"Cheap shot. Go buy another brand. Customers like you are never missed."
That's not really nice. People choose Apple for the line of products and quality. Quality is not only concerning the manufacture or design, it involves customer care and attention to satisfaction. Been using Apple stuff for ages, and i was happy to pay the extra cash to get that quality over other brands.
This thread has reached 163359 Views. I guess that's a sensible number for a problem the company is not willing to consider.
So don't you like customers with an actual working brain?Cheers

Oct 31, 2014 3:53 PMby Alessio Marcheggiani,Ah got it.
You're a colleague of Star Traveler. Good that more people form Apple is joining the conversation.Still i fail to see any technical or logical insight in this: ""Cheap shot. Go buy another brand. Customers like you are never missed."
Now, let's be serious. Why don't you escalate the problem to someone which is actually in the position to provide a real answer?
Maybe i'm completely wrong, and the answer Apple is providing with his "no comment" stance is exactly this:-There's no turning back to previous OS, if you migrate to IOS 8.0 onwards your tablet will be stuck to that version. Even if you are not satisfied with the outcomes. Get over it.
In the meantime i would not suggest to other users to upgrade to IOS 8.1 in any other way except what JSOT has done so far.
If those results can be replicated it would pay to put those instruction in evidence for the whole community. I will try to do the same ASAP, as my tablet is not more useful than the wooden cutting board i got in the kitchen.Cheers

Oct 31, 2014 4:03 PMby Skooty Alan,No, I am not a troll. The username is the registration of my favourite car. I have an iPad 2 and I am struggling to make it perform again like many others on this forum. But I am doing this as best I can without what is becoming vitriolic abuse from a biased small group. Perhaps you should look at your posts and remove some of the emotion and bias - in line with the forum conditions.
I find it ironic that those casting abuse feel they can lecture others on how to behave.

They are not MY customers. You should be talking to Apple here https://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Oct 31, 2014 4:09 PMby Skooty Alan,Oh, and I didn't realise my virginmoney link was copied onto this forum.
But for your information, last year I sailed around the UK fundraising for the RNLI. That's the Royal National Lifeboat Institution - it's a charity that protects life at sea. A cause very important in an island nation.
But you are mistaken, I don't want you to follow the link. Anyone else that wants to follow the blog is more than welcome

Oct 31, 2014 4:03 PMby lesliefromstockton-on-tees,TTo use Apple products and technologies more effectively requires that they have to work in the first place, which at the moment, they clearly do not.
TThis thread is on the whole generated by Apple's customers with technical questions and yours is not, nor is it constructive or polite. You should apologise to Alessio.
in the meantime, my technical question still remains, how do you make an iPad mini work as it should whilst running 8.1 even after a clean restore and setup from new. Also, how do you cure the double letter every time the keyboard appears?

I was referring to Unhappy User of Mac. But you knew that.
Anyhow stop breaking the TOU and stop advertising for donations.
If you cannot fix your issues take your iPad2 to an Apple Store or Apple Professional for servicing.
Cheers

Try opening a new thread. There was no mini version of the iPad2 so either stay on topic or open a post relevant to YOUR issues.
Thanks

Oct 31, 2014 4:21 PMby Skooty Alan,I am not advertising for donations. But your comments were clearly directed at me.
But is this forum is only intended for technical issues that Apple are prepared to accept? I am disappointed that I find the moderation rather one sided with valid concerns and pleas for help being treated with derision. Not what I expected from Apple or the Apple community.
Very disappointing

Yes you are. And the forum Moderators continually remove it, yet you keep trying to put up the links for personal donations.
I don't think there needs to be any other comment on your reason for being here.
