How to get internet on your ipad without having to hook up a ub cord to your computer

How do you get internet access on your ipad without having to hook up your ub cord to the computer

iPad is a WiFi and/or 3G device.
In order to use it as the wireless device it was intended, the easiest methods are either buy a WiFi router and if your computer is lacking any type of WiFi capability, you hook up your Internet connection directly to the router, then another wired Ethernet connection to your computer.
You'll need to configure the router via the supplied software for your computer or supplied instructions.
Once the router is set up, you should be able to turn on the wifi connection in the Settings app on your iPad.
Your iPad should see the new wifi signal. Follow any instructions that follow to allow you to connect to the WiFi signal and you should be good to go to be able to use the internet and check your email wirelessly on your iPad.
If you computer has WiFi capability already, instead of purchasing a router, you can purchase an Apple Airport Express. Plug it in to the wall, hook your internet connection to this. Install the Airport Express software to your computer. Configure the AE and your computer to pick up the AE Wifi signals via both the AE software and network software on your computer.
This way both your computer and iPad can share the wifi signal from the Airport Express.
If you own a Mac, there is a an easy procedure for setting up and using an Airport Express with both iPad and Mac.

  • How to get rid of 'Your computer's bluetooth firmware is up-to-date' message?

    Hi. I just updated the Bluetooth on my iMac (OS X 10.5), but now each time I turn on my computer, this (annoying) message show up: Your computer's bluetooth firmware is up-to-date.
    How to get rid of it?
    I tried someone's suggestion to turn it off by going to  System Preference > Account > Login Items, but it's not listed there..
    Also, is there a way to use FaceTime on my iMac?
    Thanks!

    Hello, not sure about the Bloetooth thing, I have none, but it sounds like some file didn't get removed aftrt a BT update.
    As far as FaceTime, no, it requires the App Store & 10.6.6...
    "To download FaceTime from the Mac App Store, you need a Mac with Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later."

  • How can I sync a tv show without having to sync the whole library from a different computer?(For 5th generation ipod)

    So I have a 5th generation nano, and I want to put a tv show on it from my friends computer. (I'm able to put songs on my ipod) But everytime I drag it to my library it says: it was not copied because you are not autorized on this computer.
    so when i try to do it manually it says I can do it but i have to erase everything I have and sync whats on her computer to my ipod. How can I just get this **** tv show onto my ipod??? is there a way?

    Is this a TV show you purchased with your own iTunes account or your friend iTunes store account?  If it was your own account, simply authorize your purchased content on your friend's computer.  To do this, head to the Store drop down menu in iTunes and choose Authorize This Computer.  Then enter in your iTunes store credentials and then try resyncing the TV Show to your iPod.

  • How do i get it on my iPad without paying again?

    how do i get Pages on my iPad without paying - again?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you purchased Pages for the iPhone, iPod touch or iPad in the past, you don't have to pay again to install Pages on your iPad. Just open App Store > Purchased, and download Pages.
    If you purchased Pages for Mac, you have to purchase Pages for your iPad. That's because Pages for Mac and Pages for the iPad are different versions designed for different App Stores and different operating systems (OS X and iOS)

    How To reset iPad without having it synced to a computer and not knowing the password????  I changed my password and have forgotten it is there any way I can access and get on it??? Thanks

    You must use a computer. There is no way around it for you.
    You have to restore the device within iTunes. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad. You will have to download all of your purchased content again after you unlock the device.
    You will have to use recovery mode

  • Can you not buy a internet card for a iPad without having to have wifi at your home

    CCan. You not buy a internet card for a iPad without having wifi at your home?

    You cannot buy an internet card for the iPad, but you can purchase a mobile hotspot or MIFI device to use as your connection to the internet. Yoy will need to purchase a data plan from a carrier in your area as well in order for this to work.
    Google "MIFI devices or mobile hotspots" to see what is avalable in your area. I have this one.

  • I just got the mid 2011 macbook air and it does not have ilife or iPhoto on it...isnt it supposed to come with it? and if it does then how do i get it on the mac without having to pay for it in the app store?

