What happens if I don't register my iPad?

Post by tatzaana »

What happens if I don't register my iPad? Will the screen for me to plug it into my iTunes continue to popup? For some reason it's not letting me access the iTunes Store from iTunes on my computer, and so I'm unable to register my iPad. I'm figuring I could just leave my iPad unregistered, but if I don't register it will I be unable to use it because of that "plug into iTunes" prompt it shows whenever I turn it on?

I would assume that if you don't register, Steve Jobs appears and kicks you in the shin. :)

Just playing, no clue. :D

I have no idea. I haven't registered mine, and I use it every day.

I actually got to use one today, its a breeze to setup google apps on it(there is this special place you go, "m.google.com" for googles online version, but it was just so easy to use the apple clients (calendar and mail)), i was surprised tho at the games, looked like they were all small and there was a 2x button and then it all became pixelated, still looked okay, but still surprising.

My friends' parents got an iPad recently, and the small apps with a 2x button are iTouch/iPhone apps FYI. The iPad looks cool, but I don't think you can get $500+ of usefulness out of it.
Quit procrastinating and make something awesome.

Same here, though if someone were to buy it for me... ;D

To answer your question:

God will banish your from heaven. You will never look upon a vagina again. Ever. And, you shall never taste either chocolate, coffee, or any cocoa bean derivatives. And, Satan shall welcome you with anal pineapples.

So, not registering is your choice...But, obviously, I'd advise for it.

No, that's what happens if you endorse Apple. It'd products are fine, the company is not.
