Podcasts that require Login problem - General Questions and Answers

I have a subscription to a podcast that costs money and makes you login with a username and password to access the feed. I haven't been able to find any apps for Windows Mobile that can handle the login requirement. There are several apps for PC that work, so I know it can be done. Does anyone know of a program that can handle login required feeds?

Not sure if it will work but have you tried Viigo as an RSS reader, it seems to allow logins to be created.

Password store using exchange public folders?

I am looking for a password store system to use, and would like a decent amount of portability.
I have an exchange email account with public folders, I wondered if there was a prog that could store passwords in a file in that. That file would then be wirelessly synced and I would just need a client to decrypt it on my pocketpc and on my home pc. Then I could, if I lost my phone whilst on the road, set it up easily on a temp machine as I have outlook web access to download the encrypted store from my public folders.
Has anyone set up a similar system? Any advice?
Cheers

sync google reader with rss hub

Hi
Does anyone know an easy way to sync google reader with rss hub on activesync?
thanks
anyone manage this? i want to do this too as i experience freezing on rsshub when any feed has pictures in it so want to see if i get any better performance using google.
Go to settings and export to opml, then import.
ah fantastic. i didnt see that !!! ace thanks
Hello,
I had this problem too and i managed to solve it using OPML export from Google Reader, but I'ts not a good behavior for me because, when I use google reader from the PC and I read some feeds, I have to synch my Diamond and mark those feeds "as read" manually (if you subscribe more than 15 feeds this operation is not much confortable).
I would like to see the "new items" list as I see it in Google reader, all in one feed; a sort of "Feed of Feeds".
I use firefox and I noticed that I can submit the atom feed for my own google reader homepage.
This feed's URL is something like:
"http://www.google.com/reader/atom/user%2F[MyUserId]%2Fstate%2Fcom.google%2Freading-list"
I think this could be the right way to solve my problem but obviously google reader asks for username and password when I try to visit this URL from the PDA's browser (opera mobile).
I saw some sort of option for RSS Hub that can handle username and password for feeds, but probably It's not intended for this use...
Take a look at viigo for a newsreader. It works really well and has some really good features.
It syncs with Google Reader..
thank you very much ... i've installed viigo and is very good with google reader sync.

[Q] Setting own alternative to Google Apps (e.g Docs, Calanda)

Hi there,
Currently, I run my own email / web server and have done so for many years. I would like to store data in the 'cloud' (really a cool name for a server in a date centre), but my users and myself certainly do not trust Google with our data.
The Question
I would like to know if there is any server side software that can offer an equivalent to the account tie-in that is with the google accounts on the Android O/S.
The details
All devices would run CyanogenMod (a bunch of Nexus Ses), and as such would be devoid of Google apps like the Market. I notice on other Android devices, these can have an account integrated into the phone, and said phone can then use this account (typically a gmail address) to hook into the Google Docs, Google Calendar, Contacts and the Google Wiki: These are the types of programmes that I wish to run on our server, and link in with the account as I described afore.
Is there any software (paid or open source) already available that could do some of this?
Many thanks in advance.
Best regards.

There is no way to modify the google apps really (closed source), so you would need to totally write it all from scratch...
But... what would you be wanting? Exchange sync via activesync gives you a calendar and mailbox with push via stock "Email" app.
I am a bit unsure what you are trying to do, but if you rent a VPS or dedicated server in a datacenter, and pay for Windows Server 2008/R2 on it, you could then buy Microsoft Exchange, or perhaps get Server SBS, and connect the devices to the Exchange server?
That would give you email and calendar support (both very good as well). Same for contacts - it syncs them. I am not aware of a "google wiki" you refer to though...
Hi,
Thank-you for your reply, especially during the week-end.
>There is no way to modify the google apps really (closed source), so you would need to totally write it all from scratch...
Modifying GoogleApps nor re-inventing the wheel is not my goal. I only want to add an account (I notice that one can integrate Facebook and Google within Android so maybe this is something I can explore).

We already have our own server(s) in a data centre.
Regarding for your Windows suggestion
Our Debian servers run postfix/dovecot/roundcube very well and with incredibly stability. These have run for nearly 1 year without the need for a single reboot other than for kernel patches. We have upgraded all aforementioned programmes during this time. (Although we'll move to Debian Squeeze soon which'll need a rebuild somewhere). No reason to move away from something so stable to Windows, and then have to pay for it.
Alternatives
I found OpenGoo (now known as Feng) as an alternative. It provides the equivalent of Google Calendar, Google Contacts, Google Docs among other things, although I am unsure how to integrate this into Android. Using a web based front end would be annoying for people I sent an Email to the Feng offices asking if there was any proposed Android integration.
Best wishes.
I did a little more digging, and there are other possibilities. However these will allrequire some method of integrating these with Android clients:
Ubuntu One's Eucalyptus server. These is an Android client for Ubuntu One, so hopefully this'll be available for Eucalyptus at some point.
http://www.ubuntu.com/partners/eucalyptus
project-lipsync
This offers some contacts and calendar sync using rsync over SSH. A simple solution, but a client has to be written for Android, which would be no more than a one button widget that syncs the sqlite dB back to the server for contacts and calendar. Perhaps a documents dir could be added. Still work in progress.
SparkleShare
Looks like there might be quite a bit of work in progress. Uses git for access.

I was hoping for the same thing, or is there a mango app for storing, and inputting passwords??
Lots of views, but no answers or suggestions. Can anyone help??
There is no method for remembering passwords in IE9.
That being said, if you choose to remember login information and you allow cookies in your browser, you shouldn't have too much hassle staying logged into places that you have done so. For example, I log in to Google, have the webpage save my login info, and next time I use Google, i am still logged in. Same for Facebook, Hotmail, Windows Live, Twitter, Foursquare, or whatever else. As long as you have cookies enabled, you should stay logged into the sites (unless of course the site doesn't permit such things).

[Q] Remembering Login Information in Internet Explorer

I'm tryng to get the Username to be remembered on internet sites that require log in. Is there a toggle for it in the settings?
Thanks
Hi
I've checked every corner and did not find what you're looking for. However there are alternatives to the stock Internet Explorer.
UC Browser is one such browser and has a few more features added compared to IE, it also has password and form auto-complete.
Cheers,
My webmail saves my username, but my bank doesn't.
It may have something to do with each login page's setup.
JJ
Every site I visit has the same behavior as PC Browser. Facebook, Hotmail, Google never ask me to inform password again. Can't understand exactly what you want.
Is it a Chrome/Firefox behavior your expected?
