Is it possible to use my ipad 4 as a second monitor through a USB connection.

perhaps, but my information was current. I had the same question and was looking for and answer and found it. So I responded in order to help others who found this question and were looking for an answer. This community is made more helpful and kept current by adding new answers with current information.
imobl... air display was a valid response for 2011 predating the question. Also using Monitor2go was valid in 2012. There were USB mirroring and as a 2nd display for an iPad options at the time the original question was asked.

  • How to use an iPad as a second monitor with Bluetooth?

    I know there are several apps that will allow me to use my iPad as a second monitor over my wifi connection. But is there a way to us it over blue tooth or with a special cord?
    Thanks!

    I use a projector as a second monitor for a desk top. When the shutter is closed it is hard to minimize or exit a window. I would like to use my iPad as an additional second monitor so I can tell what I am doing.

    Yes that's completely feasable.
    Actually there is another way to install apps ad-hock that i was not aware of (this does not require the devices to be attatched to the Mac with the SDK and project, it can use any computer or distribute via your LAN:
    iOS Developer Programme:Ad Hoc Distribution
    With Ad Hoc distribution you can share your application with up to 100 other iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch users. Through email or by posting it to a website or server, users can download and install your app.

    the Wifi storage options are interesting but it seems they only allow to read files from the device on the iPad but not transfer files to the storage device via WiFi.
    I'm looking for a possibility to use the iPad for photography while traveling, without the access to a computer.
    Shooting photo's in RAW format crates pretty big files that will fill up the iPad's memory pretty fast if you shoot a lot during a (let's say) month long trip.
    my idea was to use load the photo's to the iPad so i could view them and sort out any bad ones. then copy them over to the storage device so i can continue using my CF cards for shooting. I have an image thank for copying the photo's directly to the HDD but it would be so sweet to be able to check them on the iPad before hand.
    any suggestions?

    Check out pogo plug device, it allows you to upload camera roll via wifi.

  • How can I use my ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections.    The apple store clerk told me that I can't use airport express unless I also have a computer with me in the hotel.

    How can I use my Ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections?  The Apple store clerk told me that travel express won't work in my hotel unless I also have a computer.

    The issue with the Airport Express (or any of the Apple routers) is that you need the Airport Utility to configure it.  Airport Utility works on OSX and Windows, but not on the iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch.)  It will work, if you can preconfigure the Airport correctly ahead of time, but you'd be stuck if you did need to reconfigure while at the hotel.
    You can use most any other router that is configured with a web page, which means you have a chance of configuring with Safari on the iPad.  If you want something somewhat portable, I use a "travel router" made by D-Link. The current model is the DAP-1350.  Other companies make similar travel routers, but I have no experience with the others.

  • Use older 2008 iMac as second monitor for new iMac

    Hi all,
    I have one of these older machines that has no real purpose
      http://support.apple.com/kb/sp485
    but would serve me very well as a second monitor for my brand spanking new iMac.
    The specs seem to note that there is a video output - but I'm not seeing anything about video IN.
    Is it possible to use this older iMac as a monitor?

    that looks cool, and there is a free trial.
    I am not keen on using the WiFi to do this - my old iMac has firewire but the new one doesn't.
    Besides using the ludicrously expensive Thunderbolt <-> Firewire 800 convertor
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MD464ZM/A/thunderbolt-to-firewire-adapter
    is there any other way to create a wired connection between these devices? I'm not sure if there is such a thing as a USB <-> USB network connection.

  • Using a TV as a second monitor

    I'm trying to use a TV as a second monitor (for watching movies) with Windows through Boot Camp (netflix instant play isn't support in Mac yet). When I plug in the mini-DVI adapter with the yellow video cable, my screen goes blank for a moment and comes back on but nothing happens on the TV. I've tried updating the nVidia and ATI drivers in Windows, but they won't install properly. My System Profiler says I'm running Intel GMA x3100 graphics. I've tried what I can think of and what I've read. Can anyone offer advice?

  • Is it possible to use two External HD to back up through time machine

    when I go to System preferences and then select disk I am given three options
    2 external HD's and time machine, I am currently not using Time Capsule
    can I choose the 2 external HD's so one backs up the other or is this only possible to use an external HD when using the time capsule option which I assume is the wireless back up option for apple using wifi, this backs up everything linked to it I assume, my iphone, ipad, macbook and imac (if i chose to go down that route which seems like the place to go?)

  • 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.

  • How do I use my iPad as a second screen with my macbook pro?

    I've got splashtop streamer for my ipad. In school my computer teacher has two monitors and she is able to drag stuff from one screen to the other. If i was streaming to my ipad, how could i use it as a second screen? and how could I do this with any old monitor?
    BTW if you dont know splashtop streamer, it is a software that lets you stream content from a computer or laptop to a wireless device, such as an iPad.

    Splashtop only has the ability to mirror your Mac's single screen. It does not let your iPad work as a second screen.
    You need an app that is designed to turn your iPad into a real second monitor.
    I use Air Display to move all of my pallets to one screen when I am working with my graphics programs on my Mac. I keep my iPad connected to my iMac to keep it charged while I am using my iPad in this manner.
