  • I have a problem with my new ipad air 64g with cellular. When I off my ipad for a long period of time ( around 2 hours), my ipad air freeze. Nothing is showing on screen with any button except by pressing reboot (home   on/off button)

    I have a problem with my new ipad air 64g with cellular. When I off my ipad for a long period of time ( around 2 hours), my ipad air freeze. Nothing is showing on screen with any button except by pressing reboot (home   on/off button). Anyone out there can help. Thanks.

    I have a 64GB iPad Air WiFi+Cellular (Verizon), and I don't see the issues you are describing.  First I would suggest that you update your iPad to the newest iOS update.  If that doesn't help, then you may want to schedule an appointment at an Apple Genius Bar.  If you go this route, I suggest that you let the iPad sleep for long enough for the problem to arise before you go to your appointment.

  • Multiple problems with touchscreen on iPad Air

    I bought an iPad Air right when it came out last year, and it has started to give me problems with the touchscreen. These problems don't happen all the time, just enough to be annoying - but not enough that I can discern any pattern. So I can't figure out why this might be happening. I know that if I take it to the Apple Store to show them, everything will work perfectly - like when you take your car to the mechanic and it won't make that weird sound.
    So I videoed some of them. There are four specific problems.
    First, sometimes I can't slide to get to my passcode screen (apologies for the cardinal sin of a vertical video - half the time when I go for my phone and start filming the problem it own't do it again, so I hurried): http://youtu.be/LvFH6intO_8
    Next, when using the keyboard, sometimes pressing one key (like Shift or Delete) will cause other keys to depress: http://youtu.be/HzqYSXJkP_s
    Today, I couldn't get the multi-touch gesture -- the one to close the app and return to the home screen -- to work: http://youtu.be/bPmku7XEE2I
    I've also had problems when trying to change the screen brightness. Note that the AirDrop menu keeps popping up, even though I'm only touching the brightness slider: http://youtu.be/7jBszQJQjpE
    I've tried resetting the iPad, cleaning the screen, ensuring my hands are clean, etc. Nothing seems to work, but after a while it'll just go back to normal operation (you can see that in the second video, I press the Home button and reopen Twitter and after that the multi-touch gesture works).
    Anyone else having this problem?

    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Can anyone help me with tethering an ipad air onto an iphone 5c?

    Can anyone tell me how to tether an ipad air onto an iphone 5c?

    Sorry - to be a little more clear:
    I can tether other machines (macbook pro and several tyes of windows machines) to the iphone 5c withoout any problem. Also the ipad (air) works just fine with my wife's independent wifi hotspot. The problem is that the ipad does not work (either bluetooth or wifi) with the iphone. Is this a deliberate policy on the part of Apple?

  • I have a problem with my new Apple Air. It usually takes few seconds for the laptop to be untouched in order to be locked. So sometimes when the screen starts to get dim in order to lock, I immediately touch the keypad to avoid locking the laptop

    I have a problem with my new Apple Air. It usually takes few seconds for the laptop to be untouched in order to be locked. So, sometimes when the screen starts to get dim in order to lock, I immediately touch the keypad to avoid locking the laptop, the result is a black screen appears with no responding to anything from pressing the keyboard to pressing the touchpad. It takes few minutes for the laptop to open again and then a message appears saying that there was a problem with the lock security.
    What is happening exactly?

    It sounds like your sleep timers are set to too low of a value.  Go to System Preferences -> Energy Saver and set both timers to longer times.  The computer sleep timer should be a longer time than the display sleep timer.

  • Problems with the new iPad and Joikuspot premium after iOS 6

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing serious problems with my new iPad after last iOS update. Usually I was connecting to the internet through Joikuspot premium on Nokia mobile phone (E6). I was able to do everything, https sites surfing, absolutely everything with no exceptions.
    Now, after iOS 6 update, I can't connect to https sites, google+, sync calendar etc.
    I've tried to change connection criteria on joikuspot but nothing. The fact is also that other devices as laptop or other smartphones are still working perfectly, in any case, sharing the wi-fi connection created by joikuspot.
    Finally the problem is 100% due to the iPad and the new iOS.
    disappointing, amateur for such a device... (iPad I mean).
    Any help?
    Many many thanks
    Vittorio

    Ho lo stesso problema, dopo l'aggiornamento a IOS 6 l'ipad non riconosce più il mio nokia N8. Con IOS 5 andava una cannonata...
    vorrei ritornare a IOS 5

  • Problem with MacMail on MacBook Air - mail with 32MB attachment appearing in "recovered messages" folder every 12 seconds

    Problem with MacMail on MacBook Air
    3 days ago I failed to send a mail with a large (32MB) attachment - and it is no longer in my outbox, draft mails or sent file.
    BUT a copy of this same mail now appears every about 15 seconds in my "recovered messages" folder
    I noticed when I received a system error saying I had a disk almost full issue - there were over 580 copies of the mail with 32MB attachment in the "recovered messages file"
    I deleted them all, and deleted the Trash
    BUT the message still keeps re-appearing every 15 seconds or so.  So I keep deleting them.
    Since then I have not been able to receive mail (altho' I am able to send) and Mail is VERY slow
    I am running MAC OS X 10.6.8
    I am running Mail version 4.6 (1085)

    Also here's the log before it happened. As you can see there is no activity from 9:48 to 10:00 am when the sound occurred.

    How can I solve this problem? Thanks in advance for help.

    I'm not certain that Mageia 2 Linux is supported.  This Release Notes page and this Install Help page don't mention Mageia, just
    Fedora Core 12, Ubuntu 9.10, OpenSUSE 11.2.

  • Hy, I have a problem with a new iPad Mini.

    Hy, I have a problem with a new iPad Mini.
    When I try to use the cameras, it doesn't work.
    I get to take 3-4 pictures and after that all I see is the shutter.
    It happends even if just start the camera app, or the facetime app, after 4-5s.
    I've reinstalled IOS 6.1 but nothing changed.
    It is a new ipad. What can I do?

    Ok, Orange Romania changed my iPad mini but now I have another problem.
    I bought the iPad mini on 01/feb/2013, took it to service on 06/feb/2013, and got another ipad mini on 12/feb/2013.
    But the new ipad mini keeps requesting the password for some user [email protected], and it does it from the first day of activation. This is suspect for me, so I checked it's serial with selfsolve.apple.com and it shows "Estimated Expiration Date: January 31, 2014" and since it has one year free service I am worried the iPad mini wasn't new.
    Please help.

    Is this the error you are getting when you are installing AIR 3.0?  Or is this the error you are getting after you've already installed AIR 3.0 and attempting to run AIR applications?  If it's the latter, which applications are you trying to run?  Can you please send us your logs so that we can investigate further?  Thanks!

    Hey skyshade13,
    Thanks for the question. The following article outlines how to restore a previous iTunes library should there be no content after updating. While the article does not speak specifically to your symptoms, attempting the steps by utilizing the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder may resolve your issue.

  • Problem with Bluetooth Keyboard and Lion?

    I've just purchased a 21" imac running os x lion 10.7.3 and although the mac sees the keyboard when I set up the Keyboard from system prefs, it says 'keyboard cannot be found even though the Bluetooth prefs says it's there'.
    Second, there's an on/off button on the right hand side which glows green for a second when it's pushed, and ditto if you push it again, so I don't know if the keyboard is on or off! Surely it should glow grren when ON and not when OFF or is there a problem with the keyboard itself?

    Is the KB working on the system or not?

    That is the way it is designed.  When you turn the KB on, the light is on for a brief period of time.  It does not stay on.
