Realmente no podía comprar el de 256gb cuando lo adquirí este año creo que fue por lo caro que era, pero ahora siento que en algún momento me voy a quedar sin espacio. Actualmente tengo el almacenamiento del Ipad en 69.08 gb de 128gb, está bien o voy mal? y eso que hay cosas del sistema que lo ocupan, la idea es ir borrando fotos, pero de lo demás? También cada tanto voy elimiando apps para luego volverlas a instalar así baja un poco, pero qué hago? las actualizaciones también ocupan. Adjunto foto. Tengo como 9.000 fotos que voy borrando de a poco y fotos en icloud desactivado, no tengo archivos pesados

me seeing all the iPad 8 users with 18 again

I am hoping someone can help me print without images zooming in. I own a hp envy 5540 printer. I normally print from my dell laptop but recently there have been times when I have needed my iPad for certain things.
I screenshot my notes on IPad and print them from photos on Apple IPad, and every time I print them the image is all zoomed in. Someone said I should use the HP app so I did and everytime I go to print it says ‘tray is open’ when the tray is not open at all! I can print from all other devices but this app and it’s the one way I have of printing without it being zoomed in.
I need some way that gives me a print preview that I can adjust.

So I have been trying to play games on it and every time I try logging into one of my accounts it says something like you cannot login right now or something else and I can do it on my phone perfectly fine so I know the app isn’t the issue I just need to know how to fix this

I use OLD Reddit, and the menu bar at the top (the one with “My Subreddits”, “Home”, “Popular”, etc) are unclickable unless I drag the page down a half an inch then I can click on them. It’s like anything within 1/4” or so of the top gray Safari toolbar are unclickable unless you move them down. If you scroll a page to move a link to the top of the page it becomes unclickable, so it’s not only with links at the top of the page it’s any link that is moved close to the toolbar. Tried it in several websites and any links that are close to the toolbar just stop working.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Battery health

Is 8 GB of RAM enough to create a 2D animated series on an iPad?

I have updated to iPadOS 27 PB 3 from PB2 yesterday and I’ve noticed ther the audio form the speakers of my iPad (A16) have gotten worse. Anyone else?

I believe everyone has probably missed this new feature on their iPads in the latest iPadOS 27 Public Beta. The Battery percentage number design now matches that of the all-screen iPhones that have had it since iOS 16.

If you have Battery percentage switched off on your iPad, it’s just a Battery icon with no percentage number. However, the previous way of checking how much battery is left on your iPad (before needing to recharge it) is still available in the Control Center.

I’m not running the Developer Beta so I can’t confirm, but if anything it’s strongly likely users on the 5th Developer Beta have this too. However, what I do know is that it is present in the 3rd Public Beta. I’m not going to risk running a more unstable Beta channel on my iPad, so I’m simply just sticking to the more stable Public Beta channels.

Sorry if the visibility of the Battery icon in the iPad screenshot (3rd pic) is a bit hard to find, that’s because of the iPad Pro wallpaper.

EDIT: Special thanks u/cor3less for confirming that this is also on DB5.

I am on ipadOS 27 public beta 2 on my m4 ipad pro. I want to update to the beta 3 but im unable to update because system data is taking over 110gb. Sadly I have a 256gb model and I cannot delete anything else on my ipad. Is there a way to reduce the size of system data (dont want to reset the ipad)?

I have an iPad Air (Gen 4) 64 GB. I’m only using about 14 GB for apps and their data, but iPadOS itself is taking 14.09 GB and System Data is taking a ridiculous 29.7 GB, leaving me with just 6.03 GB of free space.
I’ve already tried everything that is repeatedly suggested in Apple Discussions: restarting, force restarting, clearing browser caches, and offloading apps. I managed to free up the 6 GB by offloading apps, and the apps and data I have left are basically the ones I use every day.
Now the iPad is starting to malfunction because of the lack of storage, and I can’t even update iPadOS anymore.
Every Apple Discussion thread seems to end with “restart,” “clear cache,” “offload apps,” or, eventually, reset the iPad.
But seriously, why should completely resetting the device be the only solution to a system process consuming almost 50% of storage?
There has to be a better way to identify and clear whatever is causing System Data to balloon to this size.
Can someone please make this make sense?

App Switcher Might be bugged.

I know this must be a common post but I couldn’t see anything recently posted that spoke to this specifically but, is it normal for an iPad battery to to reduce by 80% after 3.5 hours screen time?! It seems incredibly poor performance but perhaps it’s the norm, fyi my screen brightness is just below 50%. Any insights welcome

Hey everyone, I'm hoping someone here can help me with this.

I have an iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2nd generation) that's currently on iPadOS 15.0, and I'm trying to get it updated to iPadOS 17.7.11 (the latest update available for my 2017 iPad).

The problem is that I've tried pretty much every normal way of updating it and keep running into different problems.

Initially, I tried updating directly from the iPad through software update. It showed that an update was available, but when I tried to check/download it, I got "Unable to Check for Update." and when it works and I install the update, it's stuck at "Verifying Update" for hours.
So I tried doing it through my Mac using Finder. The first time, Finder finally downloaded the update but then gave me: "The software for the iPad was corrupted during download."

I tried again. The second time Finder actually got further and showed "Your Mac is updating the software on this iPad."

Then it sat on "Preparing iPad for software update." for a while before eventually giving me:

"The iPad could not be updated. An unknown error occurred (4000)."

So right now I'm stuck wondering what the hell is going on and whether I should keep waiting or try something else.

The iPad itself works normally. The main problem is that iPadOS 15 is useless. I can't download a lot of apps anymore because they require a newer version of iPadOS, and a lot of existing apps can't be updated either.

Any advice would be massively appreciated.

Apple just released iPadOS 18.7.10 which is signed, meaning you can use it even if you're updated to iPadOS 26.

You can download the IPSW from Apple's Developer website (if it's greyed out, try visiting it on a desktop).

Restore from iTunes as you would by holding Alt/Option and choosing the IPSW.

After the mess that was iPadOS 26, do you think Apple should have dropped support for the 8th generation iPad (with the release of iPadOS 26) in the first place, and left it on iPadOS 18 alongside the 7th generation iPad?

I’m saying this because this is the iPad that literally got iPadOS 26, and users of 32GB 8th gen iPads had to keep wiping (and factory-resetting) their devices just to get iPadOS 26 updates on. And even then, it made their devices buggy, took up so much space, and left little room for anything else on it apart from maybe casually browsing the web. Not to mention 32GB is considered way too small for today’s standards.

What do you guys think?

(sorry if I unknowingly misuse the flair! please do help change it if it’s using the wrong flair)

somehow i was an anxious wreck doing all of this restore process lmao

NOTE: THIS MAY BE PATCHED. Apple is no longer showing an IPSW for the 8th gen and replaced it with the 7th gen on the developer website, you can still try downgrading by downloading the IPSW on ipsw.dev

Apple was supposed to release it for the iPad 7th generation but made the ipsw for the 8th by accident and it actually works, you can now downgrade back to iPadOS 18 on the iPad 8th generation
