Is there any solution to the message delay for iPads and iPods?

My bf and I are having problems with a delay in receiving messages between us. We both have quality Internet, but the messages will be delayed sometimes from a few minutes, hours to even a day later... Is there any solution/fix?

Hey TKat88,
Thanks for the question. The following article will provide the most relevant troubleshooting information for iMessage:

You'll also want to check that both devices are using separate Apple ID's, as this would cause problems as well.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Is there any solution to the colon translation bug?

Mac OS X has reserved characters that cannot be used in file or folder names. One of them is the colon: It is used by the operating system in paths to designated separate directories and files, exactly as Microsoft uses the backslash character for the same purposed.
However, Mac OS X is 'supposed' to translate colons to another character when saving files from within an application or the Mac OS X Save dialog. The typical translation is to forward slash or dash. For example, "Bug: Colon Translation" becomes "Bug- Colon Translation". Of if I am saving a web page to a PDF, the source name of an article with this title would change to "Bug/ Colon Translation".
The bug: The above colon translation process does NOT work reliably in the Mac OS X Save Dialog with reliability. I guestimate that 95% of the time the translation of colons in source titles does NOT work. Using the example of translating a web article title to a PDF saved file, the results are typically the following: "Untitled.pdf". This forces the user to copy then paste in the actual title of the article. THEN, 100% of the time, the colon translation actually works. For example, if I have a web article titled "Bug: Colon Translation", it is extremely rare for that title to be anything but BLOCKED, resulting in 'Untitled.PDF' as the resulting title in the dialog box. When I then copy and paste the source title into the title area, replacing 'Untitled', I get: "Bug- Colon Translation".
What will happen perhaps 5% of the time: The colon translation of the source title will actually work. When this occurs, using my example above, the OS provides the following translation: "Bug/ Colon Translation". Note that when it works in this situation I get a forward slash, not a dash.
I research, read and save web articles all day long. A lot of articles use colons. I have to contend with this bug all day long every day. This bug is many years old. I can't recall when it started. But it certainly has been consistent in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, 10.6 Snow Leopard and now 10.7 Lion. Three versions of Lion are enough for me to realize that Apple is either oblivious to this bug or they don't care.
Clearly, the colon translation CAN work. It is MEANT to work. No one can dispute that. The user is NOT supposed to be messed over with 'Untitled.PDF' files. They are MEANT to have actual PDF file titles, as seen in our example above.
Therefore the question:
Is there any solution to the colon translation bug?
It is incredibly annoying.

My guess is they don't care. Most likely they're illiterate and don't know what a colon is for. They probably think it's a little-used character. Remember: these are the people who don't know the difference between "deprecate" and "depreciate".
I have the same colon problem as you do. But it's not the biggest problem I have encountered in Lion. If it was only that I'd be Mr. Delighted with Lion. There's worse than having a colon - uh - that won't cooperate. A lot worse, in Lion.

I accidenttly deleted my notes and the icloud cleared all the message from both ipad and iphone ...How can i get it back?? If I can ??

Your notes should be stored in your backup, so if you have backed up the iPad and that backup does contain those notes that you deleted, you can try restoring from your backup. If you haven't backed up the iPad since you created those notes, they are gone.
If you backup with iCloud only, restoring from backup involves erasing the device and then going through the setup all over again and finally restoring from the iCloud backup. This article explains the process quite clearly.
http://gigaom.com/apple/ios-101-set-up-and-restore-from-icloud-backup/
If you backup with iTunes, connect the iPad to your computer, launch iTunes and right click on the device name on the left and select - Restore from Backup. But before you do that .... turn off auto sync in iTunes - without connecting the iPad - launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box at the bottom of that window in order to turn off auto sync.
Email messages are not stored in your backups.

Is there any way to back up a preconfigured iPad and deploy to new iPads using Configurator??

