IPad location problem.

I got my iPad just new and set it to the United States because if I set it to my default location, Saudi Arabia, the notification bar and calendar will be in Arabic, which I don't like. But I realized that if its on United States, the maps application won't work because it always opens on United States. Even worse, I can't navigate in Saudi Arabia because it thinks that I want from the USA to Saudi. So I can't change it to Saudi because it looks ugly, and I can't use maps when it's on the USA because it can't navigate.
Please I really would appreciate answers
Thank you .
My device: The New IPad - iOS 6.01

But if I set it to Arabic, the notification bar and the Calendar would be displayed in Arabic. I want it displayed in English and to have its location in Saudi Arabia.

  • Storm9530 Location problem??

    Hi, i live in Canada and recently purchased a used and unlocked BB Storm 9530 off the internet from texas USA. I am using the phone Pre-paid for the time being and for some reason my calls I make are costing me a fortune. I live in a border-town with a US town right on the american side but since the phone is pre-paid it cant roam. Ive talked to my cell phone company about this and they said for some reason the phones is calling internationally and its not the service itself. The phone is manually selected for my home network and i just cant figure it out. is it because the phone is an american phone? is there any way of checking more into this because i cant even use my phone to call because $5.00 for a 15 second call is rediculous. please help!

    Does anyone know if Apple is ever going to fix the location problem.  I live in IL and my Ipad thinks I'm in NC.  I'm lucky though, searching the problem on the net I found most people who live in the US are having Ipad that think they live in Europe and Germany.  At least mine is on the same side of the world.
    What a totally ridiculous claim. Most iPad owners have no problems at all in this area. The fact that you are is invidual to you and your case and, absent any useful information at all in your two posts aside from "Hey, it ain't working ...", I guess we could guess that your problems are due to the fact that
    a. You don't have a 3G model, and therefore you don't have GPS, or ..
    b. You do, but it isn't working right, or ..
    c. You do, and it's working right, but PEBKAM, or ..
    d. You don't have a 3G model, and your iPad is unable to resolve the local WIFI data to generate a rough location, or ...
    e. Same as d. above, but the local wifi datafields are simply incomplete or incorrect, or ...
    f.  Yadda yadda yadda ......

  • I just moved and my iPad location is still showing my old location how do I change that?

    I just moved and my iPad location is still showing my old location how do I change that?

    That's the problem.  A WiFi-only iPad uses a database of router locations to determine location.  Unfortunately, the mechanics behind this database are a tightly-held secret.  Your location may change to the correct one within a week or two or it may take as long as a year!  (I'm not kidding.)  Incidentally, it will help if you're within range of other routers.  Doesn't matter if you pass data through them and also doesn't matter if they're locked.  The only requirement is "within range."
    By the way, you will find that, if you take your iPad away from your house, it will report your location more accurately.

  • HT1296 IPad 3 Problem

    I have an IPad 3 problem I bought in October 2012.  I shut down as I do on a weekly basis. I now cannot open at all, it wont let me slide across and I keep get the following msg which I cannot get rid of.   Cannot Access Find my Friends  Open the app and review your signin information to continue sharing your location.  Then either tap on the Later or Open.  I cannot do either.  I have noticed in the top right-hand next to the battery sign a little sign like a circle with an arrow pointint clockwise and a small lock in the centre.  Can anyone help with this problem.

    The icon is the rotation lock indicator.
    Have you tried resetting your iPad?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • IPad syncing problem - HELP!

    iPad sync problem - HELP!  I keep getting this message "...cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional ...space needed)"  and yet I seem to have plenty of space on the iPad.  This just started today.  I even tried deleting some things to make even more room, but it didn't help.  Any ideas??? 
    I was thinking of restoring, but I've never done it...  should I? 
    thank you!

  • I updated my first generation iPad to version 5.1.1 and won't go past the setup screen that asks if I want to use the iPad locator. I can go back but can't get any further.

    I updated my first generation iPad to version 5.1.1 and won't go past the setup screen that asks if I want to use the iPad locator. I can go back but can't get any further

    I just updated my original iPad 32 GB WiFi to iOS 5.1 about fifteen minutes ago.  But I did it with the system restore feature in iTunes.  So it wiped out everything on my iPad.  But it did work.  Then I restored an earlier backup and all went fine.  Maybe you could try backing up your iPad and then using Restore to get it back to factory settings to see what happens.

    hi, i just bought an ipad.my problems is the privious owner dont reset the apple id.i just reset the ipad.now i cant active the ipad with my apple id.what can i do?

    You will have to contact the previous owner and ask him/her to remove the iPad from their account, he/she is the only person that can do it : Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account - you won't be able to use the iPad until they do so.

  • IPad IOS6 problems?

    iPad wifi problems with IOS6

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. 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.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    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
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    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.

  • XSD Location Problem.

    Hi Gurus,
    After starting the node in a cluster environemnt, often receiving "Unable to load Translation schemas from for http://xmlns.oracle.com/BRM/schemas/BusinessOpcodes due to: XSD Location problem.
    XSD Loading problem."
    This is mainly observed in BRM schemas, has anyone exprienced this? what shall be the workaround/solution other than restarting the container/application?
    We are using SOA 10.1.3.4 MLR 8 and Oracle AIA 2.4.
    Please help.

    The BRM schemas are present in the AIA Components which will be referred by the load balancer url in a clustered environment. However, if in any of the nodes, the url for AIA Components has the local node url instead of load balancer url, this issue occurs.
    Identify the node which is giving the issue (shutting down one node at a time and retrying the operation which gives the error). In the node which has the issue, try doing a search on AIA components to find out if there is any reference using local node url instead of load balancer.
    If you find any, replace with the load balancer url. I had faced a similar issue and I was able to resolve it as I have mentioned above.
    Cheers,
