Just a reminder guys, don’t jump on this release blindly. Wait for A&H to have a look and give it their blessing
Hi All
We’ve been testing the MixPad application against the Beta releases of iOS6 and there are a couple of issues due to changes in the API code from Apple.
The most noticeable of these is the screen rotation is currently incorrect for MixPad under IOS6.
We’ve been working on fixing these problems and an update will be available shortly, but there is a delay even after we push the updates to Apple, due to the approval process.
If you’re a MixPad user I’d recommend holding off updating to IOS 6 - if you can, until V1.83 is available.
Cheers

Hi All
Just to keep everyone in the loop, we’ve pushed V1.83 MixPad to Apple for approval today which includes support for iOS6.
Average turnaround time is normally 5 - 6 working days before it will show up in the App Store.
Cheers
Andy.

I assume this will work with firmware v1.83?
Yes, the Major version has to match, therefore this will work with either V1.82 or V1.83 firmware.

Hi All,
it seems to me that there is a big problem with iOS 6.
I can’t log in a network that is not connected to the internet.
The network I use for controlling an iLive-System isn’t connected to the internet.
Some research in the web brought this conclusions:
An iPhone or iPad with iOS 6 installed send a request to
https://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html
when they log in a WLAN.
The request that is sent was sniffed by some guy and is:
"
GET /library/test/success.html HTTP/1.0
Host: www.apple.com
User-Agent: CaptiveNetworkSupport/1.0 wispr
Connection: close
"
The aim of the request is to check, if there is an Captive-Gateway.
As there is no internet-connection, the iPhone and iPad say: “OOPS! The page you requested is not available” and directly logs out of the network, altough I didn’t requested a site or something.
So it seems to me, that at this point it isn’t possible to use MixPad and iLive Tweak in a network, that has no connection to the internet.
I also contacted the apple support and after resetting connections and routers and iphones and turning off push-services and things like that, they are now searching for someone who knows about this request.
I’ll post it here, if there is a solution.
Could some of you check if they have the same problems?
By the way:
My Hardware is: iPhone 4S, iPad2, D-Link DIR-815
The Router is configured as it is recommended by a&h.
Sorry for my bad english, I hope it’s not a big problem,
Cheers, Mario
Oh, that would be not good if thats the case of all ios6 devices…
Hi,
Mario you are correct - Apple changed something in iOS6 which has changed the behaviour of WiFi networks when no internet connection is present.
We have prepared a workaround for this which can be found in our “Knowledgebase”:
I hope this helps.

Hi Ben,
Thank you for your quick support.
Works perfectly for me.
I’m stil in contact with Apple-Support about this problem and I’ll post it here, if they have an other solution.
Now they have to work for the AppleCare money I have payed!
Cheers,
Mario
Hi peoples.
We have a major problem with iOS6 on the iPhone (which is what I use most of the time, once sound check is complete.)
As Mario points out, when connecting to a network that isn’t connected to the internet, the OS seems not to ‘connect’ properly, even though it shows up in the network list, and seems to be connected.
Starting Tweak, it does not show the iDR unit, so can’t connect.
I’m bringing our installation back to my home base this afternoon, to test it more thoroughly, and I’ll revert if we find a solution.
The workaround didn’t work for us.
I will have to try to go back to iOS5 if we can’t fix this problem.
Cheers!

I’m wondering - is that problem common ?
I have iPad and also iPhone 4GS both with iOS6 and none had problems with connection. I didn’t even had to apply the ‘proxy workarround’ mentioned before.
What would be the reson for one to have this problem while other does not? I mean, it’s the same HW, same OS- could it be depending on some user settings or system preferences?

I guess it’s related to a conection to internet(public networks)

Hi ddff,
as I’m still in contact with the Apple-Support it is interesting that you don’t have the problem that is discussed here.
Is it right, that you can log in a wireless network, that has NO CONNECTION to the Internet?
The problem only occures if I connect to a network without internet connection.
If i log in a network, that is connected to the Internet, there is no problem at all.
Please check that and reply your results here.
Thanks
Mario
Hi Mario,
For us, the network is indeed, intentionally, not connected to the internet.
When I attached and shared an internet connection through my laptop, through the router, that didn’t help either.
All the best,
Guy

Yes, I can confirm that my router inside the iDR rack (D-Link DIR 815, only 5 GHz band enabled) is not connected to internet and my iPad 3 with iOS 6 connects without any problems.

Hi,
Just to keep you up to Date:
I forwarded a summary of this thread to the Apple-Support.
They are still searching for a solution.
They are also checking, if there are any differences, between iOS6 releases in different countries.
@ ddff: is your HTTP-Proxy in the iPhone W-Lan settings set to Off, Auto or Manual?
The Apple-Support asked, if anyone has tried to change the static IP-Adresses?
I didn’t try, perhaps someone did?
So far,
Cheers,
Mario
Hallo, I am using an ipad 2 with ios6, it does not connect and the workaround did not work. I tried DHCP, Http Manual , Auto, changed settings on AH idr to dhcp and and and, nothing works, just as a info. I was lucky not to update my laptop, I did the show this weekend on my laptop, but that meant I could not record the show. The mix pad app is bought and version 1.83 the latest.
On my iPad I did not change to connectio- IP is set to DHCP and Http Proxy to OFF.

Hi Mario,
Yes - we tried all different combinations. Changing static IPs, DHCP on and off in various combinations, different subnet … Nothing worked.

Hallo finally !!! Yessss !!!
Ok I did everything right with the workaround. At first I did not put in the DNS, then I put it in and then the ipad showed me it connected to my router (the little ((( markings on the top) great, but I could not connect to the ilive because I got disconnectet every 15 seconds… I tried and tried the whole day. In the end I did the work around again step bey step… nothing… got disconnected again… Next day… there it was, I guess I just had to reboot the i live and my router… it worked, I guess changing all the settings gets the ilive, router or whatever confiused.
So here my settings
WiFi Static
Ip Address 192.168.1.4 (you can choose free)
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Router 192.168.1.11 (like recomended)
DNS 192.168.1.254 (like recomended- this I didn’t need before)
HTTP Proxy Manual
Server a (like recomended)
Port 1 (like recomended)
Authentication Off (this is not the password for the router)
Did a reboot as follows… 1st i Live IDR… 2nd Router…3rd i Pad (G2)
And there it was. So far it is stable I had it run for a couple days several hours a day. Everything like before iOS 6.
Hope that helps… even though Allen Heath explained everything in the workaround, but I guess sometimes 100 times reading it does not work, it 101 times to get it…
