Simulating an iPad App

I just started a new job and tauted all the great things that Captivate can do. My new company bought Captivate 5.5 for me. One of my new bosses asked me if I can simulate an iPad app to teach users how to use it as a tutorial. This would not actually run on the iPad, but on our web portal. But I'm wondering how to make it look like an iPad is running when I'm on a PC.
Hopefully this question makes some sense.
I will be creating many tutorials for various web apps, so I'll probably be back a lot.
Thanks! Have a great day.

Hi Jenn and welcome to our community
I would think this would be as simple as obtaining an image of an iPad to use as your Captivate slide background. Then construct the recording in the center or user area of the iPad image so it appears you are using the iPad.
Granted, you may need to scout around and find "iPad looking icons" to use, but I would think that bit should be somewhat easy.
Cheers... Rick

To create a simulation tutorial of an iPad App using Adobe Captivate 08.

To create a simulation tutorial of an iPad App using Adobe Captivate 08.
The solution I got is to use Reflector App to mirror the iPad on to the PC and then record the screen. And to show user taps (essential for creating a simulation) through the reflector, NRTouchPoints, a UIWindow subclass that simulates user touches on the screen, has to be included in the application. Has anyone tried this out? Is this suggestion feasible?

After developing the .swf, I'm creating a .apk (Android application
package) file which includes the finished .swf file (at 720x1280), 3 icon
files (one of which is used as the button on the Android screen to start
the app), the required .xml file (which holds the necessary info on how
Android uses the .apk file).
The finished .apk file is then uploaded to the Android device using the adb
(Android Debug Bridge) commands in a command prompt.

Interactive objects/gaming code within LOVE magazine iPad app. How do they do it?!

I am referring to a folio within the LOVE Magazine iPad app, which is free in most part. It is called 'Kusama & Louis Vuitton'.
When a finger is placed on the iPad a randomized ball appears, then this may be 'flung' about the page and it interacts with other balls created. On some pages they give the balls some sort of gravity simulation meaning they always fall downwards.
ANY help on finding out how to start playing with these interactions and getting them onto the iPad would be amazing.
Thanks.

Its gonna be tough using HTML and Canvas probably. Here is an article outlining implementing gravity in HTML5...

Running iPad Apps via xcode

Is it possible to run iPad apps and books successfully without an iPad if I install xcode on my iMac?

No. Xcode has iOS Simulator for test your applications, but not for others

IPad app AiO Remote

I scanned document with IPad app AiO Remote and HP printer.
App created .pdf file 306 Mb in documents folder on my iPad Air iOS 8
When I tried to open document in AiO Remote, I receive error:
Not enough memory to complete operation.
And then .pdf preview window showed error
The operation couldn't be completed.
NSURLERRORDOMAIN error -999
Is there any way to save my scanned .pdf document and what is this error means?
Is this some restriction about size of scanned document in AiO a Remote? Or just a bug?

Hello @Justromagod ,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand that you are getting error messages when trying to use the AIO remote app.
I would like to help.
I get the 'Not enough memory to complete operation' message tells me that you might be running out of room on the iPad.
Also, the -999 error usually means: another request is made before the previous request is completed.
You could uninstall, then reinstall the app.
There is a Cloud Services department that supports the App.
Please call our Cloud Services at 855-785-2777.

IPAD App for SAP without Middleware

Hi experts,
I am new about mobility topics and I am involved in a new project that consists in developing iPAD apps using data from SAP ECC and saved into the tablet.
In my business scenario there will be about 1.000 users that need to synchronize data from SAP ECC with the following characteristics:
Volumes
Basically there are 2 type of data to store into the iPAD:
Clients assigned in Portfolio (about 1500 clients per User to download)
Static data (i.e. configuration table/parameter)
Let's assume that the size of data exchanged is about 3 Megabyte
Frequency
The initial upload has to be made once a year and thereafter once a day it should be checked for updates
At the very present time we are supposing to use web services calling SAP ECC in order to retrieve and store data.Is there any particular drawback in doing it without a Middleware?
I have heard about Sybase, but I cannot find the real advantage since it seems to be another database where data can be replicated into it. As for the device management console, my client is adopting yet AirWatch.
I have also heard about SAP Netweaver Gateway but I cannot catch the real advantage into using it.
Thanks
E.

Hi Emanuele,
In your case, SUP would provide the development tools, framework and APIs to easily handle the authentication, synchronization etc. You wouldn't need to define your own synchronization mechanism, it's in the product. Now if the updates are only sent from the server to the mobile devices, this shouldn't be to difficult to handle even without SUP.
You could easily create REST Web Services using Gateway and then consume them using the mobile devices. You don't want to consume SOAP Web Services using a mobile application, trust me. You could do this using the ICF (Internet Communication Framework) to achieve this but again it would be easier with Gateway.
You don't necessarily need SUP or Gateway to create only a simple mobile application. But then if your customer is happy with their first mobile application, they'll want more. And then products such as SUP or Gateway can make the difference. These products prodvide a standard development environment, tools to manage the apps and the users etc. With multiple mobile apps connected to multiple back-ends with more and more users, you'll need a middleware to manage all this and make sure the performance is great.
Usually people don't use SUP or Gateway for their first mobile application but then they start to see the benefits of mobility and they want more. And then they start to realize the benefits of these products and they understand that a real mobile strategy has to be defined etc.
Regards,
Pierre

IPad App Approved, How to Build/Submit iPhone Version?

