Need help using wifi on my iPad for computer
Hi guys sorry if this question has been asked before but i wasn't able to find my answer anywhere so here goes :)
I just bought an iPad mini and it's awesome i love it. But due to some problems my wired internet connection to my computer is not working anymore and i am unable to buy a new wire for about a week.
Just wondering if there is a way for me to use the wifi connection on my iPad to connect my desktop PC to the internet as i am unable to stream movies and play games without the wired internet connection. I am aware of the personal hotspot option, however this only allows me to use my data on my SIM card (i dont have a lot of data to spare so this isn't really effective for me, especially since i will be playing games)
Your input is greatly appreciated :D
No, the personal hotspot is your only option.

Need Help using WRT54GL as Wireless Bridge for Xbox
Hi.
I need help configuring my WRT54GL as a wireless bridge for my xbox.
I have a Billion BiPAC 7404VGO currently in service as my main router/modem. i.e. I have my ADSL connection and PC connected to this. I also connect to this with a laptop.
I have an original xbox at the other end of the house (cat5 NOT an option).
Basically I want to connect my xbox to the rest of network. I have a WRT54GL I can use for this. I just dont know how to set it up.
The WRT54GL has Firmware Version: v4.30.7 (out of the box).
My Wireless network is using WPA.
I have a VPN setup through to work via the Billion.
The idea is to stream media from my PC to the xbox (media centre).
Any help would be HUGELY appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
KatmanA wireless router is a device which requires its own wired internet connection. A wireless router is not a wireless access point like the Linksys WAPs. A wireless router does not connect wireless to other wireless routers/APs with standard Linksys firmware. With Linksys firmware you need a WAP54G or similar. The WAPs support wireless bridging and repeater mode.
If you already have a WRT54GL then you have to install a 3rd party firmware which adds wireless bridging capabilities. Read the wikipedia article on "WRT54G" for information about which WRT models support 3rd party firmware and an overview of projects and links.
Remember, however, that you may brick your router if you install a 3rd party firmware incorrectly and you probably void the warranty if you install 3rd party firmware (it is even possible to find out after you restore the original Linksys firmware if you don't clear the NVRAM before). -
Need help using WiFi on my BB 8900 while abroad! Please help
Hello everyone,
I am an O2 UK costumer spending the holidays in France. Since I arrived 3 days ago, I've been using my house's WiFi network to access facebook, BBM, e-mails etc and it worked just fine.
Last night, I briefly put another SIM card (Orange - France) in my unlocked blackberry, and immediately realised that Internet wasn't working anymore. I thought it came from the new SIM so I put the O2 one back in, (the one that was working just fine). But it didn't come back.
I saw several messages similar to this one, but so far no solution has solved the problem.
I tried changing the browser configuration to Hotspot Browser, deleted my saved WiFi connection and put in back in, re-booted the device several times, turning all connections off then back on, but nothing does it.
My phone seems to be connected to my network just fine, although the Wifi sign stays grey and not white (like it used to be when it was working).
The weirdest thing is: Although I can't use BBM, receive e-mails or browse the Internet, I can still access Facebook (but I don't receive notifications).
If anyone has an idea on how to fix it, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks a billion and happy holidays!I'm not sure there's a way to check then. You have to have the device connected to get into the Sync options to see which program is set to sync with the BlackBerry.
If you check out this link look in the "Organizer Support" section. You'll see all the programs that the Desktop Manager 4.7 can sync with

My wife had an iPad for a year and synced to our computer with no problem. I recently received an ipad2 and when I tried to sync using separate apple and iTunes passwords, under her computer user name, it appears I over-road her account and synced all her apps with my apps on my iPad. I then set myself up as a new user on our computer and tried to sync. I now get the error that my iPad is synced to another library. How can I start over without erasing all my data on the iPad?
Go back to her login. Unless you deliberately erased apps, they should all be there, both yours and hers! Then, you need to set up each iPad separately. You will notice that they have separate names for that very purpose.
There is no problem with multiple Apple IDs on the same iTunes on the same computer except... Apps are permanently associated with the ID that was originally used to obtain them. If you choose to update an app from inside iTunes and you're logged into the "wrong" ID, you must log out and back in again.
On the bright side, you can configure either or both iPads to sync with apps and music and movies, etc. from either or both IDs. Further, if you choose to update the apps from the iPads themselves, there is no need to log out/in. The device handles that. All you need is the correct password. In my case, I use the same password for both IDs to make things easier. -

