IPad mini video issues

I just bought my first Apple product.. Not a good experience so far.. I purchased an iPad Mini so that I can record some videos then upload them to my PC to do some video editing. At work we have an iPad Air and it works great every time! When I do the same process with my mini the video has really bad lag. It is so bad that it's not usable what so ever. (Only lags on the computer I have been using for editing for the past 2 months with no issues, not on the device itself).
The iPad has version 7.0.4  Any suggestions? 
I have read all the other forums about these similar problems and all I ever here is do a hard reset, then do a restore.. so I did them both even though this is a brand new device, but nothing works. I even when into the Apple store and told them so they swapped it out for another one.. same problem..

Just to make it a little more clear in case it will help anyone help me a bit more:
At work we use an iPad Air to record, from there it automatically syncs everything on the camera roll to our dropbox account > I then download it from dropbox to my PC > Put the video into my editing software, Camtasia 8 and do my editing to the video with no problem.
In my situation with this new Mini I am following the exact same process and when I get the video to Camtasia 8 it is all laggy..  But yet the iPad Air videos are still fine.
I tried to just plug the Mini in to the PC with the USB cable and upload it that way without dropbox in the middle.. made no difference.
I was told that the camera is the same on both devices so there should be no issue.
Any other help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Ipad mini syncing issues with itunes : (x) items could not be synced

    I'm using ipad mini (non retina) 16GB with itunes 11.2.2.3. I had downloaded some games from itunes like asphalt 8, GT racing 2, infinity blade, real racing 3, dead trigger 2, and apps like garageband. When i tried to sync these games with my ipad. everything happened normally like
    syncing apps to 'superhornet's ipad' (step 6 of 6)
    copying 1 of 8: asphalt 8
    and later 'finished syncing'
    but after syncing is finished on itunes. A message appears on the ipad saying '14 items could not be synced. see itunes for more information'
    there is no message in the itunes that would tell what issue happened here.
    Due to this, the games i mentioned above does not get installed on my ipad. all i get is their greyed out icons which shows their name below them, when i touch any of those greyed icons they start showing 'installing' which never really completes.
    I have also tried to install apps by ifunbox, but it showed some error when i tried to sync those games.
    This issue doesn't happen with all the games. I had also downloaded games like 'the sandbox, ACR drift, shadow gun and they were installed without any issues.
    I had never played any game on my ipad. so far i had only used it as an ebook reader, video player and internet browser. so i have no idea if this problem existed before.
    and yes my computer is authorized, and i successfully sync all videos, music, ebooks with it.
    my PC's specs:
    AMD phenom II X4 B25
    4GB RAM DDR3 133MHz
    AMD radeon HD6770 1GB GDDR5
    Gigabyte GA78LMT-S2P
    my ipad is running iOS 7.1
    and itunes version is 11.2.2.3 (updated yesterday expecting it would solve the issues)
    I would appreciate if anyone could help me with this

    Found another thread with a few possible solutions. The one that worked for me was to delete the ipod photo cache in the "Pictures" folder. Here's the thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3390697

  • IPad mini wifi issues

    hey guys.
    hopefully someone can help me out here. I have an iPad mini that I've had for a year now. Up until about 3 months ago everything was working fine,  now for some reason my iPad intermittently disconnects from wifi while streaming.
    a little about my situation. My only source of internet is via my cell phones mobile hotspot. (Droid bionic) The only time I have issues with the wifi connection is when I'm trying to steam video Via netflix, html5, dolphin browser etc.  only video stream that doesn't seem affected is youtube.
    now I've been searching online since this started happening and have come under the impression that this is a common issue hat no one seems to know how to fix. Is that true? I've done all the quick fixes ie: turn off wifi, turn off Bluetooth, reset hotspot settings etc. etc.
    the only way I can get wifi to reconnect is if I manually go into settings turn off wifi and turn it back on. (On ipad)
    ive ive gone as far as doing a hard reset on my phone thinking that was the problem.  All to no avail.  I also operTe my lapto off my phone so I know the connection there works just fine.
    Does  anyone know of a fix for this? It's kind of a pain but recently it has been happening more and more frequently and is starting to get rather obnoxious.
    please let me know if you know how to take care of this. Thanks!

