US iPad 3G and using more than one micro-sim

Hello
I'm planning on ordering a 3G iPad from the US. I travel very regularly and plan on having micro-sim cards for the countries I visit all the time i.e France, UK, Germany and others. Obviously it would be a lot cheaper to have separate sim cards for each country as opposed to roaming on a single subscription.
My question is whether any micro-sim will work in the US iPad 3G straight out of the box. I'll have absolutely no need for the AT&T sim.
Thanks

This post is a little dated, but, as long as I'm here: I just got back from Canada, where I was able to do exactly this: I went into a Bell store in Vancouver and got a microSIM for my 3G iPad 2 ($5). We took my AT&T SIM out and put the Bell SIM in, and it worked exactly the way it should have: I went to "Cellular Data" in Settings and it let me sign up for a variety of month-to-month plans; I went for 5 GB of service for $35. The only thing I had to work around was that the sign-up form wouldn't accept "CA" as a Canadian province; I substituted "BC", and it was happy. The service worked great, and was much cheaper than AT&T's international data roaming plan.
I presume I could go back to Canada and re-use the SIM to purchase a new plan, but I'm not sure how long that would work -- do SIMs (and their phone numbers) used in this way time out after awhile?
To perhaps extend the discussion a bit: I'm going to be in France and the UK in July, and would like to do the same sort of thing, ideally getting one microSIM and service plan that would work in both countries. Orange provides service in France and the UK, but I'm not sure if a service plan bought in France would continue to work in the UK. Any advice?

Can I pair and use more than one set of bluetooth speakers at the same time on my ipod touch 4.0

can I pair and use more than one set of bluetooth speakers at the same time on my ipod touch 4.0 or Iphone 4s or Ipad 2?

You can only connect to one device at a time using Bluetooth, See article below for more information.

While your iOS device can maintain multiple pairing records, it can only connect to one headset or hands-free device at a time. This prevents your iOS device from sending your data to the wrong Bluetooth accessory.

Can I create and use more than one repository on OVM 2.1.5

The version of Oracle VM I am using is 2.1.5 .
I wonder can I create and use more than one repository on OVM 2.1.5. Because I want to install different GOS on different disks.
I know in Oracle VM 2.2 we can use following commands to realize that.
a. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –n /dev/mapper/mpathxp1
b. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –r UUID
c. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –i
And other repositories can also be mounted and found under /var/ovs/mount/UUID.
But in Oracle VM 2.1.5, seems just one repository can be created and mounted. For example:
At first, I create a repository using mpath1p1:
a. # mkfs.ocfs2 /dev/mapper/mpath1p1
b. #/usr/lib/ovs/ovs-makerepo /dev/mapper/mpath1p1 C "cluster root"
c. I can find the repository has been mounted under /OVS.
But if I want to use "/usr/lib/ovs/ovs-makerepo /dev/mapper/mpath2p1 C "cluster root" to create another repository, and check the mount status using command "mount", these two disks are all have been mounted under /OVS.
"# cat /etc/ovs/repositories", only mpath1p1 with UUID was recorded there.
After reboot, only repository with mpath1p1 was mounted under OVS.
Can anyone tell me how to use more than one repositories on OVM 2.1.5. Do I have to install all the GOSs on the same disk and repository.
Thank you very much.

Now I've known how to create different repository. They will be mounted under /OVS/UUID. Thanks.

Publishing more than one site and using more than one computer

I did my sons website in iWeb on my laptop using my own .mac account to publish it. Now I've up graded to a family account, giving my son his own settings etc. I've done my own website now, but when I publish to either mine or his .mac account it seems to go through the process of publishing both sites.
I've also set my son up as a separate user account on my laptop. Can I move his iweb settings so that he can do his website in iweb without seeing mine. I've noticed there's no import function, but surely I could move a folder to a location in his library that will load into iweb. This would be useful because I'd also like to update my own site from the laptop at home and my imac in the office.

