Should I get the new iPad in 32GB or 64GB?

I am looking to purchase the new iPad with Wi-Fi + 4G, which will be my first iPad/tablet. Currently I have a 16GB iPhone 4.
What I would be doing mostly is the reading of ebooks, syncing movies/TV shows and also my iTunes music library (which is about 20GB).
I am also interested in getting games like Infinity Blade 2, among other things. I understand that the retina display will cause most app developers to bloat up their apps for better graphics.
Would you suggest that I get the 32GB or the 64GB?

If you have 20 gig of music and you also want to put films and TV shows on it then you will probably need the 64 gig version - HD films can be quite large (I have a 50 minute HD documentary that is 1.4 gig), so if you want to have a number of films/TV shows on the iPad at the same time as your 20 gig music library then you will need the extra capacity. Also the capacity can't be increased once you've bought it, so if you buy a smaller size you may find that you need to keep copying things off and onto it (and it's always better to have too much space then too little).
eBooks tend to be relatively small (most of mine are less than 3 meg). Some games can be large (Infinity Blade 2 is listed as 940 meg in the store).

I am moving to Alice Springs, Australia, this summer from the U.S. I would like to get the new iPad. How can I found out if I will be able to access all the functionality in Alice? Will I need to purchase a local plan of some sort?

I am moving to Alice Springs, Australia, this summer from the U.S. I would like to get the new iPad to use while traveling back and forth from the U.S. to Australia, and within Australia. How can I found out if I will be able to access all the functionality of the iPad in Alice? Will I need to purchase a local plan of some sort? I have never owned an Apple product before -- I'm a newby!

Aside form the limitation of LTE to the 700MHz and 2.1GHz bands (which rules out LTE in Europe I gather, at least as it stands now) the new iPad should let you use a GSM 3g/2g/edge network anywhere. The CDMA Verizon model will only be able to use it's native CDMA radio band in the USA (that radio will be locked to Verizon), but it's international GSM radio is the same as the AT&T model.
Keep in mind though that by far the cheapest option when abroad is to take advantage of free wifi as much as possible (well, that is always the cheapest option, since it is free). I know several people who have taken their wifi-only iPads and iPad2s to Europe and said they did not find the lack of 3G really inconvenient at all as most towns had plenty of free or cheap wifi access all over the place.
And in 3 years, your iPad will be at least 2-3 generations behind, LTE will have already been replaced by 5G or whatever the next new generation of cellular ends up being named (and the "young" kids will be wondering what the heck 3G even means or meant - dang that stuff was from the olden days!), and you can pitch that ancient piece of technology and start things all over again

I just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

A lot of computers don't provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.

How long should I charge the New iPad battery ??

Hi,
Can someone tell me :
How long should I charge the New iPad battery ??
i dont know, and i cant find this on the apple page.
i know that with the iPod Touch Five and Four Generation, the charge its only 2-4 hours but on the iPad how long is the charge?
im really miss it!
Can someone help me ?
Thanks!!

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

I purchased an iPad mini on October 10th. I want to return it and get the new ipad mini retina when it comes out. How do I do that if the new ipad mini release date isn't until "later in November", which is beyond the 14 days from my purchase date?

I purchased an iPad mini on October 10th. I want to return it and get the new ipad mini retina when it comes out. I am currently still within the 14 day return/exchange window but how can I exchange it if the new ipad mini release date isn't until "later in November", which would be beyond the 14 days from my purchase date? If apple announces a new version of a product you just purchased but won't actually release it for more than 14 days, how can you possibly exchange the one you just bought? Is my only option to return the one I bought on the 10th (so return by 10/24) and then not have an iPad until the new one is available for purchase? Or would it make any sense to return the one I bought, get a new one, which would presumably have another 14 day return window, and then exchange THAT one for the new ipad mini w/ retina when it comes out (hopefully within that second 14 day window)?

Call the apple store you got it from and ask them. Sometimes in the past they've extended the 'no questions asked return' but only Apple can tell you for sure.

GET THE NEW IPAD with no contract

Hi everyone
I am going to travel to te US in few days and i want o know if i can get the new ipad 4g 64gb without contract (At&t or Verizone ) and woh much it coast
thanks for your support .

There is no contract for the 4G iPad. It costs $829 plus local sales tax (different in every location in the US).
In the past only the AT&T (GSM) model would work internationally. Apparenly the new Verizon will also connect to 4G international networks, but I'm not sure if it will work with 3G.
Both the ATT and Verizon model of iPad can roam worldwide on GSM/UMTS networks. In countries without compatible 4G LTE networks, the new iPad will operate on GSM network technologies such as HSPA+ and DC-HSDPA. When you travel internationally, you can use a micro-SIM card from a local carrier.

