Transferring videos from non-mac laptop to ipad air to be used in Keynote

Hi!
I've 2 questions regarding the ipad which I hope someone can clarify for me.
1) Can I transfer videos from a non-Mac laptop (not bought via itunes) to the ipad? Will it function well?
2) Can I then use these videos in Keynote as part of presentations?
Thank you!

You can use a service like dropbox where you upload them from the laptop and then download them onto the iPad.
The one rub will be if the video is in a format that the iPad will play.
Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 1080p, 60 frames per second, High Profile level 4.2 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
as to inserting it into keynote, you may want to research and see how that works on the iPad.

Connected wirelessly to Canon printer MX340. Duplex printing option is grayed out for me but not on my daughter's non-Mac laptop or husband's PC which is connected to the printer. Mine has two-sided option available at the Apple store. Any ideas?

We use a Canon MX340 series printer/fax/scanner. My husband has his PC hooked to it and my daughter prints wirelessly from it with no problem with her non-Mac laptop. I have trouble printing. Often it does not print and I have to delete the job from the queue. Other times it will print OK but two-sided printing is always grayed out in my printing options. When I took it to the Apple store and printed on their network (selecting their printer) the two-sided option was available. Makes me think the printer is set up wrong, but I am not certain. A fw times at home when trying to print I got an error message about incompatible fonts, but it printed anyway after deleting the job and starting over. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks

OK, just an update.
Two years into this, I still find I can only do full duplex printing by using Windows XP running inside of VMWare. I've had occasional, ephemeral luck with duplex printing, but nothing long lasting.
I've tried this in Tiger and Leopard (now at 10.5.6), and I've had this issue with Canon printers MP780 iP4300 and MP610, direct connected to my Core2Duo 17" MBP. I also have this issue when printing over a network, but that's a much harder problem to solve.
Currently, this is my #1 most pressing issue for my Mac, because not being able to print from a computer when you print a lot is a really big drag, and using VMWare all the time is also a really big drag. Other people posting seem to be able to print in Duplex using the very same printers. What could be wrong with my MBP? I see the duplex box option, but most of the time it's grayed out as if my printer doesn't support duplex.
I've tried direct selecting printer drivers from the system preferences, but nothing seems to have an effect. And this is off of a clean Leopard install.
My wife now has similar problems with her new MBP - the Canon print drivers (CUSP & non CUSP) aren't allowing the Duplex box to be checked.
I am willing to pay good money to anyone who thinks they can fix this problem.
Thank you,
- Jeff

HT1414 Please recommend the least expensive option, between MB Pro or Air or perhaps non-Mac laptop?

My non-Mac desktop PC was damaged beyond repair so, I need a replacement. I replaced it with an iPad (iOS 4.3).. For over a year that's worked fine until now...updates started requiring iOS 5.0. Then I purchased an iPhone with 6.0 a few weeks ago. The 'wireless' update to 6.1 did not work and the Apple store says the phone is in recovery mode which requires iTunes to update.
My immediate need is to use iTunes to update my iPad (4.3 iOS) and iPhone (6.0 iOS).
I'm looking for my least expensive option between MB Pro or Air or perhaps non-Mac laptop.
Note - I am disabled so it is difficult for me to travel to the Apple store every time I need to use iTunes on a computer. So I'm thinking perhaps a MB AIr might be a long term solution. Or.... Should I just get the store to update iOS on both devices and forget about a laptop purchase? (assuming 6.1 will allow wireless updates for future changes and that if either device goes into recovery again iTunes will be required).
What do you suggest?

That is a taffy. Go to the store once and update all devices, with risk of loosing all of the info, that use to be on your phone, but probably gone anyway. And second option is to travel to the store to buy computer, with a very little chance of preserving some info on the ipad, but very high chance of multiple other trips for troubleshooting of all three. Hmm? To Be or not to Be?

Session Restore isn't working!!!!!!!! Both my mac laptop and Windows 7 desktop no longer respond when I click "restore previous session" Please get this fixed asap, as it is my most used feature on FireFox!

