Is there a way to use an iPad as an external micrpohone for my imac?

The internal mic on my iMac is dead (and I don't feel like paying a lot for opening in up and stuff), but external should work (I have tested with input from an iPod). So can I get around the problem by some how using my iPad as an external mic? I have found no way of doing this so far.

not as far as I know
at least not out of the box if some thirdparty app can let you I can't say for sure

    Or you can use home sharing for free, but it will only allow you to play movies and music from itunes.
    Or you can use any remote desktop software

  • Is there a way to use multiple canvas tags with the ToolKit for CreateJS for Flash in one HTML5 doc?

    Hey everyone, I was wondering if someone could help point me in the right direction for solving this. I have created 5 short animations using Flash and when I published each ".fla " (with Toolkit for CreateJS extension) I get 5 different html5 files with their own respective javascripts. Is there a way to get all those canvas tags in one html5 file and still have it work. I'd love a hint on where to begin so I can begin researching the solution.
    Thanks!

    Why do you think that one will be over written?
    You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like to one computer.  Each is different and will only sync what you select.

  • Is there a way to use the eMac as an external monitor

    I haven't used my Emac for awhile, but my 17" powerbook is now having a serious display problem and I can't even see the log-in screen. I want to use the Emac as an external monitor or at least have sharing between the two machines. They are both using 10.4.11. What do I need to do to connect them?

    You need to connect them via ethernet or wirelessly, plus a product such as ScreenRecycler. Conventional video in isn't available on most Macs.

  • Is there a way to use the iPad as a handwriting device on a mac

    I am wondering if the iPad can be used as a handwriting peripheral for a MacBook Pro. I have been looking into the Bamboo tablets and really can't afford to spend $50-$150 on one. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

    After a little bit research I found the answer I was seeking. Air Display.

  • Is there a way to use music from multiple users itunes libraries on one iMac for a slideshow in Aperture?

    I am trying to put together a slide show for a trip my wife and I took to England. I would like to be able to use music from both our itunes libraries in the slide show. I am using Aperture to create the slide show since it seems to be more versatile than iPhoto for this. Only trouble is that when I log into my username on the iMac I only see my iTunes library and similar when logging into her username. We have different music but would like to use some from each library in the slide show.

    You can only use one library at a time in an Aperture slideshow, so I'd suggest to simply collect the audio that you want to use in a folder (export the songs from both iTunes Libraries) and then import this folder to Aperture. Now you have a project containing the audio files; you will see it in the Aperture Audio section of the audio Browser, right above the iTunes section.
    You can use the Apperture audio just like the audio in iTunes to drag to the timeline of your slideshow.

  • Can I use my iPad as an external monitor for MBA?

    I have a MBA"13 (latest edition) and New iPad (3-d Gen), so I'm wondering: is it possible to get extra working space for my Mac using cables and adapters or wireless solutions (Apple TV 2-d Gen)?

    No. There are some apps that allow you to control the laptop remotely from an iPad, however, but that doesn't sound like what you need.

  • Is there a way to use the battery on my ipad to extend the talk time on my iphone?

    Is there any way to use the ipad battery to extend the talk time on my iphone?

    I don't understand what you are asking. Do you mean connecting the iPad to the iPhone with a double-ended dock connector cable to transfer the battery energy to the iPhone?
    If that's what you mean, I'm pretty sure that's impossible.

  • Is there any way to use microsoft outlook 2010 on ipad? Or is there apple app or program that will copy over all of the existing structure, folders, etc... and sync?

    I recently received a gift of a new ipad. Unfortunately I can't really switch from my Windows lap top until I figure out a way to use the ipad for my business emails which I use Outlook 2010 for. There are a singnificant amount of folders and history, with various attachments, that I have to have access to and I have been unable to find a way to move all of this over to the ipad. I use Yahoo mail for my primary mail server and can get the Yahoo mail on the ipad with no problem. But I do not have the full folder structure set up on Yahoo that I have on Outlook 2010 and to do so would be very time consuming...and I'm note even sure how I could move all the folders back to Yahoo and all the emails contained in them, many of which have been long deleted form Yahoo, back to Yahoo. Ideally I would just install Outlook 2010 on ipad and export all the files over. But there doesn't seem to be any Outlook 2010 program for ipad...if there is, please tell me about it. Otherwise, I need a relatively quick alternative that will not force me to recreate my entire Outlook 2010 folder structure and copy emails over folder by folder. If anyone has had the same issues, and was able to solve them, I would very much appreciate knowing how to do this. I like the ipad and want to use it for my main platform. Thanks

  • Is there a way of using a mail merge function while on the iphone or ipad, i wish to email a "Word style, ot TXT" document to 250 of my contacts

    Is there a way of using a mail merge function while on the iphone or ipad, i wish to email a "Word style, ot TXT" document to 250 of my contacts, I have tried downloading my contacts to my PC's outlook but only 1 contact comes across at a time despite the fact that Icloud says downloading namedperson + 249 other contacts to a CSV file

    Hi everyone!
    Looking also for an app that allows me to merge email and send them out to each recipient individually. Apparently that's not possible yet. Here's what the guys at RedbitsApps told me about Group Email capabilities: 
    "The current version of the app relies on the device operating system to send the emails. For this reason, sending individual email instead of a single email to multiple recipients is not possible. Apple doesn't allow apps to send single emails to many recipients easily. We may use a custom sending software in a future version."
    Let's keep looking guys... 

  • Is there a way to use proper mainland chinese characters on an ipad instead of the apple variants?

    I have been learning Chinese at University, and I bought an iPad to help my studies and I have found that Apple for the international keyboard has variants for many different chinese characters. Why is this and is there a way to use the chinese characters that 1.6 billn people use rather than the Apple variants? Will Apple be addressing this at all?

    No, The simple and traditional are fine, but when typing in simplified there choices for say, 将 or 骨 are different from both Simplified and Traditional entirely. If I had copied Apple's characters in tests I would have lost grades. I've never seen it happen on another operating system and unfortunatley Microsoft beats Apple in this field; hence why I call them Apple variants. I'm not the only one who has see this problem. The only way to get what I would call authentic chinese characters is with the method that is stated above. I found this solution in the thread titled "Chinese characters misrepresented". There are screen shots there too. I would love to find out how/why Apple chose this system for chinese.

    Is there any way to connect an ipad to a ethernet  cord or connect with out using wi fi?  Thank  you

    The closest you can come, without having a 3G iPad is to have a cellular mobile hotspot like the Mifi or such device, use that to get to wifi, or to tether it to a cell phone.
