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.

I'm looking for a very robust Contacts/calendar app. Does anyone Know of one?

I'm looking for a very robust Contacts/calendar app. Does anyone Know of one?

Have you had the opportunity to use a Palm PDA. It's Contacts/Calendar has many features that the built in apps do not address. e.g significant dates can be set to remind every week, month, or year without having to enter them manually. It can set up categories that can tie events/contacts together and can be sorted in different ways and searched in those ways. This is just a sample of its functionality.

I am a US resident but spend several months each year at my house in England. Is it possible for me to download UK iPad apps from the iTunes Store? Right now they seem to be restricted. Can I set up an alternate iTunes account using a UK credit card?

When you go to Starbucks, you'll need to first go to Settings on your iPad and choose Network. You'll see ATTWIFI as one of the available networks. When you click on that to select it, you should be immediately sent to AT&T's sign in page. You just need to check the box that says you agree to their terms and conditions and then hit the Connect button and you'll be online. One warning, however. If your Starbucks is anything like those in Manhattan, be prepared for really slow wifi. It can be a real pain waiting for pages to load sometimes.

Sorting and rearranging bookmarks - Firefox (and working with bookmarks) http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sorting_and_rearranging_bookmarks_-_Firefox   
*SortPlaces sorts ALL of your bookmarks in 3-6 seconds, suggest not doing automatic sorting https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sortplaces/
*Go Parent Folder locate the Bookmark folder for a Bookmark in Bookmarks search results https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/go-parent-folder/

After installing "Show Parent Folder" add the "Parent folder" column by double-clicking on any column header in the Library List, you cannot sort on the "Parent folder": column, and you should go to the extension's options and turn on "Show folder hierarchy".

Looking for All-In-One Sudoku Game App for iPad?

Bare with me... I'm going to learn now if this is an appropriate question here and if not where to go that would be appropriate?
I'm looking for a great iPad Sudoku game app that offers a variety of different format variations using numbers 1-9, different colors, and different shapes--that sort of thing...instead of just the common numbers. I'm not concerned about scoring the game or tracking time or the leaderboard stuff.
I've looked and found a gillion to consider including Google and looked at some for more detail but so far have found none...and maybe none exist or maybe I'll have to settle for two or three separate Sudoku games to fullfill what I'm after?
So maybe someone in the community knows of just the Sudoku app I'm looking for?
Thank you.

A quick Google search provided the following: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sudoku-hd-for-ipad/id364909963?mt=8
I don't know if it offers exactly what you want, but you can check the App Store, or you can go to Google and type the following in your search bar: apple sodoku app ipad
Several options will come up.

Excel & Word on Ipad

Hi there i am just about to receive my first ever Ipad & just working out what apps i need etc.
My question is would i need to download a app in order to open & edit Excel & Word files or will the Ipad automatically open them? I do currently use MobileMe where i have a fair few Excel Files which i may need to edit on the go etc. If i do need an app to open these files do Excel & Word have their own apps like Pages & Numbers or if not what is the best app out there where i can open & edit office files.
Would also need to open PDF's so same question as above will the Ipad open them if not what app is required.
Regards
Andy

These files will open and can be viewed on the iPad as mail attachments. You do not need a third party app to open and view them. From the Apple iPad technical specs web site...
Viewable document types: .jpg, .tiff, .gif (images); .doc and .docx (Microsoft Word); .htm and .html (web pages); .key (Keynote); .numbers (Numbers); .pages (Pages); .pdf (Preview and Adobe Acrobat); .ppt and .pptx (Microsoft PowerPoint); .txt (text); .rtf (rich text format); .vcf (contact information); .xls and .xlsx (Microsoft Excel)
Here is the link to the site.
http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/
However, you will need apps to edit these files as they can not be edited with any preinstalled apps that are on the iPad when you buy it. You mentioned Pages and Numbers which are available for the iPad and there others as well in the App Store. Documents to Go will open and edit the complete MS Office suite. iAnnotate and others available for pdf files. Apple's own iBooks will open and save pdf files and iBooks is free in the App Store.
There are a variety of apps that will open, edit and save these files. Google can be your friend right now before your iPad arrives so start searching!

