RE: iPad mini with thumb drives, useful for anything besides photos?

2021-09-25 Thread Richard Turner
HI Mary,

Well, on my SE 2020, the adapter works great for Voice Dream Reader for 
anything you want.  Obviously, Bookshare is easiest gotten directly.
But, if you put zipped audio files, word files, mp3 files, anything VDR will 
read, you can download them from the USB Drive by using his File Browser and 
making sure to start at the top of the structure so you have the list of 
locations rather than being in the last one you had used.  It is nice that it 
remembers though, so once you download from a thumb drive, the next time you 
select File Browser from the Add menu, you are on your thumb drive.

I've heard you can do this with BARD from Dropbox, but I have no idea.  I tried 
downloading a BARD book onto the drive, but again, it will be far easier to do 
that through the app.  Especially now that their library is on the cloud.  
Downloads are extremely fast.

I wouldn't think Audible would ever be that flexible.

Which Mini do you have now?

Subject: iPad mini with thumb drives, useful for anything besides photos?

I am intrigued by the most recently released iPad mini, but I am not intrigued 
by the fact that the entry-level model has just 64 GB, and then you have to pay 
a whopping $150 more to get  256 GB. No 128, a blatant and obvious upsell if 
ever there was one.

I know you can access thumb drives with the Files app. But I haven't heard of 
any of the apps that we would be more likely to use, such as voice dream, 
audible, Bard mobile, Ha ha ha, actually being able to take advantage of such a 
facility. I would like to be able to download things right onto a thumb drive. 
I am pretty sure that's not possible. But I would like to be wrong. At the very 
least, if there were a way to download a bunch of stuff onto a thumb drive via 
a PC and then easily transfer that on to the iPad as necessary, that would 
work. But of course the other way would be more convenient. Does anybody have 
any experience here?

Richard yes this was rumoured a couple of months back,

The idea sounds nice and with the finger print id on the power button  like the 
air 4,

But my question is when do they release the mini with a smart folio keyboard?

That to me is one big thing missing from the mini a keyboard that works

RE: iPad mini generation six

2021-07-14 Thread Richard Turner
Well, if it is an iPod then yes, it could be a 6th generation.
If it is an iPad Mini, it cannot be a 6th generation as those have not been 
released yet.
The latest version of the iPad Mini is the 5th generation which was released 
March 18, 2019; 2 years ago.

The iPad Mini that was available in 2018 was the 4th generation.

It could be that you are reading some Apple internal model information that is 
very confusing.
Until the latest ioS, my iPhone SE 2020 was often shown as an iPhone 12  
Apple seems to have gotten their act together a little, but apparently not on 
your Ipad.

Re: iPad Mini 5

2021-06-01 Thread Richard Turner
My wife has the iPad mini 5 and loves it. I suspect since the original SE got 
iOS 14, that the mini 5 is going to be able to take iOS updates for several 
more years. My guess is at least 4 more.

RE: iPad Mini 5 Orientation?

2021-01-24 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Sorry I’m not sure I understand,

If you have voiceover on,
Then when you tip the iPad on to it’s side the ipad will tell you its in 
landscape with home button to side which ever.

The home button is at the bottom of the tablet,
The camera is at the top and in the centre if I remember correctly,
Power button is on the top edge, at the right hand end back slightly from the 
corner

Volume buttons are on the right hand edge, just below the top right corner of 
the tablet,
I’m sure you can feel both power on top and volume on the side,

Headphone jack is on the top edge, at left hand end of surface,
Left hand side of the tablet is the surface which smart covers manetically 
connect to
The bottom of the tablet
This bottom edge has the speakers
Lightening connecter port located.
Then you have the bck and the front.

Well, if you think of an iPhone, with the home button at the bottom, on the 
right side are the volume buttons, and on the top side, kind of on the back 
edge near the right side is the power, lock button. 

The earphone jack is on the top side near the left edge.

