Re: Apps on the iPad.

2011-11-24 Thread Ronda Brown
Hi Roger,

You are not the first person who uses a different iTunes ID to your MobileMe / 
iCloud ID to get caught by iTunes App Store.

When you set up a New iPhone / iPad, it automatically signs you into the App 
Store with whatever ID you set the iPhone / iPad up with.
So when you purchase Apps on the iPhone / iPad , they are on a different 
account than your computer and therefore you receive the not authorized 
error. 

This was why I asked you to  Check that the Settings on your iPad App Store 
(Settings  Store - Apple ID: x...@.xxx)   in iTunes is identical.
Changing your iPad settings to match your iTunes App Store Account ID would 
correct the problem.

Good to hear it is sorted for you now.

Cheers,
Ronni

 Hi Ken, you’re welcome,
 
 Good to hear the problem is sorted. 
 As to “Why it happened”? I’m not sure, but I suspect as I mentioned below in 
 reply to Roger perhaps you disconnected the iPad before it had finished 
 syncing and rebooting after installing iOS5 or updates since. Or it could 
 have been a permission problem or ID.
 
 The /Users/Shared/SC Info” is related to iTunes as you are now aware of 
 ;-). Specifically it contains an invisible file, SC Info.sidb, the iTunes 
 database of decryption keys. If you open the Macintosh HD  Users  Shared 
 folder in Finder, you won't see SC Info folder because the Invisible file 
 system attribute for that folder has been enabled in order to hide it. 
 
 If you like using Terminal try:
 
 ls -al /Users/Shared/SC\ Info/
 
 Where you'll see the file. 
 
 If I execute the same ls command this is what I see:
 ronni$ ls -al /Users/Shared/SC\ Info/
 total 408
 drwxrwxrwx@  4 ronni  wheel 136 11 May  2011 .

 -rw-rw-rw-@  1 ronni  wheel  200356  9 May  2011 SC Info.sidd
 
 Now, I don’t  profess to understand UNIX … and I only understand half of 
 what I read ;-)
 The data from the ls command provides details about the ownership, 
 permissions, size, etc of that folder (line ending in .), its enclosing 
 folder (line ending in .. — the Shared folder), and the file(s) contained 
 in the SC Info folder (line ending in SC Info.sidb”  “SC Info.sidd).
 The two files SC Info.sidb”   SC Info.sidd relate to iTunes purchases, 
 and the computer/user's authorisation to play same.
 
 None of the Apple Developer documents address the specific purpose of the 
 SC Info.sidb. In investigating this file, and comparing it with the same 
 file on some other Macs, it was found that this file's size is non-zero if 
 one has purchased content from iTMS and a little more digging led to the 
 understanding that this contains descriptor keys, perhaps related to 
 authorizing  (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420) a Mac to play purchased 
 music.
 
 The data in the first four columns is explained in Figure 2 of 
 Troubleshooting permissions issues in Mac OS X”, (just in case link doesn’t 
 work) http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963?viewlocale=en_US   though one 
 also needs to read the earlier part of that document to understand what 
 columns 1, 3, and 4 are about.
 
 The rest of the columns are explained in the section entitled The Long 
 Format of man (UNIX manual) page for the ls (list directory contents) 
 command. (Just in case the Link does not work)

Fwd: Re: Printing from iPad 1

2011-11-24 Thread Merv Bond
Hi Ronni and List Folk
Ronni, to do a test run on my iPad 2 I visited the first site that you 
listed: How to Enable Airprint for Windows and Use any Printer and 
downloaded and installed an application called 'AirActivator'
I printed a Pages document - fine.
Inserted a photograph in the Pages document and printed - fine.
Tried to print a photograph not in a document - timed out.

I next visited the teckrepublic site mentioned below.
Same experience except that with the photo I got an error message 
Document type not supported. It was a jpg and the downloaded 
application 'PrintCentralPro' listed jpgs as acceptable.

Has anyone had experience with either of these applications, or an 
alternative, and successfully printed photos?

 You don’t give us information on what iOS your relative has on the iPad (iOS4

Indeed. Set up a public, or shared Dropbox. Not sure of free limits though but 
you can set password security, so long as you don't mind using Web 2 tools and

Re: Apps on the iPad.

2011-11-23 Thread cm
Hmm. That's strange. I wonder Ken if you could look in the App Store app on 
your iPad. When you select the Purchased tab at the bottom of the screen, do 
you see every app that you have ever purchased using that Apple ID? You should 
see any iPad or iPhone app downloaded either in iTunes, your iPhone (if you 
have one), or your iPad. This should include the 5 problem apps and all the 
others. If it does not, you can write an email to Apple technical support and 
they will likely be able to fix it.

 Now, I don’t  profess to understand UNIX … and I only understand half of what 
 I read ;-)
 The data from the ls command provides details about the ownership, 
 permissions, size, etc of that folder (line ending in .), its enclosing 
 folder (line ending in .. — the Shared folder), and the file(s) contained 
 in the SC Info folder (line ending in SC Info.sidb”  “SC Info.sidd).
 The two files SC Info.sidb”   SC Info.sidd relate to iTunes purchases, 
 and the computer/user's authorisation to play same.
 
 None of the Apple Developer documents address the specific purpose of the SC 
 Info.sidb. In investigating this file, and comparing it with the same file 
 on some other Macs, it was found that this file's size is non-zero if one has 
 purchased content from iTMS and a little more digging led to the 
 understanding that this contains descriptor keys, perhaps related to 
 authorizing  (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420) a Mac to play purchased 
 music.
 
 The data in the first four columns is explained in Figure 2 of 
 Troubleshooting permissions issues in Mac OS X”, (just in case link doesn’t 
 work) http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963?viewlocale=en_US   though one also 
 needs to read the earlier part of that document to understand what columns 1, 
 3, and 4 are about.
 
 The rest of the columns are explained in the section entitled The Long 
 Format of man (UNIX manual) page for the ls (list directory contents) 
 command. (Just in case the Link does not work)

 When you did the update to iOS5 did you do a backup BEFORE installing the

 have to let it complete a sync after installing the  iOS Update.
 
