How do I get iPad to recognize my location

How do I get iPad to recognize my gps loction

A WiFi-only iPad does not have GPS. Location services with a WiFi-only unit are dependent on the WiFi router being entered into whatever database Apple uses for that router's location. If the router isn't in the database - and there's no way for any of us users to enter or change the information - then no location will be returned. The same will apply to an incorrect location.
If your iPad won't show any sort of location regardless of what WiFi router its connected to, post back and someone can probably offer further advice.
Regards.

  • My ipad says I have not subscribed to Imatch after I have, and won't let me turn it on on my ipad. How do I get ipad to recognize I have purchased imatch through my pc?

    I purchased imatch on my pc in itunes, but when I try to turn it on on my ipad, it says i need to subscribe. How do I get my ipad to recognize that I have subscribed to imatch so it will let me turn it on?

    Are you signed into the same Apple ID in Settings>iTunes & App Stores that you used to purchase iTunes Match?  If not, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the correct ID.

  • How do I get iTunes to recognize a new device if I accidentally did not hit new device when I first hooked it up? I hit the button that said I wanted to back it up from my old info

    How do I get iTunes to recognize a new device if I accidentally did not hit new device when I first hooked it up? I hit the button that said I wanted to back it up from my old phone. The new phone is my husbands and I don't want to back up my phone info on it. I re connected it hoping it would prompt me with the option again and it doesn't , it just shows up as a back up to my phone. How can I get it to give me that option in the beginning again

    First of all, I think the first time you sync an iPod that's formatted for Windows on a Mac, the sync process reformats it for Mac. You can check what it is now by looking for the iPod with Disk Utility. If it's Mac OS Extended, it's formatted for Mac already.
    Also, there is no current iPod updater app these days. iTunes handles it through the Restore button. If you are not able to use the latest iTunes because of your Mac, I can understand. The latest version of iTunes should run with 10.3.9 or later, if the hardware can handle it.
    You said the battery was low so let it recharge for a while.
    You should also reset the iPod. It's part of the 5Rs, which you should go through as the starting point for iPod trouble-shooting.

  • When I open InDesign files from our design team, the fonts don't show up even though I have them installed on my computer. How do I get it to recognize fonts I have installed?

    I use my Adobe programs from the Creative Cloud. When our design agency sends me files, I open them and fonts I have on my computer aren't showing up when I open the file. Everywhere online it says I need to add the fonts to InDesign's font file, but since I'm working out of the Creative Cloud, I don't have that option. How do I get InDesign to recognize these fonts when I'm opening files from our agency?

    ID sees fonts installed on your computer and contained in a Document Fonts folder in the same folder as the document, if one exists.
    I don't really understand what you are saying about fonts you have installed not showing up. And cloud makes no difference -- all the applications and support files are installed on your hard drive.

  • How do I get finder to recognize my hard drive after pulling my hard drive out without eject...? Is my hard drive dead? I see it in disk utility... Can I get my info back?

    I have a seagte back up plus. I pulled my hard drive out without ejecting it and now finder dosn't find it but I see it in disk utility (although I cant repair permissions) How do I get finder to recognize my hard drive after pulling my hard drive out without eject...? Is my hard drive dead? I see it in disk utility... Can I get my info back?
    Thank you so much for any help

    In Disk Utility you need to see a volume or partition in addition to the drive.
    If all you see is the drive, then when you ejected it you proably corrupted the volume or partition on the drive.
    If that is true then your chances of getting anything back are slim at best.
    About the only thing I know that might work not is to send the disk out to a service for recovery. This is going to cost like $$$$.
    Is the data worth that much?
