TS3274 can't disconnect power cable from iPad port cable

The iPad 3 comes with two cables. One has a USB port on one end for connecting the iPad to a computer. The other plugs into an outlet and the business end is a female USB port. So you have to connect the two cables in order to charge the iPad. However the cables then can't be pulled apart when I need to connect the iPad to my computer. Spent half an hour on it and made little progress.

Bruce,     Don't understand why you are connecting two cables together to charge your Ipad.      If you use the USB cable connecting the Ipad to your computer this will enable your ipad to be charged up whilst the computer is switch on.    You should have received a mains plug adaptor which the USB cable plugs into and the other end into your Ipad to charge it up WITHOUT involving your computer at all as a 2nd option.    Can't help you with the cables stuck together other than saying that they did apparently join together and therefore will come apart again with more effort.     NickGS

  • Re PowerShot SX510HS: is there a proper protocol for disconnecting the camera from the USB cable?

    With my previous camera (not Canon) instructions said I must "safely" disconnect the camera from the USB cable inserted into the back of my computer.  What is the safe way to disconnect my new Canon...can I just pull the cord out?

    Cakbu,
    Just make sure you turn off the camera first, then disconnect the USB cable. You should be fine.

  • Pages downloaded, but I still can't open iCloud pages from iPad. Says that I need a new version of Pages on my Mac

    For my Mac Pro, after I downloaded the new Mavericks OS, I downloaded the new pages. However, I still can't open iCloud pages from iPad. Says that I need a new version of Pages on my Mac.
    Please help.

    It appears that you are launching the old version, probably using an icon in your Dock. That icon is an alias & is not updated. You will need to go to your Applications folder & find the new Pages 5 icon & double-click it. Once it is launched, you can right-click on the icon & choose Options > keep in Dock from the contextual menu.

    You have no choice but to lose your data back to the last backup you made.
    Here's how to do the recovery.  Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once to succeed:

    I'm sure next time, you'll be more vigilant about keeping current backups.

    How can I print Calendar week from iPad?

    Aside from taking a screen shot of the Calendar in week view and then printing that from the camera roll, you will need a third party app. I have seen this one recommended in the past .... CalPrint for iPad.

  • Can i unplug time capsule from the ethernet cable and still use it??

    can i unplug time capsule from the ethernet cable and still use it??

    I have tried to extend that wireless line but as soon as i remove the LAN cable i have no internet connection anymore. So basically, does the TC get the signal wireless from the router??
    The Time Capsule can wirelessly extend a wireless signal....but only if it is being provided by another Apple AirPort wireless router.
    If the "main" rotuer there is not an Apple AirPort router,  you will need to connect to the network using a wired Ethernet connection.

  • Can I batch delete photos from iPad and if so how?

    Can I batch delete photos from iPad and if so how?

    I would add that if you don't want to delete the photos from your computer and want them off your iPad, then (1) create a duplicate folder of the photos to be deleted on your computer (select the folder, then cmd-D), (2) rename the duplicate to something else (thus retaining your computer's photos under a different name), and (3) opening the original folder--the one that was synced to the iPad originally -- and drag its contents to trash. Don't drag the FOLDER to trash---drag its CONTENTS to trash. Now resync this empty folder to your iPad. The photos on the iPad will go away, but you still have them on your computer. I know this is clunky but it works. It sure your be nice to allow you to delete individual photos from a synced folder on the iPad! (and iPhone)
