What is an iPad

Hi guys
I am fan of apple product but I really dont undrestand what is an iPad and why one should spend $500+ for the basic one?
What kind of tablet is this that does not take USB, external memory card of any kind and can not be connected to a standard projector. Also not like a normal computers which are super easy to install software.
Is it worth to buy such an expensive device for just browsing net, checking mail and playing game?
The onlye positive thing I can think of, is that you can have a Data plan

Is it worth to buy such an expensive device for just browsing net, checking mail and playing game?
Only you can decide that.  It does a lot more than what you describe and much more than can be discussed here.  Read reviews on the net, see Apple's videos on their site and play with one in a store.  Make your decision then.

  • How do you reactivate the grey utilities scroll up tab at the bottom of the screen that should reveal wifi, bluetooth etc? Doesn't matter what orientation the ipad is in, it won't scroll up from the bottom. All other screen functions work normally.

    Settings/Control Center. There are two options which are pretty self-explanitory...one enables/disables access on the Lock Screen and one enables/disables access within apps/games.

  • What is my iPad accessing on the internet when it is charging?

    Hi,
    I have a WiFi only iPad Air which is currently charging. I have noticed that my router is accessing the internet. When I put the iPad in airplane mode the router stops.
    I have confirmed that the following is, as usual, turned off:
    1) iCloud back-up
    2) Auto app updates and auto downloading of iTunes purchases
    3) Backround app refresh
    4) Location services (except for Find My iPad)
    5) iOS is up to date so it is not the update auto downloading
    6) My PC is turned off so it is not syncing via WiFi
    What is the iPad accessing on the internet?
    Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

    There is a newer version of iTunes than 10.6.3. The newest version is iTunes 11.2.2. It may help if you update iTunes first.
    Has you iPad ever been jailbroken? You can get that error message if the device has been hacked. Have you tried recovery mode.
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device - Apple Support

  • What does connecting iPad mini to my Mac Mini  through Bluetooth do

    what does connecting iPad mini to my Mac Mini  through Bluetooth do

    There is nothing else you can do as regards the Mac. Bluetooth between a Mac and an iOS device works only for tethering so you can share the iOS device's cell connection. Otherwise, Bluetooth in an iPad is for connecting to peripherals such as headsets, in-car systems, and keyboards.
    Regards.

  • HT5012 What causes an IPAD 2 to orient to portrait instead of landscape inside apps?

    What causes an IPAD 2 to not change to landscape orientation in apps?  Is it broken or is there a setting not set correctly?

    As said before, some apps must be run in a specific orientation, however, there is a setting to lock it in one or the other orientation. Getting to this setting can be achieved by several different ways depending on system model. The new IOS 7 has a menu that can be dragged upward from the bottom of the screen. The icon with the lock is your target.

  • What is the iPad alternative to Flash Player?

    What is the iPad alternative to Flash Player?

    There are alternate browsers that redirect flash content to their servers, change it to stuff that works on iOS and send it to your device.
    They mostly kind of work.
    Look at skyfire, photon, iswifter, puffin.
    Read some reviews and see if one will work for you.

    My mailing system won't work, and I see many here have had the same problem. so I tried the suggestions I could find. Last thing I tried was deleting my mailing account, so that I could restore it again. Internet is working, everything else is working, plenty of space BUT now my email won't even be restored. Not any of my other mailing accounts either for that matter.