    This is a widespread problem with the Mini but don't get misdirected into thinking that it's a router issue.
    it isn't.
    Apple don't appear to be taking ownership of this issue as it would open the floodgates and impact on:
    1. The brand
    2. The bottom line
    so we are stuck looking at some spurious solutions, many of which are red herrings.
    if Apple could supply a patch to fix this problem that would make sense but this is above my pay grade.
    II'm sure you have, but google this again and you'll see the scale of user disenfranchisement over this problem!

  • IPad Mini video to analogue problem

    I connect my iPad Mini to my Edirol V4 video mixer via the lightning VGA adapter and a scan converter to make the video signal analogue, but the resulting image is too narrow, like the pixel aspect ratio is wrong. A square will look like a tall rectangle once it reaches my mixer. I use the same method to connect my MacBook Pro via the Thunderbolt output with no problems. Is this an iPad issue, or do I need a better scan converter? The one I've got is this: http://www.avtoolbox.co.uk/avt3155.shtml.
    When I connect the iPad Mini directly to my projector via the VGA adapter and VGA cable it all looks fine, so is my scan converter to blame?
    I really hope someone knows about this, I know it's a bit... old school and luddite! But until digital HD video mixers come down in price I'm stuck with good old analogue equipment for a good while yet, and I'm certainly not alone.

  • Use iPod Touch 4th gen iTunes backup to setup a new iPad Mini 1 - issues

    Hi all,
    I've just used my Pod Touch 4th gen iTunes backup to setup a new iPad Mini 1 but none of the apps were installed on the iPad mini. Only the default apps are installed.
    None of the photos from the camera roll were installed either, apart from a few 'screen shots' I have taken.
    iPod Touch is iOS 6.1.6 and the iPad mini is 8.1
    There was a warning advising that some of the apps in the iPod backup might not be compatible with the iPad.
    If it makes a difference, I'm using one Apple ID for the App store and another one for iCloud. When I was prompted for the Apple ID during setup on the Mini, I entered the iCloud ID.
    Interestingly, when I went into the App store on the Mini it showed the ID I use for that rather than the iCloud one, which seemed good.
    Is this what I should expect to happen in this situation or am I doing something wrong ?
    Many thanks. Mark

    I've managed to get the apps loaded without having to do it manualy !! :-)
    It was a case of RTFM - I forgot to do a 'Sync' after restoring the 4G's iTunes backup into the iPad.
    Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support
    For some unknown reason, the Camera Roll images and Videos still weren't restored to the new device.
    This is not too much of an issue because I've exported them out of the 4G using the awesome 'Photo Sync' app. Despite it's name it actually does an 'export'and not a sync, which I think makes image management easier on the PC side

  • IPad mini sound issues

    The sound in my iPad mini has gone noisy after I updated to iOS 7.0.2. Is there n issue to solve this? Anyone else facing the same problem?

    There is NO NEED to reset settings nether restore the iPad.
    There are some possibilities for sound problems - most of them are really simple:
    http://youtu.be/SDf1LDcE95Q
    (1min 36sec)
    It covers the basics:
    checking side-switch / mute / "Control Center"
    volume all up
    ...and also the worst cases:
    closing all apps (for rare cases when a single app might render the sound system instable)
    rebooting the iPad
    So, don't get desparete: try the things in the video.
    There are people who reported having forgotten an audio-bluetooth connection activated with a turned-off sound-system or speakers... or forgot Air-Play turned on... so be sure you disengage bluetooth and/or airplay.
    On the 'hardware side', dirty dock connector (30 pin) can make the iPad 'think' it is connected to external audio - if so, cleaning it with a dry toothbrush can fix. Also, moisture in the headphones connector can make the iPad switch to 'headphones' even without headphones connected, making it silent: check if you can hear things with headphones plugged in - if so, try gently inserting and removing headphones a few times and check if you get sound back to iPad's speakers alone.

