Microsoft Exchange, Mac and Windows

As a business owner, the Apple Mac computer vs.  Microsoft Windows computer competition can be frustrating.  Many companies, especially small businesses, struggle with Mac-Windows coexistence. However, coexisting in a Mac-Windows divided business world may be easier than you think, thanks to Apps4Rent's Exchange hosting services.

The New Windows-Apple-Mac Computer World

Over the past several years, the two have taken their main platforms and built something akin to a Mac Windows computer conglomerate.  For individuals who use both technologies, these converging platforms are a huge boon, especially for business purposes.  Here, we look at a few ways the Mac Windows creation has helped the business world merge the gap between Apple and Microsoft:

Apple Mac Exchange ActiveSync

Exchange with ActiveSync has been around for quite awhile as a Microsoft Exchange  server application.  However, now the Mac-Exchange server integration has improved.  Besides the desktop mail applications such as Apple Mail and Microsoft Entourage, iPhone, and iPod Touch both can be synchronized with Exchange ActiveSync for such things as Push Email, wireless calendar and contact syncing, and remotely wiping the device should you lose it.  Using Microsoft's Autodiscovery service, Apple devices find your Microsoft Exchange server through a secure connection and synchronize the needed applications.  Exchange hosting bridges the Mac Windows divide.

Boot Camp

How often have you had to send a file to a friend or associate to open because your iMac computer doesn't support Windows, or your Windows computer won't open iMac files? For that matter, how often have you come across a program you could really use that wasn't created for your computer system? Introducing Boot Camp, a built-in utility that allows you to install Windows XP and Vista on an Apple Mac computer system.

The Boot Camp utility works in two ways:

1. One system at a time - Boot your iMac with the Mac operating system or with the Windows platform
2. Both systems – Run Apple Mac computer applications and Windows applications at the same time

Parallels & VMware Fusion

Even if your Mac isn't a new version, you can still run Windows applications on your Apple Mac computer with third-party programs such as Parralels and VMware Fusion.  Both programs work much the same as Boot Camp on Intel-based Macs, allowing you to run Windows applications on an iMac computer at the same time.

The most convenient part of a Mac Windows world is that, with the integration that Apple supplies and a hosted Exchange service from Microsoft, all of your applications can be integrated into one compatible bundle.

How To Set Up iPhone Exchange ActiveSync

iPhone 3G Exchange Setup: Why is it so difficult?

There are so many posts on the Internet claiming how easy it is to setup an iPhone 3G to your Microsoft Exchange 2003 / Microsoft Exchange 2007 server.

After running through these steps, if you are still having troubles, contact our Technical Support Line at 480-440-4650 or Skype:  TECHNOKOZ. We charge a FLAT Rate FEE to guarantee the Sync of your iPhone to your Exchange Server. …and remember NO SYNC, no payment!

Google Answers gone wrong!

Here is a sample of the junk on google right now for this iPhone Exchange Setup problem:

Reset the IIS Admin password for the Default Web site. :    Would you like about 2 hours of a repair headache getting your OWA back to working condition? Yes, this suggestion is a REAL show stopper. Avoid it at all cost

1. Change the Server's Domain name to match certificate name. This idea creates major METABASE security corruption.  Not sure of the intentions.  Any event, it will create LONGTERM headaches for your organization.
2. Change the Server's Computer name. Just like idea number 2.  More trouble.

Here the Quick TechnoKOZ iPhone Exchange Setup Guide:

1. Microsoft Exchange 2003 has Service Pack 2 Installed
2. Test IIS (Internet Information Server) components for proper connectivity
3. Configure iPhone to your Exchange Server

Microsoft Exchange 2003 SP2

It is true, Windows 2003 automatic updates does not include the Exchange 2003 Service Pack 2 update, which is necessary for the iPhone to communicate to the Exchange Server.  Here are the steps to determine if service pack 2 is installed:

1. Open your Microsoft Exchange System Manager
2. Expand Servers
3. Properties of Server
4. Check to see if you see Build 7638.2: Service Pack 2

If you do not, install Exchange Service Pack 2

Test IIS 6.0: OMA, Exchange components

1. Open your browser and type:   http://iphone-exchange-setup-ipaddressofserver/OMA (Outlook Mobile Access)
2. Open your browser and type:  http://iphone-exchange-setup- ipaddressofserver/Exchange (Exchange Web)

Both should connect without any error messages.

Setup iPhone to your Exchange Server

There only FOUR components that are typically necessary for a proper exchange – iPhone setup

1. Email Address
2. Exchange User Id
3. Exchange Password
4. Server Address (Also known as Outlook Web Address)

You typically do not need the DOMAIN name for most environments.  We are looking for EXCHANGE ACCOUNT VERIFIED message.  If you receive the message, VERIFICATION FAILED – this is a bad message.  Something is missing or is wrong.

Common iPhone Exchange myths

iPhone Setup Suggestions to avoid

1. Install Configure Outlook Anywhere within IIS / Exchange. [FALSE]  RPC/HTTP : You will view this suggestion all the time on google.  Great way to connect your Outlook 2007/2003 clients to your server, but has nothing to do with ActiveSync.
2.  IMAP Port 143, 993 open on firewall. [FALSE] Old school.  You want Activesync working.  These ports are not necessary for Activesync.  Activesync works over TCP port 443   [you only need one port open on the firewall]
3. Goddady, Verisign, etc. Certificate (Fully Qualified SSL Cert). [FALSE] A simple unsigned and unverified certificate is fine.  Save yourself some time, money, and frustration.  Go with a simple certificate.  If you want a valid certificate, opt for the Godaddy $13.00 special.  Google:   "Godaddy SSL"  you will see a Godaddy adword at the top advertising a $13.00 certificate.
4. Install the certificate on the iPhone.[FALSE]You do not need to install any certificates on the phone.  Save time!!  Don't do it.  It will not improve your chances to sync. This will make the situation worse.  Don't do it.
5. You need to update your iPhone to the latest firmware. [FALSE] If your Windows 2003 Exchange server is configured correctly, your iPhone will connect correctly.
6. Need AT&T Business Data Plan for Exchange to Sync. [FALSE] Again, save your money.  I am not sure why AT&T has this ploy.  Their regular data plan works fine with Exchange.
7. Resetting the IPHONE to factory defaults. [FALSE] Have not seen many times where a factory reset fixed a sync issue.
8. Exchange 2003 Does not Support iPhone. [FALSE] Nice try!  But the iPhone 2.0, 2.2, 3.0, 3.1 works perfectly with Microsoft Exchange  2003 Server.
