IPad 1 randomly kicks me out of whatever app I'm work in.  Using IOS 5.1.1

Does anyone have any ideas about why my iPad randomly kicks me out of whatever app I'm in and back to the desktop.  I have done a restart a number of times.  The software 5.1.1 is up to date.  There is plenty of available storage left.  I'm out of ideas!

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

    Why am I having trouble loading apps and updates on my iPad? I have closed out all my apps and rest my iPad but still no luck. Can someone help me please?

    Try a reset, press and hold both the home and power buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own.

  • I installed Facebook from the app store on my iPad and it kicks me out

    I have installed Facebook on my iPad and when I scroll down the page to look at posting it
    KIcks me out or if I share a photo it kicks me out
    Can anyone help

    Hello sandyfromcroydon,
    It seems you are unable to post photos using the Facebook app on your iPad. Have you checked your photo privacy settings at any point? Take a look at the following article which explains the privacy controls, and where you can find them:
    Understanding privacy and Location Services on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch with iOS 8 - Apple Support
    Privacy controls in iOS 8
    iOS 8 gives you control over which apps have access to information stored on your iOS device. For example, you can allow a social-networking app to use your camera, allowing you to take and upload pictures. You can also grant access to your contacts, so a messaging app can find any friends that are already using the same app.
    You can modify privacy settings at Settings > Privacy. You can select a type of data from this list to see which apps have asked for permission to use that data. An app won't appear on the list until it asks permission to use your data. You can add or remove permission from any app that has asked for access to data. An app can use your data only if you have given it your permission.
    If you allow third-party apps or websites to use your data or your current location, you're subject to their terms, privacy policies, and practices. You should review the terms, privacy policies, and practices of the apps and websites to understand how they use your location and other information. Information Apple collects will be treated in accordance with Apple's Privacy Policy.

  • My iPad 4 is kicking me out of apps and camera will not work

  • My iPad has recently been kicking me out of my apps quite frequently.  Is there a problem with the iPad 1 that doesn't support the apps?

    I have an iPad 1 & have been playing games on it for about a year and a half...recently I am having trouble with getting kicked out of various apps & it happens quite frequently.  Is this something that could be related to the iPad1 since we are now up to an iPad 3?  Are the apps having troubles because of the generation, or is it the app itself.....I just want it fixed & don't have any reason nor inclination to upgrade to a 3 right now.  Anyone experiencing something similar?  What do I do?

    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.
    2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Mac Mini kicking me out of the window I'm working in

    I had the same problem more than a year ago, and someone here helped me fix it. I tried the same solution (running Yasu and making sure the prebinding option is selected), but this time it didn't work. I should mention that the problem started again immediately after I ran several MacOS updates (new version of iTunes, Safari, etc.) This is what's happening:
    The computer continually wants to go to the Finder. It is not a mouse issue, because the computer changes back and forth between windows when I'm not even touching it.
    For example, while I was typing this, it preceded this window by the Finder, so I had to click back onto this window in order to keep typing. (It doesn't close the window I'm in, just brings the other to the forefront).
    Sometimes it kicks me out of programs also, although the program doesn't crash. The window just closes and I have to reopen it. This is the most problematic when I'm trying to burn a CD, because it kicks me out of the burning window, and I'm unable to find it again and complete the process.
    I don't understand why Yasu worked last time but didn't this time. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    The first thing that springs to mind from your description is prebinding. Prebinding is the linking between MacOS and applications to their library files, and while it's rare, it can get disrupted and leave the system behaving in this way.
    The quickest and most painless way to update it (thus fixing the problem if it is caused by this) is to download a copy of YASU from http://jimmitchell.org/projects/yasu/ and set it to the prebinding task. Actually you can safely set it to all the tasks since from time to time trimming log files and clearing system caches is no bad thing. Once complete, the system should reboot (slowly).
    If the problem persists after that, it would be helpful to know if you have installed anything on the system prior to this behavior starting, including any MacOS updates or utilities, and whether you have noted any other inconsistent behavior on your system recently.

  • My iphone 5 will not let me delete emails and open up certain apps like Keep safe and kicks me out of different apps

    My iPhone 5 will not let me delete emails. I trash them and they look like they are deleted and then they will load back in. I cannot open my Keep Safe app after the last update. It said I needed more storage so I upgraded and it still will not load. It opens for a second and then goes to home page.  FB is hit or miss if it will open and when it does it is really slow.  Any suggestions?

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

  • Does anyone have any idea why Facebook is lagging on my ipad?  I have closed out all open apps and nothing changes.

    Does anyone have any idea why Facebook on my ipad is lagging badly, I have closed down all other apps and nothing helps.

    As long as your pad isn't doing other things,( and you have already shut off everything else..) then the issue is in the connection from you to whoever you are talking to.  How good is your wifi speed?  And the person at the other end.  There are a lot of transfers of the signal from you to them, and you are sort of at the mercy of all the spots in between. 
    Do a speedtest to test your speed, and maybe give the call a try from a different place, like a Starbucks ( as long as their connection is not throttled)

  • A number of Apps won't work on my iOS 5 iPad

    iBooks, Kindle and others tell me that they need iOS 6 or later.  As I have a first generation iPad, iOS 5 is the latest that I can operate. Is there a way to get the earlier versions of these, and other Apps?

    Some apps will let you download and run older versions of the app instead if you dont have the latest operating system. This was only introduced a few months ago, but developers can control which older versions are available.
    There are some valid reasons to not allow older versions, it can create problems if someone has a mixture of devices of different ages, all sharing the same iCloud files, for example.
    You are unlikely to have much luck with iBooks, but it is worth asking Amazon whether they can flip the switch to make the older Kindle app available, etc.

  • I just updated my ipad 2 to 5.0 and now my apps don't work

  • IPad with a second iTunes library sync: all apps don't work any more...how can I fix the problem?

    I was used to sync my iPad (iOs 4.3.5) with my main personal computer (with windows 7 64 bit on it) but after the pc went off I synchronized the iPad to my laptop (windows vista 32 bit) just for searching iOs update...the result was that any apps work anymore!!!!! How can I fix the problem?
    Thank you in advance,
    Paolo

    If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
    If it's happening on all apps then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app '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 each app 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.

  • My iPhone 4 keeps kicking me out of Mail application at random

    Hi! So, my iPhone 4 (iOS 6.1.2) keeps kicking me out of the Mail application at random. Let's say I reply to an email and then delete the message. The screen goes black, and kicks me out of the app onto the home page. When I go back into Mail, the email will either A. Be still there and the reply never sent B. The email there with the replied symbol and the reply sent C. The email there with no replied symbol and not registered as sent but it was or D. The email gone.
    It never has a repeated pattern of kicking out, and what happens with the email seems it was decided at random. This is the first real problem I've had with my iPhone that's really annoying and I can't fix. Help?

    Try force closing the Mail app: from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Mail in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, tap the home button again.  See if it behaves normally now.