A folio keyboard is a case that folds around your iPad and has a keyboard in 
the front half
Your iPad stands up on a slight angle and lets you type like on a notebook 
computer

If you’re not worried about screen size then go for the iPad mini,

It’s only a year older and should I would think be cheaper than the air.

Hi Fazil

It really depends on what your doing and whether you need the larger screen

Otherwise you don’t I believe have the home button on the air,
But you do have a finger id sensor on the power button which is of course on 
the top,
You can get a smart folio keyboard with / for the air but no keyboard from

The processor of course is newer in the air
And the screen I believe is better,

But your bigg thing is the size, so would you want the larger 10.? Screen size 
or the 7.9 inch screen size,

And that other question is what’s your budget?

I will also say I’ve got a 2018 11inch iPad Pro with smart folio keyboard

And a iPad Mini 5

Subject: iPad Mini 5th Gen Or iPad Air 2020 256GB?

 

Hi, Group.

Please help me decide.

I am in the market to purchase an iPad 256GB. Now I am debating between iPad 
Mini or iPad Air 2020.

It is $240 difference between these two. I like the size of iPad Mini.

Being a totally blind user, would I be missing something in iPad Mini which is 
available in iPad Air?

I am not worried about A14 Bionic chip in iPad Air.

Anything important that I should go for iPad Air, not for iPad Mini?

Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

RE: iPad Mini 5th Gen Or iPad Air 2020 256GB?

2021-01-21 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Hi Fazil

It really depends on what your doing and whether you need the larger screen 
size?

Otherwise you don’t I believe have the home button on the air,
But you do have a finger id sensor on the power button which is of course on 
the top,
You can get a smart folio keyboard with / for the air but no keyboard from 
apple for the mini 5.

The processor of course is newer in the air
And the screen I believe is better,

But your bigg thing is the size, so would you want the larger 10.? Screen size 
or the 7.9 inch screen size,

And that other question is what’s your budget?

I will also say I’ve got a 2018 11inch iPad Pro with smart folio keyboard
Cellular & wifi
256gb
Which is in excellent condition

And a iPad Mini 5
Cellular and wifi
256GB
Again in excellent condition,
Both space grey,

That is an OK speed, if you continue to experience issues with downloading apps 
of any sort your provider must be blocking something and as I said before, you 
should ask them why this doesn't work when you are on your WiFi and why it 
worked instantly when you were connected to the WiFi at the store where you

Hello Sieghard
Thanks, I downloaded SpeedTest on my iPhone. It is interesting that the app 
gives the result in mega bits. I am used to kilo bytes and mega bytes. My 
result shows download speed = 12.3 mega bits which, if I am not mistaken, is 
1.53 mega bytes per second. In foreign countries this might be slow but here in 
SA a speed of 900 kbps or more is quite fast over a cell network. I use 
Internet Download Manager to download large files and it seldom shows more than 
900 KBPS, so this result of 1.53 MBPS is quite fast here. Or am I wrong with my

As for calling Apple Accessibility in the US, if you have Skype you can call US

everybody lives in the US, Canada, Australia, new Zealand or most European 
countries where having a good and  for the most part unlimited WiFi connection 
is taken for granted.
Even in Canada this may not be the case if you live in a remote or rural area. 
My family, for example, have a cattle ranch in northeastern British Columbia. 
The closest town where you find any decent shopping such as a few super 
markets, hardware stores, office supply stores etc. is 130 Km away (that’s 80 
mile sfor those in the US) and that is one-way. With winter driving conditions 
that can be an almost 2 hour trip and while there is reasonably good cell phone 
coverage at the ranch, the only internet they can get is either by satellite 
with a company called XploreNet or by using a smart hub which connects to the 
cellular network (usually it’s slow LTE, but sometimes it drops down to 3G) and 
the plan my Mom has, for example, gives her 3 Gb for $45, if she is over 3 Gb 
and below 5 Gb it goes to $55, between 5 and 10 Gb it goes to $75 and if it’s 
over 10 GB it gets really expensive. If she has an iOS update and a Windows 
update in 1 month that can easily be 5 Gb right there without any regular 
usage. This means things like Netflix or streaming music are not even worse 
considering and she limits checking things out on YouTube to the absolutely 
necessary. She also has 6 Gb on her iPhone plan and mostly she doesn’t even 
have it connected to her WiFi because it’s the same cellular network anyways 
and at least this way she can mostly keep her smart hub data for use with her 
computer and things like app updates are done via cellular data. Now that Apple 
has made it possible to download even larger apps via cellular data that is a 
good thing for her.

