Can iPad Air be hooked up to AOC desktop monitor? How? We have older person in home needs larger screen. Thanks.

YYou can connect with the cables listed above or with an Apple TV device. Keep in mind that and ipad is what it is and was made to be used as it is. I can tell you first hand that what you are trying to do will likely not be of assistance since the ipad is still required as the user interface. Connecting to a larger display maybe fine for watching movies if that's what you have in mind but for overall use the ipad will still have to be used and thus looked at to type and touch. Even with a bt keyboard there are still to many limitations That only a mouse can solve along with a keyboard and display.
All said, you may be better off looking into, and perhaps using along with the bigger screen, some of the features that can be found in (general-text size) and (general accessibility) settings. Other then that, if you are not mindset on the ipad experience, there are other products on the market that are better suited and more affordable. I have provided care for my mother in law from here 80's to mid 90's. Been there, done that.

  • My iPad air will not charge connected to my monitor or my computer. Why?

    My iPad air will not charge connected to my monitor or my computer. Why?

    Short answer:  Computer USB ports don't deliver as much power as the power adapter that comes with the iPad.
    Details:
    Full size iPads come with either a 10W or 12W power adapter.  The mini comes with a 5W power adapter.
    See iPhone, iPad, iPod: Using iPad Power Adapters
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327
    USB ports on computers deliver 2.5W (USB 2, 500mA x 5v) or 4.5W (USB 3, 900mA x 5v).
    Newer Macs with high power ports can deliver 5.5W (1100mA x 5v).
    See Apple Computers and Displays: Powering peripherals through USB
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4049
    If you connect your (full size) iPad to a computer USB port, it may charge slowly, but since it's getting less than half the normal charging power, it may say "not charging".  It may charge slowly or it may not depending on use (screen brightness, processor load, etc.).  If you really want to charge it from the computer, put the iPad to sleep.
    The best charging solution is to use the Power Adapter that came with the iPad.

    I concur. You were sold a used/demo model that is essentially useless since it is already associated with an AppleID. Take back for a full refund OR a new sealed-in-box replacement.

    The new but not-ready-for-prime-time autocomplete method searches for matches that contain the entered text, not just ones that begin with the string. Your options are:
    1) type in longer strings that narrow the search
    2) use an add-on to search just the beginnings:

    You make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and get it serviced/replaced. You broke it. If you can't even force a reboot, there's nothing much more you can do.

  • IPad Air- PDFs in Safari are black pages. How can I read them?

    I've had my iPad Air a month, and couldn't open PDFs in Safari; they appeared as black pages. I downloaded Adobe Reader from the App store, but it made no difference. The advice given here all seems to relate to Mac OS, not iOS. The iPad is my only computer. I have deleted the Adobe Reader,  and I tried another free PDF reader, but the black pages persisted, so I deleted that reader too. PLEASE.PLEASE PLEASE can somebody help me read PDFs in Safari? Adobe were no help; there's nothing about PDFs in 'iPad for Dummies' or in the iPad User Guide. I'm at my wits end!

    I did a reset, after deleting Adobe Reader AND iBooks, and then downloaded iBooks again from the App Store. This was on the advice of an Apple support advisor, who thought that the Adobe Reader was interfering with the  native iBook's ability to read the PDFs. THIS WORKED! Suddenly I could see PDFs and had a toolbar with 'open in ' options!
    I hadn't realised that iBooks was Apple's own PDF reader, so I had thought that I needed to get Adobe Reader in order to see PDFs.
    It does beg the question as to why things aren't explained better in user guides and manuals. Couldn't even find info on PDFs in 'iPad for Dummies'.
    Anyway, thank you for the suggestion; it was certainly on the right track.

  • Can iPad Air sleep when cover closed be disabled?

    An advertised feature of the function of the iPad Air is to automatically enter sleep when the Smart Cover is closed. My wife tends to start listening to a YouTube movie in bed and then closes the cover of her original iPad so that the display goes out and continues to listen to the audio. I'm considering getting her a new iPad Air, but wonder if the auto-sleep feature will interfere with how she is used to doing things. Can the auto-sleep feature be disabled? Can it be made to only affect the display and still allow audio streaming to continue? Apologies if I am just behind the times -- we currently have no iOS7-capable devices.

    The Auto Lock can be turned off, but it will not put the screen to sleep. You can cover the iPad and the video will continue to play, but the screen will not turn black and go into sleep mode. You will simply be covering the screen.
    When you put the iPad to sleep, YouTube Videos will quit playing. You can no longer play YouTube Videos in the background in iOS 7.

  • My IPAD Air won't swipe to access programs.  How can I get into the IPAD?

    I have an IPAD Air that won't swipe to turn on any of the programs.  I can't access anything including the home screen.  Is there a way to bypass the "swipe" to get in?  Of course, the warranty just ended.

    Hi Try a Reboot press & hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo You will not lose any data. If this doesn't work do a Factory Restore. Cheers Brian

  • Can ipad air be charged any where in the world on any voltage?

    Hello ,
    i am curious can i charge my ipad air on any voltage, like if i travel to uk,canada or to pakistan, can i charge my ipad without any converters regardless of the native electricity . ?
    In short do i need converters for every country that i visit ?
    Thx

    An iPad's charger is rated for 100 to 240V, 50 to 60 Hz (that's written on the label on mine) - this page (assuming that it's correct) doesn't list any countries that are out of that range : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country
    Here in the UK it's 230V, 50 Hz ; Canada is 120V, 60 Hz ; Pakistan is 230V, 60 Hz
    All that you might need is a plug adapter, not a converter
