What anti-theft solutions are best for the ipad?

Hello,
     I would like to know which anti-theft solutions are best for the IPad. I am ordering several for work and I would like to know. Thanks.

It depends upon how far you are willing to go.  Keeping it locked in a bank vault comes to mind but I suppose you want more flexibility.  Are you talking about physical attachment or just something to discourage a thief, or something to protect data integrity in case of theft? Realize that in many situations somebody may steal something and only later check if it has any value.  If it doesn't they will toss it in the nearest river, but you've still lost it.  As for iPads, a thief can reset one and it's like new.
Find My iPad - http://www.apple.com/ipad/icloud/#find - has to be enabled before device is lost.  It also requires the device be on and connected to registered WiFi network or data service, and not having been restored by the finder (if it was really stolen then the thief has probably restored it).  If you have activated the "Find My" feature, go to https://www.icloud.com or use the Find My iPhone app - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-iphone/id376101648?mt=8
Setting up iCloud (requires iOS5) - http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html - includes activating the 'Find My' feature.

  • What compressor settings settings are best for 1080i  to output to DVD using DVD Studio pro?

    What compressor settings settings are best for 1080i  to output to DVD using DVD Studio pro? I used FCP 6, exported using Quick Time.

    DVDs are only SD. There was at one time HD-DVDs, which DVD SP and Compressor can make, but HD-DVDs will only play in Macs and, now obsolete HD-DVD players. HD-DVDs will not play back in standard DVD players or Blu-Ray players. If you want to make a "DVD will be played on DVD player for TV" disc, your only choice is SD.
    If you want HD video on a disc, then you want Blu-Ray. You will need a Blu-Ray burner (Apple does not make a Blu-Ray burner so you will have to buy a third-party Blu-Ray burner), Blu-Ray discs and software that will make a Blu-Ray disc. That could be the latest version of Compressor, or FCPX, or Toast, or Encore.

  • I have a presentation to make to a customer and need to know how many educational apps are there for the iPad/iPod?

    I have a presentation to make to a customer and need to know how many educational apps are there for the iPad/iPod? More specifically special education apps.
    Thanks

    Keep in mind as well that not all apps are "created equal".  Some are really good, and others are not very good.  You might also want to look at some education sites for recommendations.  An example of a general iPads in education forum is
    http://ipadeducators.ning.com/
    but I imagine some exist for special education needs as well.  Our healthcare organization is using some apps for working with autistic children and find them very helpful. 

  • What's a good forge game for the iPad?

    I was wondering if there was a game for the iPad kind of like Gary's Mod or the forge on Halo Reach.

    There isn't one, and there won't be one. Apple and Adobe could never get a flash player that worked. And now since Adobe has ceased all production on mobile flash, there won't ever be one.
    Your best alternative is to explore the app store for browsers that support flash and see if one of them will do what you want.

  • What antivirus protection do I need for the iPad?

    I am seeing some unusual activity after receiving an email.  What antivirus protection should we be considering for the ipad2?

    None - there are no viruses for the iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch), and therefore there are no antivirus apps available in the iTunes App Store

  • I am using a MacBook Pro and when I open a new tab in Firefox it opens to Trovi. Mozilla has a forum but solutions are all for the PC/Windows. How do I remove it?

    I am using a OSX MacBook Pro running Mavericks version 10.9.4 and using Firefox 30.0.  My Mac has recently been hijacked by a program called "Trovi". Whenever I open a blank new tab in Firefox the tab opens it opens with Trovi. The Mozilla forums offer support but all solutions are for users who run Windows. How do I remove Trovi from my Mac? Please help.

    Hey there! I answered this in another post a moment ago, this may be extremely helpful...I had the same problem until very recently with Trovi.

  • What Mac Pro specs are best for Photoshop and Lightroom?

    I'm about to cross over from PC to Mac. I've got up to 4 grand to blow on it and would like to spend it as wisely as possible. I've decided to take the Mac Pro route, but am unsure what configuration I should go for to keep Photoshop and Lightroom working smoothly. My image file sizes are usually around the 300 Mb mark but they often rise to 700 Mb or more when layers are involved. My so-called powerful Dell PC struggled with these sizes.
    Should I do the obvious and go for bucket loads of RAM and as powerful a processor as possible, or are there more effective moves? For example, would 8 core be a worthy improvement over quad core?
    My image library is stored on separate drives so I could hold back on hard disc space. If any wiser head can advise I would be grateful. Just don't make the answers too techy. I'm no computer boffin.
    Thanks in advance.

