Tethering w the IPAD

Can I use the tethering feature to provide internet access to my Ipad via Bluetooth?

Why should I pay for TWO data plans when I alreadty have one?
Because carriers are in the business to make money and that is how the carriers or most carriers want it.
I want to be able to bluetooth tether to my mobile phone so that I do not pay for TWO data plans. Can I do that? Perhaps in iOS 4.3?
Not with the iPad, but you will be able to use the iPhone's wi-fi hotspot feature with the iPad, which will be an additional monthly cost. With AT&T, the data plan is not unlimited and if you go over with all tethered devices - via bluetooth tethering and/or via the wi-fi hotspot feature, there will be an additional charge.

What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

#1. Understand that if you switch carriers, you can NOT take your existing iPhone with you. It won't work. You will need to purchase a new one.
#2. Your only choices are Sprint and Verizon. Decide who has the better coverage in your area. Keep in mind that you will NOT be able to get simultaneous voice and 3G data on either of these, as their CDMA networks do not support it. The U.S. T-Mobile network is not supported and is not fully compatible with the iPhone as it operates on a rarely used frequency compared to the rest of the world.
#3. What in the world are "niners"? Do you mean you want to be able to keep your existing "phone numbers"? If so, that should be no problem. Most numbers in the US are now portable.
#4. Consider WHY you want to switch. If the issue is really price, you're not going to see much of a difference. A few dollars a month at best for comparable voice and data plans.

Tethering a camera to the iPad

Hello all, new iPad owner here. I was wondering if there was an app out there that allowed the tethering of a DSLR camera directly to the iPad without having to use a computer (onOne Software). I bout the camera connection it which allows downloading of photos from camera to the iPad but I want to be able to control the camera from the iPad like youcan when tethered to a computer. Thanks.

Since DSLRs are part of proprietary "systems", it's unlikely that a generic remote control app will be available. More likely, the app will have to come from the manufacturer as part of their "system". (i.e.: you can't use all the smart features of Nikon flash with a Canon EOS. So an app to control a Nikon will likely have to come from Nikon.)
The only remote control from an iPad I've seen uses a Canon EOS 5D:

I dont know much more about what equipment was used (I'm not an EOS user) but I can't imagine that it'd be cheap. And in addition, if you're not a EOS user, then you're looking at $2000+ for a EOS 5D body, then add the lenses, flash, etc. BTW, it looks like there's still a "computer" attached to the camera body, but it's more a controller rather than a general purpose PC (which is why I think that it's not going to be cheap.)

How do i prevent the ipad from dropping wifi and tethering?

I can tether my iphone 5 and ipad but when not in use the connection gets terminated and i have to do the tethering process all over again. The same thing happens with Softbank wifi hotspots, I have to re-enter username and password everytime I open the iPad.
At home the wifi connection remains stable no matter what. Why is it only tethering and wifi hotspots?

YOu could try 'settings, wifi' and turn 'ask to join networks' on and see if that limits it's push to automatically join the other network.

Is USB Tethering possible with the iPad.

Since wireless Tethering isn't secure, I was considering USB Tethering which is. However, is that possible with the iPad?

Hi
You can share your tablets mobile data connection with other devices via USB, Bluetooth or by turning your table into portable Wifi hotspot.
Note; this function is only supported by 3G models.
In option Wireless & Networks you can configure and manage this setting
You can tap More to find out the hidden options.
The option Tethering & portable hotspot settings would provide the possibility (USB tehthering) to share the data connection.

Tethering N8 and the IPAD

Hello,
Having bought an IPAD and trying to tethering with it by the Joiku Premium app installed in my phone, Safari does not "see" the Internet. The Ipad gets linked to my N8 by Wi-Fi (I can see in the screen the IP address and the submask emitted by Joiku), but Safari does not take account of that, and nothing happens. Belgacom does not offer support on this issue and Joiku's developer says me that everything should be fine.
Any ideas?

Is it hidden via Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ?

