Using iPad maps with no wifi

HI,
im going travelling soon, Im bring my iPad mini retina wifi and I was wondering if I would still be able to use maps with no wifi Connection. I understand that it won't be able to pin point my location but will it still be able to load up maps so that I can manually use it like you would with a paper map.
thanks
matt

Without an internet connection a wifi-only iPad only be able to locate you nor load the Maps app - only cellular iPads have a built-in GPS chip, wifi-only iPads rely on getting their location from the router that they are connected to being in Apple's database.
There are some external GPS units that appear to work with an iPad.
There are also maps apps where the maps are stored within the app, and which therefore don't require an internet connection to download them

  • New iPad Mini with Retina - Wifi+Cellular causing problems.

    Bought an iPad Mini with Retina - Wifi+Cellular last month.
    It is lagging now. Animation during opening of minimized apps, scrolling and games are lagging. Took it to the service center, they said its an OS issue. I am using iOS 7.0.4. Please advice me what to do and will there be any updates soon from Apple for iOS 7? Will the problems be solved after update?

    Do yourself a favor and search the forums on this topic. Many people ask this daily and always get the same answer. Probably, but...
    Check that the LTE frequencies match your operator.
    Understand and accept the fact that if anything goes wrong, the warranty is good only in the US. Apple will not fix it for you in India (or anywhere else for that matter). You will need to physically get it back to the US as Apple does not accept shipped iDevices.
    You will also see that many people run into these issues and then are angry that their iDevices don't work or won't be repaired by Apple. If you're ok with accepting the risks, then it will likely be ok.

  • How to use Google Maps with dvt:map ?

    Native support of Google Maps and Bing Maps API. You can now display
    Google and Bing maps natively in your Oracle Maps (JavaScript)
    applications. Please check out the online Oracle Maps JSDoc API on
    how to use the new classes.Unfortunatly it looks like it's not possible with dvt:map
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/apirefs.1111/e12418/tagdoc/dvt_map.html
    It's an important requirement for our project and probably for many ADF customers.
    I would like to know if :
    Is there any way to use Google Maps with dvt:map ?
    Otherwise, is there any plan to support it ? Should we expect it within a year ?
    Else, I think we will use directly the Javascript Oracle Maps API but we will miss the built-in functionnalities of dvt:map
    Thanks in advance,

  • HT1386 we are using same laptop with my wife for our 2 iphones and when sincronizing, she's getting my apps and is requested for my apple id and password when getting a new app on her device. How can i fix that issue?

    we are using same laptop with my wife for our 2 iphones and when sincronizing, she's getting my apps and is requested for my apple id and password when getting a new app on her device. How can i fix that issue?

    Each phone needs to set its own sync settings on the various tabs in iTunes.  On the Apps tab, for example, uncheck the apps that you don't want on the phone being synced.  This article may also be of interest: http://gigaom.com/apple/itunes-101-multiple-devices-one-itunes-account/.
    You can change the Apple ID used for purchasing on her phone by going to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using her Apple ID.  However, be aware that if she has any apps on her phone purchased with your Apple ID she will still be prompted to enter the password associated with this ID for all future updates of these apps.  This is because apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, regardless of the ID in Settings>Store.

  • Can you use Time Capsule with any wifi extender?

    Can you use Time capsule with any wifi extenders?

    No, since Apple designed their routers to only work with other Apple routers.
    I suppose that it is possible that another brand might work, but since you won't know this until you try, it would be a good idea to have a clear understanding of the store's return policy before you decide to gamble.

  • I already have a sim. do i need to buy ipad 2 with 3g or can i use current sim with a wifi ipad2?

    i already have a pay monthly plan for ipad.. im looking to buy the ipad 2 but have noticed they are titled as 'ipad 2 wifi' and 'ipad 2 wifi + 3g'.
    do i need to buy the 3g version? or do i just use my current sim with the wifi version?

    The wifi-only iPad doesn't have 3G capability (it doesn't have a micro-sim card slot nor the hardware within it to use 3G) - though you could use an iPhone as a mobile hotspot for it or get a mifi device for use with it.
    If you want to use 3G directly on the iPad then you will need a wifi + 3G iPad (if you want to use micro-sim cards with it then don't get the US Verizon model as that is CDMA based and doesn't use micro-sim cards)

  • Can I use offline maps with GPS on the 5C?

