Help with Ipad /USB

Hi we off camping in a few days to the Kimberleys and the 12v TV plays the movies saved on my USB expansion drive but in the tiniest size, and a bit hard to watch something the size of say a phone, so I am wondering if anyone can advise me if there is such a thing to purchase so I can some how buy a cable that will allow me to plug the expansion drive -USB to an adaptor that will connect to the ipad so we can watch movies? The movies have not been downloaded via Apple, will this make a difference? Any info would be great, and in simple language please. Thanks for your help

In the past I've managed to copy an MP4 film via an SD card with the camera connction kit to the iPad's Photos app and been able to play it (it doesn't work with iTunes purchased videos) - that requires you to copy the film to the iPad from the SD card. Also the kit only recognises content that is in a particular format - the card has to have a DCIM directory off its root, with the photos/videos underneath it with filenames exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus file extension.
There are also a number of wifi-enabled drives available which allow you to stream content to the iPad, so you don't need to store the films on the iPad e.g. GoFlex Satellite.

    cont contact apple server error please help with ipad touch 4. im just fed up with apple please help me because why is it only apple with these kind of problems?

    If you mean updae server
    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    Otherwise what server are you talking about

  • Help with iPad interactivity in Indesign

    Hi,
    I am creating an iPad app and need some help with the interactivity. I have 4 buttons on my page and each one, when pressed, shows a new box of information which I have achieved using the object states. I have also created a menu in the form of a scrollable frame which scrolls in from the left of my page. This is however, where I have a problem - because the frame that I drew for the scrollable frame to be placed into covers two of my four buttons, these two buttons don't appear to be working. Does anyone know how I can resolve this or any way to work around this problem?
    Many thanks,
    Steph

    Redesign the page and consider using an MSO for the menu instead of a
    scrollable frame.

  • TS3274 Help with IPad

    I need help with my iPad. I am on a page that I added to home screen (OpenAppMkt) and I needed to get out but the home button won't work, or even the power button. Holding the home button for 10 secs didn't work either, and yet I can invert colors.

    RESET DEVICE
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).

  • Can you help with wireless usb printing?

    I have a D-Link router ([DI-824VUP) that works fine as far as geting online and printing to an ethernet printer,(HP1300n) wirelessly. I recently bought this router because it has a usb printer port, yet I can not get it to see the usb printer (Canon S830D). D-Link was no help, as they don't support Apple wireless printing, even though they do support wired printing via their router. QUESTION-any idea how to get powerbook to see the printer when connected to the router? Printer setup utility does not see it, only the HP. Thanks-bobbabe

    Because this forum software is so absolutely USELESS now, you don't get to see the whole of the question in this view. In the other (non-list) view it says:
    "can you help with a technical problem with the stereo imagery option ? it won't take out lead vocal in a stereo mp3"
    And the answer is that if you can't isolate the vocal in the stereo field, or it is one of these odd ones where it's used inverted polarity in different parts of the stereo signal for the same vocal, then you won't be able to. But without a sample, it's impossible to tell. If you can post a link to one, that might help. It has to be external to this site though - Adobe in their infinite wisdom don't allow the posting of audio files on their audio U2U forum. Helpful, that, isn't it?

  • Help with Ipad (3rd gen) wifi

    I have a problem with my Ipad where I'm unable to scroll across a video. For instance if im playing a video on youtube or iplayer, I'm unable to forward the video. I have restored the ipad through Itunes but has not resolved the issue. Any ideas why this is happening?

    For the issue with Messages, try this. Settings>Messages>Show Subject Field>Off. Then try typing and sending a message.
    Did you restore as new? You didn't say if you did or not? I don't think this is going to help with the video scrubbing but it doesn't hurt anything. Reboot your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Help with iPad Identifying Phone Numbers in iMessage Send & Receive Settings / iMessage Syncing Help - iOS 6 - iPhone - iPad

