Incorrect artwork on iPad 2 when using Homeshare

Since upgrading to iTunes 10.5.0.142 and IOS 5 - Random Artwork for both TV Shows and Movies when using Homeshare to stream my Library to my iPad2 shows incorrect images. As all of the files are sorted in alphabetical order it is obvious which ones are wrong. Tapping on an incorrect image to find out what the correct file should be takes you to the play Screen, where the image suddenly changes to the correct one! However when you tap "Back" and return to the list of Movies the image returns to the incorrect one.
I have 1,053 movies in my Library, and I would guess that 1 in 15 now show an incorrect image in the "Shared" fuction for video streaming. The problem is there for TV Shows, but worse, as the individual episode thumbnails remain incorrect at all times.
See YouTube link below for example of the issue.

Anyone else having the same issue, or now of a fix?

The problem seems to be happening when ever you add any Movie or TV Show to your iTunes Library, and after weeks of trying various conetations, I think I have found a temporary solution to the problem, (Until Apple recognise it as so, and fix it).
On the iPad - Ensure the 'Video App' is fully closed (Double Click the HOME button and 'Force Close' the 'Video App' if it is open).
Then under the main 'Settings' Icon, select 'Video' from the list
Remove your Homeshare 'Apple ID' and 'Password'
Exit Settings
Re-open the 'Video App' once (You will see that the Sharing facility is no longer available)
Now close the 'Video App'.
Then ensure the' Video App' is fully closed (Double Click the HOME button and 'Force Close' the 'Video App' via visible 'Video' icon).
Go back to the main 'Settings' Icon, and select 'Video' from the list
Re-Enter your Homeshare 'Apple ID' and 'Password'
Exit Settings
Open the 'Video App' and select 'Shared'
The artwork should then re-load correctly
This process seems to work for me!
Hope that helps
Regards

Yes, unless the developer of the app specifically prohibits it.The Apple Video app works fine.

IPad "misbehaves" when used with a MultiSIM - picks up/rejects phone calls

Hello Cupertino,
iPad 3G misbehaves when used e.g. with a MultiSIM card of T-Mobile Germany.
It is said to pick up phone calls and actively rejects them. Thus the "Main" Mobile Phone (e.g. the iPhone) will ring ONCE then the iPad will pick up and reject the call. (On T-Mobile Network, one cannot disallow phone calls for a specific MultiSIM, all Phones of the same number will ring simultaneously).
This is a really serious and embarassing bug, please fix it with next OS version.
Cheers,
Thomas

No! this is a "bug", because the ipad is connecting via the sim-card in an incorrect way. From day one on Apple always is pressing the fact that the iPad is a "data"-device ONLY and NOT a "phone"-device.
There is no intention of Apple to make the ipad do anything else as "connecting to the internet". That's why there is no textmessage app, no voicemail, no phonestuff on the the ipad. That's perfectly ok! But considering this the iPad misbehaves when connecting to a gprs/umts network because it is connecting showing itself as a PHONE AND DataDevice instead of DATA-ONLY.
THAT IS WRONG, because this automatically triggers the telcom provider to sent voice and messaging connections to this device.
Proof: On a jailbroken iPad it is possible to simply switch the device to the correct CGCLASS="CP" setting. With this setting the iPad only connects as a datadevice (e.g. like a usb-umts-stick) and doesn't answer any incoming non-data-connections.
BUT: I don't want a jailbreak! If want a correct working iPad.
And last but not least: the multi-sim-option (meaning more simcards under the same number) is totaly legitimate and is part of the usagespecs for telecom-networks. It is working perfectly well if (yeah, IF) every device connecting to the network identifies itself correctly with its capabilities.
If a device identifies itself as a phone and it actually isn't, then this device has a serious bug and is not correctly configured to be used in a mixed telcom network. Just because "normaly" everybody uses only one simcard, it is no reason NOT to stick to specs.
This is just sloppy work when porting the iPhone OS to the iPad. Simply forgotten! No big deal, but fix it, because Apple is "killing" a whole generation of german t-mobile users (all iphone contracts older than ~12 months can use their dataplan with free multisimcards from t-mobile on different devices!).

