My iPad Air 16GB says I have 12GB? Please help :(
My iPad air 16GB arrived today and when I check my stats I see I have 12GB. Why does it say that? I should have 16GB and not 12GB. I went on settings and about. Really appreciate the help
Thank you.
The iOS and built-in apps take up space. 12GB free space is normal for a new 16GB iPad. It's been like this for all computers, tablets, smartphones, etc for as long as they've been made.

When I enter my photos app(only on my iPad Air), it says my iCloud storage can't update because it's full. In the settings it says I have 1,5 GB storage left. How do I solve this problem?
Welcome to the Apple community.
Could you please clarify what it is that is full, your iPad or your iCloud storage. -
I have a ipad air 16gb... I have just returned from overseas and wanted to download a few movies, then I discovered I could only get 2 downloaded. So this tells me I haven't enough storage. So, my question is can I purchase more gb/storage or is there a external hard drive that can connect to ipad air.?
Use one of the cloud storage services. Either keep your media on there and copy to memory one or two at a time for off-line watching. Or watch via streaming when you can find web access.
Perhaps better is to download or rip DVD to PC, then keep the media on a separate storage drive. You can get 500 and 1000 GB external drives that connect to Ipad via their own built in wifi capability.
Or the cheaper option use a simple USB card reader (about 20$ from Amazon) and keep your media on a card. I use a 64gb SD card. Takes 30 movies in good quality resolution. -
How do you manage space on iPad Air 16GB using one apple ID account?
I have an iphone 5 and the new iPad Air 16GB wi-fi only that I will be using icloud to sync back and fourth to one another. First I was wondering when I go into settings, then icloud on my iphone 5, I see Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Safari, Notes, Passbook, Keychain, Photos, Documents and data, and find my iphone on the list. So the way I understand the whole syncing deal is you turn on whichever ones of those you want to be able to view on the iphone 5 and then you go to your ipad air and do the same thing turn on and off whatever you want to be able to view on their, and thats when your using the same apple id between both devices. My next question is that the only area that you can turn off or on what you want to be able to view on the devices? Is the the settings, icloud, is that the only place in setting you turn off and on what will sync and not sync?? So in other words the apps and games you really cant manually manage. For example if I have 5 games on my iphone 5 and only want 3 of those games to sync over to my ipad air and the other 2 not to sync over, is that possible? To me the only way to accomplish that would be to create a new apple ID account, but that would eliminate the option of being able to sync calendars, notes, reminders, etc and be able to view them on both devices which would kind of suck and defeat the purpose right? Please let me know if I am on the right page with all this and if their are any other things that I should know about in the settings menu to fully utilize the managing and syncing only this or that between the ipad air and iphone 5 using the same apple ID/icloud account information.
Thanks
Are you sure that if I use my windows log in rather than my husbands, then open itunes it won't delete all his hundreds of songs and overwrite with mine?
I want to maintain my own apple ID login and he wants his but without losing his songs.....
how do i transfer the content of my itunes including apps and songs to the new computer. There doesn't seem to be an easy explanation on here. Do I just plug my iPhone in and it will all transfer? -

My Ipad Air is saying that I am connected to my Wifi but when ever I try to open anything it tells me im not connected to server / error and yes I am definitely connected to my Wifi
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
If that doesn't help, restart your router.
If nothing above has helped, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections -
I purchased a movie on Apple TV and cannot find it on other Apple TVs in the house or on my ipad. It says I have no purchases, but I was watching it yesterday. The reception was so bad that I stopped and wanted to view it today. It has a link to other movies I might like based on buying that movie so its strange it says I had no purchases.
Ok problem solved; signing out of iTunes account and signing back in solved it.

I want to tether my iphone5 to my ipad and verizon says I have to pay more
I want to tether my iphone5 to my ipad and verizon says I have to pay more. I have the 2g data package with my phone. I was understood that the hot spot feature was not charged for. I would not have upgraded my phone from a basic phone to the smart phone if I had not realized that the data would not be able to be used with the phone and ipad.
Sorry I should have proofed my post. English is terrible

Is it possible to expand memory in an iPad air 16Gb ios7
is it possible to expand memory in an iPad air 16Gb ios7
Not the iPad itself.
There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.

How can I link my iPad Air and iPhone 4s via Bluetooth, please? They both have Bluetooth turned on but will only search and find nothing. The words 'Now Discoverable' appear under the search panel.
for the devices to find each other via Bluetooth you would need to turn on the iPhones cellular hotspot and then let them search for each other. As far as I have found this Bluetooth connection is only for connecting the iPad to internet via iPhones data plan.
To transfer photos you could setup a new photo stream and put the photos you want transferred in it. When it syncs to the iPad you can save directly to the camera roll and delete the photo stream. You may also be able to delete the photos old photos and re-add them to photo stream so it looks like they are new to the iPad. -
