TS3274 how to fix headphone pin broke off in ipad

how to fix headphone pin broke off in ipad?

 I just got it out! First, I unplugged everything and put the desktop on a table. Then,  I took 2 thin bobby pins and took the painted round tips off with a pair of pliers. I did this because my tweezers couldn't fit in there. I gently worked a pin on the top and one on the bottom of the piece that was stuck. Then I wiggled it forward, and put the pieces back into place when they slipped out. Finally, it wiggled out!! This all took about 10 minutes.

    There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.

    A double-tap acts like a single tap and you need to use three fingers to scroll when VoiceOver is on:
    Press Home.
    Tap Settings. Then double-tap Settings.
    Tap General. Then double-tap General.
    Use three fingers on the screen to scroll to Accessibility.
    Tap Accessibility. Then double-tap Accessibility.
    Tap VoiceOver. Then double-tap VoiceOver.
    Tap "On" next to VoiceOver. Then double-tap "On" to turn it off.

  • Adapter broke off in ipad any idea how to remove it?

    I purchased a Belkin mp3 adapter for my new car and the stem broke off in my ipad.  Any idea how to remove it as this is not covered by any warranty?

    If you live near an Apple store, make an appointment. A service tech at the store should be able to remove it and if so, there shouldn't be any charge. Apple doesn't have a menu of repair services anyway. They may make clear they won't be responsible for any resulting damage by the stem getting broken or by the removal.

  • Yoga 2 usb plastic pin broke off.

    Today I took my laptop out of my backpack and the usb devinder/plastic middle part was a little outstrestred. I've tried to put my phone in the usb port but ithe plastic devinder broke off. So the usb port is working, but whitout the plastic part you could not use the usb port because of short circuit. 
    It looks like:

    Maybe this can be still classified as a material defect, because the plastic divider shouldn't be so weak unless it received some serious impact. I suggest contacting your vendor and check whether this can be repaired under standard warranty or not.

  • How do you get an ipa off your iPad to backup if the app was removed from the app store and using "Transfer purchases" does not copy the ipa over to iTunes?

    Hello everyone. Can anyone shed some light on this problem? If I downloaded an app from the app store called "Print to PDF" that allows opening any application and going to print converts that to a PDF e.g. Safari pages, mail etc and I did not sync or "transfer purchases" for some time and when I look in the app store that app is no longer there so I thought if I could "transfer purchases" iTunes would then have the .ipa and I could back it up and copy it to my iPad 2 but I don't see the ipa in the "mobile applications" directory. How do I get it off my iPad and into iTunes to backup?
    Thanks for any help you can give!

    Ashka, I have tried to "transfer purchases from device" but that is what I am saying that I do not see the app in the "mobile applications" directory after I do that process. I was wondering if anyone else knew of a way to get to the ipa file that is stored on the iPad such as a program that could browse the directories of the iPad of even an app that could do it so I can get and save the actual app in ipa format.

  • How do I get my songs off my IPad after installing new ITunes?

    I suppose this question has been asked a couple million times, but here goes a million and one.  I have an IPad and I have 4608 songs that I spent hours ripping from CDs to my system.  I then used my micro sized brain to figure out that if my system crashed I would have a backup of these MP3's on my IPad for safe keeping. Fix the puter, reinstall ITunes, do a backup and restore, bingo back in business.  Of course all my pics, movies, apps, contacts, calendar etc are there but no songs! to my horror no songs. it does not care about the 30 movies that i have copied over to it and would take hours to redo. Nope it wants me to spend days/months re-ripping those **** songs again.  Why, every other device on earth allows you to do this.  What is apple trying to do? Make me want to throw my IPad into the trash compactor?  This makes no sense!   Sorry I blew up.  Does anyone know of any safe way to get the songs off my IPad so I can load them back on my puter and have ITunes recognize them and use them again?

    You select the music you want to sync to the iphone, then sync. The same way you get any other music from your computer top your iphone.

  • How do I delete iTunes music off my iPad 2?

    I have an iPad 2 running 7.0.3. I need to delete all my songs off my iPad 2 because I recently had a mini stroke and am finding mt iPad 2 more of a necessity every day requiring me to down load more and more apps. I would like to keep my radio stations and one music video movie but the songs must go. In a perfect world, I would have a 64 gig or better iPad to hold my large music library, but, that's not possible at this time. So for now, I will plug my iPod into my surround system and be very grateful for that! My MacBook runs 10.5.8 with iTunes 10.6.?,  I cannot read the last digit because it's a scrolling message and even with my new glasses, I can't tell what it is. But my MacBook will not let me see my iPad upon connection anymore. I used to do all the loading manually so I knew I would make sure I would love what I had on my limited space on the iPad. But I cannot do that now without an upgrade of iTunes on the MacBook but it's maxed out on upgrades. It's pretty old...about 7 years old I guess. But other than this glitch, the MacBook works perfectly fine!! Can anybody help me with this issue??
    Thank you in advance!!!! Have a Great Day!!!

  • How to prevent someone to switch off my iPad?

    Is there anyway to lock my iPad so that if my iPad is stolen, the thief will unable to switch off my iPad?

    With the passcode lock enable the iPad still be able to turn off. Can apple add a new feature so that there is a way to prevent iPad from power off? Without this feature, the find my iPhone's app is useless as someone took the iPad can immediately power off the iPad.
