Rather to my surprise, it connected immediately, and performance was good.
Using sharepoint on a mac password#
Then I entered the URL, username and password for my SharePoint server. I typed a document in Pages, then went to My Documents and chose Copy to WebDAV. I use SharePoint, which supports WebDAV, might this enable me to open and save documents from Pages direct to SharePoint? This is convenient for me, since I have SharePoint as a mapped drive in Windows Explorer, and it works both on the internal network and over the internet. None of these options appealed greatly, except possibly the last one. The options for opening a document are similar, but without the email or for some reason options.
They save as you type, and you can manage them in a My Documents view within Pages, but if you want to move them elsewhere you have to use one of five options: email, which is cloud storage for iWork apps, send to iTunes for synchronization, copy to iDisk which is cloud storage for MobileMe, or copy to WebDAV. You can copy files to the iPad using a network browser app like Stratospherix FileBrowser, but that works by opening recognised file types.Īs for Pages, how it stores documents is opaque to the user. You cannot simply copy files to and fro over a network. Now, one iPad annoyance is that accessing its storage is more awkward than with a laptop. Therefore I installed Apple’s iWork apps in their iPad guise: Pages, Numbers and Keynote. That is a nebulous question of course – it depends what you use a laptop for – but one essential from my perspective is the ability to create and edit documents.
I’ve been trying out an Apple iPad 2 recently, and one of the topics that interests me is the extent to which it can replace a laptop.
