I have the new iPad. Even with airplane mode on, my battery life is extremely limited. Is there a problem with the battery? I used to have the ipad2 and had no such problem.

What is your brightness setting & how many apps are open?
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I have mi new ipad screen broken in one corner, I was really disappointed because it was drop from about 30 cm so I was not expecting the screen to be broken, well I went to apple store in regents street in London and I was told that I have to pay 250 pounds for the screen replacement, it was a rip off and after many years using apple products I have expend thousands of pounds on them, I just think is a rip off price. It will be difficult but I won't be buying any apple products anymore, I really feel like I was abuse that was half of the price of a new iPad. I have never complain in my life but this time I think apple is abusing me as a costumer.
I'm really upset, I'm furious that apple uses his dominance in the market to Rip off costumers like me.

Is anyone having a problem with the new iPad (Gen. 3) not staying connected to the charger? It seems to ALWAYS get jiggled loose and no longer be charging. My iPad 1 has no issue but I can't browse Internet w/o new iPad unplugging. Horrible!

I notice that my new IPad (3rd generation) will not stay connected to the power cord at all, I'm not exagerating, if I plug it in and browse the Internet without fail it will become unplugged and I will have to push the plug back in (Ba-beep). Ive actually grown to despise that sound when you plug your iPhone or iPad in because it reminds me of how much money I spent on something that PHYSICALLY will not charge while I'm using it.
I know the problem with it holding a charge while in use, I get it, the screen is amazing and it takes a lot to run the display, however, it is unacceptable to me that I can't even keep the thing plugged in while I'm using it. I can not even leave it on my Cal King bed overnight because I will wake up in the morning to find that the plug has been jiggled loose in a corner, so it's still attached but not making a connection thus not being charged.
I love the 4GLTE from Verizon and I love the iPad, but I'm actually using my 1st generation IPad while I am at home so I can leave my new $900 iPad on a table to charge free of incident so I can use the 4G while I'm away from wifi during the day. I have been getting more upset about this because I can not even use the Griffin extended cord to charge the iPad and be far from the plug because only the original apple sync/charge cord will have a better shot at staying in. Absolutely none of my non apple cables will stay in the iPad 3 while having it in my hands.
The plug is at an angle, unlike the first iPad, not sure about the iPad 2. Please let me know if they have same issue.
If anyone else is having this problem with the Gen 3 iPad please let me know because I'm tempted to do something about it with apple and I'm hoping that I just for some reason have a bad cable receiver or something and maybe I can get a replacement and enjoy the iPad as I had expected to. There is no reason why I should be even using my first iPad and I have friends that want to buy it but I am not selling it because I'm unable to sell it because I can't handle the new iPad while it's plugged in, that is ridiculous if it's a common issue so please let me know!

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

I bought the new ipad in Brea Apple store in Oct 1st. I know it is out of return date, but I have bought it only for 24 days. Can I exchange the ipad with retina or give me the $100 price difference?

I bought the new ipad in Brea Apple store in Oct 1st. I know it is only 15days to return or refund. but I have bought the new ipad only for 24 days, and now it
devalueted $100. I can't accept this fact. Therefore, can I exchange my ipad ? or give me the 100$ price difference ?
thanks BTW Do you have any Chinese customer services, I think I can contact you more convenient with Chinese.

Please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The only people who will reply to your posts are your fellow users.
You would need to talk to the Apple Store from which you purchased the iPad. Apple's official return policy is 14 days, though it's been reported that the manager of some Apple Stores have been waiving that limit.
I doubt very much that the Apple Store will have anyone who speaks Chinese, though of course you can ask.

How easy it is travel abroad with the Verizon model of the new iPad?

On the specs listed on Apple's site for the new iPad, it lists GSM frequencies under Verizon model as well !!!
I am sure that one can't use AT&T SIM on the Verizon model, something must have been locked to prevent that.
But does anyone know how easy it is to pop in a foreign country 3G GSM micro-sim when travelling abroad into the new model Verizon iPad?
I have already ordered an AT&T model, but later realized that even the Verizon model shows GSM capabilities. If I could find conclusively about the foreign 3G GSM freedom on Verizon, I will definitely exchange my AT&T model for a Verizon one.

I don't think CDMA uses SIM card at all, hence no SIM slot in ipad 2 VZ model.
But LTE requires a SIM card, the VZ model of the ipad 3 is forced to have a SIM slot.
Here's an FAQ page from VZ site talking about LTE SIM:
http://support.verizonwireless.com/information/4gsim.html
It's good (I am hoping truly that's the case) that Apple also allowed 3G GSM capability, this means one can pop out the VZ LTE micro-SIM and pop in any 3G micro-SIM.
I think there might be some lines of code from Apple to at least prevent an AT&T micro-SIM to work on a VZ ipad 3 just to prevent VZ from getting upset.
But other 3G micro-SIM's should work on VZ model. We can only find out on the 16th.
Here's one article that talks in details on this topic:
http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Mobile-and-Wireless/iPad-With-4G-LTE-Technology-Makes-I t-a-Truly-Global-Tablet-770210/

How/when will AIR support the new iPad?

