DUAL APPLE IDS ON IPAD2: want to reduce to 1 when restoring to iPad mini. How to do it?

In 2010 my wife purchased iPad2 which was set up via my Apple ID on my iMac. When iCloud showed up we inadvertently synched it with my iMac. We now want to go our separate ways, electronically, because she got an iPad mini. So we want to dump the iPad2 data onto the new Mini without involving my original apple ID at all. She has her own Apple ID and her iPad2 on iCloud and that's what we want to transfer to the Mini. How can we get the data from the iPad2 to the mini without getting my Apple ID/iCloud involved. I have a new Mac Pro, but if we synch with that it'll just be deja vu all over again; if we use iCloud my ID will be used.
Thanks for any help.

On the iPhone, go to all of the apps that use his Apple ID, log out, and log in with yours:
Settings/iCloud
Settings/iTunes&App Stores
Settings/iMessage
Settings/FaceTime
Settings/Game Center
The only issue you will have is apps purchased or downloaded using his Apple ID will require his password any time they are updated, as content is tied to the Apple ID it was installed with.

Can you dual sync your bluetooth apple keyboard to both your ipad2 and your mac?

I want to link a keyboard to my ipad2...can i sync my bletooth apple keyboard and bluetooth mouse to my ipad2 and keep it synced with my mac mini?

I haven't done it intentionally, but while it seems to be technically possible to have the bluetooth keyboard "connect" to one and then the other, it gets messy if both devices are on at the same time and near each other. I don't recommend it.
A mouse doesn't have any utility with a finger and gesture based iOS device so that will be Mac Mini only.

I bought a new MacBook Pro several months ago. I keep losing my wireless connection (my wife, sitting several feet from me has no problem with her iPad2). I find the quickest fix ix to turn Airport off and back on. Very annoying. Suggestions please?

What kind of wireless router are you using? more importantly which protocol are you connecting with? Are you and wife connecting using the 2.4Ghz band? or do you have a dual band router that offers the 5GHZ band? Are you both connecting vie 802.11 a/b/g or n?
The best thing to do is to go into SYSTEM PREFERENCES and select NETWORK, then select AIRPORT and click on the ADVANCED button.
Under the AirPort tab you should delete all the preferred networks and only add back in your network with the proper security settings and passwords.
If you hold down the option key on your keyboard while clicking on the airport icon at the top on your macbook pro. you'll seesome data that will tell you what band and mode you're connecting at, as well as in an indication of signal strength (RSSI) if you write down and post back that information it'll tell us what's going on.

How can I connect my guitar to ipad2 to create tracks in GarageBand at the best quality leveks

How can I connect my electric guitar to ipad2 and GarageBand to ensure best quality recordings

The analog input of the iOS devices is horrible. I have no idea why but there is horrendous crosstalk between the input and the output. I'm a guitar player and I've been fighting with this since I first purchased my iPad. I also do podcasting.
The cleanest input is obtained by using either the camera kit USB and a compatible device or a unit that specifically utilizes the 50 pin connector.
It also seems like with each iOS update Apple messes with the current available at the 50pin connector so compatible units may become not so compatible. I have used the ART dual pre successfully until this last OS update and now the power supply seems to be an issue.
There is a Griffin USB audio device that works well. I don't have the name handy.

Wi-Fi capability of IPAD2

All,
Does anyone know the detailed capabilities of IPAD2's wireless. The main thing I need to know is 802.11n dual band (ie 2.4 and 5Ghz).
Thanks
Jim

iPad1 uses both the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands so I would expect the iPad2 to be the same. The 4G iPod Touch only uses the 2.4GHz band thought.

IPad2 loses wifi when xbox360 is on

My ipad2 loses it's wifi connection whenever my son uses his xbox360. They are both connected to a Belkin N750 dual N router. The Xbox is connected to the 2.5 MHz channel, while the iPad2 is connected to the 5 MHz channel. Does anyone know of a fix for this problem?
Thanks!

I would update the firmware of the belkin router to see if they fixed the bug with their router
otherwise I would think about getting a better router, there are tons of issue posts here about belkin routers

How do I verify which chip my iPad2 has?

There is nothing under About showing the chip, but under Wi-Fi it says A4(?) I thought all iPad2's come with an A5?

All iPad 2's have the Dual Core A5. The 3rd Generation have the Dual Core A5X.

Good reading.

Why not Siri in iPad2?

Is Apple pushing too strong? Is there a real reason we can't have Siri in our still new iPad2s?

