Issue with available space on an iPad Mini

My iPad Mini has less than 1GB of apps on it, however on the sync page it shows 5GB of apps. I am guessing I need to restore the iPad? If I restore from an iCloud backup, what are the odds that the problem will remain? Any suggestions on what may be going on? BTW, this mini syncs to a Toshiba PC.

Yes - you can take it into the store so they can take a look at it. Not sure about the exchange part. I'm thinking that if they determine what the issue is right then and there, that they would replace it if they have a replacement available. I only did the exchange by mail because the problem was diagnosed as "unfixable" by the Apple Support person that I was working with on the phone. (also, my Apple Store is over an hour away, so was easier by mail - the replacement and return were all done at no cost to me....)
Tell your Sis not to feel bad. As you have already pointed out, Apple products are very reliable, well-made products. They are, however, full of lots of electronics, chips, wires, etc. Considering the complex makeup of these little miracles of wonderment, it shouldn't be surprising that once in a blue moon, something is just not going to be perfect. No one's fault, just the nature of the beast....all will be well in the end, most assuredly!
Best of luck, and wishing you many happy iPad days to come!
Cheers,
GB

iOS device backups are stored in your iTunes library.
Move your iTunes library to an external drive.

Is there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly?

Greetings everybody,
I have run into a peculiar problem with the Safari browser on mobile platforms (IPad, IPod, IPhone) which I hope I can find a solution for in this community.
I just launched a new website where I sell products with certain variations, for example please view this link: http://www.finerribbon.com/aegean-single-face-satin-ribbon.html
On this particular product, the product variants are supposed to work in such a way where:
If you select the value "1/8" from the "Choose Ribbon Width" field
THEN
The only options active and available to choose from in the "Choose Roll Size" field should be: 500 Yds, 20 Yds & Sample Swatch
Now, if we browse to the above link in Safari using a desktop or a laptop, there are no problems at all, but if we browse to the above link using an IPhone or an Ipad, then we have a problem where all the options are available regardless of the values chosen, basically the above functonality does not work.
I was told that there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly, is this true? Can anyone advise me if there is a solution to this problem? I would sincerely apperciate it.
Thank you very much for your time and help!

I do see on my iPad what you are rreferring to. But you shoudl get the feedback you need in the developer forum.

No, unless you choose to buy an iPad with more capacity.

HT5521 I have a lightning to usb cable which is 2m in length. Is there any known issues with trying to recharge an iPad 4 with this longer length. It seems to me it is taking much longer than a 1m cord to recharge.

Axel,
I'm afraid a new SSD won't be different from your bad USB stick. I had similar issues over USB with both a (no-brand) stick and TWO 64gb Kingston SSDNow's (running Kubuntu 12.04 with Kernel 3.11, ia_64): it all runs exceptionally well (wanna know how it feels like booting in 5 sec?) for a few days - then suddenly you find yourself facing that dreaded (initramfs) prompt. You ask yourself: why? Did I upgrade grub lately? Did I upgrade the Kernel? I don't recall so. Ok, let's fix this... insert favorite live cd, boot, fsck...what???? THOUSANDS of errors??? Hundreds of files and directories corrupted, and the system is unusable - Reinstall everything from scratch onto another drive.
Rinse and repeat: did this 3 times. Then I found this analysis:
http://lkcl.net/reports/ssd_analysis.html
I also suspect USB power interrupts more abruptly than SATA power, at shutdown - basically aggravating any power interruption damages. So now I'm going to:
- buy an Intel S3500!
- add commit=1 to my mount options in /etc/fstab
- edit shutdown procedure to add a 5-10 sec pause after unmounting drives.
Just my two cents.

Hi Apple! I am having a few problems with my 6 month old iPad mini (ios 7.1.1). I am using my iPad and then some time later it just restars! Don't know why and it just keeps doing it! Please fix or if I restore my iPad will it do any good? Thank you

Plug your iPad into your computer, open iTunes, and click Restore. This will reset your iPad to factory settings, so make sure everything important is stored safely. Once the restore is complete, do NOT restore from your backup.
If you still have problems, take the iPad to the Apple Store or another AASP (Apple Authorised Service Provider). If you're still within warranty, any service will be of no cost. Check your serial number here or find your receipt.
Hope I've helped!
PS: This is a peer-to-peer forum. Apple generally doesn't pay attention here.

Watching video on tv with rca jacks using a ipad mini

Just wondering what I would need to watch video on my tv with rca inputs. I have an older tv so I don't have hdmi. Keep in mind I have an ipad mini, so I have the lightning charger, i.e. small plug in to ipad. Thanks.

Yes we are talking about the same thing I believe. Look at this http://store.apple.com/au/product/MC748ZM/A/apple-composite-av-cable?fnode=3a
This should be available in your store as well. Then you just need the lightning/30 pin adapter.
You might find another adapter to suit on ebay.

