Giving my IPad 2 to grandson

I just bought a new IPad with retina display and will give my current IPad2 to my grandson for Christmas. I've bought and downloaded dozens of kids' apps for him, so I want to keep those on the Ipad2. I've deleted all my photos and deleted apps that are for me, not him. Now two questions:
1. How do I delete my e-mails from the Ipad2 but transfer them to my new IPad?
2. Finally, how do I reset the username and password from me to his mother? (He's only 5 and unfortunately watched me enough to learn my ITunes password, so he has been known to buy apps for himself.) She doesn't have a Mac but has an IPhone, so probably has an ITunes account....
Thanks!

Are the emails not still on your email account e.g. if you log into your email account on your computer or via a browser on your iPad are they still shown on there ? If they are then you can just delete the email account from that iPad via Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, select the account on the left-hand side and tap on Delete Account.
If terms of the apps, they will remain tied to your account, they can't be transferred to a different iTunes account - so your account will need to be authorised on the computer's iTunes that it will be synced to if you want to keep those apps on it (so you may want to change your password).

I am giving my iPad to my daughter,

I am giving my iPad to my daughter, when I restore it to orig factory condition will her iPhone purchases be available, and IOS5 to her through iTunes? Will the factory reset keep the upgrade for IOS5 or revert to original? Can she register it via the Cloud or does she need to connect to iTunes.

If you reset the iPad to factory settings it will be like giving her a brand new iPad with a clean install of the iOS. She can use her own Apple ID and download any past purchase that she has made on the phone. Without knowing where you live - in the US - virtually everything can be downloaded again including many movies - not all but many movies.
If the iPad is now running iOS 5 - she can restore via iCloud - if that is what she has been using for a backup - or if she has been using iTunes - she should restore from that. If she is still using iTunes she will want to sync all of her content onto the device as well.
iPhone only apps will run on the iPad but will appear in the smaller screen size and though they can typically be doubled in size by tapping the 2X button that will appear in those apps on the iPad, the resolution will be crappy - but the apps will work.

I have two iPads and giving one to my grandson. Using my Apple id for both, can we use different passwords to access our "own" apps. Also I don't want the downloaded App to go to both iPads. Been looking for hours for an explanation! Thanks for any help.

When to buy? Giving an Ipad as a gift next week?

Giving a gift of a Ipad 3-G to a person at a conference next week. With the announcement of the Ipad two coming out today. How soon do you think Apple will begin shipping. I would rather see a Ipad two as the gift then the Ipad one. What is Apple's policy of allowing a person to upgrade from one to the other if it has not been used?
Thanks,

Until Apple officially makes an announcement, no one knows the answer of when a new device is going to be released. Last year, it was about 6 to 7 weeks between the announcement and product launch.
There is no upgrade policy. You either sell the first device or if you are in the return window, you return it for a refund and buy the new device.

Giving used iPad to Family Member

What do I need to do to clear my old (1st generation) iPad before giving it to a family member? What will he need to do to activate it for his own use? If I clear my old iPad, will that affect the content of my new (3rd generation) iPad?

All that is required is for you to go to Settings, then General, then Reset, and go to Erase All Content and Settings. If the iPad has iOS 5, the new owner will only need to follow the on-screen setup. If the iPad has an earlier version, the new owner will need to connect to iTunes to set it up.

Can I sync my iPad (purchased first) with my iPhone (purchased second). I have apps on my iPad that I would like to sync to my iPhone before giving the iPad to my little sister. Help!

I received the iPad a little over a year ago as a gift from my parents. I loved it so much that I purchased the iPhone4S and I was wondering if it were possible to transfer the Apps that I previously purchased on the iPad to my iPhone. If this isn't possible can I ask why not? I don't understand why purchasing something and paying good money for it doesn't make it truly yours to be used on your devices. I want to give the iPad to my little sister and have my parents set up a new account and "refresh" the iPad (if you can even do that) for her but I'm afraid of losing the Apps that I paid good money for just for them to dissappear. I just want to make the iPad something my sister can call her own. Right now it is connected to me and my account so I would like to change this as well if possible. I am eager to learn more and I look forward to any responses. Thank you for your time.

If you want to have the mostly same content on both devices - it probably makes more sense to restore your iPad from the iPhone backup. this will put all of your app settings and email settings onto the iPad and any app data and game saves as well will transfer to the iPad.
You still want to sync the iPad so that all of the apps and photos that are in your iTunes library transfer over to the iPad. Restoring from the backup doesn't restore apps, music, synced photos, movies, books, TV shows and podcasts - you will still need to sync that content to the iPad.
I have pretty much have the same content on my iPad and on my Touch, but I eliminated the Movies and TV shows from the Touch and some apps as well. Remember that iPhone specific apps may run OK on the iPad - they will run in the iPhone smaller screen size and while you can double the size by tapping on the 2X button in the apps, they will be lower resolution because you just doubling the size of the pixels and the apps look kind of crappy on the iPad - they may work - they just look bad.
I do not auto sync at all. Nor does iTunes open automatically when my iDevices are connected. I start iTunes on my own and I select all of the content - piece by piece - app by app and so on - as I go along. Once you get through the initial set up - iTunes remembers each device and it's content for the next time that you sync.

