How do I configure my IMac so that I can see/speak with someone using an IPad 2 ? Thank you
The Apple solution is to register for and use separate Apple ID's on both devices and Apple software:
Purchase FaceTime from the Apple Mac App store. (US$0.99 for Version 1.1 last time I checked).
The US iPad 2 already includes the FaceTime App.
I've read that Skype also works with a Skype app for the iPad, but I have not tried it.

How to establish and use MobileMe family email acct created at my iMac on iPad 1 that already has free yahoo mail acct set up on it.
I don't know what the limit is for the number of email accounts that can be accessed with the iPad's Mail app if there is a limit, but it is definitely more than one email account.
Add the MobileMe account - at Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, select Add Account. Select MobileMe and follow the prompts. -
I bought an ipad3 as a present in the US, we set it up in the US, but when it was taken to Mexico, the person tried to activate the itunes giftcard and it says that the ipad has to be configured to Mexico in order to redeem the Mexican itunes giftcards. Does anybody know how to do that w/o having to reset the ipad to the original manufacturer's settings?
You can only use a gift card in the country's store for which it was purchased.
Go to the App Store. Tap the featured tab. Swipe down to the bottom of the screen and tap on the Apple ID. Tap View Apple ID in the popup window. Enter your password. Go to country/region to change the store. -
i can't seem to get my iPad to synch with my new iMac. The iTunes prompt says that this computer isn't authorised although i have registered it on iTunes. Any other ideas for how to overcome this block?
What do you mean by 'registered it on iTunes' ? You've authorised your account on your Mac's iTunes via the Store > Authorise This Computer menu option ? And you've copied your library onto the Mac ?

How do I put junk e-mail in the junk mail box on my iPad automatically like it does on iMac?
Does anyone know how to get junk mail to go into the junk mailbox on an iPad like it does on the iMac?
That is a function of your email providers server when it comes to iOS. The mail client does not have any way to create and run rules.

so my ex step-daughter took my daughters ipad 4 and changed the passcode. she is NEVER giving me the new passcode. my daughters has pictures on there that are very important to her. pics of her late grandfather, etc. how can we get back into the ipad without losing her items??? shes heartbroken..
Removing the "Disabled" will erase the iPad. If you have important files on an iPad you should backup frequently.
How can I unlock my iPad if I forgot the passcode?

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I download quite a few magazines through the app store on my iPad. I just bought an iMac and was wondering if there is a way to transfer those purchases over so that I could read them on my Mac?
You should be able to use the OpenVPN Connect app running on your iPad to connect your iPad to the VPN directly. It is an official OpenVPN client for iOS devices.
In what way is it "not compatible"? Have you tried it? Tunnelblick is an OpenVPN client, so your school's VPN is using the OpenVPN protocol. That means any OpenVPN client should be able to access it. (It is possible, but unlikely, that your school uses encryption that is not available on the iPad, but that would be very unusual.)
Otherwise, a remote control app on your iPad would let you control your Mac at home. "Back to My Mac", for example, would allow you to control your Mac remotely. The tricky part of this is that usually a VPN is set up to send all Internet traffic via the VPN server, and I'm not sure how that would work with "Back to My Mac". -
need to delete this album from my ipad...
icons of iCloud on the right of the songs.
the album appears under artists

the new U2 album that I never asked for keep playing on my Ipad, how do I get rid of it ? seems to come from the iCloud....
when it show a cloud to the right then it's not on your device
it mean that it's tied to y our iCloud account and can be redownloaded should you wish to
if you buy other music from iTunes and don't want it on the iOS device anymore because you transferred to your computer
and wish to add other music then that too will show with the cloud it mean that should you wish you can get it downloaded again free
it's pretty much the same deal in app store app where you can click on purchases and access all apps tied to your appleID

