Can you read books on the ipad in direct sunlight

can you read books on the ipad in direct sunlight ?

Not very easily no. If you can get a non-reflective screen cover it might be a bit better, but it probably still won't be as good as, for example, a Kindle device is.

Can you download and read books with the iPad?

Can you download and read books with the iPad?

Yes. There is the free iBooks app which then allows you to download books from Apple's book store. Kindle also has an app and there are other e-reader apps.
The one thing to consider, the iPad is a backlit screen, so it's like reading off a comptuer screen. Some have issues with eye strain so just bear that in mind.

Can you read books on Mac laptop that were purchased on iPod touch?

I bought a few books through ibooks on my Ipod touch, but there are some forms that I want to print and recipes that I would like to see in the bigger screen of my laptop, but although they show as purchased on my laptop I cannot open them to read them.

If you wish to read books on your Mac, get the Kindle App for Mac, and purchase books from the Amazon Kindle Store.
In contrast to the restrictive iBook format, Kindle books can be read on Mac, iOS devices, and many other platforms.

Can you use IMAP with the ipads mail feature?

Can you use IMAP with the ipads mail feature?

Kappy,
Yes, our domain and email accounts are on a server that does accept IMAP. Also, our mac mini and imacs are all set up for IMAP. Buying an ipad will enable me to work from home during this winter.
Another ?: do you know if you can use text edit with the iPads mail feature? Reason being we have about 100 generic emails that all we have to do is change a few fields before sending out. Can this be integrated in without having to recreate all these messages?

How can I read books from the library on my iPad?

I've downloaded Over Drive and Bluefire in an attempt to read books downloaded from the library. Although both libraries say it's easy to transfer from my home computer to the iPad, nothing has worked so far. Has anyone had success?

Remove, but not uninstall from the device? Where would they go if you did that?
Once you delete an App it gets removed form the homescreen, and deleted from the iPad.
There is no "Less used Apps" area or anything like that.
Everything you have, and you can access, is on the home screen. There is no other place to access Apps.

How can I read books on my iPad 1?

I have an old IPad 1 and can't find a book reader app that I can load, on this old operating system.

Download the apps to iTunes on your computer. Once downloaded you can go to the purchased section in the App Store on the iPad and download a compatible version.
5.1.1 is the highest iOS for an original iPad, and I think most book reader apps need at least 4.3, so you might have to upgrade the iOS.

Can you upload files from the iPad to a Web Browers

I recently received an iPad and I love it. I would also love to leave my laptop at home and only use the iPad while I'm away. One thing I think is missing for this to be possible is the lack of a native filesystem, as far as I know.
I know there are many apps that allow you to store and sync documents but I can't find a way to upload files to a website. For example, if I'm on a job site that requires me to upload my resume, the browse button on the browser is not active. I can't upload the files using the documents I've stored in Pages or in readdledocs.
Does anyone else think this is a major shortcoming?
Is there a way to do that I'm not aware of?
You assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
joe

I had the same complaint. I actually stopped using my laptop for the iPad. It was frustrating having to go to the laptop just to upload a resume to career builder. I just downloaded iCab browser in the app store. I sent my resume to an external email account and signed in. You need to open the email through the iCab browser and download the file there. ICab has its own download drop box. I was able to them go to career builder and upload a resume without a problem. It may be a pain to start emailing files to yourself just to import them into the app but it's worth it not having to either copy and paste or go back to your laptop. Hope that helps and you found a job.

Can you still not pair the iPad 2 to an iPhone

I have been trying to pair my iPad 2 to my iPhone 4 via Bluetooth, when I turn on Bluetooth they both just stay in searching mode. I read that you couldn't do this but it was from last year so I'm wondering is this is still the case. Thanks in advanced and if there is a way to do this can you please let me know.

Am having the same problem as a number of other people.
Have set up a Personal Hotspot on my iPhone so that I can tether my iPad to the 3GS service and that way access internet without wifi. The devices find each other using Bluetooth. Hopefully that much is clear.
It worked for a little while, but now both devices just keep searching and I've gotten a message that my iPad is "not supported." Any experts out there?

Can you add 3g to the ipad mini later if you purchase the non cellular model?

I am interested in buying an ipad mini but I'm not sure whether to get the ipad mini with cellular data. So does anyone know if I can add the 3g later to the ipad mini if I purchase the non cellular model?
Thanks,
Emily x

No you can't, and the ipad mini is 4g LTE. It doesn't come with the hardware to enable cellular if you don't buy one with cellular

Can you video chat with the ipad in a venue other than face time

I want to video chat with my moms new iPad but I cant get facetime on my mac... Please help

Cashintze-
As Roaminggnome suggests, the iPhone version of Skype works well on the iPad. It can be expanded to fit the screen, but the picture is slightly sharper at the smaller size.
I understand there are also video chat Apps from Google and Microsoft.

Can you read books purchased on iTunes on your pc?

My iPhones has a cracked screen. I am waiting until march when my next update is avail to upgrade. I would like to purchase a book on iTunes and read it on there as well. Is this possible or do I have to use iBooks, newstand etc..
Thanks.

To read ibooks bought from Apple you need the iBooks app, so you need an iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch - so far Apple haven't made a Mac or PC program with which you can read them. If you buy the book from, for example, Amazon then they have a Kindle program for your computer with which you can read purchases from them

Can you transfer notes from the ipad to the computer via the cable connection?

Does anyone know how to transfere notes from my ipad to my computer by using the cable connection? I can download photos like that but haven't succeeded with my notes.

Notes, at least in my experience, go into the notes part of my outlook. I sync my calendar and notes to the outlook on my computer.
You would set that up under the 'info' part of iTunes. You'll see the option when you have your iPad connected to your computer.

Can you mail groups from the iPad mail program?

OK I am going out of my mind trying to send an email using one of my contact groups. I have a group with about 100 emails in it that I send email to once or twice a week and I can't seem to find a way to select the group and send the email. I know it is probley me, I must be trying to hard or over thinking it. Cause this is a basic feature of any email program since 1990. So I am sure I am just missing it.

There is an app called Mail2Group. This works fine if you compose your email however you can't use it to forward an email that you want to resend. They say that it should work both ways once Apple makes some kind of fix. I'm not sure it's Apple responsibility.
Group mailing is important for iPad's further success. It will allow people who aren't computer literate to send group emails, such as the elderly who never had or wanted a computer but want to communicate their groups of common interest e.g. tennis or stitching etc.

HT204291 can you use airplay on the iPad first generation?

I'm trying to use my first generation Ipad to connect to my apple tv, can I use mirroring on ipad 1?

You can use airplay bur mirroring is only on iPad 2 or 3 as it requires more processing power.
