In the back of the iPad 2 is the Apple Symbol in black plastic.  Does this have a function or is it just a symbol?

There is a similar symbol in dark plastic on the front of my iMac.  It is the remote control sensor cover.  On the top of my Mac Book Air.  In this one, it lights up when the computer is powered on.
I'm curious if the symbol on the back of iPad 2 has a function or is just there for looks. 

"The black Apple logo is still in the center of the back, and I assume the Wi-Fi antenna is still located behind it."

  • I spilled some pop on the back of my iPad. I cleaned it off and everything seems to be going good but when I play music it will either play with no sound or play then continue with no sound. What can I do to fix this (without being costly, it's a iPad 2)

    I spilled some pop on the back of my iPad. I cleaned it off and everything seems to be going good but when I play music it will either play with no sound or play then continue with no sound. What can I do to fix this (without being costly, it's a iPad 2) this happens with other music apps too. Please I need help!

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists. If it doesn't work, there isn;t much anyone here can do for you. It may be a physical problem with your speakers.

    Pretty sure it doesn’t say there is not enough room in iTunes library because it is not backed up to the iTunes library.
    What is the exact message?

    I backed up my ipad to the cloud as it had a broken screen so I swaped it out for a new one and now I cant restore because the new Ipad has IOS 6 and my back up is 6.1!  This is what I get for buying an Ipad twice in a week because of a broken screen? $500 the first buy and then another $299 plus tax for the swaped out one that I can't restore with my backup data.

    I assume that you will have to set up as new since it will not let you restore from the backup. Then after you set it up, you can restore from the iCloud backup. The backup should not disappear be use you are setting this device up as new. Your backup should still be in iCloud.
    However, after you activate the iPd and update the software, you will have to erase the device in order to restore from the Cloud backup, that is the only way to get to the iCloud backup.
    Copied from the article that linked you to this discussion ....
    Resolution
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS to be able to restore the backup.

  • I backed up my iPad to the computer, I don't know where my pictures are stored

    I backed up my iPad to the computer, I don't know where my pictures are stored

    Your camera roll photos - the pictures that you take with the iPad camera or saved from websites are stored in the iPad backup. You will not see them anywhere on your computer unless you import them to the PC from the iPad.
    You cannot see what is stored in the iPad backup on your PC. It doesn't work that way. This explains iTunes backups - what is backed up and where the backup file is stored on the computer. It may be a little different in Windows 8. now.

  • What can I apply to the back of my iPad to make it less slippery?

    I find the back of my iPad to be very slippery when I'm trying to hold it to read.  Is there something that I can apply to the back that will make it easier to grip?  I use an aluminum case with wi-fi keyboard if that helps.

  • HT1766 can i back up my ipad if the host computer has lost every thing?

    Can I back up my ipad if the host computer has lost its operating system and the was re-instald?

    Yes, this would be like syncing to a new computer. So, some precautions are required or you might lose what's currently on the iPad.
    iTunes will only let you sync to one library at a time, if you get this warning message, follow this:

  • Can I walk into an apple store and get my name engraved on the back of my ipad?

    II'm using my ipad for school and I don't want it stolen. Is there anyway I could go to an apple shop and get my name engraved on the back of my ipad for a decent sum of money? I live in Ireland and bought the ipad in PC world

    Having it engraved wont' stop it from being stolen. All it might do is make it easier to identify if it is.
    The best way to  work towards preventing theft is to be smart with your device. Don't ever leave it laying anywhere unattended....you're in the library, need to take a bathroom break, don't leave it on the table, put it in it's case/bag and take it with you or leave it in the custody of a friend.
    Be aware that it is a target for thieves and treat it accordingly. Treat it like you'd treat your purse or wallet.

  • My iPad would not complete the back up to iCloud.  The solution re: resetting my iPad did not work.  Are there any other ideas?

    My iPad would not complete the back up to iCloud.  The suggestion re: resetting the iPad did not work.  Are there any other ideas?

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. 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.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    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
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • I downloaded ios 5 after backing up my ipad on the computer. Now there are no apps or movies on my ipad. They are on the computer in itunes but sync and restore do not put them back on the ipad. ideas?

    I downloaded ios 5 after backing up my ipad on the computer. Now there are no apps or movies on my ipad. They are on the computer in itunes but sync and restore do not put them back on the ipad. ideas?

    iOS 7 devices need iTunes 11.1 or newer to sync.  Depending upon your computer and the OS it is running, you may not be able to upgrade to iTunes 11.1 based on the requirements for iTunes 11.1.  What computer and OS are you running your iTunes on?  From the iTunes download pages I see the requiorements are:
    Macintosh System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core processor
    OS X version 10.6.8 or later
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
    Windows System Requirements
    PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store

  • TS3992 If I back up pictures from the camera roll on my iPad to iCloud and then delete the pictures off my iPad will the next back up to iCloud erase those picutres from iCloud?

    If I back up pictures from the camera roll on my iPad to iCloud and then delete the pictures off my iPad will the next back up to iCloud erase those picutres from iCloud? or will all pictures remain in iCloud?

    They will be erased.  The backup only includes the data (and photos) on the iPad at the time of the backup.  To keep your photos permanently, import them to your computer as explained here before deleting them: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

    Yes, however you would be much better backing it up to iTunes to do this rather than iCloud.

    Hi there,
    Wondering if you might know?  I don't have enough space to update the new software on iPad.  So my facetime isn't working anymore, this is prob why. Seems I have to delete like all the games/apps we have to do so.  Will I lose the progress data/levels in the games? But how do I back up the games data?
    Please help.  Scared to delete them to update and then not have the space to restore them and if I get them again will the levels/progress be gone?
    Thanks Rachel

    Connect your device to iTunes and do the update through iTunes. Using a computer takes much less space on your device than doing the update on your device.
