Wrong autofill langage  on IPad

I have being travelling through France. When I create a new message on gmail under safari (or on this message board) the wrong autofill is used (not english) and english is not recognized. The keyboard is french.

Most of these posts are older, but the problem is the same. My GPS locator is about 600 feet off from my actual location. This is on my iPad Gen 3. The comments are varied and I'm not sure they apply. Chris says the server can be throwing the GPS off. I have a Verizon My-Fi Hotspot, so it is actually right with me and the iPad. Is this different than having a 4G built into the iPad? Apple did not think so.
Also, I have closed and reopened the app several times and the location is always off - even though it varies from about 225 feet to 650 feet and all have been outside in the open. Most of the time, my home location is off by 600+ feet and I have not tried the GPS downtown or in other locations.
Please note that I am not a novice to the use of a GPS. I have used them for years in hunting and traveling. This is, however, my first use with an iPad.
Any thoughts? Thanks!

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    You're gonna have to restore the iPhone from your last backup with iTunes. You did do a backup before you attempted to update the software didn't you?

  • Wrong dates shown in iPad app store updates list

    The dates listed for the app updates in my iPad's app store are wrong! They used to show the date of each app's most recent update, but now they show each app's ORIGINAL availability date. My iPod, on the other hand, doesn't have this problem. What's the deal? When looking at the updates list, the "updated" date is much more useful than the app's original date. Any idea what's wrong and how to fix it?

    I talked to Tech support they told me to go into my time and date settings change to manual setting and set the date and time forward to a random time (several months ahead worked for me)  updates will clear then go back to automatic time.  It is bizzare but it has worked for me.  I certainly do not want or need to see all my updates I hope Apple will change this silly feature.

  • How to enable my ipad air coz of wrong password and Findmy ipad air is on

    How to enable my ipad air because of wrong password and i cannot recover or restore my device coz Find my ipad setting in my device is on. Itunes said this must be off before anything, but i cannot turn it off in setting because device is disable. Help me

    Try DFU mode:
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • Wrong positive spam on ipad

    How can I tell apple that mails in my ipad junk folder are NOT spam, and how to avoid this in the future. It is more than enojing not to get electronic invoices and then have to pay extra cost for delayed payment - can I send these extra invoice to apple?
    Explaining articles are for mac only but do not work for ipads.

    Sorry, I did not tell about the app. It is the genuine bulit in mail with an account on me.com (icloud.com). The junk folder is created by this account automatically, and I  cannot delete it. Once a wrong positive mail is selected there is no way to mark it as wrong positive, so this wrong verdict is avoided for that sender in the future, nor is there any other way to send it back to the SP (apple) to inform him about wrong filter settings and to coreect it.
    Spam filtering is o.k. But I hate when other people evaluate my mails without telling me nor giving me the chance to correct and manage this myself.
    Thanks anyway for your reply.

  • Wrong Cover Art on iPad

    Curious situation.
    I copied a playlist to iPad (New) from iTunes with all the cover art for each track.
    When I play the tracks on the iPad the cover art is wrong for every track.
    When I play the exact same tracks - from the iPad - using iTunes on my MacBook Pro - the cover art is perfect.
    Exacts same tracks - wrong art when played on iPad, correct art when played from the iPad through iTunes on my Mac.
    Any ideas?

    Found the solution at:

    When accessing movies using the movie app on iPad and the movie thumbnail doesn't match, go to general setting on the ipad > movie > and logout (or enter the wrong password so that it logs off) of sharing, then log back in.  It will refresh all your music and movie thumbnails to match the movies you share using your home network. All credit goes to the person that posted this fix via the link above.
    Not sure yet if it has to be done again after new movies are added, but it's an easy short-term fix and works better then pulling your hair out.

  • Autofill Error on iPad

    When I go to, for example, register on a forum, I almost always have to type out my email address which can become quite tedious. At other times, a similar, but wrong email address appears. I have tried repeatedly to find out how to sort this out without success. Can someone provide a step by step instruction please?
    PS Have no idea where to post this thread.

  • Can't set up my mail or internet whats wrong on my new ipad

    Got new ipad and we downloaded the itunes fine, but we can not get our mail or open to the internet, what are we doing wrong..???
    johnfromfallon

    And this is why you can not access mail.  You are not connected to the internet.  If you are not, you will never get your mail account to work.  It's late and I'm heading to bed, but if you have a wifi unit, you need to get connected to your home router.  When you turn on wifi, you should see a list of the routers near you, including your routher.  When you check that router, it will within a minute or so, ask for your password.  I wish Apple would change that to say encryption key.  The encryption key is what is being asked here.  And the encryption key (which you should be able to find on the router) is a 13 digit combination of letters and numbers.  It would look something like this: 3NE45A6BZ32H8 
    Now, if you've already put in a password, but it wasn't the right encryption key code, go into settings and reset your network settings and choose the router again and then input the encryption key.  Hopefully, that will get you connected to wifi.  Then you can add your yahoo acount and it should work.
    Sorry I can't hang out with you longer, but I've got an early work day tomorrow.

  • Safari & Password Autofill on my iPad 2

    Just got a new (second) iPad. I have been unable to set Safari to auto load user names/passwords for repeat websites. I have been to Settings/Safari/Passwords & Autofill, and have also set up Keychain in iCloud.
    Have reset, rebooted & prayed. Still no luck. Any other suggestions?

    Tap "Private" to turn off Private Browsing on Safari Screen. Make sure top of screen is white (Private Browsing off)

  • New to ipad but have charged it and done what I think should be done however the time shows about 8 hours wrong but find my ipad is on???

    Hi, to change the time and/or date go into Settings, general, Date & Time. From here you have the option to "set automatically", if you turn this off a third option will appear where you can manually set the time and date. Hope this helps.

  • TS3376 Why does my Mac appear at the wrong location, yet my iPad appears at the correct addrtess?

    I switched on Find my Mac and iPad just to check it worked and the Mac appears at the wrong address and with a totally different postcode, yet the iPad appears over the correct address? (They have the road name incorrect but that is the same on Google maps!)

    My Retina MBP, my Mac Mini and my iPad have a location that is not just a bit inaccurate but in the wrong country. I have now been at my French house for over a week and locations on all three of these have not updated from my UK address. This shows in Auto Time and Date location, Maps and Find my Mac/iPhone. My two iPhones (UK and France) have updated as expected. I have tried switching location in Time and Date to somewhere odd (Delhi), deleting the com.apple.maps.plist, all to no avail. I have done a reset on the iPad. All to no avail. All three think they are still in the UK. Any way to force a location update.
