Should i buy the ipad 2 even though i got a new pc?

should I get the ipad if i just got a new pc?

I love my iPad, but it really depends on what you think you'd do with one. I have a laptop, but the portability of the iPad has it beat. However, if you need to do a lot of work work, access and modify documents, work with spreadsheets, etc., you may find iPad a bit of a letdown. For me, all I do workwise on my iPad is read and answer email. Otherwise, it's just a brilliant entertainment device. All the apps are fun. I have a book library through iBooks and Kindle. I read magazines through Zinio. I watch TV and movies through Netflix. I listen to Pandora radio and just have a great time when I'm using my iPad.
You just need to think about what you need iPad to do for you.

With the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

with the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

I can only echo what Pogo says about buying based on what it does today.
3 weeks ago I bought a Mac Mini. A new Mac Mini model has been rumoured to come out anywhere between the same week I made my purchase and the end of August. None's been released as yet.
I wanted one in the week of June that I bought mine so I bought it based on the fact that it did what I wanted and I couldn't imagine anything which could be added that I'd want - my MacBook Pro doesn't have Thunderbolt so the most likely addition isn't really going to be much use for me.
Basically you have to buy what you what based on what's out at the the time.
I can promise that within seconds of the iPad3 being released, the web will be full of rumours about the next one!

Should I buy the iPad Mini?

Hello, II have an 4g iPod touch and am very used to the retina display. Should I still buy the iPad Mini, or I like the display is not it? Thanks

"I like the display is not it?"
Huh?

Should I continue using the old battery? Even though I got a new ONE?

The apple guy have just delivered my new PB 12" battery; I am however thinking of keeping / or not using it for the meantine since I am not using my PB on mobile. I mean, there is no need to unplug it from the power source; The old battery still charges to 100% but shutsdown at 80%. Here are some of my questions:
- Do I need to calibrate my new battery eventhough I dont intend to use it now? Or shall I leave it in the box since I don't need it yet.
- Would it be wise not to use my new battery? I am just afraid to buy again a new after several months. Though I know it is kinda stupid not to use it now after I bought it.
- What would I do with my old battery? it still work for several minutes...(should i use both alternately to prolong the life of my new battery?)
TIPS TIPS, please. Thanks
What I am sure of, is I need to used this new battery as its warranty last for only a year...
Cheers TO ALL!

Use ipad2 to play video on Apple TV but cannot get the video to play on the iPad even though I change setting without shutting down and restarting the ipad.

I have been using my ipad2 to show video on my flatscreen using the Apple TV. Recently I find that once I use Apple TV I cannot switch back to the ipad for viewing even if I go back to the little rectangular screen and change the checkmark to ipad. Once this happens all my videos will only play through apple tv. If I shut down the ipad and restart it I come up in the ipad mode and can view it on the pad.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Not really sure on this one, but one thought I have is how full is your iPad. Have you connected your iPad to iTunes recently.

Which should I buy, the iPad mini with retina display or the iPad Air?

I Was thinking of buying an iPad but I'm not to sure which one to buy. They both have good reviews and they both look good but from anybody else's point of view which one would be better to buy?
help?
thankyou.

Depends upon what you will be using it for. If you expect to be doing a lot of on-screen typing then the larger iPad with the larger screen/keyboard may be better, if one of the main uses will be as an ebook reader then the smaller-lighter Mini might be better. I don't know what country that you are in but in the US the Mini is $100 cheaper, which could be used for a cases, apps, music etc
Do you have a local store that has both in so that you can try both ?

Why there is an error in the billing system even though I have a new charged card?

I have an Apple account which I need to fill in the billing system via Visa and which I did, but there happend to be a problem where I couldn't update, download or even purchase an app. I assumed there wasn't enough cridet in my internet card so I got a new card with money in it, but it gave me an error saying "There is a billing problem with a previous purchase.". Even though I got a new card it still shows me the same message and when incerting the new card number it tells me "invalid security code". I have contacted the card company to know if the problem is from them but I have updated my account and got this new card but still having same errors. could you help me look what's the problem with the billing system?

