How does iMessage work on the iTouch abroad?

I'm traveling to Taiwan this summer and I'm planning to take my iTouch to keep in contact with my friends. As long as I had a wifi connection, would the iTouch be able to send messages to my friends without incurring huge costs? What things do I need to keep in mind when doing this?

Their iMessage email address
That they have to be connected to WIFI too
Have fun

How does iMessage work on ipad

I can understand how it works on the iPhone but what about the iPad? How do people send messages to me as there is no number connected with the iPad is there?

It will work on you apple I'd, not your phone number. Similar to the way RIM do it on a blackberry, with a unique pin, not number.

How does it work with the iphone

i bought a time capsule but i don't know how to use it with the iphone, ipod, or ipad. can you please tell me the uses for those devices and how to use them?

TC has no direct relevance to any of the iOS devices..
They backup to iTunes on the computer, which is then backed up by Time Machine to the Time Capsule.
You can access files if you load an app like file browser.. but TC is not a media server .. it is a dumb hard disk and other than saving files there is nothing useful to do with the TC.

How does iMessage work outside of the United States

I'm going to be in Canada and I have an iphone 4 through verizon with unlimited data and texting. Will i be able to use iMessage in Canada without being charged any fee for being out of the US? If so what do i need to do?

If you will not have Wi-Fi where you are staying, then you would have to set up international roaming with Verizon, and yes, it will cost more.

I need help getting my Documents synched with my computer so I can save them... how does this work on the CENTRO?

I've tried everything and the versamail on my palm doesn't work because of a glich so I have no way of getting my documents off my palm. It's really irking me that I can write on the go, but can't acess my stuff even when i'm at home.
can someone help me figure this out?
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

Documents to Go synchronizes with the Documents to Go Desktop application, which is free bonus software you must download and install on your computer to establish the sync conduit. I don't have a Centro so I don't know exactly where on Palm you download it from, details should be on install CD or in Getting Started.

How does this work?

This is not a complaint, but a confused sigh of admiration. I've got an email account at the university where I teach. When I got my iBook, it took me a while, and a few conversations with IT at the school, to get this account working in the Mail application. (Since I have a Verizon DSL at home, I had to include that SMTP as the outgoing server.) Anyway, I synched this mail account (along with my AOL and .Mac accounts) onto the iPhone, and it works perfectly, both incoming and outgoing. I didn't have to change any of the settings. I thought I was computer savvy, but I can't wrap my mind around this. It seems like magic. How does it work?

The sync process with iTunes transfers the email account settings (for your chosen accounts via your iPhone sync preferences) from the Mail application on your Mac to the iPhone's email application.
The iPhone is running OS X and the iPhone's email client can be considered a mobile version of the Mail application.

Cloud Tool - How does it work?

We can't figure out how to get the Cloud Tool to work - it just puts down a red wavy line that stops wherever you click on the page - I want it to circle stuff but all I can do is make stupid lines....
It doesn't work like the circle, oval or box tool.
I guess no one know how it works......

Thanks,
Is there a key combination you can hold down to make it roundish or square
or scale it proportionately?
Please don¹t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Thanks!

The cloud tool works in a similar fashion to a polygon tool. Click to draw
lines keep clicking until you get back close to the origin. The Cloud will
close itself and open a comment box for your use.

W530 - How does things work when having two graphics cards?

So I have a W530 with an Intel HD Graphics 4000 and a NVIDIA Quadro K2000M.
How does things work when the computer has two graphics cards? I mean, is only one active at a time? Or is one doing complex calculations while the other one might be the one displaying them on the screen?
Related question:
I just bought and installed the game Portal 2. How do I know if it is using the better graphics card (NVIDIA Quadro K2000M)? And if it is not, how do I configure Windows, Steam or Portal 2 to use it to its full potential?

