Dictation Feature when iPad is connected to a keyboard?

I've got the Apple keyboard/docking station for my iPad3.  Is there a function to be able to dictate when its still connected to the keyboard?

This issue manifests as The volume control shows  sound effects on screen  or phantom docking no volume slide control.
For the beginners, the issue is often the side switch is set to mute on off and not screen rotation lock. The switch is off. (see settings)
Other issues around software and airport use can be resolved by hard reset, or reset options inside the settings. I use AIRPORT all the time.
You may have even tried the re-installing the firmware/ios
So when all has failed to work, the you may have dock connector PIN 21 problem.
I had an issue that started with the ipad whe it was on USB cable to PC.
No drop, no sudden cable movements. Just gone....
No volume slider.   IPAD behaves as if it was docked when not.
Slight movement when usb cable is in occasionally brings the volume control back but only for a few seconds then it disappears.
Mine is going back for repair/replacement.
cheers Phil

  • Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected?

    Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected? and iPhone as well?  Setting to "auto open" is selected, but iTunes will not open automatically. Problem seems to have begun with upgrade to Lion.

    Good luck getting an answer...I posted the same question a day ago.   I can only assume it's a glitch in iTunes 10.5.

  • Automatically sync when iPad is connected

    is it possible to automatically sync when iPad is connected? I don't get the choise of marking a checkbox like the one I get on my iPhones summary-tab.
    What I'm using:
    iPhone 5 iOS 7 GM
    iPad 3 iOS 7 GM
    iTunes 1.1b48
    iPhone
    iPad

    I'm puzzled. In itunes, when my iPhone is connected to my Mac and the iPhone selected in the left hand pane, after then clicking on the Summary tab at the top of my screen, in the Options section below there is a check box I can select to "Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected". However, when I follow the same procedure with my iPad there is no checkbox to "Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected". It's just not there. Instead I see "Open iTunes when this iPad is selected".
    If there is a setting in the Summary Tab to automatically sync an iDevice - I have never seen it. Yes there is a preference in iTunes to allow the devices to auto sync - but the setting in iTunes is for iTunes to open automatically when the device is connected. That setting is greyed out if you turn off auto sync in the iTunes preferences. There is also a setting to sync over WiFi and you have to enable that if you want to sync over WiFi - but not automatically sync over WiFi.
    There is no setting on the iPad itself for auto syncing. There is a statement at the top of the iTunes WiFi sync setting that states the device will auto sync when plugged in, etc. - but no button to turn on Auto Sync on the iPad.
    The iTunes Helper login item is if you cannot get iTunes to auto launch when your devices are connected. It should be enabled in that setting - iTunes Helper should be checked.

  • Dictation Feature On iPad 3

    Can I dictate on the iPad 3 using another language?  If I am able to, where do I change the setting to be able to do so OR is there an app that will let me accomplish this?  Thank you. ~Pelusita

    I copied this from the article at the very bottom of this post.
    Our experience is that this feature does not always work.
    Dictation requires a Wi-Fi connection. Make sure that your iPad is connected to the Internet because you are sending your data to Apple servers.
    Dictation is available in the following languages:
    English (Australia)
    English (United Kingdom)
    English (United States)
    French
    German
    Japanese (Japan)
    If dictation does not work, make sure that the keyboard is set for the language you are using (Settings > General > Keyboard).

    Hi again, Demo!  Gosh, I was hoping the list included Spanish.  Do you know if there is a plan in the making for Spanish?  It kinda surprises me, since Spanish is the most prolific language, at least here in the US.

  • How to prevent iTunes from launching when iPad is connected?

    I don't want iTunes 11.0.1 to launch every time I connect my iPad (3rd generation, running iOS 6.0.1) to my Mini. I want to decide if I want iTunes, and then, if I do, launch it manually. How may this be accomplished?
    Notes:
    1.  iTunes .. Preferences .. Devices ==> "Prevent ... from syncing automatically" is UNchecked.
    2.  (in iTunes while connected) iPad .. Summary .. Options ==> "Open iTunes when this iPad is connected" is UNchecked.
    3.  When iTunes auto-launches, it does NOT sync. It "mounts" the iPad and then sits idle.
    TIA for any ideas,
    Mark

    Found the answer via Bing:
    http://www.brighthub.com/computing/hardware/articles/72004.aspx
    With the iPad connected and (at least in my case) iTunes NOT running, start the program "Image Capture" (mine is version 6.1). In the lower left will be a label "Connecting this iPad opens:" and below that label is a drop-down box which, in my case, was set to iTunes (don't ask me how), and I have since changed to "No application".
    Gee, that was obvious.

  • HT201412 when ipad is connected to power over night and battery is still at 5%?

    Why did i charge my ipad over night and yet the battery strentgh remained only 5% when i opened it on my laptop?

    Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • I have a Windows 7 64bit PC and get a Code 52 error when iPad is connected

    Initially my iPad 2 sucessfully loaded a Driver when connected but was not visible in iTunes.  I then followed technical support instructions and loaded the Apple Driver (64bit) and now get the following error message and a failure of the device to successfully load:-
    "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)"
    Any suggestions?

    if itunes will not run, you probably have mangled windows badly
    one feature of windows 8 is the refresh that saves libraries,
    because you are using windows 7, you will need to backup all files to another storage device

  • Music shows up in Music app on iPad, but not in iTunes library when iPad is connected.

    I recently connected my iPad to iTunes, and all of my music stored on the iPad was showing up fine - I then deleted it all as I no longer wanted it on there. However, all my music still shows up on the iPad, and iTunes is even telling me that a certain amount of space is being taken up on the iPad by this music - but when I go to delete it in the 'On My iPad' tab, there is nothing listed. I have over 1,000 songs so there is no way I'm deleting them manually from the iPad. Please help with this very frustrating problem! I just want to be able to get rid of this music from the iPad.

    Sounds like there may be issues with your iPod's hard drive. Perhaps it would be worth it to run a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD to make sure it is still in a healthy condition.