Incorrect password on ipad mini when trying to con...

Can anyone help, just had the BTHub 4 installed and my laptop, daughter's ipad and iphone all have connected with no problems. However my ipad mini just returns 'incorrect password' and won't connect.
I have tried resetting the hub, I have reset Network Settings on the ipad and all other various combinations...but am getting nowhere.
Any ideas please?
Thanks in advance

When i tried with the mini i had a problem but noticed that the mini made the first letter a block capital but the password was actually lower case. When i changed to lower case connected right away

Is there a way to force "desktop view" on my iPad 1 when using Safari?

Google, in their control frenzy, has now changed iGoogle to default to Tablet view on iPads. Why??? Here is one solution but it does not use Safari:
Question:
Is there a secret to getting the old igoogle homepage back, or is it gone for good on the iPad 2? I still have the homepage on my Mac, so the problem is just with the iPad. Any help anybody can give to get the home page back would be greatly appreciated.
Answer:This issue is with the Tablet view. You can switch to Classic view at the bottom, but as soon as you type anything in the url bar you get reverted to Tablet. I have the Atomic Browser installed on my iPad and have set it to identify itself as a desktop. iGoogle loads fine on that. I am not aware of any such setting for Safari on the iPad.
Google fails to understand that we do not need sub featured pages for our tablets. Tablets work fine with the desktop versions. They have probably concluded that iGoogle pages are too busy for tablets and so have disabled it. Tablet search has been significantly degraded by Goggle with elimination of the pinch and zoom and cached features. It should be possible to make a sticky setting change to Classic view on tablets. Most other settings stick, but not the Classic view. I dont think Google get it anymore.
Is there a way to force Safari ,on an iPad, to do this?

The website may alter its page display based on the browser ID that is transmitted to the site from your browser. Some browsers on the iPad like iCab allow you change the browser ID to something desktop-oriented. Safari does not provide this capability.

ITunes won't sync all photos across from iPhoto to my iPad, either when using 'all photos' or manually selecting the events. All the rest sync normally

Can anyone suggest a workround or reason why I can't sync a batch of about 300 photos in 5 events on consecutive days across from iPhoto 09 to my iPad 2? All the rest (>1000 frames mainly before and some after) go over, including some shot on the same digital camera (before and after). I've tried using 'all photos' and also manually selecting the events individually, they won't go. An album containing some of these photos goes across without them included, and converting the whole album on iPhoto to a movie and then dropping that into my videos won't go either. I've cleared the sync history as advised by the support line, and all software is updated. Loads of room on the iPad

Started having the same issue with my iPad 2 just this week. Tried deleting the iPod Photo Cache, disabling then re-enabling photo sync through iTunes, but keep getting the error: "Some of your photos, including the photo “XXX.jpg”, were not copied to the iPad “XXX” because they cannot be displayed on your iPad." This is with iOS 4.3.5, iTunes 10.4, and Mac OS 10.7 Lion.
Interestingly enough, I have no issues syncing the same exact set of photos to my iPhone 4 (also running 4.3.5). This seems to be an iPad-only issue.

HT4623 ipad stuck when using apple tv

After connecting my Ipad to Apple tv I now find the Ipad appears to be still connected to Itunes,and locked,I am now having to completley reset the Ipad which will take about three hours,I now have no confidence in usimg my Ipad with apple TV in the future,is this a one off or have other users found the same problem?

You should have just hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo. I don't think you should restore your iPad.

How can I sync photos to my iPad 2 when using windows vista ?

I have tried everything. Followed the steps on the iPad manual, deleted the old folder and created a new one but it doesnt help. Did anyone else face the same problem ? Were you able to fix it ?