Why won't iPad1 show up as a Device in iTunes when the iPad is Wi-Fi and powered up?

iPad1 is properly designated to be Wi-Fi sync'd to the Windows 7 64.
iPad correctly shows Device in iTunes; and correctly sync's in iTunes when tethered to computer via USB.
No Device listed in iTunes when iPad is on and powered by 10w power cube.
Network connects.
iCloud backup works when Wi-Fi.
iPad USED to be visible to iTunes when on and powered and on Wi-Fi.
Some anti-miracle occured.
Need exorcist.

Thank you for your reply; however I don't believe that your advice fits my circumstance - in that my device (in this case, the iPad) DID show up as a Device in iTunes last week - when connected via Wi-Fi (that is, powered up and on the home network and with iTunes open in the Windows 7 computer).
I was then able to communicate (read: sync) between the iPad and the computer NOT using the USB cable-connect to the computer - merely via Wi-Fi.
I can not repeat that miracle this week (meaning, that I must hook up the iPad1 to the computer via the USB cable, where it does register as a Device in iTunes - and it does go thru the 6 steps of sync.
Did I grossly missinterpret your instructions?
Thank you, in advance, for any additional assistance.

How can I make the Ipad II tether to my Samsung mini smart phone?

I know how to tether as I have successfully tethered my Samsung mini to my Windows laptop but I get an error message on the ipad II saying it is unable to connect even though my phone is listed in the available networks and I have entered the correct password.
I would appreciate a solution please.

Samsung smartphones - or at least the Galaxy line - have a feature similar to the iPhone called a personal hot spot. If you activate that on your Samsung device it will appear as any other WiFi hotspot for your iPad. Connect to that and you will have Internet access for your iPad.

Yes if you purchase the tethering data plan for your iPhone. See:

How do I put videos on the iPad w/o synching with iTunes?

I just bought the iPad 2 from a friend of mine. It is "tethered" to his computer. Meaning it won't let me sync my iTunes videos and music to it w/o doing the erase & sync. I'm hesitant to do that just yet because I have already dialed in the settings I like, and he has some paid apps I don't want to get rid of.
My question is...
Can I put videos on the iPad without iTunes?
I've tried apps like Drop Box, but they don't let you download to your iPad. Just stream. and when I'm at work, I have no internet connection.
Thank you.

Unfortunately, if you want to make full use of this iPad, you really have no choice, but to do an erase and resync with your own iTunes/Apple ID account or create a new account of your own.
There is really no workaround. If you want to sync to your own iTunes library, purchase music,movies, books, and apps of your own via Apple's iTunes Store, you'll need to completely erase and resync this iPad. As it is, if you wish to purchase apps that aren't free, they'll end up being charged to your friend's Apple ID account. I do not think that'll be appreciated.
If you insisted on leaving the iPad in its current state. I was going to suggest a paid app called Photo Transfer App that also allows transfers of movies that might work for you, but because you're still linked to your friend's account this would not be advisable.
Plus, using this iPad with two different accounts (one on your computer and a different one on the iPad) you would end up purchasing this app twice to get the functionality you need. Again using your friend's account.
The paid apps on this iPad will always be linked to your friend's Apple ID account.
You really need to reinitialize (erase) and resync with your own iTunes and Apple ID account and purchase these on your own.
Sorry if this is not the answer you've been looking for.

Aperture and the ipad

I am new to ipad, but I imagine there must be something other than photoshop express to organize and manipulate photos. Do you have any suggesstions? I would love to use Aperture, or even iphoto!
Thanks,
BBT

This probably won't happen until the iPad gets ios 4, when the APIs open up. Until then the database isn't open to third parties for organization. Hopefully we'll have a way to import while shooting (maybe even tethered control) and be able to select, give ratings, crop and export. I'm not so concerned about editing raw on the iPad, and I doubt it can handle it. I just want to be albe to review with a client on a shoot and easily email or ftp jpeg versions after a shoot.
Hope hope, fingers crossed.
Right now it's ok, just to be able to import and review after a shoot. But it just seems there are other possibilities that would just require proper access to the database.

Will the HDMI adapter for the Ipad serve as an output AND an input?

I do a lot of video productions and could use an extra moniter on site. The camera I use has an HDMI out, and I noticed there is an HDMI adapter for the Ipad. Would the Ipad recieve/display the signal being sent from my camera? If not, is there another way?

The Apple Digital AV Adapter only output to TV. It cannot be tethered to a camera.
