If I purchase an iPad "cellular" in Japan will I be able to use a data plan in the US upon returning?

I am currently in Japan for the next year. If I purchase an iPad and sign up for a data plan will I be able to use it in the United States when I return? By that I mean, will I be able to sign up for a data plan in the US with Verizon, AT&T?

should find most of what you are looking for. I have set the second shortcut to the link to Area coverage, need the same for your area with the verizon link. The driver chip sets are not interchangeable so get the model that will reflect the level of service you are looking for, suitable for your US location.
you should also look up references to AT and T and Verizon's use of shared infrastructure resources, one offers more than the other in terms of roaming.

My macbook came with snow leopard, if I upgrade to Lion will I be able to use my restore disks in the future and if I do use my disks that brings me back to snow leopard, Will itunes remember I purchased Lion or will I have to purchase a second time ?

At this point, you can no longer download Lion (10.7) from the App Store, only Mountain Lion (10.8) - make sure all your applications are fully compatible if you decide to upgrade.
Yes, you can restore 10.6 using your restore disc should you wish to - and the App Store (not ITunes) will have a record of all your purchases, since it's linked to your AppleId.

Using same data plan on the New iPad?

I have an original iPad with ATT with the unlimted data plan. If I get the "New iPad" will I still be able to keep the unlimited plan since the New iPad uses 4G.
thx
lann

When the original iPad came out ATT did offer unlimited data for $30/month. Unfortunately the offer didn't last more than a few months if I recall.

I want to buy an iPad for my children for Christmas. Will they be able to play games and get on the Internet with this? Also, will they automatically be able to get on the Internet or will I have to purchase some kind of package?

I want to buy an iPad for my children for Christmas. Will they be able to play games and get on the Internet with this? Also, will they automatically be able to get on the Internet or will I have to purchase some kind of package?

Yes, they can play games - there are hundreds if not thousands of games available in the iTunes Store. Beware of the "free" games; many are free for the base game but charge for things like additional levels, "coins" etc. and those paid add-ons can add up quickly, to dozens or even in some cases hundreds of dollars. I'd strongly suggest you set up restrictions on the iPad to prevent your children from making unauthorized purchases. See:
http://ipod.about.com/od/iphonehowtos/ht/Using-Iphone-Content-Restrictions.htm
You will need an Internet provider of some sort; Apple is not a provider and so the iPad does not include a data service. You can either use a home Internet connection with a WiFi access point (aka "router") or you can get an iPad with WiFi+Cellular and sign up for a data plan with a cell carrier. WiFi through a home Internet service will probably be cheaper.

TS1398 I have just purchased an iPad mini and it will not join my wifi. It detects my wifi network but will not join. I have a Mac, 2 iPhones and an iPad 4 and all work perfectly. The new iPad mini just won't behave. Any ideas?

I have purchased an iPad mini and it will not join my wifi network. Any ideas?

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

Yes, but you will need a valid mailing address in the US as well as a US payment method, either a US credit card or a US-issued iTunes card, to purchase. And you probably won't be able to update any such apps once you get back to Libya since you're not allowed to use the US iTunes Store from outside of its country.

No, the iWork apps are only available for the Mac. There are separate versions for iOS devices (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) that are purchased from the iTunes Store. If you have an iCloud.com account there is iWork for iCloud that runs in a web browser, including web browsers on a PC. It is currently in beta & may not be available to all iCloud users yet.

Will I be able to use my 3g ipad 2 while I am abroad?

I am studying in Italy this coming fall. I have recently bought an ipad 2 with 3g and wifi. I want to use it to facetime while i am abroad. Is this possible? also will i be able to use the maps app?

I just wanted to mention that if you do by chance have the verizon CDMA model, you could work around by purchasing a mobile wifi hotspot device and carrying that around with you in your bag/pocket. The mobile hotspot device would work off the 3G network in Italy and your iPad would work off the wifi hotspot you create
I am abroad at the moment in a country where data is expensive so I have a mobile hot spot device that is half the size of my iphone and I can connect up to 5 devices to it. It cost about $150 USD. I put a local 3G sim in it and purchased a local unlimited data plan and then use it with my iPhone, MacBook and iPad.
When I travel to the UK, I just get a pay as you go iPad data plan/sim card directly in the iPad usually but next week I'm going and I will try to see what they have for my mobile hotspot device (mifi) as I am enjoying managing all of my data on one bill/cost!
Having said all this...I guess the better solution would be just to use your 3G phone (android or iphone) to create the hotspot but for whatever reason I couldn't manage that so I just bought the device I have...I am sure someone else techie would be able to elaborate on that suggestion...

1) I have multiple accounts at the iTunes store and none are now associated with my purchases...I think because passwords have been associated with various id’s and I can’t log in and access those purchases. I want to get back to being able to use one id and password and be able to access those purchases.
2) When I upgraded my iPhone 3gs, to the latest version 5.0.1 (9A405), is when I noticed that i couldn’t update my applications. There are two names/accounts on the phone and prior to the update there was just the one. I have tried entering every conceivable password that I have ever used and get the incorrect password error every time. The apps on the iPhone are apparently associated with several/different accounts. I just want to get everything back to the way it was. One id and one password with purchases associated with just one account that can be updated on my computer as well as my iPhone.

How do I add to my data plan on the iPad once I have run out of time and no longer have an internet connection?

How do I add to my data plan on the iPad once I have run out and no longer have an internet connection? I am working out of the country and got a message that I was running low,followed immediatly by a you're out message.

Should you not be asking your carrier? They are the people supplying your data plan.

How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.
As an example, html widget has white background on iPad, and black on mac. The same goes for interactive widget.
The MathType text inserted is inserted as a image, and will have the same color when in fullscreen as when not. So I need the textcolor to be the same in both views. Anyone know how to fix this?

We're still not communicating. This is why I wanted an example .iba.
Here's a re-creation of my own, going off what you described. You said "all html widgets and all gallery widgets" have this problem. So I inserted a blank HTML widget and a blank Gallery widget, and typed into both. Inserted a MathType equation into both. I don't see any difference when I preview it on my Mac compared to the preview on the iPad. I want to help, but I can't help if I can't duplicate the issue.
I've attached the screen shots and the .iba file [link to .iba file].
