Do You Really Need The Nike+sport shoes

Do you really need the nike+sport shoes to have the kit work or could you just buy any type of shoe and find a way to make the sensor stick?

i just cut a spot in the insole of my New Balance
high tops. (i walk/run in them because my ankles are
weak) just remeber to calibrate.
well strengthen your ankles and start runnning!

  • Do you really need the shoes to make this product work?

    I just saw some information on the TV about this. My question; if anyone can help with it, is do you REALLY need the shoes to make this work. I mean all it is is a little disk and a wireless plug-in for the Nano. It would really help me out if someone can tell me.

    You do not need the shoes to make it work. Check out this thread for ways people have gotten the sensor to work with non-nike+ shoes: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=559827&tstart=75

  • Does 6th Gen iPod Nano need the Nike + Sports Kit?

    I have the Nike+ sensor with my Sports Band. To use it with the new 6th Gen Nano, do I have to get the sports kit? Or is this feature built in like the iPhone 3GS and 4? The attachment to the new nano will make the form factor ugly.

    Hi toffeepup,
    As cocon said, you will need the receiver. Here are some of the references...
    Based on the iPod nano Specifications page it looks like you will need the Nike + iPod Sport Kit (with the receiver) for the new nano.
    From the bottom of that page, under "Which iPod are you?" it says, "Nike + iPod support".
    Compare that to the iPod touch which says, " Nike + iPod support built in".
    Also, from Rock and Run
    "Then connect the receiver to your iPod nano. iPod touch, iPhone 3GS, and iPhone 4 include built-in support for Nike + iPod, so no receiver is necessary."
    Note it does have a built in pedometer, and based on the Features page you can upload that to the Nike+ website. Not sure if that's enough for you.

  • Do you really need the 4-in-1 drivers

    Do you really need to install the 4-in-1 drivers if you are using windows 2000pro? What I notice is that windows 2000 pro install all the drivers but the agp drivers. Ihave the K7T TURBO 2 MOTHERBOARD.

    Do you have the abilty to backup or image your OS? If so bench mark your system using Sandra, PCMark and 3DMark, install the latest VIA Hyperion drivers and bench mark again.  I am confident that you will see an improvement.  The VIA drivers are written specifically for the chipset, like using Detonator drivers on NVidia cards.  If not rebuild you image from your back up.

  • Calibrating the Nike+ Sports Kit.

    After a couple of tries I think I got it now. The information that gets sent to iTunes and nikeplus.com is right, yet -- on the iPod nano itself window --, although the time and pace are correct (in History), the distance is not.
    I'll check this out at the nike site but their discussion groups are not so good.

  • Can I modify the frequency of the Nike+Sport Kit Notifications?

    When I set my Nike+Sport kit on the Time setting, it give me an update every 5 minutes. When running for 180 minutes, every 5 minutes tends to be very annoying. Is there a way to modify the notification setting? Say every 30 minutes instead of every 5 minutes?

    You might get a better response from folks who use this if you post in the Nike/sport kit forum here.

  • Do I need to purchase the nike sports pack for my 7th generation ipod nano? I want to get the audio feedback while I am walking.

    I purchased the ipod nano 7th generation because a coworker of mine has one and it talks to her while she is walking.
    Mine does not do that and I wonder if I have to purchase the nike sports pack sensor.
    Thank you

    Hey SeanW89,
    Thanks for the question. The iPod nano 7th generation has bluetooth functionality that can connect to the Nike+ sensor. You do not need to purchase the USB kit, but rather just the sensor itself:
    Nike + iPod Sensor - Apple Store (U.S.)
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA368LL/E/nike-ipod-sensor
    iPod nano (7th generation): Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5470
    Connect to Bluetooth accessories
    You can connect your iPod nano to compatible Bluetooth headsets and other accessories, including some hands-free systems in newer cars. You can also connect to a Nike+ sensor or a Bluetooth heart-rate monitor. iPod nano supports A2DP for audio streaming and AVRCP for controlling playback on Bluetooth devices.
    Note: FM radio will not play through a Bluetooth accessory.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Help! I just put a US sim card (i am from Canada) and got a monthly pre paid plan, and when I went to restore the iphone, it didn't work. I can't find backup that i did right before the sim was changed. I really need the info that was there! Please help..

