I'm traveling to Hawaii and wondering if my iPad will work? I have wifi on it but do I need to turn it into a wifi hotspot?

I need help to figure this out b4 I leave on Monday.

Turning your iPad into a WiFi Hotspot, is only necessary if you are needing to share WiFi with other devices, if your iPad is already connected to WiFi or Cellular etc..
Ask the Hotel where you are staying for their WiFi information for Guests and connect to their WiFi Network in the list that shows up in iPads WiFi Settings.

I'm having problems with 8.1 and Continuity / Handoff. It will work fine for web pages, etc. but in email when I try to do it between by iPhone 5s running 8.1 and my Macbook Pro running Yosemite I consistently get an error.

I'm having problems with 8.1 and Continuity / Handoff. It will work fine for web pages, etc. but in email when I try to do it between by iPhone 5s running 8.1 and my Macbook Pro running Yosemite I consistently get an error. "Failed to Continue Activity" Cocoa Error 4609. Handoff is working for phone calls and text messages. By email just crashes each time. It was also doing it under 8.0.2. My iPhone and iPad handle this fine. It's only the MacBook to the iPhone that fails, and only on email.

HT3847 Using 'Grand Perspective' to see my files, I have both iTunes media and iTunes music files. It seems I have 'organised' my media, but should or need there still be both types of files? I am running out of HD space and thought, maybe, 'merging' .

I'm trying to free up disk space. When I look at my files using 'Grand Perspective' (Like 'Disk Inventory X'), I see songs in both iTunes music and iTunes media files. I'm wonder if there is some kind of duplication between them. Could I find HD space by doing something with these files? I've already 'organised' them using the iTunes library feature. But I note that it seems that organizing could leave the old (?) files in their 'original place'. That sounds to me like duplication.
I'm not at all a 'techie' so don't know where to go from here.

You are asking several different questions. If you need to store your photos, music, and movies on an external volume, you certainly can. Any externally connected hard disk drive will work, connected either directly to your Mac or to your Time Capsule as a shared volume.
You should not rely upon using that as a backup device though. Although you certainly may use it for both purposes, it is a better idea to have dedicated backup devices for a variety of reasons not limited to redundancy. You would not want to simultaneously lose all your pictures as well as your backup. If they are all on the same device, that could happen. Furthermore, a backup cannot back up the volume on which it is running.
As for adding an Extreme or Express, using its LAN port for your iMac, and then enable Internet sharing so you can effectively use the iMac as a "hotspot", you can do that too, but I am unclear on what benefit you believe this arrangement would convey for you.
An Extreme's Guest network is separate from its Main network; that is the reason for having it.

I am looking to hook up my MacBook (white) 7.1 to my hmdi tv and wondered if this wire will work?

If you want to use the Composite input on your TV there’s no Mini DisplayPort to Composite. The only adapters with Composite are the older Mini-DVI adapters. (Composite is the red, white and yellow RCA plugs on your TV or red, white and S-Video plugs.).
You’ll could try a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_19?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field -keywords=mini+displayport+to+vga&sprefix=mini+Displayport+to
And then a VGA Adapter to TV S-Video RCA Out Cable for PC Video. http://www.amazon.com/VGA-Adapter-S-Video-Cable-Video/dp/B000Y7T5UU/ref=sr_1_7?s =electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1316369974&sr=1-7
I don't know if that would work but it's the only way I would know.

You posted in the iPad forum instead of the MacBook Pro forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

Hello katyhale,
I found a couple of articles that might help with the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes Store.
If you are getting a white screen when accessing the iTunes Store and using a Windows computer, I recommend reviewing this article:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123
If you are still not able to access the store, I recommend the following article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts. His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine. I haven't received mail since Saturday and as we use the email for business I desperately need it.

I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts. His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine. I haven't received mail since Saturday. We use the email for business I desperately need it and I don't have a laptop anymore as it is broken. In my wisdom I desired to buy an ipad instead, what a mistake.

The iPad will support multiple Gmail accounts, but of course you have to set each one up individually. Did you set up both accounts? Go into Settings/ Mail, Contacts, Calendars to confirm both accounts exist. If they do, also familiarize yourself on how to navigate between accounts to make sure you can view your Inbox. You may also want to check your settings to make sure that you have the default account set up as you expect for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Notes (if you're using all those features). That is important only when initiating something new, you have to have a default account to do such a thing so make sure the default is your account since it is your iPad (assuming that's what you want).
Alternatively, install the free Gmail app and then use only his (or your) account with that app and use the standard iOS Mail app for the other account.

HT201302 I am trying to clear space on our iPad. If I delete photos and videos on the iPad, will they remain saved on our iCloud account? Need the space, don't want to lose the photos!

I am trying to clear space on our iPad. If I delete photos and videos on the iPad, will they remain saved on our iCloud account? Need the space, don't want to lose the photos!

They will be backed up only until you backup again. iCloud is not a storage drive in the sky, it is a backup service only. If you delete the photos and videos from the camera roll, and then you backup the iPad with iCloud, you will overwrite that backup and the photos will be gone.
Import the photos to your computer if they are that important to you. iCloud is for backup only, not a storage place that you can download your photos from again once you overwrite that backup.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