Sieghard

Are you sure your wifi connection is good? 

This sounds like something is up with your internet connection.

Or, there is an issue with the wifi antenna in the iPad.

I don't remember where you live if you can call Apple Accessibility and have 
them do a diagnostic.

Yes, 800 is one of the many toll free prefixes.  888, 877, 866, 855, 844, are 
also toll free prefixes.
Apple uses 877 for their accessibility support, while Microsoft uses 800 for 
their accessibility support.

Hello Brian
Thanks for your suggestion but I live in South Africa and phone calls from SA 
are very expensive. I shall have to plan to get to the instore where I 
purchased the iPad. I used to be a huge apple supporter but this time I am very 
disappointed because none of the suggestions on the apple support site solved 
the problem.

Yes, this is the strange side. I downloaded Audible, Kindle, Playgrounds, and a

Are you sure your wifi connection is good? 
This sounds like something is up with your internet connection.
Or, there is an issue with the wifi antenna in the iPad.
I don't remember where you live if you can call Apple Accessibility and have

Fanus,
I just sent a note to the list with Apple support numbers around the world, 
Here is the one for South Africa in case you don’t already have it.  It doesn’t 
say Accessibility support specifically. South Africa
0800 444 426

HTH,

RE: iPad Mini built-in apps do not open

2020-02-01 Thread Richard Turner
First, Apple Accessibility is 877-204-3930, not 800.  At least the US number is 
877.

My wife got an iPad Mini 5 in June and has never had this problem.
It is either a bad unit, or a connection problem.
I don’t see what web sites treatment of the device has anything to do with 
downloading of apps in the app store.

Hello Terri
That was one of the options which I tried but I still have the same problem. I 
have just deleted the facetime app and then I opened the app store and searched 
for facetime. I double tapped on the redownload button and got the same message 
"unable to download, try again later". It is the first time in ten years that I 
encounter problems with an iDevice, so this is a huge disappointment.

Hello Fanus,
You might try the following:
Do another reset on the new iPad,
Next, for setting it up, try to initiate set up using your other iDevice 
(iPhone or iPad),
First initiate setup on the new device, and you should be prompted to choose 
how you want to do the set up. Also you may be asked if you want to use another 
iDevice to set up this iPad.
Bring the two devices together and follow the prompts. This does a direct 
transfer without using the cloud. I recently set up my new phone from the cloud 
and lost a few of my apps including the money identifier app.
Best,
Terri

RE: iPad Mini built-in apps do not open

2020-01-30 Thread Fanus Buys
Hello Richard

Yes, this is the strange side. I downloaded Audible, Kindle, Playgrounds and a 
few others from the app store. All apps which I downloadd do work. It is just 
most of the built-in apps which refuse to download and open.

Regards

Fanus

Are you sure your wifi connection is good? 

This sounds like something is up with your internet connection.

Or, there is an issue with the wifi antenna in the iPad.

I don't remember where you live if you can call Apple Accessibility and have 
them do a diagnostic.