    Help! I just purchased a US sim card/monthly pre-paid plan (i am from Canada) as I am travelling in the states for a month, and when I went to restore the iphone, it didn't work.

    Hold on,
    Have you talked to your carrier to confirm the unlock?
    What was the procedure you did to unlock the phone?
    Standard unlocking procedure once processed by the carrier:
    Backup in iTunes
    Erase the phone (ignore restore terminology here)
    Plug the phone to the computer and then launch iTunes
    Wait for unlock notification.
    Restore the backup.

  • I created a photo album on my iPhone 4s - edited photos etc. but I cannot figure out how to transfer it to my pc (using Windows 8).  The only folder in the iphone drive is the one which has the Camera roll photos :( Help please - I really need the photos!

    I created a photo album on my iPhone 4s - edited photos etc. but I cannot figure out how to transfer it to my pc (using Windows 8).  The only folder in the iphone drive is the one which has the Camera roll photos Help please - I really need the photos!

    The camera roll is not part of the sync process at all.
    You should be importing these photos to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.  Youc an organize them on your computer and sync the to the iphone if you wish.
    The photos sync from the computer to the iphone is one way.
    The iphone mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.

  • Do You really Need a Screen Protector?

    I'd just like to know if you really need this, the GS has a different coating on their screen than the previous models. Do these protectors really work, do you need them on your GS for insurance?

    A screen protector on the new 3GS would defeat the purpose of the oleophobic coating. I have tried protectors on my Palms but I prefer bare back with the iPhone. Screen protectors are a pain to apply without leaving wrinkles and bubbles and you can never replicate the smooth feel of the glass. You will also lose a little bit of screen brightness as they will never be 100% transmitting. I carry the iPhone in my pocket with the screen facing my pants leg and my wallet on top without an unsightly bulge. I don't put keys or lose change in that pocket. I agree that if you are throwing the iphone into a bag, purse, or backpack with lots of sharp objects (like your eating utensils or Bowie knife set), a slip cover might be a good idea. I bought one but it was so tight and hard to remove that I don't use it. Maybe others can suggest a good case that preserves the slimness of the iPhone.

    I wonder if the disk being referred to is actually your iPod which is not plugged in. Maybe something has stuck thinking the iPod should be there.
    Try completely removing all the iTunes related programs according to this method.

    Restart you PC and see if startup improves.
    If it doesn't improve you need to consider the possibility that there is something else going on.
    If The problem goes away, hopefully a fresh install will be OK.

  • If we use the $495 DPS service we don't really need the cloud correct?

    If we use the $495 DPS service we don't really need the cloud, correct?

    The 495 covers a pro account which allows for subscription apps as well as single edition. If all you’re interested in is single edition then Creative Cloud is the way to go.

  • Do you really need an IDE?

    Do you really need to have an IDE for Java? Does it make things easier for a newbie?
    Thanks

    I hear what you're saying... I don't think BlueJ should be used to write HelloWorld, but after compiling something basic on the command line I think it can be a decent introduction to Java.
    I started programming a year ago and after a month or so of working in Notepad++ and the command line I used BlueJ until I felt I had outgrown it. It isn't anything spectacular, as you know, and is sort of buggy, but I still think it can aid in the learning of Java for someone new to the language.
    In particular I think BlueJ does a nice job of emphasizing the idea of objects -- having a visual representation of your classes as little UML-like diagrams that you can interactively play with is kind of cool. Being able to right-click to create Objects and see how they interact with each other is, in retrospect, I think, probably not a bad way to learn.

  • My LR previews data file has just gone over 50GB, how can I shrink it as I really need the space on my laptop?

    My LR previews data file has just gone over 50GB, how can I shrink it as I really need the space on my laptop?

    Or if you don't want to delete all of it, you can just discard 1:1 previews using Library->Previews menu - that may or may not buy you the space you need.
    If you do opt for deleting the whole thing, here is an idea to keep it from going back to 50G: change the size/quality of standard previews and/or the policy for auto-removing 1:1 previews (Lr Preferences -> Catalog Settings -> File Handling).
