    iPad Pro and mp3s on the file system

    I use my iPad for more or less anything not work related. I've even used it to DJ at some fairly large festivals/venue (it was a very useful backup when my laptop died at burning man). Unfortunately, my main music computer is on an older version of MacOS (I can't upgrade as I have some older...

    iPad Any improvements to iMovie on iPad OS, to make it worth buying again?

    I had an iPad Pro 11 for years and loved that thing, especially with the Magic Keyboard case. However, in the last year, I've developed a side gig that requires me to regularly edit videos and photos. I don't mind Lightroom on iPad, but using iMovie has been a nightmare, and I don't love the...

    iPad Mirror video and sound from iphone to ipad

    I have a use case I would guess is relevant for many parents out there. The kids have their ipads in the back of the car mounted in fixtures, watching some streaming service. But the kids are not able to handle the ipad yet. As such every time they want to change what they are watching, an adult...

    All iPads How often do users replace their iPads/iPad Pros ?

    Currently own an 11” iPad Pro (2nd generation) with A12Z chip. This is my second iPad and I can’t remember how long my previous ipad Air lasted, it stopped working after about 4 years I think and actually stopped working after I started an update, which is why I’m hesitant to update as much now...

    iPad Now I know why I bought an 11" iPad Pro!

    When I got the 11" iPad Pro last year I thought a long time before buying, and even after I got it I still was berating myself for being so money-tight and not going for the Big One. But now that iPadOS 16 Beta is out I know why I dit it! Or at least I finally nailed the reason posthumously...

    All iPads Why isn’t there an iPad/iPad Pro Art Thread?

    I’m simply curious why there isn’t an iPad/iPad Pro art thread. If there is, point me to it, please! Just as we have photography and pics of the day shot with different model iPhones, shouldn’t we have a design/art one for iPads? Or am I the only artist that thinks it’s a good idea?

    iPad Pro iPad Pro 10.5 yellow bands across the edges

    Hi everybody, does anyone know if it’s normal for iPads to develop this kind of yellowness across the edges with age? I bought it in 2017-2018 and now it looks like this. I have reduced highlights on a photo a bit so you can see the yellowness better. Any help appreciated!

    Universal Control over USB

    Based on what Apple have stated here I would expect Universal Control to function over USB but it is not? 5 - iPad and Mac must not be sharing a mobile data and internet connection. To use over USB, you must trust your Mac on the iPad. macOS Monterey - New Features - Apple (UK) Is anyone else...

    iPad Pro iPad Pros need more ports

    Since stage manager and the new display updates, these M1 iPad Pros are clearly trying to make these more suitable for Apple’s philosophy of these being potential laptop replacements for the correct target audience. With this I think comes the argument that these iPads need more ports. Yes...

    iPad Pro Shame on you Apple

    Yesterday I went to the Apple store enquiring for a replacement of a smart keyboard folio for my Ipad Pro M1 12.9-inch that I purchased 150 days ago because the tissue started peeling off (see pic). The tech there told me right away that this should not have happened and that they could replace...
