ipad continues to go to home screen I slide arrow to unlock, it asks if I want to unlock. Hit cancel and process happens again b4 allowing system to unlock. Not sure if hardward or ios problem. Ant ony else seen this problem?
Cant afford a new device at this time.

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

I just downloaded my latest update and my Ipad just defaults to my home screen. I was reading a book on Overdrive before t.he download and whe I now Tory to open it just. Takes me to mt home screen. The same with Safari. Any thoughts.

Try a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously you see the Apple logo and then release.

When viewing websites or iTunes my iPad sometimes goes to the home screen.

My iPad sometimes jumps back to the home page when on iTunes searching music or on safari searching websites does anyone else have this issue?

Your apps are crashing on you. Sometimes these basic fixes will help.
1. 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 - let go of the buttons.
2. Quit the offending app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your 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 of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. 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.
3. This may help with Safari. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. 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.

IPad revers back to a home screen from another page being used, IE Facebook Good battery and wifi signal

iPad revers back to a home screen from another page being used, IE Facebook Good battery and wifi signal. Sometimes several times in a couple of minutes. Could there be an problem with internal hardware

Hi there
My wife and I have been dealing with a very similar issue with our iPhone 5ss, all battery drain issues started after the upgrade to ios 7.03. We have performed numerous restores and have had 3 trips to the Genius Bar. Finally they gave us new iPhones (yesterday). We had hoped this would do the trick but we have the same problem on the new phones.
This morning I restored one and didn't sign into iCloud. Battery drain is now gone. And when I deleted iCloud from my wife's phone it too went back to normal. So I believe the culprit is iCloud and I am now testing various setups with iCloud to determine which app/setting is causing the problem.
Hope this helps with your phones. I will post again if I can narrow it down to something specific.
Good luck!

IPad mini is stuck between home screen and multitasking

So my iPad got stuck between the home screen and the last app i had open when i was trying to get it to multitask. I've tried to hold down the sleep/wake button and home button and it just takes a screen shot, even when i hold it for 20+ seconds. Or, it'll go to siri and when i tell siri to open any given app, she tells me she wasn't able to. I am so frustrated its been like this for almost an hour now. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down (together at the same time) until you see the Apple Logo.

My iPad keeps reverting to the home screen, both from Safari and Mail. ???

My iPad keeps reverting to the home screen from Safari and Mail. ???

Have you tried closing the two apps completely ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Safari or Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari and Mail apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Hallo. I did it this several times and I have the latest update to iOS 6.0.1, but still the red mark 1 at the Settings icon. Do you have any other idea?
Thank's.

I have just uploaded the new software and a strange app has appeared on my home screen ( a grey target, panorama thing without the man) there is no title under it and I can't seem to delete it. What is it? Do I need it? How do I delete it?

I have an email that won't disappear from my screen.
I push cancel and nothing happens.
I can see my accounts "behind" the email but I can't access them.
I have turned machine off and on again.
What else?

Go back to your homescreen, then completely close down your mail app by double clicking the home button to open the multi-tasking bar. Hold your finger on the mail app icon and then click the red circle that appears on the left of the icon.
Once you have done that, reopen the mail app and you should be sorted.

The message means that you need to restore the iPad using iTunes. When you connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes, if you cannot see the iPad under the devices heading in the sidebar of iTunes, you wll have to restore using recovery mode. If you see the iPad under the devices heading, click on it and then click on the summary tab on the right and click on restore.
If that doesn't work, this is how to restore with recovery mode.
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad.
If you are running iTunes 11 - and you can't see the sidebar - to to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top of the screen.

When i open the cover of my ipad Air i get the home screen Im sure i used to get the lock screen

I have my iPad Air kept in a third party cover which operates the sleeep/wake function
I have just become aware that when i now open the cover, i get a home screen and not the lock screen
is this something that has changed with the intro of ios 8.1.3
I miss the time and date when i now open the cover

Just had some second thoughts on this
1/ My wife says her iPad2 does the same
2/ I think that if there are any notifications then the Lock screen will appear - will have to try this
3/ If i operate the sleep/wake button manually ( the button at the top RH it works ok
No big problem but something has changed

MY IPAD 2 WILL NOT LOAD HOME SCREEN. HOLDING THE HOME BUTTON AND RESTORE BUTTON WONT BRING UP APPLE LOGO EVEN AFTER A MINUTE. IT TAKES SCREEN SHOTS AND A BRIEF FLASH BUT THEN NOTHING. IDEAS?

Anyone? C'mom, I know some of you techie type folks know how to fix this!
