My new ipad just out of the box will not power on. What's the deal?

I just purchased my new ipad2 a few hours ago. Right out of the box it will not power on. Tried to sync in case that would help but it didn't. I can't imagine what the problem would be. At the Apple store they said it should be charged and ready to go.

Thanks but it must be defective because that didn't work. Trying to sync it didn't work nor did trying to charge it. Guess it's another trip to the Applie store tomorrow.

I have a new iPad2 - just out of the box. Everything works, except I cannot download or update applications. It will not accept my password. My iPod will accept the password. What might the problem be?

Use iTunes on your computer. With the iPad connected, sign into your Apple account and check for updates.
Doing this should straighten out the problem.

Brand new IPad 3 out of the box - set up problem with Apple ID

Brand new iPad 3 out of the box - set up problem. It says my Apple ID (email address) is already being used. I reset the password successfully but still says I need another Apple ID. Why won't the ID recornize me?

Open current iTunes on your computer. Connect iPhone to the computer with the Lightning USB Cable. Hold both the Home and Power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes the iPhone in Recovery Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes. If still problem, make Genius reservation or set up Sevice and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty.

HT3546 my airport will not power on, what are the possible causes?

My Airport just shut off and it will not power on. I unplug it from the wall and pulg it back into the power outlet but it still won't power on. What are the possible causes. Is this system just died out, I have it for about 3 years.

Causes....a failed electical power supply component or an internal connection that has come loose.
It's a real longshot, but if you are handy with small tools, carefully saw open the case of the Express along the center seam to open up the case and look for something obvious.
Your chances of success here are very very small, but if you have the time and inclination, it won't hurt to try.

What ios is on new ipad 2s out of the box

what version is the ipad 2 out of the box if i buy today

I agree with adamcohn95 that it would depend on where you buy the iPad and what the retailer has left in their inventory - or I would assume that to be the case anyway.
If you buy directly from Apple's online store, they are showing as shipping with iOS 5 from what I rememebr reading.

Will a new IPAD work out of the box without syncing it to a computer?

While I understand the reason for syncing an IPAD to your computer via ITUNES, I was wondering if the IPAD will work out of the box without syncing? I bought an IPAD for my wife for Christmas and she wants to sync it to her work computer (her own small business). She's new to Apple and she doesn't have an ITUNES account yet. By the way, she knows she's getting an IPAD for Christmas. We don't want to go to her work on Christmas day to get her IPAD "going."
Question: Can she open the IPAD on Christmas day and have it work or will we have to get her an ITUNES account and have her sync it to her work computer prior to Christmas for it to work on Christmas day?
I would prefer to keep it boxed up until Christmas but I'd like her to be able to use it on Christmas day and then after Christmas go to her work to download ITUNES and sync it to her computer.

I purchased an iPad with 3G for a family member without a computer with Internet connection who lives in a rural area where 3G is available. I shipped the iPad however upon receipt the only thing he could do with it was charge it. Due to physical limitations related to a medical condition he rarely leaves his residence. The marketing for the iPad implies a stand alone capable device, however, until I was able to visit several months after shipping the iPad the family member was not able to use it. During my visit I took the iPad to an AT&T store and they were able to set it so it showed the icons and allowed setup of Interner access. I can understand the Wi-Fi version likely being purchased by someone that already has a computer with Internet access, but the 3G should be able to funciton out of the box as a stand alone unit and it does not.

Just bought a new iPad, and my highlights and bookmarks will not sync to it through iBooks.