I've got an iPad app approved and working well through iTunes, but now that the feature is available, I want to publish this for iPhone. I've got a few questions about the best process:
FYI—I've already got my new folios created for iPhone resolutions (as renditions with the same Product ID).
1. Is it best that I build an iPhone and iPad version of the app and submit it to Apple as a Version update (can I even do this with Apple)? Or should I build just an iPhone version and submit that as a separate app?
2. Why do I not get the iTunes Subscription option when I try to build the app in Viewer Builder (I chose to make an app for both iPhone and iPad). Multi-Issue is selected and grayed out so I can't change it.
Thanks!

I'm trying to do exactly the same this morning.
When I open Viewer Builder and try to modify the app (v19, multi-issue) you couldn't go back and select ipad and iphone devices with iOS.
I didn't try, but I think you probably have to create a new app with the same ID and settings, new certificates, etc... and submit to Apple this new one as an update.
Am I right?

Can only see New apps in iPad app store

Seems kind of pointless to search for apps on the iPad app store, when it will only show you the "new" ones. When I choose any category, then click the show all button, I don't get all, just the "new" ones ... never more than about 97 or so. searching the same category in iTunes for just iPad apps will almost always yield far more choices. for example I can only see about 97 utilities for the iPad from my iPad app store, but in iTunes there are 260 choices. They aren't iPhone apps either. Another example, if I show the games category on the iPad I can only see 27 New and Noteworthy apps, and 24 What's hot apps. No more. In iTunes I have an additional option of a subcategory, for example Action, there are 200 games released for iPad since March 31st available in that one category.
Not sure if I have a preference set wrong, it's just a bug, or if someone just wasn't thinking. Mayabe it's a bandwidth thing, but at least give me the subcategories or let me see the "next" 50.

Yes. How else do you access the App Store? I'm not aware that you can do the same thing from the iPad's App Store app. Nevertheless, whatever you browse from the iPad if there's "+" in the price it means the app can be used both on an iPhone and iPad.
I guess you finally understood the question
Why should I be forced to use iTunes to see all of the apps? The iPad app store should see everything just like iTunes.. This isn't an iPhone.
At least the link is some what helpful although quite slow going back and forth to app store to get details.

AiO iPad app + HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw

Hi.
I'm trying to let the AiO iPad app recognize my M276nw printer.
AirPrint printing works flawlessy, so the HP Supply app does (it recognizes the printer and let me check for toner levels).
There's no way to let the printer appear in the AiO Remote app but no luck.
I've tryied both wifi and ethernet connection. I've tryied several iOS devices with different iOS version but no positive results. Checking new firmware on the printer itself says latest version is already installed.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Luca DB

@lucadb
Thank you for posting regarding the AiO app and the m276nw printer. Based on your issue, I tested my m276nw printer with my iPad Air this morning and was able to find the printer and successully: print, scan and copy to and from it.
Question: When you first open the app, you should be have a screen called printer connections ~ does this screen show that your iOS device is connected to the printer and the router? If not, check your network connection between your printer and your iOS device?
If you are not seeing the above screen, then you are not using our newest app version and need to upgrade your app via the itunes store.
Please let me know if you continue to have issues with this app and connecting to the m276nw printer.

Printer Control iPad app can't find OfficeJet 8500 909g even though HP ePrint can

The HP Printer Control app for iPad can't find the HP OfficeJet 8500 909g. The printer is properly connected to the wireless network and was found easily by the HP ePrint iPad app (and by my computer's utility and scan apps). But when that ePrint app suggested I use the Printer Control to do mobile scanning, the PC app still couldn't find the printer.

Hi,
This is an expected behavior as only ePrint enabled devices are supported by the HP PRinter Control app, the specific model is not supported as you may listed below within the full chart of any supported products for the different mobile apps:

IPad app store software update problem

My iPad app store icon indicates I need software updated. When I go to the app store all screens are working fine except the update software screen, which is blank. The "Updates" and "Search Store" bar is still at the top, as is the "featured" "top charts" "genius" "purchased" and "updates" bar at the bottom. I can easily navigate between the screens. But on this update page between the top and bottom is all white. I've tried shutting on and off, and tried resetting the iPad but neither option works.

Quick workaround,
App store
Purchased.
Go through all apps and hit update on the apps that offer where it should say open or show the icloud icon
Just worked for me

IPad App Store not working!

My iPad App Store shows 5 updates available, but when I click on it, it goes to a white screen, with no error message. The other links work--featured, top charts, purchased, etc. I AM connected to wifi and it works fine, otherwise.

Try the alternative suggestion by Demo here > Apps won't update on my ipad 2?: Apple Support Communities
Yes, it's been reported and yes, Apple is working to resolve the issue.
More than likely a server issue.

IPad App Store app stuck on avg preview page won't go back to store, iPad App Store app stuck on avg preview page won't go back to store

My iPad App Store is stuck on avg preview page when I open app store

Open multitasking menu (double - press on home button), hold the AppStore icon for a second or so, and kill it with red X that will appear.

IPad app won't download and can't delete it

An iPad app I have previously installed had an update which I went to install as usual. The download is stalled on "waiting" and won't progress. I can't delete the app because when I hold it down it wiggles but the "delete x" won't show. The App Store keeps telling me there's an update but the app just won't move on from waiting.

Have you tried a reboot? Press and hold the home and power buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple. Release the buttons and let the ipad restart. Many times this clears out whatever is hanging the app.
