"at present I have disabled the bluetooth - if my ipad leaves my home and I want to use it outside the house do I have to activate the bluetooth?"

Can any one advise me please - I have recently bought the ipad mini and I have disabled the bluetooth application on the advise read in a book about the ipad - the ipad will stay home normally - however should I decide to take it out and want to use it, do I have to activate the bluetooth to be able to use it away from home?

You only need bluetooth if you are connecting to and using a bluetooth accessory, like BT wireless headphones.  You can leave bluetooth on or off and go ahead and use your iPad normally anywhere.
Your iPad will work anywhere - the only things you may have to alter as you travel around with it are cellular and wifi settings.  If you have a wifi only iPad mini, you may need to select wifi networks when away from your home network in order to connect.  If you have a wifi & cellular iPad mini, you would usually turn off cellular at home and use your home wifi connection.  But when away from home, and if outside of range of any free wifi hotspots, you would then need to enable the cellular connection in order to get on the internet.
But using your iPad, and having a data connection are independent things to a degree.  You don't need any connection (wifi, or cellular) to read a book or document you've downloaded, or watch a movie you've downloaded, or listen to music or podcasts you've already downloaded.  Your iPad only needs the data connection if what you wish to do requires internet access.  And Bluetooth is only needed if you want to connect to and use a bluetooth accessory.

  • If I buy a iPad online with cellular and wifi can I use it outside the United States both cellular and wifi?

    If buy a iPad online do the cellular plan come lock to a single provider, or can be use with any provider?
    If I buy on the USA store can I use it outside the USA? 

    Read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_iOS_devices  it lists available models of ipad and under connectivity it mentions what features each has.  Make sure that what you choose is compatible for use in US and whatever other country you want

    I have a new computer and I want to use the "MasterPassword" again. How do I import all of the saved website passwords/logins from my old FireFox computer?

    A couple of methods.
    The first is to copy 2 files, key3,db and signons.sqlite from the profile folder of the old computer t the profile folder of the new computer. For details of how to find the profile folder see the [[profiles]] article.
    The second method is to install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2848/ Password Exporter] add-on on both computers and use that to export/import the passwords.

    No, not unless it is simply a network connection.
    How is your IPTV being provided.. if it is using a separate vlan or separate vpi/vci in the adsl connection. Who is your ISP?
    Is the TP-Link ADSL?
    Is the IPTV using a separate voice channel on adsl?
    Or a different vlan.
    Sorry but it is something where a definite answer is not possible unless you provide all the details.
    The setups are unique to each ISP around the world..
    Here is one for our local ISP.
    http://www.avenard.org/iptv/Setup.html
    He has a section on getting this working with apple router over wireless.. look
    http://www.avenard.org/iptv/IPTV_and_Wireless.html
    Google around and see if other people have had success.. the whole setup is tricky.. and it is hard if nobody has used it who actually understands networking.

  • Hi, I've been using the 3D function in PS, upgraded to CC2104 and it was disabled (need more VRAM). I then reinstalled CS6 and was able to use it for a day and now, today, I am getting the same message I got with PS CC2014 saying my VRAM is too low again.

I'm in the middle of a project that needs to go live tomorrow. HELP!!! Please.

    Photoshop requires 512 Meg of VRAM or more to use the 3D features - that's been the same for version 14 (CC) and now 15 (CC 2014). Check Help->System Info to see how much your card says it has.

    You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
    Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

  • Hi there - I have an iPhone 4s which I bought from the apple store here in the UK. I am going to South Africa at the end of the year and I want to use a SA sim card - do I need it unlocked?

    Hi there - I have an iPhone 4s which I bought from the apple store here in the UK. I am going to South Africa at the end of the year and I want to use a SA sim card - do I need it unlocked?

    Hi,
    As far as I know, all the iPhones bought online or in the Apple Store ar unlocked.
    Only carriers (e.g. T-mobile, Vodafone, O2) are able to lock a phone, Apple won't do that (afaik).
    This would mean that you shouldn't need to unlock your iPhone.
    Kind regards,

    Hello guys! I have a problem. I bought my iphone 5 from Bulgaria with contract from Globul operator, but i change my operator and i want to use my iphone with other chip, but i can't. I go to the office of Globul operator but they told me it's locked with us, they told me your contract with us must be finish and after that. And can i have a chance to unlocked my iphone before.

    No. Since Globul is one holding the lock and they told you only after your contract expires then there is no way to get it unlocked.

  • I want to make a slideshow to view on my television with image's duration ranging from seconds to an hour or more and I want to use my iPhone or iPad mini to control the television through my Apple tv.  I've been unable to locate an app that will do this.

    I want to make a slideshow to view on my television with image's duration ranging from seconds to an hour or more and I want to use my iPhone or iPad mini to control the television through my Apple tv.
    I've been unable to locate an app that will do this.  The Photos app that comes with the phone or iPad has extremely limited duration controls.  PhotoStream seems to load everything from my phone or iPad not allowing me to just load up a set group of images.
    iPhoto for iPad is getting some terrible recent reviews.  I tried a couple other free apps but they don't use Airplay.
    I can do something like this with iPhoto and my MB Air, but it's kind of ugly to have the computer open in order to connect by Airplay to my Apple TV.  I've thought the iPad or iPhone would be a lower profile controller.
    Am I out of luck?

    Thanks for your help.  Since I'm uninterested in loading all my photos (the only option) into photostream, I won't be able to use the settings in ATV.  I guess I'm just stuck with using iPhoto on my MB Air.  Thanks again.
