Does iOS have the ability to automatically show me shipping and tracking info or flight status based on information in my email?

I am considering switching from an android to an iPhone and one of the features I use heavily on my android is my google now cards. It automatically reminds me to check in for flights and gives me flight status information based on flight information in my email. It then shows me a card for the weather where I am and where I'm going. I also use it for shipment tracking; if i have an email that has a shipping confirmation number, I have a google card that automatically shows me the tacking number and tracking status. I was wondering if Apple had something similar and if it was through Siri or something else? I have an iPad and I haven't seen features like these on it. Everything I've read about Siri so far is that the information given is based on you prompting with a question as opposed to proactively giving me information I need, which is more how I use my android today. If the answer is to us the google now app for iOS, does will it interface with my email and calendar to make relevant cards seamlessly on the iPhone like it currently does on my android phone? Thanks in advance for the help/advice!

  • Does Adobe Reader for iOS have the ability to open inbedded links to additional PDF docs?  If not, then what would be the best way to use these already created PDF's?

    Does Adobe Reader for iOS have the ability to open inbedded links created with Acrobat Standard to additional PDF docs?  If not, then what would be the best way to use these already created PDF's on an I Pad?

    driddy61,
    As of June 2014, none of the Adobe Reader mobile products support the hyperlink action for opening a separate PDF document.
    Adobe Reader for iOS
    Adobe Reader for Android
    Adobe Reader Touch for Windows 8
    In addition, the Reader mobile products do not open multiple windows/documents simultaneously, which would make the navigation between PDF documents nearly impossible. (Once a hyperlink takes you to a different PDF document, you have no way to go back to the original PDF document.)
    The only Adobe Reader product that fulfills your department's requirements is Adobe Reader XI (mostly for Windows/Mac desktop/laptop computers).  Acrobat Pro and Standard are paid products.
    Because you are in search of a less expensive device for your department, you could get a Windows tablet instead of a Windows desktop/laptop computer. Microsoft Surface Pro (that you've mentioned in your previous reply) is just one example.  You can also find other less expensive Windows tablets.
    Tablets
    However, please keep in mind that there are two different types of Windows tablets running two different operating systems.
    (a) A Windows tablet with an Intel-based processor running Windows 8.1 Pro
    Example: Surface Pro 3
    You can install and run traditional desktop apps (e.g. Adobe Reader XI) and new Windows Store apps ("Modern" or "Metro-style" apps).
    (b) A Windows tablet with an ARM-based processor running Windows RT 8.1
    Example: Surface 2
    You can only install and run Windows Store apps (e.g. Adobe Reader Touch) but not traditional desktop apps like Adobe Reader XI.
    In general, type (b) tablets are more affordable than type (a) tablets.  However, if you want to run Adobe Reader XI, you do need to check the technical specification of each tablet and make sure the following conditions are met.
    Processor: Intel
    Operating system:  Windows 8/8.1 or Windows 8/8.1 Pro, not RT
    Hope this helps you choose the right device for your department.  Please let us know if you have any questions about system requirements or supported features in the Adobe Reader products.

  • Does imail have the ability to BCC to multiple addresses?

    Does imail have the ability like Microsoft Outlook (for outlook you send via BCC) to send an email to multiple addresses without the recipients seeing the distribution list? Thanks

    Hello Roger,
    From Apple Mail.app Help:
    "Sending an email to several people:
    You can send a single message to several recipients.
    To send email to more than one recipient, type the addresses, separated by commas, in the To or Cc (carbon copy) fields.
    To send someone a copy without other recipients knowing, type the person's address in the Bcc (blind carbon copy) field. (If the Bcc header is not showing in your email message, choose View > Bcc Header.)
    To have the Bcc or Cc header appear in all emails you send, choose Mail > Preferences and click Composing. Choose "Always Bcc (or Cc) myself." You can later change the Bcc or Cc address.
    To send to a group of people, create a group address in Address Book, then use the group address in your email instead of the individual addresses. See Address Book Help for more information on creating a group.
    If you're using a group address and you want the other recipients to see the members of the group, choose Mail > Preferences and click Composing. Select "When sending to a group, show all member addresses."
    You won't see the Bcc field until composing message and you open it from the View Menu>Bcc Header.
    hope that is what you are looking for,
    littleshoulders

  • Does Facetime have the ability to be HIPAA compliant using a 3/4G instead of WPA2 wifi network?

