    iCloud Drive-ing me ...

    Right ... Well that's interesting. Last time (yesterday) I opened GR the import button only had the first two options, not the 3rd ('open file from iCD'). But as soon as I launched it today I got a message saying it had been updated - and voila, there's the 3rd option. So I now have the...

    iCloud Drive-ing me ...

    Thanks for the reply. Yes I'm on Yosemite - which I think I'd have to be to be seeing what I'm seeing in Finder. Can you elaborate on your bit about GR hiding the iCD options in obscure places? And I'd be especially interested in what you find when you do start switching between mac-preview and...

    iCloud Drive-ing me ...

    Just getting my head around iCloud Drive here ... My main unresolved question is around working with PDFs (and really I guess other text docs) between my iPad and my iMac. Everything I've so far read suggests that iCD should work roughly like other cloud services, so that I can read (and...

    Slim, basic carry case

    Just to update you all. The CaseLogic bag I settled on has been a definite winner, and I couldn't be happier with the choice. It was also quite a decent price through Amazon. The one thing on my original list of specs that it doesn't quite fill is storage space for A4 sized documents. It has...

    Slim, basic carry case

    Thanks, Michael. Only just found your post. But anyway I've ended up settling on the CaseLogic QTA-110. I think it fits the bill, and I'll probably just get a stiff plastic document wallet to slip into the bag for the papers. Just paid and ordered on Amazon. I'll try to remember to post back...

    Slim, basic carry case

    Thanks, guys (so far). Guess I'll just keep scouring the shops and online … Had a look at the CaseLogic one mentioned by Kaykaykay. Looks possible, but leaves me wondering how the documents would survive after removing / inserting the iPad several times … Documents might fit in the outside...

    Slim, basic carry case

    I'm either an unusual person or looking in the wrong place for something that seems simple. I'm after a pretty basic, slimline case to transport my iPad, a clutch of mainly A4 documents and nothing else, across town for a meeting or similar. I have been using my existing laptop bag, which...

    Remote desktop app for mac over internet

    Thanks for that. Indeed it does appear so. Mind you, I haven't had a chance to test it yet. But looks promising ... So here's hoping :)

    Remote desktop app for mac over internet

    Thanks for that, ssj. I like logmein too, but doesn't the iPad app cost $36? I'd pay that for it if I was likely to be a frequent user. But I'll only use remote desktop access occasionally.

    Thanks guys (both). I'll have a tinker with it when I get a chance, and let you know how I get on.

    Remote desktop app for mac over internet

    Thanks Tim. I am already using Splashtop at home, and love it. It's just that I have a couple of conferences coming up soon, and remote access would be quite handy so I could leave the mac at home. Just not the best timing in relation to the Splashtop development timetable with respect to mac...

    Remote desktop app for mac over internet

    Hi folks, Can someone recommend a free (or cheap) remote desktop app for remotely accessing a mac computer from an iPad 2 over the Internet? Tried some research last night and didn't find much encouraging. Seem to be plenty for Windows machines and a few good options for mac over wifi, but not...

    PhatWare efficiency

    Hi guys, I'm an iPad noob, and still figuring out what set of apps is going to work best for me. The main general area I'm pondering is note-taking at meetings and conferences. I've settled on Notability, and am happy with that for now at least. What I'm now trying to assess is the...
