Ipad air originally att. want to change to verizon

i want to change my ipad air (cellular) from att to verizon. verizon system doesn't recognize the id numbers when asking to get a sim card. Chatted with Verizon rep who said maybe apple can add the ipad to Verizon's device list...true? seems like a non-answer from verizon. was just trying to do it correctly. my phones are all verizon..maybe they would prefer if i sign-up with att? ipad was a gift is why the att.

  • I purchased a new ipad air and i want to change what syncs on my ipad 4

    I purchase our third iPad and when I add apps to my iPad Air they show up on the iPad 4.  Can I rename or re-id the iPad 4 without losing the apps my wife uses?

    If you download apps on the iPad Air and they are also downloading to the iPad 4, on the iPad 4, go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Automatic Downloads>Apps>Off.
    You can rename either or both iPads in Settings> General> About> Name.
    You can select unique content to sync on each iPad without affecting what is on the other iPad. When the iPad is connected to your computer's iTunes, just go into each tab, Apps, Music, Photos, books, etc - and select the content that you want to sync to that device. You can choose whatever apps, etc that you want to sync to each device.
    Assuming that you are Windows, this might be helpful.

  • Upgrading from an iPad1 (os 5.5.1) to iPad Air.  I want to still use the original, but want to transfer my iPad 1 stuff to my new iPad.  Do I restore (doesn't that also restore the old os?) or set up as new?

    I'm ipgrading from an iPad1 (os 5.5.1) to a new iPad Air.  I want to still use the original, but want to transfer my iPad 1 stuff to my new iPad.  Do I restore (doesn't that also restore the old os?) or set up as new?
    Also, every time I get a new device and transfer stuff from the old, I wind up with no folders.  How can I avoid that this time? 
    Thanks in advance!

    Make a backup of your old iPAd to itunes or iCloud.
    Then restore from that backup when setting up the new iPad Air.
    The restore will put your data onto the new iPad.  (The Os will remain at 7).
    Folder structure is a little iffy. Since backups don't restore Apps, only data, you would still need to re-download the Apps to the new Air and as such would need to create the folders for them.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the other ID.  When you delete the account it will prompt you about what to do with the iCloud data.  If you need to migrate it and merge it with the data in the new account choose Keep on My iDevice; then choose Merge to upload the data and merge it with the new account.  If your data is already in the other account and you don't need to migrate it to the other account, choose Delete from My iDevice.

  • I cannot get my IPad air to connect to wireless in home. Two other iPad 2's connect as well as laptops. I have already exchanged one iPad air and none want to connect. Husband has taken iPad air to the apple store, connects here but not here. Who can help

    Can someone please help???  I received am IPad air in November for my birthday and have not been able to use yet,  I could not get it to connect so I returned it for another iPad air. And cannot get it to connect to wireless either. I have three other iPad 2's and laptops in home and everything connects with no problem. What is the deal with these iPad airs? My husband took the iPad to Apple store, it works there but didn't change anything so it won't work at home. Do I need to step down to old IPad since that's all that will connect in home.  This is crazy,!!! How can I get my IPad air working in my home.???

    Some things to try first:
    1. 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.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. 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
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • I recently purchased icloud storage for my iPad Air.  I want to store photos in the cloud and learn how to retrieve them.  I need help.

    I recently  purchased iCloud storage for my iPad Air so that I can store my photos in the cloud.  I don't know how to do this.  I want to be able to retrieve them as well. 

    Hello Janet
    With that iCloud storage that you purchased, is used for mainly for iCloud Backup for your iPad Air, app data as in games and documents for like iWork and other apps that save data locally within the app. Dealing with photos in your Photo Stream they actually do not count towards that storage plan. If you don’t think that the storage is going to work for you, then cancel the upgrade you just made.

  • HT202794 I am unable to download Pages or other iWorks components (free) on my newly purchased IPad Air.  They want payment info when you  try despite a previous answer to a query saying otherwise.

    Please advise how to get free Pages download on new iPad Air.

    Try logging out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if those apps then show as free.

  • Verizon ipad air will only register if you call verizon pre-paid?

    I bought an Verizon ipad air yesterday.  I went in on the ipad and signed up for a monthly plan.  It told me it would charge me immediately.  I then tried to use it and it said that I had used all my data for the month.  I chatted with verizon wireless and they said they couldn't see that the payment went through.  They told me to call verizon prepaid.  I called verizon prepaid and they said that they could see that I had "set up" the credit card, but that I would have to call them any time I wanted to change the amount of data and that I needed to call them to have the payment go through.  She took a payment over the phone.  Is this right?  I thought we were to be able to do all of this from the ipad.  What is the use of having the menus if I have to call them anyway?

    I am having a bizarre experience in trying to set up my iPad Air with Verizon.
    The problem comes down to the "Name as it appears on your credit card" field. My last name is a "Mc*" but that field will not let me capitalize the letter after the "Mc". If I type "McL" as soon as I enter the next letter the L automatically reverts to a lowercase l. If I type "Mc Lxxx" but then go back to delete the space between the "Mc" and the "L" the L again automatically reverts to a lowercase l.
    I have turned off all the keyboard settings that pertain to automatic spell check, etc. to no avail.
    I even tried typing my name in a Note and then pasting it into that field. When I did that it pasted as it should but when I tapped the "Next" button to go to the next step in the account setup process I got an error message that highlighted that field and when I checked it it hade reverted to a lowecase l again.
    This is really baffling and is really p$ssing me off. I bought a new Nexus 7 a few weeks ago and it was a breeze to setup with TMobile.
    Other than changing my last name to "Smith" anbody have any suggestions?

  • Silly question, maybe. I want to change from Verizon DSL to cable, but cable company doesn't supply router.  can I use my Airport Extreme as wireless router?

    We currently have the following wireless home-network configuration, powered by Verizon DSL. 
    2 macbook pro’s
    1 emachine
    HP PhotoSmart 6122 all-in-one printer
    Apple TV
    Apple Airport Extreme Base Port A 1408
    Westell 7500 router
    Thinking I’d get wider wireless coverage throughout my 2 bedroom home, I purchased the Airport Extreme. It is connected to the router via its sole usb port.  The result was only a tiny increase in speed, and no increase in coverage, so I don’t know why I have it.
    We now want to change from DSL to cable, thus ditching Verizon.  Our new cable provider supplies the cable box, but no router for wireless networking. 
    Here are my questions.
    Can I use the Airport Extreme (AE) as a wireless router? 
    If so, how should I hook it up?  Should the usb cable go from the AE to the cable box, and all the other devices connect wirelessly?
    If not, how should I be using the AE to some advantage?  What can I get out of the investment?
    Thank you very much for your help!  Beatriz

    What I wrote has nothing to do with what the cable company charges for their installation. And, usually they will help with the router setup even if you supply your own router. I don't know what they will charge for the modem.
    Note that you need to get just a modem. You don't want a modem/router combination. That will make using an AEBS effectively nearly impossible. You will need to ask specifically for just a standalone modem, and that you will supply your own router.

  • TS3899 IPad Air, Mail, I want incoming e-mails to be displayed as previews that I must click to open. I do not want the already opened e-mail view on the left of my mailboxes. Lu

    I know how to delete an e-mail. That is not my question. On my Mac and iphone my email view is of preview of e-mails that I then click to open If I want to read them. I want the same mail view on my I-pad. So that I can delete possible spam mail without opening the e-mail. How do I change the view settings for my mail on my I-pad?

    Sorry, you can't. The default mail app always has a mail open. The only way around it is to always have an older mail selected so that it's open, not the newer ones.
    or look for another app. I'm afraid that I have no recommendation to make.
