Can I use gps applications like tomtom at the ipad mini with mobile data transfer turned off?

Need help about ipad mini.
The information on the apple web page refers that only the 3G versions have gps capabilities.
Wath is not clear to me is if the gps works only when coneted with 3G data transfer, or it works without it, if I download some software like tomtom or navigon.
Best regards
Pedro

You can use it without being connected to 3G. Only the 3G/4G iPads have a built-in GPS chip, the wifi-only models don't, and you can use apps such as TomTom with it which contain the maps, you don't need to be connected to 3G (or even have activated 3G on the iPad) or wifi to then use it.

    I have a iphone 5 and looking to buy a ipad mini can i use
    My iphone 5 sim in the ipad mini to get internet

    First you have to have an iPad with cellular 3/4G. Using the iPad on cellular is separate from your iPhone's cellular plan. You have to sign up to the iPad's cellular plan.

  • Can i use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air

    Can I use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air?

    It's really not recommended. The iPhone's 5w charger does not output enough current to properly charge the battery. It -may- charge but if it did, it would charge the iPad very slowly.
    This would be like trying to fill a bucket of water (iPad) with a squirt gun (5w charger)
    Also under iOS 7, the charging requirements are much stricter than iOS 6. You'll likey get an error message if you try.

  • Can I use an external hard drive for my ipad mini?

    Can I use an external hard drive for my ipad mini?

    There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.
    The Kingston Wi-Drive, which costs $50 for the 16 Gigabyte, and then $30 more for every 16 gigs more. It works by you turning it on and then accessing the files on it from an app that you download on your iDevice. You can access music, movies, and other stuff. No connections or anything, it works like a WiFi connection, you connect to it from the setting on the iPad under wireless networks.
    Then there is the Seagate GoFlex, which some would recommend over the Wi-Drive. But this one costs $199 and had 500 Gigabytes of storage. It works the sameway as the Kingston: no wires, runs over its wireless connection. You can actually fit up to 300 HD movies on it.
    Another option:
    Expand your iPad's storage capacity with HyperDrive

  • Can i use an iphone5 charger to charge an ipad mini?

    can i use an iphone5 charger to charge an ipad mini?

    You resurrected a 2 month old thread to say its not possible?
    What is not possible exactly?
    Because clearly charging an iPad mini with an iPhone 5 charger is totally possible.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD810LL/A/apple-5w-usb-power-adapter?fnode=48
    That's the charger that ships with an iPhone 5, check the compatibility at the bottom of that page. It includes the iPad Mini.

  • I have a Sony AC-U50AD charger can I use it on my ipod touch and ipad mini - there is a switch for "ipod"

    I have a Sony AC-U50AD charger can I use it on my ipod touch and ipad mini - there is a switch for "ipod" - I've had the adapter for several years and I think it's ok for my ipod touch but since it pre-dates both of these products I want to try and make sure it's ok to use with them before I do use it. Thanks.

    If iTunes does not see your iPod then your only hope is a data recovery company. Not cheap.
    However, you may be able to get some photos by:
    Photos
    - If they are in an iPod backup then restore another iPOd, iPhone or iPad from that backup. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    - If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:

  • I am considering purchase of the new iPad and already own iphone 3GS, can I use my phone to tether to the iPad and use the phones 3G connection? This will allow me to buy the cheaper version of the iPad without 3G.

    I am considering purchase of the new iPad and already own iPhone 3GS, can I use my phone to tether to the iPad and use the phones 3G connection?
    This will allow me to buy the cheaper version of the iPad without 3G.

    You can tethe, but depending on carrier you may need to pay for that option... I've decided to have my phone on one provider and my ipad on another so i always have connectivity... More expensive in the long run, but I need to make sure I am always "on" for work
    YMMV

  • I am trying to attend an online class, but can't get to it.  i called the instructor and she told me to turn off the popup blocker.  do i have one of those?

    I am trying to attend an online class, but can't get to it.  i called the instructor and she told me to turn off the popup blocker.  do i have one of those?

    You didn't mention what web browser you are using so it's hard to say.
    One quick thing you can try if you need to log into the class right now is to download a different browser. Assuming you're using Safari, some possible alternatives include Firefox by Mozilla, and Chrome by Google.
    If you continue to experience problems please provide more information about the iMac, version of the Mac OS, and which browser version you are using. Most browsers have the ability to block pop-up windows. You just need to check your options. Here's what it looks like in the current version of Safari.

    Hello,
    The item category assignemnt needs to be changed, the item category should be relevent for 'order related billing' and set the order related billing type in the order type config billing area.
    Make the necessary copy controls between the order type and the billing type.

  • Can you easily scratch the back of the iPad mini with your fingernails?

    I have a iPad mini with retina display and I'm worried that my fingernails might scratch the back.

    It is probably possible but I would think unlikely. The back is made of aluminum which could get scratched but I don't think your nails could do it. Neither my iPad nor my wife's iPad have ever gotten scratched from our use.

  • Why can't I download applications from Internet on my iPad mini?

    Hi, I have been trying to download applications from the internet on my iPad mini but i can't download them through safari or other 3rd Party browsers. I tried downloading them through many download managers but they can't download the applications either. I tried syncing my iPad with the computer through iTunes and when I opened the app on my iPad, it said "file format not supported" even though iPad mini supports it.Please reply.

    The only place to get apps or other programs for your iPad is the app store - either directly on your iPad via the App Store app or on your computer's iTunes and then syncing them. PC and Mac programs (and android apps) are not compatible with the iPad, they are different operating systems.
    What were you trying to sync to the iPad via your computer's iTunes ? If it's an app that you downloaded from the iTune app store and it's compatible with iPads (some apps only work on iPhones) then you should be able to sync it - if it's not syncing then have you tried deleting the app from your computer's iTunes and re-downloading it from the store ?

  • Can you use facetime from cellular iPhone to wifi iPad Mini?

    I've noticed I can connect from my iPhone 4S to an iPad Mini when we are both using wifi.
    Howver, I cannot connect to the iPad when I am using cellular only (no wifi) on the iPhone (the iPad is wifi only).
    I can connect to other iPhones when we both use cellular, so I know it's not an issue due to a carrier restriction of my cellular use (Verizon).
    Is there an incompatiblity between using facetime from a cellular device to a wifi-only device? I would have though Apple would have a bridge between internet and cellular data for this.
    Thanks

    This is copied from the Apple iOS features website.
    *FaceTime video calling requires a FaceTime-enabled device for the caller and recipient and a Wi-Fi connection. FaceTime over a cellular network requires iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, or iPad (3rd generation) with cellular data capability. Availability over a cellular network depends on carrier policies; data charges may apply.
    Sometimes I find the "small print" to be even more confusing, but the way that I interpret this is that you have to go cellular to cellular. Cellular to WiFi doesn't work. It does seem to make sense, if you are sending the "message" or trying to connect over cellular, the person on the other end would need to pick up the "message" via cellular since it was sent that way by you.
