IPad 3G 20mb Data Download Limit

Hey.. I was just wondering, how do you get rid of Apps that say "Loading" but they didn't actually download because of 20mb Data Download Limit? Any Ideas would be much appreciated!!

In that case, instead of Starbucks, can't you use the "coconut wireless"?
Please, no GROANS...

IPad and constant data download on LTE

Anyone having issues with constant data downloads when LTE is turned on? I have a iPad 3 verizon - and when I have the LTE enable it constantly hits the cell network for about 2kb per second, as soon as I disable LTE and switch to 3G no more constant data download? Currently running iOS 6
Thanks

Open itunes on your computer, connect ipad mini, click File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

Is there a way of showing more info than just the title and author for books in my iPad "library", say date downloaded, or date last read, eg ?

Sometimes I forget the title of a book I am currently reading, and have to check through each book in my long list of titles in my "library" to find it again. I cant see any way of adding any additional information to each title (and author), like date downloaded, or date last read, which would help me find a particular book again quickly.
I may be missing something simple, so can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance.

FOUND SOMETHING OUT!!! SPOKE TO APPLECARE!!! 20MB Download Limit on iPad 3G

just spoke to an applecare staff. told me that the download limit is set BY APPLE!!! and can not be shut down!
***?? as apple launched iOS5 they pronounced an incredible new feature "cableless". in apple keynote they said "for customers who only want to use the ipad or the iphone as their one single device, we now offer the opportunity to start up your device without connecting to your computer!"
for example: a person only uses the ipad for its single device to go online. with no WIFI @ home... how does apple imagine that customers stay up to date with this limit? there is no possibility to update the ipad or iphone or what ever, because most of updates are over 20MB!!!!
seems like apple is kidding us!

The reason for buying the 3G version is pretty obvious to me. You have Internet access anywhere where as I have to be connected to a WiFi network to use my WiFi only iPad and have Internet access.
Surely, you can't possibly need to download files larger that 20MG every minute of every single day. You may consider this to be a major drawback with the 3G iPad, and others may as well, but hardly precludes the iPad from being a PC free device.
If you need to update or download larger files, you just have to find WFi access. That's all.

Is there a way to disable the 20mb download limit in iOS 5?

I currently have an Iphone 4 which I upgraded to iOS 5. I have an unlimited data plan so I am not concerned with going over any limits. I know you can now enable High Quality video over 3g and was wondering if there is a way to disable the 20mb download limit for things like apps or itunes?
Any help appreciated! Thanks!

The 20 mb limit is not technical because
using my iPhone tethering I have downloaded
much bigger files. Apple has done this to protect
users from heavy carrier charges for unintentional
usage. Apple should allow the user to
over rule this limit through a setup option.
I don't subscribe to a broadband service, I use my
3G service for both phone and laptop. Its working
fine for me except for this irritation.
I hope this change comes is in a near release
of ios.
btw the battery life has truly improve after
5.1

ITunes U: how do I turn off the 50 MB download limit for mobile data connections?

Since I rarely have access to Wi-Fi networks I do actually want to download iTunes U content using mobile data. Videos (and even some slide decks) exceed the 50 MB limit that iTunes U will allow you to download over mobile data connections. How do I turn off the 50 MB download limit for mobile data connections?

You can't unless the phone is jailbroken (which in turn voids your warranty)

HT3951 I downloaded a Movie iTunes to my ipad and it also downloaded to my iphone now I have over used my data how does this happen

Go into the settings and the app store. there you'll see the options to automatially update purchases. You can turn it off for music or other content. That should keep things from automatically downloading to both your devices.

IPad app won't download

iPad app ,won't download suggestions

Hi IAndrewD,
Several issues have encountered this issue. We've seen it in some of our reviews on the app store and on our support email list ([email protected]). So far, everyone who's contacted us has been able to successfully update after verifying that their network connection was working and restarting the download.
Please try the following:
1) Make sure wifi and/or cellular data are turned on
2) Test to be sure your internet connection is working by opening safari and browsing to a website (like www.adobe.com).
3) Single tap the app’s icon on the home screen and it will pause the download. Now go back to the iTunes Apps store, switch to the “Updates” screen and click “Update” to resume the download.
4) If this doesn't work, go to Settings -> iTunes & App Stores and tap the Apple ID to sign-out. Restart the iPad, go back to Settings -> iTunes Apps Store and sign-in. Tap the waiting icon to update the app.
I'd also be happy to work with you on our support email alias or by phone if you email [email protected]
Thank you!

My iPad Air won't download any apps or app updates.