    With iOS6, iPhone and iPad users will see that their Send & Receive iMessage settings have updated across their devices to be made available at both phone numbers and email addresses. You may have also seen alerts on one or more of your devices advising that another device is now using the same Apple ID/phone number for iMessage.
    Being able to be reached on iMessage on both Apple ID and phone numbers across devices means that iMessage can keep the same thread and sync across devices.
    Due to having 2 iPhones on different phone numbers running along side my iPad at one time, (whilst I was waiting for my phone number to be moved to a new provider), my iMessage settings on my iPad lost my phone number completely. I thought I would document the steps to recover this for anyone in the same boat.
    1. Check that you are signed in with the same iCloud Account on both iPad and iPhone.
    2. Turn off iMessage on your iPad from Settings > Messages.
    3. On your iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. You should see your phone number and your iCloud email address in the 'Your can be reached by iMessage at:' list. Make sure both are ticked.
    4. At this point, I synced my iPhone with iTunes, then synced my iPad with iTunes.
    5. On your iPad, turn iMessage back on - your phone number should now show in the 'You can be reached by iMessage at:' list. Tick the phone number. You should receive an alert on your iPhone.
    This should resolve the issue.
    With the above set up and with the iOS 6 updates, iMessage should now sync fine across devices however I have still found the most successful way to run iMessage is to always start new conversations from your Apple ID and to start new threads by addressing the first message to an Apple ID from an Apple ID.
    To do this, go to Settings > iMessage > Send & Receive and tick your Apple ID in the 'Start new conversations from:' list, then start a new iMessage thread to the recipients Apple ID. This way, the thread will sync across iPad and iPhone. Note that a thread set up this way will not fall back on SMS, so you get a clean iMessage thread. This method also worked/works on iOS 5, as long as you send the first message of a new thread from an iPad (which can only send via Apple ID) to an Apple ID.
    Hopefully this helped someone!

    ipad has no phone number, you use a same email address for both devices. and set it in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive

  • Can anyone help with iPad problem- Camera roll?

    When I take a photo on my iphone, the photo goes into my photo stream and appears on my shared mac camera roll but does not appear on my ipad camera roll. However the photo does appear when you click from albums to photos. Not sure what has happened it use to go into camera roll all other devises ie iphone, ipad and mac laptop. I have gone into setting and all is ticked correclty. Can someone help please.

    In many ways, I don't think IOS 7 improved the experience with Photo app but it is what it is.  I shoot both with my Iphone and with a camera using an SD card and upload with the CC to the Ipad, so i have two different issues with Camera roll. 
    By experimentation I have found that a jpeg file MUST be in Camera Roll on the Ipad to be considered 'saved' and backed up in Icloud.  Photostream will bring your jpeg photo from the Iphone to the Ipad but it is NOT YET in your camera roll.  To have that done, by simply putting it in an album it is placed in Camera Roll.  That's the simple thing to do.  If you process it in a 3rd party app like Snapseed it will save back to your Camera Roll, so doing either of these two things places that file in Camera Roll, but no where do you get this information unfortunately. 
    For those using an SD card to import a RAW file, you need to process in a third party app, save to photo app--generally the default is as jpeg, and it will appear in the Camera Roll.   I don't shoot with my camera in jpegs so can't describe that but I'm rather assuming that if you select the file, save to an album, that it will appear in the Camera Roll.  A word to the wise--if you are importing raw files to the Ipad and processing them you will end up with two photos in the "photos", the raw and the jpeg.  To cut down on storage, delete the raw which is the one to the right of the processed jpeg file.  I do wish Photoapp would give us some EXIF data on shots but if it isn't apparent which is which, I've determined (by using apps that show the EXIF)  the processed jpeg that you ordinarily wish to keep on the Ipad is always to the left of the raw, or 'first' in the photo mode
    Another way to move from iphone to Ipad, especially video (which doesn't Photostream), is to use Air Drop and the file will automatically go into Camera Roll.
    Hope this helps.  I've had to explain this to my husband also and show him by demoing so I've been down this path before LOL.

  • Need help with a USB 760 by Novatel

    I have an Asus eee pc running windows 7.  I am trying to use the usb 760. I download vz access manager and try to set up modem, its says "no device detected"
    I have removed, re booted, unplugged, been to IT, been to verizon store, etc.  Nothing works. I have read tons of problems but no solutions. HELP

        Rdaleo5, thanks for posting. I can understand your need to be connected. The issue that you are facing sounds like the problem is with the device and not the computer. Can you plug in the usb 760 into another computer, is it recognizable? Can you plug an mp3 player or camera into your usb port on the computer? Does it recoginize? Please give more details. I would love to help.