Hi Smartmart,
I'd like you to have a look at[this page|http://alyeska.altervista.org/en/iWebTransferSite.html]
The only thing that changes is you put it to another user account on the same computer and not to another computer but the procedure is the same. When you move it by using a USB stick or CD or whatever you will then have the domain file on both the accounts. They are now completely independent from each other. So when you make a change to one site it will be saved only to that Domain file and not to the other.
The two websites (yours and your son's website) are now in one Domain file. What you then have to do is, once you have it on both user accounts, delete your website in your son's account and his in yours. The rest will be preserved.
Regards,
Cédric
Actually it's quite the same you already posted... I was a bit too slow

Can we use more than one Help Provider class in a same project in ADF11g

Hi All,
There are two help providers i want to use .They are "ResourceBundleHelpProvider","OHW Help Provider"
In adf-settings.xml file
<help-provider>
<help-provider-class>oracle.adf.view.rich.help.ResourceBundleHelpProvider</help-provider-class>
<property>
<property-name>baseName</property-name>
<value>com.symmetry.dashboard.panels.Help</value>
</property>
</help-provider>
if try to register both help providers confliction occurs. Is it possible to register and use more than one help provider.?
Thanks in advance.:)

Thanks Frank,
In adf-settings.xml file
<help-provider>
<help-provider-class>oracle.adf.view.rich.help.ResourceBundleHelpProvider</help-provider-class>
<property>
<property-name>baseName</property-name>
<value>com.symmetry.dashboard.panels.Help</value>
</property>
</help-provider>
<help-provider prefix="RB_">
<help-provider-class>oracle.help.web.rich.helpProvider.OHWHelpProvider</help-provider-class>
<property>
<property-name>ohwConfigFileURL</property-name>
<value>/myHelpset/config.xml</value>
</property>
<property>
<property-name>baseURI</property-name>
<value>http://127.0.0.1:7101/Dashboard_workflow/myHelpset/%3c/value>
</property>
</help-provider>
I differentiated the help providers with the "prefix" attribute in the <help-provider> tag. So now confliction is not occuring between those.
I used this prefix in the "helpTopicId" property of the adf components like "input text box" . I got the result. :)

Can I use more than one version of Adobe Reader on an iPad, 8.1 touch and 11.1

Can I use more than one version of Adobe Reader on an iPad adobe Reader Touch and Reader 11.1 . . I use Acrobat XI Pro although I had some old files that were stored on adobe.com from a prior version of acrobat 9 student edition.
I guess the same question for my Surface Pro2 Computer might apply, although I gather from what I read that you shouldn't have two versions of reader on a computer.

If I may add a qualification: on a device running full Windows 8, you may have both Adobe Reader Touch and Adobe Reader (normal desktop edition). This does not apply to the primitive devices which cannot run desktop apps (running "Windows RT"), and while I may be wrong, I believe that the Surface 2 is such a device.

Can u use more than one apple account on your device and itunes

Can u use more than one apple account on your device and itunes

Yes, but you have to logout of one, and login to the other.
If it is an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch and you buy apps on different accounts, when it comes time to update an app, you have to specify the password for the account used to acquirer the app. You change an iOS account via Settings -> Store -> Apple ID (tap on it), and start by logging out and then you can enter the other Id
So it is possible, but it can also be a pain.

Since downloading the iOS on my iPad, I cannot download more than one pdf from mail to iBooks. I have to shut down y iPad and start again. Any suggestions?

Since downloading iOS on my new iPad, I cannot downlaod more than one pdf from mail into iBooks. I have to shut down my iPad and restart it to save a second pdf. Wasn't a problem with the old operating system. Any suggestions?

It seems that I have solved my issue by performing a full factory reset (erasing all content, something which I had hoped to avoid) restoring from an iCloud backup did not alleviate the issue, I had to set up as a new iPad.
Hopefully anyone else else who has this issue in the future will be able to find this.

As long as the profiles are different (ex. HID vs AD2P) you will not have any issues. But say if you try to use 2 keyboards at once, it won't work. Or 2 headsets at once. Your scenario seems fine.

