Home screen crashing

I just upgraded my iPod Touch to iOS7.1 and my home screen keeps crashing where it goes to a black background with the apple icon and a line underneath. Wasn't this bug one of the features supposedly fixed with this new update?
Can someone help????

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

"Fixes a bug that could occasionally cause a home screen crash"

After updating to 7.1 still I am facing the issue "Fixes a bug that could occasionally cause a home screen crash". Is any one facing the same?

tl;dr version: it's glitchy and slow, it freezes and lags especially when typing, it isn't a hardware problem, and it's awful.

I am having an issue where safari keeps crashing and returning to the home screen on an ipad1

safari on my ipad1 keeps crashing and returning to the home screen. rebooting does not fix the problem neither has a full reset through itunes from a backup or setting up as a new machine. Cab nay body help?

If restoring from a backup doesn't help, you must have something corrupt in the backup - like a Safari bookmark perhaps - or something in the Safari history. Try the last tip in this list first.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Close Safari and all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Cache. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

ios7 bookmarking web application to home screen via Safari, crashes after login and when we try to open any link inside from the icon that gets created on the home screen. Can anyone please tell me if there is any scheduled fix for this bug in safari?
From what i understand i see that - Cookies are not transferred between your website and your webapp when installing the icon on the home screen (for authentication purposes for example). It was working until 6.1 and now it’s not working anymore.
Can someone please tell me if this bug will be fixed in any future release, if so the ticket number of some kind that i can track, or if there is a workaround for this issue?

Many Programs Crash to Home Screen

Maps, Weatherbug, and other programs frequently crash then take you to the home screen.
I've restored my iPhone, but the prob still occurs.
Any ideas as to why?

My Droid Razr M home screen keeps crashing after the update. Can it be reversed?

My Droid RAZR M is now a paperweight. The home screen keeps crashing. I'm forced to access anything by sliding down the main screen and going to the new settings area, which I discovered. I tried forcing the app to stop, but that didn't do anything. I cleared the cache, disabled it - nothing. I HATE THIS! I want to make it go away. Is there anything short of resetting the phone that can UN-update the update?
Oh, and also, now my texts are Google talk - ugh. double ugh.
Frustrated here.

Not even factory reset will roll back the update. My issue was a loss of the ability to connect to WiFi anytime after about 20 minutes after reboot.
The only thing I can suggest is to call tech support and let them walk you through a couple of routines and then they can send out a replacement phone. (It's what I had to do.) My issue is that the replacement is running 4.1.2 and now my FitBit won't work with it. I wish I did not upgrade from 4.2. (Maybe another release?)

SharePoint Newsfeed iOS app crashes to Home screen

Hello!
We are having some trouble getting the SharePoint Newsfeed mobile app to work on iOS devices with our on-prem SharePoint 2013 instance. When users go to sign in, they enter their username, password, and URL (the URL has been verified as correct). When they
tap the "Sign in" button, the app shows the "Loading..." screen for about a second, and then crashes to the Home screen. This is happening on all iOS devices we have tested it on, which span multiple versions of iOS 6, as well as iOS 7.
However, the SharePoint Newsfeed mobile app works fine on Windows Phone 8 devices with our SharePoint instance. Has anyone else seen this problem or have any recommendations on how to resolve it?
Thank you!

Hi siasmj,
Could you access SharePoint MySite from iOS browser?
Please check if you input the correct personal site URL (http/https) in your iOS SharePoint Newsfeed app.
Please also try removing and re-installing the SharePoint Newsfeed app from your iOS devices, and test again.

1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.

Ipad crashes to home screen/ password

My iPad (4th gen) randomly exits to the password screen. I have to re-enter my password & it returns to whatever I have opened. It does not seem to be app related. Any suggestions?

I don't think that I have ever heard of crashing back to the passcode screen....the home screen, yes - but not the passcode screen.
Have you tried closing all of the apps in the recents tray and then reboot the iPad? It's easy to so, it's harmless, and it might help....
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Why does my iPod crash to the home screen when I open an app?

My iPod touch has been crashing to the home screen when I stay on aps such as Safari, Facebook, or the App Store for a short period of time. For example, when I go to the App Store to update my apps it crashes right away, wheras in Safari it wll crash after a few minutes of browsing the web.
Are there ways to prevent this from happening?
Thanks so much!

Have you tried the basics from the manual?
restart.
reset.
restore.

I have a iphone4 and I cannot go on my messages or my settings otherwise it crashes or sends me back to the home screen, what do I do?

I am having a big problem with my iphone as it is only allowing me to go on certain apps, I cannot get onto my settings or messages because if I do it crashes or sends me back to the home screen, I've had this problem for a while and have tried almost everything, can anyone help me please?.

Quit Safari and reset the iPad.
Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
