  • Genius for Apps not working on iPad

    I want to turn on Genius for Apps on my iPad but it doesn't work!
    It keeps telling me "Your request cannot be progressed by iTunes, try again later!"
    I really want this to work, but Apple doesn't help me.

    Yes, you are no the only one, it seems to be a problem with the iTunes server… I'm in touch with Apple, we try solve the problem.
    I will report back here as soon as I find a solution…
    enjoy your magic machine

  • How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes?  I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini.  Thanks.

    How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes?  I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini.  Thanks.

    If you synced it many times, you have to have a backup. It's just a question of how old that backup is now. When did you last sync?
    First of all launch iTunes on your computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Do you see any backups for you iPad in that window? If so, how new is the newest backup? That will be the backup that you will want to use. But remember that if you use that backup and it is one month old, you can only restore from that date back in time. Anything that you did on the iPad in the past month will not be in that backup.
    Turn on the new iPad Minin and start activating OTA via WiFi. You will get to a certain point in the process where you will be given the choice to Set up as new, Restore from iCloud - or Restore from iTunes. You will want to select Restore from iTunes.
    That is the short and sweet version. There are step by step instructions in this article. This applies to the mini as well as the iPad 4 or the iPad 3 for that matter.

  • TS1702 an unknown error has occurred when trying to update PicStitch and turn on Genius for Apps on iPad

    When trying to update iPad I keep getting a message "an unknown error has occurred. Also get this message when I tried to turn on Genius for Apps. And App Store is asking me for my password 3 - 4 times in a row and I am typing it correctly! This is also happening on my iPhone 3GS!

    Were you able to find a solution to this issue? I am also getting the 'an error has occurred' message when trying to download or update any apps on my iPhone. Restarted, updated, re-booted, etc etc, nothing has worked.

    E-mail frozen on IPad Mini
    Close the mail app and reset the iPad.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Downloading an app on to my iPad mini takes 15 minutes or more. Is there a way to speed up the process?

    Downloading an app on to my iPad mini takes 15 minutes or more just for one app is there a way to speed up the process?

    Maybe your internet is very slow.
    Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.

  • Why is "genius for apps" using location services?

    I noticed that in iOS 6, that there is now a "genius for apps" entry under the location -> system services.   Every time I go in there it shows as having been recently used (purple), despite me not having used the App Store genius recently.   It does this on both my iPad and iPhone.
    What exactly is triggering this? Why does app genius need location services?  Could this explain the poor battery life I'm seeing under iOS 6?

    Basilisk wrote:
    When I open iMovie it creates an alert that says iMovie cannot access the photos or videos on the iPad without Location Services being switched on. [...]
    Anyway, it gives some instructions on how to change the settings to enable Location Services for iMovie, but none of the things it says to do appear in Settings. I can't enable Location Services for iMovie in Settings - Location Services, or in Settings - iMovie. I can enable the camera for Location Services, but that makes no difference to iMovie which continues to refuse to edit anything on the iPad.
    The short answer is try connecting the iPad to a computer and doing the initial iPad set-up/registration via iTunes. (Maybe you can do the same thing via iTunes on the iPad.)
    I had the same problem Basilisk describes, on a brand new iPad. I purchased iMovie through the App Store (directly on the iPad), but couldn't do anything with it due to the catch-22 described above. iMovie did not appear under Settings > Location Services so I could not turn on location service for iMovie.
    Subsequently, I connected the iPad to my iMac and went through the first-time set-up of the iPad by iTunes. I selected some music albums and photo albums to sync to the iPad.
    Back on the iPad, iMovie still did not appear in Settings > Location Services, BUT, now when I launched iMove a different dialog box appeared. Paraphrasing, it said, "iMovie wants to use your current location. This will allow iMovie to use location information in your photos and videos. Don't Allow/ Allow."
    I tapped "Allow" (grudgingly) and iMovie was now usable, and it now appeared in under Locations Services.
    The catch-22 situation is a bug. If the iPad setup via iTunes is indeed necessary to get around the impasse, nothing tells the user that.

