I can text some people using my iPad but some people are blocked, I'm talking about the people in my contacts

Why are some of the mumbers in my contact list blocked from texting using my iPad?

If those people are not using an Apple device with iMessage account, then you cannot use iMessage to send to them. On an iPad, that means you will have to use one of the 3rd party apps to send text messages to them (examples are textme or textplus).

Can locate my iPhone on my iPad but no maps are shown

Since installing IOS8 no maps are showing with my apps

I think I may have had an initial problem with Maps not even showing the mapping inside the app itself. But, I did a power down and powering back up again, and it worked again.
And then, after you do that, the primary question I would want answered first, is if the map shows up inside the "Maps" app itself. If it does, that's a good sign ... :-) ... from that point forward, if the Maps app shows the maps inside it, is to check each individual app after that for its own mapping function and see if all the apps that use "Maps" from the app show up the maps or don't show up the maps. If you get a mix ... in other words, some apps are showing the maps and others are not, then I would start looking at each individual app and seeing if there is a particular problem with that one app. In that event, contacting the developer may help.
Sometimes, deleting an app and then reloading it again, has cleared up some glitches from within that particular app, and I've seen that as a solution from some developers about their own apps.
Those are the things that I would do.

ok, I did, and it said again congrats your iPhone is unlocked, but, when it said there was a new carrier update, I cancelled it, but, it asked me again, I cancelled again, I guess I'm scared it will lock it again if I allow the carrier update.
Oh, there it goes again, this time on the phone, arg. I hit update, I hope it doesn't freak out.
I'm glad I didn't destroy the SIM like I almost did. But, it will come out again, longer battery life with the cell portion turned off.

Why can I not scroll on some websites using my iPad

When I am on the online school website I am unable to scroll all the way down to view the entire assignment. I am assuming it is because there are multiple frames with different scroll bars. I have the ipad 2 and I have tried using 2 fingers, seeing if the site has different programs for using my ipad, but nothing seems to work. Should I try a firefox instead of safari?

Firefox is not available on the iPad - but the iCab Mobile browser is. You can identify the iCab browser as Firefox for Windows or for Mac. I am using it now. I never use Safari anymore - except when I tap on a link in an email and Safari automatically opens because it is the default browser.
If you want to look at another browser, take a look at iCab. It has a ton of great features.

Do you have one, two or more entries in the left colum of Mail.app for your mail server(s)? That is, do you have your Mail.app set up with either a btinternet entry, with a btyahoo entry, or both? Or more?
I'm guessing that you might have one account (btyahoo?) listed for incoming (IMAP server) mail, and with the outbound (SMTP server) mail is configured and named btinternet.
Based on what little I see posted, it looks like BT uses both btinternet and btyahoo, but I'm not exactly clear on how they have their stuff set up, and their web set gets helpful and tries to help configure my mail — I don't immediately see a single web page with the mail server set-up details. The BT email client set-up starts here.

How can I use my ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections. The apple store clerk told me that I can't use airport express unless I also have a computer with me in the hotel.

How can I use my Ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections? The Apple store clerk told me that travel express won't work in my hotel unless I also have a computer.

The issue with the Airport Express (or any of the Apple routers) is that you need the Airport Utility to configure it. Airport Utility works on OSX and Windows, but not on the iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch.) It will work, if you can preconfigure the Airport correctly ahead of time, but you'd be stuck if you did need to reconfigure while at the hotel.
You can use most any other router that is configured with a web page, which means you have a chance of configuring with Safari on the iPad. If you want something somewhat portable, I use a "travel router" made by D-Link. The current model is the DAP-1350. Other companies make similar travel routers, but I have no experience with the others.

I am so confused. I am thinking about buying an iPhone 4S but I want to use those card things that you can put the code in for the phone is this possible? I'm not talking about the 50$ unlimited card just the regular 20$ cards that hold mins and texts...

As far as I know there is no US cell carrier that allows pay as you go with an iPhone. You can purchase an unlocked iPhone 4S at an Apple Store and try it with a non-supported carrier.

I have created some movies using After Effects but can't open them now because I get the following message:

I have created some movies using After Effects but can't open them now because I get the following message:
Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0 or later. For now, ray-tracing will use the GPU.
After installing CUDA 5.0 or later, restart your computer.
For more information see: http//www.adobe.com/go/aeraytracedgpu
HELP. I have a project that needs to be delivered.

The alert message is just telling you that a specific feature won't use the GPU. This message is innocuous. It only means that the processing of one specific, obsolete feature will use the CPU, not the GPU.
Are you saying that After Effects won't start or open your project?

When I down load books, can I read them on my iPad and iPhone? I went to open a book on my phone but I got a message that aid something about the bill already associated with an appleid. I use the same id for both devices.

All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

If you are now in the US then you can only use the US store, so you should update the address on your account
Changing country : Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account.
Had you copied the songs over to your computer's iTunes library, do they show in the Music section on it ? You can copy purchases that you still have on your iPad over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option

I just got new ipad mini....I want to delete all of the music that was synced from my itunes account. I have went through and deleted some songs one by one but some have a cloud icon with a red arrow on them.....is there a simple way just to delete them?

Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

Select the Zoom Tool in the tool box and see if Scrubby Zoom is unchecked or greyed out in the tool options bar.
(you want Scrubby Zoom checked)
