My SEND button on the iPad 2 for texting / iMessage is frozen.
Tried several addresses and tried re-booting, but no luck.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Was it a proper Reset you do? [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!
Failing that, try closing Messages - first open Messges, double tap on the Home button, hold down on the Messages app which appears in the bottom task bar until the red minus sign appears and then click on the minus sign. Now go back to the Messages app and try again.

I would like to be able to access a cloud based product called Go File Room from my iPad. However, I can't sign on due to what appears to simply be the lack of a "enter" key on the ipad. I have tried accessing the product using go to my pc, but no luck.

I am trying to use a cloud based product called Go File Room using my ipad. I type my user name and password, but can't hit "enter"? Is there a solution?

According to the publisher For GoSystem Tax, the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer 8, 9, or 10 is required. Which means it can't be accessed from an iPad. This seems weird. I would recommend you contact the publisher.

My ipad mini says to connect to itunes, and I try to restore it, but after its done extracting a message comes up saying that device is not found, is there anyway i can fix this? I don't care if i don't get my stuff back

My iPad mini says to connect to iTunes, and I try to restore it, but after its done extracting a message comes up saying that device is not found, is there anyway i can fix this? I don't care if i don't get my stuff back, i just want my iPad restored to its starting settings.

If everything else that you try fails, I would try using another computer. Since you don't care about saving any data, any computer that is running the latest version of iTunes might be able to restore the iPad. You could make an appointment at an Apple Store Genius Bar and they can do it for you.
If that isn't feasible for you, try using a different cable, a different USB port. reboot the computer, and reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Then try again.

My ipad locked up I tried to restart and have a spinning wheel

my ipad locked up I tried to restart and have a spinning wheel. I can't restart by holding the power button down. Just a white spinning wheel.

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

The App Store said I needed to switch countries so I clicked the button and it switched it for me but now I can't update my apps but when I try to change it through settings it still says the country is the u.s. I don't know what to do to change it back

Phillipp,
I tried it again using "save link as", and this time it actually worked! I just now downloaded several more using the "save link as" option, and it works perfectly. Thanks. Problem solved.

Talk to your carrier. Sounds like something is not provisioned right on your account.

Hello there, Victoria.
Great job on troubleshooting on your own. The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps to review and additional recomendations:
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
Resolving issues
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge until your device turns on. This could take between 10 and 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue persists, please contact Apple Support.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

On my daughters iPad mini she can not send messages. She can receive them but the send button stays light gray after you type a message. It worked when we first set it up but now it does not. Tried resetting and logging out and back in. With no change.

I can not send messages on an iPad mini the send button stays light gray and will not send. I can receive. I reset and logged out and back inn with no results. It worked fine when we first set it up. Any suggestions?

Hello iMessage issues 1234,
Thank you for the details of the issue your daughter is experiencing with sending messages on the iPad. It sounds like you might have the Subject Field turned on. To disable this go to Settings > Messages > Show Subject Field.
iPhone User Guide - Messages settings
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iphf2d853e3
If the Subject Field is not enabled but messages are still not sending, I recommend continuing with the following article:

HT3529 Unable to send or receive imessages on ipad mini... tried to restart, and software is up to date... any other suggestions?

On Ipad Mini - unable to send or receive imessages... tried to restart and software is up to date... any suggestions? When we go to messages, the page is blank...

Did you try turning iMessage off and back on?

My iPad is telling that it cannot connect to server when checking for emails but I can connect to the internet

My email was working great, I tried sending a large attachment and couldn't, I cleared that and now my email cannot connect to server, internet is working fine, any suggestions?

Sometimes it helps to close the mail app and reboot the iPad. That will reset the app and the iOS system. Try mail again after that.
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Mail app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Hi i am havin trouble with my ipad after i have downloaded a game and have been playing for a while it seems to of diapeared and the screen goes a white blank background there is nothing on the screen at all so i switch it off and back on and it is white

Quit the game and restart the iPad.
To quit the game - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. 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 button.
If that doesn't work try this.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Seems like alot of people are having the same issues with being able to receive email but not send emails. Like others, I have tried re-booting, switching off, deleting account, reinstalling account but to still no avail! Does anyone else have any ideas?

Hi there - I have rebooted and turned off ipad and deleted my yahoo account and reloaded it but I still cant send messages, any other suggestions? Thanks.

Me too,
I can logon to Yahoo directly with my wife's iPad. I can then send an email to my iMac. What I cannot do is send an email directly from her iPad to me - so I consider the problem is with iOS 7.0.3. All i get is a long 'sending' session that ends with "incorrect username or Password", but that cannot be right. I have deleted and re-created the account on the iPad - cleared Safari's history and cookies. Nothing changes. It seems to be very widespread this problem and as yet nothing coming from Yahoo or Apple. This is similar to the Windows' users experiences. Pity.

My ipad 2 disconnects while trying to update and cant complete syncing / copying of apps.

Recently My ipad 2 has not been able to get a full charge and after repeat attempts manages a 95% charge. i updated to iOS 8.1.3. and my ipad disconnects while trying to update and cant complete syncing / copying of apps. it just keeps rebooting itself!

Howdy frakie,
If you are having an issue with your iPad restarting itself, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
In particular, since you are already using the latest version of the operating system -
If you still see this issue after updating, contact Apple Support.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I am trying to delete apps from my Ipad. I have tried to hold the app until the cross appears but a cross is not appearing. Do I need to delete them in Itunes first and if so how

I am trying to delete apps from my Ipad. I have tried to hold the app down until the cross appears but the cross does not appear. Do I have to delete the app in I tunes first and if so how do I do that

deleteing apps for your ipad is disabled. If you are the owner of it go to Settings>general>restrictions and then turn deletieing apps back on.
If you have a jailbroken iPad that will proberly not work.
Hope i helped
