Why is my virtually new ipad mini warped?

Why is my ipad mini warped? How do I go about getting it replaced? It is virtually new.

Return the iPad if you feel it is not made well enough. Note though that accidental damage is usually not covered by the warranty, iPads, in my experience, do not warp on their own.

  • Why wasn't the new iPad Mini called the iPad Mini 2 ?

    The title given to it "iPad Mini Retina Display" is hardly a snappy title, especially when compared to the other iPads.
    Could it be that this is not a major new version but an interim model ( a bit like Windows Vista was an interim until Microsoft were ready to launch Windows 8 ), to try and stem the drift away from Apple to Android this Christmas, until Apple are ready to introduce the real iPad Mini 2 model next year ?

    It had no big improvement except the retina display, therefore it doesn't really qualify to be called the iPad 2.
    Not true. The iPad mini with Retina Display also has the new A7 CPU, significantly improved GPU, the M7 Motion Coprocessor, probably more RAM (though that's not yet confirmed), and options for larger storage along with a few other new features. So it would by most measures qualify to be called an 'iPad mini 2", though Apple chose not to. They didn't designate the 3rd gen iPad and 4th-gen iPad as "iPad 3" or "iPad 4", either. Why they didn't we can only guess.

    Why can't I download apps I have to pay for on to my new iPad Mini. I have had an Apple id for my iPhone for years and have downloaded app to it, no problems. When I try to download apps to my new iPad Mini, it tells me my billing info has to be confirmed. After confirming with same info that is already there it tells me to contact support, no help up to this point.

    Could the credit card be expired?
    Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
    In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

  • Why won't my apps download on new ipad mini?

    My apps will not download on my new ipad mini?  They remain in the "waiting" stage for days.   have tried deleting and re-downloading one by one, but have not had any success.

    I was having the same problem and I tried the following and now everything is working fine:
    Reset Network Settings. Resetting your network settings is a fast, easy way to trouble shoot your WiFi connection issues on your iPad Mini, and also on your iPad and iPhone as well.  Resetting your network settings allows your device to flush out all cache information from your wireless network, DNS and nameserver settings, etc… basically it allows your device to start fresh on your wireless network.Here’s how to reset your network settings on your iPad Mini (iPhone and iPad as well).
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Tap “Settings” icon on your homepage > tap the “General” option > tap on “Reset” > then finally tap on “Reset Network Settings”. Your iPad will restart.
    Renew IP Address.
    Settings > Wifi > Tap the Blue Arrow (right-hand side) next to the network that you connect to
    Click Auto under HTTP Proxy
    Click Renew Lease
    Connect to your selected network
    Try Safari, then YouTube, then try downloading a free app.
    If you still do not have appropriate connectivity after this, take to your local Apple Store/Reseller and test, fix, or replace.

  • Why my new ipad mini does not have an app store icon?

    I received a new ipad mini as a gift. It came in the original state, unopen, unused, seal intact. After doing the necessary set-up, I found that both the App Store and iTune icons were missing from the home page. I am therefore unable to purchase new apps. Any one facing such problem before? Any advice? Thanks.

    Yup, too many children were making purchases and doing things they were supposed to do. So engineering thought this would solve it

  • We have a new iPad Mini.  I cannot save a new Bookmark.  In Safari, I go to "Share" and select "Add a Bookmark" yet when I click on the Bookmarks icon, my saved Bookmark is not there.  Am I doing something wrong?

    We have a new iPad Mini, and I'm having inconsistent results using Bookmarks in the Safari icon.
    For a long time, on the iPad, I could only see five items under the Bookmark icons and the Bookmarks Bar was empty. 
    Occasionally, in Safari, the iPad would pick up and display all of the Bookmarks from the Safari browser on my iMac. 
    Other times, there are only a bare few Bookmarks available on the iPad, the Bookmarks Bar goes away and I cannot save a new Bookmark.  It looks like I can save one, but I cannot find it after allegedly saving. 
    Then, all of the Bookmarks will come back and I can save a new Bookmark again. We can't figure out why all of the Bookmarks will show and then they won't.
    I want to think this involves iCloud some way, but for right now, I'm stumped.  Perhaps we're just too inexperienced and haven't come around the learning curve yet.
    Thanks for any help.
    Steve

    No, I see the three areas at the bottom of the Bookmark area that you refer to, but that also highlights an issue.  When I want to save a story to my Reading List and click on Share then "Add to Reading List" then go back to look at what is stored in the Reading List, my recently-saved item is not there.
    I looked thru the History tab and the Reading List tab and have been in the Bookmark tab.  But even when I Save a Bookmark, that newly-saved Bookmark does not show up in the Bookmark area.
    But then again, the next day (and actually just in the last half-hour) all of the functionality came back.  When I look at the Bookmarks, suddenly, again, all of the Bookmarks that are on my Safari browser on my iMac are now there, and I can now Save a Bookmark.
    It keeps coming in and out and that is what is driving me a little nuts.
    Thanks.

  • ITunes Match - attempts to turn on for new iPad Mini result in dreaded Transfer message

    Let me start by saying that I did  search these forums for an exact match to my issue, but did not find anything acceptable.
    First, let me be clear, this is a brand new iPad Mini w/Retina Display.   It's replacing my wife's older iPad 3rd Gen device. We restored it via iCloud with my wife's Apple ID.  This same id is what is entered in the iCloud settings on the new device.  iCloud Keychain and Find my iPhone are both on and associated with this same Apple ID. 
    However, for iTunes and App Store purchases, we are using a different Apple ID (mine), which is the same id we used on the prior device for iTunes and App purchases (mirrored settings).  For all intents and purposes, the two device are configured identically (iCloud - her id, iTunes and App purchase - my id).  We are able to download updates, buy new apps, etc.  And, during the restore, all apps were re-installed using my id.  This is normal, and the second scenario described on Apple's support web site page for iTunes Match (using different Apple IDs for iCloud and iTunes Match). Also, just to note that iTunes Match was enable on the old iPad.
    The fact that new iPad is configured for iTunes and App store purchases with my ID, I would think that turning on iTunes Match would be as simple as toggling the switch from off to on.  And, at first, it does.  I get the usually warning about erasing the iTunes libarary  and I click ok.  But a few seconds later I get the dreaded Apple ID transfer message for iTunes Match to work, the whole 90 day timer thing, etc.  You can either cancel the operation or Transfer.  So, my question is as follows:
    Why would I need to transfer the device to the iTunes and App purchases Apple ID for the iTunes to work, if it's already configured to use that same id for iTunes?  The last thing I want to do is transfer the device (iCloud) Apple ID to mine just to turn on iTunes Match.  Makes no sense.
    And, just as an fyi, I've check all the limits (10 total computers and ios devices) for iTunes match, and I'm well below that limit.  I see no reason why enabling iTunes Match would require me to transfer the entrie device to the iTunes and App associated Apple ID.
    Anyway?  At least explain to me that if I hit Transfer, all it will do is allow iTunes Match to work and not effect the iCloud Apple ID setup?

    This is correct. iTunes Match and iCloud are separate services and do not depend on one another. You can have distinct Apple IDs for each one.
