International Data for iPad 2

I want to buy an iPad 2 with 3G on the Verizon network.  However, I will be using it internationally for some parts of the year. I need to know if I will be able to get an international plan for the iPad, and how this works with it being a pre-paid device. I know that the iPad works on the CDMA network, and this will limit me when it comes to international partners that the iPad will  work on. I've tried to find international coverage maps showing where Verizon has partners, but have had no luck. I'll be using the device in Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada, as well as France. Where can I find more information about what the plans cost, how I sign up for one, and where the device will work ? I really need UMTS speeds when traveling as well, as this will be my primary internet connection. 
Thank you for your time, and all help is appreciated ! 

Hi rct123,
I appreciate you interest in our International Services.  You are correct the iPad 2 operates on CDMA technology.  The iPad2 will work in  Canada because it's a CDMA country.  However, France in A GSM country and the iPad will not work with our roaming partners. I have included a link which details the Canada Global Data Plan.  Please let me know if you have any additional questions.  You can PM me your number if you would like to add to the Global Plan.
Thank you for your contribution to our community forums,

  • Goodbye unlimited data for IPad 3G customers.  Welcome to AT&T after June 7

    http://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=17991&cdvn=news&newsarticleid=30854&mapcod e=financial%7CWireless
    For new iPad customers, the $25 per month 2 GB plan will replace the existing $29.99 unlimited plan. iPad customers will continue to pre-pay for their wireless data plan and no contract is required. Existing iPad customers who have the $29.99 per month unlimited plan can keep that plan or switch to the new $25 per month plan with 2 GB of data.
    http://www.macrumors.com/
    "AT&T also announced that they have changed the iPad 3G data plan for new customers after June 7th.
    At present, AT&T offers a no-contract $29.99/month unlimited data plan specifically for iPad owners. If you activate your data plan before June 7th, you can still participate in this plan. After June 7th, however, AT&T will be replacing that plan with a $25/month 2GB limited plan. From the press release:
    For new iPad customers, the $25 per month 2 GB plan will replace the existing $29.99 unlimited plan. iPad customers will continue to pre-pay for their wireless data plan and no contract is required. Existing iPad customers who have the $29.99 per month unlimited plan can keep that plan or switch to the new $25 per month plan with 2 GB of data.
    So, if this is an issue for you, you still have time to be grandfathered into the unlimited data plan. Existing iPad customers can look at their current data usage via their iPad settings."

    Got this off of cnet.com:
    http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-20006534-1.html
    “But nobody will be forced to switch. If users are happy with their current plan then they can keep it, which we expect many to do. In fact, AT&T tells us, *"[Users] are not required to switch to the new plans if they renew their contract or switch to another smartphone.* However, if they switch to one of the new plans, they will not be able to go back to their old unlimited plan." The only downside is that legacy iPhone plans won't get tethering, so there are some things to consider for some.”
    Hopefully that will remain the case. I have unlimited on both my iPhone and iPad and like the freedom of watching as many videos and surfing the net as much as I want. On TUAW the article was saying it was likely that AT&T would force those "grandfathered" into changing to a new data plan when they renewed. The above article pretty much says that AT&T is claiming that whether we renew or switch to another smartphone and don't switch data plans that we should be ok.
    I'll keep my fingers crossed!

  • Estimated delivery dates for iPad 4 with wifi and cellular UK

    I have ordered the new iPad 32gb With wifi and cellular data and on my account it just says late November. Is there any way to find out a more specific date as I am going away and want to take it with me?? Would I have to ring Apple and ask?

    No one here will know
    I doubt ringing will change anything as Apple
    will update orders as soon as they can see supply to apply to the orders
    You will find the number for UK on the  order document

  • International Warranty for iPad

    I live in India and I am planning to buy an iPad from US.  So can I use it in India without any problem and more essentially can I claim warranty and repairs in India for the same ?

    If purchased in the US the warranty will only be honored in the US, not in India. You will not get warranty service in India.

  • Why won't verizon sell me an international data plan for my new iPad?

    Why won't verizon sell me an international data plan for my new iPad?

