Is there virus protection for the iPad

Is there virus protection for the iPad2, and if not will there be any in the near future.

Virus protection will be available as soon as someone writes the first Virus for iOS.

There are no viruses for iOS currently.
iOS employs security features built into it-mainly sand boxing.
You can not download apps from the Internet, apps cannot make changes to the core system or system wide, apps can access data inside the app itself and a very limited set outside itself.
Sand boxing also prevents AV software from working in iOS.
You can't scan the device from the AV software because it can't access the other apps or their data.

HT2311 Is there a virus protection for the apple iPad and iPad Air and iPhone 5 that we need to use for security?

Is there a virus protection for the apple iPads including the iPad Air and the iPhone 5, and if there is, how do we download it into our apple products? With everything that is going on it seems like I'm having more problems with freezing and crashing, getting kicked off my sites more often then ever! Is there a way to stop this?

There is no known malware capable of infecting an iOS device, unless it has been jailbroken. Due to the security that prevents malware, real anti-virus software on iOS is not possible, so none exists.
As to the problem, I'm unclear on exactly what you're seeing. What exactly does it mean to get "kicked off your sites?"

Does anyone know of any security protection for the IPad?

Yes, first get a good case for it to protect it from the elements, dropping, etc.
Next, be sure to set up your free Find My iPad application for it in case it is lost or stolen.
When carrying it around with you keep your eye on it at all times and beware of letting others walk away with it. They are very popular and stolen frequently.
P.S. There are no iOS viruses, malware, etc. so no antivirus, antispyware, etc. apps are available.

IS THERE NORTON PRODUCTS FOR THE IPAD

is there a norton product for the ipad 3

And if there was a Norton anti-virus app for the iPad and it was like the Norton anti-virus app for Mac computers, it would corrupt your iPad.

Do I need to install virus protection for the windows portion of the partitioned hard drive on the MacBook Pro?

You are running Windows, so yes. I like Microsoft's built in protection and how 8.1 is 'hardened' but I also install Malwarebytes. I will not use Kaspersky anymore. But you do need something. And 8.1 is more secure than prior versions definitely but there were some major zero-day security updates on this month's "Patch Tuesday."
The forum for you is "Boot Camp" and this if you look above: Communities / Desktop / Mac Pro is not for MacBook Pro

Is there virus protection on my ipad

Is there virus protection on my ipad?

Amazon does not run its business on iPads. The fact that a virus is rumored to have been used to hack Amazon is not relevant to a discussion or whether there are viruses that affect unjailbroken iPads. There are currently no know viruses that affect unhacked iOS devices.
The Blackhole virus didn't "hack Amazon", by the way. It uses an email that is faked to look like it came from Amazon.
I'd say you should stop worrying but I doubt you will.

Is there an app for the ipad that will allow you to access your mac.

Is there an app for the ipad that will allow you to access your mac via wifi or cell network.

Yep, two of the most popular apps are "LogMeIn Ignition" and "iTeleport." Check them out, they'll both set you back by about 30$ though.

Is there an App for the iPad that will show my GPS position on a world map, even if I'm at sea?

There is no mobile data connection required to use GPS on land or sea. Once again your issue is the availability of downloadable maps/charts for the areas you will be traveling.
Sorry, but you can't install an app like NAVIGON on an iPad without 3G cellular data connection:
copied from NAVIGON app:
...can be installed on any iPhone3GS, iPhone4, iPhone4S, iPhone5 or iPad device (the navigation function is only available on the iPad WiFi+3G)
Can I navigate with my mobile phone?
Answer:In principle yes. For mobile phones there are both Onboardnavigation solutions and Offboardnavigation solutions.
The following requirements must be fulfilled:
•     The software must support the mobile phone. NAVIGON software
      always comes with a compatibility list. The software is guaranteed
      to work only for the mobile phones on this list.
•     The mobile phone must have a GPS receiver. Many new mobile
       phones come with a built-in GPS receiver. Otherwise you can use
       an external GPS receiver which is connected to the mobile phone
       by cable or Bluetooth.
•     It should be noted that an offboard solution incurs costs for using
      the mobile phone network to communicate with the provider's server.

I used my iPhone maps it works very well. Is there an application for the iPad that could be used on a boat?

Indeed :-)
This forum is riddled with questions by users that cannot get their computer to do what they want, *despite* the fact they use a very precise and (usually) unambiguous method of telling it want they want it to do -- a programming language. Making it comprehend *natural* language is, by any way of measuring, a number of degrees more difficult.
That said: in what way would a computer program (advanced or "dumb") be able to help the OP? Spell check is one -- but it's not a *fact* that anything written *badly* equals nonsense. In politics, for example, the most eloquent speakers still manage to make a fool of themselves :D The same goes for "grammar". Of course, bad grammar is more difficult to understand -- EVEN for a human. So a computer is bound to fail on that as well.
Fact checking then? I usually can't even find what I want in one go with Almighty Google (which seems to turn things around: if it cannot find "enough" web pages with the exact phrase you asked it, it automatically assumes you are interested in synonyms, antonyms, homonyms, and other *unrelated* stuff! Yeah THANK you but I want to find what I typed in!)
A good starting point would be to define in more detail what this hypothetical software *ought* to do -- that needs to be a bit more concrete than "I want it to do my job for me."

Is there a camera for the iPad 1?

Is there a camera for the iPad 1?

There is a camera in the original iPAD but it takes photos from inside so you can transfer images from aps to the albums. Some of the less sophisticated art apps have you hold down the start key and the bottom simultaneously. It will flash and maybe save what you drew or painted. Never a sure bet. I wondered about that camera myself but seriously how awkward will it be taking a picture with this thing? Get an iPhone. You 'll love it. Jury is out on MacBook Pro.
Do you have issues with sound on iPAd I cannot hear anything on it or my Mac.

Hi, I recently purchased an IPad Air. I have a Dell PC that has the Verizon. Security Suite. Do I need to have virus/malware protection for the IPad Air? Thanks.

Hi, I recently purchased an IPad air. Do I need to place virus protection software for it? I also have a Dell PC that has the Verizon Security Suite. Thanks for your info. Jim

You do not need anti virus for the iPad. The ipad only installs things from the App Store and those apps are vetted. In addition, the operating system of the ipad isn't the same as PC's or Macs so common viruses don't run on them.
The only thing you need to be aware of is protecting your info....Go to a bad site and enter your info and you're just as vulnerable as you would be on a computer. So the device isn't vulnerable to anything but user actions.

Is there an app for the iPad that is similar to android's swype program?

Is there an app for the iPad2 that is similar to Android's swype program?

You're right, thanks. Nuance seems to be doing this for a number of apps; Noterize similarly has been removed after being purchased by Nuance. Time will tell where they go with all the technology they've purchased.
Regards.
