My iPad Air drains power so quickly and it's barely five months old
MMy iPad Air drains power quickly yet its still new?
Hi, igadwah.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Battery life can be difficult to troubleshoot as multiple factors contribute to how long a charge can last. Graphic intensive applications, display brightness and data connectivity are just a few of the items that can cause the battery life to decrease rapidly. I would need to know a little more information about your usage patterns to give you and idea on how to maximize battery life. However, here are some tips on how to adjust settings and charge the device that may help.
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

IPad 2 losing power very quickly and feels warm.

My iPad Air when charging cuts in and out, also the charger is extremely hot. Have tried different chargers with and power outlets, all with the same outcome.
The troubling thing to me is the fact that the charger gets extremely hot - according to what you are saying. The charger can get warm and can get fairly warm when the iPad is charging, but it should never get extremely hot. Make an appointment at an Apple Store, take the iPad, the cable and the charger with you and ask them to look at everything for you.

How to enable my ipad air coz of wrong password and Findmy ipad air is on
How to enable my ipad air because of wrong password and i cannot recover or restore my device coz Find my ipad setting in my device is on. Itunes said this must be off before anything, but i cannot turn it off in setting because device is disable. Help me
Try DFU mode:
Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
* If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information. -
I have a problem, my wife has an ipad with photos , emails etc etc, she has recently got herself a new iPad Air, has now been using that for two or more months, more photos (new) more emails and other stuff. What she wants to do is get all she wants from ipad 1 to new ipad without finishing up with 2 of everything which happen on previous occasion. I realise that she needs to tidy up ipad 1 first and get rid of thousands of emails etc. I need help.
Thanks kiwihdriderHi yes that works well when the new ipad hasn't been used. Trouble new one has been used for two months or more, has lots photos email etc etc. I am worried that these will go. When we did iPhone thru same process finished up with two of most things pics and emails. The emails alone were over 2 thousand and wife reluctant to delete them all. I would and just sort pics. Any other ideas

My iPad Air stalled during an update and will not restart even after pressing the on/off button for 15 seconds. Any suggestions?
Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear and it should reboot.

Ipad Air 32gb Wifi MD789B/A and MD789FD/A
Please can somebody let me know the difference between Ipad Air 32gb Wifi MD789B/A and MD789FD/A
MD789B/A is the UK Market model
MD789FD/A is the German Market model
Essentially the same. But intended for different markets. A German iPad might not be serviced in a UK Apple Store. -

Does iPad air have flash for pictures and video rec.?
Does iPad Air have flash for camera and video rec.?
Do you mean flash the program? or flash as in a camera flash?
The answer to both is no.
Apple products do not natively support the flash program. ANd iPads do not have the LED light for a flash. -
How many music cd's will the new Ipad air hold in 16g, 32g and 64g?
How many music cd's will the new Ipad air hold in 16g, 32g and 64g? Thanks much, Greg
That is hard to say accuratetely. As it depends on the format and length of audio. If you know the average file size of the Audio files you wish to transfer you can easily calculate.
Otherwise its like asking how many books fit in a 2 by 2 box The answer will vary largely by type and size of book.
For a base comparison normal mp3's at around 3 minutes in length take up about 1MB per minute. so you could probably fit 20,000 of those in a 64GB iPad. considering some space is taken up by apps and OS.
Double the size for more quality, and you'll get about half. so only 10,000.
But at the end it will depend on the format, and file size of the audio. -
Have an iPhone 4 that is now shutting off randomly including during calls. The iPhone is roughly about five months old. When the iPhone shuts down and tries to restart it usually take two or three times before it stays on, but when it does it sometimes has a dark line down the center and shuts off. Not very happy about the iPhone doing this. The store we had purchased the iPhone 4 from suggested that we contact Apple to see about a replacement, or send it away for service. As you can tell we are not happy at this point since the iPhone is crucial part of our day for work and family. What should we do at this point?
Thanks for the suggestions!
Except I tried all those before I even made this topic lol, but thanks!
I Already popped out the Sim Card & let my phone sit without it for a few minutes then put it back in. Sometimes it will work again & it will say it recognizes the SIM Card but more times then not it still says it cant recognize it! So I have to take it out & reinsert it multiple times.
& I have done a complete restore 2 times & a back up restore 3 times. Nothing seems to be working.
I am planning on going to the Apple Store this week, wish me luck!
But keep the suggestions coming if you have any, I'd appreciate it! -
hi guys, have lost the menu on my apple tv, only gives me computer and settings, its onlu 5 months old, can anyone help me please??
I called Apple support, no support. Called my Internet support, no support. If your Apple TV is connected up to your Internet via wireless...... hard wire to your Internet turn it on and poof it connects. Disconnect the hard wire from your Internet and it still will work. For what ever reason my wireless was not cutting it for updating the time and date which seems to be really important to Apple TV.
Good luck -
my ipod touch 2nd generation keeps taking screen shots by itself and turning off. This is a 'NEW' replacement and is less than 12 months old. Any ideas?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

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 garagebandhey 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.
