  • I have an iPad 1 and would like to buy the new iPad. Will Apple exchange my old iPad for the new one . I live in Saudi Arabia.

    I have an iPad 1 and would like to buy the new iPad. Will Apple exchange my old iPad for the new one . I live in Saudi Arabia.

    Apple does not take trade-ins. You'll have to look for a dealer that does, though you'll probably get more for the iPad 1 if you sell it yourself.

  • Will apple buy back my ipad if I want to upgrade?

    I want to upgrade to a 3G ipad. Will apple buy my wifi ipad for some sort of price?

    Look on thier website, there is some sort of recycling program, but honestly? You'll get more money if you sell your device outright then use the proceeds towards a new one. For an iPad 2 you can probably get 150 - 200ish for it (just look for sold devices on ebay to get a realistic idea of paid prices)

  • Stolen iPad... Can MobileMe help?

    Sorry if these questions have already been asked, they look common but I haven't found answers.
    My iPad (Wifi+3G, iOS 4.2) has been stolen but I had configured a MobileMe account and the service has once detected a location - already reported to the police. However, if the iPad is reinitialized, I understand MobileMe is no longer able to track it. I did write down the SN & UDID of the device.
    Here are my questions:
    Is it possible to reset an iPad to factory settings if it's protected with a passcode (of course the robber has no access to a previously authorized computer)?
    If so, does the device lose the original UDID and get a new one? Or does that UDID remain the same?
    If it isn't changed, can Apple still track the device? Technically it must be possible. Is there any special thing to do for that purpose (e.g. mail a copy of the official complaint)?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi and welcome...
    can Apple still track the device?

  • Due to NAS issues, when I started a new time machine backup it did not have the old backups available. My question is do I need to delete them or will time machine automatically reclaim the space?  Only one Sparse Bundle, same name.

    Due to NAS issues, when I started a new time machine backup it did not have the old backups available. My question is do I need to delete them or will time machine automatically reclaim the space?  There is only one sparse bundle but when I enter time machine I don't see my historic backups.  I use a synology DS212 for my time machine.  Started a new backup which is 218gb but it says 618 gb is occupied  therefore it looks like 2 or 3 backups are still on the disk. Before my NAS issues the last backup was in 2014.  As you can see there is a second sparse bundle from 2012.  Not sure what that is.

    This is an old message now, but what happened to me similarly was:
    I had a major computer crash and through complicated pathways ended up reinstalling (Mavericks) as a new user (long story).
    At least I had good Time Machine backups on an NAS drive (Synology DS212j), or so I thought - when I started Time Machine up again, the old backup file was gone, replaced by a new one using my "new computer" name. The old file was gone both by directly mounting the NAS drive and by clicking "Enter Time Machine".
    It's like I had {OldShareName}.sparsebundle and then it was replaced by {NewShareName}.sparsebundle, all of the old info vanished.
    (I have spent a week finding old files elsewhere and have completed a satisfactory self-restore. It pays to "archive" [my own variation of] as well as "back-up".)
    My belief is that if this were a wired-netword-drive, e.g. plugged right into my iMac with a USB cable, then the old file would have remained.
    But this is an NAS drive, connected directly to my Airport wireless router, and I don't know the significance of the fact that it stores its Time Machine backups as "sparsebundle" files rather than simply as plain(er) files.
    As usual when things get complicated with computers (not just Apple computers) there was never a warning message. Something like "YOU'RE ABOUT TO DELETE A TIME MACHINE BACK-UP FILE!!!" would have made my life a lot simpler.
    BTW, I did try a "restore from Time Machine" option the first thing I had my "new computer" (old hardware, 2009 iMac) up and running, using Migration Assistant, and it ran for many hours and then failed in the wee hours - what that has to do with anything I'm not sure.
    I'm not sure that I have a question about this other than "why do these things happen to me?", but it's a warning. Apart from that I've been very happy with the stability and reliability (but not the cost or set-up complexity) of NAS vs. directly-cabled external drives.

    how can i get ios 7 in my ipad 2? i have tried to update it but in my setting>general there is no icon for software update.so help me please!

