We currently have 3 iPad minis in our household.  We are experience difficulty with charging them.  I have replaced several USB cords which all have stopped working...it's frustrating.  Any suggestions?

Looking for suggestions with the iPad mini charger

The iPad mini came with a 5watt charger I would try the 10wat or 12 watt charger which can buy online or goto the apple store.using 2nd party cords  or chargers is not always the best option they can cause lots of problems it pays to use genuine apple products and if u do have a problem u can always send them back and get a replacement free of charge.

  • HT4623 iPad Mini - one year old.  Plugged it in to charge and now it will not power on at all.  I have tried different cables to ensure it was not a faulty cable.  What else can I do?

    I have an iPad mini that is exactly one year old.  I plugged it in to charge it.  The next morning it ws completely dead.  I can't get it to come on no matter what I try.  I have tried a different cable to see if my cable was faulty, but  that id not resolve the issue.  No matter what I try, I can not get it to power on.  I cannot get iTunes, nor my computer to recognize it when it is plugged in.
    Has anyone else had this issue?  What can I do?  Any help would be appreciated!

    Try this  - 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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Advice for setting up new iPad mini, for our 13 yr old, needed.

    We are buying an iPad mini for our daughter's 13th birthday present, and naturally, are full of fear & hesitations for all the obvious security reasons. But, she has ADHD & some learning disabililities, and we know that the iPad Mini with app's could help her overcome several academic & organizational challenges when she enters highschool next year.
    She, and we, have some questions though, about the WISEST (ie: most responsible) way to set it up for her use.
    Should we set up the iPad mini as completely free from our family mac desktop (which still runs OS X 10.6.8, not Lion)?
    Should she get her own Apple ID? This would allow her own Cloud storage, & foster future responsibility, but then would she still be able to access app's stored on our family computer & other iPads.?
    Should we start her own iTunes account? So that she can buy her own tunes & app's. But once again, could she manually sync already purchased stuff from our family computer?
    Backing up: should she back up her iPad mini with iCloud (her own apple ID) or with iTunes?
    If we did set her up with her own Apple ID (that we would know the password to), could we still set parental controls - which she actually wants(!)?
    She would like limits on the time she can spend on the internet, AND time limits on playing with certain games - as she fears getting "addicted" to the games.
    How would we set time limits on app use?
    Thanks very much for your suggestions and advice. If you have any other practical parenting / iPad experience, I welcome your suggestions. We'd rather not learn the hard way..

    There would be no issue syncing it with your computer and putting content on it. It can back itself up to iCloud, but another backup of the content on a computer is always a good idea.
    If you already have an Apple ID with purchased apps, it would be fine to let her use it. You can use a shared Apple ID (for iTunes, iBooks, App Store), and have a seperate iCloud account (To sync critical info and back-up).
    The parental controls in iOS are independent from an Apple ID, you can set-up the restrictions when you get the iPad and adjust them to what you are most comfortable with.

  • My iPad Air has the latest software update, since that the location services are not working! What to do? Even my friend's iPod has the same problem. Our version is iOS 7.1.2. I think that the services have stopped working since iOS 7.0.4.

    My iPad Air has the latest software version(iOS 7.1.2) update, since that update the location services have stopped working. have a solution?

    I have had the same problem, so many apps do not work properly without it! Apple says the internet satellite, the Internet satellite says Apple, back and forth with the blame instead of fixing the problem. Have turned location on and off, reset everything multiple times ( lots of hours and bandwidth to download ), Siri is now working part time, I guess she has cut back her hours for the summer. Even in these forums was suggested to check with Skyhook who does the global positioning, and after hours with them, they ended up saying that they have nothing to do with it anymore, Apple does. All to no avail and much frustration! I wonder if this is happening with the iPhone's? i'd like to know if this is happening with others that do not use satellite as their ISP? That would help narrow down the argument with Apple vs. satellite. Fell for you! Someone please help us! Ta

    In theory, an IMAP server should never present different views of the same inbox to different IMAP clients. (I assume you did verify that the laptop and the older iPad were accessing the server using IMAP; some servers offer both IMAP and POP.) The clients could react differently, but I am not aware of any settings that would cause what you are seeing.
    I know this sounds like a cliche, but have you tried power-cycling or resetting the iPad Mini?

    Axel,
    I'm afraid a new SSD won't be different from your bad USB stick. I had similar issues over USB with both a (no-brand) stick and TWO 64gb Kingston SSDNow's (running Kubuntu 12.04 with Kernel 3.11, ia_64): it all runs exceptionally well (wanna know how it feels like booting in 5 sec?) for a few days - then suddenly you find yourself facing that dreaded (initramfs) prompt. You ask yourself: why? Did I upgrade grub lately? Did I upgrade the Kernel? I don't recall so. Ok, let's fix this... insert favorite live cd, boot, fsck...what???? THOUSANDS of errors??? Hundreds of files and directories corrupted, and the system is unusable - Reinstall everything from scratch onto another drive.
    Rinse and repeat: did this 3 times. Then I found this analysis:
    http://lkcl.net/reports/ssd_analysis.html
    I also suspect USB power interrupts more abruptly than SATA power, at shutdown - basically aggravating any power interruption damages. So now I'm going to:
    - buy an Intel S3500!
    - add commit=1 to my mount options in /etc/fstab
    - edit shutdown procedure to add a 5-10 sec pause after unmounting drives.
    Just my two cents.

  • An apple representative told me its ok to buy a Ipad mini wifi cellular because they are NOT locked devices, I can just take the at

    An apple representative told me its ok to buy a Ipad mini wifi cellular because they are NOT locked devices, I can just take the at&t chip out and put in another carrier. and it will work

    I thought apple change the name from Wifi + 3G to Wifi + Cellular because it has features to work just like a cell. e.g. recive calls and text etc.
    My question is can it really do that? or is their an app I can down load to received calls with the cellular data number and also send out calls? or sms messages?

    I use my iphone 5 to record home videos. I have an apple tv but dvd burners dont have a hdmi plug in. Any suggestions on how i can burn videos from iphone 5?
    I had a av cord that plugged into the iPhone 3gs and iPad 2 but its not compatible with the 5 connector. Right now i have to email myself the videos in small segments and open and save on the iPad 2 to burn them.  Is there an easier way to burn these from my iPhone 5 or through air play on apple tv?
    Thanks

    Connect the phone by USB to the computer, import with image capture, iPhoto or whatever application you use to import movies, drop it into iTunes.