  • IPad Mini Charge issue and Other

    Alright so here is the deal, A couple of months ago, my apple lightning charge cord was ruined. I have had my iPad Mini for over a year now, so its not like I got it yesterday. I had not had a problem with it with the exception that sometimes videos play the audio normally but the display is like one frame per five seconds. That's besides the point, this morning when I woke up, the battery was at 9% and of course I plugged it in to charge. When I plugged it in, no ding noise to inform me its charging, no little lightning bold near the battery, nothing. nada. zip. I was just about to flip my lid, (Because this is a new charger and no where near as used as the previous) I decided to proceed to my moms room and grab her iPad mini and connect it to my charger. Low and behold, it began to charge. So, I decided, "Ok well maybe there is a connection issue." I took My iPad into her room and connected my iPad to her charger. IT began to charge.
    This is extremely annoying, and I decided to connect my iPad to my computer with her cord, to grab my photos. Thinking ahead of time, to say worst case scenario that I would have to restore it or something. Alright, so I was hesitant to connect my iPad mini to my computer since last time, it put a ungodly amount of apps I had not used since three years ago and since then deleted (From my iPod Touch) along with several photos. After this had happened I had deleted the apps, but when I went to delete the photos it would not allow it. I would select and it would not give me the option to delete. Since, I did connect it to the itunes in my computer it did some funky stuff and then when it asked to back up i said "sure back it up from cloud." Cause why not right. It got about halfway through before it said "Oh there is a problem with your crap." To which I reply "Dude come onnn of all days! I just want to relax and listen to music cause I just upchucked twice and dont feel good." The iPad mini didn't care.
    All joking aside, I've come to the conclusion that there is something a little more wrong with my device other than it wont charge with the charger I had just bought it, even though it had been charging with it for the last couple of months.

    my laptop and my mobile is working,why not ipad mini .......sometimes the name of wifi appers and when i try to enter password of the wifi ,it says sorry unable to join the network ......what is the simple and best solution for this

  • IPad Mini Syncing Issues

    I have an iPad mini with retina display, yesterday I wanted to add some music to my iPad, I've had an iPod before so I think I am reasonably experienced with syncing using iTunes. After launching iTunes it recommended me to update to 11.1, I did so and then rebooted my laptop. Once I had logged back in again I launched iTunes. I plugged in my iPad expecting iTunes with a small bit of delay detect my device and then I would begin syncing. However after waiting a few minutes a window eventually popped up saying it was unable to connect to my device as it had "timed out". I am currently using a Home Share to listen to my music but it's a pain as I have to always have iTunes on.
    Are there any tips out there that can resolve this issue???

    Hey, try the steps below:
    1. Quit iTunes.
    2. Open Finder, and go to wherever your iPhoto library is stored (usually ~/Pictures).
    3. Right-click on the iPhoto Library and select “Show package contents”
    4. Delete the “iPod Photo Cache” folder
    5. Close the finder window
    6. Open iPhoto. It might take some time for it to reload the library, but it’s ok.
    7. When iPhoto finishes loading the library and you can browse your photos, close iPhoto
    8. Open iTunes, goto your device’s Photo tab, and make shure the Sync photos options is UNCHECKED
    9. Sync your device
    10. After the sync finishes, CHECK the sync photo option. It will ask if the photos already in the device should be overwritten. I anserwered yes
    11. Select which photos, events, albums or faces you want to sync,
    12.- Sync your device again, and it should do it, including your photos

  • Brand New iPad Mini WiFi ISSUES

    So I bought my iPad Mini 32gb a week ago and I've been using it eversince with my house's wifi. I recently updated it to iOS 6.1.3 and a couple of days after I started having WiFi issues. So I connect to my wifi and use it as usual, but after 5 minutes of using it the internet stops working eventhough it still shows the 3 bars of internet on the top left corner next to iPad. To fix this I have to turn off my iPad every time. I am trying to see if there is a solution or if I will have to send it to the apple repair center or change it for a new one for 40 bucks. I really need internet on it so please help. ( IT IS URGENT.)

