How do I assign a drive letter to the Ipad in Windows 8

Hi,
I deleted an important video file and some photos from my ipad.
Last few days I have spent ages trying to find a utility that will recover the files, but most of the 'ipad specific' software is a crock.
I thought if I could assign a drive letter to the Ipad when I connect it to me Windows 8 PC I could run any number of much more trsutworty and stable applications to try and recover the info. However, I have googled and googled and can't find a way to assign a drive letter to the Ipad.
Can anyone advise if this is possible?
thanks

You cannot. The iPad is not considered a removable storage device and will not operate as such normally.
There are software programs out there that will allow you to directly access the unit's internal memory. Google iFunBox. I don't know if it will give you low enough level file access to do what you want though and it certainly won't give you the ability to undelete files either. Whatever file access that's done is through iFunBox...you can't access the device (indirectly) through Windows Explorer (or Mac) even while running iFunBox.

How do I assign a user ID to the purchasing group so it shows up on table..

How do I assign a user ID to the purchasing group so it shows up on table T024? I'm trying to create a STO but am recieving the following error
Configuration of User ID is not set up in purchasing group T024 table
    Message no. 00398
Diagnosis
    Placeholder for batch input error text, this message is not output.
    Configuration of User ID is not set up in   purchasing group T024 table
Thanks in advance

Table T024 has no field for a user-Id in standard SAP
you can only tie a user to a purchsing group via authorization with user roles.
The message 00398 is a generic message that can be used for everything.
I guess this message is triggered in a userexit. Designed by a collegue of you.

How do you make "Acrobat X Pro" open the "combine pdf" window in the foreground?

How do you make "Acrobat X Pro" open the "combine pdf" window in the foreground?
I am using a "Windows 7" computer at work with "Acrobat X Pro" and I'm constantly combining
pdf's and tiff's in Acrobat.
It would be nice if when I select 30 or 40 files to combine, the
"Combine Supported Files in Acrobat" window would open in the
foreground, not behind the 10 or so windows already open.
I have been researching this for some time now with no solution.
If the answer is that "IT CAN'T BE DONE", then that's fine. At least
I will have an answer and can stop searching. If (as I suspect) it can
be done, then kindly supply me with "step by step" instructions.
Michael Jones

Something that works (provides Acrobat the application precedence in the OS that is requisite for this) --
Minimize the 10 or so application windows before engaging use of Acrobat's "combine".
That'll let the Acrobat dialog windows display front and center.
Be well...

I just bought splashtop, you have to have your home computer online,and download the pc version. I have used it ot watch movies and to "go to work" on my ipad. It controls the desktop through the ipad. Whiteboard by splashtop does that and more and is on sale. The education director at the hospital I work at is using that one.
Splashtop 4.99 remote desktop(or laptop) control. Whiteboard 9.99 is remote control and more 9.99

I own a ipad mini and a iPod touch both configured on the same id
How do I ensure that my data on the ipad mail,notes,pics etc is not visible/accessible on the iPod touch when the iPod is connected to a wi fi connection

Mail: do not have the same account loaded onto the two devices.
Photos: go into Settings->Photos & Camera->and turn off photo stream.
everything else, sign out of the Apple ID on the device you dont want to be visible.
good luck

How do I save and find files on the ipad?

How do I save and find files on the iPad?

Files/documents need to be stored/associated within an app on the iPad, unlike 'normal' computers there is no file system which allows you to save files with no means of being able to read/use them. So if you want to store a file on the iPad you first need an app on the iPad that supports that file type.
How you then get the file onto the iPad and into the app will depend on what the app is and what transfer method(s) it supports. e.g. some apps use the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, some apps support the transfer of files via your wifi network, the iBooks app uses the Books section of your iTunes (and the device's Books tab) to sync content, and other transfer methods include email attachments, Dropbox etc. The file is then found by going into your chosen app and opening/using the file.

How do I add an iMovie project to the iPad?

How do I add an iMovie project to the iPad? I have added the project to the pane in iTunes but the iPad has no way to import. I am using iOS 8.0.2. Also, when I open iMovie in the iPad, I see one project and video available but it is not shown in iTunes. What the heck is going on?
Thanks.

First thing I'd try is dropping the Quality level down to Medium or maybe half-way between High and Medium.

My iPad has deleted 700 photos off the photo stream on that device. The pictures are still on my Mac iPhoto in the photo stream. How do I get them to reappear on the iPad?

My iPad has deleted 700 photos off the photo stream on that device. The pictures are still on my Mac iPhoto in the photo stream. How do I get them to reappear on the iPad?

When did this deletion happen? Which version of iOS 8 do you have on your iPad? Depending on your settings you may not see My Photo Stream on the iPad any longer. With iOS 8 "My Photo Stream" will only show on the iPad, if you did not enable iCloud Photo Library (Beta).