Is it possible to use the account details on 3 or more iTunes accounts? e.g. if giving 2 iPads as presents, each iPad having it's own appleID but with the same payment/card details?

I bought 2 x iPad 1 as a gift and already have one myself. I want to be able to provide them with the means to use iTunes.
Is this possible or does each account need its own payment/card details?
I don't want to assume that its currently possible as this could flag up as a fraudulent event.
Thanks

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

Giving my iPad to my Mom........

I want to give my iPad to my mother and get a bigger one. I know a restart will erase my stuff in the iPad, but what about iTunes when she first plugs it into her computer? She won't get my iTunes library or Apple account will she? How do I reregister it under her name and take out mine?

restart will not erase your stuff in the iPad. AS for the problem of taking out yours, you can erase all data on your iPad and set it up as a new device.If you don't have access to iTunes, you can use the following steps to completely erase iPad,
1.Tap Settings.
2.Tap General.
3.Tap Reset.
4.Tap Erase All Content and Settings.
If you want to keep the device in factory condition to your mother, disconnect the device when the restore is completed (when the device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen). Do not select Set Up As New or Restore from Backup. The new user ,you, can name the device and configure syncing options when you connect it to your computer.

Giving old ipad and apps

Now using a MacAir for many functions for which I used iPad(1).
Want to give the iPad and apps collection to a young tech-2-b.
Is there a way to separate and transfer the iPad apps while retaining my MacAir + Mac-mini, etc?
Thanks for your consideration.

The apps are tied to your apple ID, so you really can't transfer them unless you want the new owner to have access to your Apple ID. You can wipe your iPad and restore it to an 'out of box' state and then it's best to let hte new owner put his/her own apps on there under their own apple ID

My grandson was playing with my iPad 1. The screen is tinged with red, blurry, never seen this before, nor do I know how to fix it.

My 4 yr. old grandson played with my iPad yesterday. When I picked it up late last night, the screen had a red haze throughout. The clarity of every screen is tinged in red wavy lines, and bright red appears at the top of the screen. I have no idea what he has done. I need help for sure.

He might have dropped or banged the iPad hard causing a hardware problem.
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Some people have found that giving the iPad a hard slap on the back cures the red tint problem. But it usually is a hardware failure. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

Can I return my iPad to previous software update

Having updated to iOS 8 my ipad 2 is very slow and buggy. Can I return it to iOS 7.

Sorry, no. Apple does not support downgrading.
You can try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and see if that helps. You can also try to force quit extra apps to free up system resources. Double tap the home button. Flick the previews for any apps you don't need off the page to close them, then single tap the home button to exit the mode.
If that doesn't help you can look into restoring your iPad. I don't have a link handy to the article, but basically it's backing up your data then 'erasing' your iPad back to just the basic operating system. You then restore your data from that backup. Sometimes a fresh start can clear out cobwebs.

HT5622 On my Ipad how can I change the apple/iCloud id to my husbands id but keep the iTunes id as mine

I Am trying to 'give' my iPad to my husband, when I try to change my iCloud id to his by entering his email it tells me this is already in use (he has an Apple id for his iPhone). Another message I had was to use the new email address (his) with the old password (mine). I am confused - I did not have this problem when I gave him my iPhone 4s. (That was iOS 7 the iPad is now updated to iOS 8, if that makes a difference)
thank you

Hi Very Baffled,
Happy Holidays! The article below outlines the recommended steps to take before giving your iPad to your husband. The main point is to backup the iPhone, and then erase all content and settings.
That way, your husband will have a "new" device and when he sets it up with his own Apple ID ... all of his content will be added to the iPad.
What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201351
If you still have your iOS device
Before you sell or give away your iOS device, make sure that you've removed all of your personal information. Follow these steps to protect your data and get your device to its factory default state for the new owner:
Back up your device.
Sign out of iCloud:
Tap Settings > iCloud, scroll down, and tap Sign Out. In iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account.
Tap Sign Out again, tap Delete from My iPhone, then enter your password.
Go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Erase All Content and Settings.
This will completely erase your device, including any credit or debit cards you added for Apple Pay and any photos, contacts, music, or apps. It will also turn off iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, Game Center, and other services.
If you're using iOS 7 or later and have Find My iPhone turned on, your Apple ID and password will be required. After you provide your password, the device will be erased and removed from your account so that the next owner can activate it.
Your content won't be deleted from iCloud when you erase your device.
Contact your carrier for guidance on transferring service to the new owner. If you aren't using a SIM-card with your device, you can contact them to get help transferring service to the new owner.
When the new owner turns on the device for the first time, Setup Assistant will guide them through the setup process.
Important: Don't manually delete contacts, calendars, reminders, documents, photo streams, or any other iCloud data while signed in to your iCloud account, or the content will also be deleted from the iCloud servers and all of your devices that are signed in to iCloud.

My iPad is not being recognised by iTunes ? Its the latest retina display model. Your help would be hugely appreciated

Any help you can offer would be great.

Is your iTUnes up to date?
Try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
Beyond that, what are you doing and what is it saying? Any error messages?
