EOS Utility for the iPad?
I was wondering if there will ever be an iPad version of the EOS utility? I'd rather use my iPad than a laptop to setup a shot with.
If you use one of the more recent generation of wireless file transmitters on your camera then it is possible to "effectively" use EOS Utility on the iPad or any other device with a web browser.
WFT units, usually the Mk II transmitters, support HTTP mode, configure this then browse to the camera's ip address then you can choose remote control, there's a simple version and an advanced version.
I wrote about this on my site in January.

Of course this means you need to get a WFT for your camera that supports the HTTP feature. So if you have the EOS 5D Mark II / III, EOS 7D or EOS 1D Mark III / EOS-1Ds Mark III, EOS-1D Mark IV or EOS-1D X then you are set...

There is an IOS app but from Nick or On One software but the last time I looked it was $24.95. Plus you need to connect the camera to a WiFi enabled computer. So it is like shooting tethered with the ability to control your camera remotely. Being that I am a street and landscape photog I never saw the value.

Will the EOS utility for the Rebel SL1 work with the 40D?
We first bought the Rebel EOS 300D many years ago and then upgraded to a 40D at my wifes shagrine (heavier) and have now bought my wife a new Rebel SL1. I would like to be able to download all three camers on my computer Win7 and her's WinXP. I'd like to know if the new discs that came with the SL1 has an EOS Utility application that will handle all three or at least the 40D and SL1.
Thanks much,
BobHi, RobTrek6500!
The version of EOS Utility on the CD that came with your Canon EOS Rebel SL1 will allow you to download photos from both the Rebel SL1 and the EOS 40D, on both Windows 7 and Windows XP.
Unfortunately, the "Original" EOS Digital Rebel, known internationally as the EOS 300D, is no longer supported by current versions of EOS Utility, and going to an earlier version will cut out support for the later-model cameras. EOS Utility's setup does not support having two separate versions on the same computer, so we recommend sticking with the newest version as it will be the most convenient for you.
The best workaround for this is to use a memory card reader for the original EOS Rebel. Many desktop computers have CF card slots already built in, and if you don't already have a CF card slot, a CF card reader can be purchased for a low price at almost any electronics store. This turns your CF card into the equivalent of a flash drive, and image files can be dragged and dropped onto your computer with ease. Meanwhile, you can continue to use the current version of EOS Utility to download images from the Rebel SL1 and the EOS 40D.
We hope this helps! -
The printer had great directions to set up a wifi connection, but none for the iPad. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I am using Numbers app for the ipad and it has been working absolutely fine but now, when I want to email a spreadsheet as a PDF via the 'share and print' option, the file now doesn't appear as an attachment to the recipient. Any ideas please?
Hi mafiose15,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
You can find the instructions in this article:

Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad? I want to bring RAW files from my camera through the IPad and out to an external hard drive. One of my cameras has an SD card but the other one doesn't have a card that would fit in any of the camera devices I've seen on line. Realted to this, I bought the IPad camera accessory. Can I put the SD card in the device and also hook the external hard drive to the USB port of the accessory and download from the camera to the hard drive? Can I put Lightroom or the Nikon photo editing software on the IPad? Right now I carry a PC laptop and external hard drives with me on wildernes trips. Internet and WiFi are not available. Because I shoot so many photos and they're in RAW I need to download from the camera to the external drive because I run out of memory on the PC (and it has much more memory than the IPad). I have Nikon NX software and lightroom on my PC. I'd love to be able to reduce the weight I carry by using the IPad to edit my photos each night while on trips. Is this possible and how would I do it? I'd appreciate any guidance.
No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom. -
Hi everybody
Just have bought an ipad2 and i would like to manage several IDs on my computer (i.e keep my iPhone ID and create another one for the ipad to manage apps for my iPhone (4) and the apps for the iPad).
How can I resetup the iPad to create that new ID on itunes?
Thanks for your help
JpIf you have separate iTunes accounts for the two devices then you'll need to buy 2 copies of any app that you want on both device - you can't copy or move apps from one account to another (they are tied to the account that bought/downloaded them). If you want to reset the iPad then logout of the account on it (Settings > Store and tap the id on the right-hand side) and then Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings will reset it back to factory defaults.
You may want to consider one of three options mentioned on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495 -
I have ad Apple ID on my iPad , when I use the apple on my iPhone for the first time, I put in my Apple ID for the iPad, didn't work. Need to create a new one. Why? How can I just use my iPad ID on my iPhone?
Hi kamfong,
Went to Settings where?
If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
1. Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
2. Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
Cheers,

Is there an app for the ipad that will allow you to access your mac.
Is there an app for the ipad that will allow you to access your mac via wifi or cell network.
Yep, two of the most popular apps are "LogMeIn Ignition" and "iTeleport." Check them out, they'll both set you back by about 30$ though.

I have an iPad 2 that I want to use with video mirroring to give lectures with. I bought a VGA Adapter for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod as I want to be able to connect with any TV, monitor or projector for lectures, not just an HD device.. After plugging in my iPad to the VGA adapter and then to the video device, it appears that there is no connection with the iPad. Anybody have any thoughts?
Thanks, SteveThis article outlines how to use the Apple AV adapter or VGA Adapter to connect your iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPad, or iPod touch (4th generation) to an external TV, projector, or display. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4108

I need to reprogram the delete and enter key to the left side of a external keyboard for the ipad mini. I don't need the caps/lock or ctrl key. Due to a brain injury my daughter can only use her left hand to type. She also uses a text to speech app to verbalize all of her needs since her speech isn't intelligible any longer either. And her vision was significantly affected also, so the keyboard has to be mounted about 6 inches from her face. So to reach across the keyboard with her left hand to the right side delete and enter button is physically difficult and causes typing errors, which cause people to not understand what shes trying to say.
The best keyboard so far is the Zagg folio mini. I just had to make stickers to enlarge the letters on the key buttons.
Does anyone know how I can reprogram these two keys? Or where I can buy a wireless mini keyboard for Ipad made for lefthanders with these two functions on the left side. I have searched for days and days. It's sooooo important to me that she be able to contribute her voice again. Imagine if you got in a car accident and couldn't speak clearly any longer, but understood everything still. Thanks for any help and suggestions you all take the time to share with me. I really appreciate the kindness of strangers to help me help my daughter.

i forgot my passcode for the ipad and i can't connect to iTunes because it keeps giving me error message that i have to unlcok the ipad first... any advice on how to restore the ipad or unlock it?
You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.

So, I'm making a stop motion for youtube, and the movement is way to fast for me to try and talk for it, so, I need to be able to add subtitles down at the bottom of the screen. Can I do this on iMovie for the iPad?
First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. You can find it by googling MPEG Streamclip Squared 5.
Open MPEG Streamclip.
In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
Also, for how to add a pointer, try Karsten Schluter's website for a good post on how to do this.
