Where is phone application in mini ipad

Why there isn't phone application in mini iPad wifi cellular version? It has nano sim tray and the nano sim is recognized with carrier name. If no phone application than what is the use of nano sim? Is there a way to install phone application similar to the one in iPhone so we can use mini iPad as phone in the field if iPhone runs out of battery.

Why there isn't phone application in mini iPad wifi cellular version?
Because the iPad is not a phone, nor is it advertised as such.
If no phone application than what is the use of nano sim?
The SIM is for accessing the internet over a 3G cellular data connection - not voice.

    You can't, Apple does not use the Bluetooth File Transfer Protocol (FTP) profile.

    Hello valecasafont,
    Congratulations on your new iPad mini!  I would be concerned too if my iPad was unexpectedly powering off.  I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this.  I recommend following the steps below (these steps refer to an iPhone, but the steps also are relevant for an iPad):
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

  • How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?

    How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?
    It works nicely over home wifi, but for example, i am sitting in my car, phone is in my pocket and I'm using the iPad, call comes in and i don't want to start digging for my phone.
    Is there any way?
    devices:
    iPad mini cellular (no SIM card at the moment)
    iPhone 5S
    Thanks!

    well yes, but it basically makes wifi for the other devices, it basically mimics wifi.
    as i get from your answer, it is not possible?
    it would be common sense to make it work this way also. directly from device to device. no bounce between WiFi router
    Then again, common sense is not that common these days...

  • I have a iPhone 5 and mini ipad which I bought unlocked in the UK. I have just moved to singapore and have been told the iPhone won't accept a sim here as the phone is locked to the UK. Any ideas how to unlock. Will this be the same for my ipad?

    I have an iPhone 5 and mini ipad which I bought in the UK Unlocked. I have just moved to Singaporen and have been told that my iPhone won't accept a sim as the phone is locked to the UK. Any ideas how to unlock as apple say they can't do it.  Will I have the same problem with my ipad?

    Unless you purchased the iPhone direct from Apple in the UK and paid full price either on line or In an Apple Store then it will be locked to a UK Carrier and only that carrier can arrange unlocking
    It is unlikely that the iPad is similarly locked as most are sold carrier free unless specifically purchased from a UK carrier as part of a packaged deal involving a subsidy on the price of the iPad ( not very likely but they do exist )

    I just got an iPad mini, when I try to upload my iPhone backup from my Mac i get the message to upgrade my iTunes. I can not seen to find where the download link is for iPads on apple website. Can anyone help?

    The message is referring to iTunes on your computer, not the iPad : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    The built-in apps on the iPad can only be updated via iOS updates, so if your iPad mini is on iOS 6.0.2 then its up-to-date

    How do I get the weather application that is the same as the iphone application on my ipad mini?
    I don't want any other applications from the app store, I just want the regular weather app that comes with the iphones and other products.

    Apple hasn't made that particular App available for the iPad.

  • How do you change the phone number on an ipad mini in the imessage settings?

    How do you change the phone number on an ipad mini in the imessage settings?

    The Phone number of a Cellular iPad is assigned by the carrier the iPad is connected to.  Usually changing the sim card will change this number.
    If that is not what you mean can you please explain in more detail

  • Phone call function for Ipad mini & iOS update for Iphone 4

    Hi,
    Why isn't apple doing phone call on the Ipad Mini. I understand being exclusive but i've been an apple user for over 2 years now and i like using apple products. I've notice samsung has incorporated these features in their Galaxy Tab 2. By doing so, Apple is loosing it's edge against its competitor. Hope that these funtion will be incorporated in the next iOS update.
    On another note, why isn't siri included in the iOS 6.0.1 update for iphone 4. I'm not sure why android based phone could enjoy each of the new features that they release and apple can't do the same. I can understand from a business point of view but it will also affect customer's satisfaction. Appreciate if the team could consider giving the same treatment to all the apple products in terms of it's software updates and new features. 
    I'm not sure if the team is aware that apple products cost a BOMB in Malaysia. For an Iphone5 16GB, it's retail price is at RM 2,199.00 ( not inclusive of call & data plan ). Taking the cheapest call + data package from a telco provider could be as much as RM100/month ( RM1,200.00 per year ). The rational of changing an iphone is not appealing because of the huge cost. 
    As such, apprecaite that apple could at least extend all new features in it's iOS releases to all apple products.
    Thanks,

    Hi Andrey,
    I think I have figured it out. It has to do with my iCloud account. After a lot of reasearch I found a bunch of people with the same problem, and the fix for now is to COMPLETELY DELETE your iCloud account. Simply turning everything off does not work. I immediately did this on my wife and my phones and everything went back to normal.
    It appears to be a bug, because mine was only supposed to be updating my "notes" which shouldnt take 30 megs a day. Hope they fix it soon.

  • HT4623 I started the iOs 7 update in my mini iPad yesterday and it froze the screen at the area "Create a Password" at the Apple ID Security area where it asked to add a security question.  It just stopped and I can't go anywhere else.  What's up with tha

    I started to do the latest update to iOS7 in my iPad mini and it froze the screen at the area Apple ID security where it asks for "Add Security Question".  I press the next icon, and nothing happens.  The screen is frozen there and I can't get out.  I can go no further forward nor can I be back.  It's just stuck.  This has rendered my mini iPad useless.  What can I do?

    That's exactly what Time Machine does for you.  It backs up every hour, so you don't have to.  While it is backing up, you keep on working.  Time Macvhine came with your Mac and you chose not to use it.
    The 10.7.4 update did not cause your hard disk to fail.  Hard disk fail due to mechanical causes.  They are extremely reliable, but that doesn't mean every hard disk will last a long time.  Your mileage WILL vary!
    If you are dependent on your computer and the data stored on it, then you should make sure you have AT LEAST two copies of all data and probably three or four.  You should use at least two means of backing up in case the backup software has a problem.  And you should consider having a backup computer if you live in an area where replacement takes too long (whatever too long is for your business).
    Apple hardware and software is very, very good.  You have documented your experience of this.  But NO hardware or software is perfect.  You also have experience of this.
    It is YOUR responsibility to ensure that your system is set up to protect your data and availability of computing resources.

  • How/where do i find/load latest version of safari on mini ipad

    how/where do i find/load the latest version of safari on mini ipad?

    Found I can do most of what I want via their mobile app, just doesn't work with safari. But there are a couple of features not available in their mobile app that I sometimes need so when needed can use pc based browser. Really don't want to load another browser just for this so will make do. Also will try and call and talk to them b4 I give up.
    Thanks again.
