A lot of computers don't provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.

I just bought a new iPad air and have not been able to download kindle app to read my books. When I type kindle on my iPad app page, kindle app does not appear. What do I do to get this app into my iPad air?
Hi norlowski,
Do you already have the Kindle app downloaded to an iPhone or another iPad? Do you have "Automatic Downloads" turned on under Settings>iTunes & App Store for Apps on your iPad?
You might want to try touching and holding the Kindle App option in your Purchased list, and when it highlights, let go, and it will go to a a detail page for the app with another "Open" option on it. See if it will open from there.
If you do have Automatic Downloads turned on on the iPad, turn it off, and then go back to purchased to see if the Kindle is still showing as "Open".
Post back with results!
Cheers,

I just got a new iPad air and started going through the set-up process. Now, I can't swipe to power down or power up. Advice?
Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected. -
Just got my new iPad Air and noticed that the screen calibration is off. For example if I select the circle to place something there I have to select outside of the circle to make it happen. I did not have this issue on my previous iPad.
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
If no fix, Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

I just purchased a new iPad air and need to transfer the data from my old iPad to the new one. I have to return my old iPad to my company on Mon 2/17/14
Connect the old iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy your purchases off it and over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, then take a backup of it (File > Devices > Back Up) and restore that backup onto the new iPad (restoring a backup onto a different device won't copy passwords, so you will need to enter your email account passwords, router password, and any passwords stored on Safari on your new iPad).

I have a new IPad Air and when I turn the screen nothing rotates anymore like it should
I have a new IPad Air and when you turn the screen it doesn't rotate anymore
First thing to check is to see if there is a circular arrow around a small lock at the top right of your screen next to the battery indicator. If there is Rotation Lock is turned on. You can turn it off in the Control Center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and find that icon in the panel that comes up. Tap on that icon to turn off Rotation Lock.
If Rotation Lock is not on try a reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem. -
I just got a new ipad air...it's telling me to connect to a network...I've chosen my home network, which requires a password...I put the password in, but there is no button to press to accept the password. Can someone help me get past this roadblock?
You need 8 characters or more to connect.

Just got a new ipad air. Followed set up instructions, but have a lot of somebody elses photos. How do I delete them please?
If its a NEW iPad, there should be nothing on it.
If you have photos from someone else, then its either a second hand iPad or possibly a Demo unit.
In which case you should return it as you may run into activation lock on a used iPad, or restrictions placed on Demo units you may not be able to bypass.
Whoever sold you this, did not sell you a new iPad. -
new ipad won't charge but i can download everytthing but the top says not charging and its at 20%
That is perfectly normal with the new iPad. Your USB port does not supply enough power to charge the iPad. This is copied from Apple's web site about the iPad battery.
Charging Tips
The quickest 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. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode. 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.
You can read the rest of it here.

When I turn my iPad from one side to the other the icons don't change is there some way I can fix that in the settings
I assume that you mean that the screen doesn't rotate. Settings>General>Use Side Switch to...see how that is set. You can choose lock screen or mute sounds.
If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it,swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to the control center. There will be a lock icon in the row of icons at the top. Tap that icon to unlock the screen.
If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button -
How can I change the sign in so they ask for my Apple ID, not my husband's. This is a new device.
Hi Marmee14,
If your Apps were purchased with his Apple ID, it will still require his Apple ID to update them. If they were purchased with your Apple ID then it will use yours. Apps are linked to the Apple ID they are purchased with.
If, for some reason his Apple ID is set somewhere in the system, this article gives how to change it.
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
For example:
App Store
iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store.
If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, sign in with your current Apple ID.
If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID, tap your previous Apple ID and tap Sign Out. Then enter your current Apple ID to sign in.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

New iPad Air and "other" storage
I just got a new iPad Air and plugged it into my computer. I synced it with my iCloud and updated it to iOS 8.1.1 (it had iOS 8). The usage bar already shows that 3.2 gigs are being used by "other". What would this "other" be? That is a big chunk of space for being a brand new "empty" iPad. iCloud stuff should not be included in the storage because it is in the cloud, correct? Thanks in advance for any help!
Most of it is IOS 8.1.1 itself.
