What network is best for Wi-fi connection? and why do I need Wi-fi?

i got a msg for updates for my iphone and tells me I need to have wi-fi for these updates. I need help, not good at this tech stuff

Some app updates are quite large and trying to update them over the 3G cellular network would take too long.  As a result they will require you to be connected to wi-fi to do the update.  You can connect to any wi-fi, either your own (if you have one) or a public hotspot, try the update again and it should complete.

  • What is Bonjour, how did I get it and why do I need it?

    I am going through my computer and uninstalling programs that I haven't used in a long time.  I found a program called Bonjour.  I use I-tunes, so it may have been installed with that.  Do I really need it and will uninstalling it screw up my I-tunes?
    Thanks for any advice.
    Cheers!

    Do you share your iTunes library on one computer with another computer connected to the same wireless network or do you have any plans to do so?

  • What is the best for me ? ?

    Hello,
    I'll buy a Mac soon and i'm confused as to macbook pro or macbook air ... i'm in college now and work with Photoshop and 3D max .. make some short movie .. So what's the best for me ?

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro and MacBook Air forums. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • I'm using Aperture for photos on my Mac, I have near 450G of raw photos and I'm running short on space,what is the best option to imrpove proformance and increase space.?

    I use Aperture on my Mac and have approx 450Gigs of raw files for my photos and growing. I'm running short on space and system is starting to slow down. What are the best ooptions to improve performance and increase space space.?

    important to note that what you are talking about is not a backup
    It is simple to ahve your iPhoto library on an external drive -
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
    And you can have multiple i{Photo libraries - one can be on your internal drive and other on an external drive  --  iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  is a very helpful tool for managing multiple libraries

    iPhone 4s.used to get swoosh sound every time I got an email.  Now I don't and I have to open email for it to connect and get new messages.  What do I do?

    Once you purchase or download an app it will always be associated with the Apple ID used to download it. When that app requires and update you must use the Apple ID and password used to download it in the first place. The only way around this is to delete the apps the require the old Apple ID and download or purchase them again with the new Apple ID.

  • HT5282 What security is best for my MacBookPro and iMac? I have had some company asking me to join them to 'clean' and get rid of some unused files. Is this ok, the cost if around $40. I don't mind paying but I am a bit worried they might not be approved

    Hi,
    Am new at this. What security is best for my MacBookPro and iMac? I have had some company asking me to join them to 'clean' and get rid of some unused files. Is this ok, the cost if around $40. I don't mind paying but I am a bit worried they might not be approved by Apple.

    I have had some company asking me to join them to 'clean' and get rid of some unused files.
    Does this company know you use Mac OS X? If so this is a worrysome trend.
    For a couple of years now there have been several scam artists that call you, claiming to be from 'tech support', or your ISP or even Microsoft, reporting that your machine has been idenfitied as being infected and that you need to give them access to your machine to 'clean it up'. In the process of this 'clean up' they thoroughly hose the system by trashing important files and then demand more money in 'recovery fees' to restore the system.
    I've laughed in their face whenever they've called me since they have no clue of how to compromise a Mac system, but if they've started to target Mac users then more vigilence is required.

  • What is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?

    For I-phone and I-pad, what is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?  I turned off wifi in my settings but my boss thinks there may be another way and a better way to use something else instead of wifi.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thank you!

    Thanks!  That is a very good question you post.  My boss asked me that and I am assuming that he is having issues with using wifi wherever he is at.  My boss is the kind of person that when he asks something you look into it and ask him no questions...he's the only one asking questions!  But thank you for your response I will tell him the information you told me and hopefully that will help!

    what are the best apps to monitor tests and emails on childs phone?

    You could simply log into your child's email with the password that the two of you agree upon, and monitor the emails manually.  As for the texts, you could purchase a separate device, and use the child's Apple ID to monitor the iMessages.  For SMS/MMS, no way to monitor it.  You'll have to use the app called 'Random Parental Inspections'.

