Ipad in france for a month
Hi. Our daughter will be travelling to France for a month (actually, 5 weeks) and we wish to equip her iPad 3G with data for the trip.
The problem: no French credit card, no French bank account. I am aware of prepaid cards from SFR for 9 Euro; this works great if you are there for a couple of days, but after the first two days it is 6 Euro/day which is obviously prohibitive.
Other than that card, how can I get her 5 weeks worth of data on her iPad without breaking the bank?
I guess I should have been more specific: we are looking for 3G data access.
So far I appreciate the effort, but the advice isn't too helpful. As I indicated in my original post, I am familiar with SFR as one of the internet providers; I believe Orange is another. Telling me to use wifi or put the iPad away isn't really addressing the issue.
I am looking for someone who knows how to get 3G access for 5 weeks or so from a French provider without having a French credit card or a French bank account (which are usually required to get a contract in France).

How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening. I don't want to use my iPad to take the video...too large/bulky. And I WON'T have a computer with me...I purchased the iPad to take with me so I could use the RDC to my home computer and avoid taking my computer at all. Is this possible?
here is a cheaper solution than camera kit and a lot easier if you have WIFI available.
I use the PhotoSync APP (I think its a $1.99) will transfer videos and photos over WIFI to any other IOS device or even PC/MAC. Great app since I like doing video and photos on my IPHONE and transfer to IPAD2 without synching through computer or doing cloud based storage.
You can even send photos/videos from your MAC/PC to your IOS devices that way too. Makes it so much easier.

I have had my iPad for 6 months. We recently had a power outage and my iPad was plugged in with the adapter that came with it. Since then I can not charge iPad with adapter, however I can charge it SLOWLY on my computer. Do you think the adapter got fried? Also do you HAVE to have iTunes with an iPad, they were charging me alot of fees for games I did not download NOR give my password to have them downloaded so I cancelled iTunes because fo too many fees. Could this have anyting to do with the battery not charging?

Well, something's definitely wrong if it won't charge from a wall outlet. Make an appointment at a Genius Bar or take it to an Apple certified repair provider.
As for iTunes charges, according to Apple iTunes Store: All Sales Are Final

Original iPad mini had water damage, then sat around for 8 months.
I have an iPad mini with water damage that has been sitting around for 8 months.
I woke up in the middle of the night and spilled water on it. It was plugged in and in an Otterbox. I unplugged it, took it out of the case, and dried it off. I then put it back in the case, plugged it in, and went back to bed.
When I awoke, it was no longer working. I can't remember anymore details than that, so I have no idea what was the ultimate killer of it. I tried putting it in a bag of rice, but it didn't work. What I want to know is how much would it cost to fix it, if It can be fixed. If not, what would you all do? I loved this thing to death and kept hoping it would come back, but it hasn't.

I have been using yahoo mails from iPad for several months. Today I am unable to access my mails even though I logged in to yahoo....the signin screen is keep coming when I tried to access mail.....is it due to iPad or yahoo?
It sounds like you might need to contact Yahoo! if you aren't able to setup your email account as a new account after deleting it.
I found some links on the Yahoo! website that might help:

I didn't used my iPad 2 for many months. Last week when I tried to use it, it wasn't charged. Then I put it on charging and again didn't used it for a week. Yesterday, When I tried to use it again it's saying that it is disabled for 22 million mins. I treid to restore it by connecting to iTunes but it's not restoring. Kindly Help.
Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.

My calendar on my iPad keeps showing the wrong month! When it is halfway through May for example on the top left it still says April!
Hi GraphoPD,
If your iPad is showing the wrong date, follow the troubleshooting steps below to resolve the issue:
iOS: Troubleshooting issues with date and time - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203483
Learn the steps to take if your device has any of the following issues with the date and time.
Incorrect date or time
Wrong time zone being set automatically
Issues related to automatically switching with daylight savings time
Follow these steps. Test after each step to see if the issue is resolved.
Ensure that the version of iOS on your device is up to date.
If the option to enable date and time automatically is available, turn it on. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
Ensure that your time zone is set up correctly. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time > Time Zone.
If the incorrect date, time, or time zone is being set up automatically on the device, please notify your cellular provider. In the meantime, tap General > Date & Time and turn off Set Automatically. Then set the appropriate time and time zone manually.
Note: The option to set automatically might not be available on all carriers in all countries.Learn more
Note: If you find that your device's time is incorrect after you sync with your computer, your computer's time may be incorrect. Verify the computer's time in System Preferences > Date & Time (you may want to select the checkbox to set the computer's date and time automatically).

If my ipad has a dint in it but it still worked for 7 months after that moment and know it just stoped working does the year warranty still apply.
No. iPads that have any type of denting or physical damage (old or new) are not covered under the warranty. Apple would have no way of determining when the damage was done or if that damage caused your present issue.
I believe that once they see physical damage, their reasoning for voiding the warranty would be that visible, physical damage, irregardless of when it ocurred. -
