I'm Planning to purchase an iPad2 in India

My primary objective is to replacing usage of Laptop with iPad2.
So can I get following functionalities in iPad2?
1. Downloading Music file like MP3s.
2. Downloading and playing most common Video file extensions like AVI, MPEG, ISO, DIVX, EVO or BSF etc.
3. Downloading games from various websites can install them and play.
4. Can use iPad as phone (2G Spectrum) and can make phone calls
5. Can watch online videos from youtube or other webs thru flash player.
Do reply.
Thanks a lot.

An iPad is no a replacement for a computer, it is designed to be used with a computer - a computer is needed for syncing content to it, backing up its content, and (until iOS 5 is installed later this year) iOS updates).
1, you can buy music directly on the iPad from iTunes and you can sync music to it by connecting it to your computer's iTunes. You can't attach an external drive and copy music that way
2, by connecting to your computer you can copy videos or you can buy by from iTunes. The supported video formats are listed on this page http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/
3, you can only install apps from the iTunes App Store - 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) games are not compatible with the iPad (iOS)
4, you can do FaceTime and Skype type calls. You can't do normal phone calls, the iPad is not a phone
5, flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Plus it would be up to Adobe to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices - something which they have never managed to do and which they have now given up on trying to do. Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so you could try checking there for your sites. There is a built-in YouTube app.

    I am planning to purchase an ipad2(with 3G)  in US. Which version should I purchase (AT&T or Verizon)? Will thye be unlocked?

    If you want to be able to use the iPad with local micro-sims when you back to New Zealand then you need the AT&T version - the Verizon model is CDMA based and doesn't use sim cards. The AT&T iPad is not locked to them.

  • I want to purchase an IPAD2, do I have to get a plan from ATT or Verizon if I only want the WI-FI option?

    I want to purchase an Ipad2 do I have to get a plan from AT&T or Verizon if I only want the WI-FI option?

    No you can just purchase the WiFi only version of the iPad and not worry about the 3G.  Or if you buy the 3G just don't bother with a plan until you decide you want one.

    thanks.  your answer was correct, clearer.  I have another question, maybe you can answer.  I just purchase my ipad2 2 days ago.  yesterday, there was a sound.  today there is no sound.  there is a sound only in movies and you tube and music.  but no sound on all apps and keyboards.  I look it up and seems like ther are few that have this problem.  I called walmart coz I bought it there and they told me that they have not heard that before but if I can't fix it, just return it and exchange it with anew one since I have 14 days to do that.  I tried rebooting it and still won't work.  Should I just restore it?

  • Just purchased a ipad2, could not us it on my MacBook 10.4.1 - Purchased and installed OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3 - downloaded and installed latest itunes, set up a itunes accounts and tested by purchasing an album and app, ipad does not show in devises?

    I just purchased a ipad2, it would not work on my MacBook 10.4.1 I purchased and installed OSX snow leopard 10.6.3 downloaded and installed the latest itunes, set up an itunes account, purchased some music and apps.  When i plug in my ipod it shows up and works, but when i plug in my new ipad the ipad screen comes up with a display of a cable and itunes but does not show in devises, i have tried all the resets and different USB ports with no success.  Any ideas short of selling it on ebay or buying a new computer?

    If you've already tried the usual rebooting of the computer and ports and stuff, there is only a few things left I can think of. It's possible that when you updated iTunes it didn't fully replace all the files, so I suggest just manually removing iTunes and then reinstalling it.
    Try removing iTunes manually first http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224 then download a fresh copy, make sure it is 10.3.1
    It is essential that you go through Finder to remove those files it mentions. Otherwise they won't be reinstalled when you run the installer again.

  • I've just purchased an ipad2 and have synced it with outlook to get all contacts.  I've also set up my earthlink mail account and it sends/receives fine.  IS there a way to sync it so I get all of the legacy emails sitting in the OUtlook inbox?

    I've just purchased an ipad2 and have synced it with Outlook to get all contacts, etc.  I've set up the mail account and it is working just fine.  The sync doesn't pull over legacy emails from Outlook and my Outlook has been set up to remove them from the webmail server therefore they aren't available from webmail anymore.  Is there anyway to pull them over to the iPad? 

    But is there a way (simple or not-so-simple) to find
    out EVERY SINGLE FILE that's referenced on a
    timeline? (I have lots of stuff imported into the
    project that I know isn't used on any timeline, but
    I'm afraid of moving or deleting things for fear of
    never finding it again.)
    I'd love to get some sort of "printout" (a list or
    something) of every single file.
    There is, go to browser and cntrl click on any one of the columns,
    and select - show/source. A new column named "source" will pop up and will show where everything "lives". Click on the header at the top and it will justify the column as well. You'll notice this won't show anything for your seq.'s. of course, but will show stills/audio/motion files...
    Once you have the new column, you can drag it next to the "name" column and get a grab of it and print it if you like, or whatever.
    If you want to do this for just 1 seq., then can create a new bin and double click it to open it. Cntrl-A (select all) in your main seq. and just drag all into the new bin. You will see only what's in that seq. with the "source" column right next to it.
    From what I've read, you seem to get the MM thing and it's obviously what you'll need to do to archive as the guys said. But what your missing is a file path system to where everything resides.
    Hope this helps and that I've read you properly,
    Peace

  • I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad.  Can I use the iPad as a monitor and keyboard for the Mac mini, either through the USB connection or thru Wi-Fi?

