Why iPad mini retina smart unlock/lock function not working when I using 3rd party cover with magnetic

I recently bought a leather case from store with smArt unlock/lock function with magnetic. I try to use it on my iPad mini retina when I try to close and open it doesn't work. I already on my smart unlock function inside setting. May I know where is the magnetic area  of iPad mini retina ?

The "Lock/Unlock" feature is enabled by installing a compatible Smart Cover/Case (or third-party equivalent) with an embedded magnet in the correct position in the cover. Are you using a real Apple product? If not, the cover/case you are using may not have the magnet in the right place or may not even have one at all.
If you ARE using a real Apple Smart Cover/Case and you have an Apple Store nearby, have them check both the case and cover you are using. You may have a bad magnectic switch on the iPad or a faulty cover/case.
I also remember reading here of a Smart Case/Cover which had the magnet installed upside-down and was repelling rather than attracting. You might want to take the cover off and flip it to verify this...you'll have to slide the cover around in different positions on the right-hand bezel on the iPad to see if you can activate the magnet.

  • IPad Mini Retina Smartcover unlocking / clicking

    Hello folks,
    my iPad mini retina is clicking many times when the smartcover is on (unlocking sound), have anyone the same issue?
    Here's a vid (at the end, my 100 error logs): http://youtu.be/DsNSV4eMusM
    When I put it on a desk and it clicks 2-3 times, although it is not moving. But when it is in the bag, its also clicking (battery draining. yay! )

    Hello FlyFishNevada,
    It sounds like you cannot see the home screen in iTunes when you have the Apps tab selected for your device. I would try first, if you have not already, restarting both the computer and the iPad.
    Restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

    If the issue persists, try the troubleshooting in this article for iTunes installed on Windows 7.

    If the issue still is not resolved, I would next backup the iPad to your iTunes library, and then restore it.

  • IPad Mini retina screen orientation problem still not solved?!

    I have also been having the screen orientation problem on my iPad Mini retina. I cannot find out what the problem is or how to solve it. The switch does not help it and neither does changing the settings.  Nor does rebooting. Also, the volume on the retina is definitely lower than the ordinal iPad Mini. If I had known this I would've kept the original. I am on IOS 7.1.2.

    If you have Reset it, Restored it from Backup and Restored it as new and none of these helped then you will need to get it serviced.

  • Partner function not working when creating PO with ref to PReq

    Partner function is not working when creating a Purchase Order with ref to a Purchase Requistion, Partner functions maintained in the vendor master are VN, OA & PI.
    But OA & PI are not appearing in the PO header partner tab when created with ref to PR.
    however it works when i create the PO directly ( without the PR ref )
    I am using the same material & Plant for both manual PO & PR to PO.
    Any idea what could be wrong .
    I have maintained the settings for schema groups for vendor master & purchasing doc in the partner determination.
    Thanks
    Dkmurthy

    Hi,
    I have also an issue that seems similar to one you are discussing.
    When we use ME59N and create a PO with ref. from a PR (created from a sales order), the message determination works well, it reads the condition set in MN04 (condition records for messages), and creates a message (with output type for EDI , medium: 6, and partner function LS: Logical system). Message is created and idoc is sent.
    When we try with ME21N, ME21 and we create the PO with ref. to the same PR, either by entering manually the PR in the document overview of ME21N or by selecting the PR (without entering the PR number), i.e with date, the message is not created in the PO.
    Company code is assigned to purchase organization, and so is purchase organization to plant.
    Any idea why there is no automatic message determination in the case of the transaction: ME21N
    Note: If I try ME21N, and enter the output type and partner, manually, I receive a warning message
    VN006 (Partner XXXX does not exist for partner function LS). If I accept this warning message, then message is saved- idoc is sent. However I can not overcome the warning message, if it plays any role, because I can not assign partner function LS to the vendor.Then I receive message CZ 327 (Can not use this partner role).
    Any input is wellcome.

  • Not able to sign into Blackberry Protect. Backup and Restore function not working. "Your device isn't associated with a Blackberry ID"

    Not able to sign into Blackberry Protect.  Backup and Restore function not working. Message is: "Your device isn't associated with a Blackberry ID."  My Blackberry Messenger and Blackberry World is working fine so I am sure its not an ID issue on the phone.  I can sign into Link, Blackberry.com and Protect.  I see my device in Protect but cannot send messages or view it on a map.  Times out with cannot reach device message.  BB Protect on Device has a swirling circle beside the on/of switch.  Cannot turn off.  
    I have deleted Link and re-installed.
    I have reset phone to default(factory) and signed in. 
    OS level is 10.2.1.3062
    BB Link is 1.2.3.56
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I managed to figure this out myself. I had to delete the device from the Blackberry Protect website.  protect.blackberry.com.  I wiped my device again and signed in with my Blackberry ID.  I dont know if the step of wiping was necessary as I did not try my backup with the current configuration on the device following the delete.  Restore is in progress for me!

  • IPad mini retina smart cover

    hello - does anyone know what the difference is between older smart covers and the one which are releasing this week? Is it just colours? (Apart from adding the white one, I don't see what the difference in colours either...)

    Hi Leemrt,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    See this article for tips on cleaning your Apple products:
    How to clean Apple products
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3226
    iPad Smart Cover and Smart Case—polyurethane
    To clean your polyurethane iPad Smart Cover / Case, first remove it from the iPad. Use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Wipe the front of the Smart Cover / Case and the inside with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove any dirt.
    Don't use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean the polyurethane Smart Cover / Case.
    iPad Smart Cover and Smart Case—leather
    The iPad leather cover/case is made from natural aniline leather. Its appearance will change as you use it. It may acquire a patina and may change color due to the oils from your skin and direct sunlight, further enhancing the natural look.
    Cleaning the leather may affect its color. If you choose to clean the leather, first remove the cover/case from your iPad. Use a clean cloth with warm water and mild hand soap to gently clean the leather. Wipe the outside and the inside with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove any dirt. You can also use a mild cleaner along with a dry clean cloth. Mild cleaners or conditioners may help remove some stains but may also change the color of the leather.
    Keep your iPad leather cover/case away from prolonged intense sunlight, heat, and humidity. Exposure to water, oil, makeup, and dyed materials (such as denim) can stain tanned leathers.
    All the best,
    Jeremy

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘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.

    just bought a MacBook Air and using Numbers to make a spreadsheet for financial purposes.  The sum function is working ok for whole numbers but when I try to sum a column of 2 decimal place numbers the result always comes back as 0.  Can anyone help?

    Hi laura,
    I suspect that your 2 decimal place numbers are formatted as text. Change the format of the column to currency and see it that works.

  • Loudspeaker and Lock Button not working? Will Apple replace my phone with a new one?

    My loudspeaker hasn't been working for a few weeks now, and recently the lock button has stopped working too.
    I've never dropped my phone in water etc. for the loudspeaker to stop working, and the lock button suddenly just did not work anymore - jammed in?
    I booked an appointment with the Apple Genuis Bar, will they likely repair my phone or give me a refurbished one?
    Cheers.

    Apple will not repair this iPhone, you will get a perfect replacement iPhone 4S exactly like yours, except it will function perfectly.