RE: iPad Mini built-in apps do not open

2020-01-30 Thread Terri Hedgpeth
Hello Fanus,
You might try the following:
Do another reset on the new iPad,
Next, for setting it up, try to initiate set up using your other iDevice 
(iPhone or iPad),
First initiate setup on the new device, and you should be prompted to choose 
how you want to do the set up. Also you may be asked if you want to use another 
iDevice to set up this iPad.
Bring the two devices together and follow the prompts. This does a direct 
transfer without using the cloud. I recently set up my new phone from the cloud 
and lost a few of my apps including the money identifier app.
Best,
Terri

RE: iPad mini 5: what does this mean

Hello Keith & Sieghard

What worries mee is that some apps say “double tap to open” but nothing happens 
when I double tap. My iPad is connected to wifi and after 24 hours some apps 
still say “downloading 1 percent”. Even Read To Go which I downloaded from the 
app store does not open when I double tap on it.

I'll probably order one next month along with a otterbox case for it.

Mine's on order, but not available before April. 64G and silver is good
enough. This is uK, same amount in £ as $s.

I'm very tempted to get the 256 gb version.  I listen to a lot of old time
radio and it takes up a lot of space.

I'm wondering if the current otterbox defender case for the ipad mini 4 will
work with the new ipad mini 4?

Subject: iPad mini, are you going to buy one?

Hi folks,
I found today’s announcement of a new iPad mini interesting. I had a really
old one, which was painfully slow. And when they made iOS 12, I was
surprised that my old iPad mini was eligible for the upgrade. Well iOS 12
did slightly seem to improve the performance of that tablet, what drove me
crazy was the introduction of the new jesters where you can slide up from
the bottom to get the app switcher or the home screen. Since the iPad had
the home button, I thought introducing those jesters to my old iPad was a
bad idea. And they didn’t do it with the phone, my iPhone 7 is still
blessedly free of those gestures which it does not need. Introduction of
those jesters was the straw that broke the camels back. My iPad mini is now
gone. I don’t know if having a faster processor would make it more
responsive or whatever. I like the form factor. But the iPad has big
vessels, and when you get your finger in the area where those jesters take
effect, whether it’s the top or the bottom, it’s kind of an issue, at least
it was for me. So I’m wondering if folks currently using iPads are having
the same issue I did with moving your finger around the screen being
interfered with by the presence of these gestures. And who plans to buy an
iPad mini? Why or why not?

Re: iPad mini

2017-08-03 Thread christopher hallsworth
Hello, sorry, those storage options are not new, but the 32 GB is now the 
baseline and not the 16 GB which has been discontinued. The 64 GB storage 
option is also discontinued hence the only two storage options now, 32 GB 
(baseline) and 128 GB.

the 128 gb 6th generation came out when the 6 came out, so it isn't new. 
Unless, they have released a 256 without making a fuss.
I bought the 128 iPod 6 when it first came out.

Hi Helga,
  I’m glad you are enjoying your iPad Mini. I have had mine for nearly 2 and a 
half years. Prior to that, I was using an iPad 3.
  I have also been an iPhone user for 6 years and obtained my iPhone 7 silver, 
256 GB, last week. I absolutly love it! The audio is amazing and the batery 
life is so much better than the 6.

RE: IPad Mini 4

2017-01-14 Thread Merv Keck
I chose a Mini 4 on  the AT Next plan because I already had two iPhones on 
the plan. So adding the 128 GB Mini 4 was the more economical option for me as 
far as tablets were concerned. It was also the perfect size and was fast enough 
to do everything I needed it to do. In two years from September 2016 I will 
trade it in for something more up to date also on the Next plan so my 
investment is minimal.

Although it sounds great on its own, I tend to pair it with a Bluetooth 
keyboard and speaker. And it is extremely convenient.

Hmmm, my iPad Mini 4 has stereo speakers at the bottom, on either side of the 
charging port.

I went for the portability of the Mini, and for the apps I’ve tried so far, 
it’s been working great.

Having come out in September 2015, I would bet it will be supported for several 
years yet.

As to this whole old products thing, I know someone who is still using an iPad 
Mini 2. She uses the BARD Mobile app, listens to described movies on Netflix, 
reads her money, runs the KNFB Reader on it, gets on Facebook, and probably 
more I don’t know about, all with no problems. People should be wary of feeling 
that they need the newest and fastest because it ain’t necessarily so.

