How do I get my iPad2 to use an external GPS receiver

I have a Marine Navionics Chart app on my iPad. I have bought an external Blue Tooth GPS receiver. The iPad has recognised the device. I wish to use this to improve the accuracy of my location when at sea. When I have "Location Services" off my iPad does not seem to want to use the external receiver (a GNS 1000 device).
How can I get it to use this device?

Make sure to select your recever in Audio Out options, under Sound in System Preferences. If you cannot see your receiver listed, than it is most likely ana adapter issue.

Thanks for your help

First, please don't shout.
Second, don't post personal information.
Third, restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Can I use an external GPS Receiver via Bluetooth?

Great phone. I used a Galaxy Nexus for over a year until I got this phone, but once I started using the Z10, I never looked back. The "Hub" is a GREAT feature, exactly what I use most of the time. Oddly enough, I was never much of a BB fan until the Z10.
Anyhow, I have bought several apps and accessories for the Z10. I rely on my Z10 a lot.
I still have (from my old Windows Mobile 6 phone days back several years ago) a perfectly working external GPS receiver that has Bluetooth (Holux GPSlim236). Great little receiver.
Since I often use my Z10 for GPS nagigation (I am using Mireo DON"T PANIC) for directions whilst riding my motorcycle all day long, with Bluetooth enabled to my helmet, having the GPS radio on as well as Mobile (aka phone) and Bluetooth does drain the battery faster than if I could avoid using the internal GPS at this time (I still want to use the internal GPS at other times). I do have a data plan, so I could use the internal maps, however, I often ride through places with no data access (back country).
I was able to pair the Bluetooth GPS Receiver to the Z10 (easy enough), however, there is no option in the "Network Connections" settings area to be able to disable the internal GPS radio, or anywhere else, so I can't tell for sure that this is working (that is, not using internal GPS but using external GPS). I suspect it is not using the external GPS Receiver, though, since Bluetooth settings indicate "no services" for the external Bluetooth device.
Is there a way to sometimes use the external Bluetooth Receiver on the Z10 (in order to save battery on long trips)?
It is also not just for battery power savings, but also when I ride there is no air conditioning, so the phone does get hot, and I suspect would be cooler if I used an external GPS receiver via already-enabled-anyways Bluetooth.
Thanks

I am not sure my original message was clear.
I have th Z10, it has GPS software and a built-in GPS radio receiver. I also have an external GPS radio receiver, not a GPS device. It is strictly a radio receiver. I used to use it years ago on my Windows Mobile device - the software with maps was on Windows Mobile, and the GPS receiver hooked up via Bluetooth.
The GPS receiver in the Z10 uses the Z10 battery. I have the Bluetooth on anyhow to connect to my helmet headset. Since Bluetooth is on already, I could save Z10 battery by using the external GPS radio receiver (disable the internal GPS radio receiver), thought the map software would still run on the Z10.
So, the previous response says "does have GPS profile" but also says "external GPS will not work:".
I am not sure the statement was respect to my setup.
What I really need is for the Z10 Bluetooth to see the external GPS receiver, perhaps as a serial device or as a GPS device, howsoever such things work, and for the GPS map software to use the external rather than try to use the internal (the map software should not really care, it should be the OS that virtualises the GPS port).

How do I get my computer to see an external audio receiver

I have a brand new Mac Book pro and have a Marantz SR4001 receiver. Im using a mini port to HDMI adaptor and have the HDMI hooked u to the HDMI input on the receiver. My computer doesn't see the receiver so it isn't allowing me to run music from myItunes to the stereo in the house. Any ideas on how to fix this issue ?

How do I get my iPad2 to connect to TV using AirPlay?

How do I get my iPad2 to connect to TV using AirPlay?

Thanks for your helpful response. I do have an Apple TV device that is hooked up to my TV & router and is working OK. I can link to iTunes on my main computer and stream photos etc OK. The Apple TV device also links to internet OK.
What I can't get to Apple TV device to do is link to my IPad2. I followed the instructions on using & setting up Airplay, and found the Airplay symbol OK,. When I tap it it shows my iPad & Apple TV. When I tap on the TV symbol it doesn't show the dialogue box indicated. I can't seem to get the iPad to stream from Photos, and the iPad doesn't show up on the TV under Computers.
Clearly I am doing something wrong, but what?
Any ideas?

How do I get the IPad2 to find printer?

How do I get the IPad2 to find printer? I've set the printer up with the Bonjour service.

On Windows:
The iPad uses Apple's printing protocol AirPrint. This is not a feature of Bonjour Print Services since it only lets it find printers shared by Macs and share it's own. There is however a quick and easy third party Windows application which can advertise a Windows printer using the AirPrint protocol.
http://jaxov.com/2010/11/download-airprint-installer-for-windows-7-xp-vista/
It does require the windows computer to be on and the since the printer won't be advertised if it isn't. If you have problems just google "AirPrint Windows" and you'll find that page and another tutorial.
On Mac:
Again there is another third party app you can use:
http://fairerplatform.com/2011/04/airprint-activator-mac-os-lion-compatible/
I've tried them both and they work a treat for me.
Hope that's helped! I finally signed up because I actually knew the answer to this question! Yay!

How can I get my ipad2 with os5 to Kodak wireless printer esp9.

