Does your iPad 3 have a yellow hue?

Just got my iPad 3 set up. I had original iPad, iPad 2 to compare. Screen on iPad 3 has a noticeable yellow hue. Does yours?

I ordered an AT&T and a Verizon iPad 3 because I couldn't decide which one I wanted. By the time I got them, I decided I wanted to go with Verizon.
However, the displays on the two iPads were significantly different. The Verizon iPad was yellowish, and the AT&T IPad is bright white and gorgeous. Side by side, there's definitely a difference.
I exchanged the Verizon one for another one -- it was also yellowish.So I'm going to keep the AT&T one and return the Verizon one.
I asked a friend who works at Apple, and he said they are probably made in different factories. Also, I heard that there are multiple manufacturers of those retina displays, so that might be another reason. The guy at the apple store said, (and I quote), "Well, they're not all going to be identical." I don't know if I expected identical, but for $903.76 I expect it to be a lot closer. If I wanted something marginal, I'd buy a $200 tablet, right? (Note: Even my Kindle Fire is brighter than the Verizon iPad).
I'm not sure I would have noticed if I hadn't seen the bright white one, so I'm glad I did. It's disappointing that I have to keep the AT&T one instead of the Verizon one, but I read more than I'm going to use a data plan, so it's more important to get the right display.

  • HT4623 Why does my IPad not have a Software Updates button in my General tab?

    Why does my IPad not have a Software Updates button in my General tab?

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    To update, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Your iPad should be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change - though google do have app versions in the store

  • What security does my iPad 2 have? Bit concerned as some of my accounts have been hacked in to. If it has none can anyone suggest any thing

    What security does my IPad 2 have if any. Some of my accounts have been hacked. Can anyone suggest anything. Thanks

    Not silly questions at all!
    "Safe" is a tricky term. Nobody can ever tell you that accessing websites is 100% safe. Even if you are going through an encrypted site, if you're in a public place, someone could be watching over your shoulder to see you type your login and password.
    As you say, the iPad itself is relatively (compared to PCs) secure in the sense that there is no chance of viruses or malware stealing your logins.
    But you can take sensible steps to be careful.
    If you think you have reason to be concerned about the security of any of the sites you've mentioned, I would recommend you change your passwords. Start with email - if someone else has access to your email, they will often be able to detect and reset any changes you make to other accounts. Then change the other accounts.
    Do not use the same password for all your accounts.
    Gmail has the ability to use SSL - check in your iPad's Mail settings whether "Use SSL" is ON.
    The Barclays app should certainly transmit information in an encrypted manner, so again, provided you have a good password and are cautious about logging in in public view, you're covering your bases.
    Finally, let me give you one perspective on computer security that has a lot of truth to it:

    Thank you for your response about pushing the headphones in all the way. I thought maybe I had a faulty jack. I actually had to push it in pretty hard. I wouldn't have pushed that hard had you not suggested it. Thanks

  • Does the ipad mini have built in wifi

    I'm hoping to buy an ipad mini soon. But i want to use it for home and on the go. And i was wondering does the ipad mini have built in wifi? And if it does how do i turn it on. Is it like the iPhone and it gives you an option to turn on personal hotspot or what? Thanks

    All iPad's have wifi capability. You do the wifi setup by using the Settings app.
    You can pay extra for an iPad that has 3/4G cellular. Your iPad uses wifi when available. If not available it switches to cellular. You have to pay extra for the iPad's data plan with your chosen carrier.
    If you have an iPhone, you can use it as a hotspot instead of using cellular.

  • Does the iPad mini have a setting so it can be used with either 120 or 240 electrical current? If yes, how do you go about setting the desired input voltage? I will travel to Northern Europe and want to know if I will need a voltage converter.

    The iPad charger is dual voltage. You need only a plug adapter to be able to plug your US charger into a European wall outlet. A basic one costs about $2.00. - $6.00. Like this...

  • Does the iPad 2 have a hard drive?

    Does the iPad 2 have a hard drive?

    It will either have 16, 32 or 64 Gigabytes of memory. You cant access it like a harddrive but there are apps on the App Store that will make it act like a flash drive to hold files.

  • Colors are overblown and have a Yellow hue on an Asus Notebook

    When using a photo editing program such as Photoshop or the editing function in ACDSee the colors in the photo are very oversaturated and have a yellow hue to them. It's only happening when using an editing program, when viewing them in the  ACDSee viewer or Irfanview the colors are fine. Has anyone else seen this issue. It doesn't happen when using my desktop system, only on an Asus G75VX Notebook. I've updated the video drivers and chipset drivers but it didn't help.

    Hi Chris, thanks for replying. It is set as the default Asus monitor, I have tried several profiles within Windows and Photshop but it doesn't fix the issue. Is ther any way to just turn off the color management within Photoshop? The color on the disply is very close to what the printer is printing so I don't really need color management.

  • Does your Ipad speakers make a static noise?

