Using Twitter on iPad Air

Forgive me if this has been brought up before, but I couldn't find it in a search.
I got an iPad Air a couple of days ago, and have been trying to use it. I have noticed a problem when using Twitter - it might be related to the general problem that I have with Safari and Google Chrome on the iPad (i.e. I can only see part of any web site and lose access to sidebars) or it might be a separate problem. Basically, so many of the 'normal' facilities on Twitter are not there. Most annoyingly, there is no facility for composing a new tweet; the user guide says something about clicking on the icon with the quill, but there is no such icon available to me. I have devised a workaround - basically I click on 'reply' on a random tweet, and then backspace until I have deleted the sender's @string - but that is rather unwieldy and I should not have to do it. Can anyone help me out?
Thank you.

@robdrage - Suddenly I actually have icons! They are slow to respond, but one of them is the fabled quill-on-page, and it does open a new tweet. This has appeared by magic since I initiated this query. The other icons are the magnifying glass (which opens a search), and the arrow going into a box (which does nothing at all).

    iPads are not sold locked in the U.S. You can use a Verizon iPad on AT&T. However, you can't use an AT&T iPad on Verizon as those iPads are not in Verizon's databaase.

  • What is the best stylus to use with the iPad Air?

    I'm looking for a stylus to use for the iPad Air to use for sketching and just simple note taking And from the reviews I've read it sounded like the Adonit Jot Pro for 29.99 seemed like a good deal to use for the iPad Air. I'm also a worrywart about if it will harm the screen? So I'm looking for someone's review with their experience using "The Adonit Jot Pro on the iPad Air." Thanks so much For your time and review!

    I've never had a problem with it. I like it a lot for writing. I like the very fine point. I don't know as it's a great stylus for sketching, though. I tend to do most of my sketching in the app Paper with their Pencil stylus.
    When using any stylus, it's good practice to make sure there are no bits of grit on the screen before using. If they should become trapped between the stylus tip and the screen, you could get scratches.

  • What is the best wireless printer to use with an IPad Air and IPhone?

    What is the best wireless printer to use with an IPad Air and IPhone that will print both text and photos?  Also, is the separate keyboard available for the IPad Air, yet?

    Best is relative. Different people like different things. I have an epson that I like. I'd look through a site like Best Buy and compare reviews for Air Print enabled printers.
    as to the keyboard, I know Zagg has one and I think there are other manufacturers that have keyboards for the Air. As far as I know, pretty much any bluetooth keyboard will work, but if you want a case then you'd need to get a specific one.

  • Trouble using Safari on iPad Air

    Hey guys. I'm having trouble with my iPad Air. When I'm online using a web page, safari just closes down on me out of the blue and I lose all my info. At first I thought the problem occurred with one particular page, but then I got the same problem while being on random pages. The tech people at the Apple store advised me to make sure I close all apps to avoid overloading the iPad, but even so the problem persists.
    Any ideas and/or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks a bunch.

    reset all settings
    settings-general-reset-reset all settings
    now reconnect to wifi
    settings- wifi- click network name- enter password - join
    if issue persists back up and restore as new via iTunes
    Peace, Clyde

  • Can the USB cord and charging plug be used interchangeably between iPad Air and Pad mini?

    I have a new iPad air and a new iPad mini. Both seem to have the same white USB cable, but the charging plug adapters are different sizes. Can they be used interchangeably with each other? In other words, can I use the Air adapter to charge the Mini without a problem and vice versa?

    The charger that comes with the iPad Air is 12 watts while the one that comes with the standard mini is 5 watts. As Kappy mentioned, the higher wattage charger (12 watt) can be used with both. If you try to use the 5 watt charger with the iPad Air, you'll likely get a Not Charging message. It may still charge but it will be very slow and it's not really recommended.
    The cables themselves are identical, no issue there.

  • How can I use spotlight on ipad air to find docs in pages?

    I was hoping the spotlight would find doc with terms (e.g. Shawl, HOA) in the title, it it doesn't seem to search that deep into apps.  Is this not possible or am I missing something in settings?   I would like to find all docs or PDF files in Pages or iBooks collections with the word "shawl" in the title or content.

    You are not missing anything at all.
    Spotlight will not find files or documents for you. You can see what you can search for using Spotlight in Settings>General>Spotlight Search. You can search for an application, but you cannot search for documents within the applications.