If you mean you want to add photos to your iPad, they must be the right format, so the iPad can read the file. Search for a converer online.

Just want to be able to listen to iTunes on my iPad "wirelessly"

Yay!
I discovered this lovely little forum entry that solved my problem!
(Remember this is for Windows, I'm not sure if the same will work for Mac)
This is what you do:
1: Have iTunes up and plug in your iPod.
2: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons down until the iPod shuts down.
3: When the screen is blank, release the Sleep/Wake and just hold the Home button down for about 15 seconds.
4: After then, iTunes will recognize an I iPod in Recovery Mode.
5: That's when iTunes will ask you to Update/Restore your iPod.
I'm pretty sure those are the steps.
(If anything is wrong, can someone fix it, please?)
But that really does work.
The writer said that his iPod was "stuck on the apple screen, and not going anywhere after that."
That was my issue, so hopefully this will work for you!

How to solve power error when using USB camera adapter in your camera

Hello Everyone,
First of all I wanna say reducing the output of the USB camera adapter from 100mA to 20mA just to save battery life is by far the most incredible adjustment in the history of @)#*$#%*($#!
I know most of us bought the USB Camera adapter so we can use it as a USB adapter for the Camera (saves us from taking the memory card on and off the camera) but sadly the "Ginues Apple" reduced it to 20mA which decreases the range of cameras and flash drives that will work with it. I use Gopro Hero 3+ black and everytime I plug it with the adapter to my ipad I keep on seeing this @#@$#@ power error. I didn't want to waste the expensive adapter so I tried to look for a micro sd card reader but I don't think 20mA readers still exist.
Now to solve this problem is very simple add a power source to help that 20mA up, most of the my friends bought a powered port hub but it's not my type because it's bulky, needs an outlet and not portable.
So I found a better solution on how you can add a power source and still be portable, the answer is power bank or portable charger.
Things you need:
Camera
USB camera adapter (Ginues Apple product)
Power bank (I'm using 8,400 mAh)
Dual USB Male to 5 Pin Mini USB Y Cable
Ipad
Procedure:
Camera --- 5 Pin Mini USB ------------------ USB camera adapter ---------- Ipad
'---------- Power Bank
Attach you camera to the 5 pin mini usb then the USB1 male to the female apple's USB camera adapter then to the Ipad. = this will show the power error.
Then attach the USB2 to the power bank/portable charger to power it up.
your welcome

After the restore did the phone work properly for a while? Say, a day or so?
If so it is possible you have an app that doesn't let go of memory properly. I reboot my iPhone ( hold sleep/wake and hole till you see the apple logo) every few days. This resets the memory. The iPhone OS has doesn't seem to mange memory very well yet. So a reboot will help with that. I have had my phone almost slow to a stop before I started rebooting. Always reboot after installing a new app. Also do you close all pages in Safari when you are done? This is a good practice. Safari will run in the background and use processor time and drain your battery quicker. Create a new blank page then close all others when you are done browsing for a while. I have also found that certain web site that have animated images like weather maps will turn the phone into molasses. As soon as i close that page it gets faster.
If all of the above have no effect then as Tamara said it is time for a trip to the Genius bar.
Good luck

Why is "Choose File" greyed out when using Safari on an iPad?

I'm an Apple newbie, being in the PC World for a long time and have just got an iPad.
I use a number of websites which I upload content to by way of word docs, pdfs, presentations etc. Usually Safari on a PC or MAC has a "choose file" button where the file is selected for upload, however on my iPad this is greyed out...?
I have both transferred docs and presentations to the iPad via iTunes and created them on the iPad using Pages and Keynote but still the button is greyed out.
I hope it is something I am doing wrong or an incorrect setting rather than a "feature" of iPads.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Can you give an example? The app GoodReader has a function where you enter a URL and it will download the item. A lot of times in safari when you touch a download it will give you an option to copy the address. That copies it to the clipboard when you can then paste it in the GoodReader app.
