Curious about iPad origin - delivery

Good day!
I recently purchased an iPad from the apple.com website. Today I tracked the purchase and find that the city of origin is EPZ China. I can't imagine that each iPad purchased from the website is individually shipped from China? I figured bulks of iPads were shipped from China to shipment facilities in the US? Just curious.. Thoughts?

Mine came from China, as did my Early 2006 iMac before it. I watched them both with my package tracking widget.
China > Alaska > Central Eastern US > Dalas, TX.

Please don't put your personal information here. No one from Apple monitors these questions, so you get user-to-user assistance only.
Unfortunately, your iPad is locked to another account. Unless the original party provides you with the password, then you will not be able to unlock the iPad. Apple will not provide you with the password, that is their rules. Either you return the iPad or find the original owner who probably won't give you the password either, but you can ask.

Anyone curious about Cider???

Hello All,
Yes, I do love games, and I probably spend (waste) way too much time on them.
With that out of the way, is anyone curious about how Cider, and the new EA games that use Cider technology, seems to work?
All I can say is: WOW!
Actually, it's quite an interesting twist, and very clever. First, let me say that Cider does seem to deliver all that it promised, and these new games do work very well. I am currently working my way through Command & Conquer 3, and no problems so far. Admittedly, this is a real time strategy title, and as such it isn't an ultimate test of this technology (a first person shooter will be), but the game does feel as if there is plenty of "overhead." We'll get a real test when one of the FPS titles gets the Cider treatment.
But, I am excited about this technology. You see, Cider approaches the problem of "porting" a game to OS X in a completely new and innovative way. If I properly understand how it works, Cider completely side-steps the difficulty in coding a game for OS X and OpenGL, and it takes advantage of the gaming strengths of Direct-X, by simply wrapping the Windows version of the game in a WIN-32 API "box." Simple, and brilliant.
While I was skeptical about the utter simplicity of this solution when I first read of it, it has been born out since I installed the game and did a bit of digging. By viewing the "package contents," I was able to dig down through the nested levels of associated directories, and I eventually found the "CNC3" binary. Yep, it's a .exe file!!
Obviously, the ability to "wrap" any PC game in a Cider box and distribute it for OS X is exciting news for anyone like me who is nuts about games. However, many of you who couldn't care less about games are probably thinking, "So what?"
Well, if this can be done for games, think about the possibilities for other Windows-only software titles. If we can run Windows titles in their own "pre-packaged" and custom-tailored Windows environment, there is no need for either "virtualization" software or Bootcamp.

Hello Mandy,
Yes, Cider is a direct descendant of the Linux wrapper, according to the information on Transgaming's website.
As I mention in my original post, we won't really know how well these wrapped games compare with their counterparts running natively in Windows until a FPS title is released, and frame rate "stress" becomes apparent.
However, it looks really good so far, from what I can tell. Keep in mind that the game, itself, really is running natively, and the only thing that must be "translated" (according to the information I have been able to find) are the calls to the GPU. As I understand it, the DirectX calls are simply being translated into OS X-speak (perhaps directly to Quartz?? That's what it feels like; not OpenGL), and this shouldn't represent that much of an overhead.
What I can say so far is that the game does take a long time to launch, probably due to the need to "start" a Windows environment. Once the game loads, however, everything is quite smooth and "snappy." In fact, it feels better than any game I have played in a long time, including the titles from id.
I am running the game at my display's native resolution (1680 X 1050), and I have most of the values at their highest setting. In other words, I am demanding a lot. And, the game seems to be delivering. There are certainly no lags in response from the in-game GUI. Only once have I noticed things actually slow down, and that was associated with action from a flame tank. I'm going to keep an eye on this one (I have only encountered that single flame tank at this point in the game); this could have been a fluke, it could be a hole in the graphics translation (which would potentially get fixed), or it could be an inherent problem. This last I think is the least likely, since it just doesn't fit with the rest of the experience I'm having.
Again, I have to say that the "feel" of this game's elements is just much smoother than what I am used to. From the moment the EA splash animation begins, there is a sense of "rightness" about it all that has been absent from any other game I've seen (and I've played many ports of EA titles). Keep in mind that I'm running this game on a Core Duo MBP, not a Core 2 Duo.
It will be interesting to see how this all pans out, as more games are released and the "kinks" get worked out.

I can not view ANY videos on Vimeo, I have 'reset' the Ipad, original IOS 5, cleared the history and cookies, I have changed the DNS number to 8.8.8.8, I have worked on this for 2 days and still can't find a fix, HELP!!