Hi Paula,
That's great. I'm glad you're still getting some use out of it.
Anyone thinking about an iPad now has a bit of a dilemma though.
My feeling on that is that if you really want a device, you should just get 
it. There's always going to be something new and faster with more features 
coming out not too long after you get whatever you get anyway, so if you 
wait around, you'll always feel that you got an obsolete machine no matter 
when you buy it because, technically, it is obsolete almost as soon as it 
gets to the public. So just get it when you want it.
The devices we have now are so marvelous anyhow that even the obsolete ones 
are pretty impressive when you think about it.

Re: IPad Mini 4

2017-01-14 Thread Evan Reese
Well, as I've already said, chip speed is only one factor when considering a 
device, so there is no argument involving speed by itself.
If I were able to drive, I wouldn't let how fast a car can accelerate be my 
only consideration when deciding on which one to buy.
Someone who is considering an iPad now should definitely think about how 
large a device they want, especially if they're going to be carrying it 
around very much, and also how substantial the likelihood is that new iPads 
will be appearing later this year. If Russ is correct that the rumors say 
nothing about a new iPad Mini, and if size is really important to her, then 
she will have to decide on whether to get the Mini 4, even though it is 
older technology. If size isn't important, then she might want to wait and 
see if new iPads come out in the not too distant future.

Hi,

I never said that people who currently own a device should upgrade
just because it's a few years old; this discussion is about someone
who wishes to buy a device but isn't sure which one to go for.
I delt with the price and size arguements in a previous message.
Assuming you're buying outright price is against the mini here as it's
more expensive than higher spec iPads. The size, as I have mentioned
multiple times is IMO the one thing the mini has going for it - in
fact in terms of size I prefer it to my air 2.

Out of interest, what are the arguements that can be given when
arguing that the 1.5GHZ CPU found in the A8 is better than the 2.16GHZ
CPU found in the A9X?

Ben.

Well, "better" is a subjective term. If you can get it at a cheaper price,
and you don't mind the size, then I suppose the Pro is better. But if you

factor in what you're using it for, then the iPad Mini 4 is better. And,

I just mentioned, someone I know is perfectly happy with her iPad Mini 2,

Chip speed is just one factor. There are other factors in deciding whether
one device is "better" than another, including price and size.

Evan,

Perhaps I'm getting the wrong end of the stick here, but do you
genuinely think that when looking at cold hard numbers the 9.7 pro
isn't better than the mini 4?
The mini 4 uses the A8 SoC and has a 1.5GHZ CPU.
The 9.7 Pro uses the A9X SoC and has a 2.16GHZ CPU.
It's a very simplistic way of looking at it, but 2.16 is a bigger
number than 1.5, there for it is better.

Of course, some people may feel that the increase in performance isn't
enough to justify purchasing it and that the smaller size of the mini
makes up for its outdated technology. that's fine, but that's an
opinion, whereas it is a simple fact that the 9.7 pro contains a
better CPU than the mini 4.

Cheers,
Ben.

2017-01-14 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Hi,

I never said that people who currently own a device should upgrade
just because it's a few years old; this discussion is about someone
who wishes to buy a device but isn't sure which one to go for.
I delt with the price and size arguements in a previous message.
Assuming you're buying outright price is against the mini here as it's
more expensive than higher spec iPads. The size, as I have mentioned
multiple times is IMO the one thing the mini has going for it - in
fact in terms of size I prefer it to my air 2.

Out of interest, what are the arguements that can be given when
arguing that the 1.5GHZ CPU found in the A8 is better than the 2.16GHZ
CPU found in the A9X?

Cheers,
Ben.

Well, "better" is a subjective term. If you can get it at a cheaper price, 
and you don't mind the size, then I suppose the Pro is better. But if you 
want a smaller device, and the (rather small) speed difference isn't a 
factor in what you're using it for, then the iPad Mini 4 is better. And, as 
I just mentioned, someone I know is perfectly happy with her iPad Mini 2, 
using all the apps she wants to use with no problems. So which is "better"?
Chip speed is just one factor. There are other factors in deciding whether 
one device is "better" than another, including price and size.

