Do I need antivirus and other Internet protection for my new iPad?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You don't need any antivirus. You just have to be careful with the websites you visit

    I have 50-60 Mac OSX devices on my corporate network.  I woudl like to install an "agent" on them that would allow me to report on how many have X copies of this or that software.
    I also need a corporate Antivirus solution.
    For PC, we have used things like MAAS360, Kaseya, Dell eSmart, etc....
    What is a comparable Apple product for small business?

  • Pandora and other internet radio

    I was just wondering how i can get pandora and other internet radio sites like last.fm to work on my mb air. thanks

    You need to either download and install the flash plug-in from http://adobe.com, or use the Google Chrome Browser for running Pandora/radio apps.
    As an alternative, if you purchase Pandora One, you get access to a non-flash (it uses Adobe Air) stand-alone app for playing your Pandora stations on your computer.

    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    However, since it works with other networks that really suggests a problem with your network.

  • HT2311 Is there a virus protection for the apple iPad and iPad Air and iPhone 5 that we need to use for security?

    Is there a virus protection for the apple iPads including the iPad Air and the iPhone 5, and if there is, how do we download it into our apple products? With everything that is going on it seems like I'm having more problems with freezing and crashing, getting kicked off my sites more often then ever! Is there a way to stop this?

    There is no known malware capable of infecting an iOS device, unless it has been jailbroken. Due to the security that prevents malware, real anti-virus software on iOS is not possible, so none exists.
    As to the problem, I'm unclear on exactly what you're seeing. What exactly does it mean to get "kicked off your sites?"

    in my iphone 4, wifi is connected but internet is not running. when i usd safari and other internet application it alwasys says wifi is not connected. why ? what happen to my iphone?

    Try Settings > General > Reset > Reset network connections.
    Other basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, and restore.

  • What can I change to gain access to my work vpn.  I can access with my MacBook Air and other routers.  Can use my ipad and this time capsule to successfully access the VPN.

    What can I change to gain access to my work vpn.  I can access with my MacBook Air and other routers.  Can use my ipad and this time capsule to successfully access the VPN.

    You need to give us a lot more info.
    I presume the MBA and the TC are the combo that doesn't work, although you don't clearly state that.
    If the ipad and TC work.. are you sure the ipad is connected via the TC and not 3G network?
    If it is then the TC itself is fine and the issue might be setup on the MBA.. although if the MBA works with other routers.. that rather confuses the matter.
    You need to actually tell us how the TC is setup in the network. What kind of broadband modem you have and what kind of vpn you are using.

    PS - I just sent this to a few of my friends in the big hardware review sites, as well as a few apple execs:
    Whats up guys? Its your old buddy dom "battleship mtron author , 9 ssd drives in raid 0" years ago. lol
    I wanted to fill you in on a HUGE problem with the new ios 6 update.
    My iphone 4 updated without a hitch.
    My ipad 3 on the other hand has a HUGE PROBLEM. It is essentially a brick without wifi (since the device relies on wifi for just about every task).
    There are currently hundreds of a users within the last 2 hours reporting the same error on the apple discussions site.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19626235#19626235
    What happens is simple:
    1. Download and install the update on Ipad 3.
    2. Try and connect to your normal wifi connection.
    3. It will connect for a few seconds and than fail stating "no internet connection available"
    4. It is no a brick without wifi accessibility. (unless we revert to ios 5)
    I have tried resetting my router. Resetting settings on the ipad. Renewing the ip address both LOCALLY and through the WAN at the cable modem and rebooting all of my networking equipment (ie: router), I even tried doing a complete wipe and re-install of ios 6 fresh. You guys know I am a tech geek from my background and I have tried everything so I just wanted to fill you in on this potential problem for apple.

    I purchased keynote for my new iPad do I need to purchase keynote for my iMac?
    When I try and purchase keynote for my iMac I am told that "you have already
    purchased keynote, do you want to purchase it again?"  Answer NO.  I try to open the
    keynote app on my iMac and it asks "do want to buy iWork again?"  answer NO.  Then the keynote app
    closes. What an I to do?

    Call the apple store you got it from and ask them. Sometimes in the past they've extended the 'no questions asked return' but only Apple can tell you for sure.

  • Error in Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

    Hello Everyone,
    I am a regular user of I-tunes but recently i dont know why but I got some error in Launching I-tunes. So as recomonded by "Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7" section. I started removing the products. But after removing Quick time, I tried to remove Apple Software Update but while uninstalling it gave error that "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." and the uninstall rollbacks.
    Please send me a feasible solution to this problem.
    Thank You.

    Uninstalling the iCloud control panel should allow you to do that folder deletion.

  • I live in a home with two other people, and one housemate tried to sync up his content from iTunes and iCloud onto another housemate's new iPad. the iTunes library only contains my content. is there any way to retrieve the there person's iCloud?

    i live in a home with two other people, and one housemate tried to sync up his content from iTunes and iCloud onto another housemate's new iPad. the iTunes library only contains my content. is there any way to retrieve the other person's iCloud? Can they go out of my account? Their content is saved on their iPads, but can another iCloud be on the same home computer?

    The syncing of music is one way, computer to phone. See this helpful document from a fellow user. Credit goes to the author.

  • If I buy a new ipad, can I restore my old apps and other thing on from my old ipad, to my new one ?

    Hi,
    I plan to sell my ipad 2 and I was wondering do my apps and films ect... Get stored on my iTunes ? So when I buy a new ipad I can use the same i tunes and upload them back on the new ipad.
    Thanks.

    If they are not already in your computer's iTunes library then you can copy your iTunes purchases from your iPad via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
    As long as they remain available in the store then apps can also be re-downloaded via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes - depending upon what country that you are in, and whether they remain in the store, you may also be able to re-download music, films and tv shows via that link.
    You can also backup your current iPad and in the future restore that backup onto a new iPad : backups and restores. Note that the backup doesn't contain your apps or media (films, music etc), it just contains the content of your apps e.g. game progress, documents etc, so you should still do the Transfer Purchases
