New iPad, lost progress on games. How to reinstate?
New iPad, backed up old to computer, restored to new iPad from computer. Signed into Game Center, it was there with my id. Launched game Dino Hunt, lost all progress in the game. It did not find progress and ask me if I wanted to resume the old game, but started a brand new history. How do ?I get the old game progress reinstated?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can)

I just got a new ipad and downloaded a game from the game center. I went to "games" and can't find it. Where did it go? Help!
You download games in the App store app.
Game Center is used for scores and linking with friends. -

If you have synched your iPod with iTunes all your Apps will be saved in iTunes.
You can also see the Apps you have purchased in the history of your iTunes account. -
I'm going from an IPAD1 to an IPAD4. If I back up my IPAD to the cloud and then download to the new IPAD, will it retain game data so I won't have to start my games over?

Yes, however you would be much better backing it up to iTunes to do this rather than iCloud. -
Lost progress in game center account after re-create new apple id account by same email
My situation is that my apple id was locked (I have no idea why) but I failed when tried to unlock it by Send Email Authentication or Answer Secure question (I noted the questions & answers before, then I'm quite sure I have correct stuffs), no idea why it didn't work.
At that time, I did a silly action that I created a new apple id with the same email address (I had thought that it had to be impossible because Apple ID don't allow to create apple id with an unavailable email address and my apple id was just locked, not deleted or changed email). Unfortunately, I could create a new apple id with the same email address of the old one, why it's possible
Then, the new apple id (same email address, same id, even same password ) but all my stuffs on icloud, progress on game center was replaced by EMPTY . hjx, I have a Clash Of Clan account with level 113, I contacted Clash Of Clan admin, they replied that they just could help me to do any necessary query to support if apple require, but they could not restore my progress to the new apple id (new but old)
I appreciate for any recommendation to help me get my stuff back.
Thanks for reading!I was able to correct this by going into Safari privacy settings and changing the accept cookies from Never to only visited.

I have a Macpro computer and I want to know how to traspass photos or files to a new ipad model since it has no USB port.
Thans for your help!You can transfer photos or documents to your iPad using iTunes. Connect your iPad to your computer using the cable that came with your iPad and sync it with your computer to copy your photos to it.
With documents, you can use iCloud if you have Pages in your iPad. Go to iCloud > iWork and drag your documents in that page -

I had to reboot my kids ipad because she lost her passcode, in doing this it was like a new ipad everything was lost including her camera which i thought was part of the ipad. can anyone help
You are correct. The camera is part of the iPad and the app is part of the iOS so it cannot be deleted or downloaded again.
Assuming that your daughter has the iPad 2 or newer (the original iPad did not have a camera) ....
Swipe from screen to screen to look for it.
Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.
Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. -

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I had my iPad 2 replaced by Applestore today. On the new iPad I tried to restore from iCloud backup point but was told I was unable to do this as the new iPad needed to have the latest running system iOS 7 loaded. Is there a way I can do this so I can get my iCloud backup or do I need to go back to Applestore and get an iPad preloaded with iOS 7?
If you feel comfortable you can do the Update to iOS 7 yourself and after you have successfully done that... then Restore your iCloud Back Up.
If you are not comfortable in doing it yourself... Then go back to the Apple Store and get them to do it.
They will be Happy to assist you. -
New iPad 2 charger is faulty, how to get new 1 from apple
I just unbox my iPad yesterday. I cant charge my iPad with the iPad charger. But I can charge it with my iPhone charger. Is the new iPad charger faulty? Can I claim warranty for the charger? If can, what should I do to get a new charger from apple.
Yes, any local Apple retailer. You would have received a receipt via email when you made your online purchase. If you can't find it then you can log into your Apple store account to find your list of purchases and obtain a copy of the purchase receipt. If you have the iPad with you and have already registered it with Apple, then the retailer can verify the purchase using the iPad's serial number.