    If you are using iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
    To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

    Just bought new AirPort Extreme did everything on manual and light still flashing amber , it is connected to an Arris TM822 from optimum cable company , help please

    Any luck with the suggestions mentioned by Bob Timmons?
    I am having pretty much the same issue.
    Got a new modem Arris SB6141 and a new Airport Extreme ME918LL/A. Activated with my ISP (Comcast). Worked with a savy tech who knew the modem and Airport Extreme. Ensured all items were correct from the ISP side.
    I follow the instructions as indicated for Airport Extreme by it fails to detect the internet and dns servers. Comcast suggested I call apple. Reading posts above I will:
    -Reset the airport extreme
    -Unplug the modem for 30min
    Airport Utility 6.3.4 (634.17)
    Airport Extreme ME918LL/A Firmware Version 7.7.3
    MBP - Yosemite Mid 2012
    Appreciate the assistance folks.

  • How can i wipe out my personal info from my mac

    i would like to know how i can wipe all my personalyy info from my mac

    1: The absolute best way Grade A method would be to remove the storage drive and replace with another, melt the old drive in a +1500º F kiln, or smash it to tiny bits with a sledgehammer / hydraulic press and distribute the pieces into the trash as widespread as possible.
    Then hold c booting from a OS X install disk (10.6 or earlier if th emachine came with that) or hold option key booting from a 10.7 install USB ($69, no user ID associated) and install your OS onto the new drive and shutdown at the Welcome screen.
    2: If you don't want to replace the drive but don't want a wealthy individual, corporation or government using special equipment to read most of your data.
    Then hold c booting from a OS X install disk, (or command r booting from 10.7 Recovery) and using Disk Utility to Erase with 7x overwrite on the OS X boot partition will do. Takes many hours to complete. 
    There might be  small bits left in mapped off sectors, journaled drives, your basically trusting the drive makers / OS maker to erase your drive completely. Then reinstall your OS and shutdown at the Welcome screen.
    3: If you don't want to replace the drive, not all that paranoid, but don't want most anyone using special software like DataRescue to read your deleted data off the drive, then hold c booting from a OS X install disk, (or command r booting from 10.7 Recovery) and using Disk Utility to Erase with Zero will do. Takes about a few hours. Then reinstall your OS and shutdown at the Welcome screen.
    4: If your not the least bit concerned someone could read your deleted data, simply hold c booting from a OS X install disk, (or command r booting from 10.7 Recovery) and using Disk Utility to Erase (with Security Option will do.) Takes about a few seconds. Then quit DU, reinstall your OS and shutdown at the Welcome screen.

  • How do you strip your personal info from an ipad before giving away?

    How do you strip your personal info from an ipad before giving away???

    You can backup your current iPad, and then restore the new iPad from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content (if you don't have the apps on your computer then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)
    This page has info on how to backup and then restore : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 (iCloud is only possible with iOS 5, but if backing up with the idea of restoring to a different iPad I'd backup via your computer's iTunes anyway)

  • HT4623 Updating iPad2 to iOS 7, all my photos in camera rolls are gone, can't locate them anywhere?! Were they just deleted, or is there a way to find them? Did not have iCloud account, so not backed-up there.

    Just updated our iPad2 to iOS 7, and all my photos in camera rolls are gone, can't locate them anywhere. Were they just deleted, or is there a way to find them? Did not have iCloud account, so not backed-up there.

    We're you backing up to a computer using iTunes? If so, restore the backup from there.

  • How do I have Apple deactivate a stolen iPad

    I had an iPad stolen from me. How do I get Apple to make that iPad invaid to use?

    Thank you VERY much for this answer of yours! Tonight a con artist got his hands on my iPad2, and ran. The police wanted the s/n and you helped me find it on my iTunes account. Luckily it's insured, but that doesn't make me feel much better for falling for his game! Apparently he's been doing this, in this area, for the past few nights. Getting himself free Christmas presents, I guess....
    Highly annoyed in Edmonton, Alberta!
    PS: I don't know how to assign points here, but I owe you quite a few stars!

  • Will Apple replace my frayed iPad USB cord if my warranty is still active?

    My iPad USB cable is frayed and does not charge my iPad. It does charge my iPhone 4 fine, but when I plug it into my iPad it says "Not Charging" in the status bar. My warranty is still good, so will Apple replace the cord? Anyone experience this problem?

    Take it to your local Apple retailer to ask. I believe they will replace it for you.
