    Multiple gmail om iPad

    you could try adding the second gmail account in as an exchange account. I believe you use m.google.com as the server when asked. This also enables push email for a gmail account, so not a bad thing to do anyways. Cheers

    Help installing uodated apps

    you could try delete the app then re-download. Could also try holding down sleep wake + home until the iPad reboots (a "hard" reset), which has 'caused stalled app downloads to restart for me before.

    Connect and use an external usb device ?

    You can connect a camera using the USB camera connection kit. I believe you can use it to connect a variety of other devices (a quick google will return a list no doubt). Won't be able to use anything that needs a high power USB port though, but I have for example successfully used an external...

    best gps app for wifi only model that always has access to the internet?

    I like TomTom myself. It has all the maps locally, but one of the features I use a lot is the local google search, which does require an internet connection. I'm sure everyone has their own favourite though, so your mileage may vary.

    Not yet an iPad owner, but have question re: "taking notes". (Thx!)

    There seem to be a few in the store, but they all get pretty bad reviews, with one at least appearing to be a fake app from the reviews. (How that got past Apple I don't know) There are other fantastic note taking apps though, One I just downloaded ($1.99, not free) is call Tapose. It lets you...

    New ipad issues gone!!!

    best thing is to let your iPad charge overnight I think, as it does take a while to get "fully" charged. They leave a margin of error at 100% so the battery doesn't catch fire or swell or do any of the things that batteries do if they're charged too quickly, so leaving it charging for a while...

    iPad for 76 year old Mom

    A friend here in my office did exactly that with her 80 something mother who'd never used a PC before. She can send an receive email, look at photos and download apps. She still needed help, but it went smoother than I thought it would (I set it up for her).

    Don't know the answer to your issue, however look into the Downcast app, which is an alternate way of downloading and listening to podcasts. Great little app.

    Read and help

    it will ask after 15 minutes between purchases. Whilst you can set it to ALWAYS ask for a password via the restrictions settings (check to see you don't have it on), I'm not aware of there being a setting to never ask for your password, as it would be a bit of a security risk for you should...

    Issues using HDMI connector

    1) I don't think you can. The iPad screen is mirrored on the HDMI device, although some apps show different views to the HDMI device. For example, keynote will show the presenter one thing on the iPad and the actual presentation via the HDMI device. 2) The problem you're encountering is the TV...

    Opening an iTunes podcast link on an iPad

    Consider downloading "Downcast" on your iPad, a fantastic app for managing, finding and listening to podcasts. (I'm not affiliated with them in any way, just like the app) Cheers Dale intro2ipad.com - "Video tutorials for iPad: a beginners guide" - iPad app