Okay, so my iPad Air has not been downloading any apps, when I tap update it brings the download icon up but does nothing. I stop it then start it again and the loading icon just spins constantly. It's sorta the same thing when I download an app or anything else. my wifi is fine and I can connect to the internet with safari or any of my apps, I even tried it from a friends network and it did the same thing.
A List of things I have tried:
1. Turn off/on IPad
2. Reset iPad, (holding lock and home for 15 seconds)
3. Reset network settings
4. Reset all settings
5. updated iPad to iOS 8.1.2
6. signed out of iTunes threw settings>iTunes and App Store>Apple id> sign out, then restarted the iPad and signed back in
7. Downloading things from a different and working wifi connection
none of that has fixed it, I seriously do not want to back up and restore if at all possible because 1 it's such a hassle and 2 I have such bad luck with backups, last time I did a backup and restored from it I lost the app data for 5 of my apps 3 of them being games I loved playing (infinity blade 3, gangster vegas, modern combat 4) because no matter what I did or how many times I restored from the backup those apps would not sync over to the iPad. I had read something that I should check the Downloads tab in the ITunes store to make sure there were no downloads stuck preventing other things from downloading, but recently I noticed the download tab is no longer an option on my bar in iTunes and no icon for it in edit. same with my iPhone 6. (why would Apple remove something like that?) I searched every inch of the iTunes store and even in view your apple ID i can't find the download queue anywhere.
Am I overlooking the download queue? Did they remove it from iOS 8? Anything else I can try besides restoring? X.x this has been going on for to long now and I just got a Jot Touch for my iPad and wanted to download some apps i could use it with but I can't because of this, I'm also missing out on holiday stuff and new games :/ If anyone can help me with this I would love you forever.

Yeah, I know I can restore it, but I might as well go ahead and try. I just finished a backup for icloud and itunes to make sure, I'll go ahead and restore it and set it up as new and see how that works. Seems like I have no other options at this point, I'd still like to know what they did with the Download tab in itunes store, if they removed it or if I'm just overlooking it.

I ve brought apps on the comp for my ipad and they successfully downloaded but they wont sync to the ipad, any ideas?

I ve brought apps on the comp for my ipad and they successfully downloaded onto itunes but now they wont sync to the ipad... Any ideas? Im lost and annoyed... :/

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)
If it comes back, try deleting a different app or two temporarily to see if it'll complete the download. Then you can delete it.

How do I stop my iPad 3 from automatically downloading iOS upgrades

I have an iPad 3rd gen now with iOS7. A few days ago I had iOS6, and discovered by serendipity, that the ipad had automatically downloaded iOS7 and then asked me to install it. I was never asked if I wanted to download the upgrade.
I had all the settings set so that this would not happen. So.....why did it happen?
My ISP is a satellite internet hookup which has a limit on how much I download, unless I do it between 12 MN - 5AM. There is no download limit during those hours. For large downloads I get them done during MN and 5AM. The iOS7 upgrade was about 900MB and happened during the day. It threw the switch on my service because of exceeding my limit, and slowed me down to dial-up speed.
I need to know how to prevent this in the future. Anyone out there with any ideas? Any help much appreciated.

I have a similar procedure that I used on my iPad mini (16 GB)
For those interested, I've created a work-around. The idea is to fill up the memory on the device with *your own files* so the auto-pushed download will see that there's not enough room on the device and won't begin the download at all. The approx max size you need to leave *free* on the device is ~2.45 GB. The download will not initiate if this size (or less) is on the device. If more memory than this is free, the download will begin again when the device is connected to Wi-Fi and is externally powered.
1. Create a video file on the iPad's video camera of about 5 minutes in length (~684 MB) which you use as "padding", taking up space on the iPad.
2. Copy that file multiple times into a folder on your HDD, renaming each one sequentially IMG_01.MOV (IMG_01 - IMG_20. I have 20 copies on mine.
3. Restore the iPad as new from the iPad itself (Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings) to keep the device at iOS 6.x
4. Setup the iPad with Wi-Fi and activate it.
5. Disable Wi-Fi on the iPad.
6. Take one picture with the iPad (to create the Camera folder on the iPad)
7. Download & install iFunBox (Google it)
8. Run iFunBox with iPad connected and access the Camera folder on the iPad
9. Fill the Camera folder with the video padding files you created above. On my 16GB mini, I filled the folder with 17 of the video padding files, leaving ~2.45 GB free on the mini.
10. Re-enable Wi-Fi on the device.
11. Copy your apps/music/etc to the iPad as you would normally. As your memory size reduces on the device, simply delete one or two of the video padding files using iFunBox being careful not to leave *more than* ~2.45GB free. This way, *you* have control over what is being pushed (or NOT pushed) to the device and when you need more memory, you free it up yourself as needed.

I have 2 iPads, I can only download some apps to one device not the other one?

I have 2 iPads, but can only download some apps to one and not the other?. How can I get the same app on both iPads?
Thanks

1. Make sure iPad is using the latest software
2. Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
3. Make sure Time Zone is correct
4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

3G - 20 Meg download limit

I've got a stack of prepaid credit on my ISP's 3G ipad account, and would like to use it up.
I've got a number of apps I would like to update that are over 100 Meg, but can not download them from my iPad because of the 20 Meg limit. Understandably apple have this 20 Meg limit on a mobile device - but I was wondering if there is anyway I could turn this off? Im on the road a lot and don't have access to a wireless network unless I'm in a library or somewhere like that which genously lets users download all they want via wireless.

This is a user-to-user forum. If you want Apple to hear your concerns, submit your feedback directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:

The download limit has not increased the likelihood that I will jailbreak my iPad.

Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.
