Advise for iPad car installation please
I just purchased a Nissan Cube. I declined the audio system so there is a blank plate where the stereo would normally fit. I want to install and use my G3 iPad in the car to listen to music, etc. I don’t want the standard audio systems with radio, cd player, etc. I just want to use the iPad.
I plan to use the http://www.proclipusa.com for mounting the iPad in the car.
My question is.... the car has speakers and I’ve got the iPad but how do I connect them? Do I need an intermediary amp? Or will a direct connection work? I’m not looking to rock the neighborhood, just want listen to my classical musical collection while in the car.
Thanks in advance for your advise.

thanks - but the main question remains: why would Apple choose to YET AGAIN mess with the multi-pin assignments from device to device? Does it have anything to do with selling MORE product? That's fine for plugging into your computer, but Pioneer, Kenwood and Alpine make their own specific cables modeled on the spec they pay Apple a license for.
Unlike the Apple fanbois, most of us don't want to buy a new $1500 car stereo every two years.
That has nothing to do with the OP.

What flash player is advised for iPad?
I need a good substitution for a flash player for my iPad. College classes are posting videos that require a flash player......what would be best?
No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash. Adobe is not providing Flash for Apple iOS devices, and they no longer provide Flash for any other cellular phones. Flash is officially gone.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
A sample of Apps that can display some Flash content:
1. Puffin
2. SkyFire
3. Photon Flash
4. Browse2Go
5. Swifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."
Download the Facebook app from the iTunes Store. Sign in with your Facebook ID and Password and you won't require flash to play videos. -
Is ios 5 advisable for iPad 1?
I enjoy reading The New Yorker on my iPad 1 so is it advisable to upgrade to ios5 to get automatically downloads as advertised?
Peruse the discussion site and read some of the current discussions. There are plenty of them talking about iOS 5 update issues. After you read some of them, make the decision then based on what you think would be best for you.
Up until very recently, I have stated that even with the "minor" issues that I have been experiencing, I would update the iOS all over again. However - After a few very recent episodes that I have had, I don't know if I would make that statement today.
EDIT - I want to explain - I never had issues with my iPad being recognized in iTunes - even with WiFi syncing - set up was a breeze and WiFi syncing was great. This past weekend with my iPad running, sitting by my side - next to my MacBook with iTunes running - I started getting 0Xe ... error messages that relate to USB connections. My iPad was NOT connected to the Mac with the cable. After dealing with that issue by restarting all devices - my iPad appeared in iTunes - and I tried to sync and got this message - Sync Session Failed to Start. I restarted the iPad and the Mac again - synced with the cable - successfully - and I still have problems that come and go with the iPad being recognized since then.
Never - not once ever - did I have an issue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes - before the iOS 5 update. -

I am trying to activate my program into my new computer (the old one was run over by a car) and it says I have exceeded my installations. It's Adobe Audition 3 (you can see I've been using it a long time) and I rely on it for work everyday. Please advise.
The activation server for Audition 3 was shut down by Adobe several years ago.
You now need to download the non-activation version provided by Adobe here
Error: Activation Server Unavailable | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3
Install then enter the new serial number provided by Adobe at that link. Your existing serial number will no longer work. -
my laptop will not open iTunes, as it just says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English version'. I have not synconised my iPhone 5S or iPad 2 with iTunes for well over a year. I noticed the music which had previously been put into iTunes has dissappeared from my phone and iPad. I also want to remove some movies from my iPad and iPhone and there is no way I can do this without being able to manually sync with the Laptop which is running windows 7. Has anyone else come across this and please can you help? I am no expert in fact I know very little about the Laptop, it is my Husbands baby but he doesn't understand anything to do with Apple including iTunes. I will need any advise explained step by step please.
Hi Shelady,
Try downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes from the first link below. If that doesn't do it, the suggestions in the second article should resolve the installation issue.

