Using a Tablet with Infinity

Hello Community,
At the ripe old age of 67 I am considering purchasing a tablet to complement my laptop at home. I currently have BT Infinity Opt1 at home with black Hub3 I believe and would ask for help and information on the following.
I assume I will be able to use my tablet at home within a reasonable distance from the hub. First out of the box, again, I presume the device will detect my hub's signal and link to it. And lastly, will I be able to use it out-and-about away from the home hub. I have heard the terminology "Hot Spots" but how do I know where they are and if I am near to one.
I hope I can link up with my original BT Broadband service with my tablet and not have to upgrade or find another provider to do the same job.
I do not have agreat understanding of these things and would ask for your help on this matter which would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

Welcome to this forum.
Yes, you can connect a tablet computer, there is a BT Guide here.

This only applies to Android tablets, which tend to be the most popular, as they are cheaper.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

Using a tablet with Photoshop CC

I'm using Photoshop CC with a Wacom Intuos tablet. I'm sort of inclined to think that the issue I'm having has more to do with a tablet setting than a Photoshop setting but I was using this same table with CS6 and I don't think I was having this problem but either way I'm sure I'm not the only one on this forum who's used a wacom tablet with Photoshop so hopefully somebody can help.
With the paintbrush selected if you press and hold with the Wacom pen then brush options appear in a floating box. Can I turn that off? It's screwing me up because anytime I want to draw just a short line or spec it seems to bring the options up and doesn't draw my line. I sometimes like to paint textures on whatever I'm working on by making several specs of various colour and layering them up, but those short specs are pretty much impossible cuz it doesn't seem to realize I want to paint unless the pen is moving a bigger distance.
Like I said, this seems like it's probably more of a Wacom issue than a Photoshop issue but I can't find any settings to change that seem like they would fix the problem. Anybody out there know how I can fix that?
Thanks!

I was having same problem using Photoshop cc and windows 8.1.
I first noticed when I was using clone tool. If I held down pen to start painting from clone source the dang circle appears with brush options.
Here's what I did to fix it.
Make sure your tablet is plugged in and working.
Go to Windows Control Panel
Select Hardware and Sound.
"Pen and Touch" should be listed, and select "Change Tablet Pen Settings".
A dialog opens. Look for the box that has the line inside that says "Press and Hold", and select that line.
Then press Settings button under box. This opens a new dialog box. At the top you need to UNCHECK "Enable Press and Hold for right-clicking". Hit OK, etc.
That seemed to fix problem.
It seems under windows the default way pens work is that pressing and holding is equal to a right click. So unchecking that turns this off.
I also disabled "Flicks" as well in same dialog box and I thought it may affect how my pen works when drawing.

Using a tablet with pages

I just bought a Bamboo tablet and was wondering if I could use it directly with Pages.

KB,
See this discussion.

Is this the only tablet that can use iTunes? Or can you use Android Tablets with iTunes?

I'm looking into buying a tablet... But can i get my music from iTunes onto different tablets like the android 2.2...? Or just iPads? Can someone please help?! I'm going black friday shopping soon...!

Nope, I personally do not like android.
I find it to be annoying in a lot of little ways.
I have used both a phone(galaxy s) and have a cheap tablet(archos 70).
The only reason to get an android device is if you can not live without being able to fiddle with 100's of different settings, widgets, screen animations, etc to totally customize the device or you cannot afford an iPad and will accept one of the cheaper tablets realizing you are getting a pretty poor substitute.
In the case of cheap tablet-Nook Color tablet is probably best choice. In another month or so xda will crack it and have some really good ROMs for it.

Using graphics tablet with Ipad2

For those of us who would like a stylus experience with fine detail, from an artistic perspective, or much more accurate handwriting input -- does anyone know of a graphics tablet (that uses a fine detail stylus) that can be used as the input device for an iPad 2? I imagine it would have to employ some kind of app to make it work. Anybody gone down this trail yet??

Doesn't exist.
These people have no problems with art on iPad:

Using a Tablet with Logic 8

I was just given a Bamboo Pen and Touch and tried using it with Logic 8. Unfortunately they just don't seem to be communicating correctly and I've found that I can only move the cursor with the pen poorly and I cannot click on anything. Using fingers on the touch pad is similarly buggy. Any chance Anyone has experience with this and nows of an update or driver for this problem? Thanks

a bit unrelated i know. I'd wait to see what Apple announces later this month (rumored Touch/Tablet/giant iPhone). Something like that could potentially be an amazing controller for Logic and Final Cut.

Sure ,and I'd love to have one(which i probably do when it comes out LOL) but definitely is not gonna cost the same as the Bamboo or replace my mouse that's not currently working

Good point. I saw the price for Bamboo pen and touch. Very cheap. You got me thinking now.
Found a good price at Amazon...I'm thinking that probably it won't let me do what my imagination believes I could...Draw the automation with the pen for example...LOL but maybe it could be possible.... why I can draw in Photoshop or Adobe products and not in Logic hehe
I saw this on YouTube which got me thinking of finding a cheap touchscreen instead

Just watched it ,it's great..but most of the good quality touch-screen monitors available are very expensive considering that the Tablet will be soon for sale and ....I can imagine the app developers will make amazing apps especially for that .If you find a good deal though give us a shout

Using a Tablet with Mail

Hey, I have a tablet and would like to be able to write in my emails in mail. How do I do this? Thank you! Oh, and one more thing, how do you (if you can) give someone points in this forum?

Hi iceman. See this Help doc for comments on Inkwell Apples' hand writing recognition software:

Apparently, if you device supports it you should see a System Preference pane labeled "Ink"

What is the fastest/ best DNS to use with Infinity...

