Looking for best application and stylus for iPad

I am looking to download an application for an ipad to use with a stylus, but don't know which application or stylus is best. Please share your opinion on the best application and stylus for taking handwritten notes.

Procreate is the only good reason to own an iPad, it has support for the top three stylus. However iOS7 has broken the Bluetooth Bridge that Pogo Connect, Wacom and Jot need to give pressure sensitive support. Procreate hardly works now.. except..you want to finger paint.
But when it is fixed I would suggest buying the Pogo Connect and a set of nibs and if I had only one App to use it with I'd use Procreate. It's vastly superior to many desktop Apps too.
However, Apple relying on third party Stylus support only makes my MS Surface Pro look like where I'll be spending my cash on the next upgrade cycle. Why Apple has not come out with an iPad Pro is a stunning insult.

Looking for iPad App for displaying photos via a projector

I'm looking for an App that will allow me to display photos using a projector yet permit manual advancing through the slides.
The included Photo app only works with the projector when in slideshow mode. As soon as I try to manually advance a photo the projector output stops.
I've seen references to Keynote but I'd rather not have to import 'x' number of photos into Keynote to be able to display them. I'm not convinced Keynote will do what I want anyway.
There's got to be an app out there somewhere that does this. Isn't there?
Thanks.

Locking the iPad so that a user can't exit an app isn't possible for any developer to implement, since the developer kit doesn't provide that sort of access to the low-level routines in iOS. The only way to lock into a single app is to use a case/frame that covers the Home button (and turn off the gesture support in the settings in iOS 5). A number of companies make kiosk mounts for this purpose.

Web design company looking for iPad app to display my portfolio at a trade show

I run a small web development business and have my first trade show coming up. I'll have a booth setup and was hoping to have my iPad out on the table for people to pick up and scroll through my portoflio (ie web designs, logo concepts, etc.). I've seen this app:
Portfolio for iPad
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/portfolio-for-ipad/id384210950?mt=8
which looks great but I was wondering if anyone else had other options. I like the idea that the above app allows you to lock the device so that users can only scroll through the portfolio and need a PIN to do anything else.
I don't have much experience with the iPad as I just got it and I don't do any app development. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Why does iTunes Looking for iPad fail?

In iTunes when I click on Apps for my iPad listed under DEVICES and then select an app (usually FileMaker Go) and try to drag one of the app's files to the iMac desktop, I will get that iTunes is "Looking fo iPad" and then after a few seconds the iPad will disappear from the iTunes DEVICES list. After several times quit and launching iTunes and trying again, I will be able to get it to work FINALLY. I am accessing the iPad and my iPhone as well via wifi when I do this. I don't do this kind of operation nearly as often with my iPhone, but have had the same problem with it as well. I have connected the devices via usb, clicked on summary for the device, and unchecked and checked "Sync with this iPad (or iPhone depending) over Wi-Fi. That has not solved the problem. I am on Mac OS 10.8, iTunes 10, iOS 5.1.1 on both i-devices.

I just installed iTunes 10.7 and got a new router in case that was the problem. Still these devices just appear and disappear from itunes willy-nilly. Often the disappear when trying to move data to the idevice's app (mainly fm go), I'll get the message "Looking for iPhone" or iPad and then it will disappear from the iTunes DEVICES list. I guess no one else is having the problem as I have had no comments from any one in the community and I should just give up on this discussion.

Looking for ipad word processor

I recently purchased an ipad 2 (32G AT&T version) and had a question about word processors. I am looking for a word processor for the ipad that will open, compose and save documents in ODF and all the major Word formats. Something like Bean which I use a lot on my MacBook Pro . I have also used Pages on my MacBook Pro and installed it on my ipad and it is great for some things but will not open ODF docs and will not save in all Word formats. I also installed GoodReader on the ipad which opens almost everything but it seems I cannot compose a document using GoodReader (maybe I have the wrong version--don’t know). I looked at QuickOffice but I have no use for the presentation and spreadsheet apps that come with it and would rather not load the ipad with too many things. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I am sorry to tell you. I had done a lot of searches in different search engine, the answer is no. There is not an App support ODF edition for iPad.
I got another news which Google may promot the new Google Document to support ODF in future, even through this is a rumor, but you may keep an eye on it. And you would be able to edit ODF online through Google Document.
Finger cross.

Looking for iPad for quadriplegic

My dad (64 years old) was in a car accident last year and became paralyzed- he has to live in a facility and the people that care for him have a lot going on and don't always have time to help him with the things he wants to do. I thought getting him an ipad might help give him some independence- for example he really misses reading books but the aides at the nursing home can't sit next to him and turn the pages, there are just too many residents- so he could either download books to the iPad or listen to them on itunes. Due to medical bills we don't have much extra money so I'm wondering if anybody has suggestions about which iPad would be the cheapest but still able to perform hands free/voice commands, run face time so he could call us, and listen to music- I think those would be the 3 moat important things to him.
Thank you so much in advance for your suggestions and help!

