Can we make Apple TV an coax receiver? So I can use my iPad for watching TV.

I wonder if Apple can make an coax receiver who looks like a Apple TV box. Than my iPad can connect to that receiver box and I can watch TV on my iPad.
I can lay in bed or poop on the toilet and watch TV.  It would make my life so easy! Do anyone feel the same?

Sorry for that, was just an example. Let me take another example: I want to watch TV on my iPad when im am working in the garage so i can watch the news, and i do not have to stop working. It would make things easy and i  would buy such a box. Now i read that there are already some products on the market that give that feature.
Again it was just a free minded example. Sorry for that.

  • When I select a netflix movie on my iPad and push it to my apple TV, why doesn't the Apple TV take over the streaming, so that I can then use my iPad for other things?

    From what I can tell, when I select the movie and hit the airplay button to move it to the apple TV, my iPad is still doing all the work of streaming the movie.  Why can't the apple TV take over the heavy work at this point?  I'd like to be able to use my iPad as more of a remote with an awesome interface for the apple TV.  The netflix app on iPad is great, and the easiest way to browse movies, and pushing them to the apple TV is fantastic, but once the movie starts, I want to use my iPad for other things!!!  Can this be put on the "to do" list for devs?

    Have you tried the Remote app on iPhone/iPad to control AppleTV, do searches etc?  Should be easier than the remote alone and this does not involve Airplay.
    Please note, only users read/comment here  - your idea is quite sensible in my view (maybe have a 'Continue viewing on AppleTV' option or something.  I doubt this would be high on Apple's roadmap but send them feedback here:

    No one here is an employee or representative of Apple. We are all users like yourself. We cannot know when or if Apple will release any additional products.

    GSX, if you're referring to Apple's service by that name, is available only to employees of Apple-authorized service providers or self-servicing accounts. Unless you are employed by such an organization, you cannot access GSX. If you are employed by such an organization, they should set you up and give you the appropriate login information.
    If you are interested in becoming a certified Apple hardware technician, you can find information here:
    http://training.apple.com/certification/acmt
    Please note, though, that certification does not in and of itself give you access to any of the Apple resouces for support organizations; diagnostic tools, parts ordering, etc. You again must be employed by an authorized Apple support provider before you can gain such access.
    I have no idea what "knowlaged" might be.
    Regards.

  • Can anyone tell me how to scan documents to the icloud, so they will be on the ipad.  My husband is planning on using the ipad for work.

    Can anyone tell me how to scan documents to the icloud, so they will be on the ipad?  My husband is planning on using his ipad for business.  I haven't been able to even find anywhere that I could read about scanning documents.

    If you scanned the documents - what format did you save them in - pdf? If so, Pages will not open pdf files. you can save a file and export it as a pdf from Pages - but not the other way around.
    If you need simply view the documents - you can send them to the iPad via email or DropBox and them open and save them in iBooks. or Adobe Reader. both apps are free. Adobe Reader can use file sharing in iTunes to transfer the files.
    If you need to annotate the files - you will need an app like Goodreader - which can use file sharing from iTunes in order to transfer the files as well. GoodReader may work with iCloud now, but you will have to check that out in the App Store.
    You can read this to see how to use file sharing. It really is pretty easy to use. You do need to do this with your computer.

  • Hi, we are a small clinic that uses the iPads for therapy. If we purchase an app for one iPad, can all of them download the same app at no additional cost?

    Hi, we are a small clinic that uses the iPads for therapy. If we purchase an app for one iPad, can all of them download the same app at no additional cost?

    Allan was somewhat incomplete in his statement. While technically it would be possible, from a licensing standpoint you need one license for each iPad unless those iPads were all going to be used by the same person (which I think unlikely given your described use). Here are the relevant terms of the iTunes Store agreement (emphasis mine):
    "(ii) If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, you may download and sync an App Store Product for use by either (a) a single individual on one or more iOS Devices used by that individual that you own or control or (b) multiple individuals, on a single shared iOS Device you own or control. For example, a single employee may use an App Store Product on both the employee's iPhone and iPad, or multiple students may serially use an App Store Product on a single iPad located at a resource center or library. For the sake of clarity, each iOS Device used serially by multiple users requires a separate license."
    So you would legally need to purchase one copy of the app for each iPad, something which would require an iTunes Store account for each iPad. For normal purchases, each iTunes Store account would need an associated credit card or prepaid iTunes card.
    The Volume Purchase Plan works similarly - you still need one license and one iTunes Store account for each iPad - but the purchasing is centralized so you don't get billed multiple times. You get one recemption code for each license you purchase. See:

    I understand that the OP failed to do research. But then, I wasn't replying to the OP. I was replying to Chris. I have Verizon. I can talk and use data at the same time with my Droid Maxx. Therefore, the problem is not just with the network. It would be technically possible for an iPhone to do that on Verizon/Sprint if Apple had chosen to use a different chip, such as the kind other phone manufacturers have elected to use.
    Of course, this is probably all irrelevant to the OP's issue. It was merely a point of clarification, especially for those people who are used to being able to use both voice and data at the same time on Verizon. When they switch to an iPhone, they are often surprized at the limitation.
    Best of luck.

  • I'm trying to use my iPad for music on my apple tv

    I'm trying to use my iPad for music on my apple tv and my airplay compatible speaker. I want to use them at the same time and the music app on my iPad only allows me to listen to one at a time. I have to chose apple tv or speaker. Anyone know how to play both at the same time? Thanks!

    Hi there,
    the 4 digit pin is usually default to 0000 or 1111.
    If pairing, it can also be anything you choose, providing that you enter the same 4 digits into both items to pair.
    Good luck!

  • Ave been using an ipad for si have been uongs, and app purchases, using my wifes apple id. now i have a new apple lap top, i am wondering why would i get my own id as opposed to keeping "ours"

    i have been using an ipad for songs, apps, etc, i now am migrating to a mac book, my question is, i have been using my wifes apple id for all of our purchases, sharing, etc.  now that i have a laptop, i am wondering, why should i get my own user id or why would i not just continue on using our common id?
    she worries about us taking up too much space in the cloud, which i am not using yet but will learn

    i dont know why you would make a separate account either if you have been getting on fine before, unless you need to talk to your wife with iMessage or something
    if you do run out of cloud storage it's probably cheaper to just upgrade it than make your own apple id and have to buy everything again

    I don't think you can connect a printer since you won't have the printer drivers. I use FingerPrint from collobos.com to print to my non-AirPrint printers.

  • Whats the best way to back up/store music/docs from an old ibook, so I can use an ipad to access all of that content. I want to ditch the ibook altogether

    I need a solution for my parents. They have an ibook, which is trapped on old versions of OSX itunes etc. I want to get all their content to an accesible place, so they can access all of this on their ipad2. My initial thought was time capsule, as it also contains a base station for wifi, but i read i can only use this with a computer. An alternative might be the cloud. Any thoughts or suggestions? budget not an issue, but they only really need to use the ipad for leisure - they dont have need of a new laptop

    happy to administer (if possible) from the existing ibook - but no desire to shell out for a new laptop when they are happy with the laptop. they dont need any more than access to web, facetime, iplayer and email, all of which can be done on ipad
