IPad nitpicking

I bought a wi-fi iPad within a few hours of first availability.
IPad rocks. this is the future.
That being said, I shall nitpick.
• When editing a playlist in iPod, the chooser interface is buggy. You inevitably end up with duplicates if you have two albums of the same artist and you add them to a playlist. Then, when the duplicate song(s) play, both have a 'play' icon.
• Tabbed browsing. An option that lets me create a new page - but not go to it immediately - will let me replicate what works best for alternative navigation flows.
• Bluetooth stereo headphones - I'd love it if my headphone next + controls worked.
That is all. I'd love to hear others' nitpicks. I bet someone at Apple sees the thread and adds some bugs to the queue that wouldn't be reported via iTunes and diagnostic reports.
Or maybe not,
- Ash
P. S.
• Can EQ EQ all sound, not just the iPod?
• I hope the Mac speech recognition makes its way to the iPad.

You really need to post these at iPad Feedback: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html to do any good.
Also, it took me two days to find the Setting > Safari > Always Show Bookmarks Bar, which I find a big help in browsing.
While Voice Control isn't implemented yet, some Apps, like the Goole Mobile App, can use voice search and Griffin's iTalk App can be used for voice memos.

Damaged iPad out of the box can't be exchanged. Help!

Hi guys,
Since the new iPad is not officially available in Serbia yet (and yet the new Retina Macbook pro is available) I bought it in Bulgaria. It is a Black 64gb 4g model. However when I brought it home and unpacked the box the upper half of the back of the iPad looked as if it had been sandpapered, it really looked bad. Morever the rubber between the glass and the bezel wasn't aligned properly, it just looked very bad! Trust me I am not nitpicking. The problem is that unlike most people who live in USA, UK, Germany etc. I can't go back to the store and have it exchanged, I can't even call Apple with my telephone because there is no Apple support in my country. I don't feel happy that I have given so much money for a device that looks worse than a used one, especially when I've been struggling to afford it. I am a language professor and I've been planning to use it in my lectures for keynote presentations, as a lesson planner etc.
All the best,
Vlasta

It may or may not have anything to do with Apple. The package could have been opened at the store (or anywhere) before it was sold.

Why does my ipad mini keep glitching. We keeps randomly doing stuff on its own while on not even touching it? I've tried restarting it by holding down lock and home button about a thousand times, it never works. so could you please help?? thanks(:

why does my ipad mini keep glitching!! /:

Your iPhone doesn't require as much power to charge as your iPad needs so there is a possibility that the charge could have a problem even though you were able to charge the phone. If you can try a different power adapter and still have no luck, then the only thing left - IMO - is to contact Apple support and see what they advise.
BTW .... Copied from your first post ...
i then decided to do a reset or restore by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button down.
I'm not trying to be a nitpicker - but what you described is a hard reset and your post gave no indication that you tried a software restore - which I referenced in my post. That's why I suggested the restore.
Many times restoring the iPad to factory settings can help "revive" the device. If you have tried restoring according to the two support articles that I directed you to and still have no success, you are probably out of luck getting any further help on this site. That's all that you can try at this point at least AFAIK.

New Ipad replaced for refurbished?

Hi all, a week or so ago , I got a new Ipad 64gb in black, all was fine for a while, until I saw a miniscule white dot on the lower left side of the screen.
I tried to clean it off, hoping it was some dust or whatnot, alas it didn't come off. Iassumed it was a dead pixel. Later that day I phoned applecare and booked an appointment at my local Apple Store.
The genius that was there was very helpful, stating that indeed it was a fault with the Ipad and not a scratch and would be replaced with a 'new' Ipad. So, off he went and brought a box down which wasn't like the ones you get new Ipads in.
At the time, I took a quick glance over, all looked fine so signed agreeing to erase etc etc and came home. Upon inspection, there are several scuffs to the sides with minor paint chips.
My question is this, can I take this one back, and also, if yes, can I demand for a new Ipad as opposed to a refurbished one. Yes, I'm partly at fault for not checking it out properly, but I'd paid quite alot of money and surely a new one isn't too much to ask is it?
Sorry for lengthy post, and I hope this is the right section.
James

