Ipad mini - sim not registering

I bought the ipad mini wi-fi and cellular model yesterday. I have put the sim in but it says no service. Also tried taking it out and putting in again as well as turning on and off. Any idea what's going on?

Hello Ellie
The next step is resetting the network settings and if that does not work then a restore. Check out the article below for more information.

Bought an iPad mini with AppleCare registered in my name and need to change it to my wife's name - how?

Apple's customer support can certainly do that, but it is not necessary. AppleCare follows the product, not its owner.
If you want to contact Apple use the Contact Us link at the bottom of this page.

OK great info!
I found 2 possible ethernet to USB adapters:
By "Plugable": USB 2.0 to ethernet LAN wired network adapter - seems this will work, but I'll contact Plugable.
2. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter
Easily connect your MacBook Air computer to an Ethernet network with the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. Small and light, it connects to the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air and provides an RJ-45 connector that supports 10/100BASE-T performance. BUT NOT SURE IF THIS WILL WORK ON ANYTHING BUT a MacBook Air…
One person commented:
This little gem used to be the device of choice for adding a second Ethernet interface to a Mac Mini Server and I'd been using one that way for about a year. After doing a software update to 10.6.6 it stopped working. Forewarned is forearmed – it appears that Apple is finally enforcing the MacBook Air system requirement.
Thanks for any additional comments.

Are you attempting to sync music from your iTunes Music Library on your PC?
What options do you have set on the Music Tab for your iPad in iTunes?
What happens when you sync?
Any error messages?

My iPad mini would not connect in order to download an update, I decided to go to original settings, the screen is frozen showing the apple logo and nothing else, it will not respond.

My new iPad mini would not download an update bnor allow access to app store downloads etc, I decided to revert to original factory settings, the screen is now frozen, showing only the Apple logo in white on a black background, it is now frozen, what can I do?

Try a Reset...

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

I have tried back ups and restoring, resetting, and even updating the pages app. And nothing has worked.

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

I have an IPad mini WiFi (not cellular) and an IPhone 5. I use the bluetooth connection between both devices when on the road. I downloaded a navigation system on my IPad using GPS positioning. Is Bluetooth OK to use GPS positioning on the IPad?

You need to connect to iTunes and restore.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
You may need to put the device into recovery mode, this is covered in the link on this page.
Did you back up the device?

My ipad mini is not connecting to the wifi network. I have the correct network and password chosen, but the message I get is that "unable to join". I have reset my ipad and it still says the same thing. What can I do about this.

My iPad mini is not working right on some apps

You can always try to reset your device and see if it helps matters any:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
