Getting a IPAD grant for my special needs child

I have a special needs child who has mutliple disabilities. I'm looking to get a grant to purchase an IPAD. She has starting using one at school and it has helped with her reading and math skills. I have applied thru different organazitons and so far have been denied ten times. My county agency has awarded funds for this year. I was curious if Apple provides grants. I am also a paraeducator in a special education department. So maybe there are avenues I could puruse. My her needs we live pay check to pay check so I am looking for any help. Or maybe a apple user may be willing to sell me an IPAD 1 at a cheap price. Any help you guys can give will be most appreciated.

  • I purchased an IPAD2 for my special needs daughter.  She only currently understands lowercase letters only and gets confused with the uppercase letters.  Is there a way to change the keyboard to display lowercase letters?

    I purchased an IPAD2 for my special needs daughter.  She only currently understands lowercase letters only and gets confused with the uppercase letters.  Is there a way to change the keyboard to display lowercase letters?

    There is no way for the keyboard itself to display only lower case letters. It doesn't display lower case letters at all for that matter.
    When you are using the keyboard - The other issue that you will have is with the shift key. Even with auto caps turned off you can still type capital letters if you tap the shift key and if you double tap it by mistake - it will turn into all capital letters so also turn off Caps Lock in the keyboard settings.
    Other than that, there is no way to ensure that you can type in lower case.
    Maybe an external bluetooth keyboard would be a better solution but I don't use one, and I have never even seen one in person so someone else will have to verify that for you.

    I had trouble getting my ipad app for that use ios 5.1.1

    If you mean finding any apps whose current version works on iOS 5.1.1 then see this page : https://sites.google.com/site/appleclubfhs/support/advice-and-articles/finding-a pps-for-older-devices#5.1.1
    Or are you looking for a particular app ? Some developers allow you to download older compatible versions of their apps : Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X.

  • My problem is trying to restore my iphone 4s. The icloud password is from a defunct email account through an ISP that I no longer use. I have upgraded to an iphone5s . I want to give the iphone4s to a special needs child that can make good use of it.

    My problem is trying to restore my iphone 4s. The icloud password is from a defunct email account through an ISP that I no longer use. I have upgraded to an iphone5s . I want to give the iphone4s to a special needs child that can make good use of it.I am at the point of despair. I can prove where I got the 4s etc. which seems to be a requirement from postings on forums. IT IS BREAKING THIS KIDS HEART AND BREAKING MINE. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP !!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • IPad Grants for Autistic Children

    i have a friend who has an autistic child who is using the ipad in school and she is seeing a huge improvemnt since he has started using the ipad. She wants to to get an ipad so her child can also use benefit from the ipad's "uniqueness" at home, but price is concern.
    are there grants for special needs children out there that she can take advantage of to help cover the cost or at least help offset the cost of an ipad? also what are the risks of buying a refurbished ipad off the apple store?

    Apple does not have any such programs - you might want to contact a local foundation, or an Autism support group, to find someone who might provide such a grant.
    The refurbished ones are as good as the ones sold new - some claim better, because they've been more thoroughly gone over as part of the refurbishing process than the mass production in the factories.

  • When I try to buy or update an app on my ipad, a window comes up asking me for a password using SOMEONE ELSE'S apple ID which prevents me from buying the app. How can I get my ipad toprompt for a password using my own apple ID, like it does w/ itunes

    When I try to buy or update apps, myipad asks me for a password using SOMEONE ELSE'S apple ID, which prevents me from buying/updating apps. But when I am buying songs on itunes, the ipad asks me for my password using MY OWN apple ID and everything works fine. HOW DO I GET MY IPAD TO REQUEST MY PASSWORD USING MY OWN apple ID WHEN I AM BUYING OR UPDATING APPS?

    The apps you are trying to update were purchased with (and therfore permanently linked to) someone elses Apple ID. If you do not know the password then you need to delete the app and redownload/purchase it with your Apple ID.

  • Is it worth getting an iPad 2 for university?

    Okay, so I'm thinking about getting an iPad 2 with my xmas and birthday money.
    I do already have a Compaq laptop, however, it is very heavy, very slow and crashed on me (went to blue screen) the other day, which makes me wonder if it'll last much longer.
    My question is this: is it worth getting an iPad 2?
    I am currently at university so feel that it'd be beneficial to my studies due to how light it is and how quick it is to fire up. I will still use my laptop for the typing up of long essays/assignments etc, however, an iPad 2 might be easier to take round university/record lectures more easily etc, however £399 is a lot of money to spend and I want to make sure I'm making the right choice.
    I was just wondering if there were any people out there who have iPads/and who go to university who could offer any pros/cons to getting one that I may have overlooked, help me make up my mind?
    Thanks

    It's very much a 'your milage may vary' kind of thing. I went to school when high tech was having a handheld recorder so the thought of having a computer to type out notes is nothing but a theory to me.
    I love my iPad, but people are right, it is NOT a computer. And it won't replace a notebook or netbook in functionality. It is a wonderful piece of tech, but to gain good typing speed and ability I know I need an external keyboard.
    And then you look at the pricepoint, 500 + at least 100 more for a keyboard and case and such...and less than 400 for a netbook.....and it's up to each person to decide what works best for them.
    I can afford the accessories and toys and the time to make them work, some can't.
    I think if you're a person with the patience to make it work then it can work for you. If you're impatient with having to fiddle and tweak and find workarounds, then you may want to stick with a more common piece of tech and operating system.
    You will have to find work arounds to make things print and to transfer files and compatibility with what your school may have.

