Comic Books And Network Attached Storage - Download Content Directly From My NAS

Apr 29, 2011

I'm buying an iPad 32gb WiFi next week and was hoping one of you knowledgable gentleman/ladies can tell me if what I'm buying it for can actually be done. I love comic books and have lots (about 400gb worth of cbr's and cbz's) on a NAS (Netgear Stora with a 2tb hard drive) shared over my home network. I'm planning on buying an iPad in order to read them around the house (and on the move by tthering it to a Nokia 5800, but that's a different and less important problem).

What I'd like to do is get the comics directly from my NAS without having to use my PC as a middleman. I'm pretty sure that the iPad won't be able to open the files directly from the NAS and that I'll have to download them onto the iPad in order to read them.

Can I download content directly from my NAS to my iPad? Can I 'load' the content into an app (Comic Zeal) using iTunes without having to plug the iPad into my computer? If I can do this and I manage to tether the iPad to my phone for 3g and I set my NAS to have a static IP would I be able to do this anywhere I like?(hotel, on the road etc.)

And finally (and I'm pretty sure this can't be done) is there a way I can click a comic book on the NAS and read it on the iPad without downloading it? Kind of like opening a pdf in internet explorer (sorry for the PC-centric example, this is my first forray into Apple tech). If it makes any difference, my PC is running the dreaded Windows 7 Home Premium, making life extraordinarily over-difficult for Microsoft's customers since 2009.

Apple Censor Books And Comic Books

Feb 21, 2010

Anyone here waiting to see what kind of censoring approach Apple takes towards books and comic books?Are they going to pull books like Catcher in the Rye or Lolita?I haven't heard of music and movies being censored, but all their App censorship has me worriedI did a google search to see how manga publishers felt about the iPad and most of them were excited about the technology but one in particular said that they were excited but worried about censorship because Apple had recently pulled one of their Manga books from the App store for being too violent.

Comic Books Will Look Incredible On It

Feb 4, 2010

Nice article on comics and the iPad.http://gizmodo.com/5463681/comic-boo...le-on-the-ipadI'd buy an iPad just to read comic books. Think I'm nuts? I probably am, but see how you feel after this first look at what Panelfly, maker of a popular comic book iPhone app, is building for the iPad.Instead of simply scaling up the existing iPhone app, the folks from Panelfly put their heads together with the Sugarcube dev team and brainstormed. With all the talk of the iPad and how it could restore comic books to their former glory, they realized that they needed to revamp the app and make a version specifically for the iPad. This way they could take full advantage of the device's screen size and provide a new way of purchasing and interacting with the content.

Reading Comic Books On IPad 2?

Mar 29, 2011

The primary reason for buying my iPad 2 was to read comic books and I waited for version 2 just because I figured it would be a bit faster etc. I'm glad I did because it shines as a comic book reader! Along with the comics, games (Infinity Blade etc...) and everything else it has to offer, I'm having more fun with the iPad 2 than I remember having with any device.

Download Comics - Comic Book Apps

Apr 30, 2010

Where can you download Comic Books? I keep hearing people talk about one of the comic book apps being the only .cbr reader (??). Does that mean you can go to a website, download a comic book and open it with that app like an eBook? I love the Marvel App but I'd love to be able to read other comics like Simspons, etc Is that even possible? Sorry for being a complete n00b on this.

When I download content via an app such as a video from a news source, does that content remain in the SSD? If so, that would create a lot of clutter and wasted space over time.

I am trying to print documents (ie pdf) from my ipad to a printer that is attached to my network via ethernet cable. The printer is NOT an AirPrint type printer but I can print via wifi from my laptop to it without having to have my mac desktop turned on. Everything I have read about the apps in the app store all say I can print to any printer on my network "via a mac or PC". How do I print directly to the printer since the ipad and the printer are on the same network...

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Printing From Directly From It To Network Printer?

Jan 23, 2011

I just bought my ipad and really have not yet turned it on. I want to be able to print from it. The people at the apple store sold me a printer. I really do not need more printers! Is there an app or some way to print from the ipad to my network printer without going through another computer on the network. There are usually no computers on and I would hate to turn one on just to print. Kind of defeats the purpose of the ipad. I looked at printcentral but I think it needs a computer. Fax print and share pro looks like it may work.
