Short term iPad hire?

2011-04-05 Thread Andrew Schox

Hi all,

Does anybody know where I can hire an iPad for a week or perhaps two?

I know that Hire Intelligence do this, but they don't have any available at the 
moment. Everybody else I've asked only does longer term rentals.

Cheers,

Andrew

Re: Calculating dates

2011-04-05 Thread Steven Knowles

If it's time duration you want to calculate, the spreadsheet within Google Docs 
can handle this by:

Cell A: DD/MM/ HH:MM:SS
Cell B: DD/MM/ HH:MM:SS
Cell C: Cell B minus Cell A

Where Cell A is the earliest date and time, Cell B is the most recent date and 
time, and Cell C is the calculated time duration which spans the date and time 
inputted to Cell A and Cell B. Cell C displays in the form HH:DD:SS

Re: Mail attachments to PC

2011-04-05 Thread Chris Griffiths
I have exactly the same issue.

I zip my files and send. Then ask them to email me back to check they have them.

It's only an issue with Jpgs. I think it just standard for Microsoft programs 
to imbed all RGB jpgs.

Don't think there is any other workarounds.

I'd also be grateful to know other ways.

Re: Mail attachments to PC

2011-04-05 Thread Steven Knowles
Chris, I have this issue with Mail also when it comes to single-page image 
files. I'm not sure why, but a couple of workarounds:

Right-click and Compress the image file, ie. convert to a zip file, before 
attaching. This usually works, although there's a chance that the recipient's 
mail filters treat the zip file as suspicious. Some corporates don't allow 
incoming zip files at all.

If sending a single page image file in a format which does handle multiple 
pages, such as pdf of tiff, add a blank page (Preview can handle this) so that 
you send a two-page document to the recipient.

Happy to hear of easier workarounds and some insight into the underlying cause.

Cheers, Steven

Stuart,

what exactly do you mean by 'the application that calculate dates'? I
presume this app has something to do with calendar dates, not the edible or
romantic ones? I normally look up dates on a calendar; I don't calculate
them.

The only calculation I can think of is the one where you want to know what
day of the week a certain is. In that case I use M$ Excel. I format the
cells in question to Format>Cells>Custom, and then enter something like 'ddd
dd mm '. I then enter a numerical date and the ddd part displays the day
of the week.

That's how I found out that I was born on a Wednesday.

Not sure if this is what you are after but I have an app iTimeZone which will 
show you present, past and future times in other cities, For example if you 
wish to know what will be the time and date in Sydney when it is 10.00 am 28 
March 2013 in San Francisco this app will calculate for you. Cost was $2.49.
