HT4060 what is the charging time of new iPad 4th gen??

Hi have bought a new iPad 4th Generation. it takes more than 3 hrs to full charge even when i use its 10W adapter supplied with box. How much time exactly iPad takes to full charge??

That's a lot faster than most users report. Usually overnight.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W 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 (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%.

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.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

    What is the meaning of "(MM)" in ipad (4th generation) wifi   cellular (mm) ?

    I don't know what the "MM" stands for specifically, but those are the CDMA models, A1455 for the mini and A1460 for the 4th-gen iPad Retina.

  • TS4062 Home Mac running iOS 10.5.8. I can not sync new iPad 4th gen. I'm told I need iTunes 10.7,but I can not download the new soft ware. Unable to up grade soft ware for my Mac because its telling me its already up to date. What next for me to do?..than

    Can't photo stream from iMac 10.5.8. To new iPad 4th G. Can't seem to upgrade iTunes software . What can I do?.. Thanks John.

    Buy Snow Leopard upgrade:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    See if the iTunes update is available with software update, get it from downloads (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1576), or otherwise find the link to 10.7 in the "how do I downgrade from iTunes 11" threads. Most of them link to non-Apple sites carrying previous software versions like itunes 10.7.

  • No wifi connection on new iPad 4th gen

    Help please ive just bought the ipad 4th gen and it wont connect to any wifi networks, im unable to complete the setup because of this. Ive tried different networks and still nothing.I have also tried reseting it but nothing same thing keeps happening, is this common with the new ipads because i have the first one and have never had any trouble connecting to wifi

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • What is the Charging time for 4th generation iPad when fully discharged?

    Hi,
    I just want to know the 4th generation iPad charging time with 12 volts Charger when fully discharged?
    Thanks,
    Srinivas

    Apple does not publish charging times with various sources, but usually a few hours, like 4-6 hours.  If you charge it overnight you won't notice how long it takes.

  • What is the battery mah of ipod shuffle 4th gen?

    Im searching in the internet but i cant find the battery mah of my ipod shuffle 4th gen
    Iwant to know it because i will buy a powerbank

    I ran a few calculations to find the result. The battery in the 4th gen iPod shuffle runs at 0.17 watt-hours and at 3.7 volts. Converting that to miliamp-hours,  you get 51.3 miliamp-hours. Since I originally did these calculations for my brother, I calculated some usage statistics as well.  I have a 15,000mAh Anker battery (about a year old)  that I use for charging my devices.  I found that the Anker battery could theoretically charge the iPod just under 300 times.  Even if you use it 12 hours a day,  7 days a week,  the battery should last exactly 365.1 days. In short,  any size of battery will keep it charged for weeks and weeks.

  • My new iPad 4th gen won't come on. Any suggestions?

    I've had my iPad since Christmas, and haven't experienced any problems (although I have seen a couple of flickers with power or transitioning that I assumed could be typical) but this morning it just wouldn't come one.  It was on the charger, so it should have a 100% charge.  No storms in my area, all other electronics (including iPhone using same eletrical outlet).
    I've tried turning it off/on, and get no response.  I've tried plugging it into multiple ports in my computer (which work with my iPhone) and get no response.
    Suggestions?

  • New Ipad (4th gen) crashed/froze three times in the last few hours.

    After resetting it stays on the apple logo screen. No indication to connect to itunes (and it doesn"t connect)

    Thanks

    Try and force your iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost.

  • Is Win 7 Pro compatible with new iPad 4th gen Wifi?

    Actually I know that it is... but my computer is failing to download the driver when I plug the iPad in to synch my music from iTunes. I am synching what I've downloaded from CD's not what I've purchased through iTunes. Anyway, is the driver available somewhere that I can manually download? I've restarted several times and keep having the same issue. I've looked online, downloads.com and other places, but not found anything I recognize as the solution.
    Thanks for your help!
    David

    Driver is included in Itunes software during download and after download is in AMDS. You can try to reinstall driver as long as itunes download was not corrupted by your security or firewall.
    It is actually described here, but not an easy process sometimes.

  • Why doesn't the camera app on my iPad (4th Gen) with iOS7.02  doesn't show panorama option ?

