    iPad Pro Using Sidecar ON an external monitor

    I have a Macbook Air and I’m wondering if this is possible. If i get an iPad capable of an external display (probably an iPad pro if I wanted 4k60 external display output), would it be possible to use sidecar ON the external display itself (if I would prefer to use the external monitor with my...

    iPad Pro New iPad Pro 11" M2 owner: first-world struggles lol

    Just picked up a like-new open box 11" 2022 iPad Pro over the weekend, at 256GB storage for the price of a 128GB - so a decent deal. I graduated from just over four happy years with an iPad 6, and an original iPad Air for 5 years prior to that. Frankly, I'm struggling for real use cases for my...

    iPad Pro does not allow external monitor to sleep?

    Hi All, I've been experimenting with the new external monitor support + stage manager. It is pretty impressive so far - iPad Pro connected to Apple Studio display really increases screen real estate. I notice that when my iPad dims internal screen, the external screen goes black but the...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro 11" 4th gen GNSS

    Which GNSS systems does iPad Pro 11" 4th gen support? GPS, Glonass, Galileo, Beidou, QZSS? Is it dual frequency GPS? Apple documentation only says GNSS. Generally the GNSS reception seems much better compared to the 1st gen 11" iPad Pro (2018 model).

    Is Apple’s new “Pro = Beefy” design language a mistake?

    After exclusively purchasing MacBook Pros, my next Mac is likely to be a MacBook Air — not because I want an Air, but because the MacBook Pro is too damn bulky. However, this “Pro = Beefy” design language is not relegated to the Apple Silicon MacBook Pros. The issue extends to the M1/M2 iPad...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro - only 1 bluetooth device at the time?

    I can add lots of devices to my list of pairs devices but I can't seem to get them to work at the same time. I use it for work so I want my headphones (non-apple), keyboard and mouse (both official devices) to work at the same time. IT told me that that's correct - the iPad Pro can't use...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation) - performance on iPadOS 16 in 2022

    Hello everyone, I’ve been looking at a 12.9-inch iPad Pro, the 3rd generation model, from 2018. How is the performance on these iPads as of today? The Apple A12X in these is a very capable processor, but they have 4GB of memory. This amount definitely seems low in theory, although the 4th...

    Anyone successfully connecting a USB hub to a USB C digital AV multiport adapter that’s plugged into an iPad Pro? Goal is to connect two USB devices to a single iPad. If so, what brand USB hub recommended?

    Is anyone else having sound issues with BT (specifically with BT cans) under Ventura and iPadOS 16...?

    I posted this in Apple's forum and - so far - tumbleweed. I have two sets of BT cans: Sony WH-1000MX4 and Bose NC700. Now, I can't remember whether this began happening when I first installed Ventura/iPadOS 16, or whether it's been caused by a subsequent update (both devices are running the...

    iPad Pro M2 iPad Pro getting toasty when photo editing

    I know there aren’t a ton of M2 iPad Pro upgraders here, but for those that have bought the new device, just checking to see if this is a shared experience. For most day to day tasks, my 12.9 iPad Pro flies and doesn’t have any issues whatsoever. But when I start doing some editing in Lightroom...

    M2 was recently released and I was considering upgrading my 1 Terabyte 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 cellular model but the resell market was somewhat disappointing for commanding a decent price.

    All iPads Anyone experienced this using iPad and external hard drives?

    Hey everyone 👋 Yesterday, I was away from my iMac and decided edit my upcoming YouTube video on the go. First time I’ve attached an external hard drive to the iPad Pro (2020) to work with LumaFusion. I usually video edit exclusively on the iMac. Everything worked perfectly during the day and...

    I bought an Ipad Pro M1 12.9 last week (brand new) and it has happened three times that the display suddenly started to flicker very strongly (it was always on Safari when this happened). The text on screen would simultaneaously move up and down very fast (I managed to record it one time on...

    All iPads What is the end game for iPad and iPad Pro?

    With the new iPads coming out, I think the improvements on the whole in comparison to previous models such as the M1 are minimal. More processing power for sure but is that sort of power needed in an Ipad? Where do Apple go from here when M3 and M4 chips are released year on year when an M1 iPad...