Should I buy the new ipad air?

I have an ipad 4 without the cellular capability and have always wanted one with that capability. I've been waiting for the new ipad and now that it's out I'm asking the experts here - should I buy the new one or get an ipad4 with cellular?

My first iPad (first gen) was a 16. I managed well with it. Then upgraded to a 3rd gen with 32 GB. What I found was that if the space was there, I used it, even though I thought 16 was plenty. And suspect if I had gone to a 64 or a 128, would have found the same thing. If you think there is a chance that 128 would work better for you, that's what I would go with. Better to have it and not really need it, than not to have and wish you did.

They will replace it with a refurb of like kind if the problem is deemed to be hardware related and not caused by misue. They will probably try restoring the device and troubleshoot it on their own before they replace it for you .... And I'm talking about an Apple Store here.
You should probably try this next.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

When i send an imessage to another person with imessage, my husband also receives the message, even though it was not sent to him. We have always been on the same itunes account and not had this problem, however, when i added the ipad, this started.

When I send an imessage on my ipad to someone, my husband also gets the message, even though he was not selected as a receipient. This just started when I got my ipad and sent a message for the first time. As a side note, my daughter received an itouch and both my husband and i were getting all messages she sent, no matter which one of us they were sent to. I turned her imessage off. We have all of our devices under the same itunes account so that we can share all music and apps. How can we get around this? I do not want him receiving all imessages that I send, this will get very annoying to him.

You can have a separate AppleID only for iMessage and keep using the other one for iTunes.
Just change the AppleID used for iMessage in Settings > Messages > Receive At

I use tripit on both my iphone and ipad. However, while tripit will sync with the gmail calendar on my iphone, it will not sync with the gmail calendar on my ipad, even though the setting are all in place, correctly for both.

I use the "Tripit" travel app on both my iPhone and iPad2. While I have no problem getting my Tripit info synced to the Gmail Calendar on my iPhone, I am unable to get Tripit to sync to the Gmail calendar on my iPad, even though the setup information (email address, settings, etc.) are exactly the same. I know that Tripit is installed correctly on the iPad, as I am able to go to that app directly and correctly see all of my info. However, even though I've set up the secondary "Tripit" calendar feed (to Gamil) on the iPad, it's not synchronizing and showing up. Is anyone else having this problem?

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

How do I get the internet connection back onto ipad even though it connects to Wifi successfully and I have checked on my iPhone which does connect via the same wifi and to the internet?

How do I get the internet connection back onto ipad even though it connects to Wifi successfully and I have checked on my iPhone which does connect via the same wifi and to the internet?

Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address shown starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make/model, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

Very unclear as to what is happening?

hi

Since about 2 weeks ago for no apparent reason, the internet on my iPad suddenly stopped working (when I open Safari, it says: "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the Internet"), even though the Wifi icon in the top left corner still shows full signal. However, I noticed when I went into Wifi settings (Settings>Wifi) that there is no checkmark next to my network name (only the spinning circle icon, as if it's trying to process something). This only happens at home (I can browse the internet while connected to Wifi at university). My other Apple devices (MacBook Pro and iPhone 4S) work perfectly fine at home.
I've tried resetting my router, restarting my iPad, resetting Network Settings on my iPad, and tried following Hynes' instructions on this thread:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2453187?start=15&tstart=0, but nothing has worked so far (although I have to admit that I found the instructions on that thread somewhat confusing, so there is a chance that I accidentally did not follow them properly).
Could someone please help? It'd be VERY much appreciated.

My 3rd generation ipad even though my battery is at 100 % the screen goes black after sitting for more than 15 mins. The only way to get it to come is by resetting the ipad. Is there a fix for this. It all started after the last two updates.

Try a Reset...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.