It's probably due to the RAM and processor limitations.
iPad: RAM - 256MB, Processor - 1 GHz Apple A4
iPad 2: RAM - 512MB, Processor - 1GHz dual-core Apple A5
iPad 3: RAM 1024MB, Processor - 1GHz dual-core Apple A5X

How large of a hard drive can I install on dual G5, and do I need more RAM?

I recently had a situation in which my dual-processor 2.0 G5 was completely refurbished by Apple repair-new logic board, both processors, video card, thermistor, all new. Finally it has been working well after a month of trips back and forth from the Apple store. I have two internal hard drives installed on my G5, both 300GB, one for OS applications, and one for audio. I am running out of space on my main hard drive, and so I recently purchased a Maxtor 1TB hard drive, now manufactured by Seagate, from Fry's. After having my G5 refurbished, I was having an issue with my Samsung 930B monitor going into sleep mode when I boot-up from a CD, but other than that G5 was working fine. I removed the main 300GB hard drive from slot #1 and put it into slot #2, from which I had removed my audio hard drive. I installed the Maxtor drive in slot #1 and reformatted it for Mac using my laptop with ATA/USB cables previously purchased for data transfer. This took about 14 hours as I used the "zeros" option. After that I hooked up the internal cables to both drives and tried to boot up from Leopard in order to install it on the Maxtor drive, but again my monitor went into to sleep mode. We went to the Apple store to try to see if there was an issue with the computer, but everything worked fine with their monitors and CD's, as well as my CD. So there is some kind of issue with my monitor, probably software as it works fine when booting up from the main hard drive, and also was fine when I did its self-test function. While at the Apple store, they installed Leopard from their hard drive which took about 30 minutes.
My problem is this: When I arrived home, I turned on my G5, which had been set to boot from my new Maxtor drive and complete the Leopard setup process, which we had decided to do at home as it would have taken another 20 minutes in the Apple store. The G5 turned on, chimed, I got the Apple screen with the wheel, but then after that my monitor goes into sleep mode. I can hear Leopard's setup intro playing through the speakers, but the screen is in sleep mode. So I reboot holding down the option key so I can boot up from my old (300GB) main hard drive, now in slot #2. This works and the monitor screen does not go to sleep. However, as I am browsing on the web to check for issues concerning this monitor, the G5 freezes, and I get a screen with black bars with writing in them and various technical language across the screen. This happened several times after rebooting. Finally I shut the computer down. I am going to try removing the new hard drive and putting both old ones back in and see if the G5 stops crashing. I think the monitor issue is a separate issue, and I am more concerned with the crashing, as previous to the new hard drive installation the G5 was working fine, monitor fine, other than the issue when booting up from a CD. Do I need more memory? Is the 1TB hard drive too large for my dual-processor 2.0 G5 and overloading it? Would I be better off with a 500GB drive? Would appreciate advice from persons with experience in this area. Thank you.

I have replaced my 5 year old G5 with a Mac Pro, as the G5 just had too many issues, even after replacing all major components (logic board, both processors, video card, etc.) Once I took out the 1 TB hard drive from my old G5, it stopped having the kernel panic issue. Nonetheless I had been through a lengthy repair process previous to this issue, so I didn't care to trust an older machine any longer, especially since being told by an Apple tech that the "new" parts were really just older parts stockpiled from a central location. Could be new, could be refurbished. Apple was kind enough to credit the money we had spent on the G5 repairs towards the purchase of my Mac Pro.

Running Dual boot windows 8 and win 7 pro with xp mode installed!! I love it!!

