iPad 2 Won't Turn On
My mother got an iPad 2 in early 2013 and used it until she got an iPad Air 2 in 2016. Around that time, she accidentally dropped the iPad 2 with a cheap case in front of our door step and it cracked the screen, but it still worked fine. After several months to a year, it just stopped turning... -

Remote access for Ipad 2?
Hi there I bought an Ipad 2 for my mum a while back. She's not the most technologically literate by far and it can be difficult to explain to her how to use it especially since she lives in another county (she knows the bare basics).

iPad Is a 2nd Generation Ipad (WiFi only) worth keeping?
Hello, I was in the process of cleaning out my closets and found my old 2nd Generation 16gb Ipad. I didn't find the charger. Do guys think it would be worth it to get a charger? Or you think it's too old to upgrade, in order to be able to use with current OS and current programs? Thank you- Pattycakes81

An update for an app on my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S (both running 9.3.5) continues to show, even though it is incompatible with both devices. Is this normal? I don't think I've encountered it before, and I'm pretty sure I have some apps that have ceased supporting those devices. I thought that by...
