    No 15-sec skip in Podcasts app now

    However, others seem to still have the option since upgrading to iOS 9. I use this feature all the time but am bot restoring just to see if that helps. I wondered if it was another audio-Podcast-only feature but that doesn't seem to be the case. I can still swipe up or use the Watch to skip...

    Siri won't add relationships? Here's a tip.

    In a recent iMore article, we were told how to let Siri know about your relationships to your contacts. That way, you could tell Siri to call your mom or wife without having to say their names*. Unfortunately, some of us have found that Siri will not remember our contacts' relationships to us...

    Grooveshark (beta) is back...

    ...but not via the App Store. My newest iOS devices are UNjailbroken and I've really been fiending for the jailbreak benefits - including Grooveshark. I checked their website, via my 4S, though, and it had a beta option that didn't let me log into my account but definitely let me play music of...

    Grooveshark Beta - no jb required

    My newest iOS devices are UNjailbroken and I've really been fiending for the jailbreak benefits - including Grooveshark. I checked their website, via my 4S, though, and it had a beta option that didn't let me log into my account but definitely let me play music of my choice. I thought any big...

    Music disappeared

    My iTunes Match music that I had downloaded onto my iPad New just disappeared between yesterday and today. No one seems to know why. I can redownload the songs, but I need to know what happened so that I can be secure that it won't happen, again. The Apple CSR had nothing fo me (but attitude...

    Grandfathered Unlimited 3G carry-over LTE

    I didn't see anyone talking about this. I apologize it I missed it and this is repetitious. I really fretted over which iPad data provider/model to use. I was concerned that I would risk my unlimited 3G plan, as i had been told that there IS no unlimited LTE plan for the iPad New...

    Charging issues?

    At Best Buy, the four demo iPads on the prominent display were having some consistent charging issues after the first day. It started to make me wonder if there was a problem with the new iPad's charging system. T be fair, though, one of those four devices was the iPad 2 model. When I finally...

    Hard drive's dead; can I sync/upgrade w/o losing data?

    Like the title says, I'm not sure if I will lose any data that's currently on my iPad if/when I sync/upgrade from a different computer (or on the same computer once it has a new hard drive). A search didn't produce any duplicate threads so I apologize if this has been done to death. Thanks.

    "Unlimited" iPad 3G'ers can't auto monitor data usage

    I find this odd and annoying. I have the unlimited data plan on my iPad 3G but can't view my data usage on the device or on AT&T's website (they confirm this). It is certainly not the end of the world, but I wondered if anyone else was annoyed or surprised by this. I can call AT&T to find out...

    Does your iPad battery drain more quickly around 10%?

    The battery life on the ipad is fantastic, but I remember someone around here saying that it may not be linear or something. I gathered that s/he meant that the percentage not he battery meter may not drop at the same rate throughout a given usage cycle. I'm starting to think that he or she...

    Tricking the YouTube app on iPad 3G

    The YouTube app on 3G iPads downgrades video quality when on 3G. + When the same video is viewed on the same iPad, but via wifi, the quality is as it should be (ie without the added pixelation). + I can use a mobile phone to create a wifi hotspot, but it's usually not good/fast enough for...

    Gettingg spammed since AT&T gave up my email address

    Getting spammed since AT&T gave up my email address I was one of the iPad users whose email address, etc was revealed in that exploit from a few weeks, ago. I know because AT&T sent me a long, rambling letter to that effect. Not long after that, I started getting more unfiltered spam than...

    iPad USB mounting: How useful?

    I like that I can drop files on my iPad by connecting it to my pc via USB, but I don't see *any* apps that can access files from the USB partition (if that's the right word for it). Maybe that's because they can't or maybe it will happen once developers have had more time. I suspect it's the...

    How much 3G data per month have you used on your iPad?

    How much 3G data per month have you used on your iPad? If you've had it less than a month, then please estimate your usage by the end of the month. I ask because AT&T apparently claims that most of their users consume less than 2GB per month (which they decided about while the 3G iPad was less...

    iPad users in your area

    Sometimes, do you wish you knew other iPad users in your area? I never see anyone else with an iPad and, judging by the responses on a previous thread and the reactions of people who stop me on the street, neither do most of you. If you'd kinda like to, maybe it would help if we'd just post...

    How often do you see iPad's "in the wild" where you live?

    I never have. Not once. Now that I think about it, I guess that explains the reaction I get when people see mine. They've probably seen as many in the wild as I have - zero. (You'd think they would have seen one in Best Buy, at least, though.) Anyway, Tallahassee isn't that big, although it...

    Is your 3G iPad's AT&T signal indicator accurate?

    I was amazed and very pleased to see that my AT&T signal was so strong most places I went, until I started noticing slower page loading or streaming, DESPITE having all five bars. Does this often happen to the rest of you? I later remembered that I had heard people on Buzz Out-Loud say that...

    20MB download limit per item on iPad 3G

    Hi. I tried to download The "small" version of the TWiT video netcast but the iPad 3G said I would have to use a wifi network to download it,since the file was more than 20MB in size. Have any of you had a similar experience? I thought it was odd considering the fact that iTunes has movies...

    IPad storage gripes unfair? (re: solid state drive)

    When solid state drives wander into my view, they always boast near-instant boot-up and fess-up to limited storage. Is it unfair to judge the 64 GB local storage limits of the iPad, considering the fact that we can boot, from scratch, in 10 - 15 seconds or restarting in under 30 seconds? The...
