Under some re-construction as of 10/10/11. New look and layout, couple things I need to fix. :)

iPhone iOS4 and Exchange Server

Apple has published a fix/patch that may help with any some iOS4 issues you have on your iPhone 3G, 3GS, or 4 for those of you who updated software or phones.  Rather than do this and by combining what I leared from Apple, I made a change on my Exchange 2007 configuration that seems to have helped based on information in this link from Microsoft.  I lowered my minimum heartbeat time from 60 to 30 seconds and this seems to have helped, or I seem to be able to send attachments now.  I am guessing that large attachments may fail still.  Problem seems to occur on iPad iOS 3.2 also, but less frequently.  

If your company assigns a .local domain via VPN then it will fail also as wireshark seems to show it trying to multicast with no failover ( or maybe just timeout ) to unicast addresses.  It looks like Apple has a RFC out for this but seems like poor judgement to implement it in production.

[update]

Wondering if apple did any testing at all with enterprise users.  

  • .local unicast addresses TS3389
  • mail, contacts, calendar sync problems TS3398

 

watch world cup on iphone / ipad

orb-espn3espn3.com is streaming the world cup games live but it won't work ( currently ) on Apple devices such as iphone, ipad, or ipod touch.  Orb has been kind enough to fix this with these instructions.  It is $9.99 for the app, but pretty handy for other streaming to your iDevices also.  I have used it for some time to watch live shows when travelling as it allows you to stream at different rates.  What is nice about this solution is that you do not need a TV tuner card for it to work.  

iPhone 4.0

Per switched.com article, iPhone OS 4.0 will have some great new features if you use cisco ASA or webvpn and exchange for email.  Newer Cisco routers and security servers use SSL based VPN clients.  They work very well with vista or windows 7 32 and 64 bit OS versions but there has been no client for many mobile phones, including the iPhone.  With the release of the 4.0 software this should be solved allowing corporate users to connect securely.  

Additionally, an exchange power user complaint for a long time has been the use of multiple exchange clients.  This is mainly a problem for consultants or owners of multiple businesses who have had to choose what their primary exchange server is going to be.  With the release of Outlook 2010 and iPhone 4.0 this appears to be solved for workstation and mobile phone, though I am guessing you will also have to upgrade your exchange server too.
