Had problem w/ new iPad mini w/retina display. Could never get it to stay connected on a consistent basis to my ATT Netgear wireless. Does anyone have a solution?

Had problem with new iPad mini with retina connecting to my ATT net gear modem. Finally gave up and exchanged it for new air. Have had no problems with air connection. Has anyone had mini issues with ATT?

I too have experienced this issue over the past two days... I have a 16gb ipad mini retina, for reference. I bought the device one week ago, and had not experience any issues at all until bringing my device to work. I logged into my work's enterprise level wireless network both yesterday and today, maintained normal wifi capabilities for 2-4 hours each day, and was then randomly dropped, both days. I tried hard resets, resetting my network settings, airplane mode, etc. Nothing has worked. I am still offline on my ipad mini retina.
My iPhone 5 is sitting right next to my iPad mini retina. The iPhone is currently connected to the same very network, and has been for the past two years. I have never lost connection on my iPhone's wifi, just my iPad mini retina.
This must be some kind of bug, as it does not sound like a hardware nor network issue.
Hopefully they fix this in 7.1.

New ipad mini with retina display 128gb performance poor

i just bought my new ipad mini with retina display 128gb, but i after i tried to run in for some apps, i found out the performance is very poor, and i just wondering izzit im the only one who had this problem which i get the lousy ipad mini or every one else who bought the ipad mini 2 got this problem?? My game apps list like below. the game will lag 1 second sometimes: anomaly 1, anomaly korea, minigore 2. And when i run anomaly 2, it's lag like the old device >_< (p/s when i run anomaly 2 on my ipad 2, it run smooth than my ipad mini 2 ) so izzit other got the problem like me?

Well I don't think is the app problem, since yesterday I already called my country apple customer centre, they told me to reset all setting for my device, the problem is then solve, my anomaly 2 not even lag anymore, and they call me observe 24 hours see how the device work. At first the device work well and no lag anymore for my other game and anomaly 2 too, but after a night, this morning when I wake up, the problem is occurring again, my anomaly 2 is lag as before >_< so I make a call and they call me to restore factory setting, then after restore, the problem solve again , but still I had to observe few more days, if same thing happen again, then they will call me send back my ipad to give them double check and if the device got problem , they promised me will exchange the new one for me ~ will keep update see how after a few day~

Will the new iPad Mini with Retina Display fit into the older iPad Mini case? (Will it be the same size?)

I am planning to purchase the new iPad Mini with Retina Display when it comes out this month. I am curious to know whether it will fit into the older iPad Mini cases that are currently available. I wasn't sure whether I should go ahead and buy a case, or if I should wait due to a size difference. Thanks!

The 'old' case will cover the rear microphone, but the new and currently sold iPad mini smart case has the cutout for the rear microphone. It can clearly be seen on mini Smart Case photo.
I had a black mini SmartCase on order at the time I posted the above. Although my mini-retina won't arrive for a couple of weeks the case arrived today. I has the cutout for the rear microphone just as shown in the images on the Apple Store.

TS3274 I have a new iPad mini w/retina display. Recently, the screen flickered with red lines across the entire screen. Anyway, the screen eventually went black. Now it does't work. Anyone have any suggestions?

My screen just went haywire. The screen flickered with red strips vertically. I thought it was part of the game I was operating until the screen went black and a white strip illiminated at the top. I tried turning teh system off, but it would not allow me to turn it off. After about 5 minutes, I was able to turn it off. Anyone have this occur? The Ipad mini appears to be ok now.

I Also have this problem!!
In my situation, the screen simply started exhibiting the same symptoms a few weeks ago (early February) for no apparent reason. At first I thought the screen was dead, but discovered the heat solution by accident. Now I turn it on and keep it from going to sleep until I go to bed. Thank goodness the battery is still awesome on this thing.
I bought it new and still has the original screen, I keep it at home (never below 62 degrees). Coincidentally, this happened a day or two after the expiration of the warranty!! Any help figuring this one out would be eternally appreciated.
iPad mini retina Wi-Fi, iOS 8.1.3

Does the new smart case of the new ipad mini with retina display fits on the ipad mini 1st generation?

