Why did the iPad Air not include the biometric scanner?

The iPhone 5s has a fingerprint reader... which is great. The iPad Air was released just recently, and does not have a biometric solution.

No way to know. And since we are not allowed to speculate on Apple's decisions here, there's reallly nothing we can say.

Why did my iPad Air not finish the restore?

I had to restore my iPad Air to get it recognized on my PC running Windows 8. It erased everything so I had to reset the iPad to factory settings to get it to restore from the iCloud. Everything restored except Newstand, Facebook, and AOL, The staus for the apps for AOL and Facebook says waiting. For newstand there is no indifcation of the status. Please advise. Thank you.

When you restore from back up, the process will restore the OS and some initial data, it will then restart and allow you to use your device while the remaining data is downloaded and restored in the background.

How do I send files from my IMAC via bluetooth to my new Ipad? They will not "pair" but they are connected and discoverable. I send a file from Imac snow leopard OS X 10.6 to the ipadusing bluetooth, but the failure message says the ipad does not have the necessary services. What are these? Do I neeed to have iphoto and ms word to send pix and .doc files?

File Sharing over Bluetooth is not a feature of iOS devices. iOS does not include the required Bluetooth profiles to allow this. You cannot add this feature, so you may as well stop trying.

recently I buy the Ipad Air 2, Inserted the sim. I cant able to make calls for with out facetime for other people and also I am not getting incoming calls

An iPad can only use cellular data services. It cannot be used as a telephone. For that you need the iPhone. You can make calls using Skype or Face Time.

You need to create a DCIM directory off the root of the card, with the photos underneath it, and the photo filenames need to be exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension i.e. in a similar format as if a camera had created/written them. But a lot of USB memory sticks need more power than is supplied to the kit, so you may need a powered hub between it and kit.

HT4101 I have a NIKON COOLPIX P500 but am unable to download photos through the IPad camera connection kit. I have tried to use the Sandisk card also - no result. Any suggestions? The Ipad does not "see" the card or camera?

I have a Nikon Coolpix P500 but am unable to download photos from it to my iPad2 via the iPad Camera Connection kit. The iPad does not see either the Sandisk 8GB card or the Nikon camera. I have turned the camera on, but it seems that the camera just want to recharge its battery through the iPad as the iPad states that the devices draws too much power?? Anybodu solved this problem yet? Advise please?

One thing to check is the format that the camera is saving pics to the card in. Many are selectable and, in most cases, if PTP is one of the options then you need to have that one selected for the files to be visible to iOS and the CCK (connection kit).
Another thing which sometimes comes up, especially with older cameras and therefore probably not with yours, is the filenaming conventions used by the camera. iOS is quite strict about what it expects to see and if files are being stored with unsupported name formats then they simply won't be seen at all.

Hi beverlyfromnull,

When plugging in my headset, the sound continues to play on the ipad and not on the heeadset. Why?

When plugging in my headset in my iPad, the sound continues to play on the ipad and does not switch to the heeadset. Why? I did not have this problem before.

If you have used earphones in the past then I assume that you realize it takes a very firm push to insert the headphones into the opening - correct?

How to show a blank or clear cell for the first entry in a numbers pop-up menu on a mac. I can do it on the iPad but not on the mac. Thank you.

Can you please advise how to show a blank or clear cell as the first option in a pop -up menu on a Mac, I can see how on an IPad but but not on the Mac.
Thank you.

Hi grm,
Yvan Koenig wrote an Applescript to create an popup menu with a true blank menu item. You can find it in Yvan's Box Account public area. Click on for_iWork'09, then for-numbers'09, then look for and download popup_with_nil.zip. Unzip the file, then open it with ScriptEditor.
Yvan's scripts include instructions (in French and English) on how and where to save the script and how to use it. I haven't read this one recently, so I can't give you any further details on it.
Regards,
Barry

I have an Ipad 2 and an Iphone 4s. I can sync musics to the iPad, but not to the iPhone. Am I doing something wrong?

Here's the thing:
I first bought an iPad 2, it works fine with the iTunes. But since i bough my iPhone 4s, i've been able to sync, books, documents and even the apps, but not the musics. It's strange because with the iPad i sync musics all the time, but for some reason my iPhone doesn't sync musics.
Does anyone knows what to do?
Thanks!

You repeated your statement in the description area which should be used to provide additional information about your problem. That's really not that helpful for us who are trying to help you.
When you are directed back to the setup screen, are you able to enter any information at all? If you can, does it let you move on to the next screen? Can you do anything at all? Details, please.

TS4083 when I receive an email, I get the 5 line outline in the left hand column but the ipad does not open the full message.

I have an ipad 2.
Recently, when I receive an email ( hotmail) the 5 line preview message appears in the left hand column as it should but the full message is not displayed.

Don't know if this is related, but the iCloud servers have been having message delivery issues effecting some users for quite a while today (see http://www.apple.com/asia/support/systemstatus/). Perhaps it started effecting some users several days ago.
