HT1665 does the smart cover fit on both the new iPad and the iPad 2?

I have both the iPad2 and i just got the new iPad and I'm wondering if I could put on the smart cover that i was using for my iPad 2 on the new iPad.
Thankyou very much,
Yours truley,
Mohammed Madooh

it depends on when you bought the smart cover -Apple changed the polarity of the magnets on the new iPad - Smarcovers bought in late 2011 or 2012 should work - those bought before then will not - for awhile Apple was offering exchanges for free on smart covers that dont work on the new iPad - dont know if they still are - you can call an Apple store or Apple online

  • Does the smart cover fit the iPad 3?

    Does anyone know if the Smartcover that was launched with the Ipad 2 will fit the new iPad as Mr Cook seemed to over look ths at the keynote?
    Thanks

    Yes, from all reports it will. The Apple Store is jammed, though, so I can't get in to confirm.

    Also, when I check out the hardware list, under Disc Burning - the following is reported:  No disc burning device was found. If the device is external, make sure it’s connected and turned on.
    The disc drive worked fine prior to the HD upgrade and OS update to Mt. Lion.

  • I have scratch marks from the smart cover(polyurethane)

    I got this APPLE iPad2 early Febuary 2012 & now it's April. I took the smart cover off only twice. When I took it off today a piece of metal came off. Also the smart cover left a 2 marks on the side of the ipad & there's a dent on the magnetic strip on the smart cover. I do not have protection for this ipad. With the one year limited warranty does anyone know if APPLE could replace this or am I out of luck? I do not like how it looks seriously.

    I, i think I had the same problem as you ... I had a big scratch on the bottom of my iPad .. So I called apple and they set me an appointment at the apple store... At the apple store They did persist but they finally changed my iPad and my smart cover for new one ... I hope it helped you ...

  • Will the smart cover damage the other side of the screen?

    I notice that the smart cover magnetically attaches only on one side of the ipad. However, i on a number of occassions left the smart cover in a position where it made contact with the other side of the ipad where it doesnt magnetically attaches. When this happens, the screen blanks out for a moment, until i get the smart cover out of the way. Can someone enlighten me on does this blanking out of the ipad screen or having magnetic stuffs touching the ipad damage any parts of the ipad? Thank you so much for joining this discussion!

    No, the minor magnetic interference of the cover will not damage the device. Rest easy

  • Does the iPad 3 smart cover fit the iPad Air?

    does the iPad 3 smart cover fit the iPad Air?

    No - if you look at the specs, the sizes of the two devices is quite different.

  • Does the Smart cover stays on the new iPad?

    Does the magnets can stays on the new iPad or are incombatible?

    The Smart Cover will stay on the New iPad.  There have been reports that the magnets is some may not turn the screen on and off, but it will certainly fit and provide protection for your screen.

    I'd take it into my local APple store and have them look at it. There may be something wrong inside your device.

  • What does the Smart Cover do? Shut it off or just standby as the lock button?

    Hi:
    Is the Smart Cover any must to have? Isn’t standby/turn off/lock the iPad 2 with the Smart Cover the same as pressing the lock button? What does it really do the Smart Cover to the system?
    Thanks!

    The smart cover puts the iPad to sleep when it's over the screen, as soon as you lift it up it turns on. You can also use it to prop up your iPad

  • So I have an iPad with the smart cover, and it's usually supposed to turn on the iPad when u open it, but it's no doing that for me. Nor is it turning off without pressing the button. What is the meaning of this?

    So I have an iPad with the smart cover, and it's usually supposed to turn on and off the iPad when u open it and close it, but it's not turning on for me. Nor is it turning off without pressing the button. What is the meaning of this?what caused it to be this way? Is there someway that I could fix it?

    Wait a sec did this just start?
    You set up the smart cover function in settings (you did that, right?) so, if you did that and it's failed you make an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar now.

  • Why does the coating of my iPad 3 is faded by the magnetic connection of the smart cover?

    Hello!
    I can recommend you do the following:
    1/ Quit Mail completely via the Mail-menu
    2/ Open the Finder and find the go-menu near the top left corner of your computer display (not the Finder-window) Choose go to folder.
    Copy-paste the following line into the field that appears, including the ~ :
    ~/library/mail/v2/maildata/
    3/ Move all files that start with "envelope" and "ExternalUpdate" to the trash. Don't empty the trash in case we need to restore these files (which is not likely, but still)
    4/ Restart OS X. Open Mail. Now it will re-import your existing mail. Is your issue solved after this?

  • Does Apple replaces iPad That have been scratch by the smart cover ?

    Hi everyone !
    Yesterday I found that I have a big scratch on the left side of my iPad third gen... This scratch have been made by my smart cover ... I called apple and they said that it's not suppose to happen ! I also read on Internet that when your iPad has this problem apple replaces yours for free ... Is that true ... Sorry for my bad English ;)

    It would be difficult to prove that the scratch was caused by the Smart Cover and not by some accident that you had.
    is that so?

    to be fair, apple gave me a new ipad and a new smart cover, but im pretty sure this will happen again.

  • When the smart cover turns of the iPad does it turn off the wifi turn off too?

    Am I running down the battery if I don't turn off wifi before I close the smart cover?

    Jfd-
    Closing the smart cover only puts the iPad to sleep.  As far as I know, it puts WiFi to sleep as well.
    There are some Apps such as the Music App, that may continue to play after the iPad goes to sleep.  If you really want to turn off the iPad, hold down the Sleep button for a few seconds until the "Slide to power off" arrow appears.  When the iPad is turned off this way, you turn it back on by holding the Sleep button until the Apple logo appears.