Wan to get the new iPad (3) what amount of gig should I get? Details in description :)"

:) I want to buy the new iPad I'm just not sure whether I should get the 32 gig or the 64 gig... I have a 8 gig (white) iPod touch but I need more space!!! I'll have most of my apps on the iPad & offload my iPod photos to the iPad..
I tend to take a lot of photos & I like having lots of apps.. & Id like to use the iPad as a laptop.. ( just to google & type & the occasional PowerPoint. My dad & brother have laptops but I rarely can use them.. I'd also like to be able to let my mum & my younger brother to use it as well.. But I'll need more space..
I like the idea of having the 64 because I'd have tons of space & I don't think I'd run out (also it wouldn't slow down) but I don't know if it's worth the time to save up for it....
Help please!! & feel free to ask any questions.. I'll check every now & then..
Ohh. & I'll be getting only wifi..

The 64 GB iPad 3 is only $100 more than the 32 GB.
You can't upgrade the memory once it is purchased.
That is why I would suggest getting the 64 GB.

Should I buy the new ipad or ipad 2?

The new ipad have just released and i still hesitate to buy the new ipad or ipad 2. I heard a lot of rumours saying that the new ipad is overheating. Can you guys give me a few comments????

All I can tell you is that my new iPad doesn't overheat, nor do the others that have been purchased in my company. In general it's been agreed by most objective observers that the problem was overblown, though undoubtely there are some units that overheat.
As to which you should get, that's up to you. I'm quite happy with the higher resolution of the new screen, but the iPad 2's screen was more than adequate. If you have an Apple Store or dealer who carries the iPad, I'd suggest you pay a visit and compare the screens for yourself. The back camera on the new iPad is certainly better, but I have had little need to use the cameras in either, so that's something you'll also have to decide for yourself.
Regards.

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.

Should I get the new mac mini?

Hi all
I am confused and would appreciate some advice. My current mac mini which is a late 2006 model it has 1.83 Ghz Intel Core Duo 1GB mem and 80 GIG HD and super drive, running 10.56, and a usb external 250 GIG HD.
I have the option of buying the new mac mini the:
120GB Mac mini (MB463*/A) 320GB Mac mini (MB464*/A)
Processor 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
for an extra £169 which is $237.38 as I can sell my current mac mini for £305. I am wanting to know should I buy the new mac mini?
My needs for my mac mini is using Iworks, Safari, watching dvd's, listening to music and burning dvd's and music. I never really play any games at all.
I have apple care until March 2010 too. So I am just wondering if my current mac mini is going well for me. Shall i update for the extra features, or for my usage for what i use it for, my mac, shall i stay and just keep my current mac mini?
Thanks in advance

by saying "media library," I meant the space where you keep your media files. Often case, people including myself keep all media files (movies, musics, etc) on an external hard dives.
time machine is a good, but it's not mirroring. by mirroring, you your computer sees two identical drives as one drive (not combined capacity, but as if there was only one of them connected to the machine). The computer writes exact same files to both drives so if one drive physically fails, your media files are safe in the other drive.
anyway, mirroring is only one of the many solutions to protect your files, and there is no singe solution that works perfectly and completely fail safe.
so my point is, instead of upgrading you mini, spend cash on storage space and its protections like backup drive and/or UPS (google for "Uninterruptible Power Supply") and such.

SHOULD I GET THE NEW IPOD WITH ViDEO?

I was wondering if I should get a new iPod. Can you give me some help. I wanted to know the pro and cons.

I was wondering if I should get a new iPod. Can you
give me some help. I wanted to know the pro and cons.
It depends. Do you have an earlier version of iPod? If you do, and it still works well, then I would wait. The only reason I would recommend getting a new iPod is if you had an earlier iPod break; you have a low capacity mp3 player; you want to have a color screen. I recently had an unofrtunate event happen with a 6 gig mini iPod. I have done all I can to try and fix it, but to no avail. So, I ended up looking to buy another iPod. I did some research, and found that buying a new iPod was a good choice. I did think about the nano, but only one will hold the amount of songs I have. The one that does is the 8 gig black mini. However, it costs $249. I then noticed that the 30 gig video iPod also costs $249. Since I am was not worried about size, I purchased a 30 gig video iPod. I am glad I did. It is just a little bigger than my mini, but holds 5 times more music, and also videos, and has a color screen. The one thing I liked about the mini was that it had an aluminim housing. If you get a video iPod, be sure to get a good iSkin case for it to help keep it safe. After owning the 30 gig iPod for a while, I have really enjoyed it. I haven't had any issues with it at all.

Should I get the new iPod

I am an ipad 2 owner with an 8GB iPod touch 4th generation. I have seen the new iPod come out recently. With Christmas coming up I was pondering wether to get then new iPod ar the ipad mini. Any help would be appreciated...

Apple will only give you a 10% recycling discount if you turn in an old iPod when you purchase a new one. Better off selling it yourself.
