I just downloaded iOS 8 on my iPad air. This has caused the file names of all of my PDFs in iBooks to revert to their original file name when I downloaded the file, not the custom file names I gave them after downloading the files. In the list of fil

PDF file names changed with iOS 8

Further to above
Progress Notable!
But before I outline the details, I wish to apologise to APPLE for laying the blame at their doorstep for loosing or misplacing those PDFs I have on the iPad 1, when I set up my iPad Air , by restoring from the backup of iPad 1, thus copying all data from the old to the new.
NOT REALLY THEIR FAULT AT ALL
Because a lot of the many PDFs had the same name, ie PDF.pdf, probably my fault more than anybody else's, so I can't blame APPLE for that. Just goes to show one should be a little more precise in creating these portable documents.
No wonder the poor program " lost its' marbles" when doing the updating and conversion/transfer.
However, I was able to recover most of them by personal email, and extracting and RENAMING the PDFs as I located them in their new home.
Those PDFs that we're locked an thus not email-able , I will deal with by
Viewing
Photoeing (if that's how you spell it).
And re-building the PDF from the photos, in unlocked format, after transferring these files either by Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, from the old to the new iPad.
So all is not lost, and I am thankful that my cautious approach to this matter in the first place, gave me the ability for this successful recovery.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
I hope this little story of my saga/experience may prove helpful to others yet to cross the chasm of updating.
Regards to all, including APPLE.
NICE STUFF YOU MAKE.

I want to stream itunes movies I've bought on my ipad air to my lg smart tv. From the 'Home' screen of the lg, there is no itunes app shown that would somehow let me share info with my ipad air. Has anyone the answer. Am I missing something here?

I have an lg smart TV. I also just bought an apple ipad air,Wi-Fi Cellular 16GM I've signed up the air to itunes and just purchased a movie on the ipad air. I was able to stream the movie on my air and my pc, which is of course wirelessly connected to my smart TV. I've searched the 'Home' screen of the lg to find a way to also stream that movie on the lg. Am I somehow just not reading right and missing the point, or is what I'm trying to do not possible?

I have raised this issue with apple support this week too after my Facetime and iMessage stopped working on Saturday.
Been very interesting to read the ever increasing number of comments and issues being raised on this one (more than 500 views and dozens of replies so far).
My post is here:
imessage and Facetime sign in activation error iPad ios8.1.2
What is especially interesting about your post is that you had your iPad Air replaced in November 2014 in the UK. I bought my iPad Air originally in October 2014, and had to have it replaced in an Apple Store in Bristol in November after the original stopped charging. This does make me wonder if there is a batch of faulty iPads? Mmm...
I have raised a fully escalated support case with Apple on this, and their latest response is that a 'patch' or fix is being investigated by their engineers and to wait a week or so at which point they might be releasing it to affected users - or even across every users.
I wish there was a way to get this to Apple's attention and the wider media as well, but I don't know how best to do that.
I guess the best thing we can do is keep hassling Apple for a response and raising support cases

Just got my new iPad Air and noticed that the screen calibration is off. For example if I select the circle to place something there I have to select outside of the circle to make it happen. I did not have this issue on my previous iPad.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
If no fix, Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

HT202020 Using a SDHC card adapter I can import directly on my iPad2 videos (.mov) taken with a Panasonic DMC-ZS3. The same video files (same file format) imported in Aperture 3.3 cannot be synchronized with iPad. Is Aperture causing the problem?

Oh, baby! This bad boy flies!! Here's what to expect:
I had 40,000 images in Aperture 3 and it was dog slow at everything. I installed 3.1 update today. It took 5 minutes to update the database and then behaved marginally better than before at ASIC library navigation. I was disappointed.
Then I QUIT the app. It took a couple of hours to "update files for sharing" with a counter that went to 110,000 images. So it must have updated every thumbnail and variation of preview. Turned it back on , and BAM. Came up fully in seconds. Paused for 10 seconds ten everything was lickrty split. For the first time ever, I can use the Projects view with all 791 projects and scroll quickly. I even put it in photos modevand whipped thru all 49,000 images!
Haven't done anybprocessing yet, but i'm liking it!!

HT201269 I am trying to transfers my iPad 2 apps to me new iPad Air, but some of the apps did not back up on the computer. Every time I go to back up the old device, some of the apps don't get transferred. My big concern is the Olive Tree Bible Study wo

I have the Olive Tree Bible Study app, which is one of the best tools I have ever used for study and within the app I purchased several resources/concordances that are very useful (plus they had up in the wallet, but very worth it)
I had it on my iPad 2 and when I went to back it up on my iMac, the app doesn't populate in the apps tab. This also applies to some of my games but I'm not that worried about losing those.
I am trying to get those particular apps on my iPad Air.
Has anyone else come across an issue like this?
Thanks and I appreciate anyone's time.

Go into the App Store from your iPad and select Purchased, then select Not onThis iPad, and download the apps that you want. Because you already own them you can download them again for free ... provided that you are using the same Apple ID as you used when you originally purchased them.
In fact when I look up the Olive Tree app, it seems like the main app is free in any case.
Once you are in the app look for some option to restore purchases.

Has anyone found a way to download pictures fro Samsung Galaxy 3 phone to the Ipad air? I bought the lightning adapter but I keep getting the message device uses too much power. Any ideas?

You can't directly from a Galaxy phone. But you can certainly upload the pictures from your Galaxy phone to your computer and then sync them to your iPad via iTunes.

Hello Tommythecat_nz,
I would check to ensure that the device is fully charged if you got the dead battery indicator. Let it charge for some time.