    Does FaceTime have the ability to be HIPAA compliant using a 3/4G instead of WPA2 wifi network?

    Apple says that FaceTime is "protected by end-to-end encryption" but has not detailed that encryption anywhere I can find, and most references are to FaceTime when using WPA2 Enterprise security on WiFi. If you are with a company or organization that is considering using FaceTime for transmission of PHI, this is something your legal consultant and HIPAA Compliance Officer probably needs to address since it will probably involve your specific cell carrier.
    Regards.

    No.  This can only be done by you, and only if you have enabled Find My iPhone before it was stolen.  If it was you may be able to remotely wipe it if it's online.  See http://osxdaily.com/2012/06/05/remote-wipe-iphone-or-ipad/.

  • I have an older Power Mac and it does not have the ability/hardware to connect to my wireless network.It is on 2nd floor which has no ethernet connections available. How can I get connected wirelessly?

    I have an older Power Mac desktop computer. I do not believe it has the hardware to connect wirelessly to my wireless network. The computer is located on the 2nd floor of my house where there are no ethernet network connections so I would have to use wireless to connect to the internet. I have a wireless LinkSys router downstairs that I use to create my wireless network. I also have a Time Capsule upstairs but without the ability to plug an ethernet network cable into it, I cannot use it to get internet access t the computer.
    What hardware can I add to give me the abiity to connect the Power Mac to my wireless network?
    Is there a way perhaps to link routers? IE. Can I somehow have my existing wireless router downstairs connect wirelessly with the Time Capsule upstairs that i could then plug the Power Mac into for connectivity?
    Not sure what version of OS this computer is currently using but do know it does not have the newer dual Intel processors. As such I am unable to update to newer OS versions.

    While uselessSABOTAGE's advice is great, in case of future issues, it would helps us in the future if you would post accurate tech specs of your model iMac.
    You info states you have an older IMac PowerMac, but is also says your OS X version is OS X 10.7.2.
    This is not possible. OS X 10.7.2 Lion only runs on Intel CPU Macs.
    Please, go up to the Apple symbol in the upper top left of OS X main menu bar. Click the symbol. Then click About this Mac. A popup window appears that gives some basic info. Then, click the More Info button and both post your iMacs complete specs by selecting/highlighting all of the info and copy paste this into a reply to this post, editing out your iMac's serial number. Then update the info you posted in your user profile with some of this new found data for future postings.

  • HT4623 How do I update if my iPad does not have the software update button in between about and usage?

    How do I update my software to iOS 5 if I do not have the update software button in between about and usage in my general settings?

    You'll need to connect the iPad to a computer running the latest version of iTunes.  If the computer does not belong to you, make sure you create a backup (not a sync) before installing the update.

  • Does applocker have the ability to prevent the use of Psiphone?

         Not entirely sure I am asking this question in the correct area, but any help would be appreciated. Psiphone is an application that users launch to beat preventive measures to browse the web. It does not install and simply runs
    an executable in the background. We cannot block the IP, or port that it uses because we use it to also connect to other parts of our infrastructure. Other than dropping Endpoint and going with another prevention software which has a "default deny application"
    setting, can this work to block against this application?

    Hi J.Runyon,
    The main purpose is to prevent the Psiphone application running ,right ?
    AppLocker has the ability to deny applications from running simply by excluding them from the list of allowed applications .
    Here is a link for reference of using Scenarios.

  • In Windows 7, I have two alternative languages available. however, Firefox does not recognize the alternat keyboards when I choose them. Does Firefox have the ability to add other language keyboards to be available when selected?

    Windows 7 and previous versions gives the ability to add additional keyas validboard selections to be available when selected. The command logo is located on the bottom right of the bottom command bar. I have tried several times to type emails in my Yahoo Mail program while in Firefox, and though the selection shows on the bottom bar, the keyboard is still in English. I do not wish to change the operating language. I just want to have the availability when needed.

