Should I always let my iPad 3rd generation die and charge ? Takes almost close to 12 hours for a 100% charge. Any suggestions ? iPad is over a year old and don't want to buy a new one if this problem will continue to happen. Help

Do not let the battery drop to 0%. That is very damaging for a lithium based battery, as in the iPad. Charge at any time, for any amount.

Oh alright -- I manage to resolve my own stupidity quite abruptly, actually.
Shortly after posting this, I annoying took another gander at iTunes Store settings. To my own idiocy, I must have unchecked "Show iTunes purchases in the cloud" at some point. In my defense, though, the availability of songs in iCloud threw me off quite a lot.
Ha ha -- anyways, if anyone else is having the same problem, check there.

I brought a new ipad (3rd generation), the problem i am having is with itunes. i downloaded a television series onto my ipad, i did not know that it would try to download it all at one time. my question is how do i change the way my ipad loads.

As I stated in the title, I purchased an ipad (3rd generation), and I am having trouble with itunes downloads. Mistakenly when I purchased a television series I selected download the entire series to my ipad. Is there a way to stop this download and change the download location to either my laptop or into the cloud?

Did you try tapping on the download to bring up a pause status? You can finish the download on the computer in iTunes. You may be able to delete the download by swiping across the progress bar of the download after you finish the download on the computer.
Launch iTunes on your computer and go to Store>Check for available downloads. Finish the download in iTunes and then try to delete the download from the iPad.

I have a 3rd generation IPod and the screen has gone completely blank. It is fully charged and will play music but I have no idea where anything is.

I have a 3rd generation IPod and the screen is black - it is fully charged and will play music but there is nothing to be seen on the screen. I have no idea how to fix this. We live in France now so any of the fixes have to be in English since I can't read French. Any advise would be greatly appreaciated. I looked at some of the other answers but I have no idea where the Hold button would be on this. Thanks.

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

IPad 3rd generation

Everything is sharper on the iPad 3rd generation... but I need to know how to get the crisp white thst the iPad 2 displays. Te iPad 3 has a distinct or pronounced yellowish haze tone to white objects and affects all other colors as well. It is not the brightness ... I've tested that. Holding the iPad 3rd generation next to the iPad 2 ... the color difference is very noticeable and. renders images washed out!

Many people have posted that the yellowish tint was a common problem when the iPad 2 was first released and was caused by the glue holding the screen to the rest of the unit. Supposedly the yellowish tint disappeared after a few weeks. If this is the case, the long an iPad site on the shelf the better the screen will look. But right now every iPad is probably sold right after it is manufactured. Those who manage to purchase units made earlier in the process as Apple built up their inventory. I purchased my iPad 2 well after it was first released and never saw a problem with the screen.
For those concerned about this issue I would wait until a few weeks after the mad rush to buy the new iPad is over. Then go to an Apple store with your old iPad to compare with a unit that had been around for a while. Hopefully the problem will either be resolved by Apple or it will go away as units spend A little more time between manufacture and delivery to the buyer.

HT5163 I need one Ipad 128Gb with Retina iPad (3rd generation) Wi-Fi + Cellular (Black colour), where should I approach in Delhi/NCR for this product? I am unable to find this in Croma and other retailers.

I need one Ipad 128Gb with Retina iPad (3rd generation) Wi-Fi + Cellular (Black colour), where should I approach in Delhi/NCR for this product? I am unable to find this in Croma and other retailers.
i need one very urgently for my day to day work. Can anyone suggest from where I can get a new piece(boxed) on or before 11 March 2013? As this is already launched in India in Jan month, but still not available with retailers, might be because of less demand of this very product.
Any help will be much appriciated.
Waiting for some clue.

There are many Office compatible apps in the AppStore. I use Numbers, Pages,

and reviews carefully before making a purchase.

