How can I download 500MB to 50 devices in 5 minutes- WiFi
Hello,
The off the shelf wifi routers are not able to solve my problem. I need to download a 500 MB video file to 40-50 iPad2 within 5-10 minutes. The network is not the issue, it is the WiFi router/APo
I have setup a internal test network to try. I have tried with several different WiFi Router/AP's (off the shelf) I have used a D-Link AC Router, an Apple Airport Extreme, and a Linksys WiFi Router (N series)
I have the bandwidth from the routers, I know that an iPad2 has a max download speed of 38 mbps.....and I can download to one iPad in about 3 minutes. The issue is when I have multiple iPads downloading at the same time...the chipset in these off the shelf products cannot handle it, the download times go up exponentially.....
In my eyes, the device should be able to download to 20 iPads all at the same time and all done is 3 minutes. THere must be a device out there that can handle that....I am hoping there is a CIsco AP that has that capability
Anyone help here?
OK, that makes sense. THe big issue is the multiple connections and the exponential drop in download speed. So, my testing showed max download speed with iPad2 is 38 mbps or about 4.75 MBps. So, that is about 105 seconds for a 500 MB file or roughly a minute and 45 sec. Pretty fast. You would think if the baknd width was there that you could them download at that same speed with multiple iPads until you hit the bandwidth limit.
So, if the bandwidth limit is 37 MBps...I should be able to have almost 8 iPads downloading at 4.75 MB oer sec and be done in in about 1:45. Then I could do do 16 in under 4 minutes. With this theory I can do about 35 in under 10 minutes...
That would probably solve my porblem if that is the case. So, I was checking out the Aironet 2602i. Do you think that will hit that 37MBps I am looking for?
Thanks

I am backing up all my pictures (from a long trip to Italy) to the iCloud from iPhone......I want to download the onto my iPad before I leave space on my iPhone.
How do I download them from the cloud???
You have to talk to me like If I am a second grader please. Lol!!!!Hi Susu55,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I would suggest importing your pictures to your computer, and then sync your iPad to the computer.

How can I download the apple mobile device usb driver?
Mine is missing. I have followed the steps here : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
The device driver is missing. I tried removing all things apple from my computer and reinstalling itunes to no avail. Neither my computer nor itunes recognize either my iphone 4s or my ipad. It isn't my usb ports as I have two and they are working with other devices. It isn't the cables as my iphone and ipad have two different cables. I can't seem to find info that addresses the driver specifically as this seems to be the problem. I also tried another suggestion where I made sure the usb ports weren't in power saver mode. Any suggestions? I really appreciate your help.Have you done:

or

How can I download the Apple Mobile Device Driver?
I'm not sure how it happened but my laptop stopped recognizing my iPhone (5S) at all, including as a camera. I tried uninstalling all apple products and reinstalling iTunes, as well as making sure my USB drivers worked, but the driver still isn't there. Help??
Well firstly you want to make sure you uninstalled itunes completely and correctly.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
Following this article is important when uninstalling itunes make sure you read the part near the bottom that talks about the order in which you must uninstall the components.
If you still have trouble there is a wonderful tool from microsoft called iFixit ( A simple google search for "iFixit" should yield a webpage - http://support.microsoft.com/mats/program_install_and_uninstall/en-us
use the uninstaller to completely remove any troublesome components and make sure after you uninstall and after you reinstall that you restart your computer. -
When I connect the RCA Small Wonder to my MacBook Pro, the device is recognized in finder as EZ201. I tried to copy the video files in the folder but within a minute or two, I receive a message that the disk was ejected improperly, even though the device is still connected. I was able to download the first few videos before it stopped working and was able to play them using Perian. However, when I tried to connect the device again, it froze my system and I had to force a shut down by turning the computer off. Why is the device initially recongized but then shows as improperly ejected when it is still connected? How can I download the videos if the MacBook Pro won't allow the device to stay connected?
A picture of a screen that suggests my new MBP Retina never connects to the "Macbook Pro backup ("StefanTimeCapsule")
This is the one that has the files for the backups procured by the Time Machine program. But it can't "connect"-- You 'll see int he sideways pic (sorry!) that the options STILL says "connecting"
Do i have to make these Time Machines more open to connection? -

how can i download photos from mac to other hard wear device
Depends on the actual device.
If it's an iOS device you can sync via iTunes.
Other devices: Export from iPhoto to the FInder and send them from there.

I have an older ipod classic 80gb that I've just reset and associated with my iTunes account. It's recognized and up to date but when I sync I can't download any of my music. How can I download my iTunes library to this device?
Hello Analogue guy living in wireless world,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to sync your music to your iPod.
I recommend trying to sync your music again using iTunes. When you have your iPhone connected to iTunes, I recommend checking the Music tab to verify that Sync Music is checked. From here, you will be able to select to sync your "Entire music library" or "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres:"
I recommend reviewing the full article here:

As of today, iOS 7 is available for Apple devices. I went to settings, then to general, and to software updates, but it says at iOS 6.1.3 my iPad 2 is up to date. How can I download https iOS 7?
Well, now is probably not a good time to try it. The servers are overloaded, and if you look at most of the posts on this site right now, people are getting hung up at various points of their download and activation.
You need to hook your device up to the computer you sync with and download it via iTunes, or keep checking your device until you see IOS 7 is available.
But my advice would be to wait - otherwise you are just going to be frustrated, and unable to use your device....
Cheers,

how can i download old settings with firefox sync ? i formatted my computer thinking that the data will be restore on login , but it's only letting my sync firefox with mobile device , can someonr please help my ?
'''Did you backup whatever bookmarks you did have on the computer ? '''
Remember any restoring of bookmarks overwrites whatever he current set is, and you may not want to loose them.
Even if up until now you have not made any backups of Desktop bookmarks Firefox will have backed up some of them into sets of daily bookmark backups. Once you have backed up your current set you could look at what it has by restoring those bookmarks, you may find one of those sets is fairly complete.
By the way if you look at the profile files and folders that you should now have on the desktop you should see it contains a bookmarks backup folder, the size of the files within should indicate whether they contain anything.
You need to go into the bookmarks library and try the restore option. Backup each set that you look at if it has anything of use in it, before trying the next set. With look one of those will be a fairly complete set of bookmarks.
* USE '''Show All Bookmarks -> Import and Backup -> Restore '''
** see [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer#w_restoring-from-backups]]_restoring-from-backups
I do not use Firefox on mobiles, but before you try anything further you do need to backup the desktop bookmarks and learn what existing backups you have. Unless you master that you are in continual danger of overwriting and loosing bookmarks.
Presumably you have already found this listing of help articles for mobiles

Title says it all...
I downloaded a TV show directly to my IPAD, how can I download that TV show to other devices on the same account without paying twice?Whether you can re-download them for free depends upon what country that you are in - tv shows can't be re-downloaded in all countries. If they show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes app on your other devices, or the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes then you can re-download them. Otherwise you can copy them from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and then sync them to your other devices.

I've updated to the most recent version of iTunes and I can no longer see any of my old music on my mac. All the music is still available on my ipad. How can i download the music on my mac?
First, are you positive it is really not there? Have you looked in your iTunes folder in your Music folder, and in the media folders there? Do you see your media files?
If your media are gone it is a lot easier to restore from a proper computer backup. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
