My 128gig ipad air is crackling at mid to high volume

Just got the air on Friday at 8am. Watched three episodes of TV on it, ready to return it! The speaker is crackling horribly at mid to high volume levels.  Any ideas?  Never had a problem with my other 3 iPads.  I'm really dismayed. If yours has this, let me know, or suggestions.  It actually feels like the crackling is palpable while holding the thing.

  • IOS 8 iPad Air Pages App Capitalization Mid-Sentence.

    I have noticed this problem with Pages operating on my iPad Air only now that I have updated to iOS 8. The autocapitalization feature for proper nouns and the beginning of sentences works as usual. My issue is when I replace the cursor in the middle of a sentence or at the end of an unfinished sentence that has no punctuation. Begining with iOS 8, Pages will now capitalize the word I am tying regardless of where I replace the cursor. Let's say I forgot to put the "s" at the end of "pages" and I replace the cursor directly after the "e" in "page". Pages will automatically capitalize my cursor, even though I am at the end of a word mid-sentence, and the result is "pageS". This is incredibly frustrating when going back to correct errors mid-sentence. After each time I correct an error, I return to the end of the incomplete sentence and my cursor is capitalized, even though I am mid-sentence. iOS 7 pages never did this.

    I Have had the same problem, which I posted at Uppercase on when insert text in Pages iOS 8. I'm glad to learn I'm not alone.
    BTW, I have had a capitalization problem with typing in these forums. Note the second word above. Also, if the first word has more than one letter, the second letter is also uppercase. Maybe this is related to the Pages problem in some weird way.

  • 2 Problems with the Ipad Air...midi keyboard and usb microphone

    IN SHORT:
    2 Problems with the Ipad Air...what midi keyboard will connect to the lightning camera connector and what microphone as well?  There seems to be issues with the ipad air not being able to power them.  Has anyone got any devices to work yet?
    IN DEPTH:
    I have a yeti microphone that when I plug in it says its using too much power.  A little samsung go mic I have plugs in find and works but isnt quite what im looking for.  My midi keyboard is not reading...its probably 15yrs old (didnt expect it to work).  I have ordered a usb powered keyboard but im now nervous it may not work if it requires too much power.  Has anyone had any success with a particular model of keybaord?  I saw a youtube video of the CME Xkey in which it was plugged into an ipad that uses the lightning jack, but was unsure if it was the air or a different model.
    Any help is appreciated on this...I love my ipad air and hoping to make it my fully functional music recording device.
    By the way I mostly use garageband

    hey mate
    Yes what I ended up doing is buying a powered usb hub.  They are about 10 dollars or so on amazon.com.   There are tons to choose from.  I use a yeti micrphone now with no issues and a midi keyboard.  You will need the lightning usb adapter too.  You plug the lightning adapter into the ipad and the hub into the adapter then plug all your accessories into the powered hub.  So it works well you just gotta buy an extra piece of equipment.

  • How do you connect a USB MIDI keyboard to iPad Air?

    Hello,
    I can't get my USB keyboards to connect to my iPad Air.  I used to use the camera connection kit with my 1st gen iPad and it worked perfectly.  Now when trying to connect using my camera connector plugged into a lightning to 30 pin adapter with the iPad Air I get no response when trying to use my keyboards with Garageband, etc.  This seems like a step backwards!!!
    Can anyone advise on how to use a USB MIDI keyboard with the iPad Air?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Same problem here...
    I just read on another forum that someone managed to connect a midi device using a simple converter.
    I have a digital piano with the square type USB connector, bought an adapter to convert the iPad Air's ligtning USB cable's USB end to that square connector, plugged it in, GarageBand did not respond to the Midi input.
    on a macbook pro it works ok, but would be nice to use the iPad now that I bought it...

  • Can iPad Air be hooked up to AOC desktop monitor? How? We have older person in home needs larger screen. Thanks.

    Can iPad Air be hooked up to AOC desktop monitor? How? We have older person in home needs larger screen. Thanks.

    YYou can connect with the cables listed above or with an Apple TV device. Keep in mind that and ipad is what it is and was made to be used as it is. I can tell you first hand that what you are trying to do will likely not be of assistance since the ipad is still required as the user interface. Connecting to a larger display maybe fine for watching movies if that's what you have in mind but for overall use the ipad will still have to be used and thus looked at to type and touch. Even with a bt keyboard there are still to many limitations That only a mouse can solve along with a keyboard and display.
    All said, you may be better off looking into, and perhaps using along with the bigger screen, some of the features that can be found in (general-text size) and (general accessibility) settings. Other then that, if you are not mindset on the ipad experience, there are other products on the market that are better suited and more affordable. I have provided care for my mother in law from here 80's to mid 90's. Been there, done that.

  • My Apple iPad air screen stops responding, particularly in safari

    My brand new IPad Air (64Gb) is roving to be less than satisfactory- I have had to hard reset it several times due to non response, usually in Safari. Additionally, I have had to close applications mid use for the same reasons. All indications are it is "alive" and refreshing / processing but it is unresponsive.

    From the document I posted above see this:
    System Requirements
    To see if your Mac works with AirDrop, make sure you’re in the Finder by clicking the desktop (the background area of your screen), or by clicking the Finder icon in the Dock. Then, check to see if AirDrop is listed as an option in the Go menu. If you don't see AirDrop listed, your Mac doesn't support this feature.

