Just sold my broken screen (but functional) iPad on eBay. I'm pretty sure I disabled iCloud correctly, but is there another way to do so? I've already wiped it.

Ultimate Mango posted:If you wiped it, as in full factory reset, find my iPad would be disabled and iCloud nuked in the process. You can go into iCloud and remove your old device from the list of devices if it makes you feel better. Thanks, bought myself some more time as something was fishy about the address of the buyer so I googled it and it turns out it is the infamous 600 Markley Port Reading, NJ. Reply-all even did an episode on it (https://www.gimletmedia.com/reply-all/99-black-hole-new-jersey). Cancelled and relisted.

I'm close to being in the market for a new portable and was previously looking at a higher-end Thinkpad Yoga or something similar. I got my hands on a 12.9" and am seriously considering going with one of those instead. One of the things that I'm very curious about is keyboards. I LOVE working on Thinkpad with its keyboard. Is the best solution for the Pro the Smart keyboard or is there some other one that is highly recommended for those who do a lot of typing and even some light programming? I wasn't sure if the current state of affairs was that go Smart Keyboard or go home or not. Cost isn't the principal driver here, but a productive and effective keyboard. I am still vetting out all of my other use cases for laptop vs. iPad but wanted to narrow the question on the keyboard for now. Thanks!

Oh great! I appreciate having goon endorsements. I'll check them both out! I especially like the place to put the pen, which I assume it can still charge through the case provided I put it in properly. That's one thing I didn't like when playing with the other case is that the pen kept getting loose and I thought it'd be awkward to keep there in transit.

Anyone try the mouse support yet? I only have the kind you use a USB dongle for so can't at this point, but hoping to find out if it's as much as a gamechanger that I'm hoping it to be. Particularly in remoting into my work Windows machine to actually be productive.

A lot more dropped inputs while playing a game, and the Reminders badge is showing the total number of reminders I have for today, not just overdue ones. Just hit update on my Air 2, was hoping it was more stable than PB1 as that seemed to be quite a mess.

Brydge Pro is on sale for $99 from $169, even on Amazon. I ordered it ahead of my work 12.9” coming my way. One thing that I liked that the Logitech Slim has is the flap that covers and secures the pen. For those of you that have the Brydge, what solution do you have to better secure the pen aside from just putting it in your pocket as you’re on the move between meetings and such? I can easily see myself bumping it and it going flying, potentially without my knowledge.

I just got the 12.9” moving up from an Air 2 and it is incredible, that’s all I can say. Still trying to work in the Pencil into my usecase, but work was paying so I have it.

I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for, but hoping to describe it and see if anyone know what kind of app may be out there to help. I'm looking for an app that can very nimbly and quickly handle PDFs and/or images. I want to use my 12.9" pro as more of a hub for my guitar practicing/playing. I'm still very early in my journey and am taking my lessons. I get a lot of sheet music / notes from my instructor that I use pretty much religiously, but would be nice to shuffle them around (like I do in reality) in a linear fashion without much fuss. I was initially thinking of OneNote, but the interface is a bit clunky and if I wanted to 'rearrange' the order of my pages, it's a PITA. So I'm picturing an app that is very loose with the structure of the pages and can reorder them in almost an infinite flow on the X axis, but also serve to organize them as they get more numerous. Perhaps into binders? Sorry if that sounds odd, but trying to figure out how I want to organize my materials but also not be too restrictive and put a barrier between myself and the music.

Jazz Marimba posted:ForScore. It’s industry-standard. You can easily annotate (get the Apple Pencil!), rearranging pages is dead simple, and it has a built-in metronome, tuner, and tons of other features. Ooh will check it out. I have a pencil already so got that covered. It'll import PDF? In general, I'd love to hear how you use your iPad for music. My current system is a Manila folder I carry around in my case between lessons and home. I throw an AirPod in for my metronome (still working out rhythm) and follow the plan. Thanks!

Speaking of recently uses apps, i accidentally clicked the minus on one recently and now it never shows up anymore. I can’t find any option to re-allow it either, googling only brings up how to remove the recently used apps part of the dock. I didn’t realize how much i used that until it was gone for one app.

Pretty narrow question, but for anyone who has a 2018 Pro 12.9" weigh in on if the Coverbuddy (link below) will work with a Brydge Keyboard? It APPEARS that it will because the side of the cover doesn't extend all the way down and with how thin it is it still may fit into the bracket regardless but would love some confirmation. Thanks! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P7LGYMW/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_McJAEbZAPHR95

Hoping whatever kickass new smart folios they come up with backwards compatible to the 2018

Now that they're scissor keys it may be the ultimate keyboard everyone has been searching for. With the new hover design it looks like they were able to get more surface area. Clever design. ANY word on backwards compatibility?

priznat posted:I got the keyboard for my 10.5” Air 3 and I miss the 3rd party one I had before. No backlight really sucks. I’d wait for a good Logitech option imo. I have a Brydge right now and while I really enjoy typing on it, that's about it. I do not enjoy it as an all-around case. So I am constantly swapping it out of that case and into a folio (Amazon, not apple) without a keyboard. My boss has the Logitech and while it does a better job of mixing those two uses together, it is just too damned bulky for not doing it well enough. That's why I'm thinking about the new keyboard with trackpad. The sleakness/weight of the new solution is very appealing and with it seeming like they brought the typing experience up to snuff it may be the best solution overall. Still wish there was an elegant solution to have a Pencil holder at the top though. The magnet is janky as hell when you're shuffling between meetings.

If you can get a 2018 on a good price, do it. It's an incredible machine. The only thing that has me lusting today is the new Magic Keyboard. If I were buying today and money was an consideration I probably would do the 2018. It's so powerful as is that unless you have some insane needs, you won't notice the extra power. The other features are neat but not game changing, IMO. But that keyboard though.... get the 2018 refurb and use the savings to get that.

Just loaded 13.4 and my mouse set up under accessibility just worked right away. I disabled the accessibility feature and no problems. Curious though, not sure where the settings for hot keys went as I’ve lost the mapping for dock/expose/home screen for my other buttons. Has anyone found those?

# ¿ Mar 24, 2020 20:09 |

This is clearly an after-thought for mice over trackpads, which probably makes sense. You can't 'drag and pull' like you can in accessibility mode. For instance, since my mouse doesn't have a horizontal scroll I can't move through the expose screen. That magic trackpad looks like the best external solution in absence of the magic keyboard.

"I can't think of a reason why someone would want a camera in an iPad Pro" is not the same thing as "There is no need for cameras on the iPad Pro." I love turning on my backward facing camera during Teams meetings to show my employees my dog doing something silly on the grass. Worth it.