I try to create an html for IPad. The html page contains an element overlapping a video, now it works as for view but the focus is still with video. This denies the event of overlapping element from occuring. Can please anyone help to solve this issue?
Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you. -
How to file the complaint for GEEK SQUAD installation for car remote and alarm security ?
My name is Benny. I want to install the remote start and alarm in My 2015 Toyota Highlander. before I make an appointment. I go to Bestbuy store and make sure it's compatible with the Viper Responder LC3 5706V 2-Way Remote Start and Security System. Bestbuy print out the document everything say is compatible with my vehicle. and then I make an Appointment on July 31, 2015, 01:00 PM 4 Hrs162 SANTILLI HWY EVERETT MA Confirmation Number: VRJF2718. it is the lady help me to install it. she say it take 4 to 5 hours to finish. I said I wait here at Bestbuy out there until finish installation. After more than 5 hours. I come in the Bestbuy mobile installation there. and the lady tell me my car is broke fuse link. The vehicle will not start. and also she said she did not touch anything. I ask why the fuse is broke if you did not touch anything. she said the fuse broke all the time. It is normal. My car less than 1400 miles. just like new. My all family use Toyota. 6 year never broke the engine fuse. She try to tell me the fuse link broke is not because the installation process. She try to tell is not her responsibility. She said already call Woburn Toyota repair on Monday. I m so worry about my car. I take the subway to Wellington station and walk to Bestbuy on the next day. and then she tell me the car has to tow to Woburn Toyota to repair. on August 4. I went to Bestbuy with my friends. We talk to the Geek Squad manager I think his name is Jason. He tell me the car can fix and pick up today about 1PM, I called Woburn Toyota and they tell me pick up my car. after pick up my car. I have to go back to Bestbuy finish the remaining installation because the viper already installed in my car. About 2:30PM. Tom said it take about 20 to 30 minutes to program the key. after Program the key. It has problem to start the engine. Sometime the engine start only a few seconds it shut it down. He don't know how to program the key, the key has the code has to match the car. Tom keep try and try to start the engine until the car battery is dead. and then use the jump starter to charge the battery. and keep try and try. I don't remember how many time he try to start the engine. it make me very scare. I ask Tom many time about the compatible. He said yes. about 6PM. I talk to the manager, I said do you think will tow my car again. He tell me to talk to Tom. I told Tom I have to use my car tomorrow for work. I paid to much for the cab. And then he take out the Vipers. Wednesday 4:40am in the morning. I drive for my job. I found out the automatic light is not on. it has other issue. The Auto switch is on, but the automatic light is not on. me and my friends went to Bestbuy again and talk to manager. First He said is not my responsibility. You already pick up the car. I m telling you. no one will know the automatic sensor will broke if not drive at night or dark place. I have my KDLINKS X1 FULL HD WIDE ANGLE CAR DASHBOARD CAMCORER WITH GPS install in my car. The installation day is July 31. All drive load recorded. July 31. I drive my friends to China town and get in the Tunnel and then go back to Bestbuy get in the tunnel again. It show the light automatic on. No any problem when I drop on Bestbuy. I have alot Evidence prove. No one touch my new car. Only Geek Squad. I lost money because the Viper Responder LC3 5706V already used. It can't return it. Also I lost time. wait long time in Bestbuy, 4 hours job it take 5 days. I have no car to use. I have to paid the cab for my job. I have to drive my car to Woburn Toyota to see what is broke on 08/7/2015. After 5 hours long wait. The Toyota said Tom forgot to connect the wire. They said the first time broke the big fuse link and tow to Toyota repair. It is the big problem. It broke because they start the engine more than hundred time. I know because I took the chair and wait inside the second time with Tom. He try to start my engine between 5 second. I know what is troubleshooting. but if you try to start the engine 3 time and not work. You will know is sometime wrong. You have to find out the problem and maybe get help. Not just keep try to start the engine on the remote. I tell Tom even you try thousand time. it could be the same. I know I complaint the first time when they broke my car big fuse. but please don't treat my car like that. I want to ask you. if you take your car there for installation. You wait there more than 5 hours and your new car is broke by them. and you have no car to use for your job. Are you happy about that. Second time he said only take 30 minutes to program the key. It take me wait there 5 hours. He forgot connect the wire. If you don't believe, you can call Woburn Toyota. Everyone know Bestbuy broke my 2015 Toyota Highlander. Bestbuy should reimburse my lost. I lost time and money. The Viper I can't return to other retail store because it used by your company. It fail to install and broke my car. I try to call Geek squad 18004335778 two times and talk to different people. they just hand up my phone after I tell my stories. They never give me the solution. and I know I post the message here may not helpful. I will keep try other way to tell my stories to other if Bestbuy not give me the solution. My phone numbers is {removed per forum guidelines}.
Thanks your reply. I mean no one know my feeling. except if the new car is your. If Geek Squad can't install it. Just let me know and go. right? I ask many time? Are you ok to finish? He said yes. First time fail after 5 hours long wait and tow my car to Toyota repair. Second time said only take 20 to 30 minutes to program the key. but fail again after about 4 hours 30 minutes long wait and head light is not automatic turn on at night. I have to take a day off drive to Toyota repair. My time is money. wait there more than 10 hours and done nothing. 5 days no car and take the subway Bus and long walk. How do I feel? I m the customer. if without the customer. How you get pay? Geek Squad use my remote start and alarm and I can't return it. I loss time and money. My new car has a repair record. That is what Bestbuy want to do for the customer. Geek Squad work for Bestbuy. right? You are not just loss one customer. You will loss more and more than the remote start alarm cost. Bestbuy will not know? How come just 200$ remote start alarm and the 50$ module. Bestbuy don't want to reimburse. I m not tell you to pay me 5 days for rental car. why don't just want a happy ending? Bestbuy is big company. I m very small. 250$ it cost Bestbuy nothing. You can't let the customer loss money because you. right?

What I have to do to correct the following problems with Pages app. For iPad:
Hesitates to display results of typing, some times for 5-6 characters;
Very slow in opening files;
Before opening of a specific file displays message: DOCUMENT DETAILS. SOME CHANGES WERE MADE TO YOUR DOCUMENT. SOME IMAGES ARE MISSING BECAUSE THEY WERE DELETED FROM YOUR DOCUMENT. We'll, nothing is missing. But it takes forever to open this file. The previous issue of Pages worked very good. But they would not let me to go back to it. Please, help!Tmobile did the exact same thing to me. So that is customer service at work in general. Nice try though lol.
To the OP
I see you said You paid for shipping, did you Insure it? Claim insurance on it. If you did not, It may not be Verizon or your fault in the sense of the phone not making it to the warehouse. There are people out in the postal world that will steal phones that are not insured. It could have been a Verizon employee, i suppose.
But, if this was to be a bought in court, if you shipped it with out insurance, sadly your at fault.
Do you still have the Serial number of your old phone? If so, you should be able to track where your phone is (if it is reported as a defect/damaged) If so, you may be able to use that as proof. If it does not show up as a defect or what ever they determine use as a loss, then you know it did not make it to the warehouse to be checked in. I would suspect Apple or Verizon could tell you what the Serial number came up as. -
