What makes the New ipad 3 heavier than ipad 2?

Hi I had the ipad 1 , and ipad 2, loved the weight so light!!!!
what makes the ipad 3 (I now have it) heavier than the ipad 2?
Thank you...

Bigger battery to compensate the extra energy used by the Retina display. It should be heavier.
Thicker because the pixels of the Retina display need to be elevated so that signals don't cross each other to eliminate fuzzy images.
Hope it helps.

Security questions are different than questions I originally answered can't access iTunes for new ipad

Need to answer security questions to access new iPad, security questions are different than what I originally answered.

Doubtful.

My early iPad will not allow for a newer version of software than 5.1.1.

My early iPad will not allow for a newer version of software than 5.1.1 is there a way of loading on a newer version?

Hi,
If you have an original iPad, that is limited to iOS 5.1.1 and cannot go any further. All other iPads and iPad Minis can get up to iOS 7.0.4.
Hope this helps!

Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

You cannot set up more than one user account on the iPad if that is what you mean.
Obviously families will share an iPad, but they are really meant to be single user devices with one Apple ID only on the iPad. Multiple ID's on one iPad can become a bit of a hassle to deal with.
There is no way to lock apps or email accounts so that can become an issue as well. If you use the built in mail app for email, whoever is using the iPad can read your email.

Just received a new Ipad Air, but IOS version is older than current IPad...can not load backup...How do I upgrade IOS version?

Just received a new Ipad Air, but IOS version is older than current IPad...can not load backup...How do I upgrade IOS version?

In order to upgrade the new Air 2, I had to select "set up as new" from the menu. So, after the IOS upgrade is done, how do I "restore" the data that is backed up on icloud from my old Ipad? I don't see a menu item for that . . .
Thanks

My new IPad Mini tells me that I need Itunes 10.7 when connected to my Apple computer. When I try to up grade, I'm told that there is no newer version than what I have. IPad mini says I have system version 6.1.3. The ITunes version on the Mini is unknown.

The problem is that your Mac software is quite old. You must have a version of OS X on your Mac earlier than 10.6.8 (current is 10.8.3), so your particular version of OS X cannot support any later version of iTunes. (The current iTunes version is 11.0.2). In particular, your iTunes on your computer cannot deal with your iPad which has software that is much more current than your OS X operating system (and Mac iTunes).

Have new iPhone 5s and older iPad ( looking to buy new iPad ) question for both is should I hook them up to y computer and back up the computer on each devise and sink and than the next one. The second question is should I do the I pad first cause it has photos in my email that have not been downloaded and it is one of or is the first model

No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

I spent more than 18 hours to sync 5000 photos (about 20 GB) from my PC to new iPad... Whether it was too long?

I spent more than 18 hours to sync 5000 photos (about 20 GB) from my PC to new iPad... Whether it was too long?

First of all, did they all sync? Are they all there and they look alright?
Depending on how they were shot, the sync re-optimizes each one for the iPad display. If you shoot in RAW or have a very high resolution camera, that process can be pretty slow (also depends on how old & how fast your computer is as it is the machine doing the rendering of the images).
As long as it worked, I'd say you are fine. Enjoy the new iPad.

Does the new Ipad have a usb other than to charge it up?

I am thinking of getting the new ipad and wondered if it had a usb port other than to charge it up?

The iPad doesn't have a USB port. You can get a camera connection kit which has a USB connection as part of it and which allows you to copy photos and videos to the Photos app, but you can't use it to copy content off the iPad and you can't connect an external drive with it - though there are some wifi-enabled drive that allow you to stream content to the iPad.

The new iPad: Does your SmartCover wake up the new iPad a little slower than iPad 2?

Hey guys! I got my new iPad (32GB with iOS 5.1.1) one month ago. Now I found it takes longer to wake it up than my old iPad 2 with SmartCover. I have to wait for 1-2 seconds before the screen lit up. However, iPad 2 only take half seconds or less, seems instantly...
I wonder if anyone has the same problem like me? Is it something related to the iOS or can I change for a faster one (if the problem is hardware-related)? Thanks for your contribution.

Hi Simon,
Thanks for your detailed reply. I can't see any slow response on iPad 2 even with lots of app running background I think may be this issue is by design for iPad 3, or may be caused by the iOS 5.1.1 as my iPad 2 still running its original iOS 5.0.1...
This issue is rarely reported, so may be it's an exception for both of us.
I was concerned about this, but not that much now. The stunning Retina makes me forgot it! I bet you feel the same
Another thing, does your new iPad is a little darker than iPad2 when setting to maximum brightness?
Kim,

Does the new iPad air 2 get hotter than the previous iPads?

I Have noticed that the new iPad Air 2 seems to be warmer than my 4th. Generation ipad. It is not so hot that I can't hold it, but I definitely notice a difference from the air 2 & the 4th. Generation iPad.
Thanks for any feed back.

Hi The iPad Air is very slim I retuned mine for a refund viberates on speaker battery not lasting And yes it did get warmer and it's a bit flimsy. Got iPad Air 1 now 32G £359.00 now was £479.00 No problems. Cheers Brian

I set up my ipad as a new ipad rather than syncing it to my iphone. Can I still do this or is it too late??

I set up my ipad a s new ipad rather than syncing with my iphone. Can I still do this now that it has been set up or is it too late?

Depends on what you want to sync.
Contacts and calendars - yes with icloud.
photos yes with computer and future pictures with icloud.
Apps - does not make since, since apps are different for ipad and iphone.

I got a new iPad last month and set up through iCloud. Still have a message on my screen that it is still restoring from iCloud. How do I get it to complete other than having to rest me start again?

I Got a new iPad last month and sent up in the usually way and syncd to iCloud. However it has ever since shown a comment saying:
Restoring from from I cloud backup
i I have no idea how to get it to complete. Or do I need to re-set and start again?
Help!

Where do you see this message? I know it can take a few hours to restore from an iCloud backup if you had lots of apps, data, movies, camera roll photos etc on it, but it should not take days and daus to finish.
Have you restarted or reset your iPad since you got it? Not the reset that you are talking about - I mean the system reset. Try either or both and see if the message goes away.
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Viewing angle (with no colour shift) on new iPad much narrower than older iPads

I just got a new iPad yesterday and the new display's resolution is magical!! I am unfortunately experiencing the yellow tinted screen that others are, but I'm hopeful this will improve over a short time as any glues involved perhaps dry. I THINK perhaps it's already improved though this could be my imagination, hard to tell. It's also clear on a totally black screen that it fails to go as dark as my iPad 2, which itself failed to go as dark as my iPad 1. Still, that resolution, spectacular...
I am however also experiencing a very narrow viewing angle, especially in the vertical direction, it's the most worse when held in normal portrait orientation with the cameras at the top, if I tilt the top of the iPad away from me then the entire screen colour shifts to yellow quite strongly within about 10 degrees or so. I'll shoot some video of it at some point compared to the iPad 2. I wonder if the colour yellow could be linked to the general yellow tint that can be seen on whites even in perfectly straight viewing. But I also wonder if the new retina display just has a much narrower viewing angle without colour shift compared to the older iPads.
Would love to hear how other people's new iPad screens are performing in this regard. Are they all shifting as they're tilting, especially in that vertical tilt I described?
Cheers

I have the same problem. Here is the pic I took to compare with my old iPad 2.
