iPhone not displaying in Windows Explorer in Windows 7
If you're anything like me and you're constantly filling up your iPhone with photos, you regularly need to copy them off and clean it up! But if you ever plug your iPhone into your Windows PC and it does not show up in Windows Explorer, you may need to uninstall your iPhone driver and re-install. Here's how you do that:
1. Plug in your iPhone, and open up windows explorer. If you don't see your iPhone show up in the left hand pane under Computer, down to the bottom of the list, you probably need to un-install the iPhone driver.
2. Click Start, right-click Computer, then left-click Manage
3. Click on Device Manager in the left pane, then click the arrow next to Universal Serial Bus controllers. Right-click the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver. Click on Uninstall in the menu.
4. click the check box next to "Delete the driver software for this device." Then click okay.
5. A box will come up that says "Confirm Device Uninstall" that says "Uninstalling devices...". This process will take some time, and you will most likely need to unplug your phone after some time. Once you do, this box will close.
6. Plug your phone back in, and you should see in the bottom right hand corner a bubble that the "Device driver software installed successfully".
7. You may need to unplug and re-plug in your iPhone, then open up Windows Explorer and you should see your iPhone list in the left hand pane listed under Computer.
Also, please check your phone to make sure you have allowed your PC to access the files on your iPhone. If you see this message, press Allow.

Using hMailServer to relay Stratagy ES UM Messages using Authentication
If you've ever had a request to have voicemails forwarded to email from a Toshiba phone system using Strategy ES, there is some tweaking you'll need to do but it is possible with a third party mail service called hMailServer.
hMailServer can be downloaded at http://www.hmailserver.com/index.php?page=download
a.) Login to your voicemail server
b.) Start Toshiba Network eManager (icon on desktop)and login
c.) Click on Connect to Equipment -> check the equipment to connect to, then click Connect
1. Configure Stratagy to relay all mail to a specific IP address and port
Click on Stratagy ES at the top -> Then Click VM System -> VM Parameters
Define
an IP address and SMTP port (other than 25) to which Stratagy will relay UM
messages. Separate the values with a comma, without spaces.
To configure this, expand Protocols, and then click on SMTP.
hMailServer can be downloaded at http://www.hmailserver.com/index.php?page=download
a.) Login to your voicemail server
b.) Start Toshiba Network eManager (icon on desktop)and login
c.) Click on Connect to Equipment -> check the equipment to connect to, then click Connect
1. Configure Stratagy to relay all mail to a specific IP address and port
Click on Stratagy ES at the top -> Then Click VM System -> VM Parameters
sys_smtpserver_gateway
–
sys_smtpserver_host –
2. Install hMailServer on
the MAS
Install hmailServer using
default values. After installation, open the hMailServer Administrator, and
enter the password you defined in the installation wizard.
3. Configure incoming SMTP
settings
First, we need to change the
port on which hMailServer will listen for incoming SMTP mail.
Select TCP/IP
Routes, click on the SMTP port and then click Edit.
Change the TCP/IP port to
the one that you defined in Stratagy's sys_smtpserver_gateway parameter, and
then click Save. Click OK to confirm restarting the hMailServer service.
4. Define the IP range to
relay
We must specify the IP address ranges that are allowed to
relay through this mail server.
Select Incoming Relays, and then click Add.
Enter the IP address range that is allowed to
relay through the server. For maximum security, enter only the IP address of
the MAS
5. Add an IP range that is
allowed to send mail into hMailServer without authentication
Since Stratagy ES sends UMK emails unauthenticated, we need
to define special properties for mail coming in from the IP address of th eMAS
so that hMailServer will accept these incoming messsages without
authentication. Click on IP Ranges, and then click the Add button.
Give the range an identifying
name (e.g., MAS), enter the MAS IP address into the lower and Upper IP range
fields, and configure the settings as shown above. Make sure to set the
priority value to a high number so that this rule will be evaluated first, and
disable all authentication requirements.
6. Configure outbound
authentication
There are two methods that we
can set up the outbound authentication:
1.
Relay all mail through a particular server with authentication, or
2. Relay mail addressed to
specific domains using authentication, and all other domains are send without
authentication.
Relaying all mail through a
particular server with authentication.
This method is used to send all
mail, addressed to any email domain, through the same email server with
authentication. To configure this, expand Protocols, and then click on SMTP.
Select the Delivery of
e-mail tab. Enter the Local host name of the system. This is the
name by which this server will identify itself, and will generally be the same
domain name that was entered into the sys_smtpserver_host parameter.
Enter the server to which all
email will be relayed under Remote host name, and the TCP port to which
it will connect.
Enable Server requires
authentication, and enter then username and password to be used as the
credentials.
If SSL is required, enable Use SSL.