When plugging in an iPad in Apple Configurator, it is not being read under USB Connected so I can't update it. The iPhoto window opens up and reads the photos on the iPad, so it is connecting to the computer. Earlier today I wasn't having any problems. I have shut down the iPad and the computer and started over, but that didn't help. Any ideas on how to get the system to read the iPad so I can update the apps on it?
Hi, is the problem just to update your apps on your iPad? Here is what you should check. Is the iTunes on your computer updated to the latest version? Does your iPad needs to be updated? Do you have enough storage on your iPad to do the update? On your device is your iCloud back up checked?
Go to Settings - iCloud - Backup/Storage - see if its checked, and try unchecking it before connecting it to the computer.
Please let me know if you need any further assistance. -
How do i get pages from my iPad to show up on my iMac?
how do i get pages from my iPad to show up on my iMac?
You will need to use AirPlay to see that.
Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices. -
I installed Pages on my ipad how do i install on my imac?
I installed Pages on my ipad how do i install on my imac?
You will have to buy a separate copy from the Mac
Application Store http://www.apple.com/mac/app-store/
Your iMac runs OS X and your iPad runs iOS - different
operating systems which require different apps. You may
install the copy of Pages on as many iDevices as you control.
and when you download Pages for your iMac you may load
that version on as many desktops/laptops that you control. -
i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?
On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed. -

How does one continue to use Mail on the early MacBook Pro, Model 1,1, that is not upgradable to Lion? I have been running iCloud on my iPhone (OS5) and iMac (Lion) along with the MacBook Pro (OS Version 10.6.8) since November until now. Mail will no longer download on the MacBook Pro and keeps asking for my password.
Mail should still be usable with your machine - but you'll need to update the settings to conform to the requirements of your system. Check with your ISP (like ATT, etc.) for the settings that will work with your Mail. Once you've updated this, you should be able to email like before.
For example, my ISP required that I go to Mail Preferences/Accounts and make sure the details conform to your email settings.
I have no idea of what your ISP is or what the settings might be, but this is likely the source of the problem. -
My employer is issuing an iPad 4 to me, but has informed me that "...I can expect no privacy" with regard to any information on it. What has me concerned is that my employer has also requested that I use my Persoanl iTunes account to syc and update the iPad. I am concerend with my personal privacey, as I have two other iPads that use this account regualary.
My question is: How can I use iTunes to update etc. the company iPad using iTunes without compromising my personal information?
What I have done is to set up a different sign in (is that called an Apple ID?) within iTunes (I now have two different names I can use to sign in to iTunes). They both still use the same iTunes and my personal apps and information appear to be available to my second sign in name (the second sign in name is what I intend to use for the company iPad). When I sync the company iPad how do/can I keep my persoanl information from being syc'd automatically to the comapany iPad?Hi herbie13!
It sounds like you will still want to link your iPad and computer, but you want to prevent the iPad from syncing information from your computer to your iPad. I have an article here for you that can help tell you how to set this up:
iOS: Syncing with iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386
You will want to follow the steps here to set up the iPad for syncing, but when it comes time to sync, you'll just want to make sure that the boxes for syncing the multitude of items that you can sync remain unchecked so that none of that information gets synced into the iPad.
Another note: your second Apple ID will not be able to access the apps, music, movies, tv shows, etc., that you have purchased under your primary Apple ID. Even though it seems that the secondary Apple ID still has access to those items, that is just because you are viewing your second Apple ID through the iTunes Store section on your computer and you have those items saved locally on your computer. You will need to repurchase and download all of the content that you wish to use again on your second Apple ID, if that is what you wish to solely use on this iPad.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

How do I set the "reply to" field in the iPad 2 Mail app? I use an email forwarding service (not an actual email account) that I would like people to reply to, so setting up an account with the correct reply-to address doesn't work because there's no associated outgoing mail server. I had this working under iOS4 but it seems to have disappeared when I upgraded to iOS5.
Welcome to the forum, NicoleYM. I don't think the Touch Mail has as many options as the Mac Mail app. However, you could set a standard signature. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Signature. There you can type a reply address and hope people see it.
Alternatively, you can go to your GMail account in your web browser and click on Settings > Forwarding and POP/IMAP. There you will have an option to forward all emails (or only some, if you set up a filter) to your other address.
Good luck!