Sorry to hear about your dad. Having that happen is bad at anytime but it gets even more difficult to rehab as we get older. Looking to get him more independence is a good thing it will help not only his physical condition but also his mental health.
You need to be realistic in this and realize you are not going to get an out-of-the-box solution and whatever you can come up with is going to take time. But that's OK the process is as helpful as the result.
I recommend you spend some time researching what is available and what others in your situation have come up with. There are a lot of good resources you can start with Apple OSX Based Accessible Computing - Quadriplegic and Paraplegic ... , 9 Surprising Things Quadriplegics can do with an iPhone or ... and Accessing the iPad: Mouthsticks, Head Pointers, and .... There are many more.
Also see if the facility has any information or if there is a local support group you can contact. Finally if there are any colleges or universities near you they might be a good source of information. They may even being working on this problem and be able to offer some help.
I'd resist the urge to run out and get something until you've had a chance to do a bit of research. BTW does your father have any mobility at all in his upper body? Even small amounts of movement ill make this all easier.
Good luck, be prepared for a long journey and try to look at even the littlest of success as major accomplishments.

I'm looking for iPad backup to windows software reviews

I'm looking for software that will run on windows that will backup/restore reliably :
iPad2 / iPhone 5
1. apps.
2. photoes / movies.
3. Settings.
4. Documents.
5. Contacts
6. iBooks
Thank you,
Docfxit

I realize iTunes is available for partial backups.
I do sync with iTunes. I don't like iTunes.
1. I have 4 different devices I need to backup up. iTunes lets you have one account sync'ed to one PC.
2. iTunes doesn't backup everything.
3. iTunes fails sometimes and you loose what you have sync'ed. I would like backup software that is more reliable.
Thanks,
Docfxit

Still looking for ipad

can the tracking devic be move of the conrol panel on the ipad

If the system reset doesn't work, here are a couple of other things that you can try.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again.

Look & Feel Best Practices and skeleton issue

Hello,
here are my 2 questions :
- what is the best way to create a custom look and feel ? Is it to duplicate the bighorn look and feel (.laf + skin + skeleton) ?
- I want to customize the help button behaviour and add a javascript function on the onclick event. I have found that the help button is generated by the abstractbutton.jsp. The line
<skeleton:control name="a" presentationContext="${abstractbuttonpc}" href="${param.href}" onclick="${param.onclick}">
makes me think that an onclick event can be set. But I don't know how to set this 'param.onclick'.
Regards,
Thomas

Hi Thomas
1. YES, use Bighorn as template to create your own Custom Look and Feel. Do not use any old look and feels like Default, Classic etc in WLP 10.3.1. Because the latest Releast WLP 10.3.2 uses only Bighorn based look and feels.
2. Do not copy all the files from Bighorn look and feel. Refer the bottom Thread for details on creating custom look and feel and modify only files that you want. Say you want to modify header or footer or just portlet titlebars etc. So to modify header or footer, in your custom look and feel skeletons folder, you modify code in only head.jsp or header.jsp. For example changing portlet titlebar or background etc, you modify css elements in custom.css file.
Heres the thread that has some useful information and linke: Creating Header and Footers in Weblogic Portal 10

Looking for MS Excel & Word compatible iPad Apps

I'm looking for iPad apps for Excel and Word that I can transfer to my iMac and work on using MS Office. Any recommendations?

There are a number of apps that are compatible with Office documents. Apple makes iOS versions of their own iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) that are available free if you purchase a new iOS device and that can be purchased separately for older devices. There are also 3rd party combined suites that cost less than the separate Apple apps. Ones often recommended include Documents 2 Go, Quickoffice and Office2 HD.
If you can accept needing a network connection whenever you want to use the apps and have an Office 365 subscription, Microsoft has just released their Office Mobile app, though it has significant limitations. Or a server-based solution such as CloudOn might be an option for you.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.
Regards.

Looking for photo frame with lots of features

Look for ipad photo frame app. One that will let me display pics from various sources, like facebook, my servers in the home, flickr.
Thanks

I tried many apps, but I narrowed it down to... Iphonso.com Air Frame.
It lets you view your facebook photos or friends', flickr via a bunch of categories, or enter tags. It includes your local photos.
It does not have the ability yet to to include your network shares, but I am hoping they include this in the next version.
So now looking at pics that are being streamed in from remote site, and at the same time listening to music that is also streamed in (via Home Sharing). Bliss.
Thanks for all your help

I am looking for an application that would allow me to open a word doc, and take notes in the .doc using a stylus pen. I'd then like to convert those notes to text, and then be able to copy / paste those notes into an email. Does this app exist?

It seems like we were doing these same types of things with Palm Pilots years ago, one would think this would work with iPads?

I don't believe it will open a Word document, but Writepad allows for handwritten conversion of notes to text and then to email. Might help you some of the way...
