Use without a wireless provider?

This is probably a really stupid question, but I don't know anything about PDA, so bear with me please.  :-)  I have a program I want to use on a PDA, and I do not currently have.  I looked in the upgrade to one through my provider of wireless, but it looks like it will almost double my monthly bill, and I can't really afford.  So my question is, if I buy a refurbished PDA, I would be able to use it for anything that doesn't require wireless services - for example, the reference program I talk, calendar/Agenda features, tricks of MS office, etc. ?  And I would be able to sync it with my computer, or it would take wireless to do?

In addition, if the device is wi - fi ready, he would take Internet in a box reactive, or requires it wireless for it services?

DRM for putting up with my ignorance.

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!

I will be happy to answer your questions.

PDAS require no wireless service. They may not actually be connected to wireless as a single unit. You might using bluetooth to a wireless device, but not what you need it for. So yes, you can use the device and do not have to pay for a monthly service of any kind.

Yes, you can synchronize Palm PDA to a computer using the Hotsync Manager program. You can synchronize your data in Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook.

If you happen to get a device with Wi - Fi, you can connect to the internet on the hotspots or even at home without service charges.

If you have any questions or concerns, let me know

  • Features of the watch to be used without the phone

    Hello

    I'm new here and that you have a general question for owners of Apple Watch. I think to do a Apple Watch and would like to know what elements can be used without my iPhone right next to / withme. I ask as often, I leave my phone on my desk at work and in the gym, I do not have my phone with me. In particular, I am interested to know if I can use the heart rate monitor and running pace and distance follow-up without having my phone with me.

    I would appreciate any feedback that anyone can offer.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Normal Bluetooth range is about 10 meters/33 feet. Actual range varies in practice because of wireless interference, but you don't need necessarily to have your iPhone on or just around you (scope of arms, for example) for devices to keep their Bluetooth connection.

    Your watch may also exercise certain functions when it is not connected to your iPhone, including some that are available when your watch is connected to a known Wi - Fi network.

  • Touchpad HP Pavilion 17 works does not after using an external wireless mouse

    I have the HP Pavilion 17 laptop.  It is running Windows 8.1.  Everything worked fine until I used an external wireless mouse.  After unplugging the mouse the touchpad does not itself again.  I have therefore no pointer and no touchpad to use unless I have keep the external mouse not connected.  I tried the hard reset with the plug of the battery, unplugging, pressing the power button for 15 seconds and turning everything back on.  Still no work touchpad.  Had this happen last week and called HP because I only had the laptop for 3 days at this time here.  They had me do a system restore to an earlier point.  At this point, everything worked again and I toilet problem has been resolved.  This is why I used the external mouse always thinking that it wouldn't be a problem.  I was wrong.

    Also, I've seen other posts on a different notebook that has a toggle power button in the upper left corner of the touchpad to activate/disengage, but this was not one of these.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  My next step is to call HP again tomorrow and see if someone else has another solution.  I would obviously like the ability to use the touch pad or external mouse at any time without having to restart and go through all these other problems.  Otherwise, this phone pretty may be going back to the store this weekend.  :-)

    Thank you!!

    This fixed the problem! Thank you very much!! Seriously, 3 different phone calls to HP and not one of them ever talked about this easy solution!

  • Settings need to connect a second desktop computer using a NetGear wireless adapter.

    Original title: wireless settings

    I need the settings to connect a second desktop computer using a NetGear wireless adapter.

    The Belkin router work a lot using my Tablet and streaming movies but I can't understand

    the settings on the second PC.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    "Settings", you need are the SSID (network name) and the encryption key (password).

    Unless you have configured the router to 'hide' the SSID (generally a bad idea), you will see in the list of available wireless networks.  Then, the only thing you need is the encryption key.

    If you do not write your encryption key, you can find it by logging into your router configuration utility.

    If you have a computer running Windows can now connect to the router, open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK) and type "ipconfig" (without the quotes) and press ENTER.  Take note of the 'Default gateway' address.  It is the IP address of the router.

    The default IP for Belkin routers is 192.168.2.1.

    On a computer that is already connected to the router, open a browser (Internet Explorer or Firefox) and enter the IP address of the router (the gateway by default, you noted above or 192.168.2.1).  If you do not have a computer that is connected to the wireless router, you will need to temporarily connect a computer to the router by an Ethernet cable.

    Connect to the router configuration utility.  If prompted for a password and you don't remember, you need to reset the router to its factory default.  Return ticket for additional instructions.

