16gb iPad Mini with retina or 32gb original mini
Ok, so I'm after an ipad mini and am dithering as to with I go for.
I was set on a 32gb mini (1st gen) but now am thinking would I be better with a new mini with retina?
Was only going for a 32gb as my phone has this.
Want the ipad for reading, movies, internet. Usually have few books, 4/5 movies on at one time, few albums, no photos.
On a budget of around £300 as this is a present.
Any advice on what to go for?McMaster14 wrote:
I guess it's the internals I need to consider with regards to processor etc.
Agreed ~ the new iPad mini with Retina display is more "future proofed" with its A7 chip with 64-bit architecture and M7 motion coprocessor. ...One can imagine in the future Apple saying that the new iOS <n> is only for 64-bit processors. -
Choosing b/w 32GB iPad mini RD and 16GB iPad Air
Hello there,
Have a confusion b/w 32GB iPad mini with Retina Display and 16GB iPad Air.
My usage is limited to reading ebooks,using some apps, watching movies and occationally playing games.
Could anybody plz suggest the best...
ThanksI do not own an iPad Mini but I have used one before in an Apple Store and they are quite comfortable. You do have to hold it with two hands (or if you have big hands, only need to hold it with one! ) but the screen does look as good/better than the iPad Air as it is the same resolution.
And to me, the full-sized iPads are only comfortable when they are on your lap, not when holding them.
And, of course more storage is a bonus - I have about 100 songs and about 200 apps (some of which are 1GB+) on a 32GB iPad w/ Retina Display so 32GB should do you just fine. 16GB would only be good if you don't download much.
Good luck with your choice! And I hope this helps! -
the question is
we can take my ipad mini 32 gb lte i buyed with free contract on att and give me the new ipad mini with retina display with how much difference please
help meI'm sorry but this would be down to Apple, you'd have to ask them directly.
Regards,

What is better for college? An iPad air or an iPad mini with retina display?
I'm currently a junior in high school and I'll be graduating in the summer of 2015. My parents, well mostly dad, are planning on buying me the iPad air with 128 GB of memory. I got curious and went to look at the price and compare models and I saw that the iPad mini with retina display was the same as the iPad air, the only difference is the size. Since I saw that it was cheaper I was thinking on telling my parents to buy me that instead of the iPad air because it is more costy and my family isn't really the rich kind of people. I will be only using the iPad for school and nothing else since I have my iPod to play games on and stuff so it will only be used for purely educational purposes. Plus I've been hearing around that the iPad air is not that great and stuff because it has a bigger screen and such. Personally for me, I do not care about the screen size I just care about the price for my parents' sake because I don't like it when they have to spend a lot of money. So can you please help me decide on which to get and why it would be better than the other? Please and thank you.

Unless you are going to store many thousands of high resolution photos and LOTs of movies or videos, you don't need a 128GB storage. Save some $ and get a smaller capacity.

Wifi does not work correctly on iPad Mini w/ Retina display
I've found that Wifi does not work properly on the iPad mini w/ Retina display.
Some background: I own three iPads (iPad mini w/ retina display, iPad mini, and iPad 3rd gen), an iPod touch 5th gen, and a Macbook Air, and use them all frequently with my pocket Wifi router.
None of them exhibit any Wifi problems whatsoever except for my iPad mini w/ retina display.
Here are the details:
In the middle of using Wifi with my pocket Wifi router, the Wifi connection will abrubptly drop, then reconnect. After the Wifi reconnects, it is no longer able to connect to the internet (even though Wifi itself is connected).
Once the iPad mini w/ retina display's Wifi gets into this state, the following may or may not restore WiFi temporarily:
Restart the device
Reset network settings
Yet, even if connectevitiy is restored, the problem will happen again within minutes.
When the iPad mini w/ retina display gets into this state, the Wifi on my iPod touch, other iPads, and on my Macbook Air work perfectly fine, so I know the problem is not with my Wifi device or it's connection, but specifically with the iPad mini w/ retina display
Note:
The iPad mini w/ retina display never has any issues with my home or work Wifi networks. The problem only happens when connected to my pocket Wifi device. Yet, all of my other iOS devices and my MacBook Air work perfectly with my pocket Wifi device, therefore I know the problem is not with the pocket Wifi device, but with the iPad mini with retina display.
Solutions:
Resetting the iPad mini w/ retina display to factory settings does not solve the problem
Resetting network settings on the iPad mini w/ retina display does not solve the problem
I have even replaced my original iPad mini w/ retina and got a new one. Yet, the new device exhibits the exact same behavior as the original device.
Conclusion:
I know this is not a hardware problem (since it happened with both my original as well as replacement device).
I know this is not a problem with my pocket WiFi router, since it works perfectly with all of my other iOS devices and MacBook Air.
Therefore, this must be a software / firmware bug with the iPad mini w/ retina display. Apple will need to fix this in a future software update.
Has anyone else seen this problem?I too have experienced this issue over the past two days... I have a 16gb ipad mini retina, for reference. I bought the device one week ago, and had not experience any issues at all until bringing my device to work. I logged into my work's enterprise level wireless network both yesterday and today, maintained normal wifi capabilities for 2-4 hours each day, and was then randomly dropped, both days. I tried hard resets, resetting my network settings, airplane mode, etc. Nothing has worked. I am still offline on my ipad mini retina.
My iPhone 5 is sitting right next to my iPad mini retina. The iPhone is currently connected to the same very network, and has been for the past two years. I have never lost connection on my iPhone's wifi, just my iPad mini retina.
This must be some kind of bug, as it does not sound like a hardware nor network issue.
Hopefully they fix this in 7.1. -
My iPad mini with retina display has blue edges?!
Similar to what I heard about the new Kindle HDX 7 to my dismay, my iPad mini with retina display that I drove an hour to pickup at the closest Apple store has an extremely noticeable blue tint on the top of the screen. Also ever so slightly on the right hand side. Anyone else have this? Am I being too picky? Will the apple store replace this? I paid Apple's premium price so I feel it should be perfect.
Yeah it's definitely not normal. I was thinking I'm not waiting 5 days for a replacement so I drove an hour back to the Apple store and got a replacement. The Apple employee was very helpful and could clearly see the blue hue. I ended up switching to a white model to change it up, and because they had zero 32gb black models. I love the white it makes it feel totally newer versus my old black non retina mini. So moral of the story, don't settle for blue backlight bleeding. This new one has NONE and I'm 100% satisfied!!