 You are definitely sure you have the same ID setup on your iPad and in

 In iTunes  Preferences  Store - Automatic Downloads - Apps is checked?
 And the same email address as is on your iPad?
 
 If everything is correct and setup correctly, you might need to delete

 1.  Quit iTunes and any other open applications until only Finder is open.
 2.  Choose Go  Go to Folder.

Hi all,

I have some apps on my iPad the for some reason have stopped responding, and
also refuse to sync with iTunes, displaying a message that says that these
half a dozen or so apps cannot be synced because the computer has not been
authorised, although it has.

Would appreciate some info on how to reload these apps or fix the problem,
would also like to know what causes it?

Many thanks

Re: Apps on the iPad.

Hi Roger,

I’ve never experienced this problem and I purchase Apps on my iPad and also in 
iTunes.
When I connect my iPad to my computer, iTunes Opens and backups iPad then syncs 
automatically  I see message  “Transferring Purchases from Ronda Brown’s iPad 
… waiting for items to copy”. 

When you did the update to iOS5 did you do a backup BEFORE installing the 
Update and after installation finished, wait until it does a Sync? You have to 
let it complete a sync after installing the  iOS Update.

You are definitely sure you have the same ID setup on your iPad and in iTunes

Check that the Settings on your iPad App Store (Settings  Store - Apple ID:

In iTunes  Preferences  Store - Automatic Downloads - Apps is checked? And

If everything is correct and setup correctly, you might need to delete the SC 
Info Folder:

1.  Quit iTunes and any other open applications until only Finder is open.
2.  Choose Go  Go to Folder.
3.  Type /Users/Shared/SC Info and click Go.

Printing from iPad 1

2011-11-19 Thread Merv Bond
An elderly relative has an iPad 1 and wants to print directly from it to 
a printer. An added complication is that her laptop runs on Windows.  I 
looked at Printopia 2 but it appears to be designed to work with Mac 
computers only. Is anyone aware of software, or a wirelss printer, that 
would allow her to print directly from her iPad? She could not tell me 
her operating system but I will find out at my next visit.
Thank you.

I guess I didn't read the web site carefully enough, although it does make 
sense that it would be restricted to certain file types. It seemed to good to 
be true that it could just be used for general storage. That would fly in the

Pretty interesting devices, Ronni. I really like the idea of the iPad external

I'm fascinated to know just how these things work with software which is

Re: HyperDrive iFlashDrive HyperDrive HardDrive for iPad

2011-11-15 Thread peta
Hi Carlo

I was happy to read your email this morning.

Yesterday afternoon I had an alert for an iTunes update, for which I clicked 
Yes, and the update quickly did what it was supposed to do.

Last night I bought and downloaded from iTunes a Leonard Cohen album.  Nearly 
every song quickly downloaded as it should, - however one song just would not 
complete.  Then I saw the message that there was over an hour of download time 
still to go!  For one song?  I did not think so, and managed to Pause the 
process.

When I read your email below re the Apple update and your comment that
possibly caused an unusually high load on the server as millions of copies of 
songs that people had previously downloaded from file sharing sites or had 
ripped from CD's are downloaded anew from the Apple servers in full 256 bit AAC 
glory. :-)   -  I went back into iTunes and clicked on the Download Previous 
Purchase button.

Terrific, just less than two seconds and that last song has downloaded 
successfully!

 Entirely out of my control,not sure exactly what has been happening all day. 
 I have not received any WAMUG messages until now, and by checking the WAMUG 
 Archives, I still have not received all messages.
 
 The iCloud Mail Server 'p99-imap.mail.me.com' has been down ... ‘Down  Up’ 
 ‘Up  Down’ all day, and doing weird things.
 When it came back on it sent some of my messages, then went down and when it 
 kept coming back on intermittently it must have been sending my previously 
 sent message ‘again' to WAMUG.
 I could not access my iCloud email on the web interface either.
 
 Hell,  6 you say Stuart  … my goodness that is a mess!!!
 
 Also the Apple Discussions were down around the same time, so think Apple

 We will see if this message gets through to WAMUG Mailing list … and lets

Hi Ronni

They don't have a Distributor in Australia as far as I can tell, but I've sent 
them an email to see the possibility of getting them.
Will keep you (and others if interested) up with information as I receive it.
Will be interesting to see what their pricing appears like (with freight etc) 
to get them into the country. (And if feasible to get a few in without losing 
money on it,..lol.)

 Pretty interesting devices, Ronni. I really like the idea of the iPad

 distributors in Oz…
 
 I'm fascinated to know just how these things work with software which is

Hi Peter,

If you mean the  HyperDrive Hard Drive for iPad:
http://www.hypershop.com/HyperDrive-iPad-Hard-Drive-s/183.htm

It is only for Photos and Videos  you require the Apple iPad Camera Connection 
Kit.
Store up to 1TB of photos and videos”. Store some videos for a long plane 
flight.

You can connect the HyperDrive to a Mac or PC using a USB cable, and copy 
photos and video files to it just like an ordinary hard drive.
Photos that you transfer onto the HyperDrive can be previewed on its own 
screen, before you connect it to your iPad. 
You can only connect the HyperDrive to an iPad by using the USB adaptor that’s 
part of Apple’s Camera Connection Kit.

You connect the HyperDrive to the Camera Connection Kit and then use the screen 
on the HyperDrive to locate the folders that you want to transfer onto the 
iPad. The contents of each folder then appear on the iPad’s screen. 
You can tap the Import All button on the iPad to import the entire folder, or 
tap on individual photos or videos you want to import. 
Your files are added to the Photos app on the iPad, ready for viewing. 

An Article explaining here: 
http://www.macworld.com/article/153935/2010/09/hyperdrive.html

Once you’ve connected the HyperDrive to your iPad, you can use the 
HyperDrive’s built-in LCD screen to select a folder you’d like to access and 
the folder contents will appear in the iPad’s Photos app as if they were from a 
camera or regular SD card.

Since files can only be transfered onto an iPad through the Photos app, you’ll 
only be able to use the HyperDrive to view iPad-compatible photos and videos. 
Another downside is the inability to transfer files from the iPad onto the 
HyperDrive—you can only get files onto the HyperDrive through standard 
computers or memory cards.

