Is it okay to clean my ipad screen with alcohol when I have a screen protecter on?

So I was told by my family members to wipe my ipad with alcohol as my screen was dirty. I have also recently found that alcohol wrecks the screen. However, I did have a screen protecter at the time. Is this okay?? Is my screen wrecked/ will be wrecked?

You would need to ask the manufacturer of the screen protector that question. I would not use alcohol on my iPad even with a screen protector, though. A damp (and I do mean damp, not wet) clean cloth should suffice for any cleaning needs. If your screen protector has a substance on it that can't be removed with a damp clean cloth, I'd advise replacing the screen protector, or at least remove it from the iPad before you attempt to use any other cleaners on the protector.
Regards.

Cleaning the iPad Screen

*Microfiber cloth* works great, it requires only a light touch and cleans off all the fingerprints quickly and easily.
I tried eye glass cleaning cloth, liquid cleaner and tissues. The microfiber is 100 times better.

Absolute best way to clean the iPad screen is dry, with the 3M Scotch Brite High Performance Cleaning Cloth. The cloth costs $3-4, but it is a woven microfiber that pulls fingerprints and dust off like nothing else. I've tried a number of different cloths, including those that came with my HD TV, etc. The 3M flat makes 'em feel like using a paper towel (NOT recommended...). And when it gets dirty? Toss it in the washing machine.
I actually went and bought a couple spares - one for the house, one for my briefcase, and one for the office - just so I'd always have the right cloth handy. The iPad is a great device; I'd prefer it not be a great fingerprint display as well.

Is it okay to use my ipad on AC power when it fully carged?

I want to maximize my iPad's battery life and use battery when it is needed.I want to know that whether It is okay to use my ipad on AC power when it fully carged

Because the battery does not overcharge, it shouldn't hurt the battery - but - I don't use my iPad this way for days on end. That sort of defeats the whole portability factor of having a battery powered device like this.
I will leave my iPad on the charger for hours at a time while I am using it - maybe all day long on weekends - and I still get about 10 hours a day out of a full charge. I did this my my original iPad that is 20 months old and the battery is still going strong.

Is it okay to clean your iPod Touch with just a washcloth and clean water?

I was just wondering if cleaning my iPod Touch with just water and a washcloth would be alright. Is there something better to use thats free?

A soft lint-free cloth is all that's recommended and usually all that is necessary. If you have some sort of material on the iPod that you can't get off with just a dry cloth, then you can use a damp - and by "damp" I really do mean damp; if you can squeeze any water out if it, it's too wet - cloth for just that material. It will be up to you to make sure that no liquid gets into the iPod.

Email can take several minutes to download on the new iPad 64 with WiFi. I have an iPad 2, wifi, and another new iPad 8, wifi and neither has the time delay to download email. Please advise.

Email on the new iPad (64) WiFi version can take up to five minutes to download a message. Same message on iPad 2 or new iPad (8) with WiFi are instantaneous. Wondering why and how to correct.

Try quitting the mail app and then relaunch it and see if the emails download correctly.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.

How best to clean the iPad screen?

How can you best, and safest, remove the inevitable smudges off your screen?

The best way I have found to keep my iPad 2 clean is by using a microfiber cloth. I have tried quite a few and the best by far was the Pristine Screens cloth. The other cloths I tried just felt cheep, this one on the other is definitely high quality and lived up to all of the hype. I bought mine on Amazon but they have a website too. Hope this helps! :-)

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You would only need homesharing on your iPad if you want to use the remote app (which is quite handy actually). To be able to use the iPad with the Apple TV, you use AirPlay, but the iPad won't show up in a list on the Apple TV, you send content from the iPad itself.
Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.

Ipad sync with PC when setup now want to sync with other computer

HEllo.
I bought my mom a iPAD 2 and set with her PC and the itunes on her PC.
Now I have the iPAD and need to sysnc with my family accouant.
I can not lose the pictures i took with the ipad.
What do i do ?

Not entirely sure about iPhoto as I don't have a mac, but when syncing from folder(s) only the contents of the most recent sync will be on the iPad - but I assume that iPhoto will be the same and will therefore remove the previous sync before putting the ones on. He also won't be able to copy them off before syncing as you can only do that with photos loaded via the camera connection kit or saved from emails/websties.
This article has some general info on syncing photos http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

Will iPad network with iMac when iOS 5 is downloaded?

I've been waiting for the day when the iPad and iMac recognize each other in order to network or at least share files like iMac and MacBook Pro. Will iOS 5 help with this?

The only info that I'm aware of that has been released about iOS 5 is on this page http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/ . For anything else we'll have to wait until if/when it is announced

I have the original iPad A1337 with 64GB. I have IOS5.1.1 installed. It has wifi and 3G. Applications constantly crash the device. For example; I turn on iBooks, browse for books and it crashes. Games crash too. Any suggestions?

can i read books from ibooks without an internet connection?

Hi there,
You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
Nathan

Cleaning ipad screen

What is the best way to clean an iPad screen?

Soft cloth and a bit of "huff" breath. Lightly does it.
It is NOT recommended what I do, but I use a soft cloth and a tiny spray of spectacle cleaner (which I make from 70% isoprop 30% water). I use a lot of skin cream so it helps.

IPad screen not as smooth

i've been using my iPad2 for around 6 months now. but the screen is kinda sticky. it's not sticky that much but I cannot softly slide my finger on the screen.
i do not use any chemicals or anything as of such to clean my iPad screen other than a soft piece of cloth that came with the Macbook pro. my hand is not oily and if it ever gets, i always wash it.
i wish my fingers slide over it as smooth as the iPhone my brother owns.

Perhaps you do need to clean the screen with a slightly dampened lint-free cloth, rather than just wiping it with just soft cloth.
I just use a damp soft tissue.
