    What's kind of a hassle on the iPad but relatively simple to do on a cheap Chromebook?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 07:45 AM PST

    In other words, is there something that is just such a hassle to do on the iPad that you'd be better off, for some tasks, with a cheap Chromebook?

    PaperLike 2 vs PaperLike 1

    Posted: 06 Dec 2019 11:56 PM PST

    Just wondering what other people's opinions are.

    I was using the first PaperLike for the last few months, and just installed the PaperLike 2 today.

    The screen looks better, smoother, less distortion, but as for the feel of the pencil... I think it's actually worse?

    Somehow it feels more rubbery/gummy/sticky, whereas the 1 felt more scratchy/rough/papery.

    Am I totally tripping? What do you guys think?

    Apple ID scam - got this email from some random "noreply" account, all the hyperlinks in the mail are fake and my mail isn't even in the "to" line. Just thought I'd share, maybe it'll save somebody trouble

    Second-hand scam?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 12:09 PM PST

    I'm buying an iPad 32GB (6th Gen) from a guy online second-hand. The deal seems a little too good to be true. He's asking $196.14 USD ($260 CAD, I live in Canada!) Is this a good deal? Should I go for it? Is there anything I can check to make sure it's not a reported stolen device, etc?

    [my iPad]Rate my setup (iPad Pro 12.9 2018 64gb), is there any other official high quality wallpaper that is better than my lock screen one?

    iPad Pro 10.5" seems to be ONLY iPad Pro not supporting Logitech Crayon

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 12:13 PM PST

    Hello. See above. It is totally strange, high-end iPad bought last year, supports terrible first Pencil and not much better 2nd Pencil but I was sure I could default to Crayon but NOT??

    Does anyone have a Logitech Crayon working with any iPad Pro 10.5"?

    There seems to be a subset of people who do have the Crayon working but Apple says no (admits weird) and not listed supported on Logitech site.

    Are there generations of Crayon? Perhaps an earlier Crayon might work?

    TIA and happy holidays!

    Adobe subscription: can you use PS on iPad AND PC with one subscription?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 01:14 PM PST

    I would like to use Photoshop on PC. I've got the trial subscription running on the iPad and now i'm asking myself, can i use the windows based Photoshop CC when i have a subscription running on the iPad? Because if i start a subscription on windows, i can get PS on the iPad too (atleast until january 31 2020). The price for both subscriptions seem to be the same. Have you guys any experience with it?

    Bring back the iBook!

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 12:35 PM PST

    Hi guys and gals (and Apple in the very very VERY remote chance you're reading this),

    My favorite accessory for an iPad EVER isn't something Apple makes, it's the Zagg Slim Book for my old iPad Air 2. It's a bluetooth keyboard that attaches to an iPad case magnetically, creating something resembling a very small laptop when I'm typing, but when I'm not, I can just easily detach the iPad and I'm back to doing iPad-y things.

    Now that every single non-mini iPad sold by Apple has the smart connector for keyboard attachments, it has me thinking that Apple has recognized the potential of these devices as productivity machines (even including limited Mouse support!).

    If that's the case, as we enter 2020 and the tenth year of the iPad line, I would love to see a hybrid device that gives me the joy of typing on a laptop, but the flexibility and size of the iPad. Once upon a time, Apple sold "mini MacBooks", the 11 inch MacBook Air, then the 12 inch MacBook, but now those devices have been sacrificed at the altar of the iPad (and good riddance, since they were slow out the gate and have aged extremely poorly), but in order for the iPad to live up to the potential of those devices, Apple needs to revamp their keyboard accessory and go full mouse mode. They need an iBook.

    Some of you may be too young to remember this, but once upon a time Apple had an iBook - a mobility first, productivity machine for people who didn't want or couldn't afford Powerbooks. These weren't devices you were ever going to code or work with giant Excel sheets on, but they were good for many of the things people use iPads for today: email, internet, word processing, note taking, and more.

    Two years after the first iPad released, Microsoft updated to Windows 8, a touch-first interface for Windows that, while not perfect, brought forth a plethora of hybrid devices, that flipped, detached, had screens on both sides of the display (who remembers the Asus Tai-chi?). Microsoft brought forth a vision of the future. The future, however, flopped, and now laptops will MAYBE flip over, but that's it. The issue with detachables was, at the time, that all of the hardware had to be crammed into the back of the display and required bulky and/or expensive cooling solution (think the Surface Book). The iPad on the other hand, does not suffer from these issues - it being ARM based, and Apple's SOC being faster and cooler than quite a few x86 processors Intel and AMD make. Microsoft's vision of the future failed because when it came out, the hardware simply wasn't there to support it, and the software wasn't built for the hardware that could potentially do it (RIP Windows RT).

