I have the mobile version enabled on my site http://www.drcoit.com/, but I don't want it to kick in on an ipad. Is there a way to set this so it's the regular pc site on ipad?

Not without custom coding. If there's no specific ipad layout, it often fallsback to the iphone layout anyway.

Having said that, iPads don't usually identify themselves as mobile devices by default, so it might not be the problem you may think.

I have had several people complain that they are getting the mobile version on their iPad. According to http://www.jeffdepascale.com/index.php/general/why-the-ipads-user-agent-string-presents-a-problem/ the iPad does identify itself as a mobile device.

A way to choose which version to send to iPads would be a great help.

Hello,

The mobile view includes iPad. You would have to disable the mobile view in the template configuration if you do not want this to appear on the iPad.
