Thread: The iPad2 tips and tricks thread

    I don't know how common this is, but after I was getting annoyed with not being able to buy anything I wanted in the AppStore, a friend suggested I switch to Kenya.

    I moved my account across, and my SA Credit Card still works, now I have access to all the apps I want.

    Don't know if this is mentioned anywhere else, or something similar, but thought I'd mention it.

    So CC won't work with the US store ...? I'm also on the Kenya store at the moment but buying vouchers sounds like a pain....

    I went with a US account from the start. If you buy a big enough voucher each time it's not really much of a pain

    Personally flipping between different stores sounds like more of a pain to me. Sign up for a US account first time and be done with it.

    How do you change your iPad from SA account to USA account? Do you lose all your bought apps?

    Some users, like Bevonk, worry about FBI wiretapping, possible extradition to the US for computer crimes, the CIA zip lining into your house and kidnapping you or other semi or para-military risks and political issues. The rest of us just buy vouchers, then apps and move on. :-)

    Ok.

    I am fed up with iOS 6.x - it still is broken. Fubar. Kaputt.

    Is there any way I can upgrade from 6.x to 5.x, even if it means that I'll lose all my apps and stuff? Which I won't mind, can always download and reinstall.

    Note that I call that an upgrade as it will be an upgrade from a broken OS to a working OS.

    Did you save your SHSH blobs? If you didn't then no, you cant downgrade to 5.

    It sounds like a pain but it also makes budgeting very easy.

    It's also fantastic spending money...which you already spent ages ago. I buy $100 at a time and it's great when I get to <$50 and I don't really have to cry over it because I actually paid for it like 3 months ago.

    What is the problem you are having?

    iOS6 has been bulletproof for me and my battery (on the iPhone) is astounding in comparison.
