Does the iTouch have GPS?
Does the iTouch come with GPS or is that extra?
No GPS.
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby wifi routers that are in Apple's database. You do not have to be connected to the network/router to use that router's location.

Does the N85 have a standalone GPS or AGPS
Hi,
I'm considering buying a N85. Only questions that remains unanswered is: Does the N85 have a standalone GPS or AGPS? I prefer the former since I visit countries that have very limited network service.
Does anyone know the answer. The site or user manual doesn't provide the answer.
Thanks
DExactly. If a device has A-GPS then it also has straight-up GPS. All you have to do is deactivate A-GPS in the positioning methods to use and select only GPS, and you will no longer need network coverage.

does this computer have gps (my daughter's was just stolen), is there a way to remotely disable it?
First off, I'm sorry to hear about the theft of your daughter's computer. The good news is that all Apple computers have their serial number in multiple places (depending on the model) and Apple maintains a list of every one of them. Do you have the serial number? If not, you can get it from the retailer you purchased it from.
As far as GPS and disabling it, it is going to depend on several factors but the short answer is probably not. I mean, Yes, there is a a way to detect location in most modern Mac's through a web browser using Geolocation (W3C API) but there is no onboard GPS; disabling the machine remotely would require you to have 'Back to my Mac' already set up on it from iCloud. There might also be some third party tools available that I'm not aware of.
Again, I'm really sorry to hear about the stolen computer. I'll keep an eye on this thread to see if you have any other questions.
BTW, what model and year is the computer that was stolen? -
Does the new ipad gps works without 4g reception
does the new ipad gps works without 4g reception?
Yes.
More GPS information...
GPS signals are separate from and completely unrelated to both the Internet and the cellular telephone network. GPS signals come directly from the GPS satellites. They provide latitude and longitude information to GPS receivers. Navigation software then takes that latitude/longitude info and converts it to land mass, roads, bridges, highways, buildings, etc.
Most navigation software stores the maps right in the iPad/iPod/iPhone but a disadvantage is that the maps must be periodically updated (perhaps once every two years). The Internet is not required to use the system but it is required to update the maps.
Some navigation software gets the maps from the Internet and requires an Internet connection to function but an advantage is that the maps are always up-to-date.
The WiFi+3G/4G iPad and the iPhone both have a GPS receiver. The WiFi-only iPad and the iPod do not and these devices require an accessory. -
I am trying to connect an older powerbook G3 (M4753) to the internet via ethernet and a DSL modem. Does the G3 have the ability to do this? I'm having alot of trouble. G3 Dialog box states the DHCP server will populate IP address, etc. It does not. The G3 also insists I enter the DHCP client ID.
Anything useful in the following articles?

How do I make a DVD copy of a file? And does the file have to be converted from mpeg or mp4 or.MOV to a different format before it can be copied and is readable by DVD? Thanks.
Great hearing for you all! I thought I was all alone this past weekend. I did learn a lot this weekend. I really like the InDesign product.(half-the-battle) But to be helped by the prestigious “Sandee Cohen” was an honor indeed.” I ordered the InDesign CC today. Peter, I appreciate all the feedback on Lynda too. They are loaded with lots of good videos. Derek too honed in on one of the most important aspects! Since I have been working with Word for most of the first portion of the book this will be a big help. I looked at the comments big help ! Thanks a ton ALL! Have a wonder day or evening whenever you read this reply.

Does the iMac have an AUDIO IN besides from the built-in mic?
Does the iMac have an AUDIO IN aside from the built-in mic?
Also, are any special cables needed?
Thanks,
JohnHi
You should be able to check by going to about this mac from the Apple menu. Then click the more info button and then the system report button. Next, click on audio tab to the left. If you don't have an entry for built in input then you probably don't have line-in in your mac. As already mentioned though you should be able to defiantly find out with the model and year.
Hope this helps -
does the macbook have a screen cover that makes it so the person next you cannot see what you are doing?
Hello 23435,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your iPhone was knocked out of your hand and now it displays blue and black colors on the display. It does sound like this iPhone may need to be evaluated for service. If you would like more information about this process, please refer to the attached web link below.

Does the MBA have an optical audio out (toslink)?
Does the MBA have an optical audio out (toslink)?
The MacBook Pro and iMacs have digital audio out routed through the headphone jack. A physical converter (costing a few cents) must be used to connect a regular TOSLINK cable.
The MacBook Air apparently does not have this feature.
As to true Thunderbolt 'adaptors' I have yet to see any hit the market. I would suggest not holding your breath while waiting for useful Thunderbolt technology to appear--one day perhaps, but not now. I would love to be proven wrong about this--I could really use the Thunderbolt<->FW800 adapter -

Does the camera have a focus or zoom function
does the camera have a focus function or zoom function?
The camera on iPad was really designed for Facetime conversations. Keep in mind the rear facing camera is 2.3 Megapixel and the front facing camera is .7 magapixel. Neither are even close to real camera standards.

I am having problems viewing my iPhoto from the dock and have to go through my applications to view. What do I have to do to correct this please? Also does the Mac have a defrag function? I have also been advised by the sales person that the Mac does not need an antivirus programme, is this true?
I'm sorry but your post make no sense
first off All Caps is not necessary and makes things hard to read and is consider shouting - it is rude
Second you do not have "an iPhoto" - iPhoto is an application that manages photos - the photos are stored (by default) in the iPhoto library in a SQL lite database and you use the iPhoto program to manage them
I am having problems viewing my iPhoto from the dock and have to go through my applications to view.
can you please explain this in some detail. When you launch iPhoto by clicking on the iPhoto icon in the Dock what happens?
As to your other OS questions this is certainly not hte best place to address them - we are iPhoto users just like yourself here --- basically as I understand it (and I have had had Macs for 30+ years) there is no "defrag and you do not need one - and antivirus is your choice - most people feel it is a waste of money on a Mac but some like to have it

To get the iPod in recovery mode and DFU mode you first have to turn the iPod off.
Just what is the problem you are tying to resolve?
Sometimes you have to let the battery fully drain if you can't turn the iPod off. After charging for at least hour try again.
