Steelers guy or girl was not responding to your question, since the original question was asked nearly 2 years ago. Perhaps you should start your own question.

I have just bought an ipad mini with ret.display, I wish to link up my MacBook Pro to icloud with my ipad, but my MacBook doesnt have an icloud icon in system preferences. How do I upgrade my MacBook to accept iCloud link.
See -> Mavericks System Requirements.
Most of us are running Mavericks with no problems - others seem to be having various problems (if you check out the Mavericks forum). But I would recommend that you have a current backup whichever way you go.

Can anyone please help
Hi Pa23from Argyllshire,
This error: I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts, music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes should not occur.
The best guess is this crash is caused due to an issue with the PC.
Make sure your iPad is updated to the latest operating system: iOS 7.0.4 and make sure iTunes is updated to iTunes 11.
iTunes 11 is optimised for iOS 7, so if you have an iOS 7 device and non iTunes 11 computer, life would be hard.
Try to update iTunes to 11.1.3 from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Even try uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing. iTunes will not lose any of your iTunes songs when your un-install it as iTunes stores every media item in a folder found in (or around): C:\Users\NAME\Music\iTunes
Obviously iTunes and iDevices work best using Mac iTunes however; iTunes 11 and iOS 7 iPad Mini should work fine.
In summary possible solutions:
1. Update iPad Mini to iOS 7 or better (iOS 7.0.4)
2. Update iTunes to iTunes 11.1.3
3. Restart both PC and iPad
4. Uninstall iTunes from PC
Many Thanks, Happy New Year and I look forward to hearing from you regarding this crash!

I have just bought an iPad mini and can't seem to transfer one of my apps of my iPhone 5. How do I do this?
first time you connect it to the computer you sync the iphone with it should ask if you want to setup the ipad as a new device or restore it with a backup of another ios device
if you say yes the content of tne iphone will be put on the ipad
if you later one wish to do the same thing one can restore it by navigating to the ipad in itunes on the computer and choose to restore it there to the backup of the iphone
if you don't want to restore then you can just mark the apps in itunes you wish to sync to the ipad
if you don't sync with a computer then you can't be charged for an app more then once it's tied to your appleID and any attempt to buy it again will result in a free download
one can also access apps tied to the ios device under purchasees in the app store app -

please can some tell me how to add a ipad to an existing itunes account without it wiping my iphone
Hi shuvs,
Based on your description, you would most likely want to set it up as new, then simply add your iTunes account info during setup. There are also several other ways to add your existing content to your new iPad. You may find the following page helpful:

Just bought the ipad mini and on my mail icon the red dot is appearing and I have no new messages, only sent one message and no saved messages. How do I get the red dot to go away. Thank you for any help you can give me.
Tap Settings
Tap Notifications
Tap Mail
Tap the name of your email account (if you have more than one)
Look for Badge App Icon (see image below) -
I just bought an ipad mini with retina display. On my settings page it shows an update occurring for ios.7.0.4 with the message "Estimating time remaining..."
This update and message appeared last evening but doesn't seem to complete. It also says "downloading", but nothing is happening.
How can I complete the download or eliminate it?If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up.
You should have a look in:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
/Library/Extensions
You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple. -
Just bought an ipad mini. Trying to set up internet connection. It recognizes my connection but will not load. There is a padlock shown. How do I get to where I need to enter the password for my connection?
On your router/modem, there will be a Wi-Fi password. If you enter that into your iPad for your connection, then your iPad will have permission to connect to that access point and then you will be able to use your internet.

I have just bought the iPad Air but cannot access the roots I have on my iCloud account. They do appear on my old ipad 2, any ideas how I can access them please
Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,

I have just bought an iPad. I have already got an iPod and my wife has an iPhone 3. We use the same iTunes account. I am receiving text messages which people are sending to my wife's phone on my iPad. Could you please advise how I can stop that happening. Thank you.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
You need to create a new account for either yourself or your wife, you can choose whether to use this account for iCloud and therefore keep your personal data such as the contacts etc separate, you can continue to use the account you are both using for iTunes so that you may share the content you have already purchased, but each use your own account for iMessage which will stop you receiving each other's messages. -
Have just bought an Ipad 16gb but now wish I had got the 32gb. Can I do anything to increase it
Have just bought an Ipad retina 16gb and wish I had got the 32gb as once I put 3 or 4 films on to it I have no memory left. Any suggestions to increase memory or do I have to put up with it or bite the bullet and buy a 32 gb and try and sell the 16 gb.
If it has not been damaged, you have had it less than 14 days, and you purchased it from Apple, you shold be able to.
