When you can use Airplay without the need to connect to a wireless router?

My question / request is, when you can use Airplay without the need to connect to a wireless router? Able to connect your iphone / ipod touch / ipad to your Apple TV directly without a wifi router, something like a "Airplay Direct"

Does the airport time capsule eliminate the need for my cisco linksys wireless router?

does the airport time capsule eliminate the need for my cisco linksys wireless router?

I understand that your network now looks like this:
Modem > Security Router > Cisco/Linksys router > Devices
If you do not want to use the Cisco/Linksys router and use a Time Capsule instead, then your network would look like this:
Modem > Security Router > Time Capsule > Devices

Can u upgrade iPad so you can use it without wifi?

Can u upgrade a iPad 4 to be used without wifi?

As in using cellular? You can't upgrade it without selling the one you have and buying a different one.
Another option for you, look into a device like a Mifi (that's just verizon's name for it)
It's a portable wifi hotspot that uses cellular data and you can connect your ipad to it.

Are there apps that you can use in Europe with out phone connection

Going to France, and other parts of Europe, and would like to use the GPS on the phone without using phone service. Is there an app that you can preload the maps, and just use the GPS on the phone to find location?

There are 100s of apps in the App Store that will load local maps onto your device. Some are free, some aren't.

Having lag problems on the XBOX 360 - connecting to WRT160N wireless router.

Having lag problems when playing on the XBOX 360(wireless connection) after we installed our new WRT160N wireless router. Looking for ideals on how to fix this performance problem?
Cable Conpany: Comcast
Modem Model: zoom
Wireless Router Model: Linksys WRT160N

A few more thoughts:
- Changing the channel settings does NOT achieve anything. I manually tried every setting with no success.
- Changing the encryption settings did not help. I tried "open", WEP and WPA and none of them work.
- Even when this problem shows up, the xbox360 wireless adapter successfully finds and associates with the wireless network. It even manages to read data from the network - it just does it VERY SLOWLY and disconnects often. This causes extreme lag in xbox live games, which shows up as unpredictable play and disconnects from games.
- The fact that G-only mode works fine pretty much proves that this problem can be fixed with a firmware change. The xbox360 wireless adapter and the WRT160N can definately talk to each other using 802.11g successfully so there must be some issue with negotiating the correct version of 802.11x.
- I've considered trying a third-party firmware, such as DD-WRT to see if this fixes the problem. Has anyone tried this and if so what happened?
If you are seeing this problem, please reply to this thread and say so. If enough people respond perhaps Linksys will fix the problem. Even if you're not registered with this board, registering is very quick and easy so don't let that deter you.
Thanks

How to use iMac w/Airport and DSL connection as a wireless router ???

My iMac G5 (with Airport) is connected via Ethernet to a DSL modem.
I want to connect my iBook G3 (non-Airport) wirelessly through the G5 to access the internet in a small home network, (without a standalone router).
I have a USB adapter (ASUS wl-167G) and MAC OS drivers for the iBook. I seem to be getting a connection to the Airport card in the G5, but nothing to the modem with Safari or Firefox.
I need some detailed instructions on setting up the iMac to access the DSL normally AND pass through a wireless connection for the iBook.
Future plans are to buy an Airport Express for stereo and printer purposes.
If using the Express will greatly simplify what I'm trying to do here, please advise so, (and how), and I'll get one now.
Thanks
Ken

Thanks sig, but I am already set up that way. Also in sharing>internet>
Airport options: channel-automatic, firewall-off, services-on (file sharing,Etc.)
Network Status shows: Built -in -Ethernet, active and a IP address. Airport, sharing is on and using Airport and an ID #
I also tried setting Airport to channel 11 (what the USB "Dongle" is connected to).
Still no joy.
I think I may need to manually configure both Airport TCP/IP in the iMac, and the USB Adapter in the iBook but I don't know what values to enter for IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Router.
In way over my head, here. Any additional help is greatly appreciated.
Ken

HT204291 can you use airplay on the iPad first generation?

I'm trying to use my first generation Ipad to connect to my apple tv, can I use mirroring on ipad 1?

You can use airplay bur mirroring is only on iPad 2 or 3 as it requires more processing power.

I am using numbers in the new iWork. Just bought it 10 days back. I am not able to figure out how to add serial umbers from 1 to 100( for example) also i need to freeze the top header like in windows so that we can browse down without the heading going of

Hi Jay,
Be aware that "Freeze Header Rows" and "Freeze Header Columns" apply only to rows and columns that are Header rows or Header columns. You can have up to five Header rows, Five Header Columns (and five Footer rows) on a Numbers Table.
"Header rows" is a special designation. Besides being able to be frozen, Header and Footer rows are not included in formulas referencing whole columns, making it possible to place formulas such as =SUM(B) at the top (or bottom) of column B without causing a self-reference error, These designated rows are also not included in sorts of the rows in a table.
Regards,
Barry

roaminggnome was referring to the page that you posted from i.e. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292
You've tried contacting iTunes Support as it suggests on that page ? If not then you can contact them via this page and see what they say (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

How can i stop an error message that comes up when i am using word? the error message is "word is unable to save the Autorecover file in the location specified. Make sure that you have specified a valid location for Autoreover files in Preferences,-

how can i stop an error message that comes up when i am using word? the error message is "word is unable to save the Autorecover file in the location specified. Make sure that you have specified a valid location for Autoreover files in Preferences,…"

It sounds like if you open Preferences in Word there will be a place where you can specify where to store autorecover files. Right now it sounds like it's pointing to somewhere that doesn't exist.

I have an ipod touch 4g. I want to use our internet hdtv as a monitor so others can see my screen in 40". Sony guy said that can do it wirelessly through the internet router instead of Hdmi without the need for an apple tv.Is this true and how do I do it?

As I said above, I want to view my iPod screen on our new 40" Sony Internet full HD TV.
I know that you can do this via HDMI but a Sony guy said that you should be able to do this wirelessly by going through the router. Is this true and can I do this without the need for the Apple TV?
We are soon going to get the airport extreme, so will it work with that?

1. Is it a smart TV?
2. If so.... Is the TV connected to the Internet?
3. If it is.... Check if your iPod and your TV share the same IP address (Wi-Fi network)
4. If they do.... Then you should go to wherever your "Other Media" tab is.
5. After that.... Search for you iPod. Because it is connected to the same network, it should recognize the device they same way AirPrint does.
6. If you happen to see this fail, then try this method:
1. Do you have a Bluetooth-enabled computer/laptop?
2. If so.... Enable the bluetooth on the computer/laptop as well as your iPod.
3. After that.... Your iPod should be actively searching and it should find the computer/laptop.
4. If it did.... Transfer the file onto Windows/Mac (preferably Mac) and find the program to open the file.
5. After doing so.... Connect your computer/laptop to the TV via HDMI Output Cable.
6. Now it should work!

Is it manitory to have an airport antenna or can you use it without the antenna (powermac g5 dual processor 10.4.11)

On the PowerMac G4 I had it had to be connected, but not sure about the model you have. My guess would be yes due to shielding in the case, but would rather wait and hear from someone else.

Sounds like your phone is carrier locked, presumably to a service provider in France. There is no way to use it with another carrier unless you can contact the original carrier and get them to unlock it. Only the carrier it is locked to can authorize an unlock - some will unlock some won't.
As far as using it jailbroken, you will not get support for that here.
