Apple tv with ipad 2 wifi 3g

What does apple tv do for an ipad2?

Fair question.  Apple tv is a great standalone device, and to me, it is a great accessory to the pad. 
As a standalone, you get access to all the stuff contained in the atv ad pages.  I am assuming you already know about that.
As an adjunct to the pad, I have a great time playing movies from my kids and grand kids on the big screen. 
Anything you want to stream from the pad, on a bigger screen.
And now, it does mirroring.  Good for letting others see what you see.

    my mac is running slow, the spinning beach ball constantly appears. it seems that when i am in the apple store with fast wifi its a bit better. genius at the apple store checked the hard drive, it's all fine. what can it be? can it be a software issue with the wifi?
    also i noted that it has only been doing this since quite recently, before it was fine
    please help!

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    Step 1
    This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|timed? ?o' | tail | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    Step 2
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
    Step 3
    When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
    Step 4
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • I am trying to use apple configurator with ipads. I have been successful with all our ipads but 1. It will not allow me to add apps. The error I get is that it is refreshed but with errors e

    I am trying to use apple configurator with ipads. I have been successful with preparing and supervising all ipads but one. When preparing it in configurator, I receive an error that it is refreshed but with an error. Under supervise, I am not able to add apps. I have erased all content to start over but this does not work either

    Are you trying to restore a backup, or just sync some apps? Do you have profiles installed on the device?
    Have you plugged the ipad into iTunes, and did a fresh install? I'm assuming the device went through the prepare setup properly. You many have to unsupervise it first, then plug it into iTunes to wipe it completely.
    I'd then do each step seperately. Prepare it, then install 1 app, if that works, try another app, then maybe a profile.

  • Are there any known issues with iPad wifi connections to Comcast routers

    I consistently get the "unable to join network " error when trying to connect to my Comcast all in one router.  My other laptops and smartphones connect without issue.  I'm using 32GB iPad2 with wi-fi + 3G.  Coincidentally I switched to comast at the same time I did the 5.1.1 update.  Prior to the switch i had a fios router and 5.0 OS version. I've tried resetting the network info on the iPad and I've reset the router as well.  I can see the network just cant connect to it. 

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Geotagging (GPS) services with iPad WiFi?

    So my question is: if I enable the Personal Hotspot (tethering) on my iPhone and I connect an iPad WiFi to the iPhone, I can start surfing with the iPad, and this is nice. But which are the disadvantages compared to an iPad 3G?
    - during surfing with the iPad, I also use the iPhone's battery
    - I also use the amount of downloadable MB/GB available for my iPhone
    Other disadvantages? Can I ask the iPad to show my position in Maps?

    If you are moving, it will be virtually impossible to use a GPS service and maintain access to wifi on iPad alone.  If you have a wifi only iPad, there are ways to add a consistent wifi hotspot to your iPad.  One way is tether an iPhone to your iPad (you need a tethering plan from your carrier, if offered and at additional cost), or you could purchase a Mifi (a portable service which you can take with you anywhere like an iPhone to power your iPad's data connection.  Mifi's are sold by most major carriers and come with monthly data plans.
    WiFi is not required for navigation.

  • Apple Configurator with iPad Air

    I am using Apple configurator 1.5 to deploy iPad 2 with 4G and without and iPad Airs with 4G.
    I created backups of each model and I’m only having an issue with the iPad Airs. I get an  error “ unable to activate ”.  Apple configurator will update the devices to the newest OS and reset the iPads but it won’t apply any settings from the backup.
    Any help would be great.

  • There is definately something wrong with iPads' wifi...hear us please Apple

    Altough I am 30cm away from my wireless modem, iPad keeps dropping of from the connection. And when I'm away from the modem, say around 2 rooms away, iPads' signal strength dramatically drops....
    Apple please find a solution to this wifi problem, which seems to effect everbody, I do not have to try this and that, fix myself...I paid for the device that is supposed to operate as promised....why bother with fixes found around the net while you can supply us with the proper one..

