Why do Magnet of the smart cover Weaken after usage?

I had 2 Poly Smart Cover, what i realise is that the Smart Cover Magnet both at the hinge and Flap will get weaken after usage. And also the Poly smart cover will no longer be able to function as a stand. Any other Ipad Smart Cover encounter this? Will Leather Smart Cover solve the problem?

Unfortunately no, a workaround would be not detaching the smart cover from the iPad now and then.

    Hello!
    I can recommend you do the following:
    1/ Quit Mail completely via the Mail-menu
    2/ Open the Finder and find the go-menu near the top left corner of your computer display (not the Finder-window) Choose go to folder.
    Copy-paste the following line into the field that appears, including the ~ :
    ~/library/mail/v2/maildata/
    3/ Move all files that start with "envelope" and "ExternalUpdate" to the trash. Don't empty the trash in case we need to restore these files (which is not likely, but still)
    4/ Restart OS X. Open Mail. Now it will re-import your existing mail. Is your issue solved after this?

  • Cant get the smart cover to click on to the ipad 2 anymore

    The smart cover doesnt come to place the right way on my ipad2 anymore. It stopped working. The magnets are there but its like they have been pushed to the side inside the ipad.

    The only way to fix this problem is: send it back to apple and order a new one...
    hope this helps

  • Does the Smart cover stays on the new iPad?

    Does the magnets can stays on the new iPad or are incombatible?

    The Smart Cover will stay on the New iPad.  There have been reports that the magnets is some may not turn the screen on and off, but it will certainly fit and provide protection for your screen.

  • I have scratch marks from the smart cover(polyurethane)

    I got this APPLE iPad2 early Febuary 2012 & now it's April. I took the smart cover off only twice. When I took it off today a piece of metal came off. Also the smart cover left a 2 marks on the side of the ipad & there's a dent on the magnetic strip on the smart cover. I do not have protection for this ipad. With the one year limited warranty does anyone know if APPLE could replace this or am I out of luck? I do not like how it looks seriously.

    I, i think I had the same problem as you ... I had a big scratch on the bottom of my iPad .. So I called apple and they set me an appointment at the apple store... At the apple store They did persist but they finally changed my iPad and my smart cover for new one ... I hope it helped you ...

  • HT1665 does the smart cover fit on both the new iPad and the iPad 2?

    I have both the iPad2 and i just got the new iPad and I'm wondering if I could put on the smart cover that i was using for my iPad 2 on the new iPad.
    Thankyou very much,
    Yours truley,
    Mohammed Madooh

    it depends on when you bought the smart cover -Apple changed the polarity of the magnets on the new iPad - Smarcovers bought in late 2011 or 2012 should work - those bought before then will not - for awhile Apple was offering exchanges for free on smart covers that dont work on the new iPad - dont know if they still are - you can call an Apple store or Apple online

  • Any cases other than the smart cover? or some that go with it?

    Hey,
    Has anyone had any luck with affordable cases that work WITH the smart cover? I am mainly talking about cases or covers for the back of the iPad that work with the fancy smart covers.
    I will bet a pretty penny a bunch of case designers will make back covers to go with the smart covers.
    Has anybody found any other cases in general?
    The smart cover scratching the iPad is pretty bothersome. Not sure if I want to get one anymore...

    I'm guessing the only way to get around this issue were if someone was to manufacture those clear films (ie like the screen protectors)for the back/side of the iPad 2. I'm guessing it would have little adverse effect on the magnets efficiency and you could replace them however often required? Its certainly something I would look into.

  • Will the smart cover damage the other side of the screen?

    I notice that the smart cover magnetically attaches only on one side of the ipad. However, i on a number of occassions left the smart cover in a position where it made contact with the other side of the ipad where it doesnt magnetically attaches. When this happens, the screen blanks out for a moment, until i get the smart cover out of the way. Can someone enlighten me on does this blanking out of the ipad screen or having magnetic stuffs touching the ipad damage any parts of the ipad? Thank you so much for joining this discussion!

    No, the minor magnetic interference of the cover will not damage the device. Rest easy

  • So I have an iPad with the smart cover, and it's usually supposed to turn on the iPad when u open it, but it's no doing that for me. Nor is it turning off without pressing the button. What is the meaning of this?

    Wait a sec did this just start?
    You set up the smart cover function in settings (you did that, right?) so, if you did that and it's failed you make an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar now.

  • Hi, I'm currently browsing the web looking for a case that is compatible with the smart cover for the iPad 2. If anyone has any suggestions I would be glad to read all opinions! Thanks!

    I love the Smart Cover. It fits the way I work and I love the instant on/off and the always available screen protection. I wouldn't use my iPad without it.
    I got a Cover Buddy for the back, because I wanted the back to be less slippery when I'm using the iPad in the classroom, teaching. I picked this back cover because it's VERY lightweight, easy to get on or off and, protects the corners, has accurate cutouts for the ports, and (in the colors) has a rubberized surface:

    I have a Built NY "hoody" slip on case with a hard internal shell that I use when I'm in the field and I can put the iPad with the Smart Cover and the Cover Buddy inside this . But for everyday use, the Smart Cover with the Cover Buddy is a terrific combination.

    I'd take it into my local APple store and have them look at it. There may be something wrong inside your device.

    The setting for iPad cover lock/unlock is in settings > general for iPad 2.
    The iPad 2 and new iPad if both are using iOS 5.x or later the setting exist in settings > general.
    So, if you worked at an apple store I think you should have known that the setting exist.
    You are right, a hard reset (force restart) should only be used if iOS device is unresponsive or apps crashing...etc.
    But, a simple restart helps as well.