Hey, I just bought the third-generation iPad. I have been reading on the iPad 2 for a year now, and have hundreds of books in my library. Because I'm such an intense reader, and value my highlights, it upset me when I bought the new iPad, synced it to iTunes, and then highlights and bookmarks were not transferred to the new iPad. The books were all out of order when they synced, and I had to rearrange them, but they were in the correct collections. This was my first hint that something was wrong. Next, when I opened my books, I could not find a single highlight in any of them. I checked all the books on my iPad 2 and they're fine as usual, everything is how I left it, including my bookmarks and highlights, and I even went into settings and made sure sync bookmarks was on on both iPads. I am completely confused and frustrated. I even put my new iPad into DFU mode and tried to re-sync everything, nothing is working. They just won't sync. Could someone please help me out, this means a lot to me. Also: is anyone noticing that the multitouch is slightly off with the new iPad? I'll go to tap dictation or drag an icon to another page, and it's just not that responsive. a few times I have clicked the dictation button but I gotten a space in instead. It seems you just have to press harder almost. Lastly, my 30 pin seems to be a little tight. I put a standard 30 pin sync cord that came with my original iPad 2 and iPhone 4 into the 30 pin and I almost had to jam it into the 30 pin slot. I work with iDevices all day long and have never had one that needed to be jammed in before. It doesn't seem good for the iPad. Yes, I am borderline about to return it, but the screen just looks so much clearer, I can't go back to my iPad 2. Wow, again I pressed the dictation button and the spacebar activated instead. If anyone can figure out this whole iBook situation so I can get my bookmarks and my highlights back, I would really appreciate it!

I also tried manually underlining a few things on the new iPad and when highlighting a paragraph, it would skip a few lines and the line would go through a few as well. Looks like a major iBooks glitch needs to be addressed here.

My new Airport express mysteriously dropped all signals, I reset it and only my iMac is now connected to my network. My iPad, iPhone 4S and Roku box will not connect - any solutions to this?

My new Airport express mysteriously dropped all signals (due to lack of DNS settings ?!?!), I reset it and only my iMac is able to be connected to my network. My iPad 2, iPhone 4S and Roku box will no longer connect. Any solutions to this? Everything was using my netwoek before.

Did you power down your modem prior to resetting the Express?
If not, do it now. Leave it connected to your Express while you power it down. Let it rest a moment or two, then power it back up. Once it restarts, determine if all your other devices are able to connect.

Cableone innstalled a new server and now my thunderbird email will not work. What do I do now?

Cableone, our internet provider, has changed from a Google server to their own server and now my Thunderbird email will not work. They have directions listed to make it work, but this does not work. I have also contacted Cableone's technical support and they say because thunderbird is not their system they have no responsibility to make it work. I prefer to use Thunderbird for my email - how can I make it work? Also, I have tried the Thunderbird 'Automatic Account Configuration' help and it does not work.

Ask your less than helpful provider for the server settings and setup the new account up manually.
You want to know IMAP or POP and the name of the server. The port number and if it uses SSL/TLS security.
You need the same info for the SMTP server for outbound mail.

HT1338 I just updated my system to 10.6.8. New computer just out of the box, but I wanted to download Numbers from the App store and it says I need 10.7.4. How do I get this update?

I have a new IMac, purchased from my Dad that he never used. I just did the latest update to 10.6.8. I wanted to get "Numbers" on the computer from the App Store but it says I need 10.7.4. How do I get this? Everytime I try update it goes to 10.6.8. I am new to Apple and struggling a bit.

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
If it's a Core Duo Mac, you must install the DVD version of iWork. If you previously got a compatible version of Numbers from the Mac App Store, go to its home page and click on Support under Quick Links.
If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, try purchasing Mac OS X 10.8 from the Mac App Store. If you get told that it's incompatible, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for 10.7.
If upgrading to 10.7 or 10.8 requires any other upgrades or replacements(they both require at least 2GB RAM and don't support PowerPC-only software such as Office 2004), it may be cheaper to buy and install the DVD version of iWork even if your computer can be upgraded to use the Mac App Store version.

Imac just died on me, now will not power up.

imac just went blank yesterday. Now won't power back up. Sounds like it is trying, but screen is blank and keyboard doesn't respond. I can hear the fan for a couple of seconds and some brief clicks, then it stops. Tries again about 20 seconds later. Was streaming video for a few hours prior. Have gone through all troubleshooting steps and nothing..

Don't have an answer for your, but just to let you know you're not alone...

My iPad is showing app updates but will not load. What's up?

My iPad is showing updates available but none will load. I've even gone through each app but can't find any. Anyone know what's going on.

Happening to many users, me too - I suspect a server problem. Wait a day or use itunes to update, I was able to do that.