Despite these limitations, the HyperDrive could prove useful to travelers who 
want to carry more videos and photos than their iPads can store, as well as 
photographers or videographers who need a way to quickly back up their memory 
cards without having to tote around a laptop.”

Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Peter,

I have to take more time in reading a message thoroughly  understanding what 
the person is actually referring to :-(

I’ll have another go at answering your query …If you did mean the  'HyperDrive 
iFlashDrive’ by my link above, which is the not the ‘HyperDrive HardDrive for 
iPad that I thought you meant …. please read on ;-)

With the iFlashDrive app, users will be able to transfer, store, view and 
manage files on the iDevice and iFlashDrive. 
The app also comes with built-in music player, voice recorder, text editor and 
contact backup. 

Supported Documents: Pages, Keynotes, Numbers, PDF, TXT, RTF, RTFD, DOC, XLS, 
PPT, DOCS, XLSX, PPTX, HTML, VCF
--
iFlashDrive by HyperDrive:

The cobranded HyperDrive/PhotoFast iFlashDrive, available in three different 
capacities of 8GB, 16GB and 32GB, has a USB connector to connect to computers 
and functions like any USB flash drive in the market in that users can transfer 
data between their computer and the iFlashDrive. What differentiates 
iFlashDrive from other USB flash drives is that on the other side of the 
device, opposite to the USB connector, is an Apple-approved 30-pin dock 
connector that works with the iPhone, iPad and iPod to perform two way data 
transfer, like how traditional USB flash drives work with computers.

iFlashDrive works with a free companion app which users will be prompted to 
download from the Apple App Store when they first connect the iFlashDrive to 
their iDevice. http://itunes.apple.com/tw/app/i-flashdrive/id440631990?mt=8
With the app, users will be able to transfer files between the iFlashDrive and 
iDevice and access the following features:

- Open any file natively supported by the iDevice
- Option to open files in other third party apps
- Built-in music player, voice recorder and text editor
- Access and import photos/videos from the iDevice library
- Backup and restore iDevice contact list
- File management (create/copy/move/delete/rename)
- Send out files as email attachments

HyperDrive iFlashDrive is the easiest solution to transfer and share files 
between different iDevices and computers, says Daniel Chin, President of Sanho 
Corporation. iFlashDrive does not require iTunes, Internet or wireless 
networks to transfer data which makes it perfect for quick instant transfers 
between different iDevices, when computers or networks are not present like on 
airplanes, basements or out of signal areas, he concludes.

Specifications
Capacity: 8GB, 16GB and 32GB
Dimensions: 2.66 x 1.39 x 0.41 / 67.5 x 35.4 x 10.4 mm
Weight: 0.71oz / 20g
Compatibility: iOS 4 / iOS 5 / Windows XP / Windows 7 / OS X
Supported iDevices: 
iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPad 2, iPad, iPod touch 4G (requires iOS 4  above)
iPhone 3GS, iPod touch 3G (requires iOS 5)
File types that can be opened by iFlashDrive app: 
Video: M4V, MP4, MPV
Photo: JPG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, CUR, ICO, XBM
Music: MP3, M4A, AAC, AIF, AIFF, CAF, WAV
Documents: Pages, Keynotes, Numbers, PDF, TXT, RTF, RTFD, DOC, XLS, PPT, DOCS, 
XLSX, PPTX, HTML, VCF 
System Requirements: Free companion app downloadable from Apple App Store  
Transfer Speed: 10MB/s for USB, 100KB/s at iDevice side (due to limitation by 
Apple's transfer protocol)

Hi Stuart,

No, I did not have a book resting on the send button ….
Entirely out of my control,not sure exactly what has been happening all day. 
I have not received any WAMUG messages until now, and by checking the WAMUG 
Archives, I still have not received all messages.

The iCloud Mail Server 'p99-imap.mail.me.com' has been down ... ‘Down  Up’ ‘Up 
 Down’ all day, and doing weird things.
When it came back on it sent some of my messages, then went down and when it 
kept coming back on intermittently it must have been sending my previously sent 
message ‘again' to WAMUG.
I could not access my iCloud email on the web interface either.

Hell,  6 you say Stuart  … my goodness that is a mess!!!

Also the Apple Discussions were down around the same time, so think Apple were

We will see if this message gets through to WAMUG Mailing list … and lets hope

Two a/c on iPad - Two inboxes?

2011-10-29 Thread Merv Bond
I have set up my email account and my wife's email account on Mail on my 
iPad. Initially I had my account set up through Mail. I tried adding my 
wife's account through Mail but found that it overwrote my account.
Using Settings I was able to put in my account but we now share the same 
Inbox. Is there a way of having two Inboxes and applying a filter that 
places my mail in one box and my wife's in another?
Help appreciated.

They already separate them to Mailboxes for each account. You can Step back 
from one inbox to another.

/quote
On each account screen, you can see the number of unread messages in each 
mailbox.

Tap a mailbox to see its messages. Unread messages have a blue dot  next to 
them.

If you have more than one mail account, tap Mailboxes to switch between 
accounts. To view all of your messages in a unified inbox, tap All Inboxes.

If you haven't already downloaded it, I'd recommend getting iBooks from the App

Re: csv file to iPad

2011-10-27 Thread Merv Bond
Hi Daniel
Imported Thunderbird's email addresses into Address Book on my computer 
successfully. However, on connecting to iPad I couldn't find an Address 
Book - am I correct in assuming I use the Contacts file. If so, I can't 
see a ready way to sync it with my Address Book. No doubt it is senile 
blindness, but guidance appreciated.

 Hi Merv

 Import into the Address Book on the computer, then (assuming you're syncing 
 this already), sync the iPad via iTunes. Data will transfer across from the 
 Address Book on the computer to the iPad.
 (If not already syncing the Address Book then once the iPad is plugged in, go 
 to the iPad (under Devices) then to the Info Tab and tick on Address Book.).

 A note with .csv files. Just be wary with some of it, as they can need a 
 tidy up and some of the info doesn't always get read well. So pays to go 
 through and clean up the Address book after the csv import before syncing 
 with iPad.

