On the iPad 4

My bookmarks vanish in Safari.  This just started a couple of days ago and when browsing with Safari, I open the bookmarks to go to the next web site and the whole panel is blank.  No bookmarks listed.
I have some pretty important ones from NOAA I use to get river flood stages and I can't have river gage charts and text reports to just vanish right when I need them.
I had to download and install the Google Chrome web browser for it for which I have an account with and they have my bookmarks intact.
There is not a web browser in any computer on the planet where the bookmarks just vanish.  They do reapear when I shut the tablet off and then power it back on and bingo, there they are.  BUT, when I browse beyond one web site, they vanish again.
The tablet also will not let me store any new ones.  They will not store and display in the bookmarks panel.
Right now, I am having to just "not" use Safari and use Chrome instead.  My tablet has 8.9GB of free space on it so it cannot be a storage problem.
Does anybody have any idea on how to keep Safari from doing that or to force the bookmarks to display.  They have to still be there in order to reapear on the following power up.

I agree with you that they have to be there if they keep reappearing. There have been a number of people posting about Safari Bookmarks disappearing under a number of different circumstances. I first saw it in discussions where the person had just updated the iOS and their bookmarks vanished. I don't know if this will work permanently - or work for you at all - but I have seen it work for other users. Give it a try.
Close Safari completely in the recents tray and then reboot your iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • OK  My mother at 92 has just mastered the iPad - I've set up an itunes account for her and want one simple thing explaining.  She has a non iphone mobile and imessage on ipad so she can easily see it and use it HELP

    Anyone who can expalin me how i can connect her non iphone (it lights up as she is very deaf like a chritmas tree so no i cant give he an iphone before anyone suggests) so i can get here to text via imessage on the ipad please.

    I was hoping some tech wiz would have found an answer for you. The app below vibrates and flashes. Is that the kind of thing you're looking for? I'm not sure, because I am thinking you want your Mom's phone to somehow connect with ipad.
    If you read the link I previously posted, please read the comments also. Maybe a suggestion in one of those would help.

    One of the dangers of hearing loss is the inability to hear audible alerts or warnings. Tap Tap is a brilliant app that allows those with hearing loss to react to sounds. When it detects noise, the app will vibrate and flash to alert the user. If the door knocks, or someone is speaking or shouting, the user will know. If the smoke alarm goes off, Tap Tap will vibrate and flash. The sensitivity can be adjusted and the app can run in the background if desired, though this may use more battery power. This is a must-have app for anyone with significant hearing loss.

  • How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat.

I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat. We had this working using Messages and Facetime (on the new machine) talking to my existing iChat account. One day last week, when Facetime rang, my kids answered on the iPad. Dang! Now it's all fouled up! The new iMac won't see my AIM account name and shows that I'm offline, because the iPad is off. We were able to call using "most recent call" in Facetime, but now I can't go and control that new iMac remotely to help with some email concerns the user is having. I'm trying to not personalize this too much, but it's grandkids talking to Grandma and Mom and Dad trying to solve new machine hiccups. Normally, I could just go in via iChat and control the other machine and troubleshoot, but I can't do it with Facetime only. My buddy list doesn't see  the other computer even though we are connected on Facetime right now. My name is not highlighted for the other computer. What could have gone so wrong?
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    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.

  • Can there be a hardware issue on the iPad that causes you to unable to join wifi networks or only if you are within 5 feet of routers?

    I used to be able to connect my iPad to my house wifi network walking all over my house then one day it stopped.  When i tried to connect to my network I would get an message saying "Unable to Join network".  I found that if i was within 5 feet of my router it would connect and work just fine.  At the same time I tried it at multiple other networks that I have before (girlfriends and other friends houses) and could not connect with same issue.  Only place I can connect is my work wifi.

  • I have Pages for the iPad and desktop, how can I save it besides the iCloud on my computer and not the iPad?

