I am considering using I Pad for a presentation and want to use it in a wireless environment and though a projector not a TV monitor. Can I use Apple TV and apple wireless base,

I am considering using I PAD for a presentation using a projector.  How can this be done.  will Apple TV connect to a projector and if so does the projector have to have an HDMI slot or is there some sort of adapter to convert VGA slot so it connects with Apple TV. I also want to do it wirelessly so does the Apple wireless device work for this purpose, is so what do I need to connect that to the Apple TV  and to projector.  So, ideally I want to be able to operate the IPAD without it being connected to cables and have the image procted on screen using a projector which only has the VGA slot not an HDMI slot. any suggestions will be appreciated.

It can use Apple Tv, but will require a wireless network as well. The Apple TV has an HDMI output, and depending on the projector it may connect directly to it through HDMI.
There are adpaters out there that will convert from HDMI to several other types such as VGA or Composite oir RGB. It would not be directly an Apple product as it would work with the HDMI cable rather than the apple TV or iPad directly.
Basically your setup should be:
iPad  -> Wifi Network -> Apple TV-- HDMI Cable-->Adapter---->Projector
If the iPad is iPad 2 or above you can mirror the entire display to the projector through the apple Tv.
The Adapter would be something like this for instance:
http://www.amazon.com/Sanoxy-HDMI-Composite-S-Video-Converter/dp/B0047PDBP0
Or this:
http://www.amazon.com/ViewHD-Component-Converter-Support-Surround/dp/B004F9XVBC
With that said there are projectors that can be used wirelessly from the ipad without the need for Apple Tv or any adapter.
Epson makes one and a proprietary App to use it.

  • My daughter has somehow figured out how to register for her own Apple ID but is very underage. She is not giving me the correct info for me to get into her email. She has downloaded some apps that I would not allow. How can I recover her Apple ID info?

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

    If you can view the main home screen, try selecting "settings" on the far right, then choose recent at the bottom. If not, try just unplugging power for a few minutes, then plug in and try again. Keep in mind you'll need a wireless connection and there may be several updates. Hope this helps-

    1. Don't do it and waste your money
    2. The US prices exclude Tax which is added at the till depending on state and can be upto 15% more than the quoted price. All EU retail prices are required to include local taxes and import duties by regulation.
    3. On return to the EU you are liable for 22% VAT on your purchase
    4. The iPhone does NOT have an international warranty.It breaks you are stuffed.
    5. The US models do NOT support all European LTE frequencies .None support the Band 7 (2600mhz) frequency being deployed by many European Mobile networks.
    6. Buy locally if you want all functionality warranty support and when taxes are included the prices are pretty much the same anyway.

    Apple doesn't unlock iPhones. Only the carrier they're locked to can; not all carriers offer this.

  • How do I set permissions between iMac and Macbook Pro using apple extreme base station hooked up to comcast modem

    I am trying to share files on my iMac with my wife's macbook Pro for which I am set up as a second user with administration privileges.  I think i have the computers finding each other (for example my iMac shows up on the shared list in my wifes's finder window), but when I try to open a file it says I do not have permission(s).  Is there a manual I can look at that walks me through this step by step.
    I know I have to mark files on my iMac to allow for sharing.  How do I designate a particular user as having permission to share.  I only want to be able to share my iMac when I am logged in on my user account on the Macbook Pro (and vise versa, I would like to be able to access the files on the Macbook Pro, when I am logged in as the user on my iMac.
    Thank you for your assistance and precious time.

    I am supposed to have it set so that it is placed at:

    How do I do these or is there a better way to send http://10.0.11.1/main.html

  • Safari 7.1 can't display Apple Knowledge Base pages

    Here's a strange one:
    I routinely visit Apple's Knowledge Base web pages when seeking help for using various OSX tools.
    As of a couple of weeks ago, whenever I attempt to visit a kbase page using Safari 7.1, all I get is a blank screen. If I load the same URL into Chrome, the kbase page displays just fine.
    For example, I can see this page in Google Chrome but not Safari:
    iMovie (2013): Effects and adjustments overview
    Am I alone? Is this a weird Safari bug that others have encountered?

