My ipad seems to be in recovery mode, what does that mean

what do i do

I'm not sure what you are basing your statement on, but if you are seeing the iTunes logo and the USB cable on the iPad screen, that means that you have to connect the iPad to iTunes on your computer.
If you cannot restore the iPad for some reason, then you have to use recovery mode which is described here.

    My first generation iPad no longer takes a charge; what does that mean?

    The genius bar is the service desk at the Apple Store. If there are no Apple Stores in your country, then check the Apple website to find an authorized service provider.
    Apple charges US$99 to replace the battery in an iPad (any model).

  • I keep getting message "This page requires a plugin that can only run in 32 bit mode" what does this mean and how can I fix it?

    I keep getting message "This page requires a plugin that can only run in 32 bit mode" what does this mean and how can I fix it? It seems to come up randomly, but I'm fairly ignorant.

    Previous versions of Firefox were only 32 bit, Firefox 4 for the Mac contains 32 and 64 bit versions. If you want to always start Firefox in 32 bit mode, open up Finder and go to the Applications folder. Control-click the Firefox app and click "Get Info", then select the "Open in 32-bit mode" option.

  • HT4060 My ipad has been charging most of the morning but its still saying low power...what does that mean?

    I've been charging my ipad most of the morning but its still saying low power...what does that mean?

    iPad Charging
    "The fastest way to charge your iPad is with the included USB Power Adapter.
    iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter.
    When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.
    Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain."

    Don't buy it. It's likely a stolen iPad.

  • Spatial conform and blend mode; what does it mean and wherefore?

    I can't find a explination in the help...: spatial conform and blend mode; what does it mean and when do you use it because there is e a big numbre of choises.
    Ican't find a explination in the help...
    Thanks!    

    Spatial conform is where you decide whether you want the (oversize) image to fit the video display size, or to be full-size (allowing room for animation).
    Blend modes - far too many to describe here even if I knew them all, but Overlay is a nice one to start with. They specify how you want a layer to blend with the one below it. Try them and see what they do.

  • On my iPad, my outgoing email regularly replies that the email was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.  WHat does that mean and how do I make the email go anyway?

    on my iPad, my outgoing mail regularly replies that the email was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. What does that mean and how can I make the emails go out?

    Try this.
    Check your username and password in the outgoing mail server setting. Fill it in even of it says that it's optional.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>choose the email account>account name, tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email username and password and see if that works for you.

  • Keep getting message "ipad cannot be synced, unknown error (1150)...what does that mean?

    Whenever I try to sync my iPad I keep getting message "iPad cannot be synced, unknown error" with code (1150).  What does that mean?

    This happened to me after I upgraded to iOS6. 
    Tried everything I could find in a common thread here on the site, but what finally worked was...well, the last thing I did before it allowed a sync, I guess I can't say for sure that this is the problem, but...somehow, in the sync settings for the iPad, the "Sync Only Checked Songs and Videos" box had become unchecked.  Clearly, there isn't enough room on the iPad for everything on the laptop, so I think this may have been choking it. 
    Worked fine at that point.
    And, for what it's worth, I looked at the Music tab for my iPad in iTunes, and THERE it said only to use selected artists and playlists, but on the main SUMMARY page, the box was unchecked. 
    Oh, and I updated all the apps on the iPad (73 updates??) before trying the sync, so that might be a factor too. 
    Good luck.

  • HT4759 I keep getting this message " the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad " what does that mean and how can I fix it

    I keep getting this message " the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad " what does that mean and how can I fix it

    It's a really bad idea to post your iPhone's serial number and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
    Any one device can create only three iCloud accounts. As you have apparently already created three accounts (or if it's a used phone the previous owner did) you cannot create any more one it. This is tied to the hardware, not the account, and there is no way round it.
    You can create a new iCloud account on another iOS device or on a Mac, and then you will be able to sign into that on your iPhone.

  • When an app is downloaded to an IPAD and it says waiting, what does that mean?

    When an app is downloaded to an IPAD and below the icon it says waiting, what does that mean?

    Try this.
    Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it shouild resume the download.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

    Hi Kuhl54,
    If you have questions about turning on iTunes Match on an iOS device, you may find the following article helpful:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4913
    Important:
    When enabling iTunes Match on your iOS device, the music library on your iOS device will be deleted and then replaced with your music in iCloud.
    Syncing music with iTunes will be disabled while iTunes Match is enabled on your iOS device.
