My iPad 2 just works for 8h

What can i do when my ipad2 batery duration is 8h max?
It has a low usage of 1week and half.
Everywere i look i see and hear advertising 10 to 12hours usage...

If that is all that you are doing on the iPad - yes I agree that you should be getting a couple of more hours out of a full 100% charge of the battery.
Are you charging the battery every night to its full capacity? The 10 hours of use is based on having the full charge.
When you are using the Internet, do you stream a lot of video content? That kind of Internet use will drain a bit more of the battery that just basic web surfing - at least I think that it will.
Have you tried restarting the iPad and then fully charge the battery overnight and then see how many hours of life the battery gives you?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the buttons.
Finally, and I'm not totally sure about this because I have a wifi only iPad, but I think that you can turn 3G off in your settings. Even though you may not be using 3G to connect to the Internet, maybe it is still looking for a signal if it is turned on. I really don't know how 3G works this way - its just a theory.

I just updated my Iphone 3G and now it won´t work anymore. It wouldn´t even boot. It was just working for 3 sek. after the installation and now it shut itself down. Any help, please?

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
You also said: "It also will not let me download any music onto it." What happens when you try to sync music to the iPod?

I have an Airport Express and the pass code I used some time ago for my IPad won't work for my new IPhone 5S?

If you are sure that you are entering the correct password, then this sounds like an iPhone issue, so your best bet will be to post in the iPhone Support Community so that the experts over there can help.

The best that we can do here is suggest that you start with the iOS support document Troubleshooting Wi-Fi Networks and Connections.

I would like to use an external drive for the iPad I just purchased for my husband? How can I accomplish this is there an accessory that would allow me to use a USB

I would like to use an external drive for storage on the ipad I just purchased. How can I do this?

You can't attach drives to any iOS device.
Having said that, there are some drives with built-in wifi routers that a device can connect to. These would behave like a cloud device in which some of your apps might be able to connect.
Try googling to find some brands.

Playing audio books on the iPad using just Siri (for a blind person)

I'm trying to help an 87 year old friend whose eyesight is rapidly degrading enjoy audio books easily. Lately what we've been doing is downloading books from audible.com. They will get put in this iTunes "books" section. From there he has been able to locate the book icon and tap it to play.
But this is quickly becoming impossible because he can't even see the icon to tap it. And he just can't get the hang of assistive touch features.
He can play music on his iPad by just using the Siri "Play...." voice command. I'm thinking if I can get audio books into his Music library somehow he can do the same thing.
I tried with the Audible app though, and they just end up in the Audible player, which is no use, because the Audible player has no Siri interface because Apple doesn't allow 3rd party apps to use Siri.
If I can sync books from iTunes on his iMac to his iPad, where do they end up? I don't have any audio books myself. Are they in a section in the Music app on his iPad if present?
I'm looking on my own iPad right now and see "Radio, Playlists, Artists, Songs, Albums, Genres, Compilations and Composers."
But I don't see a section for "Audiobooks" like in iTunes on my MacBook Pro.
Are audio books on the iPad played with a different app, which can be used by Siri?
Lets say this is possible, what are the other voice commands he can use in addition to "Play ...". Is there a pause or stop command as well?
I'd like to make this as easy for him as possible.
Thanks for any advice you can give.

If you press and hold the fast forward or rewind button, it will scan forward through the current track. That at least will let you get where you want to be quicker, without having to reconnect to itunes.

Why is my ipad and itunes working for everything on the stores, but the search doesnt work on them? Any ideas what i can do to help it?

My ipad and iphone wont search for anything on the app store or itunes store, after a minute of loading it says 'server has timed out' in the blue box. But the weird thing is all the other features on the stores work, and do not crash. How could i fix this?

try this
I seperated each step and changed it abit for ya that i found that maybe useful for you bc it sounds like the same "Wireless Weirdness" that this person had the same problem.

1. Restart the computer and wait to see if the network is discovered before entering it manually.
2. Power off on the modem and router and restarted computer
3. If no network selected, do the diagnostics
4. Enter the SSID & PSWD
5. If asked for DHCP or PPo, chose DHCP
6. If asked for cable, say no bc u use wireless
after that, it should work for ya

When I purchase my iPad I was working for McDonald's and my user ID was my McDonald's email address , I donot work for them now. I need to change my iPad user ID and I don't remember my password for the old user ID

When I purchae my iPad, my user ID was set up as my email address, now I am not working for the company and my user ID is not working. I need to change my iPad user ID

You could go to settings/itunes & app store, tap on the ID and then log out. Tap on create new ID and do that and then log in with that ID. You would need to turn off imessage and facetime and turn them back on and activate them with the new ID. You will need to delete the icloud account save any contents to the device and create a new account. Remember that all purchases are linked to the old ID and can only be updated etc with that ID

Ipad Remote app works for only half the songs in my iTunes library, and sound still comes out of my Mac instead of my iPad.

Can anyone offer suggestions? I realize there are two separate issues here.
1. I thought I successfully connected my iPad with the iTunes library on my Mac/ Hard Drive via the Remote app. However, more than half the songs in my music library will not play on the Ipad; when I click on any one of them using the iPad's Remote app & iTunes, I get a message box that says: "An unknown error occurred. Please check your library and try again." These songs all play fine through my Mac's Itunes program.
2. I had thought I could use the Remote app to get my library "into" my receiver, connecting the iPad to the receiver with an RCA-to-headphone adapter. This adapter works great to play music that "lives" on an iPod or iPad. But it does not seem to be able to access music that the ipad is controlling only remotely. If this is true I will be pretty unhappy...

Thank you. My two questions have now shifted.
1. You are right-- I have been unsure as to whether Homesharing or Remote was my answer, and I did set up Homesharing on both my Mac and iPad. It still appears that my music comes out of the Mac, only. How can i use Homesharing to allow the iPad to play music?
2. And I went back to check again, and saw that somehow, the songs that my iPad cannot locate are also somehow missing now on the Mac, even though they used to be accessible. My entire music library is stored on an external hard drive, which I used to connect to my Mac with USB. I just got a new router and now have the music hard drive connected via USB to IT instead of the Mac. I would bet that this is why so much of my library is no longer accessible-- I must have used different settings to save some of my songs, and the hard drive's new location shows that. Can anyone help me make my entire music library playable ? Thanks again

Now before you do anything else, put it back in the bag and leave ot there for another week.
Turned it back on today
Oh, too late...
Try it anyway.
I haven't had it for very long, but it is definately out of warranty period (not that apple covers water damage anyway).
Apple warranty is 1 year and iPhone 5S has not been released for 1 year.
However, dropping it in the sink has voided the remainng warranty.
You can get a replacement fro $269 (U.S.) at an Apple store.

IMessage in my iPad is not working for pictures

I can't send pictures through iMessage on my iPad, I can receive pictures. This has been going on for quite some time now. I was able to use iMessage for pictures without a problem before, anyone knows if there's something wrong? I am not sure if this began with the new update? If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. I took it to apple and they lady said that MMS has to be on which makes sense but the iPad doesn't have MMS well at least mine doesn't.