    Thanks for your response Meg. Verizon is definitely not customer friendly.  I do have the monthly prepaid domestic data service that I subscribed to from my iPad when I bought it a few months ago.  They didn't advise me of any other available plans at the time.  You are correct that they are now saying that in order to get an international plan I need to cancel my current monthly plan through one Verizon department (and abandon any remaining data mb) and then subscribe to a contract plan (handled by a different verizon department).  But here's the catch: in order to get international service I need to be a contract customer for six months (which doesn't help me as I am going to Europe next week).  Of course, if I had bought an ATT iPad I wouldn't be shut out like this since their monthly international plans are readily available through the iPad at any time.  I feel that Apple and Verizon should not have touted the new Verizon iPad as comparable to ATT's internationally (which they did) without fully disclosing the hoops one has to jump through.  

  • No international data plan for one year-???

    Here is the background.  I moved over to Verizon about 4 months ago from Alltel.  I did this because I wanted to be able to have a blackberry with international BBm'ing.  I did not go with ATT because there coverage was spotty in my area.  Since the move, I would say my Alltel coverage was 3x better then the cuurent verizon in my house even with the network extender ( BB don't work well with network extender compare to droids, according to the VZW reps).  I did not stay with Alltel because they did not have the storm2.  I needed 6 lines and a mifi and the local verizon rep told me no problem that they could do one primary line and 5 additonal line plus the mifi but after I signed up they realized that I maxed out at 5 lines on one account and they made me make my 6th line a primary line and then added the mifi to the 2nd account.  More costs per month.  Within a month of having my VZW account, one of my kid went to China and we were able to add the international data plan for her trip so she could BBM us.  No problems.
    Here is the problem.  I am going abroad in 2 days and would like to put the international data plan on 2 phones for the trip.  The rep says he cannot do becaue the polciies have changed with the "xerox" buyout and they won't let me do it for the following reasons.
    1.  I have not had my phones for more than one year even though I paid a deposit on them
    2. I have 7 lines on one account- not true I have one account with 1 primary line and 4 additional lines and I have another account with one primary line and the mifi account.  they are all billed on the same statement.  If they are all "one account" then VZW owes me a refund on the 2nd account's primary line as they cannot have it both ways. 
     We came to verizon for the purpose of BBM’ing when going international and now we cannot use it.  I am paying over $500.00 a month and have not been late on any payments, paid a deposit on the phones, am paying for 2 primary lines and did this a few weeks ago for my daughter and now I cannot add the international option again for a week of vacation abroad?  This is really upsetting and pretty much the last straw if it does not get resolved before this trip.  I should have stayed at Alltel or went to ATT and got an I phone because this is no better.    The rep I talked too was bedeviled by this policy and went two levels up in supervisors and was denied.  They are supposed to call me to resolve this issue tonight or in the morning. 
    {word filter avoidance}

    Update:
    I got a call from my local rep at the store where I bought all the phones.  She said they called corporate and all blocks on my international data plan have been removed?  I will stop by this afternoon and confirm that it has all been done???? I still cannot believe how many hoops I will have had to jump through to get this done as it was done 2 months ago, if it actually gets done.
    If it does not get done then i will be requesting to be let out of my contract for breach of contract on Verizon's part as it was never told to me that I could not have international service for one year after signing up and we were able to do it within a month of signing up initially.  Will post updates

    Calendar Tile on Windows 8.1 displaying incorrect date for icloud calendar but date icon displays correct date on iPhone 5 and iPad Air.  Date on Windows 8.1 is correct.  Thank you.

    Try doing  a reset on your phone. Sounds like your carrier's time set is not getting through to your device. If the reset doesn't do it, then go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. That should do it.

  • Can I use a portable hard drive for ipad data storage?

    Can I use a portable hard drive for ipad data storage?  I want an iPad mini, but don't want to get a large one (memorywise) along with cellular capability.  I remember that the old iPads coiuld not communicate via their iPhone connector to transfer data.  So can I do that iwth the newest iPad mini via the lightning connector somehow?  Thanks, Tom

    No. But you can with Seagate's wireless GoDrive.

  • Best practice for exposing internal data to external world?

    Currently we have our Internet server sitting in our corporate DMZ taking website and web service requests from the outside world.  Class libraries with compiled connection strings exist on that server.  That server then has a connection through
    the firewall to the database server.  I'm told that this is no longer the secure/recommended best practice.
    I'm told to consider having that Internet server make requests of not the database server, but rather a layer in between (application server, intranet server, whatever) that has those same Web UI methods exposed.. and then THAT server (being inside the firewall)
    connects to the database server.
    Is this the current recommended best practice to have external users interact with internal data?  It seems like lots of hoops -- outside person app queries Web UI methods on Internet server which in-turn queries same method (duplicated) on Intranet
    server which then talks to the database.
    I'm just trying to determine the simples practice, but also what is appropriately secure for our ASP.NET applications and services.
    Thanks.