Because the ipad mini 1g is 7,2mm and the ipad mini retina display is 7,5mm thick,

If you have a retailer near you, take your iPad in. Often they will let you try the case on before you buy it.
If the case is a slip case or a silicone one you might have better luck than a hard plastic one.

Wifi does not work correctly on iPad Mini w/ Retina display

I've found that Wifi does not work properly on the iPad mini w/ Retina display.
Some background: I own three iPads (iPad mini w/ retina display, iPad mini, and iPad 3rd gen), an iPod touch 5th gen, and a Macbook Air, and use them all frequently with my pocket Wifi router.
None of them exhibit any Wifi problems whatsoever except for my iPad mini w/ retina display.
Here are the details:
In the middle of using Wifi with my pocket Wifi router, the Wifi connection will abrubptly drop, then reconnect. After the Wifi reconnects, it is no longer able to connect to the internet (even though Wifi itself is connected).
Once the iPad mini w/ retina display's Wifi gets into this state, the following may or may not restore WiFi temporarily:
Restart the device
Reset network settings
Yet, even if connectevitiy is restored, the problem will happen again within minutes.
When the iPad mini w/ retina display gets into this state, the Wifi on my iPod touch, other iPads, and on my Macbook Air work perfectly fine, so I know the problem is not with my Wifi device or it's connection, but specifically with the iPad mini w/ retina display
Note:
The iPad mini w/ retina display never has any issues with my home or work Wifi networks. The problem only happens when connected to my pocket Wifi device. Yet, all of my other iOS devices and my MacBook Air work perfectly with my pocket Wifi device, therefore I know the problem is not with the pocket Wifi device, but with the iPad mini with retina display.
Solutions:
Resetting the iPad mini w/ retina display to factory settings does not solve the problem
Resetting network settings on the iPad mini w/ retina display does not solve the problem
I have even replaced my original iPad mini w/ retina and got a new one. Yet, the new device exhibits the exact same behavior as the original device.
Conclusion:
I know this is not a hardware problem (since it happened with both my original as well as replacement device).
I know this is not a problem with my pocket WiFi router, since it works perfectly with all of my other iOS devices and MacBook Air.
Therefore, this must be a software / firmware bug with the iPad mini w/ retina display. Apple will need to fix this in a future software update.
Has anyone else seen this problem?

IPad Mini with Retina Display 128gb speed

Hi there!
I have just gotten my new iPad Mini with Retina Display 128gb a couple of days ago. I wanted to know does the capacity affects the performance or speed of the iPad Mini? Meaning is 128gb speed is slower than 64gb one? Your thoughts are deeply appreciated!

Well I don't think is the app problem, since yesterday I already called my country apple customer centre, they told me to reset all setting for my device, the problem is then solve, my anomaly 2 not even lag anymore, and they call me observe 24 hours see how the device work. At first the device work well and no lag anymore for my other game and anomaly 2 too, but after a night, this morning when I wake up, the problem is occurring again, my anomaly 2 is lag as before >_< so I make a call and they call me to restore factory setting, then after restore, the problem solve again , but still I had to observe few more days, if same thing happen again, then they will call me send back my ipad to give them double check and if the device got problem , they promised me will exchange the new one for me ~ will keep update see how after a few day~

IPad mini with retina display flickering screen

I just received my brand new iPad mini with retina display yesterday and today the screen started flickering and would not stop. I've powered it off and did a hard reset..the flickering will not go away. I even completely erased everything off the iPad and reset it using the settings menu. The flickering is still showing on the opening hello screen. Any ideas why this is happening?

I'm having a similar problem as "nickyizdal" and went through the same scenario, as far as erasing everything. Unfortunately, I have gotten this ipad mini a few months now...not sure if updating it to IOS 8.1.3 had anything to do with it, but this issue happened a few days after that update.
Any help would be appreciated. Thx.

I want to restart my iPad mini with retina display from scratch. I can't

I was trying to get some purchased apps onto my new ipad mini with retina display. Problem, I can't seem to download everything so I want to start over. How can I restart or reload my iPad mini?