    With supervised ipads, what is the best way to transfer photos and videos to the PC? Wireless transfer is not an option in our circumstances.

    There are only two ways of transfering things on the iPad.
      - via WiFi
      - via usb cable
    From what I have read, you need to connect to iTunes on the supervising PC.

  • What IS the best program to use to create an animation, that needs to be viewed in Powerpoint?

    So it sounds like you want to create a form. There are really two approaches, either Acrobat (AcroForm) or LiveCycle Designer (XFA form). LiveCycle Designer comes with Acrobat Pro, but it's an entirely separate application.
    For an AcroForm, you'd create the underlying document in a page layout program (e.g., InDesign), word processor, or some other software and convert to PDF. Then in Acrobat you;d add the interactive form fields and any scripting you want. You can also add other types of interactive elements such as links, bookmarks, multimedia, etc. You can add a button which when clicked initiates an email with the filled-in form attached of submits to a web server.
    For an XFA form, you'd normally create the entire document in LiveCycle Designer, particularly for a dynamic forms. There's a lot that PDF has to offer that's not available with XFA forms, but XFA forms can do things AcroForms can't. For a good discussion of the important differences between the two types of forms, see the following article: http://acrobatusers.com/blogs/thomp/so-what-difference-between-acroforms-and-xfa
    For a form that needs to be saved with Adobe Reader, the document needs to be Reader-enabled. When such a document is opened in Reader, it will unlock certain functionality that Reader does not have otherwise, such as commenting, signing digital signature fields, and most important saving. But when a document has been extended this way with Acrobat, there are licesning restrictions. In short, if you distribute an enabled document to more than 500 recipients, you are allowed to use data from no more than 500 forms that have been returned to you, including hard copied. If fewer than 500 recipients, there is no such limit.

  • HT1473 What is the best way to covert Cassettes and LPs to CD so it will be recognized on iTunes?

    What is the best way to convert cassettes and records to digital so it can be recognized on iTunes?

    I think hhgttg27 has made a couple of very good points. Perhaps it's worth expanding the discussion.
    hhgttg27 wrote:
    I'd be tempted to say that unless you already have audiophile equipment and/or the LPs and tapes involved are not available in digital format you'd spend a lot less time and get better results just re-buying the music on CD or in a downloadable format.  Trying to deal with defects in the source (particularly the pops and clicks that are present in a lot of LPs) can be incredibly time consuming, and any of the tools that claim to clean up such sources automatically generally do so to the detriment of the overall audio quality.
    I have made these conversions myself in the past, and I can confirm, it is a very time consuming process. I usually clean my audio of the clicks and pops manually, which makes the process even longer. As also stated, if the music is available in digital form, it is probably easier to simply buy the digital file. Consider the benefits:
    Since you are creating digital files, ignore the cost of a CD and consider the cost of ready made digital files. Digital albums usually cost less than a CD, and if you don't want a complete album, it's possible (with most albums) to buy only the songs you want, which reduces unnecessary costs
    It will be much less work. (In many countries, the cost of one digital version of a song is probably equivalent to about six minutes of paid employment. When I first started creating digital versions of my vinyl, it was taking me up to four-and-a-half hours to turn one album {of 60 minutes} into digital files. So to create a decent quality file of a four minute song could take me 10 minutes or longer. I could probably do it in less time now, but I'm experienced.)
    Higher Bit Rate songs are available for some music, if 256Kbps (as supplied by iTunes and Amazon, among others) isn't good enough for you
    The time taken to create a decent digital version of a song includes:
    The time to record it (real time, so a four minute song takes four minutes)
    Editing the start and finish times, so that you have a clean start and finish to the song
    Editing out faults, such as clicks and pops (this is probably the most time consuming task)
    Typing in the song information
    song title
    album title
    artist
    track number
    genre
    year
    extra information for compilation (various artist) albums
    Saving the file - giving it a filename
    Finding the artwork for the song/album and adding that to the digital file