Evan,

Perhaps I'm getting the wrong end of the stick here, but do you
genuinely think that when looking at cold hard numbers the 9.7 pro
isn't better than the mini 4?
The mini 4 uses the A8 SoC and has a 1.5GHZ CPU.
The 9.7 Pro uses the A9X SoC and has a 2.16GHZ CPU.
It's a very simplistic way of looking at it, but 2.16 is a bigger
number than 1.5, there for it is better.

Of course, some people may feel that the increase in performance isn't
enough to justify purchasing it and that the smaller size of the mini
makes up for its outdated technology. that's fine, but that's an
opinion, whereas it is a simple fact that the 9.7 pro contains a
better CPU than the mini 4.

Cheers,

Re: IPad Mini 4

2017-01-14 Thread Evan Reese
Hmmm, my iPad Mini 4 has stereo speakers at the bottom, on either side of the 
charging port.
I went for the portability of the Mini, and for the apps I’ve tried so far, 
it’s been working great.
Having come out in September 2015, I would bet it will be supported for several 
years yet.
As to this whole old products thing, I know someone who is still using an iPad 
Mini 2. She uses the BARD Mobile app, listens to described movies on Netflix, 
reads her money, runs the KNFB Reader on it, gets on Facebook, and probably 
more I don’t know about, all with no problems. People should be wary of feeling 
that they need the newest and fastest because it ain’t necessarily so.

If you can handle just a slightly larger iPad, the 9.7 inch Pero is awesome! I 
have both the mini 4 and that is what my husband uses. My pro does better than 
that mini. Just a thought.

Well, I got my iPad Mini 4 last April, and the price for the 128GB model was
slightly better than for the 64GB one, so I went for that. I didn't want to
carry around one of those big slabs, and while the reviews I read certainly
did indicate that there was a slight difference in speed between the Mini 4
and the Air, for me, it didn't sound worth the inconvenience of the bigger
unit.
Now, in 2017, if I were hearing that a new iPad might be in the offing, I
might consider waiting to see what develops. But that wasn't the case when I
got mine last April.

Hi,

That depends on your definition of cope; mine's most likely different
to yours so listing examples would be rather pointless.

The CPU is the same one that is in the iPhone 6, so the question you
have to ask yourself is if you'd buy a 6 in 2017 when there are 2
newer options available.
The cheaper price arguement doesn't work either: in the UK at least if
you buy a mini from Apple you'll be paying £400. I recently purchased
a brand new iPad air 2 for £330. Admitidly the bump in spec isn't
huge, but a: that represents nearly a 20% decreace in price and b: one
hopes that Apple will support it for slightly longer with iOS updates.
To me at least, in 2017, the only reason I can see for someone to buy
a mini is the smaller screen. To be fair this does make some
difference to me - I was using a handfull of mini's to deliver a
workshop the other day & they're much nicer to hold than the airs, but
that definitely doesn't mean it makes sense to spend more money on a
less capable device.

Cheers,
Ben.

Hi Evan,

I agree with you.

Either way, it's still a great computer to use and so I use it on a daily
basis.

I happen to know that there are people I know that are still using a
computer with Windows XP on it.  They don't use Internet Explorer, and 
just


use Firefox, and they can't even get iTunes installed on it because the
latest version won't support it.

Regardless of that, one does find that apps tend to get more and more
sophisticated and processor intense, and so end getting slower and slower.
The device ends up taking longer and longer to load apps, and the simplest
functions end up getting more difficult and time consuming.

I agree with your mindset, as long as it will run it, why the heck not and
keep using a tried and true device.

I'm still using a 4S and have no intention of upgrading to the 7, least of
all it's lack of a headphone jack.  Smiles.