 Also, make sure you've got a good backup of Address Book before you start. 
 (User folder - Library - Application Support - AddressBook is where all the 
 data is stored.). I normally make a copy of that onto a drive or desktop 
 before I start. :))

 Easy :)

Re: csv file to iPad

2011-10-27 Thread Daniel Kerr
hi Merv

Yes, it's through Contacts on iDevice.
When the iPad is plugged into iTunes you select the iPad under Devices.
It will show you Summary. Beside that is Info . Click on that.
It will then have a tick box to sync address book (or something worded like 
that. Ensure that's ticked and Click Apply to save those changes.
Then when it syncs it should move everything across.

Kind regards

 Import into the Address Book on the computer, then (assuming you're syncing

 Address Book on the computer to the iPad.
 (If not already syncing the Address Book then once the iPad is plugged in, 
 go to the iPad (under Devices) then to the Info Tab and tick on Address 
 Book.).
 
 A note with .csv files. Just be wary with some of it, as they can need a 
 tidy up and some of the info doesn't always get read well. So pays to go 
 through and clean up the Address book after the csv import before syncing 
 with iPad.
 
 Also, make sure you've got a good backup of Address Book before you start. 
 (User folder - Library - Application Support - AddressBook is where all the 
 data is stored.). I normally make a copy of that onto a drive or desktop 
 before I start. :))
 
 Easy :)

Travelling Europe with iPad and iPhone4

2011-10-26 Thread Tim Law
I've most often seen questions about travelling with iPad and iPhones, so 
thought I'd send the group my recent experience which may help someone from 
asking the question over again.

I have just spent a month travelling France, Switzerland, Austria and Germany. 
Most of the time we were in France and Germany. 
In Australia I have a data plan with Telstra that gives me 1Gb per month. 

A French friend bought a SIM card for me in France for the Orange network, with 
the aim of limiting the roaming charges on my Telstra SIM. When we arrived in 
France, I paid 35€ onto this pre paid SIM card, about A$50, and left 3G and 
data turned on, thinking this was a sensible option. I was looking forward to 
using the mapping, internet for searches for accommodation, local things to do 
etc. All the features I was used to in Australia. 

The next morning I got a text from Orange to say I'd got 3€ left. Eeek. I'd not 
used the iPhone at all, it was chewing through this data all by itself. And 
what's more, part of the place we stayed had good WiFI connection. Part of it 
didn't. When my French friend navigated my account usage on the Orange website, 
he found a long list of data downloads, each with a flagfall of 50c (I think), 
and whilst the data downloaded was minimal, the time was what was being charged 
for.  This is unlike Australia where we get charged for the amount of data, not 
the time. At least that's how my Telstra plan works for 3G and data. 

Lesson learnt, I turned off both 3G and Data, loaded another 20€ onto the SIM, 
and resolved to never turn them on again. 

What I found was that calls and texts from France into Germany or anywhere else 
incurred international rates.
When we travelled into Switzerland, Austria or Germany, all calls and texts 
were charged at roaming rates. 

Phone signal strength was pretty good all the way around Europe, and the Orange 
SIM connected with various different providers as we moved through their 
region. 

Frankly, the only advantage I can see of getting a local SIM card is if you 
want to make calls or send texts within the country you are in. Data was out of 
the question, and no one could help me find a pre paid that was any better deal 
for data. Folks, we have it good here in Australia!

My son kept his Optus prepaid SIM on a standard phone without any data 
features. He paid $3.50 for each text he sent anywhere, and similarly high 
calls costs. BUT - he is on the Optus Turbo Cap so for $30 he gets $300 worth 
of calls, including international roaming. He figured the advantages of keeping 
his own number outweighed the high call costs, in particular that the plan 
allowed him to use his bonus value on international calls. Sure, he couldn't 
use data, but it seems like a pretty good option for phone and text. 

It's very difficult for foreigners to buy a SIM in Europe, so it's not easy to 
just go buy a new SIM for each country to avoid roaming charges. It also means 
your dial in number would change, not very useful for being contacted from 
home. So often when travelling, you need to phone ahead to make arrangements 
for where you are going in a few days. This is often in another country - which 
equals roaming rates. 

WiFi was sometimes free around cities, or in accommodation. Often it was only 
accessible in the lobby, often it was slow, often it dropped out. Only 
sometimes was it reliable and a good speed. 

I had purchased Groundwire, an app for voice calls over 3G or WiFi. I also had 
Viber and Skype available on both the iPhone and the iPad. I can't really 
recommend one over the other, we mainly relied on emails for making 
accommodation bookings. Unless you can speak the language, making bookings 
online is a much better option. 

So much like all the other stories I have read, there is no easy solution to 
good data rates when travelling mainland Europe. It is best to simply turn off 
3G and Data on the iPhone - Under Settings: General: Network:  Enable 3G - Turn 
it OFF. On the same screen, Cellular Data. Turn it OFF.   So do not plan to use 
data whilst you're travelling during the day in the same way you would in 
Australia. Plan to use it in your accommodation, but don't rely on the 
promotional material to be telling the truth that they have WiFi. 

If you are going to need to use mapping to find your next accommodation, 
prepare the night before when you have WiFi; find the hotel on Maps and take a 
screen print of it - hold down the Home button and the Power key. The resulting 
image is stored in Photos.   

As I said above, we have it good here and get very used to just checking 
something on the iPhone or iPad as we want (different from a 'need').  It takes 
some adjustment to step back and live life on the tourist trail without 1Gb of 
data allowance. 

A couple of good apps I found were translator apps made by Lonely Planet. We 
stayed with a couple in country Normandy, who spoke more English than our 
French but fundamentally we could

Hi Tim

Nice summary thanks.
Out of interest though. Had you turned off things like Push for email?
And did you leave Apps running in the background. (I know they're not meant 
to use data,...but I'm still a bit wary of this.) I haven't been out of the 
country so haven't been able to test it.
(Any one want to buy me a ticket to New Zealand for a week so I can test it 
please??) :))

Any app or service that has to keep a connection open I'm sure must be the ones 
that chew through the data and cost. Just curious.

Kind regards

Yes Daniel, I had turned off Push notifications too, and Location Services. 