    Once logged in, click on "Security" under "wireless" in the menu.  At this point, you should see a page that shows your password.  Write it down and exit the router configuration utility without making any changes.

    For more help, post back with the model of your Belkin router and also mention if you have any Windows computer that can connect to the router (and if yes, what version of Windows they use).

  • A Web site can store data for offline use without asking?

    In options, advanced, network, web content offline and the user data, I 'tell me when a website asks to store data for use in offline mode"checked

    And then in the box below that lists Web sites that are allowed to store data for offline use there is an entry "https://forecast.io".

    This site never asked me to store data offline, and I never did anything to him. The website showed there before, I removed it and now it's back.

    So, since I have the box checked to tell me when a site asks you, means that there is not just ask?

    Yes, a Web site can store data for offline use without asking and can do even if you have checked the option 'tell me when a website asks to store data for use in offline mode', because this option does not work correctly. See the bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=959985

    As far as I know, it does not mean that the site simply "did not", it's just that the option does not work (or maybe only works in the case where the data are larger than the pref in offline mode - apps.quota.warn?)

    The workaround given by cor - el above, must currently off - apps.allow_by_default set to false.

  • Unlocked Firefox OS smartphones can be used on Verizon Wireless?

    Hello. I heard THAT ZTE sells its newest smartphone OS Firefox eBay unlocked for $99. I was wondering if this smartphone can be used on Verizon Wireless in the United States. I noticed in the ad for the smartphone ZTE she currently supports 3 G speeds only and does not support 4 G LTE eBay. Verizon Wireless is a CDMA carrier for 3 g (instead of GSM), so I think the ZTE Firefox OS smartphone, and probably all other Firefox OS smartphones currently available, are not compatible with Verizon Wireless, even if they are unlocked. Any clarification on my question would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Sorry for the wait.

    No, Firefox OS devices are currently feel CDMA GSM carriers such as Sprint and Verizon will not work for two reasons:

    • Different bands
    • GSM uses SIM cards, CDMA uses some form of SIM like Verizon with LTE phones.

    If unlock you, there is a chance very light , that you can get is in Cricket, Straight Talk, MetroPCS, or something similar, but right now (to my knowledge), Firefox OS devices are strictly CDMA.

    Sorry ' end that. Hope that this things clarification for you.

  • Installed beta mobile version, but what is my username, password and especially my sync key? Cannot be used without her...

    Just installed the beta version of Firefox mobile on my HTC Desire running latest updates, to Canada on Tulus. Installed correctly, but in the first configuration screen (Preferences) I wonder at the bottom for info sync... What should I enter, nothing I put in works... Need this info to set up syncs not between my HTC and the computer then what is it? Looking forward to this, but can not use without completing this...
    Would love to get that will sync with my computer!

    When first install you Firefox Sync in Firefox, you would have to create a new account. This process involves the definition of a key user name, password and sync. If you haven't yet set up an account, you can then choose a name of user and password key / sync.

    For more details, see How can I set up Sync on my computer?. The article refers to a passphrase that will be the same as the key to the synchronization, it has recently been renamed.

    Hello

    Put it in a bag of rice for a few days or more. -seal the bag.

    If you remove all the moisture, it shouldn't affect the USB ports if nothing is
    possible. Usually it is not a problem if the moisture is removed.

    I hope this helps.

  • HP4215 printer can be used without phone connection if want to print, scan or copy

    Have a HP4215 printer that has not been used for a few years. Keep allow the family member, who use only a cell phone, and an old Apple laptop for 1 year, to be able to use it to print, scan and copy only - no fax.  If it downloads the driver, and hooks the USB, the printer can be used without a line of phone being installed?

    Hello

    Yes, given the portable computer Apple has USB ports, you can connect your printer to the laptop via a USB port, but you will not be able to print from cell phone. If you want to print anything from cell phone, the quick and easy way: send or copy on the laptop from Apple to print.

    Kind regards.

    Hi Jer9009,

    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.

    ·         Could you give the exact error code or error number you get?

    To connect multiple computers, install a network adapter in each and run a network CAT5 cabling to connect each one to a hub (and thus the other.) The computer that will serve as a transition will have a standard network card for wired and a wireless network adapter that will connect to the wireless (WAP) access point or gateway on the second network.

    A network bridge is software or hardware that connects two networks or more so that they can communicate. You can create only a single bridge network on a computer, but a bridge can handle any number of network connections.

    For more information, see the link: create a network bridge:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Create-a-network-bridge
