New iPad and Gmail as Exchange

I tried setting my gmail up using the Exchange method that works on all other iOS devices. It allows you to save the account and gives you check marks however it constantly says connection to server failed. I have deleted and re-added the account and it is the same thing. I deleted and re-added the account on my iPhone 4 on iOS 5.1 with no issues. Has anyone gotten Exchange Gmail working on the New iPad?

I had it working a few days ago perfectly on the new ipad. I exchanged that ipad today for a white ipad instead of a black one that i had. I restored from icloud but the gmail sync account wan't there so i readded it again but not working.
I have been trying to figure out for the last 4 hours why and have searched and searched. I have tried deleting and adding, no luck. I have tried adding different gmail accounts, no luck. I have tried adding several gmail accounts to another iphone 4, no luck, another ipad 1 no luck, Reset the ipad to orginal factory setting with nothing on there and the first thing i did is try to add my google mail account with calendar and contacts set to sync as well, no luck. The funny thing is the account that i orginally had on the ipad is working perfectly on an iphone that has had it on there for over a year!
I keep thinking it is an issue with google and them adding NEW account registrations to server. Makes no sense, because the same account works on my iphone4. the only common variable that they all have is that they all have tried to be setup in the last 5 hours and all using microsoft exchange with the setting that is outlined by google. If i use add account and use "google mail" it works for my mail and calendar but not contacts. Can't get the exchange optoin to work and have tried on 4 different ios devices with 2 different accounts and no luck.

Apple does not take trade-ins. You'll have to look for a dealer that does, though you'll probably get more for the iPad 1 if you sell it yourself.

Hotmail and Gmail as Exchanges

Hi, I have configured hotmail and gmail as exchange accounts so to sync or use my google contacts on my iPhone 4S (5.1.1).
Latetly when I try sending emails using gmail they are being sent via hotmail exchange instead of m.google.com. I don't remember until when this was working but was working atleast before 5.1.1.
Currently I have my hotmail account disabled/inactive (by switching off mail) to make my gmail work as it should be.
Will appritiate your help in addressing this issue.
I have deleted both accounts and setup from scratch one after another and issue still remains
Thank you,
Ravi.

Try to remove Hotmail account
*** Power off iPhone ***
Power on iPhone
Add Hotmail account and test.
I had the same exact problem after updating to iOS 5.1.1. I called into Apple Care (2-3 hrs) and went to the Genius Bar (2hrs). They all claimed it was my fault for forwarding email accounts. One suggested solution was to restore and setup as new, yet the problem still occured after I let them restore the iPhone. Some how I believe in iOS 5.1.1 the active sync is messed up. Everyone instead of taking ownership of the problem all says it's Hotmail's issue or Gmail's issue. Why is it not Apple's issue who wrote the code for iOS 5.1.1? Prior to v5.1.1 they didn't have a Hotmail (Exchange) setup. It was setup via smtp/mapi. The simple reboot inbetween adding/removing accounts works. (IMHO, this sounds like an Apple iOS issue to me.)

I have a new iPad, and it wants to load all my old emails

I have a new ipad and now that I have added my gmail account to the pad, it thinks that all the old emails (12K) that I have read on my macbook should be treated as new emails. Is there a way to do a mass NO so that I don't keep getting the message "you have ... unread messages, do you want to download them now?"

Sounds like it is iMap, which functions by synchronizing clients (your Macs) to its server, the behaviour you're seeing is normal.
I guess the next question is 'how can I change that'
Make a folder outside of the iMap structure and move mail into it
And
I believe you can limit the iPad (only) to a fixed amount of mail (time delimited) to download, look in the settings for your Gmail account (on the iPad)

HT1665 does the smart cover fit on both the new iPad and the iPad 2?