Looking for a specific Iphone alarm clock app

Hello,
I have been looking on the apple store for an app that I came across a while a go. It's an alarm clock app with a calculator for morning tasks, so it will ask the user how many tasks and how long each task is going to need, and then it will calculate the total time the user need in the morning. It also has an alarm clock to wake you up according to the time calculator. If you have 5 tasks:
brush up ---------------------------10 min
prepare breakfast----------------10 min
eat breakfast-----------------------5 min
read news---------------------------5 min
driving to school--------------------40 min
the total time is 1 hr 10 min. Then you enter the time school starts, 8am for example. The alarm clock will wake the user up at 6:50am in the morning on that day.
Does anyone have this app and would like to share the name of the app with me? I have been desperately looking for it and regreted not saving it to my wishlist on the first time.
Many thanks to the apple community!!!

1password is FREE for a limited time, and it allows you to store login info and notes(you can use as journal) and then lock the application with a passcode. And lockbox does about the same thing, it's free too.

Am looking for a nascar in car radio app? anyone know what it is calledor where I can get?

Anyone know what app allows me tolisten to nascar in car radio?

Tried to delete it but was told could not because it was in use. Went to get info and found that it was listed as an email attachment with a date of Apr 18, 2010.
Open your Mail. Move the file to the Trash. Quit Mail. Now empty the Trash.
When you can't empty the trash when you see the "file is in use" dialog, you need to quit the app that the file is associated with, then empty the Trash.
I was looking for images in All Images that I didn't need and could delete.
Be careful of deleting images. They might be icons associated with certain apps like iChat or PhotoBooth.
The file size is 4kb.
Most system icons are about 4kb in size.
I don't think this is malware related.

Looking for on advise on a camera apps

Looking for the best camera app for an iphone4

Though this is clearly a personal opinion based question left much too broad, I will give you my list of most used camera apps:
1. Apple's Native Camera App
2. Instagram
3. Photovine
I have tried Camera+ and some other photo apps that simply took up too much of my time. I prefer a much more straighforward method of shooting and sharing through apps #2 and #3.
Happy shooting!

I am looking for a excel iPad app that doesnt require an internet connection once i have downloaded it?

Thanks

Hi Jimhno,
"Numbers" is the App you'll need.
It's not a free Apps but it will do the job and the beauty of this gem is the synchronisation with iCloud if you require to work on any other given devices (iPhones, mac, iMac)

Looking for a "kid mode" on iPad Mini

I have an iPad Mini that I purchased for my work. When I get home at the end of the day, I'd like to be able to hand it over to my 4 year old to let him play some educational games or watch kid shows on Netflix. However, I don't want him to be able to go into the web browser, look at my calendar, email, Google Drive, etc. (Really, I don't need my 4 year old rearranging my schedule.) I've read about many apps that will lock down a folder with a password. However, that takes too much time when I'm using the iPad for work, because I would have to continuously unlock and open up that folder to get to my work stuff. I would prefer something like "Restricted Mode" in the Settings, but I'd like it to also restrict specific apps, like Google Drive. This lets me leave the iPad in unrestricted mode - without the constant passwords, while I'm working, and lets me put it into a password protected mode, while the little one has the iPad. Is there an app or a setting that does something like this (again, it needs to block specific apps, like Google Drive)? Another option would be something that allows multiple users with different home screens and settings.

The short and simple answer to your question is that there is no way to lockdown specific apps on the iPad. You are limited to using whatever restrictions are available in the settings to block whatever you can block in there. Using restrictions requires a password to get into and out of it as well.
There is no setting for multiple users either on the iPad. It wasn't designed for multiple users and it still does not allow for multiple user accounts. Leave feedback with Apple if you like.

Looking for Chapter Tool Beta or other app to create enhanced podcasts

Hi all. I am looking at creating enhanced podcasts. On Google I found a mysterious app that Apple has apperantly created - "Chapter Tool Beta". However, all links to this app are dead. Any idea what happened to that app?
Also, what are some alternatives? Garage Band doesn't work well, as in this project I am working on, we have to show a screen shot, then in the next "frame" same screen shot, but with a highlight box over an area. And, it's hard to line up images in GB. Any ideas? Thanks,

I think the Chapter Tool is now dead - though someone did ask about this a few weeks back: it might be worth searching for the thread to see whether anyone could help.
I would suggest you look at Podcast Maker: this will take your pre-existing mp3 files and add chapters and images to make an m4a 'enhanced podcast', and incorporate the information you give it into a feed file. It will then upload the podcast to your iDisk or other server and ping the iTunes Store for you. I've used it for three years now and found it very reliable.