    1. Don't buy a MAC PRO now. New ones are to be released in the next weeks (maybe already today as today is Apples WWDC Opening)
    2. Lightroom and Photoshop can use all processor cores you have. So I would go with the cheapest two CPU Model. As an upgrade by example from 2.26 to 2.66 Ghz (current Model) will cost you more then 1400$ for only 15% more processor power which results in maybe 7--10% faster application perfromance.
    3. Don't buy extras at the Apple store.
    4. For the saved 1400$:
    4a. get from a third party provider a total of 10-16 GB of RAM (10 are normally sufficient)
    4b. Additionally I would suggest to get 2 fast SSD Disks with 128 GB (or if you can afford it) 256 GB . Put them in a RAID 0 Array. Put your OSX Files and Lightroom Catalog, Caches and current work files on it.
    4c. Get two 2 Terabyte Drives and run them as RAID 1 for your pictures.  And an additional 2 GB Extra External Firewire 800 or Better eSata Drive for Backup purposes.
    Have fun with a very fast machine.
    Additional question: How are your current storage devices connected to you computer: USB, eSATA , Ethernet or Firewire?
    If you don't know what some things mean, go to a good 3rd Party Apple Seller who gives you fair prices for upgrades.

  • What Specific Firewall Rules are Needed for the DPM Server?

    Hello,
    We want to confirm which firewall ports need to be opened on the DPM server (not protected servers) for all DPM processes, so that we can set these rules in group policy. Below are what we
    think are the needed rules. Note that we have rules for both new DPM 2012 installs and upgrades from DPM 2010 to 2012, since these use different program paths.

    Questions:
    Are any of these rules not needed?
    We know the Agent Coordinator rules are needed on protected servers. Are they also needed on the DPM server (including if we use secondary DPM servers)?
    The DPM Configuring Firewalls TechNet page says DCOM uses TCP 135 and the RPC Dynamic ports. Does that mean we also need a rule that opens all TCP RPC Dynamic ports for
    any program? Or is this not necessary since we have rules for msdpm.exe and dpmra.exe? Reference:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh757794
    What other rules may be missing, if any?
    Note that we do not include rules for ports 53 (DNS), 88 (Kerberos), 389 (LDAP), 137-139 & 445 (NetBIOS) because we already open these ports in other group policy objects.
    Also, the below forums post says two exceptions for SQL Server are needed on the DPM server to allow the Remote Administrator console to work. Is there any documentation in the DPM TechNet site on these rules?
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/aa88fd00-6836-46d3-8a93-edb487109118/dpm-2012-remote-administration?forum=dataprotectionmanager
    Thanks,

    Does anyone have any comments on this post? We would especially appreciate some input from Microsoft reps to help us ensure we're setting up the correct firewall rules.
    Thanks,

  • What is a compatible signal booster for the ipad?

    There are a number of signal boosters for cell phones.  A few of them advertise that they work with aircards.  Does anyone know if there are signal boosters compatible with the ipad or what specifications I need to research?  It would be good to be able to access verizon when I'm traveling if I need a boost in signal.
    Thanks for your input.

  • What is a good protective case for the ipad 4th gen?

    Hi,
    I recently bought my first iPad (ipad 4). I want to get a protective case in case I drop it. Some of the features I want include, 360 degree viewing angle, auto wake and sleep (doesn’t have to have this but would be nice) I don’t want big case like the otter box cases. I want a folio case with different viewing angles.
    the reason i want it to rotate is because i want to record lectures. so if you know of any cases let me know!
    if you could help me out that would be great! I have been researching for over a week! You guys have never failed me before!
    is the ipad smart COVER offer any protection?
    Thanks
    Austin

    For drop protection, you aren't going to get much better than the Otter, but yes it will add some bulk to the iPad (really any high level drop protection case will). That isn't to say other cases will not offer some protection against dropping, but not as effective. The Apple Smart cover offers no back protection at all, and the Smart Case only minimal.
    Not sure what you mean by "360 degree viewing angle" or why it would matter. Any case offering a portrait and a landscape orientation should work. (also not so sure how effective at recording lectures the iPad would be). There are literally hundreds of polio type cases available. Most will offer a number of angles in landscape mode, but fewer for portrait mode.
    Even some fairly inexpensive folio cases offer the smart cover function.
    I would recommend a trip to a full service electronics store such as Best Buy and have a look yourself. Really the only way you will be able to make a decision.
