Ipad cover doesn't allow swipe up for airplay on ios7

Help! I have downloaded ios7 on all our school ipads and because of the shape of our ipad covers, can no longer access airplay. We cannot swipe up as the cover is too chunky. Does anyone know of another way to access airplay other than the swipe up?? Thanks

Yes, the shape of the cover is the problem. Interestingly, the swipe up works fine for ipad 4s, it's the ipad 2s that are the problem. It's **** near impossible to get airplay to work on them. Grrr
Then likely - and I am seriously not being facetious - the cover is also the solution. Needs to be replaced.

  • YouTube Built-in app on iPad 2 doesn't allow sharing to Facebook?

    When I purchased my iPad 2, it was to use this for Facebook, YouTube, and twitter.
    On the appe website it says, "When you find a YouTube video your friends just have to see, tap Share on any YouTube video detail page. iPad creates an email with the video link, ready to send. Post it to your Facebook following. Tweet about it."   The apple page even shows a logo of Facebook next to paragraph.
    Under the "Share" option, I only see the ability to send an email with a video link or to post to your twitter account.  There is no post option for Facebook.
    I have tried unsuccessfully to find a way to share my YouTube videos with my Facebook friends. When I search this forum, I see posts going back to 2009, where lots of people are having this same issue, and similarly referenced apples site saying this was able to be done.
    What's going on here? I mean even obsolete web forums and older iPhone YouTube apps have a one-click ability to share YouTube videos on Facebook.

    Have you tried logging out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settngs > iTunes & App Store and then logging back in and seeing if they show in the Purchased tab for redownloading ?
    When you backed up your iPad on your computer's iTunes, did you also trasnfer your downloads over to your computer via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases ? The apps themselves aren't included in a backup, just their content/settings, so for a restore to be able to copy your apps onto a device the apps need to be in the Apps part of your computer's iTunes library. If you copy them from your old iPad or redownload them on your computer via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage you can then retry restoring to the backup

  • My new ipad air doesn't allow me to see purchased apps

    I've backed up my old ipad on itunes and set up the new ipad air from the backup but none of the apps have appeared and when I go to the App Store to download them from iCloud the icon for iCloud doens't appear and there are no apps visible in the Purchased Apps tab so I can't download the apps I had on my old ipad. How do I get the new ipad air to have the same content (including apps) as the old one?

  • Pop-up blocking exception doesn't allow pop-up for banking site

    I have entered an exception web address and selected 'allow', but the pop-up is still not allowed. Internet Explorer has no issue, so I figure it's not my virus protection.
    I do not understand what Firefox is looking for.

    The following article includes information about the pop-up blocker and some troubleshooting steps. Please read that article, I believe it will help you get this issue resolved.

    Hey brainmasala,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Sounds like you are not able to connect to a Wi-Fi network with your iPad. This article has a section for Unable to connect to a Wi-Fi network and the second article is the recommended network settings. If after these it still has the same issue you may want to restore the device to factory settings.

    Open the App Store app, go to the Featured pane, swipe to the bottom, tap the Apple ID and sign out. Tap again and sign in with the Apple ID of your choosing.

  • HT1694 My hotmail access disappeared from my iPad. When I go to settings and click 'mail, contacts, calendars' the page freezes. It doesn't allow me to the account setting. Anyone have suggestions?

    My hotmail access disappeared from my iPad. When I go to settings and click 'mail, contacts, calendars' the page freezes. It doesn't allow me to the account setting. Anyone have suggestions?

    Your Settings app is crashing. Sometimes, the only way to fix this is by restoring the iOS software but hopefully it will not come to that.
    1. Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    2. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    3. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • Why won't apple allow current "AppleCare" holders upgrade to "AppleCare "? Doesn't this seem unfair for such a giant in the tech industry to not offer such an opportunity?

    Why won't apple allow current "AppleCare" holders upgrade to "AppleCare "? Doesn't this seem unfair for such a giant in the tech industry to not offer such an opportunity?

    Sorry - not understanding. What do you mean by "upgrade"? When you purchase an Apple Product, you get AppleCare automatically - 90 Days of Telephone Support, and a 1-Year Warranty.
    You can then purchase an AppleCare Protection Plan for Mac, iPod, and Apple TV, or AppleCare+ for iPad or iPhone.
    AppleCare Protection Protection Plans can be purchased any time within the 1-year warranty period.
    Apple+ must be purchased within 30 days of purchase.
    AppleCare Protection Plan extends the warranty to 3 years for Macs, and to 2 years for Apple TV and iPod.
    AppleCare+ extends the warranty to 2 years for iPad and iPhone.
    There is no "upgrade"....You either purchase the extened warranty protection plan or you don't. And unlike most extended warranty plans, you are NOT required to purchase it at the time you purchase your Apple product.
    What's the beef here?

  • Looking for an iPad(iPad/Mac) app that allows for playlists to migrate to iPad

    I am specifially and exclusively looking for recommendations for an iPad(iPad/Mac) app that allows for my playlists to be migrated to iPad intact and playable.
    iTunes -> Podcast/Music/Videos does not support mixed (music/video/podcast) playlits or video playlist at all. The app(s) should be able to easily create these playlist on the Mac (and manage content) much like iTunes (10).
    On the phone with tech support today and they agree this is missing functionality from Apple. They suggested I reach out on to other users that may have a thrid party solution.

    Requires each device/user have an unique Apple ID(verifiable email address):
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-friends/id466122094?mt=8
    Otherwise you can use Find My Phone, but requires logging in for each separate user. Find My Friends(built by Apple) will show everyone's location on one device.

  • My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. Please help.

    My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. In the past when I have updated successfully, the spinning circle would show me an indicator of time left on the update. I no longer have this Indicator. The circle just spins and times out and nothing happens. I've reset the iPad in the settings menu, reset the router, logged in and out of Apple id, powered ithe iPad off and on, and tried a couple other "fixes" that I've read online. So far no luck. AAny help would be greatly appreciated. Much thanks!

    How much free space do you have? If it is low, installers may not be able to run properly.

  • Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • I recently got an extension cord for my ipad charger and the first time I used it it worked and now when I plug it in to my ipad It doesn't do anything. What do I do?

    I recently got an extension cord for my ipad charger and the first time I used it it worked and now when I plug it in to my ipad It doesn't do anything. What do I do?

    I think that we all understood what you meant. If the extension cord is no longer working, then return it.
    We are all trying to tell you that you can plug the power block into a standard household extension cord - using the short cord that came with the iPad - and there is no need for the extension cord that you bought.

  • HT1918 I moved to another country and would like to change the billing country for the credit card. It doesn't allow me to switch the country only street etc.. Do I have to create a new account separately for a new country?

    I moved to another country and would like to change the billing country for the credit card. It doesn't allow me to switch the country only street etc.. Do I have to create a new account separately for a new country?

    Nope. You can only have one credit card attached to an account at a time. Its not that big of a deal to use two accounts, users do this all the time. Create the second account(UK Account) in iTunes on your computer...sign out of your Italian account first. Then authorize your computer for this new account: Store>Authorize this computer. Then sync your phone. Now, to switch accounts on your phone: Settings>Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...then sign back in with the ID you want to use.