    So where does that leave us? Take a look at what Brydge is working on for 2020 - an all aluminum keyboard, with a solid keyboard and a trackpad. All of that is great! Here's what isn't - the clamps that secure the iPad in place need to cover an increasingly small bezel, it lacks the elegance of a magnetic solution, and at the end of the day, it's still bluetooth. It may be a nicer, more complete product, but at the end of the day it is no different than any other bluetooth keyboard on the market, but at double the price, especially compared to my still beloved Slim Book case.

    What can Apple do here? Well let's compare to the product category (bluetooth keyboards for iPad) to another product category: battery cases for iPhones. These cases have existed for a long time, and some of them are even very good (Mophie springs to mind), but that doesn't come close to the first party accessory that Apple sells - one that integrates into the software, charges with the same lightning cable, and now does some voodoo wizardry to add a camera button. The integration makes the product better. So what does that mean here - well let's combine the two categories: Apple's Smart Keyboard uses the connector to verify whether a keyboard is connected or not, and the keyboard draws power from the iPad, while Apple's Battery Case connects to the iPhone, charging it and giving a detailed look (through software). Combining the two and looking to other keyboards/detachables on the market, you would get something that looks remarkably like Brydge's solution but that connects to the iPad via the smart connector and that can charge the iPad through it, combining the batteries in both the keyboard and the iPad to make a device that can last up to 24 hours on a charge.

    What about the Smart Keyboard? Well - the Smart Keyboard would still exist for customers that don't want a premium laptop-style typing experience, but just need something that can fold away when not in use.

    The question is, of course, the hinge - Brydge (and Libra) solve this problem with clips that hook onto the corner of the iPad, Zagg solved it with a special case with magnets at the bottom that could snap onto the keyboard, but Apple could solve this with a hardware redesign - especially because it ALREADY uses magnets in the iPad for the Smart Cover.

    A hypothetical 2020 iBook would be aesthetically very similar to the 2019 iPad Pro (no home button, small bezels, squared off edges), BUT the smart connector would return to the bottom where it would be flanked by magnets (these make the Smart Cover for this product work when not on the keyboard). The Keyboard would be a near hybrid of the Brydge/Zagg keyboards and the Surface Book keyboard - connecting to the iPad via the smart connector, and holding onto the device using the magnets.

    Selling Paperlike 2 for iPad Pro 11”

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 12:10 PM PST

    Still waiting on it to come in, but I got an Arxon one for free off Amazon, so I'll be utilizing that one instead. Have sold on Reddit before, albeit a different type of item (vouch thread here).

    CONUS only, looking for $34 shipped with tracking for both, $18 separately.

    Is it possible to open Password-Protected PDF-Files with Notability?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 09:11 AM PST

    I just bought an iPad for University and most of the professors are using Passwords on their Scripts.

    Is it possible to open an annotate them with Notability? It seems that i just threw my money down the drain, because with this, the app is pretty useless to me...

    Why is the ipad pro so expensive in Romania?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 06:45 AM PST

    The 11 inch 64gb wifi ipad Pro is around $1000.. While the prices I see people mention on this sub are usually around 750-760. That's a pretty big difference especially for a country like Romania with low incomes (from 4300 RON to 3300 RON).

    Searching for help

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 04:24 AM PST

    Hello, My name is Jeff and I'm searching for advice on a project. Heres the gist of the story;

    For years we have been typing our meetings on a laptop so a deaf person can read the meetings. It was not very efficient but it was better than nothing. Recently I discovered a self typing program, Otter Meeting Notes. It works great but we realized she really didn't need to drag around the cumbersome laptop anymore. Our meetings are also broadcast over an FM frequency for those hard of hearing. We thought if we got an ipad, we could feed the fm frequency from our meetings into the ipad and the Otter program would type what it heard. Just like a microphone can feed into an ipad, we were thinking an fm transmitter could feed in for the Otter program to type.

    Unfortunately, I've tried numerous audio cables and splitters but with very little success. I did get it to type a few sentences from a radio commercial for a couple minutes but than for some reason it just stopped typing. Any advice/ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Help with screen mirroring

    Posted: 06 Dec 2019 07:14 PM PST

    I have an old iPad Pro that basically stays connected to the tv via apple's lightning to hdmi adaptor. I've never had a problem mirroring the screen but for the past 2 days when the screen goes black and enters screen mirroring mode nothing happens. I can still mirror my screen to the tv it's just when the iPad screen goes black and the screen mirror logo appears it doesn't work. I hope I've explained what's happening as it's a bit confusing. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks
