IPad 2 vs. iPad Mini

Why does the iPad 2 not have Siri when the iPad mini does, and they both have a A5 chip

It takes more than an A5 chip to support Siri.

    --break--
    So we are entirely new to Apple products. I'm an IT guy, but have always been a windows user.
    So the Ipad with Retina Display is to be mine (and will use it at work for notes, organization, etc)
    The MINI is for the wife.
    But, are we allowed and can we.. buy an app and share that app between both devices? IE. Can I buy a copy of Angry Birds for the House and both Ipad's use that single purchase? and if so, can we still run the Ipads seperate other than to share the apps purchased. IE my facebook and email set up on mine and hers on her ipad mini?
    When I finally find a note taking app I like, can I share it on her ipad, without her having all my work files, etc?
    Thanks for helping out the apple noob. Hoping for a great experience, and anticipate droping $100 in apps the first day.. just don't want to do that twice. If this is against the usage policy, thats unfortunate but good to know. (I mean we can share stuff on PC as long as its in the same household)
    thanks again (explanations or links are fine)

    There are a number of Apple services: iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud, Game center, Find My iPad, etc.
    Now, to share apps, music and books you need to have the same Apple ID:
    iPad's Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID > Your purchasing Apple ID.
    For the other service, your wife should have her own Apple ID.
    All she needs is a valid e-mail address, apply Apple ID below:

  • Ipad and ipad mini on same account won't facetime

    Ipad and ipad mini on same account won't facetime.  Already added different e-mail account but to no avail.

    After you added the new email address, did you select it in Settings>FaceTime>you can be reached by FaceTime at? You have to select that email address and unselect any other email address or phone number in there that is currently being used.

  • Imac 10.7.5 doesn't recognize iPod touch 32gb 5th gen, iPad and iPad mini all work ok

    imac 10.7.5 doesn't recognize iPod touch 32gb 5th gen, iPad and iPad mini all work ok.
    Itunes 11.3
    7.1.2 iPod touch 32gb, V/ 5th generation
    I just don't get it. I got the iPod from a friend which didn't use it at all. If I connect my iPad or iPad mini to my mac, they all get connected well and iTunes sees them too. iPod touch not for some reason
    The iPod touch is completely new, no missing contacts etc. It works on other macs as well. Only my iMac doesn't see the iPod Touch. Maybe I can repost this problem in The IMAC section in stead of the iPod Touch, since I think its a iMac problem from now on...
    please help!

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My airport time capsule will no longer allow our iPhones or vizio smart tvs to connect to it, though my iPad air mac mini and mac air connect fine. Why is this? does a recent software update have anything to do with it?

    What model is your TC? What is the firmware?
    I recommend you do a factory reset and use short names.. not apple recommended names.
    Short.. 2-20 characters .. less than 10 even better.
    No spaces.
    Pure alphanumeric.
    Set fixed channels for 2.4ghz wireless.. test with 11, 6, 1 at least.
    That often helps.. if not and is old, ie Gen1-4 go back to 7.6.1 firmware which is far more solid.

  • I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts.  His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine.  I haven't received mail since Saturday and as we use the email for business I desperately need it.

    I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts.  His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine.  I haven't received mail since Saturday. We use the email for business I desperately need it and I don't have a laptop anymore as it is broken.   In my wisdom I desired to buy an ipad instead,  what a mistake.

    The iPad will support multiple Gmail accounts, but of course you have to set each one up individually.  Did you set up both accounts?  Go into Settings/ Mail, Contacts, Calendars to confirm both accounts exist.  If they do, also familiarize yourself on how to navigate between accounts to make sure you can view your Inbox.  You may also want to check your settings to make sure that you have the default account set up as you expect for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Notes (if you're using all those features).  That is important only when initiating something new, you have to have a default account to do such a thing so make sure the default is your account since it is your iPad (assuming that's what you want).
    Alternatively, install the free Gmail app and then use only his (or your) account with that app and use the standard iOS Mail app for the other account.

  • Why ipad or ipad mini has no calling facility when wifi cellular is mentioned in specifications and also why do they never provide calling facility for their tablets?

    wifi+cellualr is clearly mentioned in ipad n ipad mini then why is there no calling facility?why does apple never provide calling facilities like other company tabs?

    stedman1:yeah i know that.my question is why doesn't it provide?i mean cellular means it should be having calling facilities right?and if it doesn't have and will never have calling facility then why add cellular in specifications.i mean it's just confusing and i guess i'm not the only person to ask this question,m i?
    The term cellular means cellular data only, there has never been a telephone capability built in to the iPad WiFi+cellular models.
    You must arrange cellular data coverage with your cellular carrier or another cellular carrier to use the cellular data capability of the iPad.

