New iPad or Transformer Infinity for reading and annotatingPdf's?

Hello Everyone,
I played with the New iPad today in a store and at least in iBooks, the Pdf files load surprisingly slowly from one page to the other (1 second, not THAT slow). I don't yet own a tablet but I want one for annotating PDF files (orchestra scores) when I'm on the road. When I need to be turning pages quickly, I don't want to have to wait forever for the page to sharpen, especially since it will probably be quite heavier with all my notes on the page... Would a Nexus Transformer Prime or the Transformer Infinity be better suited to my needs, i.e. would it be loading faster with annotated PDF files? I understand this is mainly a CPU issue, and Nexus has more powerful ones. Am I right?
Thanks for your help!

There are a lot of other pfs readers for the iPad.

When recharging the transformer gets extremely hot , so hot i am afraid it will melt down. It takes almost 20 hrs to reach 100%. Any ideas?

This is very unusual.
If you are using cable that came with your iPad than I suggest going to the nearest Apple Store. This does not seem to be a software issue so I can not help you with that

My new Dell PC running Windows 8 does not recognize my iPad or iPhone. Worked OK for iPhone for months but would not work for new iPad. I removed /relaoded iTunes and now it won't recognize either iPad or iPhone.

I have used Sony for the past 5 or 6 years. They recently stopped selling books and migrated their customers to Kobo. In uploading the Kobo site it looks like I added a new Adobe ID. Then my reader and computers were out of sync. When I try to download books I get that they were already downloaded by another user, but also that they are in my library. However, I can't find them, and if I do download, it gives me an error message that the book is DRM protected. How do I get to the point where I can download books again?

How do I get my entire photo stream to my new iPad. I use my ICloud and some of them showed up but most if them did not. I am trying to sync the photos from my phone to an iPad 1 and iPad mini.

How do I get my entire photo stream to my new iPad. I use my ICloud and some of them showed up but most if them did not. I am trying to sync the photos from my phone to an iPad 1 and iPad mini.

Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

A Mac Mini s a computer you can use with the iPad.
YO do not need a computer fro backup since yo can backup to iCloud.
However, sometimes software glitches occur and require connecting the device to a compute to restore vi iTuunes.
You can control a computer via an iPod with an app like TeamViewer or LogMeIn. There are others too.
You can also use an iPad a a SECONDAY monitor for a computer. with other apps.
You need a dedicated monitor, keyboard and mouse to setup the Mini. You can use a PC USB mouse and keyboard.

Error message when connecting to iTunes says my new iPad 4 can't be connected as it requires version 10.7 or later. Surely a new iPad already has the latest version, and if it doesn't how do I get it?

Not the iPad - your computer must be running iTunes 10.7 in order to sync. It has nothing to do with iTunes on the iPad.
You can download iTunes for your computer here.

Been using an ipad 2 without passcode for quite some time. While upgrading to ios 7, I enabled Find Iphone on the Ipad. It asked for passcode and I gave one. Now I forgot it.

Been using an ipad 2 without passcode for quite some time. While upgrading to ios 7, I enabled Find Iphone on the Ipad. It asked for passcode and I gave one. Now I forgot it. Connected it iTunes (on my windows 8 system) with which I sync and that too required an update as old version of itunes cannot read ios7. Problem is itunes does not want to get updated. Some vague error on not having right to write a file in ProgramData folder wheras as an admin i have full rights. Next I downloaded the install file from itunes site - no luck it would not install. Then I tried to remove itunes - it does not want to go. Am at wits end... Is the option only to restore it as a new Ipad?

Place the iPhone into recovery mode and restore the iPhone with iTunes on your computer.

Can anyone explain the advantage of iPod vs iPad over Kobo Vox for reading iBooks?

Can anyone explain the advantage of iPod vs iPad over Kobo Vox for reading iBooks?

Thank you Alan and know you are right. I really can do all I need with my netbook and ereader and do not need the ipad. I think I just wanted something new and felt I may enjoy using it a lttle more than the netook. But it would be a waste just to buy one when I donlt acutally need it And, donl't think it is worth the extra money for me the get the 4g wireless capability since I doubt I would really need it often.
I may treat myself to the Ipad for the color, touchpad and fun to use but it is very expensive considering how little it will do for me no more than the things I want it for. It woudl be and expensive luxuray, I can do without. I actually need t learn how to use more of the function avaiable first. Maybe I should take up playing games and learning to take digital pictures so I can at least load them. If I could learn to do that and take a decent picture, I could start selling back all the "stuff" I have purchased on ebay. haha - I do have a nice doll collection, I would like to sell. I just do not have room for anything else. That was the primary purpose for the Kindle Ereader I bought and enjoy so much,
But, I will hold onto the thought for a while and see how it goes and what other comments I get, If I think I cannot live without it, then I will have to rethink which one to buy, I coud get the 32 g if I did not have to pay for the 4g wireless. And, if I knew I could get help to teach me how to use and enjoy all the functions, I would give it more serious consideration. My granddaugther got one for Christmas and that was what got me interested in it. I love the size of the screen and it had good color and was fast. She even had an application where she could write her notes and it would convert into typed words. That was a neat feature, If you could print it?
But thanks again for your comments and I will check later to see I get any other feedback.

TS3694 I have a brand new iPad 4. I plugged in and it told me that there was new software available. I went to update it and now it tells me "unknown error 1656". Now the pad is in permanent recovery mode and I can't do anything with it. Any info?

How many music cd's will the new Ipad air hold in 16g, 32g and 64g?

How many music cd's will the new Ipad air hold in 16g, 32g and 64g? Thanks much, Greg

That is hard to say accuratetely. As it depends on the format and length of audio. If you know the average file size of the Audio files you wish to transfer you can easily calculate.
Otherwise its like asking how many books fit in a 2 by 2 box The answer will vary largely by type and size of book.
For a base comparison normal mp3's at around 3 minutes in length take up about 1MB per minute. so you could probably fit 20,000 of those in a 64GB iPad. considering some space is taken up by apps and OS.
Double the size for more quality, and you'll get about half. so only 10,000.
But at the end it will depend on the format, and file size of the audio.

If it's an Intel Mac, you can upgrade it to Mac OS X 10.6.8.
If it's a PowerPC Mac, you need to use these instructions and/or iTunes Match to put content on the iPad.
