I have a Verizon iPad 3rd Gen. How on earth do I get it to work in Canada on Rogers or Telus or Bell? Telus micro sim starter kit does'nt work yet telus claimed it would. ROgers tells me I need to unlock it before it will work????? I thought the whole idea of having an ipad was being able to take it anywhere, much like apple advertises.

How can i use my ipad in canada?

You can certainly use your iPad in Canada. You'll need to find out from your cellular carrier though if you can use cellular in Canada with paying hige roaming charges.
If there will be roaming charges, or if your carrier will not let you use cellular in Canada, you can still use the iPad. Turn off Cellular in Settings. You can still connect to Wi-Fi anywhere you go.

Can i use verizon ipad outside usa

Many hotel chains do have wifi. Holiday inn, best western, the choice chain.
My experience is the swankier the hotel the less it offers. Hyatt caters to businessmen with expense accounts. They charge for everything. The more middle of the line hotels are pretty good with breakfast and wifi.
Course this also varies from location to location. Urban hotels are less amenity friendly than rural ones.
Many will tell you on their website what they have in the line of wifi.

Used Verizon iPad 3G Account not deleted properly

Hi everyone. I purchased a used iPad 2 (verizon) at a local flea market. The owner demonstrated it using the cellular data and then wiped the iPad before handing it over to me. I am realizing now that it appears he did not deactivate his verizon data plan associated with the iPad or may have clicked the "delete account later" option. I wish I had known about this process before purchasing. I am unable to get prepaid data service on the device. Verizon says the account is still active. I wish I had gotten the seller's number but alas I did not (how stupid of me). I was wondering if anyone else had this experience and if they were able to ever get prepaid service on it again.
It seems Verizon will activate it on a post-paid service but, with activation fees now, it's prohibitively expensive. Even if I were to reactiveate it on a post paid, and then later cancelled, would I get the prepaid option back? Is there a expiration period on iPad data accounts or have I just bought a "cellphone" with a bad ESN more of less? I'll keep talking to Verizon because I know the problem is primarily on their end but they've always seemed inconsistant with information for the most part. If anyone has had a similar experience and has gotten help, please let me know how.
Already tried:
Restoring Device (set up as new)
General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
General>Reset>Subscriber Services>Reset Account
General>Reset>Subscriber Services>Reprovision Account
Followed by hard reset.

Just tried Settings > General > Reset > Erase al content and settings. Set up as new iPad. Still no luck.
This may not be the question for this forum, but do the Verizon Prepaid/Postpaid accounts expire when "delete account later" is selected? If so, how long does it take?

Used Verizon iPad 2 won't let me create a new account need help ASAP...

I bought it used from craigslist and it asks me for a login I never had service with Verizon. Instead of giving me a form to fill out it gives me a email and a password login. I'm on iOS 4.3.3 if I upgrade to 5.0.1 will it solve the issue? What can I do?? Thanks

When you got the iPad, were you able to immediately turn it on and use the device? If you were, you really need to start all over, by going into Settings > General then scroll to the bottom of right hand side and tap Reset > Erase all Content and Settings. This will wipe all data off the iPad. You'll then need to have the most current version of iTunes on your computer and you'll connect the iPad to it via USB and you'll set up the iPad as a new device. This will let you create your own Apple ID and you can start adding apps, music, pictures, etc., and then create a new data account with Verizon.

I use Verizon Fios as my ISP. I am not able to set up verizon yahoo mail on my mini. I had set it up previously on my apple laptop and my iPad, but it does not work on the iPad mini. Also this morning it stopped working on the other apple devices.

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.

Hi, I have an Ipad 2 and am planning a trip to Budapest,Hungary, I have Verizon, will I be able to use the Ipad 2 in Budapest?

Hi
I have an IPAD 2 and am planning a trip to Budapest, Hungary, I use Verizon, will I be able to use the Ipad 2 in Budapest? Thank you.

And you can of course use the iPad itself for any function that does not require an Internet connection. You can only use a cell network if Verizon has CDMA partners in Hungary, which I believe they do not have.