    Hello Krazyboutgolf,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS 7: Understanding Location Services
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5594
    Improving GPS accuracy2,4
    GPS accuracy varies depending on the number of visible GPS satellites. Locating all visible satellites can take several minutes, with accuracy gradually increasing over time. Use these tips to improve GPS accuracy:
    Ensure the date, time, and time zone are correctly set on the device in Settings > General > Date & Time. If possible, use Set Automatically.
    Important: Incorrect settings on your computer can sync to your device. Verify the date, time, and time zone on any computer that syncs with your device.
    Restart your device.
    Verify that you have a cellular or Wi-Fi network connection. This allows the Assisted GPS (A-GPS) on the device to locate visible GPS satellites faster, in addition to providing initial location information using the Wi-Fi or cellular networks.
    Note: Microcells (sometimes called Femtocells) aren't supported with Location Services.
    Maintain a clear view of the horizon in several directions. Keep in mind that walls, vehicle roofs, tall buildings, mountains, and other obstructions can block line of sight to GPS satellites. When this occurs, your device will automatically use Wi-Fi or cellular networks to determine your position until the GPS satellites are visible again.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    I Can not open App Store on my iPad mini ISO 8.1

    Have you tried:

    Otherwise what exactly happens when you try to open the app?
    Try:
    - 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.

    For object.type, it returns org.iso.Aztec.
    for other barcode types it is scanning properly without any issue.
    Please let me know if any one observed the same ? or have any solution.

    Delete the app and redownload.
    Try this  - 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.) No data/files will be erased.

  • HT2978 how do you turn off genius for apps ios 6 pleasssss help my appstore keeps on crashing

    how do you turn off genius for apps ios 6 pleasssss help my appstore keeps on crashing

    What you are saying is true but it will not always work. The aap store is dead. Wen I go to the fret urged page I see a white screen. I should be able to scroll down to the bottom and select View Apple ID but can't. This is on my wife's iPad and she thought after she upgraded to iOS 6.0 when it prompted her to turn on Genius that's what caused the trouble and she wanted to turn off Genius. NO CAN DO in App Store.
    To turn off Genius I had to go to Settings > iTunes &amp; App Stores > Apple ID xxxxx then click view Apple ID then I can turn Genius off and on.
    But the did not fix the problem with the App Store which is still dead.

  • Genius for Apps not working...

    I have 16GB WiFi iPad and I can't access Genius for Apps section in the AppStore. I turned it on, synced with Mac, no changes. I turned it off, then again on and synced. Still nothing.
    Is the genius section anywhere different from where it is on iPod/iPhone, or there is something wrong with my iPad?

    Seems like it's not working for anyone. See this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11388594&#11388594

  • Getting a "waiting..." or "installing..." message after sideloading an Enterprise signed app onto iOS 7 iPad Mini (among others) using App Builder 3.1.0.

    Getting a "waiting..." or "installing..." message after sideloading an Enterprise signed app onto iOS 7 iPad Mini (among others) using App Builder 3.1.0. The app icon remains "dim" on iPad desktop with one of the two messages. The messages change depending upon sync with iTunes or power-up from a shutdown. Tried assigning v30 and v31 as viewer versions, neither appear to work. The certificate signing appear to work without incident. The appropriate profile appears correctly within the iPad does not show it is expired.

    This happens when the mobileprovision file does not include the device ID of the device you are attempting to install onto. You need to recreate the .mobileprovision file and make absolutely sure the device ID for the devices are included.

  • How do I turn off the Genius app in App Store. I've gone to Settings/Privacy/Location Services/System Services then swiped Genius for apps 'off''. Also, I've gone to Settings/ITunes and App Stores/Click on AppleID/View Apple ID and then turn off Genius.

    How do I turn off the Genius app in App Store. I've gone to Settings/Privacy/Location Services/System Services then swiped Genius for apps 'off''. Also, I've gone to Settings/ITunes and App Stores/Click on AppleID/View Apple ID and then turn off Genius. Still nothing has worked. I'm still stuck with Genius offering the same apps to me. Mind you, once I click on the App Store there is nothing I can do but swipe left and right. There's absolutely nothing at the bottom of the screen like a features tab, nothing. There is, however, a categories button at the top, but that's it. Irrelevant.

    FWIW, I just got off the phone with Apple technical support about this.  I use Genuis for creating playlists, so I don't want to disable it, but Apple support confirmed that there is no way to avoid syncing Genius data without disabling Genius altogether.  I'd read somewhere else that subscribing to iTunes Match might allow you to avoid this, but that is NOT the case, as I've confirmed, and Apple support has confirmed.  For me, it routinely syncs thousands genius of items, so I have to allow a lot of time for my manual syncs.

  • How can I delete a bad app completely from my iPad mini in order to re-download it as though I never had it?

    How can I delete a bad app completely from my iPad mini in order to re-download it as though I never had it?

    Yes, it will now always show that you purchased it, but with it deleted from ipad, when yu click the icon to download again, it will download the latest versioon available from the app store.
    You cannot delete what is in the app store. nor can you erase your previous history of purchasing the app.