I had turned the iPhone off for the plane travel, and not used many apps when I 
arrived, so it was set up as minimalist as it could be.  I was wary and 
cautious about the high charges on roaming. Little did I realise how the 
different charging regime of charging by time rather than data volume was going 
to cost me dearly even with a 'local' SIM card.

Arrr good good. :)
Yeh, seems a little bizarre for it to just charge through if the phone is left 
on. Surely people don't make a call, turn the phone off so has not to use 
time and have to keep turning it off and on..lol. You'd think something would 
have to be working away to say hey, im doing something so using your service.
Maybe I was just looking for the needle in the haystack,..lol.

I'll go back to trying to decipher what I'm working on now,..lol. :)

 Hi Tim,
 
 Can give a little more detail about taking a photo of a safari website
 by holding down the button and power switch. Does that only work with
 iPad2? I can,t get it to work on my iPad1.
 
 Thanks

email on ipad 2

2011-10-24 Thread Samantha Whitely
Hello everyone, 

I was just curious as to whether there would be an easy solution to the 
following problem.

My husband, has a work iPad that he is unable to download any applications on, 
nor is he able to get to the webmail section on the internet of the provider.

There are 19,900 or so (there was 20,000 yesterday) emails that he needs to 
download and sort through - and mainly delete, but on the iPad he can only 
download 45 at a time.
Also so far he has not found a 'select all' option and so has been deleting 
them one at a time … although he is going to have another look for that this 
afternoon he tells me.

He is using the mail application built into the pad.

If anyone has any suggestions, they would be awfully appreciated at the moment!

Sam

I did, but resent it to gmug anyway just in case as well.

So there is no select all button or shortcut I gather, how you noted is how he 
is doing it, which isn't hard, but with that amount it is really boring and 
repetitive.

Ah well, time to put a movie on, pour a drink and start deleting for the 
evening I think.

Hi Sam,

For such a large number of emails he might find it easier to do the culling on 
a Mac or (dare I say it) a Windows PC. If it is a IMAP account, changes made on 
the server will be propagated to the iPad.

Hi Sam,

Pity all the emails aren’t in the Trash Mailbox, you CAN Empty all Trash 
easily. 
Go to Mailboxes, select trash, scroll to bottom of list, select Edit at top of 
page. 
Option to 'Delete All' is in Red at bottom. Click it and...all gone

There is no way to delete ALL emails. Trash ? yes. emails? no

On the iPad , perhaps he  could just 'Delete the email Account’ ... and all the 
emails are gone!
Then Setup his email Account again in Settings  Mail, Contacts , Calendars - 
Accounts.

Might work hey Carlo?

That would be nice, but the boss is rather strict over how many computers an 
account is allowed to be seen on …. namely one!

I'll see if maybe hubby can talk to the boss and either do that or get onto the 
web to do it …. selling point may be the amount of downloads he is going to 
have to do to clear it out!

Thanks for your advice though

iPad Font Display

2011-10-22 Thread Callum Prior
Hi all,

I have a Pages document I've been working on on my Mac which uses some custom 
fonts.  I was hoping to be able to work on it on my iPad via the cloud but 
Pages on the iPad won't recognize the fonts.

However, if I email the document to my self and open it with mail on the iPad 
the fonts display fine.  Is there a way to work with custom fonts with Pages on 
an iPad? Why can Mail render them properly but not Pages?

Cheers!

Hi Callum,

What Font are you using?  Fonts on iOS are predefined. Custom fonts are defined

iWork for iOS attempts to replace an unsupported font with one that is a close 
match. If a close match is not found, the Helvetica font will be used instead.

review.”

2011-10-22 Thread Callum Prior
Hi Ronni,

The font I'm using is called JSL Ancient.

The limited range of fonts on the device I understand, I don't understand why 
it renders correctly in iPad Mail but not iPad Pages.

I guess it falls under 'custom fonts are defined by the app', I just would have 
expected apps made by the same company to treat fonts the same way.

Cheers!

Re: iPad Font Display

2011-10-22 Thread Ronda Brown
Hi Callum,


The iPad iOS is capable of reading the font in iPad Mail, but Pages App on iPad 
is not capable of using the font, as it doesn’t have access to that font
Yes, “custom fonts are defined by the app” as mentioned in my previous reply.

Check out iOS Apps Support:

 Hi Ronni,
 
 The font I'm using is called JSL Ancient.
 
 The limited range of fonts on the device I understand, I don't understand why 
 it renders correctly in iPad Mail but not iPad Pages.
 
 I guess it falls under 'custom fonts are defined by the app', I just would 
 have expected apps made by the same company to treat fonts the same way.

 However, if I email the document to my self and open it with mail on the

 Hi Callum,
 
 What Font are you using?  Fonts on iOS are predefined. Custom fonts are 
 defined by the app and are application specific. 
 
 Compatible iWork for iOS devices support over 40 fonts and font families. 
 When importing a document that uses a font not available on a compatible iOS 
 device, iWork for iOS attempts to replace an unsupported font with one that 
 is a close match. If a close match is not found, the Helvetica font will be 
 used instead. After the import process, fonts that were replaced are listed 
 for you to review.”
 
 Fonts available on compatible iOS devices include:

csv file to iPad

2011-10-10 Thread Merv Bond
 From my address book in Thunderbird I have created a csv file.
Is there a way of importing the file to Contacts on an iPad?
I assumed that it might be through iTunes but the Library doesn't have a 
location for files.
Using iTunes 10.4.1 on an intel iMac running 10.5.8
iPad2 has max memory etc running on iOS 4.3
Advice appreciated.

Re: csv file to iPad

2011-10-10 Thread Daniel Kerr
Hi Merv

Import into the Address Book on the computer, then (assuming you're syncing 
this already), sync the iPad via iTunes. Data will transfer across from the 
Address Book on the computer to the iPad.
(If not already syncing the Address Book then once the iPad is plugged in, go 
to the iPad (under Devices) then to the Info Tab and tick on Address Book.).

A note with .csv files. Just be wary with some of it, as they can need a tidy 
up and some of the info doesn't always get read well. So pays to go through 
and clean up the Address book after the csv import before syncing with iPad.