    What kind of an answer is that...
    For a user with a fault that cannot be resolved, it is the most reasonable answer possible. Not only because it can help the user resolve the problem to her or his satisfaction, but also because it helps Apple discover the nature and extent of common problems, such as the wifi issues being discussed here.
    If enough people have an issue I am sure Apple will resolve it.
    As long as Apple even know about the problems that is. Engineering teams may monitor these discussions, or have their attention drawn to specific topics, but even so, it is nothing like as helpful as having faulty devices to examine and test.
    If Apple does not whatch these forums, why host them ...?
    Despite your entirely rational thoughts on the subject, these are (almost) entirely user-to-user discussions, provided by Apple to help resolve issues users have with Apple hardware and software. Hosting these, and letting users loose to help each other is infinitely less expensive than providing an equivalent number of support staff on the other end of phone lines or in stores worldwide.
    And as users, when faced by what seems to be a significant level of fault reports on one single issue, it does in fact make the greatest sense to recommend some users return their apparently faulty devices.

  • Do you recommend sharing an apple ID with my wife or using my own?

    Currently my wife and I own an Ipad and have one Apple ID which we use for itunes to buy apps and songs and what not and sync to our desktop PC... however I just upgraded through AT&T to our first iphones for each of us... she is getting the free 3gs and I am getting a 4s... woo hoo!
    My question is, should I set up our Iphones all with the same apple ID or should I create a separate @me IDs for each device (her iphone, my iphone and the ipad)?  There are some apps that we would like to be able to share with the Ipad so we don't have to purchase them again and it would be nice to be able to share items through Icloud through all of the devices... but I am sure my wife and I will want to have some different apps on our phones and have different amounts songs, different contacts, pictures and other data... Is it possible to have all of the differentiation within one apple ID and syncing to the same computer on the same Itunes account?  Do you have step by step directions on how to do this or can you point me in the direction of some?  I have been searching and searching online and can not find a good answer... What do you recommend? 
    Please let me know if you need more information on our situation to help you give the best answer... thanks for your help!

    Gottcha... so we will still use the same apple id for setting up nd acivating the phones and downloading apps and such through itunes, but I should create a different @me ID for my wife's iphone, my iphone and our Ipad when setting up icloud?
    So if I take a picture on my iphone, can I then see it on the ipad since it will be on a different @me ID?  Or could my wife see it on her phone?  Or does everyone have to be logged in to the same ID to see and share items?

  • How can I share an Apple ID with my wife or Can I use one Apple ID for two iPhones?

    My wife got her iPhone 4 before I got my iPhone 4s. To make things easier, I allowed her to use my Apple ID and iTunes to sync/backup her iPhone.  Now that I have an iPhone 4s... I would like to keep sharing the Apple ID and its associated content (be it apps, music, etc) but I would like our contacts and other individuals items to be kept separate.  What is the best solution for this situation?  Ultimately I want to avoid having to make yet another iTunes account/Apple ID and because we are married we share everything already.  Thanks for the help!

    Thanks.  I was afraid it would be something like that.  I bought it off my NIH grant from Apple, so there is no problem proving ownership.  Since I can easily live without iPhoto and iMovie on that computer, I probably won't bother, unless it prevents me from updating the OS when 10.9 comes out.  The strange thing is I can update stuff like Xcode (which I absolutely need) without a problem.  It appears to be just the apps that Apple both sells and provides with a new computer

  • Apple TV with iPad - for Business

    I am trying to replace as much of my Win7 laptop as possible with my new iPad. My only struggle so far is with presentations. I have my projector (with an HDMI port) that I am thinking I could connect to an Apple TV; however, I am frequently presenting in locations that have either no Wi-Fi or a secured connection that I would not be allowed to access. Do I have to have a Wi-Fi connection in order to connect my iPad to Apple TV? If so, would I be able to use the "Personal Hotspot" from the iPad?

    I am unable to make purchases from the Itunes store or Apps store with my new Ipad 2.  Requests verification of payment info. which is entered correctly, but an error that it is incorrect continues to appear.

    Try making a new apple I.d
    I had a similar problem and once I made a new I.d it accepted my debit card and I was able to go t iTunes an the apple store and buy things. The only problem is that you can't update any apps you have already installed on your iPad

  • Connecting to internet with iPad wifi

    I have an ipad that my high school gave to me. For some reason I can't connect to the wifi in my house. My ipad can pick up the signal that the wifi that is giving off, but when I enter the wifi password. It keeps saying that I am unable to connect to the wifi. I know the password is correct and that I'm not mixing up my wifi with my neighbors wifi. Does anyone think they can help me with my problem or do I need to go to able and get the inside of my ipad looked at? The ipad is a 3 generation with the latest software for it.

    It may be helpful to change the password of your wifi network to be absolutely sure you are entering it correctly.  Also, make sure the network name is a unique name (Linksys default is NOT a unique name).
