I can't roltate my ipad 2.

i cant' rotate my ipad 2 though i used to be able to do it when i bought last week. was trying hard reset /soft reset / change rotation setting etc.

Is the switch on the side (adjacent to the volume controls) locked?
This switch can be set to lock the screen rotation, and that sounds like the situation you're in. Unlock it and see what happens.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

  • How can I return my ipad 1 to pre OS5?

    how can I return my ipad 1 to pre OS5?
    Ive been reading the forums all over the place to find the solution to my ipad 1 continually crashing. it does it mainly in safari and the app store.
    Its really annoying when you're halfway through composing a long e-mail message and it just reverts back to the home screen.
    I'm perfectly happy to give up the advantages of IOs 5, because I would rather have a stable machine (like it used to be) than use the cloud and multitasking. (I don't use them anyway). I know that some of my apps might stop working but its more important to me that the basics work.
    cheers

    You cannot downgrade the iOS.  Once you upgrade, you're stuck with it.
    Part of your problem is that your iPad is old and it probably having difficulty keeping up with the data and protocols for the newer software.  It's probably time to send a note to Santa. 

  • Can I return my iPad to previous software update

    Having updated to iOS 8 my ipad 2 is very slow and buggy. Can I return it to iOS 7.

    Sorry, no. Apple does not support downgrading.
    You can try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and see if that helps. You can also try to force quit extra apps to free up system resources. Double tap the home button. Flick the previews for any apps you don't need off the page to close them, then single tap the home button to exit the mode.
    If that doesn't help you can look into restoring your iPad. I don't have a link handy to the article, but basically it's backing up your data then 'erasing' your iPad back to just the basic operating system. You then restore your data from that backup. Sometimes a fresh start can clear out cobwebs.

  • Can I return my iPad air

    I Just bought iPad air on 3/10/2013. Then I saw the iPad air 2  opened. I really want to buy iPad Air 2 more than iPad air. How can I return my iPad air to ipad air2.

    No.
    Apple does not do or accepts trade-ins for cash toward new Apple products. Apple isn't like a car dealer.
    You will have to sell your current iPad on your own and use the financial proceeds toward the purchase of a new iPad.

  • Can I return my IPAD to apple store because IOS6 is defective?

  • Can I return my ipad 2

    can i return my ipad 2 on the one year warrenty.... since the ipad HD came out I want to get the money for that so will apple take my ipad 2 back for that $500........ I have every thing that came with it and it still is in a brand new condition its gonna be me a full year in 2 months

    Warranties exist to ensure a product works for a specified time, not to return it for everything you paid.
    .... I have every thing that came with it and it still is in a brand new condition
    If it's a 64 GB 3G model then it could be worth $395 toward Apple Store credit:
    http://store.apple.com/us/browse/reuse_and_recycle
    but i do have problems with the battery of the ipad 2 it dies like at 20 35
    Then it is not in "brand new condition" and will be worth less than $395.

  • Can i return my ipad wifi for a wifi 3G eventhough it's engraved?

    Can i return my ipad wifi for a wifi 3G even though it's engraved?

    According to Apple's customer service line you can return an engraved iPad for an exchange, but it's not clear if it's within 14 or 30 days. If you call they says 30, but their site says 14. I think it has to be purchased straight through Apple though. Contact where you bought it from and tell them you are thinking of buying a iPad and having it engraved, but are concerned about the refund policy. They'll explain it in more detail at that time.

  • I can't activate my iPad and I'm sure i am using the correct apple id and password but when i press net it says it cannot be used to unlock this iPad

    i can't activate my iPad and I'm sure i am using the correct apple id and password but when i press net it says it cannot be used to unlock this

    You can try to figure out which Apple ID/email address and/or password you used to activate it by going to http://iforgot.apple.com
    If you can't, you'll need to contact Apple Account Security with your proof of purchase. 

  • How can I backup my iPad to another iPad backup on my same account.  They're both listed on my list of backups, but it won't let me choose to backup to the one I want on my other iPad which I no longer have.  But I specifically want the pictures

    How can I backup my iPad to another iPad backup I have on my same iCloud account.  The old one is totally gone.  Both backups are listed on my iCloud account. So is there any way I can backup the one I have now to the other one.  I really just want the pictures that are in the old backup.  I have tried resetting and erasing all settings and data on the one I still have, but when I go to restore by iCloud;  it only gives me the choice of restoring the same iPad.  Then in iCloud>storage>backup, I'm still not able to choose which backup to backup to.  I've even tried deleting the backup to the iPad I still have, then resetting all setting and data on the iPad, hoping that in resetting up the iPad it would give me the option to backup to my old iPad.  But it doesn't.  It still has memory of the backup of my newer iPad.
    I JUST WANT THE PICTURES!!!
    Thank you!!!
    iPad (3rd gen) Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 6.1.3, iCloud Backup

    You now need to get your pictures back! The similar to you, after I updated my iPad Mini, I can't get my some files on device. I tried many ways, fortunately, I got a tool from http://tinyurl.com/Data-Recovery-iPhone to help me recover lost files easily! It supports iPhone, iPad, iPod, etc iOS devices!

  • Can I use my iPad to connect to a Mobile Access Server on a Mac mini ?

    I run a small business and am considering setting up an internal network. The online "features" description for Mobile Access Server (a component of Snow Leopard Server) says I can connect remoetley from an iPod or a Mac. The iPad is not mentioned. can I use my iPad to connect to a Mobile Access Server?

    Yes. It's the same as connecting from an iPod touch or iPhone.
    Logmeinigniton or teamviewer are a few of the apps you can use.
    Teamvewer has free app and you can see if it does what you want.

  • I can not get my iPad to mirror with Apple TV. When I toggle to mirror the tv screen goes black and the iPad freezes. The iPad iso is up to date

    I can not get my iPad to mirror on Apple TV. When I toggle the tv screen goes black and the iPad freezes. Have updated the iOS to latest settings and also updated the settings on the Apple TV

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • I bought an IPAD air from state and the screen is not working correctly and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

    i bought an IPAD air (32 gb wifi only) from USA just one month ago and the screen is not working correctly(picture attached) and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

    Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that fixes it ? You might be able to get warranty service in Egypt for your iPad, but the warranty includes :
    IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE AND iPAD SERVICE.
    Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone and iPad to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
    As it's wifi-only you should have a better chance of it being serviced under warranty, but there are no guarantees, it might depend upon the repairer.
