Can I safely reset my old ipad mini (2) after setting up my new ipad mini (6)?
I started deleting photos from the old ipad and noticed that the same photo was deleted from the new one. I don't want that to happen if I do a complete reset on the old device.
how can I prevent these 2 ipads from communicating?