I believe that the following will be needed:
- new placeholders in app xml for the new iPad retina icons
- a mode that will allow the content done in 'non-retina' iPad to be viewed on new IPad (like the tag that makes iPhone 4 to fill 4 pixels and be used as the iPhone 3)
- a simulator for all AIR environments, which allows the visualization of the iPad retina display (I guess it will have to have scrollbars for the first time in a mobile phone simulator, since the height is going to be 2048 pixels :-O )
- anything left on the list?

ok so i guess its 50/50 so far. stretching to big screen works fine but native resolution does not seam to be supported. Meaning i see pixilization on side of the image. if vector is used it should not be a problem (i guess)
for testing i used high res images from here: http://www.zastavki.com/eng/Motocycles/Harley_Davidson/wallpaper-12206-18.htm just to give proper credit to who ever did the image
So for 1st test i used regualr ipad resolution 1024*768 i used HIGH res setings and placed 1280x800 photo obviously it got cut off, some side of the modules pixelazied but oveall model is ok no big digtortion
Next i inputed resolution to be 2048*1536, image now fully fits in, so i would expect it to be rendered nicely on large canvas yet i have same ordrder pixilization (ani alising needed i guess) I may be a bit picky but i consider interface by Apple to be perfect and our image that seams to be well rendering (externally) gets dissorted
Anyway here is snapshot
Now, lets play with bigger resolution image... i used 1920x1200 resolution source image and HD canvas. Got image to be displayed almost full screen but sides of the images are not that perfect again.
Now i figure that print screens may not shto artifacts of renderings so i took some photos
As you can see around (5) has sitortion even though there is no on original image. This is photo of last test in HD mode full screen large image.
Here is another one
So my conclusion so far, is that 1024*768 and 2048*1536 have sa,e result in both case there is some sort of stratching and smoothing applied by player. Logically higher resolution images should look better on "new ipad" but i did not see that in my test.
Maybe i did something wrong but taht what I have so far! Any comments ideas? Lets get this thing to have perefect output... maybe you have other test assets?

How should I best import HD Videos from the new iPad to my mac without loosing video quality?

The new HD video on the new iPad is awesome, but it can eat up a lot of memory in no time. I would like to know what is the most recommended way to export my ipad movies to iLife on my mac without loosing image quality, so i can free up space on my iPad.
If I use iPhoto I notice that the file size of the video from the new iPad is a lot smaller then if I use iMovie to import the same video.
Example: I import a 53 second video from the new iPad to iPhoto and the imported file has a file size of 143 MB in iPhoto. (iphoto save the video as IMG_0048.mov)
I import the same video to iMovie manually and the imported file size is 843 MB in iMovie. BIG DIFFERENCE. (iMovie saves that same video as clip-2012-03-20 16;13;08.mov)
Now to really be confusing: I go to Image Capture program and locate the file manually on my iPad and is has the same name and file size is what is in iPhoto.
So either iMovie is making the File a lot larger when it imports to an event, or the file I'm looking at is actually the iPhoto version that I get because I sync with iPhoto.
The second issue that I have is that now I have 2 videos on my hard drive: one in iPhoto, and one in iMovie for a combined data storage of close to 1 GB.
I would like to be able to import ALL my iPad recording into iPhoto and then delete the video from the device when done.
But if I loose video quality, I'm not happy about that. Secondly, by importing video from my iPad into multiple iLife programs, I'm creating duplicates with sometimes different quality. Any suggestions? is there a setting in iPhoto that can do all this for me?
Robert

Don't use iphoto to deal with movies. it's not really meant for that. use Quicktime or iMovie to work with your videos

Receiving the new iPad :)

I'm on the east coast, in PA. It is March 16th! Yes, it's only 1:00am, but March 16th nonetheless! :)
This past week has been fun. I keep hearing about all the fun people who are camped out in front of Apple Stores right now are having- sharing an experience, and enjoying conversation with "like minded people". Well, here at this discussion board, we have been doing the same thing- ALL week. :) Its a bit different, yet no different. It's been a really fun week chatting with everyone about order dates, times and locations. Then, later on about couriers, ship dates and tracking info. I'm still amazed at the journey that some of our iPads have been on! They have traveled the world. It's also quite impressive how Apple has coordinated the deliveries of who knows how many new iPads. Pretty fascinating stuff! :) although not perfect, the whole process still impressive nonetheless. :) This past week was really fun, and a nice diversion to the daily stresses that are "everyday life". It was fun feeling like a kid again, eagerly awaiting a new toy. :) The anticipation is half the fun! (although waiting for new iPads can also be stress- inducing, in many cases, too ;)).
The big date is finally here. :) The day many of us have been waiting for.
I'd love to hear about people's reactions and experiences once the new iPads begin to be delivered and the boxes are opened up, and the new iPads are finally home where they belong! :) Can't wait to hear about the new iPads, themselves, and how great the screen resolution is!
This great day is finally here, the day some of us will begin receiving our new iPads! :)