Also, make sure you've got a good backup of Address Book before you start. 
(User folder - Library - Application Support - AddressBook is where all the 
data is stored.). I normally make a copy of that onto a drive or desktop before 
I start. :))

Easy :)

Kind regards
Daniel

Hi again Lloyd,

It is simple, very simple ;-)

If you have imported photos from these cameras before into iPhoto on your
Mac, the import setting on the cameras is already set correctly.

The Canon USB interface name it PTP, other cameras either PTP, PictBridge
or PTP/PictBridge.

If you haven¹t been able to use the cameras on your Mac as well, check
the USB Cable, try another USB Cable.

Cheers,
Ronni

Apple iPad Camera Connection

2011-09-29 Thread Lloyd White
Hi everyone,

I have an iPad 1 and Camera connection plug and cable. I am using two
cameras, a Canon and a Nikon.
When I connect either camera to the iPad a message comes up that the
device is not supported. I rang the Apple supplier and was told to
dismiss this message and carry on.
In the photos application I see a blank box called Saved photos, but no
photos are there. Just a black rectangle. Same with both cameras. None of
the photos have been transferred.

I have the latest software on the iPad. The Apple guy says that it should
work but has no further suggestions.

I am hoping the collective genii of wamug might have some ideas.

Thanks

Hi Lloyd,

I’ve never received the message you have.
This is how it works:

1.  Connect a USB cable between the camera and the USB adapter.

2.  Unlock the iPad if it’s currently asleep, and plug the adapter into the 
iPad’s dock connector. 
After a few seconds, the Photos app launches, and a new Camera button appears 
on the bar at the top of the screen. 
Thumbnails of the available photos and video clips appear below.

3. Now, do one of the following:

*To copy all of the items to the iPad, tap the Import All button.

*To be more selective, tap the items you wish to import; a blue checkmark 
symbol indicates the item is queued for import. 
Once you’ve made your selections, tap the Import button; the app gives you one 
last chance to import all items, or you can import just the selected ones.

4. After the transfer is complete, you’re asked if you want to delete the 
imported items from the camera or keep them. 
Tap the Keep button—it’s better to format memory cards within the camera 
instead.

The photos and videos are found in two new albums: 
'All Imported' and 'Last Import' (which shows just the most recent imported 
images).

Ronni

Re: Apple iPad Camera Connection

2011-09-29 Thread Ronda Brown
Hi Lloyd,

Also check that you have the Camera /s in the correct mode to import photos via 
USB.
The Canon I think uses PTP for photo import.

This is mentioned in one of the links below that Alan has supplied:
If your camera supports both PTP and Mass Storage Device modes, it may be 
necessary to use both modes to import all media content. 
If some files do not import as expected using one mode, try switching to the 
other mode and importing again.
 Note: Some cameras may refer to PTP as Pictbridge or PTP/Pictbridge.”

Cheers,
Ronni

This is how it works:

1.  Connect a USB cable between the camera and the USB adapter.

2.  Unlock the iPad if it¹s currently asleep, and plug the adapter into
the iPad¹s dock connector.
After a few seconds, the Photos app launches, and a new Camera button
appears on the bar at the top of the screen.
Thumbnails of the available photos and video clips appear below.

3. Now, do one of the following:

*To copy all of the items to the iPad, tap the Import All button.

*To be more selective, tap the items you wish to import; a blue checkmark
symbol indicates the item is queued for import.
Once you¹ve made your selections, tap the Import button; the app gives
you one last chance to import all items, or you can import just the
selected ones.

4. After the transfer is complete, you¹re asked if you want to delete the
imported items from the camera or keep them.
Tap the Keep buttonit¹s better to format memory cards within the camera
instead.

The photos and videos are found in two new albums:
'All Imported' and 'Last Import' (which shows just the most recent
imported images).

Cheers,
Ronni

I always reformat my cards in the camera because I know it causes

would be simple !! :-)

Thanks Ronni and Alan,

I have tried it with the card reader also. As soon as the connector is
inserted the unsupported message comes up. The photo application does
not launch as you suggest Ronni. No Camera button appears.

Perhaps my connector is faulty.

I will take it to the Apple shop in Nedlands this morning to have that
checked.

 Hi everyone,
 
 I have an iPad 1 and Camera connection plug and cable. I am using two
 cameras, a Canon and a Nikon.
 When I connect either camera to the iPad a message comes up that the
 device is not supported. I rang the Apple supplier and was told to
 dismiss this message and carry on.
 In the photos application I see a blank box called Saved photos, but no
 photos are there. Just a black rectangle. Same with both cameras. None
of
 the photos have been transferred.
 
 I have the latest software on the iPad. The Apple guy says that it
should
 work but has no further suggestions.
 
 I am hoping the collective genii of wamug might have some ideas.

Hi again Lloyd,

It is simple, very simple ;-)

This message will probably not get through to WAMUG Mailing list as MobileMe 
email is down and has been most of the morning. 
Now they say they are doing maintenance :-(

If you have imported photos from these cameras before into iPhoto on your Mac, 
the import setting on the cameras is already set correctly.

The Canon USB interface name it PTP, other cameras either PTP, PictBridge or 
PTP/PictBridge.

If you haven’t been able to use the cameras on your Mac as well, check the USB 
Cable, try another USB Cable.

Cheers,
Ronni

Hi David,

The Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit is great I have one ;-)
At $35 it's a must have if you wish to load photos from your camera onto an 
iPad.


The iPad Camera Connection Kit gives you two ways to import photos and videos 
from a digital camera: using your camera’s USB cable or directly from an SD 
card. iPad and the Camera Connection Kit support standard photo formats, 
including JPEG and RAW, along with SD and HD video formats, including H.264 and 
MPEG-4.

60% of undergrad PC purchases are Macs. iPad users score 25% higher

2011-09-19 Thread Martin Hill
Apple is on a roll in education.

Apple's (AAPL) share of computer purchases within the last three months spiked 
to 60%, up from 38% last year
Students with iPads score 25% better 

http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2011/09/19/survey-60-of-undergrad-pc-purchases-are-macs/?section=magazines_fortuneutm_source=feedburnerutm_medium=feedutm_campaign=Feed%3A+rss%2Fmagazines_fortune+%28Fortune+Magazine%29
 


In one study, students who annotated text on their iPads scored 25% higher on 
questions regarding information transfer than their paper-based peers. In a 
separate project covering iPad usage patterns, two researchers studying ACU's 
first all-digital class discovered that the iPad promotes learning moments 
and helps students make more efficient use of their time. Grad students working 
in an online program reported a 95% satisfaction rate for online iPad-based 
coursework.

