Possible to use non-AT&T wireless card with iPad??

Thinking of getting an iPad, however I travel frequently and after looking at the outlandish prices for international data plans, I am about ready to give up on the idea. Anyone know if it is possible to use a non-AT&T wireless card with the iPad? I'm guessing there would be a compatibility issue of some sort.

The 3G iPad is not locked to a particular service provider. You can get a local Sim card and data plan in many countries. This article will give you some idea of what's available: http://gigaom.com/2010/05/10/ipad-data-plan-guide/

How do I use a Verizon PC Wireless card with my iMAC Intel Core desktop?

Help! Bought a Kyocera KPC650 Wireless PC Card for Verizon wireless internet. Works fine w/ laptop because it has a slot. How do I configure my iMAC desktop to accept this card? Is there an external USB adapter? Or do I have to get one installed internally? Which adapter works with OX 10.4?
I've seen the Quatech U132 online. Will that work? Its $192!! As is the Sewell adapter too. ($209)
Any ideas? I want to get off SBCYahoo DSL and their router because our DSL line is damaged in our complex and no one is fixing it!
Thanks in advance.

What protocol is Verizon using that is not compatible with the Airport Extreme built into your iMac? I have used Apple's Airport Extreme with a lot of different wireless routers with zero problems as all conform to either 802.11b or 802.11g standard both of which are supported by the built in Airport Extreme.

How to use shortcut keys on wireless keyboard with ipad

i just purchased an ipad 4 with a wireless keyboard and do not know how to use the function keys on the wireless keyboard to access the homescreen, scroll up and down, etc. please help with anything i need to turn on/off or download . thanks

If you have more than one keyboard active, you may be using a different one than you want. Use the "globe" key to make sure your virtual keyboard is set to Japanese Romaji or Japanese Kana. Which one do you use?
On the hardware keyboard, use apple/command plus space to switch between different keyboard layouts which may be active.

Using Extreme as a wireless card

I have a G4 Dual 800 with no Airport card. I also have a UFO Airport Extreme Basestation.
Can I connect the basestation to the G4 and use it as a wireless card to connect to my network?
Does that make sense?

You cannot use the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) directly as a replacement wireless adapter, but (if your wireless network is created by another AirPort) you can create a Wireless Distribution System (WDS) between them. This would allow the AEBS to wirelessly extend the wireless network of the other AirPort AND enable its LAN port to allow the G4 to access the network/Internet.

HT4628 I can not use the internal wireless card with my Mac pro 2012, I don't know if it is broken

I can not use the internal wireless card with my Mac pro 2012, I don't know if it is broken. The problem is happen recently, I have to use an independent wireless card now. Thanks!

When you enable Internet Sharing in OS X, you are creating a separate sub-net.
There is no option to allow this to be a simple pass-through from Ethernet to AirPort (or the other way).
The problem is easily solved by getting an inexpensive wireless router. You can replace your current router OR disable the DHCP server on the wireless router and allow the wireless clients to get an IP address from the current router.

Is it possible to use an iPhone as a controller for iPad (for games).

Is it possible to use an iPhone as a controller for iPad?
And if so what apps are supported.
And will gta 3, vice city, San Andreas and dead trigger 2 work with it.

The only game I know of that does this is "The Incident" - it's not a built-in iOS feature. The developers of that game specifically have allowed it.

The iPad uses a micro-SIM card.

I want to replace my wireless card with a 5 ghz compatible card.. i have a hp pavillion g7-1220so ?

Anyone know which card i can buy who will work?

Hi:
There are no 5.0 GHz wireless cards that will work in your model.
Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook:
http://bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c02834058/c02834058.pdf
Supported wireless cards with HP part numbers are listed in chapter 3 starting on page 26.
The Realtek and Intel cards listed as dual band cards are not correct. The realtek 8188 card is a single band card, and the Intel 6230 has the wrong part number and no one knows what the right one is. If you order the Intel card you get a single band Intel 1000 card or some other brand single band card.
You can only install one of the cards listed in the manual and it must have the HP part number on it or it will not work.

Can I use a virgin micro SIM card with an iPhone 4?

Can I use a virgin micro SIM card with an iPhone 4?

Everything depends on whether the iphone is unlocked or not and whether it's an ATT or Verison version. Follow the links in the right panel, under "More Like This".
It would help if you indicate which country you're in.

Using Express without a Wireless Card?

I would like to use my Express only to stream music from iTunes on my desktop to my stereo. I do not have a wireless card. I thought I could do this but am unable to configure the Express. It is plugged into my network and has a gree light. My desktop is plugged into the same network. However, the Setup Assistant can not find the Express.
Any ideas?

I believe your computer must have a wireless card in order to setup an Airport Express base station.
I would recommend either having a friend with wireless in a laptop come over and help you set it up. You might also be able to find a friendly store that might help you out.
The settings in the Airport Express stay when you unplug it.
Edit: Nevermind. I see someone found instructions on using the Airport Administration utility.

Using a mac's wireless card as an access point and hiding the SSID

Is it possible to create a wireless network on a mac that my iphone and laptop can connect to, and hide the ssid for the network and add wep protection? I really need to know how to do this.

Welcome to Apple's discussion forums!
Hiding the SSID doesn't necessarily make your network any more secure, especially if you're only using WEP. From what I understand, the SSID is broadcasted every time a computer makes a connection anyway, so hiding it really doesn't accomplish anything that can't be outsmarted by some simple SSID interception software. You really need to be using WPA2 or at least WPA in order to get a reasonable level of security.
Your Mac can only host with WEP-based security. That's acceptable for small file transfers between Macs on a temporary basis, but if you want to have a home network with some real security, you either need to buy a wireless router with WPA2 or use Ethernet. Ethernet is preferable.

Is it possible to use non gif/jpg images in Swing?

hi,
is it possible to use bmp, png or other formats in Swing (eg as part of ImageIcon) without using the imaging libraries?
I can't find anything in the docs but was hoping its supported somewhere?
thanks,
asjf

I know you can load and display a PNG image just the way you do for a GIF/JPEG one :
ImageIcon myIcon = new ImageIcon("my_icon.png");but I don't think many others formats are recognized by j2se... you can simply try to load a BMP file to find out.

Using the Dell 1505 wireless card in the MP

I just installed the Broadcom 4321 card in my MP and would like to get rid of the "third-party wireless card" card type in the System Profiler and have it say the more accurate description of what it really is. This card was sold as a Dell 1505 card so I imagine this is why it comes up as a "third party card" in the Profiler.
Other than that, it's working great.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Nope. Been there done that. I have both "genuine" Apple and the Broadcom card. Purchasing the "real" Apple card is practically extorsion to get the very same thing as this BCM card. Even FastMac admits to the BCM4321 being what they sell...but at 89 bucks. Didn't want to go that route. 20 bucks new sounds much better to me.
I'll put up with the generic description. Small price to pay.

Using non-mac external hard drive with time machine

Is it possible to use a non-mac external hard drive (ie, anything other than Time Capsule) connected to Airport Extreme with Time Machine?
If so, how do I make the external hard drive visible in the back up disk list?