  • Should i get the ipad 2 for school?

    hi,
    i was thinking about getting a ipad for school. i really would like to be able to take it to class and take notes! i hqve one question and that is is it practical to use it for homework with pages and keynote and numbers, or amoung other apps? also what do you like about the ipad? should i get a smart cover? what dont you like? i would use it mostly for note taking. what good note taking apps are their? also would keynote ect. work with office? my school uses office so i need it to do that. is office avalible for the ipad? or is it better to use pages?
    austin

    Depends on the person. Yes, you can take notes on the iPad. but you will possibly benefit from an external keyboard to type fast. (depends on how you can type /adapt to the on screen keyboard)
    I don't use Pages, but I do Documents to Go and it works very well.
    You will possibly find challenges getting things to print since the iPad only goes to AirPrint enabled printers. You will find challenges if you need to get data on or off the iPad since it doens't support flash drives (e-mail is the easiest way, and to do that you need wifi access)
    You can't get microsoft office. but the afrorementioned docs to go works, as do other office apps.
    You can make it work. Personally? For functionality and the such, I'd look into a netbook. Less money, hundreds of gigs and likely less compatibility issues with other devices.

  • Can't get onto iPad asking for passcode never set one up

    I download ISO 7 yesterday and now can't get onto my iPad as it's asking for a passcode ...I haven't ever had a pass code or been asked.. Help?

    Does your screen look like this (below?).  My sister called me with the exact same problem after updating to iOS7 on her iPad Mini.  She was convinced she didn't have a passcode!  She hadn't realised that she'd set one up as part of the iOS7 upgrade, which you will have done by default unless you hit the 'skip' button on that stage of the setup.  Are you sure you didn't type something in whilst upgrading to iOS7 without realising this was going to be a passcode?  When I asked my sister to think back to what she'd done she remembered what she typing and unlocked the iPad using the same word!  I hope this helps

  • Is there any way to get an ipad game for free when it was already paid for for ipod?

    I was just wondering if a person can upgrade their ipod games for free to play on the ipad.

    No.
    If the app is universal ( work on ipad,iphone and ipod) then you can sync it to both devices.  This is noted by the "+"
    Otherwise you would have to buy both versions.

  • Special-needs-and-abilities users. Advice on iPad usage and applications.

    We would like to purchase an iPad 1 or 2 for a special needs/abilities person (adult). Any word of advice on how to start the teaching process, what apps, how to use the AppleTV, what cases, chargers, Wi-Fi or 3G?

    I have just installed the iOS 5.
    To start:
    1.) is there a wireless charger for iPad2? If not what is the docking charger that would be easy to use for for a person with special abilities?
    2.) I like the AppleTV box to mirror the iPad screen on large TV.
    3.) I'm still looking at many educational apps for 3-5 y.o. children - some of them should be good for a person who never had a computer before.
    4.) stiil trying to find if Skype would be the best communication app - emails seem to be too much. (plus Skype will allow the sign language usage)
    5.) I am getting the protective board from GriffinTechnology.

  • Macbook air or iPad air for mobile use with iMac at home

    Ok i have a 2012 21 imac and i love this machine. I also have a 2013 13 macbook air for mobil use at work and in class. I am considering though selling the Macbook air and strictly getting an iPad air for my mobile computing needs. I already always use iCloud for all my doc and i don't do anything beyond taking notes for class, web browsing, email, iMessage and occasionally remote desktop support support for things at work on my macbook air. I believe an iPad air could fill all those needs and with something like the clam case pro for the iPad air when it comes out would be perfect for my desire to always type on a real keyboard instead of a virtual one. but I'm still a little unsure. Ive had a laptop and a desktop since 2005 so I'm a little apprehensive to ditch the laptop in favor of a tablet.
    What are everyones thoughts and advice?

    Personally, the iPad is NOT a very good laptop replacement and you are getting a much more limited mobile OS.
    If you already have a MacBook Air, it is a more capable mobile device and has the instant on capability as an iPad.
    With your MacBook Air, you get the full OS X operating experience, also.
    Plus, iPads do not have a bulit-in keyboard and trackpad and doesn't have all of the ports and connections your MacBook Air has.
    Plus, your MacBook Air has a bigger screen, more RAM and more hard drive storage than an iPad.
    An iPad is a downgrade from your MacBook Air.
    Why would you even consider a downgrade to an iPad from a much more capable MacBook Air.
    Stick with your MacBook Air. It is head and shoulders much better mobile Apple device than iPad.

  • I have an iPad 32 gb - do I need a special charger for it?  The charger for the newer iPads seems to fit but it does not charge it.

    I have an iPad 3 GB - do I need a special charger for this older model?  The charger for a newer iPad seems to fit, but I do not get any kind of display that it is charging.

    Did you try another cable?
    If you are using a USB to iPad dock connector (older iPads do not use the newer Lightning connector) then
    The Dock connector or the USB cable may be bad.
