How Can I Tell if My iPad Air Replacement is New or Refurbished

I'm getting a replacement iPad Air because mine had a problem with it, there were loose magnets in it. I've heard that people have another person's data on apps they have just downloaded and that makes me really uncomfortable.
How can I tell if my replacement is brand new or just refurbished? Is there info in the serial/model number?
Thanks.

You might hear a lot of things on the Internet but that doesn't make them true.
If you got a refurbished iPad from Apple it would be completely empty.
Refurbished iPads are identified on the packaging.
You can see the model number in Settings > Genera l> About > Model. The model number has a two-letter code, a number and some more letters. The last part stands for the country/region. The first letter can be "F" (refurbished), "M" (normal retail), or "P" (personalized / engraved).

    There is no "iPad 5" as an official model designation. Did you mean an iPhone 5 as you list in your profile?

    How can I tell if my Ipad is about to overcharge?  I can I avoid overcharging it? Thanks!

    There are no modern day consumer electronics that you can overcharge... they all have protection for this, i.e. they stop charging when full.  This may not be completely true for some really cheap Chinese knock-offs.

    How can I print from my ipad air without buying a new "air print" compatable printer? I currently have a HP Photosmart plus B210. Can I make that work?

    Although you have posted in a Mavericks forum, implying that you have a Mac computer, your profile doesn't say that you have one. Printer Pro requires the printer to be connected to a Mac.

  • I have a dual band router. How can I tell if my iPad is using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz.

    I have a dual band router. How can I tell if my iPad is using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz. I want to try and manage all the devices in the house over our WLAN. Thanks. Nik

    I'm not really sure there is a way to tell, it certainly doesn't seem to be something you can set within the iPad so I'd assume that if a 5Ghz frequency is available it would use that, otherwise it would default to using a 2.4Ghz frequency instead.  I'd also assume from having a 5Ghz router myself that there would be some sort of light on your router which will flash on/off when data is recieved so if iPad is your only 5Ghz device and it's sending/receiving data then this light should flash on your router.

  • I was sent an email which I thought was legit . I opened an attachment (zip file) but nothing in it. I phoned the bank to double check, and of course the email was bogus. How can I tell whether my macbook air version X.9.4 has a virus or not.

    I was sent an email which I thought was legit . I opened an attachment (zip file) but nothing in it. I phoned the bank to double check, and of course the email was bogus. How can I tell whether my macbook air version now has a virus?

    No Mac viruses are propagated through email.
    Be vigilant for suspicious activity as you normally should be, but do not download or install some "anti-virus" utility in an effort to fix a problem that does not exist. That's a well-worn path to certain misery.

  • How can I download iTunes for iPad Air?

    Any idea about how I can download iTunes for my iPad Air? If it it is to be downloaded from the App Store, what is the name of the App?
    Plus, how do I sync it to my iTunes library on my Windows PC?

    The iTunes App on an iDevice is not the same as the iTunes Application for a computer.

  • How can I tell if my songs got replaced by Itune version?

    I just subscribed to Itunes Match and it has finally uploading 2929 songs. How can I tell which of my songs got matched and I can get a higher quality version from Itunes? I want to replace those songs in my library.
    Thanks!

    You must enable the "iCloud Status" column. Switch to Song view and pull down View > View Options. Select the option for iCloud Status then close the little window. You will now be able to see the staus of each song. To download matched tracks, delete the original track from the library but do NOT hide the track in the cloud. Then click the download button.
