Can ipad be reprogrammed to use verizon 3g, can ipad be reprogrammed to use verizon 3g
I purchased my iPad from Apple about a year ago with 3G (AT&T). I live in an area that does not have AT&T cell service but does have Verizon. Can I get my iPad software updated so I can use Verizon 3g?
AT&T and Verizon use different technology and the iPads are built differently - the AT&T version is GSM based and uses micro-sim cards, the Verizon model is CDMA based and doesn't use micro-sim cards. One option is to sell the iPad and buy a Verizon model; another option is to get a mifi device (assuming that you can get Verizon mifi devices) and use that as a mobile hotspot for the iPad.

I need to reprogram the delete and enter key to the left side of a external keyboard for the ipad mini. I don't need the caps/lock or ctrl key. Due to a brain injury my daughter can only use her left hand to type. She also uses a text to speech app to verbalize all of her needs since her speech isn't intelligible any longer either. And her vision was significantly affected also, so the keyboard has to be mounted about 6 inches from her face. So to reach across the keyboard with her left hand to the right side delete and enter button is physically difficult and causes typing errors, which cause people to not understand what shes trying to say.
The best keyboard so far is the Zagg folio mini. I just had to make stickers to enlarge the letters on the key buttons.
Does anyone know how I can reprogram these two keys? Or where I can buy a wireless mini keyboard for Ipad made for lefthanders with these two functions on the left side. I have searched for days and days. It's sooooo important to me that she be able to contribute her voice again. Imagine if you got in a car accident and couldn't speak clearly any longer, but understood everything still. Thanks for any help and suggestions you all take the time to share with me. I really appreciate the kindness of strangers to help me help my daughter.

You cannot. -
Which option do I have to select If I buy the latest iPad with cellular feature for international use? If I choose verizon can I just change the sim card and insert one from another country?
I would guess you need the A1460 model

I want to use the 3G in Egypt but I got the iPad 2 Verizon, what can I do?
I can't even find the sim tray...
I had to buy the at&t one?!
Is the Verizon one without a sim tray?!Yes, the Verizon is without sim tray.
You have 2 options:
1) Return or sell the verizon and buy an ATT iPad.
2) Get a mobile device hotspot, like MiFi or similar, or use the iPhone for tethering.
Hope this helps... -
HT5554 can I use a verizon iPad air on a gsm Service?

Can I unlock a Verizon iPad Air to work on ATT?
Can I use an ATT iPad air on a Verizon Service?iPads are not sold locked in the U.S. You can use a Verizon iPad on AT&T. However, you can't use an AT&T iPad on Verizon as those iPads are not in Verizon's databaase.

I have an Ipad with Verizon Wi Fi + Cellular. Can I use this as my sole internet provider for this device?
If you choose but you need to be careful with your data plan and make sure you use wifi at home. This approach will make you pad a sole source so others in tying household will need to use your device. It's really your call.

Can an Ipad 2 3G bought in US be used in Spain with a local phone company contract or is it locked to ATT or Verizon? I am buying it here in the US but will be using it primarily in Spain. Thanks
ATT should be okay, but not Verizon. Look at the right panel, under "More like this", other users have asked similar questions.

I want to buy a new ipad that will be mainly used in south america where at&t and verizon do not offer services. Can the 3G option be used with a local carrier?
Yes, but before you purchase, make sure you know whether the carriers in South America are GSM (AT&T model) or CDMA (Verizon). GSM is much more widely used around the world than CDMA.

Im moving to Spain for school. I have a 32gb wifi+3G (veizion) iPad. Can I use the 3G if I switch to a Spanish cell provider when I'm there?
The US Verizon iPads are CDMA based and don't use micro-sim cards, and I'm not aware of any carriers in Europe that are CDMA based. You could get a mifi device (which use sim cards) and use that as mobile hotspot for the iPad.

Does verizon or tmobile ipads can be use worlwide?
Im planning to buy my first ipad, the thing is I live most part of year in latin america, just few months in the states, so i need to buy an ipad that can be used out of the states normaly, i mean to use a data plan for a non-american provider (nor tyt, verizon, tmobile, sprint cause they doesnt work in latin america).
Ive read that a verizon ipad (verizon a cdma provider) could do that, but keep looking others say that just a gsm provider is able to (like att, tmobile), so im asking to anybody with experience in the topic. which one should i buy?Any iPad Air you buy should be fine. They all have GSM. You'll need to find out if there is a carrier who supports iPhones and who supports 4G LTE.

You can give points by clicking on "helpful" or "correct" in the answers you like. :-)
There are CDMA networks in some parts of South Korea and Japan, I've been told, but they can't work with the iPad (someone posts that back when Verizon first offered the iPad, can't remember when). The CDMA IPad will only work with Verizon in the US. -

Many hotel chains do have wifi. Holiday inn, best western, the choice chain.
My experience is the swankier the hotel the less it offers. Hyatt caters to businessmen with expense accounts. They charge for everything. The more middle of the line hotels are pretty good with breakfast and wifi.
Course this also varies from location to location. Urban hotels are less amenity friendly than rural ones.
Many will tell you on their website what they have in the line of wifi. -
How can i get it replaced?
As far as I am aware CDMA models are only sold in the US so you would need to take it back to where you bought it from for a replacement or refund (and you would also need to be within that store's refund time period). If you have a non-Verizon iPhone then you might be able to use that with a local micro-sim as a mobile hotspot for the iPad, assuming that your phone carrier supports the personal hotspot function on the iPhone, or you could try getting a mifi device and use that with the iPad

Can I use my existing verizon phone data plan with my iPad 2?
I have a data plan with my verizon smart phone. I want to buy an iPad 2 with 3G capabilities but I would hate have 2 bills for 3G service. Can I use my existing phone data plan with my iPad or do I have to set up a seperate data plan for my iPad?
Your best answer will come from Verizon' customer service.