How can I get my ipad2 with os5 to Kodak wireless printer esp9.

Airprint won't work with the Kodak printers because Kodak does not support Airprint. You'll need to check in the App store to see if Kodak makes a printing app for the iPad. Otherwise, there are a number of third party printing apps. People have used Printopia, Print n Share, and Print Central with good results.

HT201248 My email address associated with my Apple ID on my iPad has been turned off from the ISp (U.S. army). I have a new gmail account with a new Apple ID. How do I get my iPad to use my gmail account?

Help. My old @us.army.mil email address was terminated by the army. I used that address to register my first apple id account on my iPad. I can't remember my original Apple ID number and if I ask to reset my password, Apple sends the reset link to my old non-working email address. I have a new gmail address and a new Apple ID number associated with that address. How do I get my iPad to use my new gmail address and new apple ID number? Remember, I can't log out of my old account because I can't remember the password. Amd Apple will only reset the password by sending a link to my old, non functioning army email account. ( I hate army webmail for canceling all retired military email accounts). John Marc

How can we get ADFSecurity work when used in OC4J, OID and OAM?

I am getting error in http server log "mod_oc4j: Response status=499 and reason=Oracle SSO, but failed to get mod_osso global context."
But I am not using Oracle SSO and my client doesn't want to use it either, I am using OAM SSO(CoreIDSSO) in my configuration. Please read the details below.
I am using ADFSecurity in an app that is protected by OAM. To migrate ADFSecurity permissions from
system-jazn-data.xml to OID, I used JAZNMigrationTool to populate OID with Grantees and Permissions. OAM gives login page, and authentication works fine.
But ADFSecurity is not working. ADFComponent Delete button is enabled even for roles that dont have permissions for the iterator delete.
- The app works fine when I use without OAM. ADF Security permissions work fine.
- The app works fine when used with OAM, but with ADFSecurity disabled (enforce=false).
- When I enforce ADFSecurity alongwith OAM, ADFSecurity is not working.
In the doc "Oracle Containers for J2EE Security Guide b28957", there is a mention of use of CoreIDPrincipal for permissions. Our OID Permissions entries show
LDAPRealmRole for attribute orcljaznprincipal. I am not sure if this could be the reason.
We have configured AccessServerSDK for the SOA instance and have policy for the urls in the policy manager. We have entries in orion-application.xml, orion-web.xml and system-jazn-data.xml as per the documentations.
How can we get ADFSecurity work when used with OID and OAM?

Have you been able to successfully integrate OAS with OAM & OID? We have similar requriement and so far we have not been able to get it working.
We have application specific roles which we map to OID roles using orion-application.xml.
Any pointers to achieve this would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Dipal

Than how can i get java class by using it's class file?

Hi
After compilation of a java program, it creates a class file.
After getting class file suppose class file has been deleted.
Than how can i get java class by using it's class file?
Thanks in advance.

get a decompiler and run your class file through it--I'll assume you want the source code back and that you are not trying to recover a missing class file by attempting to use the class file that is missing--if it's missing, then I've not a clue on how to get it back by using what is already missing.
BTW: many of your compilers have source control--if it does, just restore your missing file.

How can i get a file header using this method cl_gui_frontend_services= gui

Hi Experts,
How can i get a file header using this method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download
Thanks
Basu

Hi,
You can use the FM - GUI_DOWNLOAD to specify the headers. It can be done in the following manner -
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_head, "Structure for header
             h(10) TYPE c,
             END OF ty_head.
DATA: it_head TYPE TABLE OF ty_head WITH HEADER LINE.
"Adding header details
it_head-h = 'Field1'.
APPEND it_head.
it_head-h = 'Field2'.
APPEND it_head.
it_head-h = 'Field3'.
APPEND it_head.
it_head-h = 'Field4'.
APPEND it_head.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
    filename                        = p_file
   filetype                        = 'ASC'
   write_field_separator           = 'X'
   header                          = '00' "<= note this
TABLES
    data_tab                        = it_tab
   fieldnames                      = it_head[] "<= Pass your header table here
EXCEPTIONS
   OTHERS                          = 1.
Hope this helps.

How do I get a computer to use one of my available licenses instead of the temporary license that I'm being told will expire tomorrow?

My console says "Payment needed" on one of my computers, and that the computer is currently using a temporary license, which is set to expire tomorrow. However, the line above that says the I have 2 device licenses available for activation. How do I get that computer to use one of my available licenses instead of the temporary license that will expire tomorrow?
Thanks,

No, what you're seeing is the actual webpage
For example, the BBC iplayer (www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer). Open this site in safari, add an icon for it to your home screen, then when you use this icon to open the iplayer it opens as if it is an app, it doesn't have the address bar or back and forward buttons etc.
Actually, it does. Or should do, ay least. It does for me
Also when you double click the home button the iplayer icon shows up with the rest of the apps (usually you just get safari there) and if you open safari and look at the pages you have open it doesn't show there. It really does look as though it is an app, although what I'm guessing is happening is that it is open in a new instance of safari.
That's correct
My question is, does anyone know how to get a site to do this? I'm assuming there are some meta tags in the HTML but I can't find any references to this being possible let alone how to do it.
The site doesn't do it. Safari does it. All you have on your Home screen is the iPad equivalent of a webloc, a small text snippet containing the URL for whatever page you saved.