Re: iPad deleted mail messages keep re-loading

Hi Laura,

Ok, its a POP Mail Account, check these settings:

1. Go to your Settings app and choose the Mail, Contacts and Calendars”
2. Select the account you're having trouble with.
3. Scroll down to the Advanced button and select it. 
4. Select when to remove “Deleted Messages, such as one week or one day later
5. Then select the Delete from server option and choose when you want the 
mail deleted from the server. 

As long as neither option is set to Never, you should not have issues. 

Some POP accounts may have additional options, such as enabling a Trash 
folder. 
If this option appears in your Advanced screen, make sure the Trash or 
Delete folder is enabled.

In regards to you question below
 
 I also regularly get messages that say no sender in which there is no 
 content. These cannot be deleted. I have to re start iPad to clear them.

These are SPAM emails. You can’t do much about receiving them on your iPad, and 
 to get rid of them once they are downloaded,
you need to Reset Your iPad:
Hold down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the 
Apple logo, let go of the buttons.

Re: iPad deleted mail messages keep re-loading

Hi

I get this reasonably regularly using POP mail accounts and suspect it has to 
do with memory availability. I usually have 75 messages showing (in Mail 
Settings) but with many more messages available for downloading.

Stopping the Mail App (and others, I have 16 Apps running now) helps.

Thank you

Re: Further details about iPad Apps

2011-09-11 Thread cm

Hi Ian,

Apple puts out a document called the Human Interface Guidelines, or HIG for 
short. It has rules that all interface developers must follow. When it comes to 
toolbar icons there is a very short list of standard icons that are provided in 
the development kit and the rest are created by individual developers. The HIG 
does place restrictions on the size of the icons, and the format and contrast 
of the images, but each developer that produces an app is pretty much free to 
choose icons. Apple polices all apps and will reject an app that is misleading 
so developers tend to try to make the images suggestive of the task that the 
button will perform.

The main guide in this area is the powerful set of apps produced by Apple 
itself -- Number, Pages, Keynote, iMove, iPod, etc. When developers want an 
idea for an icon they quite often check to see how Apple solved a similar 
problem. So a subset of icons have become de facto standards for particular 
tasks.

I will put together a list of common icons over the next few days and post back 
to the group when it is done. I would do it now but I have some pressing 
preparation to do for classes on Monday and Tuesday.

Cheers,
Carlo

iPad apps used in teaching physics and maths

2011-09-06 Thread cm
In response to some requests, here is a list of iPad apps that were demoed at 
tonight's WAMUG meeting. The apps are used in the teaching of Physics tutorials 
and labs, and a Maths tutorial.

The iPad replaces 10 - 20 kg of manuals that I would usually carry in a 
back-pack while cycling to classes, and also carries a whole library of 
reference works that I normally would not be able to take along. Apart from 
having less weight to carry, if the trend catches on for student text books, 
many fewer trees will be felled to make paper.


iBooks - free download.
Apples own classy, fully featured electronic book reader. Includes many visual 
effects that are starting to appear in imitations.
The collections feature can be used on the iPad itself to group books.
All the classic physics texts are loaded for reference along with the current 
first year, UWA texts. A library full of information!
I have one young student who was actually issued an eBook Maths text by her 
school. It has a nice feature that tapping on a maths problem jumps to the 
solution and vice versa.

GoodReader - $5.49
Used to mark up PDF's with type annotations, hand written text, and 
highlighting.
Used to access lab manuals, assignments and assignment solutions. Documents 
that benefit from annotation and notes.
It replaces what usually becomes a 5 centimetre thick manilla folder of papers. 
And many poorly printed lab manuals.

Numbers - $10.49
Apple's own user friendly spreadsheet.
Used to record student attendance lists, and grades.
iCloud, when it appears (next month according to the Apple press), will 
automatically sync Numbers spreadsheets between all your Macs and iOS devices.

powerOne SL- free for non-professinal version
This has become my calculator of choice. For the older geek crowd it supports 
Hewlett-Packard reverse polish notation!

Video and iTunes U - included in iOS
iTunes U is just a wonderful resource. For instance there is a Stanford U 
series on Thermodynamics, an Oxford U series on Quantum Mechanics, or for 
software developers there are all the sessions from Apple's latest World Wide 
Developers' Conference.
Many amazing lectures on most every topic are available from top flight 
universities and teaching institutions.

Cheers,
Carlo

Missing iPad movie project sent to iTunes

2011-08-30 Thread Alan Smith

Where is my movie?

I created an iMovie project on my iPad2 (WiFi version).   Sharing options in 
iMovie include sending a project to iTunes for archiving, or for further 
editing and sharing on other IOS devices.   iPad message says file has been 
sent (The Toast.iMovieMobile).   I can't find it on my iMac in iTunes, iMovie, 
Spotlight, or by searching Finder.   Seemed exceptionally fast in transmitting 
the data (a second or so?) so perhaps it didn't really transfer at all.  
Another option of sharing the movie directly from iPad to YouTube worked OK 
(and took a long time).

I have no SHARED header or folder items on display in the iTunes or Finder 
sidebars, which is where I thought the missing file might be.

Re: Missing iPad movie project sent to iTunes

2011-08-30 Thread Ronda Brown

Hi Alan,

I'm not sure if this will help you.
iMovie for iPad- How not to lose all your iPad iMovie clips.

When you export a movie you have the option to send it to iTunes. 
This actually creates an Archive copy of the movie. 
This .imoviemobile file contains the project and copies of all the audio 
and video clips used in it. 

To archive your finished project:
Choose the movie on iMovie's My Projects screen.
Tap the Share icon (with the arrow springing out of it)
Choose iTunes Once the project is archived it's a good idea to keep a copy on 
your desktop. 
Sync with iTunes  Choose your iPad in the Library list  click the Apps tab  
Scroll down to File Sharing  click on iMovie  drag your project from the list 
to a safe place. 
There will also be a copy remaining on your iPad.

