NOPE! no solutions, just a lot of pissed off apple geeks going back on their word.

I try to update one of the Ipads, takes 30 minutes to do so. Only to find out that it didn't fix the problem, AND they changed my screen lock button to a mute button! WHY!!!!!! WHY THE F#($ WOULD YOU DO THAT! WHY! WHY YOU PIECE OF SH@*!!!!!!!!!!!!

Officially never going to buy an apple product. At least for another ten years.

This is such a stupid problem to have.

I own a MacBook and an iPod touch but thankfully, I'm not an Apple fanboy.

In fact I'm probably going back to Dell for my next computer.

Hell, if anything, I'm turning into a Motorola fanboy.

I love my ipad. Update only takes a few seconds (I have 30gb of music and a few books), and your email sounds like a security/permissions problem with your email server. Are you trying to connect to an exchange server?

I suspect a bad batch of iPads ...or user error...:bangdesk:
