Did you get the iPad 2?

Hey fellow Apple people,
I'm looking to interview people who have the iPad 2 about the things they like and dislike about it for a Yahoo! news article. If you're interested please let me know!
Thanks!

Ok There seems to be alot of confusion on hear about the Friday ( 07-08-11) Update that was sent out to fix the Reboot issue with the Phone. Some people like my self have reported that they can not get the Update as there phone is getting an inability to connect to the network error, or the update window simply disappears with out a response (This is what is happening to me).
Many have reported that they got the update it fixed the reboot bug, and that they are seeing improvement in the phones functionality in general. Some people have reported that they have heard that the update is causing more problems. What I have yet to see (And I might have simply missed them) is reports from users that this has actually happened to them. So I started this Thread to see if we can't get a straight answer from the people that are actually using the phone (Because it seems VZW and HTC don't' seem to know or want to tell us right now) 
So hear is what Im asking 
1) Did you get the Update Yes, I requested it at 7:50pm, 7/8/11
2) Did it Fix The Reboot Bug From The Last Update Yes
3) How is the performance of the phone now  Much better, I no longer have data drops so I no longer need to turn on and off Airplane mode to get data back
4) Has the latest update brought any new problems Zilch, none, nada, nope
Hopefully this clears up any confusion and we can all get a clear idea of weather this update is a worth bothering with.

  • How do you get the iPad 1 to play music

    I recently bought an iPad 1. I synced it up w/iTunes on my iMac.
    For some reason, I can't get any of the music that was synced to play on my iPad?  Do you need to download iTunes or an App to play music on the iPad?
    Thanks

    When you synced your iPad, did you then open the actual device (click on the device on the left hand side)?  Then when the device is open, you go up to music and check the songs/albums you want to sync to the iPad.  The music will then appear in your iPod app, which is native to the iPad.  You open the iPod and your synced music should be there and easily played.  If that is not the case, let us know.

  • HT3669 Where did you get the driver information for the HP 4MV.  I cannot connect to MacBook Pro on 10.6.8 and believe you have information that might help.  Please advise ASAP.

    Apple published a report - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3669#HP - that states system 10.6.8 supports the HP LaserJet 4MV.  If this is accurate information, I would like to know where the drivers are located.  I have spent more than three hours with your technical support and no one has a clue how to make this combination work.  Please help ASAP.  Thanks!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    We are all users here. There is no one from Apple responding on these user forums.
    You did not mention which interface you are trying to use, or what steps Apple support had you try already, so I'll start with basics.
    Your mid-2009 MacBook Pro would have shipped with OS X 10.5 'Leopard', and OS X 10.5 and prior versions supported the AppleTalk network connection and protocols, as well as others.
    OS X 10.6, 'Snow Leopard' dropped support for AppleTalk.
    So, Snow Leopard 10.6.8 likely does contain the correct DRIVER for your printer, BUT if your printer was originally connected via AppleTalk, AppleTalk will not work with Snow Leopard. Period.
    There is at least one recently-published workaround to connect your printer via Ethernet, provided that you have the OPTIONAL HP Ethernet MIO interface card installed in your HP LaserJet 4MV printer.
    If your printer DOES have the optional Ethernet interface, you can reconfigure your printer to use Ethernet instead of Appletalk. No, it's not 'plug and play' like AppleTalk was, but patiently following detailed step-by-step instructions it can be made to work.
    The HP forums contains brief instructions on how to configure MIO Ethernet, and once configured, how to select the 4MV driver within this thread:
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Mac-Printing-and-Scanning/Laserjet-4mv/td-p/1176843
    This Macrumors forum thread contains a post by TrumpSAJ with more detailed configuration instructions:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=8748935#post8748935
    Other World Computing has an older guide linked here:
    http://blog.macsales.com/1897-appletalk-not-available-in-snow-leopard
    And a thread on Gigaom discussing some other alternatives to Ethernet (for a variety of printers):
    http://gigaom.com/apple/how-to-resurrect-your-appletalk-printer-in-snow-leopard/
    In my opinion, if you don't already have an HP Ethernet MIO card installed in your circa 1995 printer, then it's time to buy a new printer. Spending more money to 'upgrade' something that old doesn't seem like a good investment.

  • How do you get the iPad to use 4g?, How do you get the iPad to use 4g?

    Got an iPad iPad with retina display, last years model which says its 4g ready. Got an EE sim in which is a 4g sim, but iPad won't go onto 4g, area has 4g coverage, what do I need to do with the iPad?

    The iPad uses wifi first if available. If not aailable, it switches to cellular. Turn Off wifi.

  • WHY DID YOU CASTRATE THE IPAD APP FOR THE 6500 E 710N?

