New 4G iPad UK - NOT HAPPY

Hi
I've just found out that the new ipad 4g will not work on the UK 4G network when it finally rolls out in the UK due to it operating at different frequencies than the USA!
One of the reasons why I bought my new ipad was to make the most of 4G after it's fully made available in the UK after the current pilots have been carried out. Now I learn it won't even work on 4G then!
I'm really not happy about this. I know apple are now removing the 4G part from their adds but is there anything people like me can do as I feel I've been misold the new ipad?
Thanks for your help.

Yes.  Return it for a refund, explaining why you're returning it.
You could also buy a wifi only iPad and purchase a 4G Personal Hotspot from your carrier.  The iPad (and other devices) would then connect to that PH via wifi.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Given that it's only 3 months old and was brand new, you are covered by warranty. You need to take it to whoever you bought it from as they are the servicer of your warranty.
    Good luck!

  • Hi.  My new generation iPad will not accept my wireless network password.

    Hi!  My new generation iPad tells me my wireless network password is incorrect.  Therefore, I cannot connect!  Please help!

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

  • My new used ipad will not let me have the cloud

    I bought a used iPad when I register for the cloud it says maximum amount of accounts. I want to use the cloud?

    Apple puts a three iCloud account limit on every device. There is no way to get around this. from what I have read, this is done in order to limit the amount of free storage that any one user can have. You cannot do anything about this. The limit is tied to the device itself - not to the user ID on the device.
    Buying used iOS devices can save some money, but you just never know what you can be getting into when you decide to purchase previously owned devices.

  • Got the new 6301 -- so far, not happy!

    Why is my phone so slow? Clicking on the menu takes ages to load (compared to 6300, which my friend has).
    Things are complicated in this phone and it seems I can't make them simple. Example: I don't see any "Inbox" in shortcuts, instead of clicking 3 to 4 clicks to get into my inbox, I can't have it faster. That is annoying!

    the menu cud not open fast az it cud b due to software related issues...update ur phone software if therz an update available ...it shud work n even ur inbox prob. may get solved... though u cn go to settings n add the inbox shortcut to the shorcut keys..or simply customize ur go to menu an add inbox dere..

  • My iPad less than one year old, had battery fault , taken in and replaced.  Is the replacement new, no I don't think so but a refurb one. Also don't get another year warranty?..  Has anyone else had this?  Not happy

    iPad faulty not even one year old......taken in and replaced.    Is this a new iPad......?  No was told. Old be three years old....why isn't it being replaced with a new one, with a new warranty....of another year.?  As they have only given me 90 days... Makes me wonder why.?... Have they no faith in their product...I am beginning to wonder..........
    Anyone else experienced this.?.... Or any ideas where l stand.   The web site useless,

    A warranty replacement can be a new or refurbished unit as specified in the warranty terms.
    A warranty replacement will have warranty for the balance of the original term or 90 days, whichever is longer.
    All perfectly normal.