I have both the iPad2 and i just got the new iPad and I'm wondering if I could put on the smart cover that i was using for my iPad 2 on the new iPad.
Thankyou very much,
Yours truley,
Mohammed Madooh

it depends on when you bought the smart cover -Apple changed the polarity of the magnets on the new iPad - Smarcovers bought in late 2011 or 2012 should work - those bought before then will not - for awhile Apple was offering exchanges for free on smart covers that dont work on the new iPad - dont know if they still are - you can call an Apple store or Apple online

Did you already activate iCloud on your iPad, Settings > iCloud.
Then on your computer you can go to https://www.icloud.com/

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.

Hi Marg42,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
First, your husband can create his own Apple ID via the web, computer, or iPad, if he hasn't already:
My Apple ID
https://appleid.apple.com
iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2731
Next, he can sign out of the Apple services that are currently using your Apple ID on your old iPad, and sign in with his own.
This article has instructions for doing so for specific Apple services:
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
Alternately, he can erase the device and set it up as new using the steps in this article:

How do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad? I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad? I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days.

TA22652 I purchased a new iPad and my daughter uses my iPad. On my account her email address appears. How can I get my account back?

I purchased a new iPad and my old iPad went to my daughter. I have a problem though in that my iTunes account has been taken over by her email address. If I want to redeem a voucher on my account her email address appears. How do I correct this?

Did you take a backup in between taking the photos and deleting them ? If you did then try restoring to that backup (you will need to restore the whole iPad, you can't just do the Photos app) and they should be put back.

When you create new albums directly on your iPad and 'copy' photos into them you are effectively just creating pointers to the orginal photos, you aren't creating copies of the photos - so if you then delete the original photo you will also be deleting all pointers to and therefore be removing it from all albums that you've copied it into (you should have got a warning when deleting the photo that that would happen).

I cannot log on to ITunes to set up Home sharing between my new IPAD and AppleTV. Therfe is not even the typical home screen for me to log on to my account at APlle Store or ITunes?

I have a new IPAD and just bought APple TV. Need to set up home sharing on my account and have followed Support options wherein you log into ITunes, choose advanced, then allow Home sharing. There is no place to even sign in to ITunes as i have always seen before. Cannot start ITunes on Laptop (linked to IPAD) at all but can from Browser. Trying to share content from my IPAD and APple TV.
I had no problem doing so on my home PC and APple TV but not IPAD?

What does "can from browser" mean?
Trying to share content from my IPAD and APple TV.
You don't share content from AppleTV (as it contains no content) and you can AirpPlay from iPad to AppleTV, not share content.
To turn on Home Sharing on the iPad, Settings > Store.
THis allow soyu to view the content of the iTune slibrary on your comnoputer.

A new iPad and new Express, but no Mac - can't set up network!

Here's a puzzler (for me at least) --
Mom bought a new iPad and new Airport Express. She has no Mac, so no iTunes and no syncing. Her iPad does NOT have Airport Utility. She's starting from scratch.
Her Express is connected to her Cox Cable Cisco modem, shich shows steady green for good internet connection. The express flashes amber, I assume becuase there's no network set up.
Her iPad sees the Express -- Wi-Fi in the Settings menu has "Apple ..." where the network name appears -- and the wireless signal 'fan' shows strong in the top bar.
In iPad > Settings > Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi shows 'on', no editable network shows, and no "create network" option shows.
She can't get Airport Utility without internet or syncing to a Mac, and she can't see any way to create a network, or see any existing network that she can forget or manage.
Is this simple Cox Cable > Cisco modem > Express wireless > iPad a workable setup?
Is there any way to create the wireless network without Airport Utility?
Thanks!
Otto
P.S. The iPad isn't pristine connection-wise. It was temporarily connected to a public Wi-Fi to complete setting up an iCloud account, and so get to the home screen for the first time. BUT, my mom is ancient and fearful, and I don't want to send her out to find public Wi-Fi to set up a a credit card account so she can use the app store to get utility if I don't have to. Help.

Thanks CRMDVM -- ...which means, I think, that she will need to go out into the wide world to find public wireless. Makes me wish Airport Utility was one of the stock apps that came with the iPad.
Any other ideas? Any way to manually configure on an iPad? Anything? Thanks.
Otto