  • ITunes crash on iPad Air in landscape - how to fix?

    My brand new iPad Air has an issue - if I open iTunes Store in landscape (how you would watch a film) it crashes. In portrait it does not. If I open in portrait mode and then rotate the iPad to watch a trailer - it crashes.
    Notes:
    Fully updated software.
    I have no other apps running.
    Full reset tried.
    Power off and on tried.
    Reset all settings tried.
    Tried it on my old iPad 3 - same crash occurs.
    I did not restore this new iPad Air from a cloud image it was a clean and factory setting build.
    I have the 128gig Air and have over 100gig free storage.
    I don't know what else to do!
    Help!

    Confirmed that others here have exact same issue - and exact same landscape vs portrait artefact - this is clearly a software bug with the iTunes app in iOS 7.03

  • How do i switch to 7/8 time signature in garageband on ipad air

    How do i switch to 7/8 time signature in garageband on iPad air ?  I can find only 4/4 ,  3/4 and 6/8 . What and if i want to change it to 7/8 any other time signature on Garageband using on iPad Air

    Tim,
    Maybe before you give up on the Korg, you might want to give their own tech help a call. Perhaps it just doesn't do this, but maybe there's a control somewhere, someplace, hidden within that will?
    Another thought - perhaps you might be able to use a 3rd party MIDI mapper to lower the notes by an octave. It's an easy piece of math to subtract an octave from the MIDI data leaving the keyboard before it hits GB.
    Here's a software one I just googled. Don't know if it will work, there are likely others out there that may if this doesn't:

    .. and a hardware mapper I also dredged up in the google:

  • When will ipad air 2 be hitting indian stores??????

    i have been waiting for ipad air 2. if anybody can tell when it will be available in india

    Last Year iPad Air was Launched in US on 1st November, 2013. But it launched in India on 7th December,2013. The Pricing of iPad Air wasn't announced officially till mid-end November.
    This Year, the Pricing of iPad Air 2 was announced on the first day itself, and even the iPhone 6,6 Plus launched Earlier in India compared to Previous iPhones.
    Considering these things, I Believe It won't be too Long.
    I Guess 7th November or 14th November 2014, could be the Official Launch Date in India.
    Though there are some other factors to consider:- Due to Anti-Reflective Coating, the Manufacturing of iPad Air 2 is Slower and hence stocks could be limited.
    Hope it Launches Soon. BTW it'll be in news everywhere when it does.

  • IPad Air Apps will not update after ios8.0.2

    I Now have 17 apps that will not update after I updated my iPad Air to 8.0.2. What gives?  Some apps are stuck in mid update, so i can't use them. My wifi works. I have restored my iPad twice using iTunes. I have plenty of empty storage. I have reset my iPad. I'm out of ideas.

    I have been having the same problem but was able to get around it by updating the apps in iTunes on my Mac then syncing my iPad to iTunes on my Mac. Certainly not an elegant solution but until Apple gets this fixed it is the only way I have found to get updated Apps.

  • Can't redownload certain apps after restoring to an iPad Air

    I recently backed up my iPad2 and restored to a new iPad Air. Certain apps did not come across (HBO Go, The Walking Dead, Files Pro are some of them). When I find them on the app store, there is no icon visible to re-download them.

    More info: After I restored, I did a sync to get the apps copied to the iPad Air. Most of the apps came across just fine. The ones that didn't now show up in the updates section of the store as having available updates, but there is no button next to them to install the update. Finding them in the store itself also shows there is no button to download them.  The complete list of missing Apps is:
    HBO Go
    Files Pro
    Crackle
    Watch TNT

  • IPad Air: stumped by streaming problem on dual band router

    I have a dual band router at home. My iPad Air will stream very poorly when connected to the 5 GHz band. By streaming, I mean Netflix, Crackle, etc. Everything works fine if I connect to the 2.4 GHz band. The strange part is that my old iPad One streams fine from either band. Even stranger, downloading stuff like apps or magazines works fine with the iPad Air on either band. The problem is only with the iPad Air when streaming on the 5Ghz band. Any one else has this problem?

    I am also finding streaming (from YouTube) to be poor both on wifi and 3G. My first gen iPad had a lot of problems, but streaming was never one of them. Signal strength is good and I haven't changed any network hardware or settings.

  • My brand new iPad Air 2 is making a random popping sound.

    My brand new iPad Air 2 is making a random popping sound and there are crackling sounds when I have the earphones plugged in and browsing with no music. Guy at Apple store could not replicate it when I walked in. Is this normal?
    Should I get it replaced and what are the chances that its going to happen again?

    Around here I've seen many posters that have renamed the ipad air 2 the "Ipop". You should read some of the older posts by clicking on View More at the bottom of the page until you come across it or do a search for Ipad air 2 popping noise. Last I saw it was hit or miss.  Good luck.

    Wow, that's very disappointing.
    I see that you can transfer between two Macs but not, as you say, between older Macs and iOS.
    For others, the following is from Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices
    In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed and your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model. To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need one of the Mac models listed below and OS X Lion or later.

    Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
    *The MacBook Pro (17-Inch Late 2008) and the white MacBook (Late 2008) do not support AirDrop.