  • Can you connect iPad to Mac mini, Can you connect iPad to Mac mini

    Can you connect iPad to Mac mini, Can you connect iPad to Mac mini?

    Every Mac Mini has a USB port. Every Mac Mini can run iTunes. The only catch is that you need to be running Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) or later. So in general, yes, an iPad can connect to a Mac Mini.

  • I would like to buy am Ipad for my nephew. Which one is better to play games, ipad or ipad mini

    I would like to buy an ipad for my nephew. Which one is better, ipad or ipad mini? He wants to play games, and put lots of app.

    Probably the full iPad, because it has a better graphics card. The larger screen helps too.

  • Retina iPad or iPad mini ? A tough decision...

    Well, I guess a lot of people might have asked this question before, though I did not take the trouble to check.
    I have a 11" MacBook Air and an iPhone 4, and an iPad is obviously what is missing in-between. I need an iPad to read newpapers and magazines while commuting or on the move, and I also need the big display to use iPad as a map to guide me through unfamiliar neighbourhoods. So I would go for cellular. Ideally, I would love to have a Retina iPad mini. But God knows when a Retina iPad mini will be launched? And one more word someone will pop up and remind me that we are not permitted to speculate on Apple's future products here. So I will shut up.
    I've seen some people with the big iPad after iPad mini has been launched. Well, suddenly iPad looks horribly gigantic and oversized. But I wonder if I would accept an iPad mini without Retins when trying to read fine text...
    Perhaps I am not asking a question here. These are just my personal ruminations...

  • Smooth scrolling long articles still snaps on iPad retina and mini

    I have some long articles (between 6000px and 9000px). On the iPad 1 the smooth scroll  works fine, but on the iPad retina and mini the articles are snapping to undefined points in the article. Now the articles are impossible to read on the iPad retina and mini. Using PFD or JPG in the article properties doesn’t matter.
    Anyone knows why this works on iPad 01 and doesn’t work in the retina and mini version? THX

    Hi Bob,
    Thank you for replying.
    I just need one image in each state though -- that is shown anytime a user clicks on a button, so how would I limit the functionality of an image sequence to just show one photo while creating an MSO with a button? Would that mean creating a folder per image with one 01.jpg image in it and then making these 3 placeholders into an MSO? It seems to me that an image sequence is not providing the functionality I want and this is some sort of a hack unless I am misunderstanding its function.
    Sounds like a lot of redudant work instead of having a simpler way to show an MSO with high-res photos on an iPad 3/4 and smaller images on iPad 1/2 and Mini.
    Thanks,
    Alon

  • Benchmark scores of the iPad Air & iPad Mini are odd.

    Go to this page below:
    http://gfxbench.com/result.jsp?benchmark=gfx30&data-source=1&version=all&test=54 6&text-filter=&order=median&os-Android_gl=true&os-iOS_gl=true&arch-ARM=true&arch -x86=true&base=device
    Notice anything odd? I do. Why is that iPhone 5S is at the top of the benchmark score chart & iPad Air and iPad Mini Retina which both have the same hardware as the 5S (but more powerful) are nowhere to be seen next to it. In fact, The devices are actually on page 3 with lacklustre scores compared to the mobile phone ._.
    The same can be said for any of the benchmarks too.. I've even done all of the benchmarks on my own iPad Air & it's very true, iPhone 5S (a mobile phone) is getting way better scores than the iPad tablets.
    Can somebody please explain to me *** is going on with these scores? 'cause I'm confused. Upon doing research, I've found that the Apple A7 in the iPad Air & iPad Mini devices are essentially the same but more powerful than 5S cause of the slightly higher clock-speed & more spacious thermal headroom in the tablets.. So I fail to see why the 4S is getting vastly more impressive scores in any of the benchmarks.

    True.. I do believe you have a point there, iPad Air & iPad Mini Retina both run all of these benchmark tests in Retina (2048x1536) resolution compared to all of the other mobile devices on the chart running them at far lower resolutions.. so of course the scores on the tablets aren't going to be as competitive.
    Having said that, for reasons unknown.. Quite a few memory/performance issues currently plague the two iPad tablets on iOS 7.0.4 so I believe we'll see more truthful scores once iOS 7.1 releases which I've found (via watching YouTube vids of the new beta firmware in action) supposedly fixes the issues.
    We'll see, I guess.
