If you take your ipad everywhere, do you need an iphone or an ipod touch?

If you really like the ipad and take it with you everywhere, do you really now need a smartphone like an iphone or an ipod touch. The ipad has all the apps the iphone or ipod touch has and its a larger screen. Why would now use your phone for anything put making phone calls. If so, why not get a much cheaper phone with your ipad. The same holds for the ipod touch.

Currently, receiving calls on Skype requires that the app be active.
There is a way to make that work when other apps are running. I do it all the time on my iPhone. Unfortunately, I can't discuss how I do it, here.

Do You Take Your Macbook Everywhere?

As a college student and young adult, i always find myself in situations when i yell, "I Wish I Had My MacBook For This!"
...But I never bring it along. Even though I own that cool black sling backpack by incase from the Apple Store.
So i'm asking, do you take it pretty much with you? If so, do you consider it a hassle and examples on such reasons you might need it?

I take it everywhere, every day. I teach in the mornings and late afternoons, and have a few hours each day to do my own work, but not enough time to go home, so I go to a coffee shop and pull out my macbook. I usually let it sleep while I travel around all day on buses and trams, and it's almost a year old and in great condition. I have a la robe sleeve and a timbuktu messenger bag, and the notebook rides in the bag with books and other things. I absolutely love it, and my only wish is that it was lighter. I'm waiting with bated breath for the ultraportable version!

No.
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.

Hello, SJMMMM.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would need clarification on what issue you are experiencing with your iPad to provide a better answer to your question. However, here is the some information that you may find helpful when an iPad needs to be serviced.

Your question makes no sense. You "connect" an iOS device to iTunes on your computer via WiFi or by using the supplied cable.

HT4623 How do you get your Ipad out of restore mode

How do you get your Ipad 3 out of restore mode? I ended up there by mistake.

Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

Verizon is using the Elipsis tablets to steal data from their customers. The only way to stop data from registering as cellular data is to pull the SIM card. This occurs with wifi enabled and cellular,dara disabled. If,you take your tablet to a Verizonstore they will upgrade your data plan to cover the overage and credit the upgrade. You will then have to remember to downgrade your plan or continue to pay for more data. Verizon, how would you feel if I walked into one of your stores and started filling my pockets with merchandise? If cought can I just give the product back and say "oops, sorry"

Today, my FCC complaint hit the same person working on the BBB complaint. Jimmie has been very nice and seems willing to work with this problem. We have been able to come to an agreement. I paid the purchase price for the phone and he returned my upgrade and unlimited data plan. This is what would have occurred if Verizon had given me correct information to begin with. I am happy with this result. He also brought quite a few instances concerning the handling of my transfer and upgrade that did not follow proper procedure. I am also confident that I would not have resolved this without complaining to BBB and or FCC. Verizon had no interest in solving the problem nor did they show any propensity to keeping a 20 year client. Even though this last CSR was very polite and helpful, his sole job is to respond to formal Federal and State complaints. He is required by law to address every complaint and report the reporting agency the agreed upon results - good or bad. Again, I suggest - If you are not getting the proper customer service, complain to someone outside of Verizon. Jimmie had not received any complaints registered with Verizon directly and I still have not had any contact with any other management representative that I was told would call.

Can you connect your Ipad to a projector using Bluetooth

Can you connect your Ipad to a projector using Bluetooth, if so what projectors, My situation is that I want to connect my Ipad3 wireless to a projector where there is no wifi available so the apple TV and airplay won't work.

No.
If you have an Apple TV, get an Apple Airport Express wireless router which is small enough to fit on your pocket. You can set up a wireless network without having to have internet for your iPad and Apple TV to be connected to.
Or use a wired connection.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Do you have any music stored on your iPad or is it all on your PC?
If the music is stored on your iPad, then double tap the home button, swipe (left to right motion) and you will see the volume/brightness controls/AirPlay. Tap on AirPlay and select ATV. Then go into the music app

You could adjust the mailnews.tcptimeout preference, as explained in the 2nd point in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Can_not_send_large_attachments this article]. Also, make sure there's no security program scanning outgoing mail attachments.
