With iPad 2 I can use Messages to text other iPhone users, but not others.

With iPad 2 I can use Messages to text other iPhone users, but when I try others I get the big red x on the contact. I have upgrade to Iso 6. According to the help on Messages, it should have the capability to text outside Apple Products

I suggest asking Verizon. Standard SMS text messaging is a cellular carrier function.

That setting is only related to iMessage. It causes iMessages to be resent as SMS if iMessage fails.

I can't use my iPad mini for what's app? I was using same app on my iPhone 4S but not possible on my iPad mini that uses sim direct why?

Is it possible to download what's app software from the apple stores?

That's right. The app developer has not made an app version available for the iPad. Conatct them for any further.

I have an external HD with PDFs that can be opened with Windows XP and 8 but not Windows 7. Different version of Adobe reader and Pro on the Windows 7 systems does not make a difference.

What Reader version you have on Windows 7?
Can you open such a file with Notepad, then copy and paste the first few lines here in the forum?

Messaging between BB and iPhone works but not between BB and iPhone.

I have an iPhone and an iPad 2. I am able to exchange messages between my daughter's Blackberry and my iPhone but when I try to send a message to her BB from my iPad I get a message stating that her phone number is not registered with iMessage. Can someone explain why this app works on one device but not on the other.

That's right. iMessage on iPad ONLY works on other iOS devices, like iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch, running iOS 5 or higher. If you want to be able to text non-iOS users, there are apps for that, such as TextFree.

Can I move highlighted text to the comments but not underlined text?

So I just upgraded to Acrobat from Reader yesterday so I could take notes on books for school. I found out how to export the comments from a PDF to a new document using a JS, and have enjoyed using the following:
// Get the comments in this document, and sort by author
this.syncAnnotScan();
annots = this.getAnnots({nSortBy: ANSB_Author});
// Open a new report
var rep = new Report();
rep.size = 1.2;
rep.color = color.blue;
if (annots) {
rep.writeText("Summary of Comments: By Author");
rep.color = color.black;
rep.writeText(" ");
rep.writeText("Number of Comments: " + annots.length);
rep.writeText(" ");
var msg = "\200 page %s: \"%s\"";
var theAuthor = annots[0].author;
rep.writeText(theAuthor);
rep.indent(20);
for (var i=0; i < annots.length; i++) {
if (theAuthor != annots[i].author) {
theAuthor = annots[i].author;
rep.writeText(" ");
rep.outdent(20);
rep.writeText(theAuthor);
rep.indent(20);
rep.writeText(
util.printf(msg, 1 + annots[i].page, annots[i].contents));
} else {
var msg = "No annotations found in this document, %s.";
rep.writeText(util.printf(msg, this.documentFileName));
// Now open the report
var docRep = rep.open("myreport.pdf");
docRep.info.Title = "Comments for " + this.docuentFileName;
docRep.info.Subject = "Comments";
What I'm curious about is if there is a way around having both highlighted and underlined text go instantly to comments. If it's possible to get just one or the other to automatically enter the comments that might save me a ton of time manually copying and making decisions like "is this really worth the extra size of the output file." Those kinds of decisions really slow down my reading process. Rigth now I've been exporting pages of stuff, and even though I can search what I export it's going to become unmanageable.
The only thing I can think is to only copy things that I specifically wanted exported to the comments, and to just do this manually so I don't end up with too much highlighted/underlined text.
(Also, and this one isn't that important...is there a way to save the JS I have been using to all the PDFs that I have? Right now I have just been copy pasting it to each PDF that I make.)
Thanks in advance,
Matt

The forums have mangled the script (which looks strangely familiar ) but if you want to only list annotations with a specific type, add a new line in between these two:
for (var i=0; i < annots.length; i++) {
if (annots[i].type == "Highlight") {
if (theAuthor != annots[i].author) {
and add another closing brace at the end of this one
} else {
'type' has several defined strings, all documented in the SDK. You'd be using "Highlight" or "Underline" to filter.
If you want to run the script repeatedly, you can put it into an Action (using the 'run a javaScript' step). Bear in mind that you can't run it against several files at the same time, as the reports aren't saved, so set the Action's properties to apply only to the currently-open document.

Why can't I receive text from iPhone users?

I recently switched from iPhone to Samsung and now I cannot receive iPhone text. My provider said it is a apple problem with I message. I am frustrated I have followed all the steps to remove my number from the iPhone but nothing has worked. Apple wants to charge me $19.00 to talk to someone. Any ideas would be appreciated.

You may be able to talk to someone to deactivate iMessage without a fee by clicking on "Other Apple ID topics" and then on "Messages and Apple ID" in the following: https://getsupport.apple.com/Issues.action

I want to cut and paste iCal entries on iPad. Have seen a number of questions raised but no definitive answer - is it possible or not? (I use Bento but that doesn't sync with ICal now so can use that solution)

No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
 Cheers, Tom

With IPAD 2 may we use softwares similar to WORD and EXCEL?

There are a number of apps that are compatible with Office documents. Apple makes iOS versions of their own iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) that can be purchased separately. There are also 3rd party combined suites that cost less than the separate Apple apps. Ones often recommended include Documents 2 Go, Quickoffice and Office2 HD.
If you can accept needing a network connection whenever you want to use the apps and have an Office 365 subscription, Microsoft has just released their Office Mobile app, though it has significant limitations. Or a server-based solution such as CloudOn might be an option for you.

If your Mac is using the Lion operating system with recent updates, it will be necessary to download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility 5.6
Select the AirPort Extreme and click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab just below the row of icons
Click the Wireless Network Options button
Remove the check mark next to Create a closed network
Click Done, then click Update to save the new settings and allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart

Check to make sure you are not typing your message in the Subject line. If you are, it won't let you send the message. Cut and paste the message into the Message field and you should be all set.
FYI, you can disable the Subject line from your messages in Settings/Messages.

With iPad 2 I can use Messages to text other iPhone users, but not others.