Hi Demo, thankyou for replying. I suppose I don't have an issue with it being refurbished, so long as it actually has no real defects to it.
It has a case and you can't really see the scuffs when its on, however I suppose I was abit taken aback when I wasn't really at fault, and they didn't offer a new one, seeing as I only purchased not to long ago.
I know I'm nitpicking, guess I should've looked it over bit more closely at the store.
Will let you know what the outcome is

Is there a way of getting a "schedule view" in iCal on a mac and on iPad in the same way you can get one on iPhone?

IS there a way to get a schedule view of events on a busy day in iCal on the iPad 2 Air and on the Macbook Pro? I can get this view on an iPhone.

I am paranoid that some untrusted technician is going to make a copy of my music (11,000 tracks) or share some of my personal information (scanned copies of my birth certificate, passport, certificates, photos, etc.) on the web.
If you put your info into the computer and hand it to another, you have to assume they will copy everything.
Why are you putting scanned copies of valuable identity information into a computer than can be hacked, stolen, lost or compromised by a dirty tech?
Have you lost your mind?
Is there a way of finding out what activity has taken place whilst they've had it in their possession?
No. The tech would just deny it if he did, or tell the truth which the answer would be "NO" in either case.
The employer won't ask that sort of questions without solid proof, less they make a enemy of the employee and/or risk being sued for defamation of character.
It's not like they bother to have a team of people watching over his shoulder that he doesn't stick a USB thumb drive of your data into his pocket to take home.
I am paranoid that some untrusted technician is going to make a copy of my music (11,000 tracks)
If it's iTunes music, it has your personal ID embedded into the song files. Most IT techs know this though.
I appreciate any advice you guys can offer.
Too late now, all you can do is not worry about it.
Take your personal info out of the machine and if you need it, burn cd/dvd copies, a few USB thumb drives, Iron Keys or self encrypting external storage drives with key and/or keypad.

How can a family share an iPad, specifically, using email? Seperate account

I know, you can have multiple email accounts. i have 3 on my iphone 4. But if my wife, daughter, and I all use the ipad. Can you set up email to ask for what account to load?
Again, i know you can switch after the fact. I am trying to avoid the scenario where I may see my daughter email, or my wife may see mine. Not that we have anything to hide. But if i order flowers or something, i wouldn't want here to inadvertently see the conf email because ipad defaulted to my account.

Perhaps consider setting your family up with Gmail accounts. Gmail (Google's email service, even though you probably already knew that) is totally free and has an awesome web interface, especially on the iPad. Then each member of your family could log in/out of their Gmail accounts using mobile Safari.

How can I setup a mail-specific passcode/restriction on iPad used by multiple family members?

How can I setup a mail-specific passcode/restriction on iPad used by multiple family members?
Have an Exchange mail account setup and accessible in my mail on iPad... however my kids use it and i would like to restrict them from accessing this specific portion of the device. I tried viewing restriction options and do not see that i can apply a restriction specifically to Mail. Thanks for your help.

Not a feature of iOS. Check the AppStore to see if there are other
mail apps that allow passcode protection.
Or use Safari to log onto your email via a web-based interface and
enter your credentials each time. A bit slower, but the kids will
not know the details to login.

How can I use multiple ipad's on one account without sharing individuals personal email accounts?