System Restore is not working!!! Both my mac laptop and now my Windows 7 desktop will not allow me to restore previous sessions.

Try to use the "Restore Previous Session" entry in the History menu instead.

we have a mac laptop and dont have any problems with pdf files but our imac will not open them. any suggestions?

Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

I currently have CS 5.5 Maser Suite Collection, I will be upgrading my computer from PC to Mac laptop and Mac desktop... What would be my best option regarding Creative Suite upgrading?

Hi
I currently run CS 5.5 Master Suite Collection.
I plan to upgrade my computing platform from being a PC laptop, to a combination of a Mac laptop and a Mac desktop.
Can you please advise on the best fit in terms of upgrade for my Adobe Suite? Do I need two purchases, one for laptop, one for desktop? Or will one purchase cover both?
Can I be logged into both laptop and desktop att the same time? For example using one to work on Photoshop while the other renders video and animation in AfterEffects and Premiere?
would I need to install each component on each platform, or can I have a common set up easily rolled out?
Cheers

Normally one purchase is good for two machines, but that is under the condition that only one machine is using the purchased software (the suite in this case) at any given time. If you intend to be using the suite on two machines simultaneously then you will need two licenses (or subscriptions, depending how you upgrade).

Why is there a charge for apps on the mac laptops and computers

Why is there a charge for apps on the Mac laptops and computers and not on the Ipad or Iphone? And the same apps are cheaper on my Nook?

Kind of unfair. I get the cheapest ones on my Nook and all my friends that have Iphones and Ipads are free.
Thankyou for answering me though

Unable to connect mac laptops and windows laptops on network at same time

Hi I have a wrt110 router which has a wired windows desktop attached. I also have several mac laptops connected wirelessly as well as an hp printer ,video game system blue ray player ,ipod,iphone and kindle all which connect with no problem. I have a pc laptop (Dell) which can see and connect to my network but does not connect to the internet . I tried disabling and even temporarily removing the antivirus software plus disabling the firewall but with no success. I am at my wits end because I need the pc laptop for work. The internet will connect to the pc laptop when I hard connect it into the router.
DSL through Earthlink .
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try this. Disable IPv6 on all Win 7 computers under LAN properties for both wired and wireless adapters. Reboot computers. Leave the MAC's turned off for now. Try to connect all the devices except the MAC's. If successful connect the MAC's and if they have issue's, disable IPv6 on those now too. Make sure the WRT110 on on firmware 1.0.04 or above.

Can non-Mac users view iCal calendar posted to iCalx?

Is there a way to publish an iCal calendar to the Web through iCalx that a large group of people can view without having a Mac and iCal? Thanks for any help you might be able to offer. Phil

OK, so let's get to the bottom of this.
I just created a new Calendar in iCal. I clicked the option for it to publish titles and notes. I added www.apple.com to the note field, and then published it to icalx (in a public folder, no password needed). I went to my icalx account and clicked on the html version of the new calendar. I navigated to the date of the new event and clicked on it. A pop-up window shows with my note in it, but the link is not clickable.
So, I went back to iCal and edited the note, changing the note to "http://www.apple.com", refreshed that calendar, went back to icalx and clicked on the event and the pop-up window had a clickable link in it, which took me to Apple's website.
I also did your specific website address and it showed up fine as a clickable link.
Is there anything at all about the above that is different when you try to do it?

Clarity on Mac laptops and Windows

I've been reading a few posts and now feel confused. Could I beg indulgence and ask what is the deal with the intel laptops and windows?
Can both the Macbook and the Pro run (i.e. boot) straight to windows? If so which versions of windows?
I've been running Virtual PC and Windows XP and it runs like a real dog - practically unusable. I am keen to get a new Mac laptop but really want to be sure I can boot into windows as well. (Sadly most accounting software is PC based, especially in Canada!).
Your help would be much appreciated! Thanks!
Stewart

Yes, it can boot into windows natively, thus using no emulation or virtualization. Supported are Windows XP SP2 versions (home or pro).
You can get more tech details, as well as download the free utility from apple to get this to work on any intel mac here http://www.apple.com/bootcamp
