  • WPA-Enterprise WIFI dropping after IOS 6 Upgrade

    We use WPA-Enterprise authentication for our WIFI and since upgrading to IOS 6 the connection needs to be reautenticated everytime the iPad is unlocked.  This is a major inconveience.  With IOS 5 you only autenticated one time and whenever you unlocked your iPad you were already connected.
    These are the required settings which IOS 6 still automatically navigates, but it doesn't maintain the login name and password (which autheticates to a RADIUS server):
    Network Authentication: WPA-Enterprise
    Data Encryption: AES or TKIP
    EAP method: PEAP
    Inner EAP method: MS-CHAP v2
    Check Use Windows user name and password
    Uncheck Validate Server certificate

    It is forgetting the network everytime the iPad sleeps - even when it doesn't require an unlock passwod.

  • HT4994 i did the recent upgrade for my iphone 4s (ios6) and lost all my contacts.  How do I get them back?  They are stored on my pc on microsoft outlook

    I did the ios6 upgrade on my iphone 4s and lost all my contacts.  Can I get them back?  They are stored on my pc on microsoft outlook.  thanks

    Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
    If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
    I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

  • Data respond slow since the iOS6 upgrade while using WIFI

    It seems as if ever since I upgraded my phone to the iOS6 upgrade, my phone takes forever to upload the app store, or even load data on some apps such as a stock market game simulator. I am using WIFI at the time, I'm not sure why the app store is taking forever to upload apps that I either search for or just the apps on the main page. This has happened also while trying to listen to a podcast, it just seems like when it comes to using data on the phone, while on WIFI, things are either not loading or taking forever to load; I know for a fact it is not the internet connection because I'm using the WIFI at my job and I work for a telecommunications company. Please respond if you're having similar issues.

    Since upgarding to iOS6 my iphone 4 takes ages to load the app store...wifi working fine i think its because of the load on the server from everybody rushing to upgrade...Apple should have thought about this bottle neck before rolling out the upgrade

  • TS1702 After I have upgraded to the new iOS 6.1.2, the email software doesn't work and is not downloading.  While before it was working fine.

    After I have upgraded to the new iOS 6.1.2, the email software doesn't work and is not downloading.  While before it was working fine.
    How to fix this?

    There seems to be massive amounts of problems with every aspect of iOS 6. From what I understand all you can do is try and reset your device and pray that Apple bequeaths working software next time or allows users to revert to iOS 5 while they search for someone who knows what they are doing. Perhaps you will need to use an alternate email app until then? (Although, Gmail seems to be the only one that works properly)

  • TS4124 Why can I no longer download a single song to my iphone since the ios6 upgrade?

    Since the iOS6 upgrade apple have removed the cloud icon by songs on the iphone that were not downloaded to the phone. Is there no longer a way to download a single song or even know which songs are on your device and which aren't?

    Is it because of the iPhone, or is it because the email was sent from an iMac running Yosemite?

  • Just wondering if anyone has been able to find a way around the huge drop in speed using VPN on iPad3 with the latest upgrade to the IOS?

    Just wondering if anyone has found a solution to the problem of huge drop in speed when using VPN since the latest upgrade to the IOS kicked in?

    Hey,
    Thanks for the reference, the Web site explains a lot. And yes, my prefessor is from another country, so understanding his english is a little rough.
    I have read the info, and tried to apply it to my problem but the simple program will still not run. It compiles fine but when I type the following in cprompt:
    java DisplayData <- (my file name)
    I still get the same error message. I understand that it cannot find the class path, but his explanation of what to do about my problem isn't clear. Or maybe I'm not understanding him correctly.
    If you can assist any further help, it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Wifi drops after restart

    Since upgrading to OS X 10.8.2 I have to manually connect to my Wifi network after restarting. This is the case with two different AirPort Extremes and two different MacBook Pros. Any ideas?

    Go to to your desktop and in the Dock open System Preferences->Network tab. Then in the Network tab at the top in the 'Location' bar use the pull-down to select 'Edit Locations'. In the Locations pop-up click the + button and add a custom named Location (like Home or School, something along that line where you are located). Don't worry because this custom name Location will act the same as Automatic. Just make sure you save this new custom named Location and save it. Lastly rejoin your wireless network.
    Another fix is to open /Applications/Utilties/KeyChain Access and delete the entries for you wireless network and when you re-add your password let it save again. This can also help, good luck.

  • Why is it impossible to buy the LR6 upgrade for the LR5 that I have bought one year ago?

    Hello, I have spent about four hours trying to get the LR6 upgrade for the perfectly legally bought LR5.
    Nothing is possible. The CC contract does not apply where I live.
    It is the only choice I have in France.
    The ID I got from Adobe when I last updated does not pass through.
    Well...I'll either do the things when I go to South Africa or maybe I use a proxy or a torrent.
    This is a crazy situation and not for the first time, either. The LR4 I got in Norway after a similar frustrating thing.
    And no, 'hosts' file has been cleaned already.
    I cannot understand an enterprise fighting against its willing clients.
    Madmen!
    The tech support guy was very friendly but his advice got me nowhere.
    Let's torrent now!

    WOW! Man! And now a short explanation why this link is such a well kept
    secret. While you are at it, explain to me why I had to actually create
    (again) a new, clean Adobe account to avoid the CC deal? In the French shop
    with my old accounts, that was the only possibility available.
    Your sales department must be from another planet completely.
    Once upon a time I only managed to download the LR 4 in NORWAY!
    The French shop did not feel like it.
    LR 5 upgrade was so smooth that I thought you had changed the crew but now
    the LR6 business set another record as it comes to idiocy.
    Yes, I got finally the stuff I wanted. I went to the FINNISH shop and got
    it from there with a brand new account.
    It took me two hours on three days to get this upgrade.
    You must be pretty f proud of yourselves there!!!
    Why do people pirate Adobe stuff? Because it is so difficult to buy it!

  • Which would be the best upgrade for the money?

    Here is my situation:
    My school has a six year life cycle for macs, and we have a 2006 Mac Pro (1,1) that is reaching the end of its useful life. I had recently tried Final Cut Pro X and it pains me to say that it took 4 hours to export a 14 minute 720p video. This mac is used for our school news and has to be a beast video editing machine. We have been saving money for quite some time and can now afford a decent upgrade. So my question to you is which would be the best upgrade for the money: a 21.5 inch iMac with an i7, 8gb RAM, and Fusion drive or the cheapest Mac Pro with after market SSD? This mac needs to be the fastest at Final Cut Pro X and able to usefully last us another 6 years. Please help I am forever perplexed with this!

    Id go for the I7 with minimum 8 Gig ram and as much SSD as your money will buy.
    It's not only about having a fast CPU but just as important is to get the data in and out as fast a possible.
    Without a real fast drive your CPU will spend a lot of time just waiting for the data to get to it and then wait more time while it has to write back to the drive.
    You can always add a slower drive for archiving and large amounts storage.
    Cheers!

  • HT5622 I am stuck on the IOS7 upgrade at the rescue e-mail portion?

    I am stuck on the IOS7 upgrade at the rescue e-mail portion?

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • The screen resolution in 1920x1200 dropped on my MacBook Pro 17". Seems like I have not the same pixels. There are also vertical, thin lines on the screen. Makes the screen look milky. Anybody knows what's going on and how to fix it?

    I'm having trouble printing jewel cases since the last upgrade. The song titles all bunch up together and are unreadable. Can you help?

    I can’t figure out how to import music.
    Import it into iTunes first, then use the media browser in iMovie '08 to locate it.