IPad 3rd generation camera problem

My new IPad 3rd generation camera worked perfectly for about a half hour. Then the IPad got hot so I turned it off to cool down. When I turned it back on and tried to use the camera the camera screen was black. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Quit the camera app and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or reboot the iPad.
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 - let go of the buttons.
BTW ... The iPad should not get that hot!

HT3384 I am using iPad 3rd generation. In "Pages" when I choose "blank" I cannot change the name. I bought a book on Pages on IPad but the photos show "my documents" and I do not have that - I just have "documents" or a + sign on the location where it sho

My iPad 3rd generation does not let me name a document. Where the books say it should have "my documents" there is only "documents" or a + symbol, neither of them allowing my ability to name or rename. All my documents are titled "blank".

Uh - never mind. I figured it out - the "documents" section (still no "my documents, file, or save as ) has a choice of date or name and when I changed that section I was allowed to rename. Don't know why all the references and guides use "my documents" and mine doesn't but as long as it works.......

IPad 3rd Generation 64GB crashing when updating apps

Ever since updating to iOS 7 (and subsequently 7.0.3 and 7.0.4) I find that whenever I update multiple apps on my ipad 3rd generation I suffer multiple freezes & reboots. Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated or failing that details of when a stable version of iOS 7 will be released.

You should let the apps update automatically as and when they are available.

How do I delete multiple emails on iPad 3rd generation

How do I delete multiple emails on iPad 3rd generation with 7.0.6 os? There is not an option to delete more than one at a time. I would like to delete all at once.

It's possible there's an easier way, but this worked for me:
To “delete all” emails on ipad
From each Inbox...
Tap “Edit”
Tap “Mark All” then tap “Mark as Read”
Again, tap "Edit"
Select first email (adds dot and check mark)
Put your finger on “Move” without releasing
With other hand, put finger on first email and Slowly Drag down on email list then release
(your other finger is still on “Move”)
Deselect first email (it may take a couple of taps)
Release “Move”
Wait a while if you have a large number of emails
Tap the Trash icon
All your emails should be deleted

IPad 3rd Generation frozen after reset was done. I get a logo but no status bar

iPad 3rd Generation frozen after reset was done. I get a logo but no status bar

Hello there, darney87.
The following Knowledge base article offers up some great troubleshooting steps for the issue you're describing with your iOS device showing an Apple logo:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

My Ipad 3rd generation is typing alone.

My Ipad 3rd generation is doing everything yourself.
He begins to open and switch applications alone.
When I type something, it starts to type the letters and numbers alone.
When this happens, the screen just hangs and only back to work if I leave the screen locked for a few minutes, but when destravo and I use it, it happens all over again.
Can anyone help me solve this problem.
I searched the internet and seen other people with the same problem but have not found the solution to this problem.
Thank you
Sincerely, Miriam

1. Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
2. If that doesn't solve the issue, backup the device and restore it as new.
In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
Good luck
Stijn

Trouble with Home sharing on iPad, 3rd generation

I am trying to use Home Sharing to bring across my iTunes Music Library and Playlists to my iPad, third generation, IOS 6.1.3. I have filled in the HOME SHARING APPLE ID and PassworD in Settings -> Music. But according to two textbook references: 'My iPad', Gary Rosenzweig and iPad, the missing manual', J.D. Biersdorfer, both references state I should next click a 'More' button, which should provide me a listing of devices which I can select from to get a iTunes Library. I do not have a 'more' button. I have signed off and and re-logged back on and I still do not get a 'more' button. Can anyone tell me if I have missed a step or was misinformed?

I have one network router. I have 5 devices that connect to the router; a G3/G4 B/W PPC connected via an ethernet cable, IMac PPC connected via ethernet, MacBook 2,0 connected via ethernet, Apple TV connected via WiFi, and the iPad (3rd Generation) connected via WiFi. Home Sharing is turned on in the G3/G4 PPC, MacBook 2,0 and the iPad using the same Apple ID. I was able to Home Share between the G3/G4 PPC and the MacBook, but not the PPC and the iPad.
I hope this helps you isolate my problem