To clarify, we have about 100 ipads deployed in our district and lots more on the way. We had just used iTunes in the past to backup one master device with the apps and restored on the remaining sets of iPads. Obviously we wanted a simpler way to manage this as we are getting a lot more iPads coming in for use in the different schools. We got a MDM solution (Casper) and started using Configurator.
We are running the latest of Configurator (1.4.2) and IOS (7.0.4).
From what I have read (and a lot at that) I know that there are numerous issues with this setup (hopefully addressed very soon)
Here is my question:
Is it possible to take an already deployed device, loaded with apps (paid and free), back it up in Configurator, and deploy it to other iPads and still get all the apps to come down along with the restore?
Apparently this was possible in the past, I am just wondering if I am missing something. Any help or suggestions on how you are doing it would be very helpful
Oh, and to clarify, we are using VPP for the apps, just not managing them any where at this time, haven't decided the best tool for that, maybe casper maybe configurator, but we are compliant, only using the same quantity of apps that we have purchased.
Thanks
Edit: spelling error

I've heard if you contact your apple rep, Apple may restore your vpp codes so you can move to an MDM.

Are there any games just like GTA 3 for iPad?

I want the driving and graphics of GTA 3, all I want more is a cruise control setting for the cars. Does anyone know of any that match my description?

Not yet, but my absolute favorite game for this is Saints Row 2 for PS3. Is there anything like that games's driving controls for iPad?

Are there any problems saving files in Pages for iPad?

I have a new iPad, and I need to chose a wordprocessing App. Friends have advised me that there may be a difficulty saving files from Pages. If so then is there a recommendation for a different wordprocessing App ?

I use Pages every day on my iPad. I have had great success with it.
I use it with iCloud, and I use it on my Mac. I have created documents on the Mac, saved them to iCloud, opened them on the iPad, edited them there, saved that back to iCloud, opened them in the IOS Beta in iCloud.com, downloaded them to my Mac at work, and so on and so on...
I have used Pages every way that you can possibly use it with iCloud, iCloud.com, and locally on my Macs. No problems whatsoever.
Pages documents are saved automatically on the iPad as are all documents in all apps - at least as afar as I know. You do not have to actually save them on your own... no Save As... no Save commands at all in tha app. They are saved automatically with the last set of edits that you make in place.

Need to replace the screen on my ipad and ipod, how to do without having to pay a fortune?

Do not refuse to pay, but pay practically the value of another product, and all the expenses with displacement, because in my state do not have a service that does this serviço.isso I do not accept. here is my outrage and disappointment. Another alternative is that you give me to pay for authorized repair, as I do to lose the warranty? this is not an option. If the guarantee is difficult and costly, with no guarantee then ...

The standard 1-year Apple Care warranty only covers defects in materials and workmanship, not damage due to accidents.
Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)
iPad model
Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
iPad mini
$219
iPad 3rd, 4th generation
$299
iPad 2, iPad
$249
A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad

Unable to use the same ID for ipad and iphone

When I enter Apple ID and password to install application on Iphone, It is notified that " your password was entered incorrectly", eventhough those ID and password work normally on Ipad. What is the possible problem ?

@Randers4: The thing is, they are the same account. I registered as "elonka" way back when, and then the login changed to the email address, "[email protected]" at some point. The password is the same. But when my phone gets into this odd state, even though I am entering the correct password, it acts as though I have entered an incorrect password.
One other thing that seems to affect it, is whichever app I have most recently made an IAP (In-App Purchase) on. So if I made a purchase as "elonka", then that seems to be the default that shows up when I try to update any other app, and I can't log out from it. Or if I made an in-app purchase as "[email protected]", then that one becomes the default.
It sounds to me like a bug, and that what is needed is for the Store logout to clear both the account name of "what app was recently downloaded" *and* the account name for "what in-app purchase has most recently been made".

Is there any solution to the iPad 2 losing WiFi every 30 minutes or so?

I have a new iPad 2 (64Gb WiFi only) that I purchased about a week ago. The only problem is that every 20 or 30 miutes it looses WiFi connection. To resolve the issue I have to go into settings and either toggle airplane mode or toggle the network on then off. This doesn't have anything to do with sleep mode as it can happen while I am in the middle of using the WiFi successfully and then it just drops all of a sudden and just spins. No other wireless device on my network has this issue. This was also happening before and after the delivery of the magnetic cover so I don't think it is related to the cover. I have a friend that used his Android tab at my house with no problems at all. I see on here that this is a common problem but it looks as if nobody has addressed the issues with any type of solution. My router is a newer ( Roughly a year and a half old) Belkin N router so it's not like I am using out of date hardware and if it was the router then why just the iPad? I Reeeeeealy want to be a big Apple fan here but it's kind of hard with such a frustrating issue.

iOS 5 seems to have fixed it for me so far.