    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 droping 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

  • New iPad Mini with Issues Downloading over wifi

    First, I have a brand new iPad Mini (1 day old), 16 GB Wifi. Second, I did a restore from iCloud Backup and this worked fairly well. But now, if I try to download any apps (new or previously purchased) after I sign in with my password, they either stall during the download process or don't download/install at all. I have checked the internet connection (wifi) at home (6 to 10 MB download) and at work (25 to 45 MB download). Third, I do not have any problems getting to any web sites through Safari or accessing content through other apps like CNN, Zite, or USA Today.

    Update... I can't watch any streaming video either.

  • IPad mini backlight issues after digitizer replacement

    I recently replaced the digitizer on my 1st gen iPad mini, and after reassembly, I'm havering issues with the backlight. Please have a look at my photo and let me know what the issue may be.
    Thanks a lot,
    Dave

    I guess I should have mentioned before that this is my second time replacing it. The first time there was a faulty digitizer and the home button wouldn't work. But the touch screen DID work. Now its flipped, my second time around fixing it the home button works fine and the touchscreen is unresponsive. I thought it might have some damage from being dropped but the touch screen worked before. So I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong or if its something i can fix. Thanks

  • Ipad Mini Connection Issues on 2.4Ghz

    My Ipad Mini seemed to be working fine across all wifi networks for the first week or so, but recently I've found it either won't connect at all or stay connected for long on networks running 2.4Ghz routers.
    I called Apple support and took it into the Apple store, but they weren't able to tell what was wrong because it connected to their wifi right away.
    I'm convinced it has to be an issue specific to 2.4gHz networks.
    I have no problems with wifi connectivity on my parent's 5g network, but if I attempt to switch to the 2.4ghz I get the same "Unable to connect error" that I recieve from all the other places I'm having problems. I've read conflicting reports about what is causing this issue, but I'm just about ready to give up on this thing and take it back.
    Anyone else having this problem or know of a solution?

    I have had the same problem with the mini ( no connectivity on 2.4 ghz, but OK on 5.0 ghz) and convinced the folks at the Apple store to replace it. The Apple store network in this area is only 5.0 ghz, and I had to use the adjoining 2.4 ghz department store network to convince them that the mini radio was at fault. We have five ipads in the family, and the mini is the only unit to display this problem. It  appears to be a hardware fault, but all the advice on this forum relates to software resetting of various forms and that did not solve the problem for me. Try the Apple store again, as replacement may be the only answer.

  • IPad mini region issues?

    Yo,
    I have been searching for this and I only found question about this of years ago, so I decided to make a discussion about it. I am going on vacation to USA and I'm planning to buy an iPad mini there.
    I got a few wuestions:
    1. I live in Europe. Is it possible to setup the device in my language (dutch)?
    2. Can I download apps directly to my iPad?
    3. If so, can I get access to the Dutch apple store? (I think so cause I can access American app stores too)
    4. Can I download any european/dutch apps?
    5. Aside from not being able to register my iPad, will tuere be any other issues?
    Thanks :)

    Here are some answers I hope may help you for some of your questions:
    1) When you first purchase a device it will have you go through a set-up assistant. One of the first questions will ask you what language you would like for your iPad; you would be able to select dutch as language.
    2)Yes you can download app directly through your iPad on the App store that comes pre-installed on the device.
    3)To access Dutch app store you will want to change your account settings and change the region. To do this:
    Tap Settings on the Home screen.
    Tap iTunes & App Stores.
    Tap on your Apple ID. (If you are not signed in, enter your Apple ID and password, and tap Sign In.)
    Tap View Apple ID.
    Enter your Apple ID password.
    Once signed in it will allow you to choose different regions.
    4) You can now download european/dutch apps as long as you have changed the region on your apple ID.  **Note: some apps are only offered in specific regions**