    IMO this has little to do with SOA and all about DMZs. What you're are trying to stop is the same comm protocol accessing the database as accessed the web site. As long as you fulfil that then great. WCF can help here because it helps with configuring
    the transport of calls. Another mechanism is to use identities but IMO it's easier to use firewalls and transports.

  • Automatic date update in Pages for iPad

    I want the date (date feild?) in a Pages for iPad letter template to update automatically (using the system date, like other word process application) but cannot see how to do this. This automatic date update appears to work in the Pages for iPad templates examples. i.e open a letter template and the date field shows the correct date, do the same with the same template 24 hours later and the date is shown correctly accordingly. I believe feature is achieved in the Mac version of Pages by setting up a date field. I would like to do the same with Pages iPad. Any ideas how this can be achieved? 

    We cannot speculate about future Apple products. We know no more about this than you do at this time.
    You can suggest it to Apple at Apple Feedback.

  • Dates in numbers for iPad 2

    I have see many complaints about Numbers for IPad not being able to handle dates very well, especially when in porting an Excel sheet. Is this a problem ?
    I have many Excel sheets that require dates, will I be able to use them ?
    Thanks

    Your friend was close, but forgot one thing. If you want it to be blank if either cell is MT, then you need an OR as well o test if either one or the other is blank...
    =IF(OR(ISBLANK(a1),ISBLANK(b1)),"",a1xb1)
    The isblank can also be represetned by ="" in many cases, usually accompanied with a trim to make sure there are no spaces were entered...
    =IF(OR(TRIM(a1)="",TRIM(b1)="")),"",a1xb1)

  • Can I choose a different backup date / sync date for my iPad?

    I attempted to sync my iPad this morning with my computer. During the sync process, I received a message that iTunes was no longer available. I disconnected my iPad. When I attempted to turn it on, it would not power on. All I could see was the picture of the iTunes logo and a USB cord. I reconnected my iPad to the computer. My only option after that was to restore my iPad to factory settings. The message I received was that my computer had no backup data for my iPad. I restored to factory settings. Now, I have no files, photos, games, etc on my iPad. Is ther a way to resync my iPad with iTunes using a previous date?

    My iPad did the same thing. I accendently disconnected it while it was updating. Now it won't turn on and it tells me I have to restore it. I don't want to loose the pictures. Did you get an answer? 

  • Dear Apple: Can't recover data from iPad / no exploit for A5 bootrom

    Dear Apple,
    Looks like I'm not the only one who has had a failed upgrade to 6.1.3. Now my mother's iPad 2 is in recovery mode with 1000+ pictures lost in LaLaLand.
    No recent backup, no iCloud.
    I've done lots of research on how I can recover the data and the only possible way seems to be accessing the Ramdisk via SSH.
    But there is no bootrom exploit for A5 devices, so it won't work.
    Thanks Apple, I've lost photos of our family dog that passed this year, as well as photos from my grandmother's memorial service from this year.
    I hope an Apple employee see's this...
    Your process for upgrading iOS versions should be less prone to errors or failures. Required syncs or backups before upgrades should be required.
    I could send my iPad to the main data recovery service Apple has partnered with... but I don't have $400 - $1200 to spend.
    But even if I did, I would assume that only Apple has the power to access the data that is now in a digital vault, protected by their millions of dollars of revenue.
    How can a top-leader in the consumer electronics industry let down so many of their loyal customers? Just google "recover data on iPad" or iPhone and you'll see that 1000's of people across the globe are having the same issue with iOS upgrades.
    Please Apple, at least create a service to allow users to send in devices for data recovery. Only you have the power to "hack" into our devices.
    Sincerly,
    Forever lost memories?

    Apple aren't here. This is a user to user forum.
    You've lost your data because, as you said: "No recent backup, no iCloud." - that's your fault, no-one else's.
    Backing up is necessary regardless of whether you are upgrading or not. Your iPad could've been stolen or damaged and you'd've lost the data the same. Apple provides you with at least 3 ways of retaining copies of your photos - you chose not to use them.
    Call this a lesson learned in the consequences of not backing up as advised.