It took over 2 days to figure out how to adjust the bios to get my win 7 pro DVD to boot and install dual boot on this GREAT MACHINE!!
Step 1: using diskmgmt.msc you have to shring the C partition. I shrunk it so I had 80GB remaining as unallocated space.
Step 2: You have to enter the machine Bios adn set the BIOS to Both and UEFI as first
Step 3: Connect your usb dvd
Step 4: Put your win 7 pro dvd in the usb dvd drive
Step 5: Reboot your machine and when it starts press F12 to get the boot menu and select the usb dvd drive then press enter
The machine restarts
Message on screen says press a key to boot from cd/dvd
Press space and it boots up the win 7 pro DVD
After files copy and load the setup screen asks to accept the agreement and where to install win 7
BE SURE TO SELECT THE 80GB location
Then follow thru the win 7 prompts to load it.
When the machine restarts you will see a dual boot screen with Windows 7 on top as first selection and Windows 8 below it as 2nd selection.
Make sure to hit enter with windows 7 selected
The win 7 installation completes.
You will see many items with drivers not installed dont fret.
You can load most of the drivers by highlighting the device in control panel/device manager and pick update driver then select BROWSE for DRIVER and be sure to put in drive D:\ which is now the windows 8 drive and hit search.
Many of the windows 8 drivers installed with no issue.
The Realtek driver was an exception .. goto to the lenovo site and pick the x100e tablet and download the LAN driver from there about (4MB). Copy it to flash drive and install it in win 7 from the .exe file. The driver for LAN will install sucessfully. The version of the driver is 7.46 something the 7.11 versions do not workl.
I have only 3 drivers that I could not find - 2 list as unknown and are related to ACPI or power management and 1 lists as USB controller but all the USB stuff works without it.
Be sure to either shutdown the system or sign out of win 8 when your done so you get the dual boot menu. If you shutdown while logged into win 8 the next time you start up it will go right to win 8 until you signout and restart.
Just to let you know an easy way to shutdown is go to the desktop and press ALT + FN + F4 and a shutdown menu comes up on the desktop.
Once win 7 pro is installed you can download the XP mode free from Microsoft and install it.
This is of course AFTER you have ACTIVATED WINDOWS 7 ONLINE with YOUR ACTIVATION KEY(you supply).
ENJOY! This is the BEST machine I ever had!

It's been many, many years since I don't do dual boot anymore. Don't find the reason to do it, either. Different kinds of virtualization should be enough. Anyway...

HT4972 After syncing my iPad2 to iTunes, I can't get it to work again.

Ok, so I wanted to update my iPad2 in order to get the iOS5 (not even really sure what that it). So, I hooked it up to my computer, which is not the original one I had synced it to. It wanted to restart everything from the original iPad settings, so I stopped it. I then hooked my iPad up to my original computer. When I looked at iTunes it had all my Apps, etc on it and I hit the "sync" button. It looked like everything was syncing just fine. But, when it was all done and I go back to using my iPad, it is saying to either: 1) set up as new iPad (which I don't want to do), 2) restore from iCloud backup (don't know how to do this) or 3) restore from ITunes backup...this is what I clicked on. I then plugged my iPad back into my computer with iTunes and started again. However, I can't get any further than this. Nothing is happening! Help!!!!!

That message means that you have to restore the iPad now. Something went wrong. You need to restore the iOS software and then restore from the backup.
Read this carefully and follow the instructions. Make sure that you restore from your backup at the end of the process. That is covered at the bottom of the support article.

I reloaded iTunes 10 (64 bit) successfully, but the problem remains the same.
Any suggestions?

I looked in the folder from which I want to synch photos, but there is no such thing as an "ipod photo cache" in that folder, or sub-folders, as suggested in the link which you were nice enough to provide.
I have also tried removing photos from my iPad2 Photos App, and "iTunes has stopped working" shows up again as soon as I click on the "Synch photos from" button.

I have had my IPAD2 for quite a while but haven't activated my cellular data for about a year. I am now trying to activate and when I go to cellular data, turn it on and try to tap view account i just get a message that says "connection to server lost".

I have had my IPAD2 for quite a while but haven't activated my cellular data for about a year. I am now trying to activate and when I go to cellular data, turn it on and try to tap view account i just get a message that says "connection to server lost". I could swear the last time I used cellular data you would see the signal in the upper left corner and I only see "no service" there, I am in a location where I know I should have service. Is there something I should do to my IPAD? I tried resetting, I tried clearing cookies and history in Safari (after reading a post n these discussions). I don't know what to do next. My IOS version is 6.1.3. I did go into Network from the general tab and I see it says "SIM not provisioned". HELP and Thank you in advance.

Hello Theresa818,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like the cellular data will not activate for some reason on the iPad.
I found this article that will help you resolve this issue here, named iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular Models): Troubleshooting a cellular data connection, found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4249
Check for a carrier settings update.
Update your iPad.
Toggle the Cellular Data setting off and on under Settings > Cellular Data.
Restart your iPad.
Tap Settings > General > About. Locate the Carrier entry and make sure that your carrier is correct.
If your SIM card has SIM PIN enabled, try turning it off: Tap Settings > Cellular Data > SIM PIN.
Make sure you're in an area of good coverage. If the cellular data connection works in another area, contact your carrier to report the original affected area.
Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Restore the iPad as new.
If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store, contact your carrier, or contact AppleCare to troubleshoot further.
I know you may have done one or two of the steps here, so you can skip those.
Take care,
Sterling
