Find my iPad with 3G but not signed up for service
Hi,
Has anyone been able to get the "Find my iPad" feature from MobileMe to work on a 3G iPad that isn't signed up for 3G service? I supposed I should just enable my 3G, but I wasn't going to bother until I needed to use my iPad outside of WiFi areas.
I have done everything that is supposed to enable find my iPad (push notifications, enable find my ipad, add a passcode, etc.), but MobileMe just says my iPad is offline. It finds my iTouch just fine with all of the same settings.
Yes, it will even work with 3G off but wifi on. It seems to use a connection (either way) and GPS to located the iPad. I tried it before activing an AT&T account and with cellular data off.

If I buy a ipad mini with cellular, and not sign up for cellular service, can I use the onboard GPS, or does it depend on the cell signal since it is aGPS?
Right. But as I understand it, the aGPS is a function that speeds location using cell signals, but isn't necessary for the GPS signal. I can buy a plugin device that is a real GPS that I can use with my iPad mini. However, I would need an app for maps. I was wondering if anyone had used one of these.

I have the Verizon Wireless USB760 Modem.
The past few days I have received this message:
It appears that you are not currenntly signed up for service. If you are a prepaid mobile broadband customer your seesion may have expired.
Then it asks if I want to sign up and when I say np, it goes away. Lord knows, it continues to charge me for my usage whether it thinks I am a customer or not.
It's just aggratating as I have to sign into myVersion to check my usage.
Does anyone know why I am getting this?
Thanks,
CarolynWhat OS do you have?
have you tried to delete the modem drivers and software etc....then re-install everything?
maybe a virus is messing with your system..
sometimes unplug the modem and plug it back in fix's some problems(might have to do this multiple times)
hopefully a verizon tech will reply to resolve your problem. -
iPhoto frustrating error..The volume for "Df23.JPG" cannot be found. It prompts for all photos with this issue rather than offering an option to ignore. I can find the images in spotlight but not in Find Photo. Does anyone have a solution?
Unless you have the source files that were on the TC or Windows machine you will have to start over with a new library as follows:
Start over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. Drag the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
Click to view full size
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects. Your original library will remain intact for further attempts at fixes is so desired.

My trackpad is responding the click on finder, i can use multitouch but not leftclick/1 click/touch. Aswell when i go to the findertab at the bottom with the mouse, app icons Does Not expand. I had no problems with it before, but I'm very confused.
Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
Thanks for the advice, Bee

When I make a video with the camera ipad mini seen but not heard I can do ?
when I make a video with the camera ipad mini seen but not heard I can do ?
Yeah, of course you can. All you do is, open PhotoBooth, record your video and then, once you have stopped the video recording just drag the movie out of the bottom of PhotoBooth onto the desktop. It is in .mov format so you can then add it to iMovie for further editing or just upload it to youTube as it is.
Easy as pie! -

Photos uploaded through icloud control panel are only synced with iphone but not with ipad
Photos which are uploaded through icloud control panel are only synced with iPhone but not with iPad. Photos taken with iPhone or iPad are synced with all devices. So, why I do not get the uploaded photos from my pc to iPad? I alredy disabled photo stream on all devices - same failure
If only one device is not getting updated data, you need to troubleshoot that device and not photostream itself.
Verify that ipad is connected to wifi, charged over 20 percent, camera app is closed and take a photo of the screen (or anything else, but then close that camera app).
Open photostream folder on that ipad and see if picture shows up. If you network is good, should not take long.
Don't forget that while your phone can use wifi and cellular (even it suppose to use wifi for photostream, cellular networks got much better since original photostream was implemented) - you ipad is probably wifi only.
If picture shows up - you ipad and photostream have no problems and you can go to other devices one by one. -

I am travelling for a year. I have my iPod touch 4g with me, but not my MacBook. Is there a way I can update to IOS 5 without losing my music,apps, photos..
Yes. get a computer with iTune 10.5 and:
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other stuff using a third-party program like one of those discussed here. Most are good for music. It is harder to find one for other stuff like synced photos.
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up
- Restore the iPod from backup and sync as neccessary. -

I have lost my iPad and would like to block it from being reregistered. It is a wifi only and does not have a sim card. I did not sign up for any tracking software either. Can apple block the serial number?
No.
Apple can do nothing.
You cannot block it from being "registered".
If you did not set up find my ipad before it was lost, then there is nothing you can do but change your passwords. -
Move graphics with text--but not inline--in PM...??
Hello, is there a way in PageMaker to move graphics with text but not inline? I ask because right now I see two options for graphics:
--inline, so you cannot place the graphic exactly where you want AND the text only flows way above or below--but not next to--the graphic
or
--independent so you can place the graphic exactly where you want and the text DOES flow right next to the graphic, but then the graphic doesn't move with the text
I'd like to be able to place graphics exactly where I want AND have them move with the text, like the "Move object with text" option in Word.
thank you!
Lwell it has been a while since i used PageMaker so i didn't realize it was "dead."
though i'm not surprised and am kind of glad. i was hired into a new job recently
to work on a department newsletter, and i'm trying to find a good authoring program
within our budget. right now the newsletter is in Word but we've had a lot of problems
with Word so i'm seeking an alternate solution. i'd like Frame but again there isn't
enough money in the budget. i need a good option that is $500 or less...i'm trying Publisher
now too but not enough functionality...