I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
Or get/setup IMAP accounts.

Use more than one look and feel in the Portal

Hi,
I'm searching for a solution to use more than one Theme in the portal. It's not based on user or a role. One and the same user should be able to enter the portal and depending on his adress he should be rooted to A or B theme.
We are usein EP6 sps13.
Kind regards
Michiel Veenemans

Hello,
To my feeling you should be work with display rules.
You probably have user who need one theme and other user you want to give another theme. By using display rules you can assign a theme to one user group and another theme or themes to another group.
So depending on the group the user is assigned to you get another theme. This way everybody uses the same URL and a theme can be altered with the default user functions.
Best regards,
Frederik

Using more than one PU and PC for the same database

I have a scenario described here: [http://www.seamframework.org/Community/UsingTwoParallelNestedConversationsWithParentAtomicConversation|http://www.seamframework.org/Community/UsingTwoParallelNestedConversationsWithParentAtomicConversation]
which uses Seam, EJB3, JPA, Hibernate, Richfaces (modalPanel) and JSF.
The question I have is the following:
is there any negative consequence (memory consumption, performance hit, etc.) of using more than one persistence unit in the persistence.xml that points to the same EntityManagerFactory? I was thinking of having one PersistenceContext (Seam-managed PC - an extended PC which is conversation-scoped) which uses one PU and reserving the other PC for the modalPanel forms and backing beans (SFSBs).
The reason I needed to use this solution/approach is so that when using Hibernate MANUAL flush with SMPC, I can achieve isolated synchronization of the PersistenceContext without updating values in the modalPanel forms and vice versa.
Any tips on best practices or alternative solutions? thx.

   </persistence-unit>What happens if I were to have 10 PUs and 10 PCs in the same app? Whether they're all pointing to same DB or not. What's the consequence of using "too many"?

Yes, you can use multiple iCloud accounts in multiple User Accounts on one computer, but, as you know not multiple iTunes Match accounts. Keep in mind that the two services are not the same.
Since you've posted your question to the iTunes Match forum, which it really doesn't pertain to, you might want to also post it to the iCloud on my Mac forum.

Using more than one external drive with apple tv and itunes

I've searched the forums and haven't found a clear answer for this. Is it possible to use two seperate drives for the itunes library? I've already filled up my external firewire drive and would like to get another one.
I've read in several places that people are doing this, but haven't found clear instructions on how its done.
Much thanks!
Brown.Recluse

I don't think you can have more then one folder designated as you itunes library folder, so you can not have more then one drive for your library folder. However you can use more than one drive for you content. I have 6 drives that I use right now. I store the movies and tv shows on those drives. I drag a movie into then library tab in itunes and it just links itunes to the path of the movie. To do this however you have to unclick a option in itunes. It is the menu that you tell the path to you library, you have to unclick “copy to your library” not sure if this is the exact name of this. If you don't do this it will try to copy the movie you dragged in instead of linking it. I actually have nothing in my Itunes library folder. You can also do this with purchased content as well. Just move the purchase content to a drive of your choice from the itunes library. Delete it from itunes. Then drag it into itunes from the new drive. I hope this all makes sense, let me know if you have any other questions.

Can I use more than one Apple ID on one device

I have seen some answers to this type of question before but not that since the ios 6 so will ask again. My household shares an Apple ID and it has worked great as we have added devices and purchased apps. My problem now is this, we have hit a point where I have work things on my iPad and iPhone that I really don't need to be shared with the whole family but it isn't a major deal or security risk. I don't want to give up the advantages of having the household ID. Is there an easy way to have another ID on my iPad and switch between them without having major complications? I am for the most part a techie so not afraid of these kind of things but I can't afford to lose everything right now and take the time to set it all back up so getting advice here. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

You can use more than one apple id, but keep in mind that when apps need updating that you'll will need to sign in with correct credentials to update them.
Share an apple id for the itunes and app stores, but keep your own for icloud, facetime and messages.