To unarchive the project:
Press the Download button to verified that your movie is in the iTunes File 
Sharing folder.
Tap the screen anywhere to cancel the download.
Trash the movie from the iMovie My Projects screen.
When asked if you want to delete the copy, choose Don't Delete.
Press the Download button again.
Choose your movie from the list.

The project will reappear on your My Projects screen. 
You can now delete the clips of the project from your camera roll, since this 
version in iMovie now contains them all. 
If you have the space, you can keep the iTunes copy of the .imoviemobile file 
on your iPad as a backup.

Re: Missing iPad movie project sent to iTunes

2011-08-30 Thread Alan Smith

Thanks Ronni

The Wolfe Withane blog instructions expand slightly on the Apple help file and 
raises a new interpretation.

Perhaps send to iTunes is not literally correct.IMovie has the option to 
send the movie to YouTube, Vimeo, facebook, etc; and to send the project to 
iTunes.   What I now think may happen is that iMovie (in iPad) just formats the 
project (as an archive file) and places it in an internal folder (Apps/File 
Sharing) available for the next syncing session with iTunes.  Then it becomes a 
matter of manually copying it to an iMac archive repository.   

If this interpretation is correct, it will not the first time I find that Apple 
instructions can be confusing, if not misleading!   Just as well I'm not 
travelling and expecting to find all my holiday movies waiting for me at home 
for final editing!

Cheers, 
Alan

Re: iPad and iPhoto syncing

2011-08-27 Thread Ronda Brown
Hi Tim,

Try deleting the iPod Photo Cache, which is created in the iPhoto database when 
transferring photos to an iPod, iPhone, and iPad. 

With iPhoto 09, quit iPhoto if launched and using the Finder go to Pictures  
iPhoto Library. 

Control-click on the iPhoto Library and at the menu window that appears, select 
Show Package Contents. 

Locate the iPod Photo Cache folder and delete this folder.

Try syncing photos again. All selected photos will need to be re-optimized 
again, which will automatically create a new iPod Photo Cache folder in your 
iPhoto library,

Thanks Ronni,

I am using iPhoto 8, but nevertheless, this solution has worked. 

Late last night when I was checking the Apple Discussion, I read that the iPad 
cache was in iPhoto Application package - which it wasn't. 

What I've read more clearly this morning, or maybe it was incorrect in the 
Apple Support Forums, from your message was to open the iPhoto Library package, 
and there it was. So,  thanks for your help, the iPad is happily syncing away 
now.

Fantastic clairvoyance!Just had a similar problem this morning after iTunes 
10.4.1 update and syncing of iPad2 with new photo events.

Found a rather cryptic Apple Communities thread that advised (without step by 
instructions) to delete the iPod cache folder AND to Right click on itunes 
program and set to run always as an administrator.   Other people found this 
last item to be essential.   I didn't do it as (a) it worked without it and (b) 
I couldn't find where to do it anyway.

Re: excel on the ipad?

2011-08-17 Thread Chris Burton
Hi Ronnie, Daniel and others

Thankyou very much for your suggestions regarding using excel capability on an 
ipad. I will check through all links and get back to you when I am able (out of 
action for a week).

Kind regards

Chris

 Hi Chris,
 
 Read the whole Matthew Miller review on all the iPad Office Apps.
 Especially his 'Favourite and Why’:
 
  /Quote:
 Quickoffice is my overall favorite application thanks to the iPad optimized 
 user experience, Word and Excel import and export capability, easy file 
 management, and reasonable $10 price.

 Hi Chris,
 
 The three Apple iWork Apps are great on an iPad, BUT if you have not been 
 using iWork on your Mac, and are using Excel, ‘Documents To Go’ as John has 
 recommended I would think is the better way for you to go.
 
 This review was written back in June 2010, I would imagine 'Documents To Go’ 
 would have made more improvements by now.

 Hi Chris
 
 I am using 'docs to go' with both iDisk and dropbox.
 
 It was easy to set up with the online services, and it does most things you 
 might want to do in excel. One thing I have encountered is that it does not 
 do drop down lists from a cell, but other than that no problems.

 Hi Laura,
 
 I wonder if you have inadvertently set you iPod app on your iPad to play at  
 two-times normal play speed. To check you can do the following
 
 1) while a podcast is playing tap the cover so that you see a scrubber bar 
 along the top of the screen as well as volume and pause play controls
 2) just to the right of the scrubber bar is a small white square that 
 contains text that will say on of the following
  1X, 2X, or 1/2X
 
 if this square contains the text 2X, tap it until you see 1X
 
 Cheers,
 Carlo

 Good morning all
 
 I need help with something odd that is happening with my iPad, not so much 
 the iPad itself but the podcasts I have stored on it. 
 
 I have a number of podcasts that I use for foreign language learning. They 
 are the only podcasts I have on my iPad. Until now these have worked 
 extremely well with, in some cases, the addition of PDF guides to accompany 
 the lessons and these sit happily on the ebookshelf for me to access as I 
 wish. 
 
 I added some more episodes from iTunes and now all the episodes on the iPad 
 are playing at a faster rate than normal, so much so that I can no longer 
 keep up with the dialogue. They play normally in iTunes.
 
 Should I perhaps remove all the podcasts on iPad and then start again? If so 
 how do I do that? 
 
 Any help much appreciated.
 
 Regards
 Laura

excel on the ipad?

2011-08-14 Thread Chris Burton

Hi everyone

I am enquiring to find out a useful way of importing/exporting excel docs to an 
ipad. 
I have done some online searching and see that Microsoft hasnt ported Office to 
the ipad but there seem to be a few alternatives like 'Documents to Go', 'Quick 
Office' and the Apple apps, iWorks and Numbers. I havnt used any of these and 
ask if someone can please advise me?

I would like to be able to use an 'Excel like' app, in a similar way to FMP Go 
on the iPad, as a data entry program that can update files to/from a laptop.

Thanks for any help

Chris

John,


Is Spreadsheet an iPad or iPhone App? I can't find it in the iPad section
of Apple Store iPad section, but there is one called Spreadsheet in the
iPhone section.
