Re: [iPad] Removing photos from iPad mini
My latest photos at
I purchased an iPad mini 16 GB with the thought of having it primarily as a mobile library and internet research facility. I did not think in advance how much storage space digital pix take up.
I backed the the iPad on my iMac, and on the iCloud. However, I cannot find out visually a way to verify that the photos I backed up are in fact on my iMac's hard drive or in the iCloud's ether.
So, will someone with much greater knowledge that I, please tell me how to go about freeing up precious HD space on my iPad mini. Is there an easy way to remove photos and verifying they are on my external HD or on the iCloud?

The most important thing to know to answer your question is how the images on the iPad got there.
By syncing with an image folder on the computer?
or
By taking the images *with* the iPad?
or some 3rd alternative?

Re: [iPad] Ouch a real iPad Virus / Ransomware
Spearhead an initiative using multi-factor authentication. Most of the best people are. There are always good ideas. Amazon and better sites are laden with multi-factor authentication at several layers.

Ideally, yes.
That said, at least they are both dealing with *one* company (Apple), with theoretically comparable security at their different locations.
I started off with what was eventually termed an Apple ID for use with iTunes, long before there was a Mac App Store, or iCloud.com, or even Mac.com – and then almost accidentally acquired a different one for their cloud services.
Currently, I have only 3 passwords that I remember, and that is because I use them all the time, and don't want the inconvenience of a super-safe 20-mixed-character random selection that I would have to look up every time.
One is used ONLY as my log-on password for my computer.
One is used ONLY as my iTunes/App Store password.
And the 3rd is used ONLY as the master password for my password manager.
Everything else has different passwords, all stored, encrypted, in the 1Password software.

More relevantly, since it is apparently NOT a defect in iCloud security, how can Apple patch "users so stupid as to use the same password for iCloud as elsewhere" ?

Hi Jim:
Should the Apple ID and the Cloud IDs be different?

Patch?
First you create a password for a site, banking perhaps, or Target, or some such, that gets hacked through *their* system vulnerabilities.
Then, against ALL advice to the contrary, you re-use that same password on iCloud.
The hacker tries the thousands of passwords he got from his hack, together with the attached name, on iCloud.
He finds a few that match, locks those people's devices, and demands ransom.
It isn't clear to me how Apple fixes the users stupidity.

Re: [iPad] Ouch a real iPad Virus / Ransomware
"lock this device if it gets lost or stolen" protocol. They have smart people who have locked down much harder thing others have failed to.

"seem to involve any malware or malicious activity on the device itself"
I don't understand your heading -- what has happened is neither a virus
nor is it Ransomware. Instead it is a person who has been able to take
control of the iDevice from a remote location through using Apple's own
anti-theft protocol.
Yes it is asking for a ransom, but true ransomware is a piece of
software which is loaded onto your device and then takes control until
you pay the ransom.
This is just a clever person outsmarting Apple's own "lock this device
if it gets lost or stolen" protocol.
How exactly do you expect Apple to patch things so that this can't happen?