Okay, okay, that might be true theoretically, but the real question is,
what
apps do people want or need to use that a given device can't run because 
it

is too slow or for some other reason is outdated. That is the only
practical
question. If there are significant numbers of apps, or even a few, that a
lot of people want or need that they can't run on their device, then the
device is for all practical purposes obsolete. But if there are none, or 
at

least none that people really want or need that it can't run, then what
practical difference does it make how old it is?

Actually, the rule of thumb is that computer technology becomes outdated
within six months of it's beta release, in other words, when it's released
to the public.

For a chip, I don't think just under two years is ancient, but it is 
rather

old, Especially when you compare it to today's chips.

I just bought an iPad mini 4 through my carrier for $20.00 down. And yeah, 
probably too should've waited. But, all that said, this feels just as snappy as 
my Mom's iPad Air 2. My thinking is that the A8 drives the 7.25" screen as fast 
as my Mom's iPad Air 2 drives the 9.25" screen. My .02 worth. Will I upgrade 
someday? Sure. I had to settle for a 32gb anyway.

Well, I got my IPad Mini 4 last April, and the price for the 128GB model was
slightly better than for the 64GB one, so I went for that. I didn't want to
carry around one of those big slabs, and while the reviews I read certainly
did indicate that there was a slight difference in speed between the Mini 4
and the Air, for me, it didn't sound worth the inconvenience of the bigger
unit.
Now, in 2017, if I were hearing that a new iPad might be in the offing, I
might consider waiting to see what develops. But that wasn't the case when I
got mine last April.

Hi,

That depends on your definition of cope; mine's most likely different
to yours so listing examples would be rather pointless.

The CPU is the same one that is in the iPhone 6, so the question you
have to ask yourself is if you'd buy a 6 in 2017 when there are 2
newer options available.
The cheaper price arguement doesn't work either: in the UK at least if
you buy a mini from Apple you'll be paying £400. I recently purchased
a brand new iPad air 2 for £330. Admitidly the bump in spec isn't
huge, but a: that represents nearly a 20% decreace in price and b: one
hopes that Apple will support it for slightly longer with iOS updates.
To me at least, in 2017, the only reason I can see for someone to buy
a mini is the smaller screen. To be fair this does make some
difference to me - I was using a handfull of mini's to deliver a
workshop the other day & they're much nicer to hold than the airs, but
that definitely doesn't mean it makes sense to spend more money on a
less capable device.

Cheers,
Ben.

Re: IPad Mini 4

2017-01-13 Thread Evan Reese

Hi,

Is there no way you could cope with a full size iPad? The Minis use
really old technology by todays standards.

Hi Jim.

If you are using iCloud your contacts should already be there.  If you sign in

A couple of questions re IPad Mini 4

2015-09-20 Thread M.Nelson
when the excitement settles down, I intend to get a Mini4. I won’t be using it 
for phone calls, don’t use a BT keyboard and seldom use it for email, so are 
there any other “gotchas” that I should be aware of? Also, is the screen always 
split or just with certain apps?
Thanks,
Marie

Re: IPad Mini and bluetooth keyboards

2014-12-09 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hello. Ever since IOS  8.0 you need to turn quick navigation mode off to type 
with a Bluetooth keyboard. That should help.



 On Dec 3, 2014, at 7:56 PM, Jeff Clark jeffclark...@comcast.net wrote:
 
 Hello,
 Does anyone know if the Amazon Basic Bluetooth keyboard is compatible with 
 IOS 8.1? I upgraded my IPad Mini and Iphone 5s to the latest IOS .1 and the 
 keyboard is not working correctly. Specifically using the keyboard to enter 
 text in edit boxes. I have an another IPAD mini with IOS 7 and it works fine. 
 Does anyone know what I may do with the Amazon keyboard to have it work 
 correctly? Firmware update or something?
 Ok, now if this is a barrier with the IOS 8.1, can I put my IPad back to IOS 
 7? Any recommendations for Bluetooth keyboards that will work with IOS 8 and 
 voiceover?
 Thanks in advance,
 Jeff

Hi Linda,

Did you try it with a headset? Chances are the volume dropped to 0 so you can 
see if Voiceover works with a headset. If so then put focus at the top of your 
home screen, unplug he headset and start Voiceover reading continuously with a 
2-finger swipe up. Now repeatedly push the volume up button and see if you can 
start to hear Voiceover.

