Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

Hope this is in the right place. I've installed the Virgin TV anywhere app on my Ipad4, the device wouldn't register, so I registered it on the Virgin app site. When I try to watch a programme via Tivo the app keeps telling me "this device needs to be registered" and I can't access the tv programme on the Ipad. I've tried deleting the and re-registering the device, but no luck. Can anyone please help?

5th generation iPad: iPad Air.

http://store.apple.com/uk/buy-ipad/ipad-air

Thinner, lighter, more powerful. Looks like a larger version of the iPad mini. Released on the 1st of November, replacing the 4th generation iPad's current price-points.



2nd generation iPad mini: iPad mini with Retina display.

http://www.apple.com/uk/ipad-mini/

Same resolution as the full-size iPad with Retina display, with the same A7 chip as the iPad Air. Due "later in November".


For some reason Apple is still keeping the iPad 2 and iPad mini as well.

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

Anybody know if you can pre-order / reserve the iPad Air for store pickup on 2nd November? Can't find a way to do it, and I'm not going on the 1st to queue up - utterly pointless waste of time.

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

I don't think so.

Apple does not seem to be doing pre-orders this year :(

So instead of ordering online tonight and having it delivered on the release date, you have to order *on* the release date and wait, or brave the queues and stock in the store...

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

That's the problem - nobody will be at the address on the 1st as we work - and I can't get it sent to a work address as I may be out with customers, and I don't really want ~£500's worth of iPad being taken back by the courier where I won't be able to collect it from on the Saturday.

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

I'd also much prefer an online reservation for an in-store pickup... Apple has done it with some past products, but seems rather inconsistent. Sometimes when it does do it, it's not until later on after the launch.

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

Apple seem to thrive on the publicity of having people camp and queue outside of their stores. The stores themselves are practically useless as it's nigh-on impossible to get any service and the last time I visited one there were no check-outs.

Maybe Amazon will start taking pre-orders over the next few days, worth keeping an eye out.

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

There are normally a few physical check outs, although if you have an i device with a network connection, you can download the Apple store app that will let you buy products by scanning their barcodes and it will charge whatever payment method you use for the Apple account on that I device.

Failing that, if you are paying by card, and can find a member of staff, they normally have access to a wireless card terminal. I will say that in my experience (I've been in the Regent Street, Covent Garden and various local Apple stores), Apple stores usually have a lot more staff than competing stores (although they do tend to be a lot busier as well).

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

I know, it's a great idea if you have an iPhone but if you don't have one it can be a bit discouraging if you just want to pop in for something on the off-chance. I've always bought via accosting a member of staff but trying to find someone who isn't occupied by tyre kickers can be a challenge in the busy stores like Trafford Centre.

I like the look of this new machine though. I have the iPad3 with 3G and it's a pretty heavy beast so, if ever there was a reason to replace then this is it.

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

Yup. I currently have an iPad 3 and I'll be getting an iPad Air when it's released. The decrease in size and weight is meant to be quite significant, while of course it is also a hell of a lot more powerful...

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

Bah I've come to the conclusion that the quality of the DAC circuit in the iPad is utter crap. I've tried using Sampletank, Sunrizer and a couple of other software instruments in rehearsal via midi interface (because my big sampling/master keyboard doesn't fit in my car) but never been able to get a decent sound out if it.

Practically everything sounds like Brian Eno playing the glockenspiel inside a skip :(

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

I ordered an iPad Air on Friday morning, thinking that it would be like when I ordered my iPad 3 and it would sell out very quickly with deliveries slipping by weeks...

... and yet checking the online store now, Apple is still saying that orders will still be dispatched within 24 hours. I have also seen posts on other forums from people saying that physical shops, including Apple, have lots of stock.

Mine is due on Tuesday, but I wish now I had just gone in the Apple Store on Saturday! Oh well...

Re: The Apple iPad Thread
 

I am thinking of getting one for Christmas so it is interesting to learn all about it. I will be new to I pads.
