After updating my iPad. why does it freeze after one touch, after updating my iPad. why does it freeze after one touch

My wife updated her operating system on her Ipad. Now it freezes after each touch of the screen. At which point she has to close the cover then reopen it, just so it can freeze again after the next touch. We have tried the reset option. Any advice?

  • HT4623 After I updated my iPad using my computer, it has started to lag a lot and run very slowly. Why is it doing this and is there any way to make it stop lagging?

    I updated my iPad mini last night using my laptop (I usually update it on the iPad itself) and after the update, the iPad has been slow and laggy ever since. When I try to type something, it freezes up and may not actually show that i typed it for another minute or two. Even if I close all my apps and restart it, the problem is still there. Does anybody know what's going on and/or how to solve this problem?

    Try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Keyboard Dictionary

    Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5? What can I do to make it work again?

    It should. It will only respond if there's something on the card for it to respond to, so do you have pics on the card?
    And if it's messing up; try giving the iPad a restart. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see hte red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. That can clear up any glitches on the device itself.

    Why does iPad 3 4G constantly restart after 8.3 update only when docked with iMac?

    That question is impossible to answer without more information. What troubleshooting steps have you performed? Did you try using another cable? Did you try using another USB port on the Mac? Did you reboot the Mac and reset the iPad? Have you tired restoring the iPad?

  • Why does my iPad 1 not open documents in pages from my mac after downloading update on pages on mac?

    Why does my iPad 1 not open documents from my updated mac-pro laptop pages since i updated the mac. Have updated latest pages for iPad 1 it could and still not able to open docs as i could before update on mac-pro

    The most recent version of Pages that you can run on the iPad 1, running iOS 5.1.1, is not compaible with the newest version of pages on the Mac.
    If you had the old version of Pages on your Mac, and off hand I can't remember what version it was, you should still be able to use that version and then it will be compatible with the Pages app on the iPad. I updated to the newest version of Pages some time back but was able to keep the older version as well.

  • Why does my system freeze after ever update from Firefox...and has gotten very slow

    My computer freezes during or after every update that come in automatically recently. It has also gotten extremely slow at the same time.

    Your setup looks like it should really fly.
    Often when people have serious slowdowns like you mention, it comes down to one of two things:
    a) Some problem with the user's account. One way to test if this is the case is to create a new admin user and try running FCP X from this new account. If the same projects that were slow behave well in this account you'll know that some setting, or cache, or login item, or whatnot in your own account is responsible.
    b) Some problem with a plugin. If there is a plugin that you use all the time, and maybe was not updated for the current version, and can cause slowdowns, then maybe you think it is the machine. See what plugins you are using, and run a test project without them. Does it run as fast as it should?

  • Why does Firefox freeze and/crash shortly after I install "updates"?

    Recently, after I have installed a newer version of Firefox, or updates you have provided my system freezes, won't open sites I access. This also affects my e-mail accounts!
    It's almost enough to make me reluctantly revert to Ineternet Explorer.'''bold text'''

    Does it help if you disable the plugin-container process?

  • Why does my keyboard and mouse freeze intermittently after updating to 10.8.2?

    After updating to 10.8.2 on my early 2011 Macbook Pro, whenever I pause for more than a few seconds using either the keyboard or the mouse, the pointer freezes. It takes a few seconds of dragging my finger across the keypad or hitting a number of keys before it begins to respond again.
    It doesn't appear that any background process is frozen or that the whole system is frozen because video still plays through without stuttering, and downloads continue updating the progress bar as the freeze occurs.
    The same thing has happened since my wife updated her Macbook Air. Very frustrating.
    Suggestions on a workaround or solution?
    Thanks.

    Have subsequently tried doing a re-install with the combo updater, repaired permissions, reset SMC and PRAM. No luck. When booting into safe mode, works fine but cursor is 'jittery' and the screen is erratic (like an old tv with rabbit ears antenna.)
    Any thoughts or help would be significantly appreciated.

  • Why does my Ipad screen keep freezing even after rebooting

    My ipad screen keeps freezing and remains stuck. So in the last hour this has happened 3 times after hard "reboots". Can someone explain whats going on? Uwas not downloading anything ..only looking at Facebook.

    Hello, Nina1711. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device.  Test the responsiveness of the iPad after processing these steps.  If the issue persists, check to make sure you have space available on the iPad in Settings/General/About.  If there is no space available you may want to remove unwanted Apps or media as this can cause the unit to become unresponsive.  If these steps have been processed with the issue persisting, you will need to restore the device.  Make sure to backup the device prior to restoring.

  • Why does my ipad crash after every update

    Every time I update my Ipad with the latest OS it crashes. It has happened 3 times and it took many attempts at reinstalling, etc. to get it back to normal. Therefore I have not updated in about a year or so. I decided to try once again and once more with no luck. I connected the Ipad to the computer, backed it up and then connected again to update. I arrived at the "Welcome to your new Ipad" screen and all seemed to be going well. The popup read "Restoring Ipad from backup", with 40 minutes remaining. Then a error message appeared: "ITunes could not restore the Ipad...because the backup could not be saved on the computer". Anyway, I managed to get things up and running but lost all photos that were on the "camera roll" and I lost years of progress on many game apps. Now when I connect the Ipad to the computer and look for a backup restore point, there is only one for the year 2013 and it was the one immediately following the new update??? I have connected this Ipad fifty time or more this year and ITunes says it is backing up the Ipad to the computer???? Where are all my backups and pictures and years of progress on game apps???

  • Why does my iPad crash after new update

    I updated my iPad with a new software update, but now it randomly goes to the home screen while I am viewing a page in safari or watching a YouTube video. Do I need to take it in to have it looked at, or is it a simple fix? I just installed the update this morning.