Re: iPad mini VS iPad 2 sound quality and battery life

2014-11-04 Thread Brian Fischler
Hey Cheryl,

Yes, I meant the iPad Air 2 sorry can’t keep up with all the names. Thanks for 
letting me know about the audio quality on it, going to check them out in the 
store tomorrow, but considering how loud the store is audio is not really 
something you can get a good feel for. If I do get an iPad I am leaning towards 
the iPad Mini 2 unless they do not have it in 64 gigs which I am not sure if 
they do.

thanks for your thoughts.

 Is it safe to assume that by iPad 2 you mean iPad Air 2? If so, it seems 
 to me that the sound is significantly better on the iPad Air 2 than even on 
 the iPad Air 1; it seems much louder to me. It is also very noticeable to me 
 that it is thinner. This is definitely not a brick or even a heavy panel. You 
 can tell I really really like it so I guess that makes me a prejudiced source 
 and not really objective!

I have the first generation Ipad Air and the sound quality is excellent.  
If you use this device to listen to audiobooks or podcasts, I think it has 
a clearer sound than does the second generation Victor Reader Stream 
although as you mention, the Ipad is not very portable.

Re: iPad mini VS iPad 2 sound quality and battery life

2014-11-03 Thread Christopher Hallsworth
You're welcome. I felt a mini briefly Christmas last year and that did 
it for me. Didn't need to hold it or anything but to each their own.

Thanks so much for your thoughts Christopher as they are helpful. Not sure if I 
am going to make the dive as I want to hold them to see if I will like them 
more than the original iPad. I use my iPhone 5S for everything so am thinking I 
might really enjoy the mini and if I do like the size will probably go with 
last years model which I never do with technology but considering to my 
knowledge the only thing new on this year’s mini is touch ID no need to pay the 
extra just for that although I am not sure if they offer last year’s mini in 
64GB which is what I would want so have to see. Thanks again.

I have the iPad Mini 2 which I'm writing this on. Sound quality far exceeds my 
expectations compared to my iPhone which is a 4s. The same goes for battery 
life, however since I use the iPad Mini 2 nearly full time I only get 3-4 days 
compared to when I first had it;: at least two weeks. But that was due to 
limited use and has nothing to do with the iPad Mini 2 itself. But hey, not bad 
compared to a Windows laptop which sucks anyway.  I also have a Macbook Pro, 
late 2011 model and battery life even today is pretty good. Anyway I realize 
I'm waffling on a bit so will get off my soapbox. Good luck in whatever you 
decide to get if you get one at all.

I am going to be checking out the iPad, not sure if it is for me, but had a 
couple of questions that I doubt I will be able to know from being in the 
store. I have only had the first generation iPad and I hated it as I felt it 
was to bulky and since I have no usable vision the screen being the size it was 
did nothing for me. I am going to check out the newest iPads as well as the 
iPad mini from last year as if the mini is for me paying for touch ID does not 
really do much for me. The most important things to me being a 3GS, 4S, and now 
5S user is sound on the iPad. does anyone know how the quality of sound and how 
loud it goes compares on the mini and new iPad 2? I have plenty of bluetooth 
speakers but also want great sound from the iPad and am not sure if there are 
better sound chips in this year’s model, or speakers built in internally.

Also does anyone know if the mini has better battery life than the iPad 2 that 
just came out? My main concern is I never lock the screen on my iPhone so I 
have to charge it multiple times a day. I probably would lock the screen on the 
iPad, so this might not matter, as I recall the battery life on my first gen 
iPad was fantastic.

Thanks,