    I have purchased Pages for my desktop iMac and Macbook Air.  I also have it on my iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch.  They are all synced through the icloud, but the space is now starting to fill up.  (I am the guy asking trivia questions and it fills up with A LOT of questions).  BUT, after each week, I can get rid of 3 documents (16 questions per document).  So, I have roughly 80 games worth of trivia and half of which I would like to save on my computer.  I can pull it up on my computer and it shows that I have that from the icloud, but not on the desktop.  I have lots of space on my desktop to save these, but the iPad is not as large for space.
    How can I transfer roughly 40 documents (from pages) from the icloud to the desktop, (for permanent storage)?  do I have to do each one individually, or is there a select documents you want to move?  Then I can delete from ipad as it seems to take up space on both the ipad and the icloud.
    Thank you in advance.

    Just ignore that post above. I tried to edit it but was too late. Deleting a document from iPad does delete it from iCloud.
    Ignore the line 'There is no data limit on iCloud.com so you could keep all your documents on there' because of course then they will sync to your devices and that's not what you want.
    Sorry, for the confusion.
    Removing documents from iCloud:
    iCloud: Remove documents from iCloud
    You can also move documents to your computer by opening Pages, select iCloud and all the documents you want to move, and drag them onto your desktop (or folder).

  • My wife and I share the iPad. Can we set up separate accounts to log in (like on our Mac)?

    My wife and I share the iPad. Can we set up separate accounts to log in (like on our Mac)?

    Good question, but I'm 99.9% certain the answer is "no".  Here are some considerations:
    Think of the heritage of iOS.  It really started with iPhones and maybe iPods.  These devices cost a whole lot less than a Mac.  They are generally not thought of as shared (with exceptions, of course, as is true for you).
    Think of the backup process.  i-devices typically sync with one iTunes on one computer.  How would an i-device with multiple users enstantiate this?
    Anyway, all this is to say I'm convinced you cannot do what you're inquiring about.

  • Is there a way of making the Edge Commons parallax effect work smoothly with DPS on the iPad?

    I want to create a feature for an iPad magazine utilising the parallax effect shown here...
    Parallax Scrolling Made Easy (Adobe Edge Animate Online Week, Episode 9) - YouTube
    I am using Digital Publishing Suite to publish to an iPad.  I ran a test and the effect partially works, but not smoothly.
    As you scroll down the animation does not play.  Once you finish scrolling the animation then jumps to whichever point has been reached on the timeline, rather than animating as you scroll down the page.
    Is there a way to get the same animation effect through DPS that you see in the browser?  Or is it not compatible?
    Thanks!

    As lllaass said, you can't.

  • Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.,

    Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.

    Absolutely!
    Install Splashtop2 on the PC and enable it to be controlled or ran from iPad or Reflection to simply allow iPad to serve as PC unwired monitor. With Splashtop and an Apple TV connected, you use the smartboard as usual, yet the PC and iPad can see the same content. The impaired child can even interact with the Smart Board via the iPad as if he were writing directly on the big screen. Erasing functions can be done by touching the Smart Board manual controls. Several variables are in play that cause this lack of functionality:
        Apple won't permit PC software that infringes its proprietary apps.
        Smart Board companies refuse to develop iPad apps because they feel threatened and are being replaced by iPads
        School districts think Apple TV is meant for copyright infringement and could expose them to safe harbor lawsuits
        Network administrators make it impossible to login Apple TVs because they don't want the streaming occurring
        Classrooms are not able to keep up with the technology of using the iPad
        Clicker companies refuse to play with iPad because they see it as a potential threat to their core business clients
        Apple is not working as hard as it could to exploit its capabilities in education, thus losing money in iPad sales
    The bottom line is that we educators and technology developers are hurting our childern with petty conflicts.

  • Bug? My events on the iPad iCal app aren't shown in the year view if they are more than two years in the future.

    My events on the iPad iCal app aren't shown in the year view if they are more than two years in the future even though I can see them on the month, week and day view. Any suggestions on how to fix it? I've tried it all. I called the apple support and they checked on their iPads. They all did the same and they couldn't help me. They suggested trying this way. I'd like to be able to plan a few years ahead and the year view would make thing so easy!
    Is this a bug?

    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
    Then reboot your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Why does iCal and Calendar on the iPad do not search before year 2000?