    VERY VERY FRUSTRATED TODAY WHEN I WENT TO SCAN INTO MY IPAD TODAY.
    THERE HAS APPARENTLY BEEN AN APP UPDATE THAT REMOVED SCANNING CAPABILITY. THE ONLY REASON I BOUGHT THIS PIECE OF CRAP PRINTER. NOW IT HAS SOME UGLY GRAPHICS AND IS DIFFICULT AND USELESS FOR TASKS.
    {Content Removed}THE FACT THAT ALL TECH SUPPORT IS ON A {Content Removed} FORUM. WHICH I HAD TO REGISTER FOR AGAIN.
    NEED MY APP BACK. I WOULD RETURN THIS PRINTER IF I HAD NOT HAD IT FOR A FEW MONTHS.
    ALSO ALL THE DOCS I SCANNED SEEM TO HAVE DISAPPEARED.
    THIS IS FRAUD. PURE AND SIMPLE. YOU SOLD ME A PRINTER THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO WORK WITH MY IPAD AND NOW IT DOESNT. 
    AND YES I AM YELLING THROUGH THIS ENTIRE POST.

    Dochands,
    I have gone ahead and escalated this to the appropriate team. They should be getting in contact with you soon.
    In the mean time, I would suggest using the HP Printer Control app, as it offers scanning functionality for your printer.

  • Why did you change the ipad to that crappy lightning cord.it does not stay plugged in to ipad to use it on ac power the cords short and overheat damaging the charger units. please change back to the old style.in this case newer is definately not better

    anyone else think the lightning cord as a piece of garbage

    I agree. It's much better than the old one.
    If your have a problem with something overheating, that's not normal. You should take the charger, cable and iPad to the nearest Apple Store. Is the charger an Apple charger or a third party one? Many of the third party chargers are badly made.

  • When I changed computers, my IPAD did not get the apps that I had downloaded or purchased. It did get my calendar,music and related items.

    When I changed computers, my IPADII did not get the apps I had purchased when synching. It did get themusic, calendar and related items. I tired Restore, but that did not work. what do you suggest?

    I would try first in iTunes right clicking on your iPad and selecting "Transfer Purchases from iPad". This will add any new downloads from your iPad to your computer. Then click on the iPad and at the top choose Apps and make sure you have "Sync Apps" checked. I hope that helps.

  • There were some updates on my Apps.  I updated them on my iTunes but my iPad did not get the same downloads/updates thru iCloud.  Does the iCloud only works for "New" Apps or Books downloaded from the store but not the "Updates"?

    There were some updates on my Apps.  I updated them on my iTunes but my iPad did not get the same downloads/updates thru iCloud.  Does the iCloud only works for "New" Apps or Books downloaded from the store but not the "Updates"?

    Purchased music does not count against your iCloud storage and you cannot get rid of them in the purchased tab.
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.

  • Did you buy the Applecare  for iPad?

    Did you buy the applecare with your new iPad or planning to buy it? It says that for $99.99 CAN, it extends the warranty and technical support to 2 years. Plus it covers hardware damage but you have to pay extra $49.00 for service. I broke the glass from my iPhone before 1 day after I got it, Rogers told me that it will cost $400 for the repair, so I had to find a local person to repair it and it costs me $120.00 but I see some dusts trap inside it. Do you think for an extra $100, this is worthed?

    There are two kinds of apple care.
    Regular Apple care that has been for sale up to this last week and Apple Care +
    Regular Apple Care
    Can buy anytime in the first year's manufacturer's warranty
    Applies only to manufacturer's defects, does NOT cover accidental damage
    Any unauthorized repairs will void it
    Apple Care +
    Must be bought in the first 30 days after purchase
    (may/may not apply to the iPad 3 only)
    Covers up to 2 instances of accidental damage with a fee of $49 per incident
    I presume that any unauthorized repairs will void it
    What you got with yours was regular Apple Care, which infamously did not cover screen breakage. Most people  were quoted repair prices starting at $269 and up depending on model. And really it wasn't as much a repair as it was you being allowed to purchase a refurbished device to replace your broken one with.
    Apple Care Plus means that if you break your screen, you have up to 2 chances to only pay $49 for a replacement/Repair (no idea if they do the refurb swap or if they really fix it.....with the program in play only a week or so there's no real data available)
    I personally got the regular Apple Care. Apple Care + didn't exist a few months ago. I hadn't originally bought it, but after my new iPad's 30 pin port corked it on me (best buy replaced it) I realized that there are certainly batches out there with manufacturer's defects in them and the $99 was a relatively cheap insurance policy against me getting another device with errors in it. (my theory.....some factories aren't as good as others or get batches of bad pieces and parts, so you end up with some out there with errors in them)
    In your case, regular Apple Care wouldn't have helped you since it doesn't cover damage. however, Depending on how expensive the Care + is, if I had a new iPad I'd seriously consider it.

  • HT4101 Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud.

    Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud. I am able to see any photo I took on the iPad using the iPad camera (in iTunes, photo stream, or when I open windows explorer and browse the iPad director), however I cannot see any photos transfered from my camera to the iPad. The camera connection kit must have put my photos in a directory I cannot get to and cannot sync.
