IPad update and Notes (a question)

I read an earlier post about a user who lost his notes when applying the latest update. I wanted to know if this was the exception, or if it's normal? I'm going to update my wife's iPad and she has a lot of notes that I'd hate to lose. If it does wipe them out, can I restore them from the back up that I'll do before updating? Thank you for your help.

I had a issue with notes, I noticed when I entered multiple email accounts the account with the notes was not set to default. In Settings under Notes it had Yahoo notes as default not mobileMe, I changed it back to the correct account.
You can always pull up your notes prior to syncing and press the Home middle button and the Power button at the same time and snap a picture of the notes. It may take a few tries snapping a picture of your notes if you don't normally snap pictures of your screen.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • Apps downloaded are appearing as "loading" on ipad 2 and not working

    I have downloaded couple of application through iTunes and loaded them to ipad2 64gd wifi 4g. They are appearing as "loading" on ipad 2 and not working. Tried to restore ipad to presious version os and reboot etc. but nothing worked. Can someone help please.

    Check iTunes and see if you have a pending or stalled download in there. If you do, finish that download or delete it if you can. If you can't finish or delete the download on the iPad, do it in iTunes on your computer and then sync the iPad. Then go back to the apps and see if they will download.
    If that doesn't work or if that was not the problem, go to Settings>Store >Apple ID, tap your ID and sign out. Then reboot the iPad, Reboot 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.
    Then go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if the apps will update.

  • Caching service only works for OS X updates and not for Apps

    Hello,
    It seems that my OS X Server Caching service only works for Apple OS X Software Updates (in Mac App Store updates, when the icon of Mountain Lion appears). I see it in my logs in verbose mode when I download an Apple OS X Software Updates and not when I download an app in Mac Appstore.
    So I'm sure my Caching service works but not for all downloads.
    Why ? What's wrong with my server ?
    I read in some blogs that Caching Server can work for iOS devices appstore too. I try to download some apps with my iphone but nothing happens in logs ...
    Can somebody help me about the Caching Server ?
    Thank you.

    I am with chugues http://www.apple.com/ios/business/
    Caching Server 2 supports iOS 7.
    By caching purchased content and software updates on a local Mac running OS X Mavericks Server, Caching Server 2 speeds up the download and delivery of content through the App Store, Mac App Store, iTunes Store and iBookstore. Your users get faster downloads of content and updates to their iOS devices directly over your corporate network.
    Shows iOS updates and et al. Why is this feature not on yet?

    If it scare y ou then take the machien back and ask the Apple Store to do this for you. What has probably filled your computer is large libraries such as music,  photos and movies. Apple explains how to move those libraries to an external HD. Please read:

  • I've downloaded the 5.0 update and not all the new features are there.  Just the news stand, reminders and videos.  I double checked on the update and it says it's up to date.  What should I do now?

    I've downloaded the new 5.0 update and not all the new features are there.  Just the newsstand, reminders and videos icons plus icloud.  Everything else is the same as before.  What should I do now?  It says I have the latest update.  ???

    Hummmm, you might not be missing anything... From what I understand, really the only new visible add-on apps type programs are Newstand and Reminders. The Notification Center seems to be about how your info and alerts are pushed to your screen and you control that thru the phone settings>General>Notifications, the panel is accessed by swiping downward from the top of your screen. Weird I know, should be more obvious. Enjoy!
    Don't forget, you can now use the volume button on the side of your phone to take photos. I really like this!

  • I have collected alot of music over the years and the new update will delete all my music.  I have puchased a new computer about a year ago so the previous music that I have is not available.  Is there anyway to get the update and not lose all my music

    I have collected alot of music over the past couple years and the new update for the itouch says that it will erase all music and videos on the ipod.  Is there anyway to do the update and not lose all my music or is there a way to take all the music off my ipod and store it on my computer to put back on after the update?  Any help

    ... I have had numerous computers over the past years
    Let me guess, you have had numerous Windows computers, all of which crashed or became worthless virus-ridden junk. Happens every day, yet people think Macs are expensive.
    Anyway, you are going to need the assistance of third party utilities to extract your iPod Touch's content. See wjosten's procedure here:

  • Can't upgrade my ipad2 to ios5 .. itunes says ipad update server not found

    I have my main desktop I use for setting up my new iPad2.  Syncs fine, but when I tried to update to ios5, keep getting message that ipad update server is not available, check internet connection.  Itunes sees the internet, because it allows me to connect to the istore .. etc. Changed cables, I have tried it with firewall on, and firewall off .. makes no difference.  The test shows no connection, but you can see by the diagnostics that it did connect.
    PC is XP Pro,
    I could connect fine from my laptop, working on same home network, however if I upgrade, it will dump all my apps .. I don't want to lose everything.
    Is there a way to unsync my desktop, then sync with my laptop instead, backup, then do the update from my laptop?

  • IOS 7 App Store showing old updates / showing updates and not letting me install

    I noticed two issues with the iOS 7 App Store starting last night.  I'm not sure if it's a temporary issue, since the issue seems to be server-side on Apple's part, or if it's a long-term issue. 
    I am running iOS 7.0.2 on an iPhone 5s.  I do not have automatic updates for apps turned on (I like checking what an app is updating before installing it).  I have tried force quitting the App Store app and restarted my iPhone.
    The first thing I noticed last night was that the App Store showed an update for Hulu Plus on my iPhone but wouldn't let me install it.  On my iPad (3rd-gen) running iOS 7, it let me install it.  This morning, it let me install it.  After, I noticed another badge on my App Store app icon with a "1", and it said there was an update for 94 Seconds, but wouldn't let me install it either.  Then when I expanded the details, I noticed the date on it was from July 30, 2013.  I already had that update installed over 2 months ago.  Screenshots for that issue are below.
    Is anhyone else experiencing anything similar?  Any solutions?

    Thanks for the quick response.
    I do indeed seem to recall that happening with an app previously. 
    However, this time it was two apps (Google and Tivo).  I figured they'd get flushed out when more updates (for other apps) hit the App Store. However, when that happened just now, while it did show "update" for those old updates instead of "open", I could not select "update all" up top and had to press update next to each of the (now 4) apps.  The real issue though is that it (of course) can't further update Google and Tivo and gets stuck.  So I can't update any of my apps now.
    When I went back into App Store I then got the blank screen that shows nothing under updates but the "Purchased" slider up top.  I thus had to reboot.  I can get back into the App Store, and got an error regarding the Tivo update not being available (this was a Jan 10 or so update that had already been installed), but there it still sits in the updates.  Interestingly, Google did "update" and fall off the badge indicator.  I selected only my true/new updates, so now I'm just stuck with a false Tivo update/badge.
    I should add that I am on 7.0.4.
    EDIT: Tivo "updated" after the reboot too.  So, bottom line is that you're (I'm) stuck with the false updates until a real update comes through, and then I have to go through that song and dance to clear out the false flags.

  • Pdf files or corrupted on ipad 1 and not on ipad 2

    Hello,
    I have an ipad 1 and ipad 2. Both with the same iOS and the same apps.
    Since recently when I upload pdf files to the devices the ipad one always doesn't open them correctly (goodreader, iBooks and Adobe)
    The Ipad has no problem with opening the files.
    Any idea what this could be?
    Not sure if related same thing for movie files no problem ipad 2, incorrect for ipad 1 is this something different?
    Thanks in advance for response,
    Wouter

    Can't answer your question but as an interim measure, if you are desperate, put your photos on to your computer (if you use one!) and then sync them to the iPad.
