I find myself unable to pinch to home screen while using iPad Air..it hapenned twice

While I was opening some applications and then I wanted to pinch to home screen but I found it doesn't work then I tried closing the opened applications then I tried pinching ..finally it works.. This happened twice ..is it just an incident or there is something wrong in my ipad

As Bob said Newsstand doesn't always pinch to close. In my limited experience it has behaved differently in different versions of the iOS, and behaves differently for different magazines.
Otherwise, were you using all 5 fingers?
You don't have a practical joker friend who may have turned multitasking gestures off in Settings?

My home screen icon get misligned when I switch between apps. also subway surfer behave strangley as in there is a graphical glitch

I have no idea what Subway Surfer should look like so I wouldn't know if there was a graphical glitch in your screenshot or not, but I assume that the brown figure on the left side should, have real definition in the features and details in the clothing rather than just look like a smeary brown blob. That's just a guess on my part.
I understand that you paid good money for the device and that it should not be doing what you are experiencing. I would start with the basic troubleshooting steps - moving all the way up to a complete restore of the iOS - and if they don't work, then you will have to contact Apple if you want resolution to the problem. They must have an authorized repair facility that you could send the device to if needed.
Restart, reset, restore.

Which operating system are you using?
In photoshop elements 6, as far as i know, you can only change the Reference Point Location for transforms using the small grid in the left hand corner of the tool options bar with Transform enabled.

IPad changes to home screen while I'm on Internet!

Why does my iPad automatically switch to the home screen while I'm on the Internet?

Try this:
Close all Inactive Apps
1. Double-click the Home button to see all Inactive Apps
2. Hold the Apps down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close App
4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo (ignore the red slider)

TS3274 iPad screen goes to home screen while i am searching on the Internet

Can anyone tell me why my iPad will go to the home screen while I'm using the Internet to search for things? It will happen within a few seconds, and I then click on safari n my page reopens to where I was.

First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Still happen quit Safari like this.
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
Then delete the safari cache and history in Settings. Hopefully then the problem will be corrected.

Is it possible to replicate the home screens from an ipad to an iphone?

is it possible to replicate the home screens from an ipad to an iphone?

Not really, as the iPad has more screen real estate & can thus show more icons, 24 vs 20 for the iPhone.

IOS 7, The 5 finger pinch to home keeps freezing my iPad mini. Any solutions?

When I use the 5 finger pinch to home operation sometimes it will freeze the iPad screen and I have to use the two bottom restart to unfreeze it. Just wandering if this is an issue for anyone else and if Apple knows about this issue.

Thanks I did full restore as instructed. It was okay again and when I restore my backup it suffered the same problem. So I tried to go to settings> general> reset > reset all setting, it solved my problem. I don't know the root cause of the problem, but before I used assistive touch, emoji, Japanese keyboard and highlight to speak.

After resetting ipad, unable to get to home screen. Only displays request to attach to Itunes, which I did. What next?

after resetting ipad and removing all programs, cannot get to home screen. Only get request to plug in to itumes,which I did, and it still goes back to that, and the apple logo.

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.

Is it normal to see white lines when you press the home screen while it's charging?

Hi, I have a brand new ipad mini and I'm noticing that while I'm charging it and it's in sleep mode, if I press the home screen button whitish/grey lines will appear on the bottom of the screen for a few seconds then fade away. Is normal when charging your ipad mini?

No it is not.

Do you know how to 'find' a word on a regular webpage using ipad air?

I use this function on my MacBook all the time by pressing 'command + F'.
Is there any way to do this on iPad Air? On this page there is a search area in the top right corner to 'find' words on this page,
but on a regular webpage, this search area doesn't exist, so I am looking for a similar function to be able to do that.

I believe paulcb's answer assumes you have already done a search at the top of the page (like a Google search).
Here is the entire context, that includes the section paulcb quoted. I believe there is a prerequisite as indicated here that is needed before paulcb's solution would work:

Where can I find a waterproof, shockproof, dustproof, dirtproof etc case for my Ipad Air very soon and not have to wait for the perfect case for months to come out from Lifeproof company???

Hello,
I just bought a new Ipad Air 128gb w/verizon coverage. I definitely need a all proof case for it like the Lifeproof case I already have for my Ipad 4 w/retina display. Unfortunately I'm hearing Lifeproof hasnt come out with the Air case yet. Can anyone help me locate a company similar that will have that sort of case pls. thanks.

I know Targus has one called Safeport with 3 levels of 'strong, stronger, strongest' but I couldn't find it specifically saying it accommodated the Air on their site. BUt it could be another brand for you to search for.

Have you tried device without memory card in place? Pain as it may be backing up essential data, you may have to consider a "hard reset" to exclude any possible software corruption or possbly re-install current version of firmware.

I have a 2nd generation Ipod touch. Lately the screen will not light up and also at times while typing it returns to the home screen (such as in facebook. Any suggestions?

Have you tried any of the usual 5 R's for troubleshooting. See here for more information.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
If none of those resolve the issue (including restoring the device back to factory defaults), the backlight issue is likely hardware related, meaning you'll need to have your iPod serviced either by Apple or a third party repair company.

IPhone goes to home screen while surfing

while in safari surfing, my iPhone auto goes to home screen. What's the problem? It is a pain while composing emails or even this MSG as it usually causes me to have to log back in and start over

When it goes back to the home screen that means the application has crashed. Try going to settings - safari and empty caches/cookies/etc to see if this will correct the issue.