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

I have an iPad (original). I cannot complete the update to iOS 5. It gets to the "backup" stage and then finds an error (-402653081). It asks if I want to continue, with a warning that "continuing will result in the loss of all contents on this iPad."

Thanks Bob, I don't know why but it all of a sudden worked a few days later. It's a mystery but at least problem solved.

Hello , I want to ask some question about ipads \ How powerful is the iPad? How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web? Can you identify any shortcomings of the device? please help me :(

Hello ,
I want to ask some question about ipads \
How powerful is the iPad?
How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web?
Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?
please help me

it's less powerful than your average computer. THink of it like a netbook but with a better processor.
It'll do fine for surfing (although if you browse a lot of flash based sites you will need to get a third party browser since safari doesn't accommodate it)
You may do OK on reading books, papers or magazines, especially if they have apps, but the ipad's screen is backlit, so it doesn't work well outdoors and you may need to fiddle with the brightness so that you don't get eye strain (it's just like doing too much reading from a computer screen)
I would say the biggest short comings are data transfer. Apple's preferred work flow is that everything is done via iTunes or the internet....well people dont' always have 100% reliable always on internet access so you can find yourself in a situation where you can't get things on/off the iPad.
By and large, it's a good device for day to day stuff, but is not a computer replacement.

Mirror video playback from iPad [original] to iPad Mini late 2012?

I want to make a video on an iPad mini and play it back on the mini with someone else watching it on an iPad original. Also want to stop and start the video in order to critique the other person's recorded performance. Can this be done with airplay? Not sure which rev of iOS is on the iPad.

Just noticed that the question is backwards. Want to mirror from iPad mini to iPad original.
Is there some other way to do this if AirPlay doesn't work?

I am curious about this sound

It may sound a bit weird but Im just curious about it and want to see if any body can hear what I can hear when knock on the left hand side of the home button with your finger tip, might hear some little noise. It sounds like a little ball is in the iphone. Also when u knock on the area around camera lens has that sound as well. Does any body can hear it as well? or is it just me realising this?

My friend is using same model iphone4s and she has exact same sound on both areas..
it sounds like ' T ' sound. Think i should ask more people who uses 4s. Oh and you have to place your iphone on the table and try.

TS1702 Thanks. I had 6 Apps that needed updating on my iPad original. I hit "Update All" and that ruined four Apps. They won't download the updates, nor will they launch and be useable either. I lost Splashtop 2, Bible!, and Mercury Browser! Suggestio

Am I the only fool who clicked on update all when my iPad told me updates were available? Two updates loaded just fine, but the other four never updated and now lie useless and grayed out. I had 6 Apps that needed updating on my iPad original. I hit "Update All" and that ruined four Apps. They won't download the updates, nor will they launch and be useable either. I lost Splashtop 2, Bible!, and Mercury Browser! Suggestions?! I don't want to ruin my access to Splashtop 2 for sure.

I fixed it by going through a few steps using iTunes while hooked to my computer.

About order and delivery quantities

I have a number of questions about order and delivery quantities:
1) How can I make a delivery even when there is no order?
2) Where is customization of the controllig mechanism if the quantity of the items can be higher at the in the order than at the delivery or not?
Thanks in advance...

1) How can I make a delivery even when there is no order?
Transaction Code: VL01NO
Delivery Type: LO
2) Where is customization of the controllig mechanism if the quantity of the items can be higher at the in the order than at the delivery or not?
Ideally the Quantity of Order can be higher at Order, compared to Delivery. This is a case of partial delivery. Always ensure that Delivery Quantity = Pick Quantity i.e if Delivery Quantity is 50, but you want to deliver 30, in that case reduce the delivery quantity also to 30. If the quantity is different, PGI will not be allowed.

Curious about object trace

When I trace an object - say an instance of myMenu named myMenu, I get the following:
trace (myMenu);
// returns [object, myMenu_1];
I'm very curious about the _1 at the end of myMenu... why is it there? What does it signify. I would think it would return just the instance name.

Okay, so I changed my instance name from myMenu to thisMenu.
But the part I don't understand is when I return a trace, I get myMenu_1, which is not the class name. The class name is just myMenu. So why the extra _1 and what does it signifiy?

I don't know much about iPads, but I was wondering if there is a way to make Siri hands free?

I don't know much about iPads, but I was wondering if there is a way to make Siri hands free? I am looking to use Siri with a student of mine and the student does not have use of their hands.
