    Anyone getting rid of their ipad 3 to get a mini?

    I also have the iPhone 5 and the iPad 3. I bought the iPad mini at Best Buy and played with it all weekend. Absolutely loved the size! But I could not justify keeping it and returned it today. I was hoping the screen display would not bother me but there truly is a significant difference. So I...

    How is your iPhone 5 battery life?

    I read the review from iMore about the iPhone 5 and it suggested connecting your new iPhone as NEW and not a backup. Stated it was a nuisance to do but was better for battery life. I set mine up as a backup and must say my battery is draining quickly everyday. Yes, I am probably using it more...

    iPhone 5 Shipping/Tracking

    So bummed. I tried to order mine at 0100 on the 14th, site was down. Back up again at 0345, was able to order but my delivery date is Oct 2. Keep in mind I have to be up at 0500 to get ready for work! I have always pre-ordered from the Apple site and have always received my new iPhone on the...

    3G won't connect

    Feel like I'm talking to myself here. But at least I was able to resolve my own issue. Went to At&T yesterday, got a new Sim card which they charged me $16 for! Got the 3G up and running. Took my iPad in to Apple today to have them run diagnostics. All was fine. Learned that there is NO setting...

    3G won't connect

    I have a phone appt. with Apple this evening. Could it be that this new iPad has a corrupt sim card? I did check to make sure there was one installed and it was there. There is no option under Cellular Data to look at APN settings....at all, simply not there.

    3G won't connect

    Just got my Ipad 2 today via FedEx from Apple. Set up my 3G plan on the iPad, all confirmed but will not connect. Called At&T, they verified the account was good to go and should be working. When the tech tried to brainstorm with me, we went in to Cellular data and she wanted me to open settings...

    Laptop owners: Has the iPad made you think about going back to a desktop?

    Same here. I use my iMac regularly. To me it is a must for photo editing and I just love that big screen. Otherwise I take my iPad to work to use during breaks, and at home when it is recliner/tv time it is my lap ready to go. My Macbook is tucked away in a travel case to use as a backup only.

    iPhone 4 video quality issue via MMS

    I was having fun recently putting together some little videos using the iPhone 4 to do the video, then revamping it using iMovies. Nice sharp video quality UNTIL I sent it to others via MMS. Then the video quality is no longer sharp and the audio quality is also poor. Has anyone else had this...

    See what I found in Alaska?

    Just returned from an Alaskan cruise, it was AWESOME!! I'd go back in a minute especially after returning home to HOT TExas weather. We always shop for t-shirts for the kids and I found one made just for me. See attachment. Had decent reception when it was available in ports with iPhone 4.:)...

    iBooks, MobileMe, and iDisk

    Thanks for the suggestion. That would certainly work. So I can't place it on iDisk for them to grab it there?

    iBooks, MobileMe, and iDisk

    I have purchased a couple of books via iBooks to read and would like to share then with a friend who also has an iPad. I tried to store the books on iDisk then sent my friend a link to download them but it is not working. She gets a message that says it cannot be downloaded from Safari. Is...