  • Ex-Uverse customer not happy with being a new Fios customer

    We just had our Fios Triple installed on Saturday 9/30/13. I was a very happy Uverse customer.  We moved to Verizon territory and we wanted something similar so we chose Verizon vs Direct TV and Charter Cable.  Verizon Fios is far inferior to my experience with AT&T Uverse. It wasn't just one person but the whole experience. I never called AT&T's customer service in the years we had it. We had no problems. I just got off the phone for the sixth time since our install and  it hasn't been a week yet. 
    Issue 1) Installer called at 8:30am to tell us he needs to come earlier than our 10am-3pm appointment. I explained we were moving and was signing the lease at 9am that is why we set a 10am-3pm appointment so we would have the key, TVs and phone in our place ready for the install. The installer said well he was scheduled for 2 appointments during that time frame so he doesn't know if he could make it at all if he doesn't come now. I told him it was ok to come after 3pm but please call and let us know since we are moving in. I thought about the situation and as a former dispatcher myself, I knew we shouldn't have gotten that call. I called customer service to let them know installer might not be able to show at all and gave them heads up. We got a call back from the installer telling us he will keep the set appointment time. He showed at 1pm
    Issue 2) The installer showed with a bad attitude. Our place was already set up for Fios. The previous resident had it installed so it shouldn't have been a hard job. He was complaining he needed to drill a hole to install the Router in the living room.  I told him no problem the hole can be covered with the TV and furniture. There was only one wall that the TV could go on so I asked what was the alternative outside of canceling the order. He placed a small hole next to the Verizon box so I wasn't sure what his issue was. It was obvious he didn't want to come to work that day. He took what I thought a long time to set up DVR, Set Top Box,router and phone. I tried hard not to compare AT&T installer to Verizon installer because people have different personalities. This installer wasn't friendly and AT&T went out of his way to tell us what he was doing, gave us feedback and walked us through all three. To put the icing on the cake, he left a nice sheet with our new phone number, att.net email, Uverse URL, wireless network connection name and key and if we had any questions in the next few days, we could call him directly since he was familiar with our set up. The Verizon installer went over the remote and left the channel line up brochure. He told us if you need the wireless network connection info for the devices,  the numbers are on the back of the modem. (Do you know how many numbers are on the back of the modem???) I know how to find the numbers but my husband didn't so I had to tell him which ones.
    Issue 3) After the install we went back to the old house and got more stuff to move. My husband said he wanted to record Homeland on Showtime can I do it from my phone like I did with Uverse. It took me 1 hour to figure it out because the website wasn't mobile so it wasn't working. I had to download 3 apps to figure out which one to use. I was so proud that I figured it out. It wasn't intuitive and it confirmed I had scheduled the recording. Monday morning I'm in front of the DVR to check my scheduled recordings. Homeland was there but didn't play. Called customer service..They said you have the Extreme HD. You need Ultimate HD. I told them I'm a customer and the names mean nothing to me. I wanted the package that had Showtime but didn't need HBO. When I placed the order originally, I told the sales agent I wanted a similar package to what we had with Uverse. I mentioned we watch Lifetime, Showtime, the Movie Channel and sports but we were going to suck it up that Uverse got Pac 12 channel last week and Fios doesn't have it. I pulled out the channel brochure and saw that there are no movie channels with the Extreme package. I think of 2 errors-1) Give us the channels we want and 2) Why was I able to appear to record from a channel we didn't subscribe to but I was made aware of the 3rd error when the new agent was confirming my order. The price for more channels was cheaper!!! Now I'm not happy at all!!!
    Issue 4) I had to look up the phone number on my account. It wasn't in the confirmation email order and of course I had to call customer service once again to get full access to my account online because the call never came through with my full access activation code. I got the code and went to set up my voice mail. I couldn't. I called customer service again and was told I didn't have a voice mail box set up on the server. I asked why. The tech said it wasn't on the order so we didn't now you wanted it. I asked is there an extra charge doesn't it come with Fios voice he said yes then I asked why isn't it just set up. He said how are we suppose to know you want it!!! I've been ordering landlines and cell phones since the 70's. I've never had to tell anyone I want voice mail. All I had to do was set it up.He said well I'll add it and it could take up to 24 hours before you can set it up. 
    Issue 5) I record Scandal and schedule to record on all types since we have HD in the living room and SD in the bedroom. We decide to watch half in the living room and the other half in the bedroom. You know the problem there.. CAN'T. I'm still frustrated with Verizon but haven't reached the boiling point until...I can't record  on Monday night The Voice and Dancing With the Stars at the same time at 8pm and Hostages and Black List at 10pm. I see 8pm shows recording as the same time as the 10pm because the networks end the shows at 10:01pm. I said well lets see if in the future one of the shows are on Video On Demand. Click on VOD and it says Temporarily Unavailable. SERIOUSLY!!!! I call customer service. I get a tech. He transfers me to a sales agent to make sure I have VOD in my package. She gets an ear full  of my problems and gives me a $20 discount per month for 12 months. I didn't boil over..Still frustrated but appreciated that finally someone tried to make me happy. She transfers me to tech to fix DVR issues and VOD. Tech can't fix SD/HD or recording my 4 Monday night shows. The DVR has limitations that I didn't have with Uverse. VERIZON -time to get up to speed and fast with your DVR limitations. It can be solved with allowing more recordings at the same time...DUH!! You guessed it..Video on Demand was never set up for our account. It will take up to 24 hours to add this service that even comes with the basic Fios!!! I asked the tech how does this happen! When an order is placed isn't there a check list to make sure all the features are activated. He said yes but the agent didn't order VOD. Now to me that makes no sense for the agent to have to order set up for something that comes with a package. It should be a part of the check list.
    Verizon..All I can say is, you guys have got to get this together. There needs to be a customer complaint hotline because I now get to tell everyone on this forum and all my social media accounts how poor your set up for new customers and how your DVR service is lacking. I asked during each call if there was a general customer relations department for Fios one agent said yes and gave me the number to Verizon Wireless customer relations...oops!! I happen to be a wireless customer and they got an ear full and apologized for your incompetence. They didn't have a number and got off the phone embarrassed that they shared the same name.

  • New Apple Tv will not connect with iPad Air 2

    My new Apple TV will not recognize my iPad Air or Air 2, but will recognize all other devices in the house (iPhone 5c, 5s,  6, iPad mini, MacBook, etc).  What am I missing that the new Airs will not connect? All software is up to date. they are on same network.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • How do I change the background colour on notes. I need a darker background due to a visual issue. Apple has now discriminated those with visual issues.  I am so not happy with many of the new changes because of this.

    I am so not happy with the new changes especially when it come to the ability to change background colours, fonts and font sizes/ colours... Does Apple really think that their only audience is the young cool crowd or people who do not have a visual impairment.  Think before you make changes to your software and programs.  You WILL lose more people to androids if you continue this way.
    At least give users the ability to make apps like notes their owned by allowing them to pick the style, theme, background and colour, font size and colour. 
    A very ****** off Apple user who is now looking at Androids.

    Hi Tricia,
    I'm sorry but I don't see an ideal way to do this. Is it the yellow label text, e.g:  "New" against the white background which is causing the difficulty?
    The only way I've found of getting the colors to change in Notes is via Settings>General>Accessibility>Invert Colors but then it looks like something has barfed all over your screen.
    I'd be very, very surprised if Apple do not fix this, firstly because I believe "Accessibility" is a legal matter and secondly because they will not want to cause difficulty for their customers.  We have to remember that this is a major, major overhaul of iOS, it has essentially been taken back to the drawing board and done from scratch again, it may take a little time, but I'm sure they will fix these issues.
    Regards,
    Steve

    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If you are having issues accessing your Shared Albums from your iPad (but not from your other devices), you may want to double-check your iCloud Photo Sharing configuration as outlined in the following articles, just to make sure it hasn't changed:
