Brand New Ipad Air is downloading slow, and apps are not finishing

I just bought this and am regretting my $600 investment.  I've spent over 4 hours trying to figure this thing out.  Safari is the slowest browser I have ever used.  Apps do not complete downloading/ installing.  I have reset my wireless, and my high speed internet wirks better with all my older pc's.  This is brand new and I don't want to go back to the apple store, or talk to support and be insulted when they tell me it's my wireless. 

I'm having the same problem actually.  I'm thinking it's an issue with the store, not the device.  Even loading up iBooks on my mac has been a bit slow tonight.
Maybe it's just overloaded at the moment?

  • New iPad Air - trouble downloading a complimentary app

    New iPad Air; had trouble downloading certain apps ( iWorks, iMovie, etc.); Apple support advised to set the date one year ahead and to reset the network; advice worked; but still can not download the free Real Racing that came with purchase. Am at a loss for options. Thanks.

    will check with them if I can just transfer to them or if they have it set up to use their specific softwear

  • HT201269 I am trying to transfers my iPad 2 apps to me new iPad Air, but some of the apps did not back up on the computer.  Every time I go to back up the old device, some of the apps don't get transferred.  My big concern is the Olive Tree Bible Study wo

    I have the Olive Tree Bible Study app, which is one of the best tools I have ever used for study and within the app I purchased several resources/concordances that are very useful (plus they had up in the wallet, but very worth it)
    I had it on my iPad 2 and when I went to back it up on my iMac, the app doesn't populate in the apps tab.  This also applies to some of my games but I'm not that worried about losing those.
    I am trying to get those particular apps on my iPad Air.
    Has anyone else come across an issue like this?
    Thanks and I appreciate anyone's time.

    Go into the App Store from your iPad and select Purchased, then select Not onThis iPad, and download the apps that you want.  Because you already own them you can download them again for free ... provided that you are using the same Apple ID as you used when you originally purchased them.
    In fact when I look up the Olive Tree app, it seems like the main app is free in any case.
    Once you are in the app look for some option to restore purchases.

  • I downloaded Itunes on  a new computer but  all my albums and apps  are not there

    Can anyone help me i got a new laptop and it is windows 8. I downloaded itunes but it does not have all my albums or apps and so i am afraid to back up my husband and my iphones or ipad. I can still do it on the old computer but would rather just be able to use 1 computer. I have authorised this computer and hone network sharing. Please help

    To get your apps or your music on itunes you have to log in to your itunes account in itunes then, normally it will automatically find your music and applications...
    You then need to sync them with your computer and I hope you will then have them on your computer.
    Have fun

  • My wife has bought an iPad from a friend. My wife has an iphone with an iCloud account. When trying to connect to iCloud from the new iPad it says her username and password are not authorised. Any help

    MMy wife had bought an iPad from a friend. My wife already has an iPhone, which is registered to iCloud. She cannot acces iCloud from the new iPad. It says her username and password is not authorised. What do we need to do.

    This could be a couple different things.
         The device is not authorized to the Apple ID.
             Continue setup for the ID on the device.
      There is an account issue
            Is she able to get signed in at
                   Appleid.apple.com
                       and manage the account
    Can she get signed in at
      Supportprofile.apple.com  ?
             How many devices are registered to that Apple ID?

  • HT4623 I bought a brand new ipad air, but I am not allowed to download ie. pages and keynotes for free, as promised?

    I bought a brand new ipad air, but I am not allowed to download ie. pages and keynotes for free, as promised?

    The free only counts for devices activated after September. So first you need to activate the iPad (go through all the set up stuff), then, using the same Apple ID you used to activate the iPad, go to the App store and search for Pages, etc. When you download them you should see them for free.
    Being free is tied to the Apple ID used to activate a device. For example, I bought my iPod in June, so I'd need to pay for the apps, which is why they're not universally free in the app store.
    After you activate the iPad it may take a little time for the app store to realize 'yeah, just got a new device, this purchase is free'. I've seen people say they go right in, see it for cost, then go back in a little bit and the apps are now free.

    IIRC, you can only download  a maximum file size of 100MB with cellular.

  • Malware on brand new iPad Air

    I have a two year old IPad 2. my wife has a brand new iPad Air.  In the past five days we have both been infected with malware in the safari browser (and Chrome) which first pops up as ad cash, and then perpetuates to dozens of advertisment pages before freezing. Can anyone please help and advise on how to get rid.  We are in Thailand and suspect this might be chinese?

    If you think there's some malware on your devices, you have to do a factory reset, as I suggested.
    However, there are a couple fo steps you could try to avoid this. Go to Settings, Safari  and ensure that Block pop-ups is ON.
    Then go to Settings Safari and choose Clear Website Data and History.
    I expect Chrome has similar options, but I don't use it so I don't know what they are exactly.
    That should give a you a clean start for Safari. If you think the issue results from a specific website, you can visit that site and see hether you get stung again. If so (a) repeate the steps abaove and (b) never go back to that site.
    If you get the proble with all websites, then you must to do a factory reset.
    The issue on Macs arises when people download (or are tricked into downloading)  malware such as MacKeepoer (an espedially notorious example). It is not possible to download and sintall this kind of malware on a non-jailbroken iPad. The *only* ways you can install on an iPad are (a) via the App Store or (b) via a developer profile or (c) via a jailbreak. That being so, the suggestion from otehrs that the porblem arises from a websitre (or maybe a group of websites) is almost certainly correct. The steps I outlined above will allow you to break the connection with those sites. If that doesn't work, factory reset

  • My brand new iPad Air 2 is making a random popping sound.

    My brand new iPad Air 2 is making a random popping sound and there are crackling sounds when I have the earphones plugged in and browsing with no music. Guy at Apple store could not replicate it when I walked in. Is this normal?
    Should I get it replaced and what are the chances that its going to happen again?

    Around here I've seen many posters that have renamed the ipad air 2 the "Ipop". You should read some of the older posts by clicking on View More at the bottom of the page until you come across it or do a search for Ipad air 2 popping noise. Last I saw it was hit or miss.  Good luck.

  • Can the new iPad Air take panorama photos and/or slo-mo video?

    Can the new iPad Air take panorama photos and/or slo-mo video?
    The specs don't indicate that it can but the hardware seems capable.
    Thanks in advance.

    I find it silly that Apple wont let the camera app on the new ipad air take panorama pictures when 3rd party app do. Apple why make something as wonderfull as the new ipad air, then cripple it with a sub standerd camera app.
    My iPhone 4 that is over 3 years old has the same camera app.

    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • This community is great -- very helpful. What is the best way to read "word" docs on my brand new iPad 2? Is there an app for that?

    This community is great -- very helpful. What is the best way to read "word" docs on my brand new iPad 2? Is there an app for that?

    If you're just reading them from email attachments, you can just open it to "view" the document.
    However, if you wish to do editing and work, you'll need an application. I use Documents to Go, but there are other versions that people are happy with - do a search in the App store for "office suite" or "word processing".
    The next challenge is getting docs back and forth. Doc2Go and others have their own ways to physically sync docs when connected to a computer; you can also email changed/revised/new documents from the iPad to yourself. However, I use a "cloud service" called DropBox that stores docs in the cloud (so I can get to them anywhere) - I paid for the Premium version of Docs2Go to allow that kind of syncing.