I'm using a seperate DHCP server in my home LAN which gives me the ability to asign different DNS servers. Ive previously used Open DNS which seems a little slow, so I'm currently passing the routers IP address as the DNS server which works fine, but I suspect it is sub optimal. Based on the experience of you folks, what are the best/fastest DNS servers to use in conjunction with Infinity (Specifically 100 Mb FTTP)?

Hi
Nice find ducllum just ran namebench and it found the same dns server in your post was 175 percent faster than the standard ones I was using.
EDIT: I found the saved file
I can see the difference

Today I deleted a gmail account using my computer. I also added a new work gmail address. Now I want to sync my phone and tablet with the new email address. I've looked all over and can't find out how to do it.

Hi there T&P63385!
Look no further! I have the answer for you! You can add a new email account to your android device by following these steps: http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=31401
Now I do want to let you know that your phone has a "main" gmail account. If this "main" gmail account was the one you deleted it may be best that you reset your phone and activate it to your new gmail address.
The reason I recommend doing this is all of your purchased application information is also tied to your gmail.
Ensure your personal information is backed up (contacts, pictures, etc) and follow these steps to Hard Reset your phone:http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=31308
Let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks,

Can i still use a care call phone line with infini...

hi i have placed my order for bt infinity i have been thinking i have a care call phone for my dad which connects to the phone line via an adapter, can i still use it with infinity?
or will the phone socket take away the compatability?
thanks
mark

If your care phone adapter is plugged into your BT socket,then if you get infinty installed I think that the only thing that the engineer will update is the master socket.
He/she should fit a new faceplate to the socket for the infinty data line [it has 2 outlets],you will still have a normal phone outlet,and I think that your care phone adapter can be used as normal.
But others might not agree.
Keep an eye on this thread as pthers might post thier responces.

I used the article "How to connect Sony Tablet with adb protocol through USB?" Article ID:474705. E

I used the article "How to connect Sony Tablet with adb protocol through USB?" Article ID:474705.
Everytime I restart the computer now I get a open with window.
When I select Notepad and open it I get
0x54c Noswal\.android\adb_usb.******
How do i undo that.
If it helps the Article ID:474705 this says at one point
3. Open a shell prompt and enter the following command: echo "0x54c" >> $HOME/.android/adb_usb.******.
I gues that's what's creating the problem.
Please help.

Hi elishacuthbert.
Try disabling the start-up items in your computer to troubleshoot the issue. Follow the steps mentioned below:

Using a Table PC Like a Intuos Tablet with Photoshop

I use an Intous tablet with my desktop PC to edit my photography in Photoshop. While travelling I've been using a laptop and a small Bamboo tablet.
I'd like to use a simpler travelling solution, a tablet PC if I can use it like I use the Intous tablet.
Does anyone know if this is possible? It would be great to use the tablet PC instead of carrying around a Bamboo tablet.

Wacom tablet: can I use Graphire XL with USB port on keyboard

I have a tiny Graphire 2 tablet with pen and mouse. It works fine with my iMac G5 keyboard.
I would like to use a larger tablet, I have been considering the Wacom Graphire4 Classic XL A5 Tablet & Pen, but I would prefer to use it with the spare USB port on the iMac keyboard.
Does this tablet work with the USB port on the keyboard?
Thanks.

I am not sure if the USB port on the keyboard may have enough "power" to power up a bigger tablet. You may have to plug it behind the iMac or into a powered-USB hub.
Cheers

Troubleshoot using wacom cintiq 21ux pen tablet with Photoshop cs5

Hello to all.
got my new Cintiq 21ux today. ! its my first pen tablet and i really love it !
i worked it perfectly on my photoshop cs4 and after watching some videos and reading articles i decided to upgrade to CS5 and that is when all the problem started.
long story short it seems like every time i open photoshop CS5 my wacom keyboard shortcuts and the pen calibration feat' vanish like i never did them and i need to re do them again from scratch.
to be more percise with my broblem:
I spent about an hour fixing the all the keyboard shourcuts on the Wacom "Tablet Properties Shortcut" menu (from the control panel) and i calibrated the pen.
after installing photoshop CS5 I lunched it and when i grabe my pen to try and work in the cs5 i got a messeage "Pen display tablet calibration reminder". i got the same message when i used the tablet for the first time and to my suprise when i went to the "Wacom Tablet Properties" menu - all the shortcuts i made disapper as i have never done them....
I maid a new keyboard shortcuts for the photoshop cs5 and closed the "Wacom Tablet Properties" menu. i opend it again just to make sure that the shortcuts had been saved and they had.
i opend the photoshop cs5 for the seconed time and when i moved my pen close to the tablet i got again the pop up window with the messeage "Pen display tablet calibration reminder".
needless to say - all my keyboard shortcut vanished again as never been maid.
i am using a strong pc computer with windows 7 and i have i downloaded and installed the latest cintiq wacom driver - the 6.1.5-3 driver version.
thx in advance @
Pini

Das sind irgendwelche Fehler im Wacom-Treiber in Kombination mit bestimmten Grafikkarten und PS' Hardwarebeschleunigung. Eine wirkliche Lösung zu dem Problem habe ich noch nirgendwo gesehen, aber vielelicht hilft ja das Ausknipsen von OpenCL oder andere Grafikeinstellungen im System.

Using Refine Edge with a tablet

When using Refine Edge with a Wacom tablet is there any way to change the brush size (when using the Refine Radius and Erase Refinements tools) other than with pen pressure?
I realise that most tablet users like changing brush size this way but personally I am more comfortable using the keyboard shortcuts.
Am using CS6 trial with mac Lion.
Would appreciate any thoughts, Mark.

r-bin, I did try that, exactly as you suggested but it doesn't work for me, thanks for trying.
May be because i run cs6 on XP. But i can do this trick that looks like a bug.
