Is there a way to wake an ipad up by detecting motion with the front camera?

I am using the iPad for an HMI Display To control a machine and want it to be able to wake up from sleep just by detecting motion with the front camera rather than having to push any buttons on the iPad, is this even possible?

No apple store, or Best Buy or anything like that.  Again, she lives in a very remote area.   The closest stores are roughly 6 hours away.   I suppose she can go to a friends house that has a computer but then she is setting up her ipad on someone else's computer.    Since she's been able to use the thing out of the box (and without a computer) for over a year, we were just hoping to this without the need of a computer.   I guess we will just have to wait for her next visit to us in the city.  
Thanks.

  • Is there a way of shifting purchases from one account to another with the same billing information, so that I don't lose purchases made by my iPhone when I sync?

    The AOL address I was using for my iTunes account has been deleted due to me not signing in for awhile and I'm afraid that I will lose all of my purchases made from my iphone when I sync it into iTunes for a much needed update and so that I can (hopefully) transfer its data to my new iPhone 4...
    The only time I have synced my current iPhone was when I activated it but since then I have not been able to sync with my computer and now have a new one.
    Sorry about the garbled way this is written but I desperately need help:
    1, Is there a way of shifting purchases from one account to another with the same billing information?
    Or
    2, is there a way of recovering my old account and changing the details?
    Any other help is greatly appreciated
    Thom

    You don't need to access your e-mail account, just get into your Apple account and change the e-mail address. If you can't access your Apple account, then you have a bigger issue to contend with.

    Is there any way to sync my lotus notes calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my MacBook Pro?

    You would need to have enabled iCloud on your MBP. Your question indicated you did not.
    Its serial number is useful for establishing ownership should the MBP be recovered. File a police report.

  • Is there any way to have an ipad wifi 3G but not use the 3G (therefore avoiding the extra data plan costs) and just use the wifi?

    i am looking to buy an ipad 2 or the new ipad (preferably 32gb) but dont want to buy the 3G version as i have unlimited data usage in my mobile phone plan, i know the wifi only ipad is generally cheaper, but i was wondering if there was a way to buy the ipad with 3G capabilities but not use the 3G and avoid the cost of paying the extra unnecessary data plan?

  • Is there a way to use an ethernet cable and cinema display with the new Macbook Air

  • Is there a way to predict which video projectors will not work with the 2012 MacBook Air using the Mini-display to VGA adapter?

    I recently upgraded from a 2011 MBA to a 2012 MBA due to the larger capacity SSD.  The 2011 MBA running Lion and Mountain Lion worked with every video projector for lectures.  The new 2012 MBA is hit or miss with video projectors.  It is not an adapter problem.  I have multiple Apple mini-display to VGA adapters with the latest firmware.  They all work just fine with the 2011 MBA. Re-starting the 2012 MBA with the adapter and projector connected has not helped.   
    It it not acceptable to have a laptop that works with projectors some of the time.  Apple is aware of the problem.  Is the only choice to go back to the 2011 MBA? 
    RC 

    I installed 10.8.2 update today with my 2012 MBA.  The details of the update include:  Resolves a video issue with some VGA projectors when connected to certain Mac notebooks.
    I tried using the MBA with a video projector and it found the correct resolution and connected with the projector automatically.  Using detect displays in the disoplay preference pane wasn't even necessary. 
    I hope this is the fix I have been waiting for with the 2012 MBA.
    Thank you Apple.

  • Is there a way to print from ipad 4 to a non AirPrint printer? I have a Canon Pixma MP 620 wifi which works fine with my PC but I don't want to buy a new printer. Is there an app for this or adaptors which could work?   thank, Ric

    Printopia is another option but be aware that since these solutions effectively act as a print server and AirPrint receiver, they require a computer to be running on the same WiFi network.
    Canon also has a couple of apps in the App Store that might facilitate this on non-AirPrint printers. Check out...

  • Is there a way to display multiple iPad screens on the same television screen simultaneously?

    Is there a way to display multiple iPad screens on the same television set concurrently?  The idea is to let multiple individuals do something on their iPads in a timed window and then display the results of each iPad users answer concurrently on te same television.

    Devices that display two, four, or even eight video signals on a single monitor are available in the video security market. Maybe you could find something there that would do what you want. A quick search on "security tv screen multiplexor" (without the quotes) yielded millions of pages; several on the first page looked promising if you don't mind composite video.

  • Is there a way to get an iPad to play one audio track and stop.

    Is there a way to get an iPad to play one audio track and stop.
    I work in education and particularly music. Teachers are looking to create a playlist of selected track but only want the selected track to play then stop.
    This allows them to talk to the class during presentation and not worry about having to stop playback mid discussion.
    I've been successful doing this from appleTVs homeshared to a library by unchecking songs in the playlist. But It would be useful to instructors who have there own media on their device.

    The only way to stop after a song is to create a playlist consisting of only that song.

    Is there a way to force my iPad to shut down? I "slid" to turn off three hours ago. The "wheel" is still spinning in the middle of the screen.

    Yeah, hold down the top Sleep button and the Home button simultaneously.  Continue to hold until the screen goes blank and the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the red slider midway through this process, just keep holding both buttons down until the Apple logo appears -- it takes about 8-10 seconds.  That should do a soft reset and fix your problem.

  • HT4437 is there a way to connect my ipad with airplay to more than one airplay enabled speaker? at the moment it allows me to connect to only one?

    is there a way to connect my ipad using airplay to more than one airplay enabled speaker?  when i tap the airplay icon on my ipad i see the list of all the speakers in each room but i can only connect to one at a time. Itunes, on my laptop, allows me to connec to all of them at the same time but Music on my ipad allows me to choose only one speaker at a time. Can several be connected at the same time using Music on Ipad or iphone?

    That's great, but not what we want to do. I've been looking at all the boards for a solution to this and, you are correct. There isn't one - at least not one native to iOS. What I think EricB2 would like, as well as many of us, is the ability to take any audio stream (pandora, tune-in radio, etc.) and stream directly to multiple airplay devices from our iPads and iPhones without having to use the computer. Just walk into the house from the car, hit a button on the iDevice and start listening to the same stream we were listening to in the car on all of our home speakers. I know, this is like science fiction.  My own opinion is that it would cut into Apples lucrative iTunes business model and really isn't in their best interest, so I don't think it will be happening anytime soon. Bottom line is if you want to use your Apple devices for whole house streaming, you need a computer and music from iTunes($$). Otherwise it's $$ out of Apples pocket.