Yes, and thank you to all of the people who actually made the new iPads. Glad you pointed that out. A lot of hard work went into that.
I also read about all of the extra security and trucks that Fed Ex and UPS had for the new iPads. I was wondering how none of them managed to accidentally get delivered before today, and none would be stolen from the waiting areas. I thought surely at least a few would slip through the cracks, but, none did! If they had, we surely would have heard about it. :) That's an amazing operation they have set up. I'm sure it's something to see!
We are impatient, and want everything "yesterday". I know I am, anyway! But, I've never had so much fun waiting for a delivery before, especially for something I've been waiting for for months! Yes, I feel like a kid! :) Except, I'm an adult who works very, very hard, and don't treat myself to all that much, and I feel that I deserve to buy myself something nice. What's the point of all of my hard work for the most MISERABLE, rotton and nasty boss on the face of the earth, for 50+ hours per week, if I can't splurge and treat myself to something nice once in a while? That's how I feel. I deserve this new iPad, for sure! Major difference from being a kid! But, fun feeling like one! :)
I wasn't aware of any new products. Something else to look forward to! I ordered a Smart Case, but, didn't open it yet. Can't wait to hear about new covers that may cover the back. I'll take back my Smart Cover that I just had delivered, then, and get a new one. Or, if they too are sold out, I'll wait for one. I really would like to cover the back to prevent any scratches or damage. I've been looking for a back cover that will work with the Smart Cover, so, this is good news! :)
As much as I hate my job, and hate my boss, I'm really looking forward to going to work today! Work is where my new iPad will be delivered to me! :) :) And, I'm off this weekend. :) do I can play with my new iPad all weekend! It'll probably take me that long to figure out how to set it up. This is my first one. I have the iPhone4, but obviously, that was already set up for me. I bought an iPad2 back at the end of Hanuary, but took it back and waited for the new one. That too, though, was set up for me in the Apple Store! So, this will be interesting! If I need help setting it up, if I go to the Apple Store tomorrow, do you think they'll help me set it up? Or do you have to purchase it there in order for them to help?
Just checked tracking, no new movement posted, although I'm pretty sure my iPad surely must have arrived in my city by now, but just hasn't been updated yet.
I wonder if the delivery trucks will also have security to protect all if the iPads while the drivers are out if their trucks making the deliveries?

What happened to the gig intenet a.c in the new ipads.

I bought the new airport only to find out my new iphone 5S and the new ipads do not support a/c. Really that was a wasted upgrade. I really thought a USB readable drive would have been a nice feature. The cloud is not always a choice.

Thanks for the replays. I am still disappointed in no USB connection for uploading files. As someone who works for the gov they are not happy with cloud storage or transfer of files. I am also in area that have limited wifi and LTE. The MS office is also a issue. I love my ipad but I see these two issue might force me to drag a laptop around and then I won't need a new pad .

Does anyone know what the name of that paintng/drawing app in commercial for the new ipad is called?

Actually - according to iTunes - it is ArtRage

I feel Passbook should be on new iPad, because even if surfing web, and you have all information with you on the iPad and not have to get purse to look for individual information. It makes sense to provide it for the new iPad. PLEASE!

I feel that Passbook should be on the new iPad. My reason is when surfing Internet/purchasing all your information could be on the iPad, and you wouldn't have to check your purse or somewhere else for it. It makes sense to include it. PLEASE include in next update soon. Thanks.

My laptop (win7 2ghz, 1gig) has 100% cpu usage with itunes installed (even when not running itunes) since the upgrade. i had to uninstall. tried installing but still the same problem. my daughter wants the new ipad, but this is a serious problem.

when itunes upgraded my laptop went to 100% cpu usage. only solution was uninstall. have tried itunes again as my daughter wants the new ipad. still same problem tho so not keen to spend £400 on new pad without pc support. anyone help? (ps been using ipod touches 1 and 2, been great source of pleasure for my two girls, but cant sync them, so using the little shuffles for music, syncing to an old version of itunes on an old netbook - had the sense to switch off upgrades when the new version went wrong)

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Wifi problem with the connection of The New Ipad (4G)

I just bough the new ipad ( 2 weeks ago), when i'm at home i usually use wifi connection and it goes w\o problem.
But today after the battery empty, i rechard it like i do,
and while recharing it i tried to update my skype and line apps so i notice this my update went slowly than it usually takes
(it took 20 - 30 mins for one update to be done). I thought
it was because of my internet, so i checked it with my pc but with the pc the internet goes without the problem.
I check other apps again (like youtube, facebook and such..) but everything same so slowly but it has connection.
but with Line it said "please make sure you have internet connection"
so is there anybody who has the same trouble? or any solutions?
thanks lot and sorry bad grammar

Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.

I have a brand new ipad with iOS 6.1.3 and an imac with OS 10.5.8. I cannot update my OS on this machine, but want to sync the new ipad. What can I do?

If it's an Intel Mac, you can upgrade it to Mac OS X 10.6.8.
If it's a PowerPC Mac, you need to use these instructions and/or iTunes Match to put content on the iPad.