Technically, the Intel integrated graphics is always active, although it is not always in use. Nvidia graphics will turn on and off according to need. Software from Nvidia called Optimus automatically switches between integrated (Intel) and dedicated (Nvidia) graphics, according to the application. Portal 2 will run smoothly at maximum settings and native 1920x1080 resolution using the K2000M. The easiest way to see which graphics card is in use is to check the "Display GPU activity icon in notification area" option in the Desktop menu of the Nvidia control panel. It should automatically use the Nvidia graphics card when Steam is running. If it does not, you can add Steam to the program settings in Nvidia control panel and select that it should always use the Nvidia graphics.
Also, if you are using an external monitor and the notebook monitor, then you will be using both graphics cards - the Intel graphics will drive the notebook screen and the Nvidia card will power the external display(s).

IMessage and SMS fallback - how does it work?

Hi community,
I am really struggling to understand how iMessage works when the receiver use iMessage normally but does not have a data connection for whatever reason (but does have normal GSM cellphone signal). People are saying that iMessage is intelligent and will fall-back on SMS if the recipient is not contactable on iMessage - but this seemingly DOES NOT HAPPEN. It only automatially falls-back on SMS if the sender (ie. me) does not have data coverage - which is useless, I know when I dont have data - I can work that one out for myself thank-you-very-much Apple.
My friends on limited data plans will often turn their mobile-data off (from the settings menu) to save on $ charges and on battery life. I of course, never know exactly when they have done this. So at various times when they have data enabled iMessage will discover the link between their apple ID and phone number and automatically start using iMessage - which is great. However if on a subsequent day they turn their data off, I will try to message them and they will never receive it but I will get no clear indication on my end that this has failed. It might be 2 or 3 days until they turn their data back on, or stumble into a free hotspot until they get my message.
The same happened when I went abroad but in reverse - I turned my data off, yet my family's phones were still trying to send me iMessage messages, I didn't get them for several days until I connected my iPad to a hotel's WiFi.
So the only way I can be sure messages get through to my friends and family and that my friends and family can get through to me in a timely manner is for us ALL to disable iMessage completely. Making iMessage pointless.
Please prove me wrong, but I cannot get it to function in any other way.

I remember having sent an iMessage to one of my friends and I was wondering why it firstly was sent as an iMessage and then obviously got sent another time, this time the bubble turned green so I knew it was an SMS. Later I asked him why this might probably have happened and he told me he was doing a phone call and fell back to GSM, and he wasn't connected to WiFi.
So my impression is that iMessage indeed also screens whether the recipient has internet connection or not. If he doesn't, the iPhone will send an SMS.
Regards

I have an event in my calendar that was sent by someone who does not work for the company anymore and I am reminded 2 times a week. How can I remove it?

I have an event in my calendar that was sent by someone that does not work for the company anymore and I am reminded 2 times a week. How do I delete it?

Tap on the event to open the event. Click the 'Edit' button in the event bubble, then press the 'Delete Event' button at the bottom of the Edit pop-up. It's a little different for events that come through Microsoft Exchange, you tap the event to bring up bubble and click the 'Details' button, and then press 'Decline' to remove the event.

My iPhone was stolen and I have contacted the police who are using the meid number to locate. How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back?

My iPhone was stolen. I used Find My iPhone app to lock it and display a message. The phone has not connected to the internet to locate it. I contacted the police and they have taken my meid number. How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back? Are there other ways the theif can use it. I was told once they put in a new sim card and use it, whatever software the police have, it will show up.

Honestly? In the US (I can't speak to other countries, though I doubt it works much differently in a lot of the world) The police took your report and filed it either in their computers or, on paper. They will now not think of this again. The only time it will cross anyones mind is if, in the course of entering information into evidence about items recovered or seized at a crime scene, the serial number of an iPhone that was found/seized happens to match yours, in which case you will be contacted.
The police in the US can and will do nothing to 'blok' the phone and it's not worth their time to try and locate it unless you know for a fact that it was stolen by a big time drug lord, master criminal, or some other such prime target and they can get a court order to track the location of the phone in order to locate this individual for your own purposes. If they do that, they'll probably keep him under surveilance for a year or so before they act.
Basically, the police don't care about your phone. If they find it, they will give it back to you. They are not, however, going to go looking for it. They have better things to do.
I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.