New iPad mini with Retina won't pair with new Bluetooth speakers
Just got a brand new 16gb iPad mini with Retina display and also TDK (Life on Record) Bluetooth speakers. The iPad mini will not display the speakers on the optional bluetooth menu when I attempt to pair. I have tried all combinations of rebooting and making sure there are no other bluetooth signals near. Please help.
PS - My iPhone pairs perfectly so nothing wrong with the speakers. And yes I unpaired and tried turning off the phone when attempting to pair the iPadThis worked on my TDK speaker, first time you sync a new device, hold down Bluetooth button on device until it beeps then turn on iPad bluetooth and it will detect and then connect. I hooked two new minis to it by this procedure., clearing the device each time by holding down the Bluetooth button until beep. Once connected this way one time the speaker remains in my iPhone and the two iPads and connects with no problems now. I guess some devices hold one connection in the memory but once your Idevice has the info it can connect.

Why is my new iPad mini with retina very, very jerky and slow?
Hi,
Does anyone know what I can do about my new iPad being very, very jerky and slow?
FACT - The multitouch screen is unresponsive and I have to press and press and press to select what I want before it reacts.
It's an iPad mini with retina, so it's got the new chipset which runs really, really fast.
FACT - What happens is:
I start up pages and it freezes completely for quite a while before allowing me access to my documents.
I go to settings and it freezes up totally for quite a while before allowing me access to my settings.
Is there a cure? I get similar problems on my acompanying really, really fast iPhone 5s.
PS
Plenty of memory left so no problems there - only about half used and they're both 32gb.
...and my beloved iPad2 never used to do this either.How to Fix a Slow iPad

iPad running slow? How to speed up a slow iPad
http://appletoolbox.com/2012/07/ipad-running-slow-how-to-speed-up-a-slow-ipad/
If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up
http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/
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.

After updating to iOS 8.0.2 on my iPad mini w/Retina, FaceTime crashes
I updated to iOS 8.0.2 on my iPad mini w/Retina Display 128Gb. Now, when I attempt to open the FaceTime app it begins to initialize and then simply crashes out. I can receive a FaceTime call and the FaceTime app will open but I cannot initiate a FaceTime call. I have “Restored” my iPad mini twice but on both occasions I have restored from a backup. As the behaviour continues, this leads me to believe that my backup is potentially corrupted. I do not wish to “Restore as new” because of the substantial time burden this would place on me to manually reinstall all of my apps, passwords, settings and customizations that ten months of usage of my iPad mini has entailed.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this problem? Will an impending iOS 8.1 update correct this issue? Thanks in advance for any replies.I am heaving the same problem but in this case is rather exemptuated; i live in dubai and in order to use facetime i need a vpn service which i regularly use with facetime and Skype through my ipad mini retina display 2013; the problem started after i upgraded to iOS 8 and then it got worst after the 8.01 and then the 8.02 upgrade, it claimed to fix some bugs but unfortunately it worsen my performance; when i set the vpn on and then use the ipad it constantly shows a grey screen with the words "Poor Coneectivity" and it remains that way for the whole conversation, it is gruesome, i did reset my device and to make matters worse it didn't want to download all my apps from either my itunes nor through my iCloud backup, it was from bad to worse, after i got that settled it still remained the same "poor connectivity" issues as well as the wifi dropping as well as the data, and it claimed that my data and wifi were off when it wasn't.
At first i thought something is not right, not even the iOS 7 did this when it first came out; and today i realised that when i picked up my ipad it was frozen sideways as if i tilted it (when read or watch videos for a better perspective) and i noticed that the lock rotation icon was not turned on and it was locked in that sideways position; i had to reset the ipad and then it started to work again fine except for the facetime, which by the way bluetooth also gives me issues.
the only way i could verify my ipad's status was for me to use my iphone 6's facetime and it worked fine, the tilting the audio as well as the bluetooth; the only issue my iphone 6 gave me was that the wifi and data would suddenly come out asking me to connect to a wifi or turn on data for facetime use etc and it would try to reconnect; which is the same issue that a lot of people are facing with the ios8 upgrade and the latter upgrades were said to fix that particular issue but it didn't.
i am worried and i don't know if my ipad is going through hardware issues or its only the iOS setbacks that came with the upgrade, any ideas, thank you. -
My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!
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 drooping 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