Any suggestions on how to fix installation issues with iPhoto & iMovie on used Mac mini?

I bought a used, mid 2011, mac min. The selller deauthorized all his applications and resotred it to factory settings for me. When I received it, I added myself as an administrator and deleted the dummy user the seller had created after restoring the OS. The first thing I wanted to do was install applications I already have on my iMac (also running OSX Lion). It would not install iPhoto or iMovie. It said these applications were assigned to a different apple id, the previous owner. I decided to erase the hard drive and reinstall Lion myself. I ran into some snags (due to my internet connection) and had to use recovery thumb drive, but it worked.
I successfully re-installed Lion on the newly formatted hard drive.
I still cannot install iPhoto and iMovie. It just give me an error now. Couriously, it installed Garage Band just fine. I haven't had any other issues with other applications I purchased on my other iMac.
Anyone have any suggestions, besides purchasing iPhoto and iMovie on the mac mini?

Ethernet cord connected to the router solved it. This is exactly what I had to do when I reinstalled the operating system. For some reason my wireless internet is highly inreliable. It drops out constantly. I've always had my iMac hard wired to the router, but I'll have to figure out a fix for this Mac mini. I can't have a 30ft ethernet cord running through the middle of my basement. Thanks.

Issues with Photo orientation after syncing IPad

Just wondering if anyone has had issues with the ipad changing the orientation of photos following syncing ipad with itunes. What I have been experiencing is that although the photo is in portrait orientation in iphoto on the imac, this same photo after syncing of the ipad with itunes on this same imac machine, the photo when opened up on the ipad is in landscape orientation. Have consulted with senior advisors at apple but not sure if this is an iphoto problem or an itunes/ipad sync problem? seems to me that whatever the orientation of the photo is in iphoto, that when you sync the ipad the photo should transfer with the same orientation. anyone else having this problem?

There have been several posts here and on the iphone site about this.
The jury is still out what the fix will be. Some posts say it's a problem with the metadata and the orientation data contained there-in. I can not confirm that.
I do know that when I take a landscape screen snap, the orientation is wrong when I email or upload the photo to my computer.

Are there known issues with App Store crashing on iPad?

Are there known issues with App Store crashing when trying to update apps on iPad 2 with ios6?

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

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 works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

But why is it so , when we have a sim card with phone no on it , why apple has made such a worst decision ?
I belive if apple have to compete with all android devices over there it has to atleast think of this feature (not external SD ) for the sake of getting huge customers.
Only Apple would know why they have made that particular decision and they have not said. It doesn't seem to be hurting their quest for "getting huge customers".

I have purchased additional iCloud space. It shows I still have space, however my iPad mini shows I don't have enough space for the update for ios7. My photos are in the cloud, I guess, so why don't I have enough space?

If I delete photos on my iPad mini, can I still see them in iCloud storage? How do I free up more space on my iPad without removing photos?

If you delete photos from your iPad, they will also be deleted from iCloud and you'll lose them. Also, having additional iCloud space won't give you any more space on your device. You can't move any data to iCloud and delete it from your device. All you iCloud data is also on you device, and if you delete it from your device, it is also deleted from iCloud.
One option to free up space for the update is to delete the music from your iPad, then sync it back using iTunes after you update. (You can delete it all by going to Settings>General>Usage, wait for the apps list to open, then tap Music>Edit, then tap next to All Music.)
Also, if you purchsed the iCloud storage upgrade in the last 15 days thinking you chould use it to free up space on your iPad, you can call the Apple online store for your country and get a refund (1-800-MY-APPLE in the U.S. and Canada.)

HT4759 I am using Windows 7 Ultimate OS which is a upgarde from Vista on my laptop with Microsoft Office 2003. I am trying to use ICloud with an IPhone 5 and IPad mini to stream photos but can't do this with my laptop or devices using my Three network. Wh

Can i use my laptop which is running Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade from Vista to stream photos using ICloud. The outlook programme used is 2003 and i my devices are IPad mini and IPhone 5. My problem is that i able to drag pictures into ICloud for it to send to my devices but nothing happens. Why?
I am grateful for any advice.

A hard drive if it has failed will sometimes allow you to boot into windows but may not work completely (Eg: In a scenario, where system partition ;where windows is installed works fine but logical partition of hard drive has gone bad).
On certain conditions, if the hard drive is on verge of failure may/may not respond completely. I would suggest you to run a diagnostics using Seagate Seatools which works on any hard drive irrespective of manufacturer to actually confirm if your hard drive has failed.
Also, any hard drive can fail in spite of it been 1yr old or 1day old as its all manufactured in bulk and most of it comes from China