Why is my iPad so slow using verizon 3g verses wifi

why is my iPad so slow using verizon 3g verses wifi?

My older sister has an iPhone 4S with Verizon, and my iPhone 4S is with AT&T.
At Xmas this past year, I used the same speed test app on her iPhone and on mine to check each carrier's download and upload speed. This was in Dallas where both carriers have good coverage. My download and upload speeds with AT&T blew her iPhone's download/upload speeds with Verizon out of the water. Wasn't even close.

Can ipad be reprogrammed to use verizon 3g, can ipad be reprogrammed to use verizon 3g

I purchased my iPad from Apple about a year ago with 3G (AT&T). I live in an area that does not have AT&T cell service but does have Verizon. Can I get my iPad software updated so I can use Verizon 3g?

AT&T and Verizon use different technology and the iPads are built differently - the AT&T version is GSM based and uses micro-sim cards, the Verizon model is CDMA based and doesn't use micro-sim cards. One option is to sell the iPad and buy a Verizon model; another option is to get a mifi device (assuming that you can get Verizon mifi devices) and use that as a mobile hotspot for the iPad.

I wanted to use verizon hotspot wifi with my ipad, but verizon states not compatible with operating system. States that needs windows 7 , Vista, or windows xp. Any ways around this? Any ideas?

I wanted to use verizon hotspot wifi with my ipad (it searaches for hotspots when ur on the go) but verizon states not compatible with operating system. States that it needs windows 7, Vista, or windows XP. Any ways around this? Any ideas?

Thank you everyone for reaching out and apologize for being unclear. Let me rephrase. There is NO MiFi.
I have an ipad3 and a PC
I am trying to connect the iPad3 to the PC for HotSpotting reason (the ability to use the internet on the PC)
Turning on HOT SPOT on the Apple ipad works GREAT when using it through WI-Fi and through Blue Tooth. But connecting it directly through the included iPad 3 USB Cable to the USB side of the PC does NOT work. I tried several PCs, and several Cables. Any other ideas

Can I use my Ipad 3 with Verizon Wireless only on a month to month basis as needed?

Verizon wants to bind me to an ongoing contract for my Ipad 3. I understood when I bought it from Apple.com 2 years ago that it could be on Verizon's data plan on an as needed monthly charge. It would not be an ongoing charge. Then I would only pay a monthly charge of $10 for the months that I was signed into their data network. I could sign in and out of the network as I needed to. I will only use the Ipad on Verizons network 2 to 3 weeks per year when I'm on vacation and away from my home wi-fi, (I have a different home provider for wi fi at home). I have only had it activated on my Verizon account one time a couple of months ago. I called a month ago to cancel my data service for the Ipad only, not my phones. Since then, I have received emails say that they will continue to bill me. Is Verizon just trying to........? (Be Verizon).

Re: Airplay. This is currently up to the developers to implement so it has nothing to do with Apple. Hulu have decided against it for legal reasons.
IOS 5 will bring airplay mirroring with iPad 2 but will have to wait and see to test. It isn't out until the 12th.
Airplay will work with the Macbook but only through iTunes

Currently have been using my ipad 2 to pull up emails from my verizon. Last week verizon updated to my Verizon 2.0 and I can not open my emails or scroll down on my emails. Called verizon and Apple and no one could help me open or access my mobile emails

Currently have been using my ipad 2 to open and read my emails from Verizon.
Last week Verizon upgraded to My Verizon 2.0 and it is not compatable with the ipad 2.
I can't open my emails or scroll down to read them. I called Verizon and Apple and no one can help me..
Has anyone experienced this same issue on their ipad?
Frustrated verizon ipad user.

You can also go to https://www22.verizon.com/ForYourHome/VZRepair/vziha/Service.aspx?ihaweb=EmailSe tup
and it gives you a step by step on adding your account. However don't use the server port number they give you because it does not work. I followed the same steps without changing the number and it worked.
The problem I have is that I can not see the folders I created on my Verizon email account, when I open it on my iPad. I have called Verizon & gone to the Apple store and neither had an answer except to say it was the other's problem.
Can any one help?