  • Computer for Video Editing for the Present and Beyond

    In an earlier post I announced that I have been a Premiere Elements user since Day One, and I also mentioned I was looking to have a new computer built from scratch rather than purchase from Dell or HP. I am close to finalizing that build, and am looking forward to upgrading to Elements 8.0. I am also looking forward to becoming a subscriber to Muvipix.com. Becoming a part of the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum coupled with being an eventual subscriber to Muvipix.com has elevated my enthusiasm for video editing. Special Thanks go to Bill Hunt and Steve Grisetti for anchoring this Adobe Pre E Forum. Your advice has motivated me to take my video editing with Premiere Elements to another level.
    Speaking of advice, what does everyone think of the following specifications for my new computer? Is this a solid computer for video editing? In some cases some components lack specificity (model numbers, brand names, et cetera). Suggestions and comments will be greatly appreciated as I take this final step. Thanks to all!

    I read your computer spec sheet. Thanks for sharing. You  said the ideal thing to do is use the computer just for video editing.  Best way to go. However, you still need an OS, which requires updates.  And you need to update drivers, and then there are product updates and  add-ons. You need to connect with the Internet to do all of this
    I do not have $$ or space to have 2 computers, so my single computer is for day to day work, and video editing as a hobbyist... which of course is not "ideal" for video editing... but I don't make $$ at this, so I use what I have
    I am still learning about Win7 64bit, so do not have all the startup process optimized... that is my next project, to figure out what does not need to be running, and remove that un-needed stuff from the startup

  • Hi, I have just purchased a ipad mini for my wife and have registered it in my name so that i can add some apps that i think she would appreciate. However if i want to contact her using face time it is registered in my name, how do you get around that?

    Hi I have just purchased an i pad for my wife and have registered it in my name to add some apps prior to giving the i pad to her. However, for using face time and games where you can link via wifi it will look as though there are two of the same, if I am trying to link her ipad to mine. How do you get around this?

  • Why I can't see Apple website videos on Samsung tablet? Used many browsers, same result...

    I could not find a website issues community and this one was the closest I could find. If this needs to be moved to a different community, please do so.
    I realize it's cross platforms, but web browsing should be the same for everyone, no matter what device is used.
    I can watch Apple website videos just fine on Windows/Chrome browser (or IE, Firefox) but can't on Samsung Android/Chrome browser (also tried Firefox, Opera, Samsung browser).
    Other websites embedded videos are working (i.e. youtube, vimeo, forums etc.) so far it is only the Apple website embedded videos that are not working.
    Any idea why?

