Apologies if this has already been asked before, but how do people get on using it as a shared device? Reason I ask is, me and the mrs share the iPad as a sofa browser/games machine but we both have our own iPhones and user accounts on the mac.

Currently the iPad is syncd with my account so I can sync my apps etc if I wish, but what happens if she wanted to install some of her games on the iPad that are obviously associated to her account - any suggestions?

Log yourself out of the itunes account on the device, log her in, on the ipad, download the apps (will say you have bought this already so its a free download) sign her out, sign you back in, and your account can now play that game

Win.

Thanks for the responses

I'll try this suggestion tomorrow and report back!

Thanks Embed, worked a treat

Anyone seen the 'Be-ez LA robe Allure' sleeve for iPad2 - Looks pretty decent for a sleeve and a good price too.

Is it worth upgrading the firmware from 4.3 to 4.3.1, anyone know what the changes are?

Robbo · 8 Apr 2011 at 23:10

4.3.1 -

Bug Fix Release

Fixed graphics glitches on 4th Gen iPod Touch

Baseband updates for the 3GS and iPad (original)

Fixed memory hang that results in memory corruption when reading large files from USIM filesystem

Fixed problem with NTLM authentication in apps and on websites

Fixed issue with the Springboard and 3rd party apps not recognizing the gyroscope on the iPad 2

Resolves bugs related to activating and connecting to some cellular networks

Fixes image flicker when using Apple Digital AV Adapter with some TVs

Resolves an issue authenticating with some enterprise web services

Changes the behaviour of the battery percentage

It shouldn't cause you any problems, just help to fix any that 4.3 itself caused.

On these forums in the reply box, there's no scroll box. Is there anyway to scroll down in the message box. It's very annoying having to press the down arrow half a million times to extend the reply box.

Cavallino · 9 Apr 2011 at 08:06

Use two fingers to scroll up and down in the reply box AH2.

Glaucus · 9 Apr 2011 at 08:13

Sorry need a bit more help two fingers zoom?

Cavallino · 9 Apr 2011 at 09:26

You know how you use 1 finger to scroll up and down, instead of 1 finger, use two fingers as such:

The pic is a trackpad one, but its the same princpal.

(Sorry didnt have time to upload as proper picture to imageshack so linked instead).

Thank you that makes life so much easier, would have never figured that out.

Cavallino · 9 Apr 2011 at 10:09

No problem mate, me and a few friends take it in turns to download apps then we share them

This just arrived today for when I'm on my travels:

It's a Be-ez LA Robe Allure sleeve. Memory foam outer with a soft fleece inner, also inner protection from the zipper. Fits nicely with and without the Smart Cover. Very pleased for £21.99

That is just perfect just what I need :d

Excellent, glad I could help. Mine is the black version, also comes in multiple colour stripes and red.

For those of you that want a back protector for the ipad 2, I found a nice leather look skin that covers most of the back.

The deep black version looks really nice and should go well with the black smart cover.