I downloaded pictures to iphoto yesterday of my sister's Bat mitzvah, all of them are there except 10 of them are just caution signs. How do I fix this without losing the photos?

I downloaded pictures to iphoto yesterday of my sister's Bat mitzvah, all of them are there except 10 of them are just caution signs. How do I fix this without losing the photos?

The warning triangle means, that iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the photos and cannot show them in the browser.
Rebuild the iPhoto library to reconnect the photos. What is your iPhoto version? If it is iPhoto '11 do the following:
Back up your iPhoto library.
Hold down the command and option/ alt keys while double-clicking the iPhoto icon to launch iPhoto.
Keep holding down the keys until you are seeing the FirstAid panel.
Select "rebuild database" from the panel.
Does that bring your photos back?
If not, download iPhoto Library Manager and use the rebuild function.
See Old Toad's post:
Re: iPhoto has crashed on a number of occasions, but on 2 occasions also seems to delete several events, including the one I'm editing. When I go to reimport the last event, it shows them as already there. But I can't find them.

If you mean Siri then that is only on the iPad 3, it is not on the iPad 2 in iOS 6 (possibly because the iPad 2 doesn't have the Audience chip which the iPad 3 does). If there are other things that you think are missing (YouTube has been removed, and Passbooks is iPhone and iPod Touch only) ?

My ipad won't start up. I downloaded iTunes on my pc while my iPad was charging - could this have caused the problem? I don't want to restore to factory settings and lose data. Any ideas or solutions? Thanks, Linda

FYI, your iPad will charge much faster if you plug it directly into an electrical outlet.
When doing the reset, as Jackkcc suggests, make sure you let go of both buttons fairly promptly after the apple image appears, then wait another 10 seconds or so for the iPad to start up. Note that a reset does not alter any data or settings.

Wil ipad air 4G work in the Netherlands on Vodadone network? (A1475)

Wil ipad air 4G work in the Netherlands on Vodadone network? (A1475)
i mean on their 4G network?

May I ask which iPhone you use and which carrier you use whilst visiting the uk.as some still don't have 4g in many areas
I have an iPhone 5 on Verizon (CDMA). I am not entirely sure which carrier I use while in Europe. A friend gets the SIM and sends the SIM to me and it is GSM. The SIM slot on my phone is unlocked for GSM as are all Verizon phones with a SIM slot. When I leave the US
I remove my Verizon SIM (required for LTE/4G) and install the European SIM. The day I travel my friend activates the SIM and I have phone service as soon as I land. The data is limited to 3G or less. Not a real problem as anywhere I go I can generally get WIFI. I just use the data when I am traveling on the train to get schedules and platform information.
Newer models of the phones may support the LTE/4G bands in Europe so that may no longer be an issue. It could also be the provider my friend uses has limited or no LTE/4G service.
You need to carefully consider the warranty issue. If you buy the phone in the US you will have no warranty in Europe. That may be a very real and significant hassle if you have problems with the phone.
I suspect the phones cost more in Europe because of VAT and import duties. We host exchange students from Europe and they generally buy an iPhone when they are living here. I tell them to leave the box and any packing here so that when they go through customs they will not be dinged for duties and if asked where they got the phone just say they brought it with them. Although customs figures almost everyone has a phone and will not be at all concerned about a phone that is not in a box.

Since downloading iOS 8 on my iPad 2 it has stopped working and will not connect to iTunes

Since downloading iOS 8 on my iPad 2 it has stopped working and will not connect to iTunes to do a restore. I have tried to do a reset using the sleep button and home key and all I get is a white band across the screen and then it boots into the main system but it is just a series of white lines going across the screen, how can I do a restore on this?

Hey dbwithers,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPad after attempting to update to iOS 8. To isolate these issues, let’s try placing your iPad in recovery mode and attempting a restore with iTunes:

HT1766 Why does my pc say that there is no drivers for my new Ipad Air. I did a backup this night from the two week old Ipad Air that I smashed the front?

Why does my pc say that there is no drivers for my new Ipad Air. I did a backup this night from the two week old Ipad Air that I smashed the front?

Drivers are iOS specific....meaning if your old one had iOS 7.0.6 and your new one 7.1 then it needs different drivers.
Is your iTunes up do date? if not, then updating it may help.
You can also try using a different usb cord and port to see if that triggers the driver download.
or, if that doesn't work, try going into your control panel, add/remove programs. Look for 'apple mobile device service' and uninstall that. THen plug your iPad in and it should reinstall.
If that doesn't work, go back into the control panel but uninstall iTunes, and apple mobile device service and apple application support, then redownload and reinstall iTunes and see if that gets your drivers fixed.
Another way to do that is go right click on 'my computer' 'properties' and go to 'device manager'
plug your iPad in and do you see it show up in the list? YOu may need to click some of those little plus signs to open up the lists. If you see your iPad, right click on the name and you should see an option to update the driver.

Since the latest IOS update, my new iPad Air is freezing and glitching badly. Typing is delayed.

iPad running slow? How to speed up a slow iPad
http://appletoolbox.com/2012/07/ipad-running-slow-how-to-speed-up-a-slow-ipad/
If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up
http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

TS3899 I recently discovered that I can no longer access websites pointed to within the content of an email message on my iPad Air by clicking on the highlighted HTML text or symbols. What should I do to correct this issue?

I recently discovered that I can no longer access websites pointed to within the content of an email message on my iPad Air by clicking on the highlighted HTML text or symbols. What have I done to create, and what should I now do to correct, this issue?

Or you could include a width to your body style:
body {
background-image: url(Logo/sky1.jpg);
background-position: center center;
background-attachment: fixed;
width: 75%;}
It might work or not depending on your other color scheme.
