Apple Health app for iPad (and Personal Health Record)

Is the Apple Health App only for exercising and doing physical activities ... or ... will it be for keeping one's "Personal Health Record" on your iOS device?
I would hope that Apple would have their Health app for keeping records like doctors' visits, health records, lab results, hospital stays, doctor lists, reminders for appointments, keeping weight data over the long term, BMI, blood pressure and so on. All this kind of stuff is very well suited to be done on the iPad and I was looking for the Apple Health app (for the iPad) to see if Apple incorporated this "full functionality" for "health" for people to use. I just can't find the Health app to use on the iPad.
I've already downloaded several apps separate from Apple which are supposed to keep records and doctors visits and lab results and blood pressure ... etc, and etc ... but I haven't found them to be completely adequate. No one is able to provide a fully functional and complete health record and all its functionality (including x-rays and lab results and analysis) for iOS devices.
I suppose that the field is "too new" for the iOS devices to be fully functional yet ... but I would hope that Apple would "get there" first, with its "Health app".

Which is no reason you can't still store your Health data on it. The Health data can be transferred from one phone to the next if you use an encrypted back up.
Apple appears to have been looking at the iPhone as a collector of data and Health as the front end to that as well as a repository of information collected from other sources. As an iPad currently can't collect the data the way an iPhone does, the function of the Health app would be slightly different than on an iPhone. I'm not suggesting there is anything "wrong" with how you would like to use Health, only that it appears to be a bit different than how Apple thinks Health should be used. Submit feedback to Apple letting them know what you'd like to see.
Personally, I really find the Health app only useful as a transfer conduit at this time. I find myself rarely looking at the dashboard. Perhaps my opinion will change with the release of the Apple Watch.

Are you in the US? Not all apps are available in all countries. There is no way to download anything from a website, like Kindle. If it's not in your App Store, you won't be able to have it.

Buy app for iPad and iPhone?

If I've bought an app for iPad which also is available for iPhone, can I then download it for free on my iPhone?

If it is exactly the same app then you can re-download it for free - all your previously purchased apps (that are still available in the store) should show in the Purchased tab at the bottom of the App Store app on the iPad, or in the Purchased link on the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes . If the app doesn't appear in Purchased then you haven't previous purchased it with that account. The '+' indicates that the app is a 'universal' app i.e. it has processing within to detect what device it is on and will tailor it's screen display accordingly (so it will make use of the larger iPad screen and not just use an iPhone sized portion of the screen).

I purchased apps for Ipad and can't find them

I had purchased an ipad and bought a bunch of apps for it, and was hoping some would transfer over to our new Mac if possible - but there is no trace of me purchasing them except on my bank statement. Where did they go? They are not on my "purchases" list.

I have never used the Mac App store but I am pretty sure that iPad apps can only be purchases in iTunes or on the iPad itself. There are some iPad instructional apps in the Mac App Store. Is that what you mean?
If you purchase something from the Mac App Store - without knowing for sure because I've never used it - I would guess that it downloads to the downloads folder on your Mac?
iPad apps would transfer from the iPad into your itunes library on the Mac when you sync, but frankly I am pretty confused by what you actually did and what you want to know.

FRUSTRATED: FiOS Mobile app for iPad and live TV on my computer do not recognize me as a subscriber

We recently upgraded our data only service to FiOS TV and Quantum internet. TV service in the house works great. However, attempts to watch live TV (on channels that I subscribe to/pay for) using FiOS mobile for iPAD and on my home computer continue to result in some error message saying that my subscription cannot be verified. The same happens when trying to view WatchESPN or Disney via our Apple TV.
I've attempted to resolve this via two or three chat sessions and at least two phone calls to Verizon and it hasn't been fixed or resolved. Somewhere in my account a "pending order" exists, although I don't have one pending. No one knows how to clear this out but thinks that is my problem. This is very frustrating.
Any suggestions or thoughts? I have done the following:
-uninstalled and reinstalled FiOS mobile
-been sure to log in under the primary user when online or or the iPad
Thanks!

App for making And splitting audio recording (iphone 4)

Is there a good app for making AND splitting an audio recording?
I just want an app that I can use at work to record meetings and interviews.
And when I am done listening to half of a track, I want to be able to split it and delete the first half.
A search of the web was not useful.
Any recommendations?
Thanks.

