Apple iPad and related items (part 2)

Oh, did I miss something? Was big threads nailed down as the cause of the slowdowns?

From our very own mods forum:

Slow searches on "On The CD Player Today (take 5)" (18,680 posts and already closed) and "Apple iPhone and related items (cont.)" (8,149 posts) and similar threads seem to be dragging things down.

You can merge the threads back if you like, but there's been ample reports of slow server issues recently. I was going to do the iPhone one next, but I'll leave it.
 
Crispy on original ipad thread said:
No, all your iphone apps will run on the ipad. Some will be 'universal' apps that have proper ipad interface built-in. Others will run in pixel-doubled mode, which is usable, but looks all blocky. VLC is a Universal app.

Excellent, im really looking forward to getting apps like the TED one, and flickr, vlc, bbc news (or maybe reuters) etc etc on there......

Can anyone recomend some good music making apps? I fancy giving that a little bosh too.....
 
Heh wonder if some Apple love will accuse the Ed of not touching the Android threads in a similar way in future. :D

Splitting up threads in a monumental pain in the arse and I'd be happy if I never have to do one again, whatever the topic.

Electrify seems to be the hot ticket, for a full featured synth workshop. There's also a full version of rebirth if you like your 303,909,808 thumpy thumpy
 
Oooh i didnt even think about the apple one...

I like the captureone ones, but id like a flip cover to protect my screen when its in a bag.

e2a: Ive been looking at cases, the apple one looks by far the best..... I just dont like the fanboi apple branded stuff, but ill get it :(

Can anyone recomend me a decent word editor? and a decent VNC client? Sorry to keep asking questions.....

Also has anyone tried zumocast? I set it up last night, its fantastic, streams across a network, and you can log in via a web browser from outside your network and view you music, videos and docs..... I havent tried the ipad app from outside yet...... Tis completely free too :) An added bonus is also that you can wirelessly download stuff from your computer to your ipad
 
Does anyone know of any apps that will let me connect to my afp share on my mac with an iPad?

If you enable SMB sharing, there's loads of options: iexplorer, netportal to name two. I can't find a client for AFP though.

Hmm i dont really want to enable SMB sharing through my router, there's much more exploitative software written for pc's to access files systems, rather than through AFP iyswim....
 
Anyone use an iPad for any Web Development?

Are there decent text editors for editing css and html? Is ftp possible? This feels like a silly question...but what about databases?

(I know I should buy a new laptop/netbook but I want an iPad to twiddle the knobs on Rebirth and other music apps)
 
VLC was removed from the ap,p store at the request of one of the developers, because of some GPL licensing issue
 
It's amusing how many things are cited as a bad day or month or year for Apple and yet millions upon millions of people seem to have little or no interest in them and still buy their products. Bit of perspective would be nice...

In fact the same developer who is saying on the videolan blog that he has no idea why the app was removed, and it can't be because of his saying the licences were incompatible oh no way (Rémi Denis-Courmont).
 
A casual observer of the ongoing VLC saga may be forgiven for thinking that developer is a nipple.