    I have updated my iPad 4 ( WiFi & GPRS) with iOS 7.02. The Apple website's "know more on iOS7" clearly displays availability of Panorama option under Camera section. But the camera app, which otherwise works fine on my iPad, doesn't show panorama option ?  Is it that it is available only on Phone 5S? How may I get this option.

    iPhone 4S, 5, 5C, 5S, & iPod Touch 5th generation only.

  • HT5423 How many hours is the charging time of the iPad 4th gen?

    I am charging my ipad, & noticed that its been 9 hours & still its 90 percent. I just wanna know, how many hours is the charging time of an iPad before it gets 100% full? & is it normal that the charger become hot? Hope someone can answer this question. Thank u. 

    Chargers, and the unit being charged where the battery is located, will get warm during charging...charging does work on the battery.  If it is hot or too hot to handle then you need to decide if it is too uncomfortable and needs to be checked at the Apple store genius bar.
    Nine hours is a long time to charge, but if you discharged all the way it can take 4-8 hours to fully charge.
    If the charger is getting very hot and taking a long time to charge you may want to take it to the genius bar and have it checked by the techs.

  • My iPad 4th gen takes 10+ hours to charge!?

    My new iPad 4th gen wi-fi takes an extremely long time to charge, upwards of 8-12 hours. I have had no other issues with it so far but I came from an iPad 2 which took maybe 2-3 hours to charge. I am just curious if this is normal or should I consider exchanging it before its too late. Thanks

    I've been using my 4th Gen iPad since early January and have to charge it overnight as it takes so long... not just the initial charge... every charge. It's pointless trying to do it during the day as it invariably means I can't use it, without being next to the wall.
    I had assumed that the battery in this model is bigger and takes longer. My wife's 2nd Gen iPad charges in only a couple of hours.
    I must say i'm impressed with the life of each charge though. My normal use means it generally needs to be charged every 2-3 days.

  • HT204291 I updated my apple tv to the latest firmware. I seem to have lost the ability to mirror my ipad 3rd gen. Can anybody help

    I bought an apple tv for its ability to mirror any of the content on my new ipad 3rd gen. Now after updating my apple tv i seem to have lost the ability to mirror my tablet onto the screen. Can somebody help with this. I have tried to do everything. I made sure both my apple tv and my ipad are connected to the same network. I also made shure my bluetooth was off. I can still airplay with my brothers iphone 4s. ( ios5.1) but i cannot do the same with my tablet.

    To U2SockMonkey,
    You must be a newbie, because otherwise you would have fixed it. I don't have that mirroring problem and it must be because you are not looking around and inform yourself thoroughly. It took me also 2 days of grief before I found out how to do it. Not even to mention that the Apple Engineer that I called did not have a solution either and just suggested that I should send my Apple TV back or go to a Apple Store nearby.
    I was pretty annoyed about that such a little black box was giving me grief. I have been working in the IT industry for over 30 years and I know quite a bit inside out about many hardware's. But my opinion is that sending out Version 6.0 Aka 5.1 as you rightfully say is not on with me.
    This is the same behaviour that Apple now does as Microsoft forever is doing. Not finishing the products and putting it on the market or release it before it is finished and has bugs in it.
    Personally this irks me and annoys me. Because I am in that field for many years and have seen what grief it causes. I have noticed that an Administrator has removed another post that I made about other matters concerning iPads and especially with iPad 3 and 4 now and that there are also other people who make inflamatory remarks to people ( Julian Wright for e.g.)  about how they have to spend their money for the latest stuff of Apple and come over very aggressive, selfish, if not evil.
    For your information, I used to work for Apple, I know Apple inside and how they work and what they used to do ? They were really nice for their employees and customers. But I think that has changed now for whatever reason they have. Very disappointing. It's up to Apple not to listen, I have no control of that, but it will cost them at some point.
    Besides that point, I feel that some people are been taken for a ride and when I am expressing that this is not OK I should be rewarded for that instead of being rejected.

  • HT201406 Can screenprotectors affect touchscreen functionality on the iPad 4th gen?

    I have a brand new iPad 4th gen and had a Zagg Invisishield screen protector put onto it.  I want to know if that can cause touchscreen issues.  I have found there are dead spots on the touchscreen and also at times, phantom touching happening as well.  I don't want to remove the screen protector until I know for sure because it was a little pricey.

    I am having the same problems with some apps.  Ice Age Village does not work now with Ipad 4.
