Apple iPad Air 1st Gen for Rapsodo?

Zeebedy · 9 Apr 2023 at 14:19

Hey guys,

I will be setting up my golf simulator next week once my screen arrives..and I was going to use my M1 12.9" Pro iPad..but now im thinking of getting a iPad solely for the simulator.

So my question is, will a 1st gen Air be "snappy" enough to run that program? Its for a Rapsodo MLM2 Pro.

The only other concern I have is battery life, but I can get a power brick to hook up while using if need be.

for the sake of £55, I bought one and if it works then great, if not, meh.

will update once it’s tried.

change of plan, ordered a gen 6 iPad, should run ok, will again, update when tested. Great price so was forced to buy!

Hey guys,

just got the new(ish) iPad today, just setting things up, but a quick question..

it has AppleCare+ until later this year..can I use that if needed or is it an original owner thing?

Just looking into it, don’t believe it’s transferable, on well, no biggie.

surprised no one here was fresh on this! :rolleyes:

You don’t need to ‘transfer’ AppleCare. If a device has it, it has it. If the device ownership changes, AppleCare stays with the device.

This is correct

It’s for the device, not the user

That’s awesome, it’s only 3 months left but a year warranty from the company anyway.

for its use purpose, it is a very solid little machine.

What would happen if someone started the apple care via subscription and cancelled it. Can you continue that on, on a different Apple ID?