My iPad 4 does not show up on my TV screen when in AirPlay mirroring mode using WiFi. The iPad displays AirPlay set to TV with the Mirroring On (green).
My iPad IOS software is 8.2 and my Apple TV software is at 7.1. The TV displays the Apple Menu. The “Settings” does however displays the General menu allowing me to see:
Apple software: 7.1 (7003)
Apple TV: Model No. A1464, Part No. MD199B/A
Signal Strength shows 5 circles.
It does not display the iPad screen but when I use the BT Sport App I can hear the sound but there is no video. I have searched the internet for a solution to no avail. The problem first arose when the IOS was at 8.1+ but it worked correctly briefly when I updated to IOS 8.2. Can you help please?Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.

It sounds like you might need to contact Yahoo! if you aren't able to setup your email account as a new account after deleting it.

Hi, I need help on how to update software for my ipad1, can someone help me?
The iPad 1 can not be upgraded beyond 5.1.1. If you haven't upgraded to iOS 5.1.1, see the info below.
If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

Information regarding transferring purchases from your iDevice to iTunes on your syncing computer can be found at the link below.

I need help setting up an apple id for my son's phone. It seems his email address has been taken and/or we cant get the password.
Two different things
If you forgot the password
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
If the email ID you want to use is in use by someone else - then you may need a new one
The iCloud ID's are usually unique and may be of help if you set one up -

Need help on buying FIREWIRE/USB-compatible for Logic Pro 9.0.2 on my SL
Hi...Im in needs of help in my new OS Mac World.Had my Logic Pro 9(9.0.2) install in my Snow Leopard(10.6.3).Need help on buying FIREWIRE/USB-compatible for Logic Pro 9.0.2 on my Snow Leopard.Just a real basic audio interface that works with my Macbook pro Specification.You're help will be much more appreciated..
Best Regards:RatzyMazzyIn any case I would suggest to get an audio interface which is *Core Audio* compatible. This means that you just need to plug it in and it will work with OS X’s integrated driver. I once had an M-Audio interface which needed its own driver and it had latency problems because of them. I am currently using the EDIROL FA-66 with 10.6.3 on my MacBook Pro. It still works flawlessly and has worked without problems in the past with 10.4 and 10.5, too. Here is how it looks like: http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.php?ProductId=731
I have also heard good things about the FireWire interfaces from Presonus, like the FireBox.

I need helping using iAds in my application.
I need helping using iAds in my application. I currently am not using any storyboards. I am using Sprite builder for my UI.
I attatched an image ot show all the different file name I have.
Everyone is being used & they all work fully.
The "iAdViewController.h & .m" files are just example codes I looked up and was messing with so that my iAd can work.I wouldn't even be able to use the Mathscript node in an executable?
What I am trying to do is make a user configurable data stream.
They tell me how many bytes are in the stream and what parameters they
want to be put in to it. Currently I have to make vi's that are
called dynamicaly to make the parameters. Then recompile
the code and send it to them. This is somewhat of how the config
file is set up so I know how to make the data.
Data_Type foo
Bytes 30
parameter_name
function
byte# format
sync
foo_sync
29 int
time
foo_time
1,2,3,4 double
If I can't use MathScript to allow the user to make there own functions
is there another way that I might be able to do this so I do not have
to recompile the code atleast? Were I might just be able to make
the new function and send that to them.
Any Idea would be great. -
Re: Beginner needs help using a array of class objects, and quick
Dear Cynthiaw,
I just read your Beginner needs help using a array of class objects, and quick of Dec 7, 2006 9:25 PM . I really like your nice example.
I also want to put a question on the forum and display the source code of my classe in a pretty way as you did : with colors, indentation, ... But how ? In html, I assume. How did you generate the html code of your three classes ? By help of your IDE ? NetBeans ? References ?
I already posted my question with six source code classes ... in text mode --> Awful : See "Polymorphism did you say ?"
Is there a way to discard and replace a post (with html source code) in the Sun forum ?
Thanks for your help.
