Ios 8.0.2 sync after restore freezes after ipad mini restore

Its unbelievable the kind of buggy releases apple has started releasing off late! this is worse than microsoft!
i have an ipad mini 1st gen with ios 8.0.2, the UI was extremely laggy so i transferred my purchases, backed up and restored my ipad. now the app syncing never ends! it freezes on some or the other app each time i restart the sync. its getting on my nerve. i left it to sync all afternoon and this time it froze on pages (which was the 5th app being synced).
HELP!

Try the following:
Try logging out of your Apple ID:
Settings/iTunes & App Store/(tap your Apple ID)/tap Sign Out
Next, reset your device:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
After the reset, sign back in to your Apple ID:
Settings/iTunes & App Store, then sign back in using your credentials
If it doesn't work (I've now heard a couple of replies saying that it does NOT), you'll have to wait for a fix by Apple since this is a system notification.
The other option (which should work) is to restore the device as new (not from a backup), and move your content (data, settings, music, apps, etc) back to the device manually. You'll need a backup your content. This is a pretty big & involved task so you may just want to ignore that badge on your Settings app.

  • HT1689 ran out of space while trying to ask question! ipad synced, new ios update 10 hour installed, itunes apparently stopped working, ipad mini requires connecting to itunes. ipad detectecte recovery mode, RESTORE.  Restore what? Whole bloody thing?

    I just synced the iPad Mini. then installed ios7.04. After 10 hour installation found that iTunes was frozen, and ipad required to be connected to itunes!restarted computer, reconnected ipad Mini.  Now "ipad detected in recovery mode, restore" Click on "OK" and the only usable default left is reset factory settings.  Does that mean i have to go through the whole rigmarole again?

    Unfortunately yes it does. You might want to temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and that may speed up the process. However, you have to restore the iPad again, if it is in recovery mode.

  • IPhone 6 iOS 8.1 - WiFi disconnects after 1 min. from Internet Shared of an iPad Mini

    Hi all,
    I have an iPad Mini with 4G, one of the main uses is that I use it to share the internet connection as a hotspot with other devices such my Samsung Galaxy S4 without any problem. A few days ago, I've buught the new iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1 to replace my old Galaxy S4, but when I try to do the same thing using my iPad mini as hotspot, I noticed that the iPhone lose the link to the iPad after a minute aprox after I stop using it, to make the sharing work again I need to go into the Sharing Internet screen on the iPad and turn it Off and then On again. I just want to share the internet and keep connected with my iPhone while both devices are in range just as I did with my Galaxy S4.
    Hope you can help me.
    Thanks!

    Hi there davidDAE,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below if you are experiencing issues with personal hotspot.

  • 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 ios 7.0.3 cant access app store on ipad mini

    I'm having a couple problems with my ipad mini after upgrading to 7.0.3. First, whenever i go to sleep/wake, or shut off, the screen flickers weird and has a weird box artifact flickering at the bottom of the screen. Second, certain websites don't load properly, speciffically facebook. Last, but most troubling, I can't open the app store. I tried closing the app and reoppening it. I tried rebooting my ipad a couple times, and everytime I open the app store I get a blank screen and a pop up saying "can not connect to app store".

    (A) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
    Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

  • Sync mail accounts to new iPad Mini

    I just got a new iPad Mini, and going to set it up, didn't there used to be a way to sync all one's email accounts, when it was setup and plugged into iTunes?  I could have swore there was a check box, that you selected, and all your different email accounts one had, was transferred and added to your iOS device, but am not seeing it now... do I actually have to go in and manually add each and every email account?!  It does my iCloud email, which is fine, but that's it... there are my own domain email addresses, my gmail, my local ISP email account... 
    Didn't that used to be in iTunes the way for those to be synced and added to one's device, without having to go in and do them all individually?  If that abilitiy is still there, where is it now?  If no longer the case now - what?  Are we to add them manually each and every one?!
    Please, someone say it's the former and not the latter.
    Thank you for your time and help you may provide.  All the best to you,
    JPH

    Hi, Demo...
    I actually discovered this awhile ago when trying to get my email accounts onto my iPhone, and ended up having to go in and manually add each and every email account into my phone, after seeing that the ability in iTunes to sync all one's email accounts was no longer there...  But, with the new iPad Mini now, was not wanting to have to go in and do it all again, and so was checking to see if I was just missing it, and apparently I am not, and it is no longer there to do so.
    When I set up my iPad, I even had it backup from my iPhone's latest backup, but it still did not add the email accounts... Like you, I have the latest version of everything... am going to go in and see what I can do... maybe backup my iPhone again, and then just do a restore of my iPad Mini to that latest iPhone backup... though I really don't want to do that as I spent a good portion after getting the iPad yesterday of setting my iPad up to how I wanted everything, to now go erase all that!
    Or, maybe I will just get ahold of Apple Support 
    Thanks for your time, Demo, I appreciate it.  All the best to you,
    JPH

  • App Store freezing on iPad Mini

    Hi, new to the forum. I bought a 16GB iPad mini at a black Friday sale and since updating it to ios8.1 the App store freezes upon opening. It just shows me a gray screen for a few seconds before loading up. Is this normal/bug/hardware malfunction?

    Hi smarino100,
    If you are having issues with your iPad becoming unresponsive when launching the App store, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPad -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPad as a new device -
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • HT204053 cannot sync calendar on my new ipad mini. my mac and macbook use a .me account for iCloud. How can I change this?

    I cannot sync calendar on new ipad mini. My mac desktop and mac book have an old .me icloud account name. Cannot change that so how do I sync?

    If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe.  The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
    This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however.  If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.

  • Why can't I sync my music with my iPad mini? I am using the latest version of all software available

    I don't understand why I cannot sync any of my songs with my ipad mini through itunes. Please help

    Hello cwill2
    Change one of the options to sync, like check to see if you are Manually managing your music and videos. If you are you can drag and drop the music you want to your iPad mini. If you are not, then check the things that you want synced in the music tab when looking at your iPad mini in iTunes. Either way, change it and sync, then revert the changes and you should be able to get your music on there.