    Hi world,
    I am curious to hear from others about whether or not they are getting a static hiss from their iPad when any system notification sounds or music is paused.
    You may need to place your ear up to the speaker but mine is audible in a quiet room from around 2 feet and is rather annoying.
    I visited a genius bar and they confirmed the static but the replacement iPad also had this noise so they were unwilling to proceed any further.
    Am curious as to whether its just mine or other people have issues.
    If you have had problems - Could you advise how they were dealt with?
    Many thanks for your time,
    Fractal

    Wow, these must be some E.T. iPads out thereplaying "perfect sounds" without this hiss in them (they must have some automatic-cleaning feature on, LOL).
    The thing is that samples used for notification events are not perfectly clear and they have this "hissing" noise (not very loud though) in the background, basically "built-in" the sound samples. Mine does too, and every single one at Apple store (display units) does the same. Trust me I checked it myself because I was also curious to find out. Apple store is located just 500 feet from where I live, so going there costed me nothing.
    True, this hissing background noise should not be heard from a far, only when you put your iPad's speaker very close to your ear (almost closing your ear-hole), and only immediately after playing those specific notification sounds. Hissing could last from few seconds, up to almost a minute, depending how close cropped those sounds were. I guess someone did a sloppy job at Apple when editing these sounds.
    Don't worry, it's not your hardware that's defective, it's Apple's software. They could easily fix it if they clean up those system sounds and update everything with next OS update.

  • Why does my ipad 2 have so many stability problems since ios7?

    Since "upgrading" to ios7 my ipad has effectively not worked. There's no app that doesn't randomly crash, games, safari, maps, youtube all just shut down and return to the home screen. None of this happened before the update, which I put off because so many people told me it was rubbish, and it looks suspicially like the update is designed to make my hardware obsolete before it's time. This situation is infuriating me regularly. I can't play a single song or read an article without applications crashing. If this is the way apple works, I'm definitely buying a samsung tablet and phone to replace this. I'm astounded that Safari hasn't crashed while i write this.

    What I would suggest is that you do a full back up of your device. Then go into the settings and 'erase all content and settings'. Which puts your iPad back as if it was new out of the box (you'll still have iOS7 but it's like doing a fresh install)
    Then restore your ipad from the backup that you just made.
    It's possible that during the upgrade something got messed up, which is causing the crashing. Starting over may help because it'll write over any errors.
    Just make sure you do the backup because when you erase it, that's just what it does, erases everything. Anything not backed up will be lost.

  • Why does the iPad 3 have so much lag on ios7?

    My iPad 3 has so much lag on ios7 i cant believe apple would pass this i have restored twice and set up as new ipad and still does not fix the lag. It takes at least 10 seconds to change a wallpaper even rotating the ipad lags also safari is really bad wish i didn't update now. Ios7 is smooth as butter on my iPhone 5 how could apple get it so wrong on the iPad! There is alot of reports of ios7 being laggy on the iPad 4 and mini aswell. I cant seem to get rid of the lag no matter what i try does anyone have any suggestions? Apple?    

    Hello,
    It is luckily that an iOS 7 update will be coming out this week. As it's 7.0, there is a lot of bug so just wait to you update for a 2 week. Try restarting your iPad by holding the power button and the home button down at the same time till you see a apple, that will help.
    Please reply if you have any more questions.
    Kind Regards,

  • How does your iPad's volume compare to your Mac's?

    We've been wondering if our iPad's volume is too low (a speaker problem? a software glitch?).
    Without a decibel meter, I figured the easiest test would be to compare our MacBook Pro's sound levels to our iPad's highest volume setting.
    We loaded up the same podcast on both devices and then switched back and forth while playing it to determine this.
    In our case, it seems that the 75% level on the MBP matched the iPad's 100%. That was actually reassuring, especially given that the MBP's speakers are bigger and should have more bass and audio power.
    What do you all find with your Mac vs. your iPad?
    Note: We made no volume or equalizer adjustment to the podcast on either the Mac or the iPad.
    For those unfamiliar with this trick to raise the volume of a music track or podcast, or the iPad in general, here's what to do.
    On the Mac, you can select the podcast and do a File, Get Info, Options tab, Volume Adjustment or Equalizer Set change.
    On the iPad, you hit the home button, tap on Settings, iPod, EQ, and pick Loudness (or others).
    Such adjustments can work well in raising the volume of what you are playing. (The iPad change is a general one, not track specific.)

    The external speaker on my iPad is, definitely, louder than my iPod Touch, but if there is any significant background noises, it is barely audible at full volume. Impossible to hear if you're in an especially crowded room and there is conversation going on. Especially true with video and movies. The headphone input seems to be about the same as my iPod Touch, though.
    It would be nice to eek out some more volume from my iPad's external speaker, though, without having to use the battery draining EQ/Soundcheck settings. For more quieter passages in video and movies, the external speaker can be difficult to hear at times.