    I just got a macbook air and i thought that it was supposed to come with ilife already installed? But there is not ilife apps...how do i get  it on the laptop without having to buy them all from the app store if it was supposed to come with it?

    From the iPhoto Licence:
    3. Transfer.
    A. Apple Software obtained from the Mac App Store is not transferable. If you sell your Apple-branded hardware to a third party, you must remove the Apple Software from the Apple-branded hardware before doing so.
    B. For any preinstalled Apple Software, you may make a one-time permanent transfer of all of your license rights to the Apple Software (in its original form as provided by Apple) to another party, provided that: the Apple Software is transferred together with your Apple-branded hardware; (ii) the transfer must include all of the Apple Software, including all its component parts, printed materials and this License; (iii) you do not retain any copies of the Apple Software, full or partial, including copies stored on a computer or other storage device; (iv) you have not associated the Apple Software with your Mac App Store account as set forth in Section 2B; and (v) the party receiving the Apple Software reads and agrees to accept the terms and conditions of this License.
    If the previous owner accepted the preinstalled software (iPhoto, etc) to the AppleID, it cannot be passed on to a new owner. Even if the previous owed would use her or his Applied to install it for you, you would never be able to reinstall it or to update it.
    In that case buy your own copies of the software.

  • My ipad and ipod were both stolen from my home during a robbery. how do I unauthorize both of these without having them in my possession. I did delete the ipad from my itunes account and have changed my passwords.

    My ipad and my ipod were both stolen during a robbery at our home. How can I deauthorize both of these without having them in my possession? I did delete the ipad from my itunes account.

    (You may have to change your name to "unlucky girl1")
    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
    Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

  • How to download youtube videos to ipad without using a computer.

    How to download youtube videos to ipad without using a computer???  Looking to download some videos people created using Dr. Jean music.  My kid used Dr. Jean in preschool and wanted to keep singing them at home.
    Looking for a friend that doesn't use a computer.  I myself have downloaded some kids educational stuff and added to itunes and then put on ipod/ipad using firefox. 
    Is there an easy way, so they don't go to the photo roll??
    thanks in advance.

    There are some Apps you can use, but be careful they will only download these videos inside the App, so you won't ba able to play them in your video app or share them.
    Most popular is the app called "Video Download" but there are a lot of alternatives for free and even with more quality which you can pay for.

  • How secure is Internet shopping with ipad mini

    How secure is Internet shopping with ipad mini

    Same as any other iPad or iPhone. 
    There has been no malware that I have heard of on the iPad.
    I would say it is very safe.  I buy on the inernet all the time.
    Optional: for a minor improvement in security, change your DNS server to Google
    You could change your DNS server to Googles. I use Google.
    Google provides free dns lookup.  Their numbers are:

  • How to get List Item attachments name without write any custom code or any database query?

    Hi,
    How to get List Items attachments name without write any custom code or any database query?

    You can get it from Rest,
    There are 2 options,
    1) create a 'Result Source' which has a search query for that List which has attachments 
     - Use rest query to get the 'Filename' , it will have the attachment file name 
    For example, if the result source id is : 73e6b573-abf8-4407-9e5f-8a85a4a95159 , then the query will be 
    http://[site URL]/_api/search/query?querytext='*'&selectproperties='Title,Path,FileExtension,SecondaryFileExtension,Filename'&sourceid='73e6b573-abf8-4407-9e5f-8a85a4a95159'&startrow=0&rowLimit=100
    You can refine the query, be giving proper 'querytext'
    2) Use the List rest api
    For example if your list guid is :38d524a1-e95c-439f-befd-9ede6ecd242e
    You can get he attachments for 1st item using this 
    http://[Site URL]/_api/lists(guid'38d524a1-e95c-439f-befd-9ede6ecd242e')/items(1)/AttachmentFiles

  • HT4061 how do i reset password on iPad without total reset

    how do i reset password on ipad without total reset?

    You don't.
    You will need to restore your iPad from the same computer that you most recently synced to.
    Read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If you can't do the restore then you will need to try recovery mode.