Hi,
It is possible to limit the app to specific device features. For example if you require camera access or better graphics support, you can use UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities and add it to your -app.xml file.
Here's info on what values you can set for this key: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/General/Reference/InfoPlistKeyRefere nce/Articles/iPhoneOSKeys.html
Within the -app.xml file there is a tag called <iPhone> and inside there is another called <InfoAdditions> There you see where it sets the value for UIDeviceFamily. Below the UIDeviceFamily tag you can add the UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities tag.
For example if you require front camera support you would add:
<key>UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities</key>
<dict>
<key>front-facing-camera</key>
<true/>
</dict>
Note that when you edit the -app.xml file, it may be overwritten if you use something like Flash CS5 extension where it updates the file when you change values in the iOS properties panel.
Good luck,
iBrent

Could this be the killer photography app for iPad (and Apple TV, etc)?

The iPad and Apple TV could become the next killer app for professional photographers - all Apple needs to do is copy the iPod programming into the Photo app as follows:
1. Enable rating photos being viewed (1=top, 5=bottom)
2. Enable viewing photos by rating (1s only, 1s and 2s, unrated, any combo)
3. Enable slideshow to randomly pick from photos by rating
4. Enable virtual albums just like the iPod playlist function, so photos could be organized into albums without being recopied.
5. Enable slideshow to use multiple folders, albums and playlists (new feature)
Then the wedding photographer could invite the client to see their virtual album, rate the pictures being viewed for selection in the wedding album.... you "get the picture?"
Come on Apple, this one's easy!

...but it doesn't post the suggestion for others to comment, which is what I was seeking here....
You didn't ask for comments in your original post. The tone of your post implied that you wanted to let Apple know your feeling, not a request for comment or survey, etc.

Xfinity X1 App for iPad, and iPhone show Out of Home

Keep getting Out of Home message from apps even though I am connected to WiFi and all other apps and services work. Getitng bounced around Xfinity support now holding for the 7th person at Xfinity now...... Have been sent to Internet, Wifi Gateway support, Xfinity TV, Internet support, and now to application department. Is there anyone in Comcast/Xfinity that knows what their applications do?

Well if it is known problem, then perhaps someone in the "brain trust" should notify their front line support personnel of the issue rather than treating them as cannon fodder for unhappy customers. What gets me most upset with the level of support from Xfinity/Comcast is just this type of issue. If the front line support personnel were given this information then I would not have had to speak with 8 (yes that is eight) different people who could not provide any answers, sent reboot commands to the cable modem, did not even know the X1 application existed, wanted to know which TV I was having the problem on, asked me for my address, and generally wasted more than an hour of my time! So, at this point, they are allegedly having a "Level 2" support person call me this afternoon. Should I anticipate that no call will ever come? If there is anyone from Xfinity/Comcast that monitors this board, I would greatly appreciate your insight...This was posted in the X1 Forum area @ 11:50am this morning: The teams have identified the issue and services should be restored throughtout the day. It may take several hours for the ip addresses of the impacted users to be refreshed.

Hi..
Apps that run on your Mac (OS X) cannot run on an (iOS) device such as iPads and iPhones.

Best finance app for iPad and macbook

Any suggestions?

No. Apps for Mac do not run on iPad. The same is true of iPad apps. They cannot run on Mac. Different Operating systems.
Unless the developer of the App offers a code to get an iPad app in the purchase of the Mac version or something like that, you would indeed have to purchase the iPad version separately.

Does MUSE support the creation of native apps for iPad and Android?

I am a big InDesign user with the Single Edition app builder. That service is being discontinued as of May 1 and I am hunting for alternative ways to build native apps that are design-heavy with other methods. I need to know whether Muse can offer anything like this with the help of PhoneGap.
1) Can you build native apps with Muse?
2) Does that apply to Andoid and Apple?
3) Does Muse work with PhoneGap or is there a more direct way to launch?
4) Can you point me to any tutorials specifically explaining how to do the above with Muse?
Many thanks,
Fiona

The Charter app for iPad doesn't work

The charter cable app for iPad and iPhone are awful. I contacted charter many times and they said it is an Apple problem.
I can't record any DVRs. The app list me as central time so my TV listings are off by an hour. I reloaded the app several times to no avail.
I've read the reviews for the charter app in the iTunes store and 90% of people give the app the lowest rating. Apple needs to address this because charter says it's not them. My kids have a charter app through AT&T and have no problem with it. Any help?

Apple doesn't vet or test apps. those apps meet certain requirements and they're in the app store. Look through there, you'll see plenty of 0 or 1 star apps.
There are millions of apps and Apple doesn't vet them.
the facebook app hasn't worked right in years, Apple doesn't care, it's up to Facebook to make their app work. Same applies to Charter
they will not make a developer make their app work well, they let 'survival of the fittest' rule...good apps get good ratings, bad apps get poor ratings, well rated apps rise to the top, poorly rated apps fall to the bottom.
