prevent international data charges. Thanks for your help!

You don't "choose" to use th 3g network.
If you have paid for it in your plan and 3g coverage is available, your phone will automatically use it when necessary.
3g provides faster internet speeds than 2g, so you can watch video or download stuff faster. Wifi is normally faster than 3g.
Your iphone gps is "assisted", meaning it uses network data to calculate your position.
Also, you would still need the network to download maps, directions etc as they are not on your device.

No, there is not.
Sorry.
BTW, you are not addressing Apple here. We are ipod users like you.

Is there a way to use location services while in Europe without incurring roaming charges?

I am traveling in Europe and I want to use a mapping program that requires location services. Is there any way to do this without incurring roaming charges?

Turn off the cellular function and only use wifi.

I have lost my iphone5 recently. Luckily, the location services were on and I could trace the phone twice, but was still unable to get it back. I was wondering, can the thief restore all the settings of the phone with or without the charger?

When the lost mode still on?
As my phone is registered with my ID, can he disturb the whole setting and remove my Apple ID so that it cannot be tracked to my ID anymore?
( I don't need to know how, I need to know yes or no).
Once the find my iphone location service is disabled, it is of no use.
Apparently, I believe apple should make sure that once somebody puts his phone in the "Lost mode", all location services should be turned on by default.
The person should not be allowed to turn it off, and neither delete the "Find my iphone" app. In that way, the service may prove beneficial.

So, the only glimpse of hope for me is through IMEI tracking?
Are there any professionals who do IMEI tracking( I dont mind paying them)? I don't trust the police here, they are damm slow..

Without this feature location service is useless

There is one location feature that Apple needs to program in the location app and in the mobile me website.
The feature I refer to is to show you the last location of your devices even if some one turns off location option in the iphone or ipad.
With this great feature you could find your devices more easily because you could see the last location recorded by your device.
I think about this feature because unfortunately the iphone 4 of my wife was pickpocket, the iphone was on airplane mode because we were outside our country and she only uses it for taking photos and playing games.
After we detected that a pickpocket take the iphone I try to locate it using my iphone 4 app, also I sent multiple messages thinking that maybe the thief would turn wifi on.
After one week I got 2 messages from mobile me, the first one was the following:
Dear MobileMe member,
iPhoneM was located on July 25, 2011 at 12:54 AM.
You can view this device’s location for the next 24 hours with the Find My iPhone app or atme.com/find
The other message I got from mobile me says that the iphoneM has received the message I sent.
Unfortunately I have found that if you disable location services in your iphone or ipad the location feature does not work, your device disappears from your devices list instantly. It could be great that you could see your device after it was turn off the location.
If you think about this you are the only that could program the location on the first time and because of this you are the owner of the device.
Another security feature could be that if you want to turn of the location option in the iphone or the ipad you need to type another time the password of the mobile me account, or type your itunes account password to disable this feature in the ipad app.
I hope that Apples think more about this and in the future we could see the last location of your devices any time. If Apple has think about this great feature now I could see where is the iphone 4 that is lost.

Lawrence please read my post to understand it.
I send a message to locate my iphone, and after one week I received a mail saying that my message was delivered and that my iphone was located, when I go to mobile me to see where the iphone was, I can't view the iphone in my devices list.
Because of this it is important that Apple shows you the last location of your iphone this way you could find or recover a stolen iphone more easily.
About police, NSA, etc, etc, they already have the technology to view where you are at any time, also do you know that even if you turn off your mobile phone it is still sending signals? Have you seen any movie where everybody removes the battery of their phones so that no one can see their location or remotely turn on their phone to listen to their conversations? In phones like the iphone it is not possible to remove the battery this is why I bet that it keep sending signals all the time.
Building more features to locate your iphone will only make it better for you because anyone with the right techonology can already view your location right now.

Location Services in Reminders - Not Working

I'm having issues with my Location Services for my iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.3. Whenever I try and tell Siri a command such as, "Remind me to grab my checkbook when I get home." Siri always responds, "Before I can do that, you'll need to enable Reminders on your iPhone's Location Services."
The problem is that I've enabled the Location Services on Reminders over and over and over again, and yet, anytime I try and get Siri to set up a reminder, it always disables the Location Services behind the scenes and gives the same response, "Before I can do that...".
I can manually input a request with Location Services for Reminders. It's only when I try and use Siri to set up a reminder, that I have any issues.
Anyone else

Responding to an old thread here, but this is because of the way applications that use location services also use the data from Skyhook...
Skyhook is a service that records the MAC addresses of Cell Base stations/towers and wireless access points.
Google Maps vehicles records the wireless AP data at the same time they get street view images.
There was some controversy over this - but they effectively record the location and the MAC address of any AP they find as they drive round. This gets sent to a massive database at Skyhook and is used to either locate without GPS or enhance/aid the GPS information. It's also why the location is always the road outside!
If your location/MAC relationship has not been mapped by Skyhook, Google or others - then the good news is that you can add it - although it can take a month or two at least - to work. The reason is that it depends which database is being used by Skyhook's clients..
