Why doesnt the ipad have a camera?

i strongly think that the ipad should have a camera for maximum social networking capabilities and sharing moments.

Thanks for your personal opinion.
Maybe wait for the next iPad.
I think Apple has intentionally left it out because it would be as silly as putting a phone in the iPad. Imagine someone holding a nine inch iPhone to their ear. The same goes for holding a nine inch tablet to take a photo + any camera put in a iPad would lead to many complaints and people complaining about picture quality. The price would also go up. As for a front facing camera I can see use but currently the speeds would not be adequate on 3g and it would also ruin Apple’s one more thing.. thing (iPhone-FaceTime) I think they are letting features go slowly until Apple finds what people use their iPad for then they will decide what needs to be added. Generally the first product is more like a beta. Apple is going slow and steady to make the WOW people have with the product last. If they gave all the features go at once what would be in the next iPad. I do think they have unintentionally let people get their hopes up too high leading to some disappointment (which is the other extreme). Anyway hope I answered your question

    Why doesnt my ipad have sound if even though mute is off please help

    It is very possible that your mute is off, but your volume is still all the way down. Try turning up the volume with the side buttons.
    If that doesn't work, make sure that the app you are trying to use sound in doesn't have an additional mute option.
    If that doesn't work, it is possible that the problem lies within the iPad itself, inside the casing. I suggest going to the genius bar to have it looked at.

  • HT4623 why doesnt the ipad2 have siri app if when you do the download it said you will have it

    why doesnt the ipad2 have the app siri when you do the update

    The iPad 2 cannot run Siri. It lacks a piece of hardware to make the software work. If the 2 could have handled Siri, it'd have gotten it a year ago.
    And if you read the footnotes on the iOS7 release, you'll see that it clearly states that Siri is not on the 2.

  • Why doesnt the Ipad charge on the computer?

    Why?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Likely, your computer does not have the required high-power USB port.
    For more details, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4060
    and this included reference to 'high power' (defined as more than 500 milliamps output) USB
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4049?viewlocale=en_US
    Confirming what the other poster says, my older MacBook, lacking high-power USB, does charge the iPad 2 when connected despite the message, although at a very very slow rate. I've noticed that the iPad charge increases a by percent or two when connected for an hour or more.

  • Why doesnt the youtube and imessege work on my ipad

    why doesnt the youtube and imessege work on my ipad

    For iMessages there is some troubleshooting on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    Has the YouTube app previously worked on the iPad, and have you ever synced the iPad with your computer ? This page for YourTube (which refers to a "Cannot connect to YouTube" error message) says :
    To use certain services, iTunes must download and install an authentication token on the device. Because iPad and iPod touch do not require an active Internet connection to activate, these tokens may not be downloaded and installed during initial setup.
    You can resolve this issue by verifying that iTunes has an active Internet connection. Use the following steps:
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    Verify that your Mac or PC has an active Internet connection by accessing the iTunes Store in iTunes.
    Connect your iPad or iPod touch to your Mac or PC.
    After the sync completes, verify you can access YouTube.

  • Why does the iPad Mini not have music play count?

    I bought an iPad Mini and also have a macbook. I had listened to various music on my iPad Mini the other day, however when I connected the iPad Mini to the Macbook and iTunes via the lightning connector to sync, it synced the ratings I gave the songs I listened to on the mini, but no play count, as if I had not listened to anything. I hope there is something I can do about this as I often look at my play count!!

    It should work work but these kind of bugs pop up between updates, both hardware and software. Try closing all apps in the recently used list on the iPad. Double tap the Home button, tap and hold one of the icons at the bottom till they wiggle then tap the to close them. Tap the Home button to get back to the Home screen then hold the sleep button till you see the slide to power off message. Once it has powered down completely hold the Sleep button till the Apple icon appears.

    Does it even really matter...?
    Many people including myself rely on playcounts to control smart playlist to manage large libraries. Smart playlists can be created to show your most or least played tracks and used more or less as your favorites or other uses. Along with playcounts the date is transferred so to keep a fresh list of music on my smaller iPods a smart playlist set to songs not played in the last month keeps some fresh tunes on it.
    Playcounts are also used to manage Podcasts in iTunes to delete older episode. Bookmarks, which can also be effected by this, can mess up audiobooks, movies and podcast playback between different devices. So yes, it does matter.

    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTune and plug.

    Why doesnt the netflix app have a continuous playing mode? I shouldnt have to select the next episode every 24 minutes. Even the cheap PS3 Netflix app supports this. 

    Compared to what?
    Does Netflix behave differently on other devices?

  • Why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

    why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

    My Ipad 3 is the same, it must be a design fault cuz I dropped a pound coin on my ipad screen and it shattered and every other week there's a new dent or scratch, though I wouldn't say I'm overly rough with it. I use it a lot, like most do, so accidents will happen and Apple hav to allow for that. I deffently wouldn't say that they are worth the money for the amount of trouble they cause, they r great devices, just far too delicate and expensive! 

  • Why does the iPad make the same noise when it connects to a charger that doesn't charge it as one that will charge it???

    Why does the iPad make the same noise when it connects to a charger that doesn't charge it as one that will charge it???
    I would expect that it would make an unusual noise if plugged into a generic USB charger that does not have enough oomph to charge a pad to alert you - otherwise, you might think the noise is reassuring that you are actually charging it.

    I guess my question was actually more of a comment on the (lack of) design!  It is unusual that something like this would still be in an Apple product.  There are wall chargers that have a USB port on them that do not have the required oomph to charge the iPad.  I have one that has two USB ports, one for my iPhone  (it won't charge an iPad), and one for an iPad with greater amperage rating.  I accidentally used the wrong ones for a while yesterday, but noticed before being "surprised" the next morning by an uncharged iPad.  The iPad is smart enough to say "Not charging" by the battery icon when it is plugges in to one of these, so it "knows" - seems like it would be fairly simply to have the iPad make a different or additional noise  wehn it puts up the "Not charging" text icon.  Failsafe user experience?

  • Why has the iPad not got some features that the iPhone has?

    The title tells a lot.
    Some things I think are missing, as you can get told the weather, but there is no weather icon. Same for stocks, and why can't the iPad have a voice memo or compass app?
    It seems surprising that for something bigger than the iPhone hasn't got equal features, but has less?
    Anyone know?

    They are meant to be two seperate products. The iPad has features that the iPhone does not.

  • Why doesnt the Canada music store....

    why doesnt the Canadian music store have movies and TV shows and is there some way to make my itunes card work for the US store
    thanx

    You will have to address this issue with the Canadian copyright holders for this content as to when they will make it available to Apple for download, As to using the US store, you will have to have a US credit card with an attached US billing address to use the US store. This is again due to restrictions placed on Apple by the copyright holders who do not care for cross-border sales.