    I have used for many years with great pleasure the agenda of the Psion MX palmtop computer with GUI and touch screen, dating from 1998. All applications (Office apps, WAP internet plus agenda) on this machine are faultless and this Symbian 50 computer never crashes, uses only two AA cells a month and for me it is almost the perfect mobile companion. But Psion has closed down many years ago and the flexible cable between the moving screen and he mainboard breaks down after 8 years of daily service. Spare parts are hard to get by nowadays and so I decided to switch over to the iPad. My agenda covers data from 1980 on and for me it is a the book of my personal and working life after 1980. So I exported the data from the Psion to my MacBook Pro and synchonized these with my iPad 3. I was a bit shocked to discover that iCal on the mac can *not* "Go To" dates before the year 2000. You have to click by hand every month to reach e.g. 1980 (there is no year tab). Searching on data in history works fine on the mac (backward at least until 1980) But on the iPad somtimes the data in these ancient times is not shown at all, you have first to select your calendars 'off' and 'on' again. Searching for old dat doesn't work either, so again you can only visit those data by tapping by hand, hapily here for previous years. It seems that Apple is not very interested in history, where both the iPad and the Mac don't support looking back more then 12 years. Having programmed myself some financial applications in the 1980th I assume these are vey small missing points in the two applications. Didn't anyone at Apple use these calendars for more than any weeks or did they never tested those for serious use? The calendars both function from 1900 on, so even Einstein could have used them som time of his life. Please do some fixing of these apps (it is *really* a small job) and make these applications more coherent to the excellent hardware of Apple

  • How can I print from the ipad

    I need to be able to print boarding passes the night before a flight and an occasional form sent through email. Trying to see if I can stop carrying my laptop.  I can usually find a printer with USB connection so I am guessing I just buy the camera connection kit? I only see references to airprint printers (which don't appear to include many printers I have encountered).
    Thanks

    ...  I can usually find a printer with USB connection so I am guessing I just buy the camera connection kit?
    Sounds like a reasonable thing to expect, but no, that won't work. The iPad is forcing the long-promised paperless office upon us.
    A lot of airport kiosks can read the checkin barcode right off the iPad and print a boarding pass for the TSA goons to scrutinize. Don't expect the government to go paperless any time soon.
    AirPrint printers have been slow to appear, but at least the selection is growing. In the meantime there are other alternatives, but you would need to install Printopia on a Mac with a shared printer, or the equivalent on a PC if there is one (I don't know of any).

  • I work with a child who is not able to move his neck.  to see the ipad, it has to be placed high above the table (eye level).  he needs access with a mouse - is this possible?

    I work with a child who has physical disability and cannot move his neck.  The ipad needs to be eyelevel in order for him to see it, but he also is not able to raise his hand and would need mouse access...  is this possible?

    I'm sorry but the iPad does not work with a mouse, there is no cursor on the iPad and the iPad was designed as a touch screen device so a mouse will not work.
    I really don't know what to suggest other than this new device, and it might be worth a look. I assume that the child can use his hands for a keyboard.

  • Is there a way to connect two analog mics recording in stereo to the iPad for recording?

    I currently use an M-Audio Mobile Pre to connect two microphones to my MacBook Pro via USB. If I wanted to use my iPad (or even iPhone) instead, is there a way to get the stereo input into the iPad? Would the Line 6 Sonic Port sold via Apple work? Would it take 2 separate inputs and deliver stereo to Garage Band or another recording app? Or is there another way?

    Exactly that -- the procedure is described in the online Help: InDesign Help | Text variables
    Now every time you insert the variable named "# of potatoes", you'll see the text "50" appear (with a minimal rectangular marker to indicate it's a variable), and when you want another number of potatoes, all you have to do is adjust the text in the Variables dialog.

  • Looking for a high-res drawing app for the iPad

    I've tried a few of the available iPad drawing apps like Sketchbook Pro and Brushes. It's a little hard to tell, because documentation tends to be short on details, but it appears that most of them (with the exception of Brushes) only let you work and export images at 1024 by 768 resolution. That isn't really high enough resolution for professional work.
    Brushes is the only exception I've found. You work on the iPad in Brushes at 1024 by 768, but they have this OS X app that can convert your exported images to a higher res.
    To me that's crazy awkward and time-consuming, and I think Brushes is OK as a drawing app, but not necessarily what I'm looking for.
    Can anyone give me some better insight into the matter?
    Is there some underlying technical reason that all of these apps have a hard limit of 1024 by 768 resolution?
    Is there an app other than Brushes that can produce pro-level (high resolution) image files on the iPad?
    Thanks,