    I am going on vacation abroad soon and my new iPhone 5C will be non-roaming because of the stupidly expensive internet data charges when out of the phone provider's home country. I will probably even pull the SIM card out to be 100% sure.
    But I would still like to use it for GPS positioning when I am out walking about and then I must use off-line maps (like I have done with Google Maps on my Android phone).
    Is it possible to download off-line maps to the iPhone while I am in the hotel and have a Wi-Fi connection and then the phone will use the downloaded maps when I am walking about the place outside of WiFi range?
    If so, how do I set it up?

    On the Android phone I have used MyTacks, which I believe is a Google app. I use version 1.1.16 currently and it is NOT able to use cached maps even though I can save maps in Google Maps for offline use while driving.
    So if I use Google Maps I can see where I am now on the downloaded offline map, but there is no tracing of the walked path being done. If I use My Tracks it records the track but I cannot see it on a map until I am back in WiFi range.
    I had hoped for the iPhone 5C to at least provide the possibility to use cached maps when locating my position....
    What app do you suggest I use?

  • Can I use ipad mini with cellular without SIM card

    I have purchased a ipad mini with wifi and cellular, thinking I could use my UK SIM card when required but leave it out when not in the UK. (Live in Qatar)
    I can't activate imessage or facetime, and also I didn't realise it needs a nano sim not my micro sim. I get a cannot connect to network message.
    Do I need to purchase a new sim for the ipad to work properly, I did assume it would work the same as an wifi only ipad if sim wasn't present.
    Thanks

    Thanks James. I was hoping that was the case.
    I've already updated the software, from a quick search that seems to be the network issue for imessage/FaceTime. Is there a fix for this? Ive no back up to go back to.

  • How to use tile map with AS3?

    I have a file that contains a bunch of isometric tiles that I need to make a map with, much like a sprite sheet but not for making animations. So using AS3, how can I divide that file into the different tiles, knowing the coordinates of each of them. Or can it be done automatically in Flash itself, so I can access each tile from AS3?
    Furthermore I've been a programmer for a couple of decades but I am new to Flash. I know there are a ton of DisplayObjects like Bitmap, Sprite, Shape, MovieClip, Symbol etc. But which one would be better to use for that file? I need to access it from AS3 as described above, but I don't need it to react to mouse events, stretch or have children, just extract each tile and move it onto the stage with AS3.
    It seems to be down to a choice between Bitmap and Shape, since they're both lightweight, but I couldn't find out what the advantages and disadvantages of them are, as there was no comparison between those two on Google, though between a lot of the other objects. And Symbol seems like an idea too, since when I googled this, I found a lot of pages saying that you should convert a Bitmap to a Symbol, but I never found out why.
    Oh, and since I'm building an isometric map, all the tiles and all other graphics I'll be using, will be Bitmap and not Vector since I'm drawing the graphics in pixelart.

    create one tile symbol (movieclip or sprite so you can use actionscript to reference tile properties - like its x and y) and arrange them (using code or by hand) into your map.
    enable the cacheAsBitmap property of your map (that has some number of tile children).
    assign the mouseEnabled property of the map to false and its mouseChildren property to false.

  • Who use sql-mapping with java.util.regex?

    Hi everyone:
    I use the IBatis SQL-Mapping and I think it is very good.Now I want to add the search function to my BBS forum.I also want to display the content high light like jive.I mean that if I want to find the string "ibatis",then the search result "ibatis" will be high light displayed.
    So I must use the java.util.regex in jsdk1.4.But the problem is that what I get is a List if I use sql-mapping.For example:
              String resource="conf/XML/sql/lyo-sql-map.xml";
              Reader reader=Resources.getResourceAsReader(resource);
              sqlmap=XmlSqlMapBuilder.buildSqlMap(reader);
              List articlelist=sqlmap.executeQueryForList("selectSiteArticle","%"+icontent+"%");
    The result I get is a List and I have no time to use regex.
    I don't know whether I could do this:
    Iterate the List,use the regex and later place all the object back to the List.
    It's right?
    How to use regex with sql-mapping?Thks

    Any idea? :(

  • I use my computer with my wife, when i downloaded itunes it was on my part of the computer, but one day had my ipod connected to my wifes part of the computer and from then on have always signed into her part, but now cant retrieve my films from my part

    i cant retrieve films from i tunes that i downloaded on my part of the computer i share with my wife, as i somehow selected to sync on her part, now i keep getting a message that says, the ipod paddys ipod cannot be synced .you dont have enough access privalages for this operation.

    I'd wager a six-pack of cold adult beverage that you are still "logged in" to her iTunes account....
    Make sure you are logged in to YOUR computer account, then lauch iTunes.  Go to the Apps Store.  Verify that you can log in to YOUR iTunes account.
    From that point you should be able to get your stuff.  If not you may have to reset to factory and then restore from a backup....