Is it possible to have multiple ipads on one account and share info, but also allow the individual users to have personal email that is not seen on the other ipad's? We have all ipads on same icloud account because we all need to see the same ical. It seems like that's the problem. If it IS related to icloud then if we have separate icloud accounts, how would we share the main ical otherwise? Sharing the ical is very important for this business so everyone can access the daily schedule. Of course each user still wants to have private email.
Hope this wasn't too confusing!
Thanks!
Doreen

you could set up the main icloud itunes acount for ical and not have in setup on the devices
and share the calandar with the other itunes accounts on the devices
or only have it on one device
devices have the users indervidual itunes icloud setup
they should be able to access the shared "main" itunes icloud ical account once it's shared
http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-57542557-285/three-methods-for-sharing-an-ic loud-calendar/
if the devices are company owned you could go futher and setup find my iphone on the main itunes account
and not on the user icloud accounts

Cannot send email from promail.ptd in iPad Air

Help, I have deleted the accounts, rebooted the iPad & nothing has worked. My gmail is working fine but these other two from ptd.net cannot send. And, when I try deleting emails, they flood back into the account.

Hi,
Check if you have the Accepted domain settings are correct.
ECP->Mail Flow->Accepted Domains. Make sure that your default domain is the domain which is having the AD name (eg.domain.local)

Cannot send email from ipad?

I can receive, but cannot send emails from my iPad. Always get message that I have wrong user name or password.

Then make sure that the settings are correct in your email account.
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Cannot send email from my IPad Air

I suddenly cannot send email from my IPad Air. Keep getting message that my email recipient
was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. Don't understand what this means as I have been able to send email before.

Paula, in most cases this message appears when you are sending email from a ISP server not in the pop settings and SMTP settings in your email program.
In example if I send out email from my iPad I must be on my own isp's server to send. I have roadrunner but if I send email out using say Verizon's email server I will get a reject notice.
You did not say what email program you are using but if it is hotmail or yahoo or your isp's email in two of these email accounts there are stand alone apps which work much better than the stock email program on the phone.
If you are using road runner or another ISP email you must get the proper Pop3 (incoming) server settings and SMTP (send) settings from your ISP
You can then just go into the Settings-Mail, Contacts and Calendar section and click on the email account and change to the proper settings from your ISP.
You could delete as you were told but why bother when only the sending and receiving settings need to be entered.
If the settings are correct, on an iPhone it tests the settings. If correct send an email. If incorrect you will need the proper settings from your ISP.
It is actually very easy to do.

Cannot send email from new iPad 2 or new iPhone 4s

I have a new ipad2 and a new iPhone 4s. I cannot send email from either. I had an iPad and an android before with no email issues. Phone is Sprint and ipad is Verizon. I have tried using my wifi and have tried turning wifi off. Nothing works. Please help.

I agree, unplug and replug your router, then reset your iPad by holding down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the red power down slider, and wait til you see the silver apple. let it reboot and then try your connection.
Chances are rebooting the router will help. You may also need to talk to cox. They may need to reset something on their end.

Cannot send email from my iPhone or iPad. The server rejects a recepient for no apparent reason. The recipient is not new. This issue happens on reply or reply to all or froward; not a new email. What is happening?

Cannot send email from my iPhone or iPad. The server rejects a recepient for no apparent reason. The recipient is not new. This issue happens on reply or reply to all or froward; not a new email to the same recepient. What is happening?

I talked with a tech today and he said I cloud is having problems which should be resolved shortly.
In the mean time I used the .me smtp server settings which allowed me to send mail.

Cannot send email from iPad & iPhone with Virgin Media

I cannot send emails from my iPad and iPhone. I have a virginmedia.com address and I can receive but just cannot send. A message keeps saying the smpt settings are wrong. However, I have followed the tutorial on Virgin Media web site (this is how I managed to start receiving emails on my devices) but still not sending. I have looked at the settings in my MacBook Pro and all seem to be correct. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong? I had a similar problem when I loaded Microsoft Office 365 for Mac; I had to end up calling Virgin Media (useless) and then Microsoft (useful). Anyhow I have looked at the settings on the Mac and they all seem to correspond with the ipad and iphone but still cannot send emails. V V Frustrated.
Thanks for reading.

Then make sure that the settings are correct in your email account.
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.
