An OS upgrade turned my iPad into..

April 19, 2020 12:20PM
an expensive paperweight.. I bought it to take on trips and download videos to, not only to back them up, but to be able to view them on a bigger screen than the gopro postage stamp sized screen.. But then I got a web cam to watch the dogs which required an OS update on the iPad to work.. So, stupidly I updated the iPad OS.. not only did the new camera NOT work, the newer OS on iPad quite supporting mp4 video files, so I could no longer load video files onto the iPad and the vids that were on it no longer played..

Honestly WTF kind of OS upgrade makes you lose any ability to watch videos on your iPad? $300 down the drain, but at least the OS is current..



Friendship is like peeing your pants.. Everybody can see it, but only you can feel the warmth..

JamesJM103April 19, 2020 01:35PM

JamesJM99April 19, 2020 01:52PM

  Well..

sstrams96April 19, 2020 01:54PM

  Yeah, that was a good sign...

JamesJM99April 19, 2020 01:59PM

sstrams95April 19, 2020 02:04PM

  no, I don't think you can break it up, BUT...

JamesJM103April 19, 2020 02:10PM

sstrams97April 19, 2020 02:58PM

sstrams104April 19, 2020 03:24PM

  So I just read another way..

sstrams96April 19, 2020 03:33PM

  Yeah, that's not gonna work, either..

sstrams92April 19, 2020 03:40PM

  If all you're doing is backing up...

JamesJM170April 19, 2020 03:42PM

sstrams96April 20, 2020 07:26AM

  Yeah, if Time Machine can't even find your photos...

JamesJM103April 20, 2020 07:54AM

sstrams93April 20, 2020 07:55AM

  Back in my windows days...

JamesJM105April 20, 2020 08:03AM

  I don't know what to do...

sstrams97April 20, 2020 08:14AM

  Well, had gotten it down to needing..

sstrams103April 20, 2020 09:29AM

  Same thing just happened again..

sstrams95April 20, 2020 09:46AM

  Just got halfway done backing up the entire library..

sstrams95April 20, 2020 10:37AM

  Backup the library BEFORE fixing it?

JamesJM102April 20, 2020 10:44AM

  Yep that's what it says..

sstrams99April 20, 2020 11:02AM

  Have you tried Disk Repair from recovery mode?

JamesJM99April 20, 2020 11:17AM

  You know... this is starting to sound familiar....

JamesJM99April 20, 2020 11:32AM

  iMac just crashed again..

sstrams103April 20, 2020 11:10AM

sstrams100April 20, 2020 11:53AM

  Now iPhoto is self-repairing..

sstrams101April 20, 2020 11:54AM

  Sorry for being redundant here...

JamesJM103April 20, 2020 12:04PM

sstrams106April 20, 2020 12:13PM

  I should add....

JamesJM108April 20, 2020 12:25PM

  From what I understand..

sstrams93April 20, 2020 12:29PM

  Just got down the 25% left and it crashed..

sstrams98April 20, 2020 12:40PM

  At least loading this way..

sstrams99April 20, 2020 12:54PM

  2013 just killed the computer..

sstrams99April 20, 2020 01:21PM

sstrams98April 20, 2020 01:43PM

  Oh thank God its over...

sstrams98April 20, 2020 02:30PM

  Well, you're welcome, but I didn't help very much..

JamesJM192April 20, 2020 02:44PM

sstrams105April 20, 2020 02:59PM