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
3. Repeat the process if necessary.

Is an iPad mini with retina display the complete same size as an iPad mini without retina display?

I'm trying to find a good sleeve for my new Ipad mini (with retina display), but keep coming across two options.
1) Sleeve for iPad mini with retina display
2) Sleeve for iPad mini
Is there a difference in size? I'm mainly asking as I've found one I would like, but it doesn't mention the retina display..
Hope someone out there has an answer to my question.
Thanks,
Kat

There is a .3mm difference in depth.

IPad Mini with Retina Display

I bought a new iPad Mini with Retina Display and the only charger that seems to work is the one it came with. Any other lightning chargers I have bought (including a 30 pin to 8 pin connector) won't charge. Not only is it annoying to have a 3ft cable to charge, but it's annoying to have only one cord.
Does anyone know why the other chargers won't work?

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

Ipad Mini w/Retina Display - Question -

Recently purchased the new iPad Mini w/Retina Display for teaching/education purposes. I want to use it with a ViewSonic VGA Projector to make use of my purchased iTunes content. (please note not yelling here, just trying to highlight my question) WHAT CONNECTOR DO I USE TO VIEW ITUNES PURCHASED CONTENT VIA A VGA PROJECTOR??? - I know everyone is disgusted with many of the Apple connectors that they offer which does the trick for displaying YouTube or NetFlix content or KeyNote Presentation info, but I need to view my legally purchased iTunes HD content - The error message that I get is as follows - "The Connected Display is NOT authorized to play protected movies" - yet, I purchased these movies? so what is up with that? I want to know what connector I can buy that gets around this issue. Thank you.
AND if there isn't a connector available then how to I get around it, because there is always a way... Thank you.

A mini-education:
GPS signals are separate from and completely unrelated to both the Internet and the cellular telephone network. GPS signals come directly from the GPS satellites. They provide signals that allow GPS receivers to calculate latitude and longitude information. Map software then takes that latitude/longitude info and converts it to land mass, roads, bridges, highways, buildings, etc. Navigation software is "map software on steroids." It goes one step further in that it provides real-time directions to enable you to reach a desired destination.
Most navigation software stores the maps right in the iPad/iPod/iPhone but a disadvantage is that the maps must be periodically updated (perhaps once/year). The Internet is not required to use the system but it is required to update the maps.
Some navigation software gets the maps from the Internet and requires an Internet connection to function but an advantage is that the maps are always up-to-date.
The WiFi+3G/4G iPad and the iPhone both have a GPS receiver. The WiFi-only iPad and the iPod do not and these devices require an accessory.

IPad Mini with Retina display with intermittent airplay connectivity

I have the new Ipad Mini with Retina display. My airplay on it worked flawless for the first two days and then there was an update for 7.0.4 and now it works intermittently. I have verified the wireless connection, updates and made sure that APTV2 is ON and connected to the same wireless. Is there something else I am missing ? I have also verified my router settings.
Thanks!

YOu can thx Apple for ios8, the most bugged soft in history.

New iPad mini with Retina won't pair with new Bluetooth speakers

Just got a brand new 16gb iPad mini with Retina display and also TDK (Life on Record) Bluetooth speakers. The iPad mini will not display the speakers on the optional bluetooth menu when I attempt to pair. I have tried all combinations of rebooting and making sure there are no other bluetooth signals near. Please help.
PS - My iPhone pairs perfectly so nothing wrong with the speakers. And yes I unpaired and tried turning off the phone when attempting to pair the iPad

This worked on my TDK speaker, first time you sync a new device, hold down Bluetooth button on device until it beeps then turn on iPad bluetooth and it will detect and then connect. I hooked two new minis to it by this procedure., clearing the device each time by holding down the Bluetooth button until beep. Once connected this way one time the speaker remains in my iPhone and the two iPads and connects with no problems now. I guess some devices hold one connection in the memory but once your Idevice has the info it can connect.

Had problem w/ new iPad mini w/retina display. Could never get it to stay connected on a consistent basis to my ATT Netgear wireless. Does anyone have a solution?