    I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad.  Can I use the iPad as a keyboard and screen for the Mac mini, using either the USB connector or Wi-Fi?

    I'm sorry, I should have said thru Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi.  I want to use the mini as a base station and the iPad like a laptop that I can sync when I'm home and carry with me when I travel.  Is is possible to hook these 2 up - iPad/mini, through Bluetooth?  I understand I need to use a regular monitor/keyboard/mouse on the initial install.

  • Enable billing plan to purchase requisition made in PS

    Good afternoon, Mr.
    I'm generating purchase requisitions through the Project, and I'm running into a problem:
    When generating the purchase requisition SAP is not taking into account the invoicing plan registered with the material component, thereby to generate an appointment request in the amount of the request for the date of need, instead of generating commitments over the time as registered in the billing plan.
    How do I activate the billing plan in purchase requisitions generated in the ER, could have programmed the commitment over time.
    Att,
    André Santos

    Hi,
    I think you are creating an invoice plan against the activities in a Project, When PR is created against a project system generates commitments, but this invoice will not get copied to PR, as PR is not a legal document, but when we convert this PR to PO we can copy the invoice plan into PO and can have control on this invoice plan as per milestones set in it.
    In your post you mentioned billing plan, billing plan will be relavant for SD billing and it will not have any impact on commitments wrt project.
    Thank
    Regards

    Someday - and no one knows when that day will come - maybe all applications will be able to take advantage of the Retina display. But for the present, not many do: including all Adobe applications. There was a demo of Photoshop at the Apple World Wide Developers Conference of Photoshop running at native Retina resolutions but no one at Adobe in marketing is saying when, if or how the upgrade may be coming. It could be a week, it could be a year, it could be 2-3 years. No one knows. And only Apple app's (for the main part) are really utilizing the native Retina display.
    I've seen some demos of some applications (Apple's) that take advantage of the Retina display and they're awesome. But in actually working in the here-and-now I've heard quite a few gripes, particularly on the Photoshop forum, of menus looking pixelated and/or 'blurry' so I'm not quite ready to jump into the Retina display boat just now. Don't get me wrong - others have ad are very, very pleased with their selection. But until Retina displays are available on larger monitors, the maximum work area that you're going to be able to use is 15" - and that's simply not enough room for full-blown graphic design. Then there's the cost factor - for the $4,000+ you spend for a completely full-blown Retina kit, you can get a standard MacBook Pro, 16 GB of RAM, a fast SSD and even the Apple Thunderbolt Display for the same amount.
    The standard MacBook Pro isn't better than the Retina display: it's just different. And I think (and this is only my opinion - other graphic designers should feel free to jump in here) that it's the best computer that you can get for your specific purposes. And, towards that goal, I have to recommend a very good external monitor (there's nothing more annoying than having to use InDesign in a single-page mode rather than side-by-side because your monitor isn't big enough).
    Remember that this is only my opinion and that others might jump in with their own. But I was in the electronic pre-press business for more years than I care to admit and we always - always - worked with at least 19" monitors (and that's back when dinosaurs actually ruled the world).
    I hope that others will jump in with their comments. I'm going to follow this thread and see!
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • I purchased an Ipad2 a few days ago and it will not charge using various car chargers. It connects but within a few minutes, it reads not charging. The car chargers work with the IPhone.

    I purchased an ipad2 and it doesn't charge using any of the car chargers we use for the iPhone. It connects but then reads not charging.

    I'm not surprised.  Most car outlets do not provide sufficient power for the iPad to charge, but will work fine with an iPhone.  Mine does the same thing.

  • I JUST PURCHASED A IPAD2 AND WANT TO PASS ON MY IPAD ORIGINAL. HOW DO I CLEAR IT BACK TO ORIGINAL STATUS.

    I JUST PURCHASED A IPAD2 AND WANT TO PASS ON MY IPAD ORGINAL.   I WANT TO CLEAR IT AND RETURN IT TO FACTORY SETTINGS.  THIS MUST BE DONE ON WINDOW 8.  IT HAS CHANGED TO MUCH TO UNDERSTAND.

    I assume that you've copied everything off it that you want ?
    You don't need to use your computer (on iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar that used to appear via control-S, that may make it easier to navigate). On your iPad tap on your id in Settings > Store and log out of your account, and then do Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings to remove all your content from it.
    For future info typing all in capitals is considered shouting, make the post difficult to read, and may mean that people don't reply.
