TS3274 why is my ipad displaying in chinese script?
Hello
Why is my new ipad 3 displaying in a mixture of english and chinese? I can't download apps in app store as everything is in chinese. In my settings I have set English.
Thanks for any help.
Ipad has an option to allow you to change the language. Go into SETTINGS and click on GENERAL and scroll down to INTERNATIONAL screen, then click on LANGUAGE which will show you a number of language options - click on the one you want and click on DONE. NickGS

TS3274 Why does my iPad 1 just randomly close the app I am running
Why does my iPad randomly close either the app or the internet I'm working on?
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.

TS3274 Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner
Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner ?
Hi Edwardtracey,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
It sounds like you have a cellular data plan and there is no service where you currently are.
The article below will explain this feature and how to turn the setting on/off.
The article has more details and screenshots, but I've quoted highlights below for you:
iOS: About the Cellular Data setting
Cellular data is used for data communication in cellular networks. It does not affect your ability to make or receive phone calls or to use Wi-Fi networks for Internet connectivity. If you turn off cellular data, you will be unable to:
See the cellular data icons in the status bar (for example, LTE or 3G).
Send or receive MMS messages. However, you can still send and receive SMS and iMessages if you're connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Retrieve or listen to new Visual Voicemail messages. To retrieve these messages, enable Cellular Data.
Use Personal Hotspot.
You can adjust this setting by going to:
iPad: Settings > Cellular
Additional Information
You can also enable or disable cellular data for certain iOS features from this setting:
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

TS3274 why wont my ipad chage up? keeps displaying not charging
pulg my charger in and the ipad keepsdisplaying a not charging message. anyone else encountered this?
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.

Why is my ipad displaying strange symbols?
I was wondering if someone could help me.
Just purchased an Ipad3 and found that the date (i.e. month) when displayed at the top of the screen is being shown in strange symbols/characters rather than specific text (saying "march" for example). When i go to settings, date & time, it again shows strange characters here rather than the different months.
it is also displaying them in Mail when i check the date of individual emails and in calander.
here is a snapshot:

TS3274 Why does my iPad keep force closing?
It doesn't matter what app I'm using, or what site I enter, every time I open something, it automatically force closes within a minute or two! This is very frustrating I can't do anything on it because when it closes like that it doesn't save the project that I was involved in! I have to start all over.
I need hep! Does anybody have any advise for me?Hello TJcarnley,
It might be worth attempting a restart of the iPad, and then a reset, should restarting fail to resolve the issue.

If your apps still won't stop closing on you, I would recommend restoring the device.

TS3274 Why does my iPad get hot?
MY iPad gets ver hot , could it be a faulty battery?
I've just joined the community today because my iPad (latest model, a Christmas 2012 present) has started to get really hot. I first noticed it on a relatively hot (for the UK) day last week when I'd left it charging, with its cover removed, on my bed. The mattress is memory foam, which may have been a contributory factor. In order to allow air circulation, I normally prop it up vertically without its cover when charging.
It got hot again about an hour ago, when I was simply browsing, so I looked for advice here. I found a few lengthy discussions on the subject, which appears to be fairly common, and followed advice to cut the brightness down to 50% and set auto-brightness to 'off'.
It is currently in use minus its protective cover and has cooled down already. The cover's back panel has an apple-shaped cut-out, presumably for ventilation, but might it be better to use a cover that leaves the back exposed altogether? I still have my 'L' plates on! -

Why stop seling iPad retina display so soon, and continuing seling iPad 2
Why stop seling iPad retina display so soon, and continuing seling iPad 2
Hi,
If you're asking because you were hoping to buy one, they might still be in Apple stores and will definitely be available in big box stores.
Retina ipad - Prices same as have been at big box store I checked.
Apple Online Refurb store
16 gb was $419.00. Today $ 379.00.
32 gb was $499.00. Today $ 429.00.
64 gb was $579.00. Today $ 529.00.
Minis Until today
new 16 gb mini was/is $329.00. Today $299.00 A refurbed 16 gb was $279.00. Today $249.00
new 32 gb mini was/is $429.00. Today not on site. A refurbed 32 gb was $359.00. Today $339.00.
new 64 gb mini was/is $529.00. Today not on site. A refurbed 64 gb was $439.00. Today $419.00.
We have ipad 2's from Apple's refurb store and one as a gift. They have been great.
Best Buy 32 gb $429.00 and a 64 gb is $529.00. Same price as usual. Check other big box retailers, too, if you're in the market to buy one.
If you're simply curious, many would guess it all comes down to $$$$$$$$$. It's about the bottom line and in this tech world, many want the best and the newest. and they're willing to pay for it, even if some cannot afford it. And they make a heck of a profit doing as they do.
Hope this helps. -
Why does my iPad no longer display email messages?
My iPad suddenly stopped showing the body of emails, both for my iCloud account and for my Google mail account. I discovered that if I click to either reply or forward a message a truncated version of it appears with no attachments or graphics. I didn't change any settings or anything before it happened. What do I do to get the body of email messages to show up again?

Try this first - Reset 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

My Ipad display is stuck on portrait mode. I tried the toggle switch, turning off and restart and just now backed up into Itunes and restored and still is stuck on portrait mode and it won't flip to landscape mode. Is this a hardware problem?
Has lock rotation been accidentally enabled within the control centre? If you swipe up the screen is there a circle with a lock symbol & if so is is greyed out or white - if white it is enabled.

You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
Try using Recovery Mode
