IPad 1 unresponsive after installing iOS 5?

Not even a week ago, I downloaded the new iOS 5 for my ipad 1. At first it was fine, but after a bit of usage, it would suddenly turn itself off or restart for no reason. Eventually it kept happening more frequently and more quickly. Now it won't turn on at all, it doesn't register in my itunes when i try to sync it to my computer, it is unresponsive when i charge it and it doesn't respond when I attempt a hard restart. I'm pretty sure it's due to iOS 5 because it only started happening after I installed it, so what should I do to fix it? It's still under AppleCare warranty, should I go instore?

I had the same problem and was ready to throw It in the trash. Last night I erased my iPad and set it up as new iPad instead of restoring. I didn't turn on iCloud until after I deleted my iCloud backup and turned off contact syncing with it. Since then it hasn't crashed and it has had about 4 hours of use. 5.0.1 didn't have an effect on it. Just happy I got my iPad back!

    How you close an application on ipad 4 after installing ios 7

    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app.

  • Faults in iPad 2 after installing iOS 6' ??? why

    After installing the new OS 6.q.1,  last week, several glitches ie Music files don't open and the app freezes, hotlinks in Mail freeze both Mail and Safari -  will reinstalling OS cure this ??.?

    No Apple employees here. Just other users like you. Many of us have had no problems at all.
    In order do this.....
    Quit all apps completely and reset 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. Reset the iPad.
    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.
    For the stalled downloads, try a couple of these things.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. 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.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • Why won't my ipad work after installing iOS 6???

    I upgraddd to iOS 6 on my ipad 2, and got as far as signing into my yahoo in order to include icloud, etc, and it kept timing out.  Eventually, it allowed me to skip that step, but I can't do anything with it anymore.  I got the Ipad so I wouldn't have to deal with this kind of thing.  What do I do to fix it? 

    Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Restore “...

  • After Install IOS 8 and 8.0.2, the Ipad audio was distorted, and the bluetooth connection to audio speaker have wheezing.

    After Install IOS 8 and 8.0.2, the Ipad audio was distorted, and the bluetooth connection to audio speaker have wheezing.

    I ALSO just updated my brand new iphone 6 to 8.0.2, and I ALSO had my cellular service BRICKED.
    All I get on the signal meter is Verizon 1x.  Every so often 3G would popup and you could send a text (no calls though) but it's gone in seconds. So  I can't send texts or make phone calls.
    This phone worked immediately before the update and stopped working immediately after the update.
    My neighbor has a iphone 5S. He updated to 8.0.2 lat week and had no problems UNTIL just this morning, when his phone stopped working - no cellular voice or data. He downgraded back to ios 8.0 but his cellular service never came back.
    Called verizon - was told there were no service outages and then I got transferred to tech team.
    Tech team had do all the Apple troubleshooting steps but nothing more. So they said "take it back."
    So this BRAND NEW iPhone 6 phone is BRICKED because of iOS 8.0.2.
    Thanks Apple!

  • My ipad 2 won't hold a charge after installing ios 7

    I use the authentic Apple charger and my ipad 2 won't hold a charge after installing ios 7. What is the fix for this miserable wasteful upgrade that made all of our iPads unusable ! I Shut off location, turned off  brightness, shut down and  took off apps.  WHAT NOW for my iPad ?

    Batteries eventually fail, and it sounds like that's happened with your iPad. You'll need to take or send it Apple to get the battery replaced. See:

  • After installing iOS 8.0.2, I thought it would resolve my problems on my iPad, still can't play some of my games, they won't open. HELP

    Some of my games will not play after installing ios 8 & ios 8.0.2. I go to open Royal envoy and it just shuts down. Any ideas. Thanks

    Try the reset below. If that doesn't work contact the game developer for a IOS 8 update.. Two of my games didn't open and I've already recieved updates and the games work fine.
    Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own.

  • After installing iOS 8 for my iPad all my PDF files in iBooks disappeared.

    After installing iOS 8 for my iPad Air, all my PDF files in iBooks disappeared.

    Did you back these books up to your computer before updating to iOS 8? It is always suggested that you back everything up before updating, so if something goes wrong, you can easily put them back on.
    You should just be able to plug the device into the computer you sync to and they should sync as long as you have "Sync Books" ticked in the books section.

  • After install iOS 8.1.2 no Bluetooth connection could be made between iphone 6  and/or ipad and/or iPhone 4s

    After install iOS 8.1.2 no Bluetooth connection could be made between iphone 6  and/or ipad and/or iPhone 4s

    The iPhone is not designed to pair with an iPad (except for personal hotspot if your cellular plan allows it) or with another iPhone. What is it that you are trying to do? There are a number of features such as Handoff, Keynote Remote, etc that require Bluetooth to be on but the devices are not paired. See Bluetooth: Why can't I pair my iPhone or iPad with my computer?

  • Why after installing iOS 7 my iPad started to reboot by itself, my battery lost autonomy and the iPad got slowwwwwwer?

    Why after installing iOS 7 my iPad started to reboot by itself, my battery lost autonomy and the iPad got slowwwwwwer?

    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • After installing iOS 5, my ipad 2 will not accept my access code and has locked me out

    after installing iOS 5, my ipad 2 will not accept my access code and has locked me out.  Any ideas?

    I don't know if your symptoms are the same as mine, but my problem is the same. Specifically:
    My update seemed to go fine, but I noticed that items in Notification Center were not current or missing, as compared to the iPhone. Also, when iTunes saw the iPad without it being connected by cable, the portion of the iTunes screen that displayed the OS status was blank, and it told me that I had to connect physically to update. When I did, iTunes confirmed that iOS 5 was indeed installed and current.
    With this, I decided to shut down the iPad completely, and restart it. When it came back up, the lock screen had changed. I now get a full keyboard (not just a number pad). When I attempt to enter my 4-digit passcode (and I know I'm entering the correctone), the iPad won't take it. Now it's completely locked and I can't access it.
    The odd thing is the way the screen changed to display a full keyboard on the lock screen. This didn't happen to the iPhone.
    All devices are running the current versions of everything.

    After installing iOS 8 on my MacBook Pro I've been unable to backup my laptop to Time Machine - any advise?

    I would really like to know how you managed to do that seeing as how the MBP is not capable of running iOS
    iOS is only for mobile devices such as iPhones, iPads and iPods
    The MBP uses OS X instead
    Maybe once you get your story straight we can help you
