Hey (: I have the new iPad and I want to ask what is "healthier" for the battery : turn the device off in the night or keep it on during the night ? Thank you !

BTW, statements like
"Use the device until the battery has drained to the point of self-shutdown. Basically, use it until it turns itself off."
in articles like the one at http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/ are complete BS and if you do follow their "advice", your battery life will be severely hampered. Particularly if you also follow one of the comments: "Step One.One: Leave the device for 5+ hours before start charging. This will fully drain the battery." Well, the guy that advised the latter certanly doesn't know anyhting about lithium batteries and the damage deep discharging does to them.
Again, what the article (and the above-cited comment) advices is complete b*llsh*t and noone should really do this.

  • I have a new iPad, and it wants to load all my old emails

    I have a new ipad and now that I have added my gmail account to the pad, it thinks that all the old emails (12K) that I have read on my macbook should be treated as new emails. Is there a way to do a mass NO so that I don't keep getting the message "you have ... unread messages, do you want to download them now?"

    Sounds like it is iMap, which functions by synchronizing clients (your Macs) to its server, the behaviour you're seeing is normal.
    I guess the next question is 'how can I change that'
    Make a folder outside of the iMap structure and move mail into it
    And
    I believe you can limit the iPad (only) to a fixed amount of mail (time delimited) to download, look in the settings for your Gmail account (on the iPad)

  • How do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad?  I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

    how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad?  I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

    You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
    Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
    You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
    Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
    In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days.

  • I just bought a new iPad and I want to bring over all my apps from my first iPad but I don't have a computer, do I just use the cloud?

    I just bought a new iPad and I want to bring over all my apps from my first iPad but I don't have a computer, do I just set up an icloud account and upload all the things from my first iPad and then connect the new iPad to the icloud using the same account and sync it?

    No. You configure your new one to use the same Apple ID. Then re-download from iTunes:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    Haven't really used any of them including VLC - actually use netflix on the ipad more than anything. I was able to drop an mp4 into imovie on my ipad and see it there. This was something I had shot as avhcd and converted with turbo.264. Played fine. Probably not what you want for a movie player though.
    Well, turbo.264 is indeed very nice to have - even for converting full-sized movies. (Nevertheless, TechRadar's latest roundup (see http://www.techradar.com/news/software/applications/6-of-the-best-video-converte rs-for-mac-1074303 ; also linked from another roundup at http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/benchmark-excellent-multimedia-converter-handb rake-vs-commercial-apps ) has shown it's still worse than HandBrake in most respects.)
    All H.264 files (assuming they are H.264 level 4.1 or lower) are compatible with the built-in Videos app.

    Those of you who use other players, what do you reccomend? Just curious.
    It entirely depends on your needs. The top players (AVPlayerHD / ProPlayer, It's Playing, GoodPlayer) all have different strengths and weaknesses. I myself use It's Playing the most as I convert everything into MP4 and simply love the DSP's (brightness / volume / saturation boosting). (Its software decoders are definitely worse than those of AVPlayerHD / ProPlayer; however, MP4's are played back from hardware.)

  • I have the new iPad and I could not use I tunes , every time I get an error says "cannot connect to itunes store " please help

    I have the new iPad and I could not use I tunes , every time I get an error says "cannot connect to itunes store " please help

    Sorry, yes iTunes on your computer.
    When I updated my iPad 3 and iPod Touch 4th generation to iOS 6 a few months back, I was able to update the iPad effortlessly over WiFi. but I kept getting error messages when trying to update the iPod over WiFi, so I used iTunes on my MacBook Pro.
    Connect the iPad to the computer, launch iTunes. Select the iPad under the devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update
    If you are using iTunes 11, go to View>Show Sidebar at the top - so the sidebar is visible.

  • I have a new iPad and tried to set up as new, then realized i needed to sign in as an existing itunes user.  I reset my new ipad as new, but now when I sign in using my existing ipad it backs up to the new one I just set up.  I need my itunes on new iTune

    You want to restore from the backup. Do not set up as new. You can read the article that Tom posted above, but it really is pretty simple.
    Transfer any purchases from the old iPad into iTunes, backup the old iPad in iTunes and them sync one more time.
    Connect the new iPad and when prompted during activation, restore from the backup that you just created and then sync with iTunes.
    The new iPad should be identical to the old iPad, but you will have to enter some passwords again on the new device.
    Transfer purchases.

    Mostly because you are not using any capital letters or paragraph returns and your post is difficult to read.

    Many users have lost photos while preforming a restore from backup or upgrading the iOS.   Recall, only photos in the camera roll are backed up to iCloud.  There is a way to turn backups for camera roll on/off, perhaps these users had camera roll turned off.
    Although the current devices don't have the photos, the following is advice for the future:
    Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage,  tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
    IMPORTANT...
    Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream.  If you have been doing that, then you can sync those photos back to your device.
    If you haven't been saving photos except relying on iCloud to store them in a backup, then that is risky, as many users have discovered.  I'm afraid I have no advice in this case - there is no "cure".

  • I have the new iPad and no Apple Map

    I have just downloaded iOS 6 and Apple Map has not appeared. I have searched the entire pad and nothing shows. I have Google Earth but never had Google Maps as such unless they are bothe the same. I have other street finder and turn by turn directions, but would like to see what Apple Map is all about. Any ideas where I can find it please?

  • I have the 'new' iPad and it won't charge when I plug it into an electrical outlet.  It has been charging fine up until last week.

    I have the New iPad and the last two times I went to charge it overnight, it didn't charge.  I tried moving the charger to a different outlet and it would click to indicate that it was charging and then it would stop.  Finally, it did charge, but today it just won't begin to charge.  Is this a common problem?  Very frustrating after paying the big bucks to get the latest iPad. 

    There are probably three reasons your ipad might not charge:
    1. The outlet is. It good. But you've already changed outlets so that may not be the likely cause. Just to be sure double check the outlets with another appliance to make sure the outlet has power.
    2. The charger is bad. First make sure you are using the charger that came with your iPad. Then double check all your connections.
    3. Your connector on the iPad may have dirt in it. Blow the dust out and try again.
    If none of these work your iPad may be falty or you may need a new charger. Goto a apple store and have them check out your hardware.
