After recording a video, my iPad 3 shows what's on cam but never responds to any button click or tap you make until you make a hard reset. Is this common?
Need help. This is not my only problem. My apps also keep on lagging. I already tried updating software via wi-fi and via iTunes, but it didnt fix it.
Hello, coleefy.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Try forcing all open applications in multitasking to close and power cycling the device. Once this is done test the results. If the behavior persists, try the troubleshooting steps in the second article below.
iOS: Force an app to close

iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

Rebel T2i Gets Stuck in "BUSY" Mode After Recording a Video
Hey! I've been recording video on my T2i for a while but suddenly, after recording a video, the camera would freeze in busy mode and then eventually shut off. I made a video explaing what is happening:
If anybody knows what I can do to fix this then please let me know.The camera powering off on you is the firmware crashing.
The on/off switch is really just a "software" switch. It does not actually deprive power. This is sort of like a TV and remote control... in that when you "turn off" a TV it's not *really* off... the screen is off and it's gone to 'sleep' but some part of it is technically 'on' and monitoring for a signal from your remote control. The same is true of the camera and the power swtich... it's actually in a kind of extended 'sleep' mode.
When you open the battery door (or even eject the battery) there's a micro-switch that cuts off power. That actually DOES turn the camera off (really 'off' because the camera has been deprived of all electricity.) Inserting the battery and closing the door causes the camera to 'boot' fresh again... so the power switch (and everything else) will actually be monitored and respond as intended.
So what's wrong? PROBABLY the memory card. In nearly all of these cases with the stuck 'busy' problem it means the camera is trying to write your video clip to the card and for whatever reason it is not successful.
I did notice you're using a SanDisk Ultra card (good). How old is the card?
A few tips:
ALWAYS format the card IN CAMERA (if you formatted a card while it was in your computer, then re-format it using the camera and pick the "low level" checkbox when you format it.)
I do suggest you perform a new in-camera format and make sure you check the "low level" option.
Memory cards do not last forever. It's also possible you've got a dud (nothing is 100%). The process of "writing" to a memory card is technically physically destructive (just a tiny bit) to the card. Reading is non-destructive... you can 'read' from a card millions of times and never wear it out, but each time you 'write' to the card and change the charge state in a memory location you will have ever-so-slightly caused 'wear' to that location. The card will eventually fail (all cards will). But for most cards you'll get something like 100,000 writes before it becomes a problem (years of heavy use). BUT... if you got unlucky and had a weak card, your card may be showing early signs of failure. It happens.
I ALWAYS suggest you own more than one card (I have lots of them) and test with a different card. If this is the only card you own, then you need to buy another card anyway because you never want to be caught without a spare card on-hand for just such an emergency.
Next... there are forgery cards on the market and some of them are amazingly good forgeries. What separates your really nice SanDisk Ultra card from all the non-name unlabled "junk" grade cards ... is that your card has a really nice sticker on it. It's not too difficult for a counterfeiter to print up a pretty convincing looking sticker. I and several others here will tell you that it's not just enough that you bought a top-name memory card... you ALSO need to buy that card from a known reputable dealer to make sure you're not buying a forgery card. Stated differently... I am unwilling to buy a memory card from a merchant I've never heard of before because they sell the same card I can get from a well-known merchant for $5 less. Screw the $5... I want "known" quanity and that's worth far more than $5 to me.
This is not to say that YOUR specific card is a forgery... even SanDisk will just occasionally ship out a card that passed they're quality test after being manufactured... but just barely. You get it and start using it heavily and the next thing you know it's showing signs of failure.
Could it be your camera? Sure... it's just unlikely.
Occam's Razor (a well-established guideline for critical thinking using the scientific method) states that among competing hypotheses, whichever one requires the fewest assumptions should be selected.
In your case the competing hypotheses are:
1) The camera is failing: Except that the camera doesn't fail at any other task... just this one particular task. That's a bit difficult to explain.
2) The memory card is failing: We've actually got well-established and well-understood failure of memory cards (a memory technology which will by it's very design WILL eventually fail.) We don't need to apply many assumptions here.
As I mentioned above... you need another memory card anyway (every camera owner should have at least 2). You may as well just start with that.
Good luck!

When i open up itunes on my computer, it says that i have 2 videos but when i sync it and check my ipod touch, it says i have no videos so it only shows up on my computer but not on my iPod touch and its a 4th Generation.
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How do I unlock my email in my iPad? The grouped email page (I have 3 accounts) shows an item as downloading, but never makes any progress. I also can't get to Mail, Contacts, etc. under Settings. Have reset the device numerous times.
There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them: -
I upgraded my 2009 Mac to Mountain Lion yesterday but cannot add photos from my iPhoto library to contacts anymore. Drop down menu only shows "default, recent and camera" but I cannot get to iPhoto library. Help stated to choose Faces but I don't even get that far. How do I fix. Still works on iPad but not on Mac.
When you have iPhoto and Contacts open and try to drag a picture for iPhoto to the Contacts photo frame do you get a + symbol? if not you should! from there the the pop menu should appear and then you can select the picture and click on done

HT201263 iPad recovery mode says "Waiting for iPad" but never progresses. Any suggestions?
I have a iPad 2 that will not power up nor will it recover. When plugged in, iTunes detects the iPad is in recovery mode and tells me I must restore to continue. I agree and iTunes downloads the recovery and updates file, decompressed it, verifies it, then says it is Preparing the iPad for recovery. I then get the apple logo on the iPad screen with a progress bar. iTunes then says "Waiting for iPad". The progress bar never moves and iTunes has said Waiting for iPad for 2-hours now. When I disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, the logo/progress bar remains until I do a hard reset (home button/power button) to power it off. Power button alone will not power it off. Again, the iPad will not power up and again, iTunes will recognize it when plugged in and the whole cycle starts over again.
When did this start happening? I mean, what was happening to the ipad that prompted you to try a restore in the first place?
Did this start when trying to updated the ios?
There were some issues awhile back with ipad 2 and updating to ios 6.1. The ios file had to be downloaded seperately to the computer and all other previous ios update files previously downloaded had to be deleted from the computer.
If what I'm saying describes the issue, then take a look at the following article links, otherwise, you may just have to keep trying to follow HT1808 (it may take several attempts).

My Ipad 2 is stuck in recovery mode after the update 6.1

I updated my first generation iPad to version 5.1.1 and won't go past the setup screen that asks if I want to use the iPad locator. I can go back but can't get any further
I just updated my original iPad 32 GB WiFi to iOS 5.1 about fifteen minutes ago. But I did it with the system restore feature in iTunes. So it wiped out everything on my iPad. But it did work. Then I restored an earlier backup and all went fine. Maybe you could try backing up your iPad and then using Restore to get it back to factory settings to see what happens.
