I'm updating my calendar and have just spotted that my iPad has noted my birthday.

I'm not sufficiently addled (yet) that I need reminding of my birthday but am curious as to how it knows the date.

I don't recall giving my DOB when setting up the iPad.

Nobody else uses my iPad so it's not that.

I've had my email address for years and cannot recall providing my DOB, might have done though.


does it share a router with your 'phone or laptop that might have your DOB?
did you transfer any data from an old phone, i pad...
I know hotmail ask for your DOB.
Question Author
Facebook is a possibility.....not sure i understand the sharing aspect though :-/

Shut it Bernie.....I'm not so old I can't slap you!

Err, isn't a router just that.....how would that work?

No transferring done all new and shiny with no baggage.....or so I though :-(
lol only having fun eccles xxx very strange tho, has someone else used it!
Question Author
I'm not overly concerned but am somewhat intrigued.

Bernie, I know you are joshing however you still warrant a slap ;-)
i'd go for facebook syncing to your ipad is the reason, and i don't like pain NO slapping please xx
oooh, so the cuddlyone doesn't mind being slapped? :-D

Had a strange thing t'other day, uploaded cv onto a job site, then went to register and address and phone number were already there (was already there?)
Presume they'd taken it from the cv, I hope so anyway.
lol albs xx no one can reach that high to slap me
Out of curiosity I have just checked mine - my ipad knows my birthday but my iPhone doesn't. No idea how but I think it is linked to FB as a freind's wedding (which I have been invited to as an 'event') is the only other thing on my calendar.
Question Author
Thanks Sherrard, I'll have a little dig about to see if there are any other dates that have mysteriously appeared that are linked to FB.
Cuddlyone, that's what step-ladders are for :-)

(sorry Eccles)

Sher, technology is a scary thing at times.
Just checked my calendar on the iPad and it hasn't put my birthday in, it's registered on FB but I can't remember if it's on my gmail account.