    Easiest to switch the keyboard layout is to assign a specific shortcut key to each layout (e.g. Shift+Ctrl+9)

  • Does iweb have the ability to use favicons?

    How can I simply (if possible) insert a favicon into my website address? 

    Do not think iWeb.
    Create an image of 57x57 pixels.
    Here's mine :
    Put it in the root of the webserver.
    Rename it favicon.ico
    All modern browsers will find it and display it in the address field of the browser.
    OR
    Create an image of 57x57 pixels. Put the image in the root of the webserver. Rename it favicon.ico and then paste this code in a HTML Snippet :
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
         var head = parent.document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
         var favicon = parent.document.createElement("link");
         favicon.rel = ("shortcut icon");
         favicon.href = ("../favicon.ico");
         head.appendChild(favicon);
    </script>
    OR
    Create an image of 57x57 pixels. Put the image in the root of the webserver. Rename it favicon.ico and open your published webpage in a HTML Editor of your choice and paste this line in the <head> section of the page :
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://example.com/favicon.ico" />

  • Does Elements have the Photoshop Exposure adjustments for Gamma, Exposure and Offset, and where?  Is Gamma missing?

    I have been a photoshop user since version 3, and am considering switching to Elements 13, as I am not a professional, but do this for home pictures.  I found that the Exposure Adjustments setting is fabulous, where I can adjust Gamma, Exposure and Offset, and the the Shadow and Highlight is also great.  Does Elements have an EXPOSURE (Gamma, Exposure and Offset) adjustment tool, or something close, and if not the same, how inferior?  Same Question for Shadow/Highlights. 

    As to saving edited items in ACR Edited formats or as a JPEG, unless I Open Image and save the file as a JPG, the edited RAW image is not a portable file, as only Photoshop or Elements will compile the edits from the embedded information. I do see that moving from RAW to Elements Normal mode, I can save the files and do other forms of editing, but I may have to give up a 16bit image for an 8 bit image to do any editing in normal Elements.
    When you are using only the 'Done' button with a jpeg without opening and saving in the editor, you have written the settings to the metadata without altering the pixel values. In my own case, That's enough for 80% of my shots. That means: non-destructive editing (the original is still available), parametric editing, the settings are saved, can be used for the next picture and take minimal disk space. You don't need to keep a version set. On the other hand, only Adobe software can read it. Those edits in ACR are calculated in 16 bits even if jpeg is only 8 bits.
    On the other hand, if you open the file in the editor, you have the choice to open the converted version in either 8 or 16 bits. Of course, if you want to save it in 16 bits, you'll save in psd or tiff.
    What do you know about Photoshop's ImageReady.  It appears to offer simpler interfaces to normal Photoshop.
    Sorry, I don't know anything abut ImageReady...
    As to Elements, it appears that many of the more sophisticated image adjustments that exist in Photoshop are there, but in an 8 bit depth, buried in their different menus.
    There are a lot of discussions about 8 or 16 bits depth in Elements. The main idea is that you can't use layers in 16 bits (except with a clunky workaround) and that you can't use local tools in 16 bits. On the other hand, nearly all global edits are available in 16 bits, including many filters and plugins. And with ACR, you can open jpegs in 16 bits... For me, even if I know that I can do nearly everything I need in 16 bits in the editor, I must say that first editing in ACR makes that unnecessary most of the time.

  • I want to download digital stamps but would need to change the size to fit my project. Does keynote have the ability to change picture size?

    I'm trying to find a app that will allow me to change the size of a digital stamp. I have heard that Adobe Photoshop will allow me to do this but that is outside of my price range right now. Would Keynote allow me to do this?

    sorry the website went down for maintenance during my last reply.
    Yes Keynote will work OK as a print application for standard image formats;  TIFF, JPEG, PNG, PICT
    Drag and drop as many graphics as you want on to a page.
    Disply the ruler;   view menu > ruler
    Go into  Keynote menu > Preferences   and set the Ruler to inches or centimeters
    you can then drag a guide line out from the ruler to help size the graphic to the measurement you want
    ruler set to inches to measure a 5" x 3" box
