I have the iPad 2 (verizon). The lock rotation is always on (can't change it) and NONE of the sound effects work.

Since yesterday evening, the lock rotation icon is stuck on, and none of the sound effects work. I have factory restored and restored from a backup twice, same result. And I'v checked the headphone jack.
Am I missing something?

Assuming that you havn't turned the volume completely down, then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar (and similarly for rotation lock) : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

    I have the sound effects icon in the middle of my screen and I want it to go away! How do I get rid of  it?

    Try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that fixes it.

    When I turned on my Ipad to use, the sound effects logo appearned in the center of my page, how do I remove it?

    Try,
    Settings > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > then switch this to Off it is on.
    If this is not on, then please go through all the Accesssibility controls and make sure that they are all set to Off. From you description, I would guess that one of them is on.

  • I have a ipad which has been locked due to the owner claiming it was lost.  I have had the serial no. checked and it is not stolen but I can't use it.

    i have a ipad which has been locked due to the owner claiming it was lost.  I have had the serial no. checked and it is not stolen but I can't use it.  I have talked to the owner many times who refuses to give me the password or has no idea what password was used.

    Unfortuinately there is nothing that can be done.
    If its locked its locked.  This is a theft deterrant mechanism.
    If you could unlock "stolen" ipads then there would be no purpose for the feature.
    You will have to convince the owner you bought it correctly, or accept its no lonnger usable by you until the original owner removes the lock.

  • I have a new iPad with wifi. When I send messages I can see my sons and my husbands but not my phone number.  We all have an iPad and all use the same apple ID as iPad the bill.  How can I remove their numbers and add mine?

    Add another e-mail account to your messages, so people could reach you on that e-mail from messages. As soon as you are online (if you have wifi only iPad) you are able to send and receive messages. i.e. your son can send you a messages from his iPhone addressing it to your (that additional) e-mail address.

  • I have an ipad first generation.  I am trying to connect to a linksys router and it is not finding the wireless network.  what do i need to do?

    I have an ipad first generation.  I am trying to connect to a linksys router and the ipad is not finding the wireless network.  What do I need to do?  Thanks for your help.

    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

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

    You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync your content to it.
    If you do it via a different computer that it's not normally synced to then (from here) :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • The sound effects on my apps have quit. How do I fix this?

    The sound effects on my apps have quit. How do I fix this?

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • I have an ipad 2, verizon jet Pak router, canon pixma mg3220 wireless printer. All were working until yesterday. Now I get  no air printer found message. Have shut down everything and restarted. No change

    I have an ipad 2, verizon jet Pak router ang canon pixma mg3220 wireless printer. All were working until yesterday. Now, I am getting no air printer message. Have shut everything down and restarted. It did not work.

    See requirements for AirPrint (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356):
    If your printer supports AirPrint but does not work then:
    Your printer might need a firmware update
    Your printer must be on the same WiFi network
    Your router must support Bonjour (Zero-configuration networking).
    For troubleshooting:
    Turn Off iPad, WiFi router (remove from power), and Printer (remove from power).
    Turn on WiFi router
    Wait 30 seconds
    Turn on printer
    Wait 30 seconds
    Turn on iPad
    Try to print.

  • I just purchased a 6  and there is a static sound coming out of the speaker when it is idle. I have the sound on low and turned off and it still makes the static sound.

    I just purchased a 128 Gig iPhone 6+. When I have the sound off and volume as low as possible, I get a static sound coming out of the speakers. It is distracting and annoying when I am in meetings, etc. Does anyone know what to do? Thanks in advance.

    Couple of things you can try but it looks like you may have to take it in
    1. Settings --> Cellular --> Change "Enable LTE" to just "Data" if available
    2. Toggle your ringer off and on
    3. Settings --> General --> Accessibility --> Toggle Noise reduction off and on
    If none of the above works - consider taking it to Apple
    If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support

  • My teenage daughter and i share an apple id on both of our iphones.  she now has an ipad with a her own apple id.  How can we change the apple id on her phoneand not loose any contacts or songs?

    My teenage daughter and i share an apple id on both of our iphones (2 phones both are 5s) .  She now has an ipad with a her own apple id.  How can we change the apple id on her phone so that is the same as the ipad and not loose any contacts or songs?

    Did you take a look at the new feature Apple - iOS 8 - Family Sharing ?
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
    Up to now, songs bought from iTunes could only be played by the Apple ID that has been used to buy them.
    If you set up Family Sharing, your daughter can also play your songs and use the same contact info as before.
    If you don't want to do that, sync the contact info to the address book on your computer, and sync the info back, using iTunes:
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
    If the iPad already has her Apple ID and contact info on it, restore the phone from the latest iPad backup.