    If it's any help, here is what Samsung Support says:
    Please wait for a Samsung Agent to respond.
    You are now chatting with 'Alberto'. There will be a brief survey at the end of our chat to share feedback on my performance today.
    Your Issue ID for this chat is LTK1125603600195X
    Alberto: Hi, thank you for reaching out to Samsung technical support. How may I assist you?
    Alex: Hi there
    Alex: Why I can't see Apple website videos on Samsung tablet? Used many browsers, same result...
    Alex: I can watch Apple website videos just fine on Windows/Chrome browser (or IE, Firefox) but can't on Samsung Android/Chrome browser (also tried Firefox, Opera, Samsung browser). Other websites embedded videos are working (i.e. youtube, vimeo, forums etc.) so far it is only the Apple website embedded videos that are not working. Any idea why?
    Alberto: Hello, I understand that you want to see apple website videos on Samsung tablet, is it correct?
    Alex: correct
    Alberto: Thank you for the confirmation.
    Alberto: What is the model number of your tablet? It starts with GT/SM which can be found on the rear panel.
    Alex: Don't have it with me but it's the Tab S 8.4
    Alex: Same goes for my phone, Galaxy S5
    Alberto: Okay,Do you see any error message while browsing?
    Alex: nope, no error, it just won't play any video on apple website, ALL other websites videos are plaing OKare
    Alex: playing Ok is what I meant
    Alex: and this is the same for my tablet AND my phone
    Alex: devices are updated to the latest software bla, bla
    Alberto: Alright, please restart the tablet once.
    Alex: scale of 1 to 10 on tech advance level, I am at 7-8, just so you don't take me through power recycle and such
    Alex: you just did
    Alex: it's not that
    Alberto: Could you give me a few minutes while I gather the information for you?
    Alex: you can grab a galaxy tablet or a phone and try for yourself and yo'll probably notice it won't work...
    Alberto: I appreciate your time and patience.
    Alberto: As you are able to see other website's embedded videos on your tablet, it could be an issue with the compatibility of Apple website.
    Alberto: There should be no issue with the trablet as other websites are working fine.
    Alex: Can you transfer me to your Guru tech person to see if I can get a more elaborate answer and maybe a fix for this?
    Alex: Then why the apple videos work fine on windows PC and the ONLY ones not working are Android devices?
    Alberto: I have rechecked the information.
    Alberto: As you are facing an issue only with a particular web site there should not be issue with the Samsung tablet.
    Alberto: Also tablet is working fine with other web sites which indicates that there is an issue with that particular web site.
    Alberto: There is no separate setting on the tablet to access any particular web site.
    Alex: This much I figured, problem is what is causing it and how it can be solved? Again, issue is only on Android devices. PC Windows and iOS devices work good
    Alberto: I am afraid; Samsung do not have information about the issues with a particular web site.
    Alberto: I would have surely helped, if there had been information available with me.
    Alex: Yes, I was afraid you'll say this...
    Alex: Do you have an android device there? Try it yourself and see it will not work. Whatever it is IT IS A PROBLEM!!!
    Alberto: I understand your requirement; however, it will not be possible for me to check this from here.
    Alberto: You need to contact the web site support for further assistance.
    Alberto: Is there anything I might be able to assist you with?
    Alex: yeah, it went as expected, no fix for this... do you have a level 2 or 3 or 4 tech there?
    Alberto: I will transfer this chat to my supervisor.
    Alberto: Please be online while I transfer this chat.
    Alex: sure, thanks
    Alberto: Not a problem.
    Please wait while I transfer the chat to 'Sammy'.
    You are now chatting with 'Sammy'. There will be a brief survey at the end of our chat to share feedback on my performance today.
    Your Issue ID for this chat is LTK1125603600195X
    Sammy: Hello Alex. I am the supervisor of Alberto.
    Sammy: I am going through the previous chat session.
    Alex: Ok, thanks
    Sammy: You are welcome.
    Sammy: I appreciate your time and patience.
    Sammy: I see that you are unable to access Apple website videos on your tab.
    Alex: and on my S5
    Sammy: As you are able to access the videos from all the other web sites, it is not an issue with Samsung tab and Samsung do not have any control on this issue.
    Sammy: It is an issue with that particular web site and you need to contact the web site support for further assistance.
    Sammy: There is no separate setting on the tab to access a particular web site.
    Alex: Yes, I need to do that. At this point it's the technical aspect that bothers me, not that I can't watch the video, I can use my iPhone or my PC to watch the video, but why the Android can't?
    Alex: Thank you Alberto
    Alex: or Sammy
    Sammy: I understand your requirement; however, we do not have any information about this issue.
    Alex: Ok, thanks
    Sammy: I apologize for the inconvenience.
    Sammy: Is there anything else I can assist you with?
    Alex: no
    Sammy: Thanks for chatting with Samsung Support. If you have a minute, please click on the blue “X close” button to receive the transcript of your chat and fill out a brief survey to help us serve you better.

  • Apple knowledge base keywords

    Hey all, sorry if this is a bit OT, but I figure that fellow server wranglers are often looking thru the apple knowledge base so this would be a good place to ask...
    Apple used to have a doc dealing with keywords and their usage within the site, located below, but it is now dead...
