New iPad 3GB of Other Usage with almost nothing on iPad

I use my new iPad for nothing but apps and web surfing, I have about 500 MB of apps, and that's it, but when I synced it with iTunes today I had 3GB of Other Usage Instantly once it synced. I have no contacts on there, no notes, messages, or anything. What is going on??

How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?

Can i use my AT&T 3G Ipad 2 in other country with a local carrier SIM?

Yes, as long as that country supports GSM networks... most do, verify yours. ATT iPads are not locked.

I came to Apple Store fix my iPad and they told me the only thing they can replace it for $254 but I forgot to ask Wich iPad they would replace it with I have the iPad 1

I concur with Ralph; while you can get your iPad replaced, I likewise suggest you consider putting the money toward a newer iPad. Apple has some good deals on refurbished iPads in the online Apple Store you could check out. Depending on what is wrong with your current iPad, you might be able to sell it to someone for parts - eBay is the most likely venue - and recoup some additional money to put toward a newer iPad. I'd recommend a 3rd-generation iPad if you can afford it, though the iPad 2 will still run the most recent version of iOS.

I appear to have 10.3gb of "other" usage on my iPad. How to find it?

New ipad user. I have 10GB of "other" on my ipad. Need to find and remove. How?

That's waaaay too high. This usually indicates corrupt files. Oten, restoring your device from a backup or restoring as a new device and then syncing things over cures this. I'd try restoring from backup first. If that doesn't solve the problem, then restore as a new device is your next best option.

2011 Macbook pro painfully slow, but CPU usage is almost nothing

I brought this macbook almost a year ago now and expect that my warranty has almost run out. At first the computer was fine and i could run almost every program on the computer without effecting performance, the almost suddenly the computer became slow, and gradually got worse. I now have trouble simply opening safari without it freezing for a few seconds to a few minutes. I work on the computer and it regularly crashes causing me to loose data.
i have tried resetting the P-RAM and deleting various files, searching for viruses etc. but nothing seems to make a difference. I would find it hard to format the drive and start again as i have about 300gb of files to backup and no way of doing that.
I can't take it to apple as the comuputer was an insurance replacment for a lost laptop and the warranty is with the insurance company, not apple.
Anything erlse i can try? It's running lion OSX 10.7.4
Thanks
Ryan

If you have an external drive that you can set time machine to back up to that is ideal. There is no way to backup without some form of external media whether it be a single drive, a network drive etc. Since the problem you are describing could be the hard drive it's a good idea to backup before you try anything that might stress the drive.
Any new Apple should be eligible for Apple Care no matter who you got it from, all you have to do is register it in its first year.

My iPad charger banged and now doesn't charge my iPad have tried other USB cables but nothing

Looking for some info on my charger for ipad2. It banged lat night and now won't charge my iPad have tried different USB cables in it but nothing happens

The iPhone charger will likely work, but will be MUCH slower than the one that came with the iPad.
Check the apple online store. You can purchase them.

IPad 2 - I am not able to connect my iPad 2 to my tv anymore using AV adapter.

What is wrong with my iPad 2? I'm not able to conect my iPad to my proyector or tv anymore using AV adaptor. Is there something wrong with my iPad?
I tried it with my wife's iPad 2 and it was the same result. I was not able to connect her iPad to my TV. Niether TV or a proyector couldn't find the device.
Would you please help me? Your help will be well appreciated.

Sounds like the one common thing is the adapter. The cheaper, non apple branded ones tend to fail.
Try another adaptor before worrying about your ipad.

I have my ipad notes linked to gmail and suddenly disappeared when I put the sim card into a new iphone, the funny thing is that almost all disappeared except 4 and with different dates up to two years. Why did this happen? No way to recover them?

Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum. Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is. Apple is not here. It's users, like you.
If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

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 kiwihdrider

Hi 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

New imac 27(Intel based,bought 2013) slow wifi connection with my Verizon fios actiontec router. All other wireless devices in the house(ipad 3gen,MacBook Air ,hp laptop) have a much faster connection. Should I change router settings to G only,etc

New imac 27(Intel based,bought 2013) slow wifi connection with my Verizon fios actiontec router. All other wireless devices in the house(ipad 3gen,MacBook Air ,hp laptop) have a much faster connection. Should I change router settings to G only,switch channel from auto to maybe 6,channel width to 20mhz? Already changed security settings to WPA2. Currently router is running in mixed b and g mode.

If you have one computer running on G they will all run on G. All ROUTERS are backward compatible, in otherwords if you have a group of computers and all of them are N compatible and one or two are G They will all work but the N computers will run at N and those that are G will run at G speed not N.
It can get confusing but really it is simple. The newest is 802.11 AC and ic used with the newest Mac Computers made available in November 2013. So if you have the newest Airport Extreme that is 802.11ac and the newest computers that are AC compliant your speed will be 5 times faster than anything on the market right now.

I've just found that three movies I've bought from iTunes on on my iPad are not showing up on Apple TV or anywhere other than that iPad. What's up with that and will I lose these films if I reset this iPad?

Thanks. The reason this has become an issue is that I recently bought a new Macbook Air that the iPad is not synced to. The one is was synced to was stolen. If I want to sync this iPad to the new Air, won't it be wiped before I'm able to copy these films or am I wrong about that?

TS3899 Cannot send email with new iPad air. Works fine with old iPad and iPhone.

Cannot send email with new iPad air. Works fine with old iPad and iPhone. I have deleted account and reinstalled.

Thanks. I got the problem fixed. Spent time with the Apple folks and was kicked up to a senior advisor. It seems the problem was with my internet provider - Tmie Warner. Remember I could use the old ipad and the iphone to send mail. I checked all the specifics between the three units. It seems that TW is changing over from the RR.com to TWC.com. Since the new ipad air was just set up, it fell under the new TWC mail specifics.

When I attempt to send a text from the new iPad, a dialog box appears with the option to either sign in with Apple ID Password or Create New Account. I try signing in using my Apple ID password but IMessage informs me that email address cannot be verified

When I attempt to send a text from the new iPad, a dialog box appears with the option to either sign in with Apple ID Password or Create New Account. I try signing in using my Apple ID password but IMessage informs me that email address cannot be verified because it is already in use ??? What am I doing wrong?

settings -> iTunes & App Store
click on apple ID listed there
select Sign Out
sign in with the proper account
from then on, when the store ask for your password it should be with the correct ID

How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

You can change the account shortname to whatever you wish to use.
As you can see from my example above. Once you click on the Create User button a new account will be created.
She will need to get her own Apple ID setup so when she starts with iTunes she can open her own iTunes account unless you both want to share the use of the same Apple ID. This can create a bit of confusion if you have your own iPads or iPhones or iPods. As you have discovered it's pretty much one iDevice with one Apple ID.
As for the iTunes library that becomes a more complicated issue.

I have a new iPad with wifi. When I send messages I can see my sons and my husbands but not my phone number. We all have an iPad and all use the same apple ID as iPad the bill. How can I remove their numbers and add mine?

Add another e-mail account to your messages, so people could reach you on that e-mail from messages. As soon as you are online (if you have wifi only iPad) you are able to send and receive messages. i.e. your son can send you a messages from his iPhone addressing it to your (that additional) e-mail address.
