I've returned 3 iPads in one week that completely quit working

The first one was activated and worked for 2 minutes until I selected maps. It then showed 25 lines horizontally and froze. Wouldn't allow rebooting per directions.
I returned it to a different Apple store and it was replaced. The second one froze in the Apple store. Employees couldn't restore it.
The third one lasted once week and then froze in Safari. Took it to the Apple store and it was replaced.
Now I'm on my fourth iPad in one week. What has happened to Apple? Been buying products since 1989 and never have I seen such poor quality.
Last store tried to blame me for the problems. Even when it refused rebooting in the store just out of the box.

The only thing I can tell you is that my iPad is working perfectly since day 1...
What is your question exactly?

  • Since moving to OS 10.7.3 one of my animations quit working in Safari

      Since moving to OS 10.7.3 one of my animations quit working correctly in Safari 5.1.7  (it works correctly in all other browsers on Mac and PC). I restarted the computer to make sure that wasn't a problem. Other animations on the site are working correctly.
    Here is the page:
    http://www.loriswebs.com/menu_samples.html
    It's the "menu item indented on mousover animation."  It's not supposed indent only one line of text.
    You'll have to view it in another browser to see how it's supposed to work.
    Anyone know what could be causing this?

    Firstly, apologies for the delayed response! Secondly, thanks for the advice!
    I have created another user and both browsers are perfectly fine and instantly responsive.
    My security settings are on WPA/WPA2-Personal(PSK).
    Any suggestions what in my main user causes the problem?

  • I updated Ipad to IOS7.1 my apps quit working

    I updated my IPad to new IOS 7.1 and my Keeper app quit working any thoughts?  Already tried all the Keeper folks solutions. All the date is still in the Ipad memory  but the app wont open to access it.  Thanks.

    What happens when you try? Getting an error message?
    Try this  - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • After 2 weeks my ipod quit working, please help.

    I’ve had my iPod 30GB for 2 weeks and it has worked perfect until last night when I properly unhooked from the computer (which I do many times a day) and the display showed the apple icon. The first thing I did was to reset it. after four minutes it showed the language screen and after another minute it went to the menu (does this each time I reset it). All my content was gone. Neither itunes or ipod updater recognize it. I put it in “disk mode” same results. It shows as a drive in windows explorer but when I click on it the computer shows “please insert disk into drive” I went though all the steps I could find on the web site and even tried to install it on a computer that has never had itunes on it. Same results. I have a second cable I tried also. The first time I reset the ipod it made a couple of clunking noises that it did not make before or since. Any ideas I hate to have to send it back.

  • I currently have and Iphone and Ipad on one Itunes account. My work is providing me with another work Ipad to link with my Iphone.  Do I need to create another account to keep things seperate?

    I currently have a personal iPad and an iPhone linked to one iTune account. My employeer is providing me with a work iPad to use and this will be linked to my iPhone, should I create a second account for the work iPad?

    Existing apps and content would not be automatically downloaded. You'd have to download apps and music manually, or sync them from a computer.  New purchases would be automatically downloaded if you set the iPad to do that. Otherwise, again, you'd have to manually download or sync from iTunes.
    Regards.

  • HT201317 iCloud on my iPhone and iPad....photo sharing quit working

    I have enabled iCloud on my iPhone and iPad for sharing photos....it worked for awhile but recently stopped.  We have checked the settings as instructed...it appears to be consistent with the iCloud instructions....plus, both devices are on the same wi-fi.....why did it stop working?

    I assume you mean that your two devices are sharing the same photo stream, but they are no longer streaming new photos to each other.  To troubleshoot this, first determine which device is not adding new photos for photo stream by taking a new photo on each and seeing if the photo appears in the photo stream album on the device after a minute or so.  (The must be connected to wifi, have the camera app closed, and have at least 20% battery life remaining in order to upload photos to photo stream.)
    If one of your devices fails to add new photos to its photo stream album, save the photo stream photos that you want to keep on the device to the camera roll (if not already there) by tapping Edit, tapping the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, turn photo stream off, wait a minute or so, then turn it back on.  Then take a new photo and see if it appears in the photo stream album now, and streams to the other device.

  • How to manually backup iPad to iTunes now that iCloud is working?i

    Now that iCloud is backing up my iPad finally, I would still like to do a manual backup to iTunes. Can someone provied the details of how to do this correctly? I assume I still have to tether it to my iMac. I'm confused because It looks like it is still backing up to iTunes as it did before but I seems some people using right click on iTunes Icon and so on, so need to get the correct procedure. Thanks

    You cannot backup to iCloud and to the computer at the same time if that is what you are asking - in other words if you are looking for a way to always have "backup to iCloud" enabled and "Backup to this computer" enabled - both at the same time - you can't do it.
    There is no way to set it up so the whenever you backup - you backup to iCloud and the computer at the same time - simultaneously that is. Does that answer your question?
    I thought the OP was asking how to switch between the cloud and the computer for backups but maybe I am wrong.

  • Send/Receive issue- third time in one week

    I've been having the same issue for the past week with my phone sending and receiving emails. 
    The first time, I had "No Service" for over a day and finally took the battery out and it was okay except for the receiving emails part.
    The second time, I called the T-Mobile support line and they walked me through the process and everything worked smoothly.
    Yesterday and this morning, same issue.  I couldn't send or receive.  So I took the battery out, resent service books and now everything is fine.
    My concern is that this is the third time in one week that this has happened.  When I spoke with the rep, he said there didn't seem to be any network issues.  At first he thought there was a server issue because I'm from the west but now live in the midwest and my phone still "operates" on the west coast network (if you will) but there didn't seem to be any issues out there. 
    Has anyone else ever experienced this issue this often?  Any recommendations on additional steps I should take opposed to always taking the battery out and resending service books, etc.?
    Thanks!

    Hi Anton,
    As far as I know, Outlook 2010 allow up to 5 Exchange accounts to be configured in a single mail profile by default. But the limit can be changed up to 15 accounts by adding a registry key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Exchange
    DWORD: MaxNumExchange
    Value: a number between 1 and 15
    Please try adding this key and let me know the result.

  • Ipad Calender strange behaviour - It goes back one week

    I have an iPad (Not iPad 2).  I have updated the software and am using iCloud (I used to use Mobile Me).
    I have my cal set to Monday as the start of the week day.  I use week view
    My problem is ONLY with All day events on a Monday.
    If I try and edit one of those entries the calender goes back one week and then goes back to the correct week and comes up with the edit box.
    What is wrong.  This never happens on my iPhone 4 also synced via iClous but there is no week view.
    Have I got a setting wrong ?  If so where is it.
    Does this happen on yoiur iPad and is it only on a Monday for you or is it on what ever day is your start of the week ?
    How can I fix this ?  It's really bugging me . I have spent hours looking for a solution.

    Just to add ...
    I have changed my international settings to the US (They were on the UK as thats where i am) and the problem is now with all day events on a Sunday and fine for the monday.
    It seems to be a bug on first day of the week all day events or something I am doing wrong
