IPad 1 updates makes apps run slower and crash

Hello everyone,
I have 34 updates in the app store until now, i always updated everything to the latest but noticed things are getting slower and very crashy, the updates are obtimized for newer ipads so likewise it gets slower on the old ipad, i dunno why it notifies an ipad one user to update?? Its not for me!
So, should i keep updating apps?? Sometimes i think that its intended by apple to get old ipads not to work properly to get me think about a new ipad, well devices like ipad is not something to discard after a while you know, i will stick with it until it burns or somethin :P

As far as I know - you can't update apps if they are for the new iOS only. The apps shouldn't update and you should get a message that the updates will not work on your iOS.
Tap on app icon that needs to be updated and read the description first. Don't tap on "Update". Read the requirements first. If the primary reason for the update is that it is optimized for iOS 6, then don't update it - even it even can be updated that is.
Some basic troubleshooting might help when the iPad gets "crashy". Try these and see if they help.
Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad and make a fresh start. 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. Restart the iPad.
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.
Or try this ....Reboot 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.

After installing IOS5 my iPad runs slower and crashes often when I have safari or any application opened. Is apple working on fixing this issue? is it happening to most of you or just me?

I appreciate any information you can provide. Using this device is getting annoying !

I'm using mine right now to answer you and I've not had the issues you are having. Have you tried a Restore from Backup?

Mac running slow and crashing

Lately, my mac has been running slow, freezing, restarting, and this is new...
I have a lot of things in imovie... so I presume it might be that, but this is ridiculous! It is constantlly beachballin'! How do I make my Mac perform like it did when I first had it!

My ipod touch 4g has been running really slow, lagging, and a ton of apps are running slow and crashing, does anyone know what's wrong?

Its not jailbroken, does anyone know whats wrong?

Did you try to reset the device by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not work, set it up as new device, explained here:

IPhone 4 keyboard freeze, runs slow and crashes - is there a fix?

Not been able to use my iPhone 4 for over a week now originally due to the screen freezing on "enter passcode" page. The probelm has escalated to keyboard and generally unable to use the handset in any reliable way. Please point me in the right direction to fixing this.
Symptoms and log of activities in chronological order;
- the arrow freezes when "slide to unlock". This would persist over a period of time (a day to 7-8 days), first incident around April. After many manual resets, able to access without the arrow freezing. Observed that this kept happening after the iPhone has been switched off.
- the above problem returned last week after the device was switched off then back on. This time, the arrow freezed for 15-30 seconds then "enter passcode" page appeared. The keyboard that appears is unresponsive so nothing happens when you press the buttons. The text entry cursor does not blink. iPhone eventually crashes with a spinning loading sign on freeze.
- cannot switch off phone, unless with hard reset by holding the home + on/off buttons. - the same issue returns immediately.
- restoring iPhone (first time) - required to update to IOS 5.1.1. Still the problem persists
- appointment with Genius bar - explained the problem. Does not take a look at the handset once but offers a replacement at a cost.
- Suspect it might be a glitch rather than a hardware damage (it's only under 8 months old) so attempts another restore. This time, set up/configure screen comes up on the device. Chooses not to set passcode. Screen is responsive, able to choose launguage, country etc... Hope returns, it actually seems to be working. Slide to unlock, takes 15-30 seconds but does unlock. Able to open and delete emails and SMS texts. Apps such as facebook seems to be working although generally everything is slow.
- HOWEVER, keyboard across all apps unresponsive and text entry cursor does not blink. The apps crashes then returns to home screen.
- Deleted emoji international keyboard in the hope that the keyboard problem would go away.
- After a number of crashes, the screen is black. The Backlight of the screen is on but unable to switch off or do hard reset.
From deduction, the problem seems to be with the keyboard across all apps.
Has anyone had similar problems and did you find any fixes?
I really don't want to have to pay for another replacement so please please, do share your knowledge. Thank you

Hi linkslice,
Funny you say that... the iPhone's audio out was playing up, not recognising the headphone. I switched the iPhone off to shine some light down it to see if something had gone down it and that's how the problem of rebooting itself started.
I took it into Apple store yesterday to the Genius bar and they carried out a few tests. They suspected it to be a software issue but the diagnostic returned clean so uploaded new firmware. The problem still persisted so they had to look inside. He returned 10 mins later with the following results; all looked fine on the inside, once put back together, the screen was not responsive and rebooting continuously. They couldn't figure out what was wrong with it so I've now got a replacement handset which is working fine after a restore from backup.
I suggest you take it into the store to have it looked at. Let us know if there was a solution to yours.
Thanks all for your help.

New OS system safari now running slow and crashing repeatedly

Can someone please tell me why my Macbook Air running Safari with just 3 windows open in Safari is now running incredibly slow, barely downloading either java or flash text and invariably causing it to crash with the spinning rainbow appearing almost every 2 minutes.
I am very inept when it comes to computers but cannot believe the new system would cause such problems.
Solutions all helpful.
Thanks,
Sam

Hi erastyle,
Actually the Licensing information for the package is missing hence it is not launching any applications. You need to Reserialize the products using APTEE which you can find it on the Machine where you have created the package. If you dont have the access to that Machine then please download and install Creative Cloud Packager and it will download APTEE in the below mentioned location.
Windows:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\CCP\utilities
Once downloaded please follow this KB article to use the Tool.

Since loading Lion, I've experienced much more instability than Snow Leopard. In particular, Mail crashes with regularity, full-screen apps seem to run slower and show the beach ball more often for longer, etc. I'm disappointed with the performance. Any

Since loading Lion, I've experienced much more instability than Snow Leopard. In particular, Mail crashes with regularity, full-screen apps seem to run slower and show the beach ball more often for longer, etc. I love the features, but I'm disappointed with the performance. Any help coming from Apple? I've been sending them so many reports after crashes, that their file must be full!

Summoning max. courage, I did what you advised. Here is the result. What does this tell you? My Lion 7.2 (mid 2011 iMac) has several annoying glitches (which I have so far tolerated through gritted teeth) but none that have actually stopped me working.
BTW, I see several items involving CleanMyMac which I did not know I had. It is generally villified as a trouble-maker. Spotlight can't find an app. or a utility of that name. How can I get rid of what's there please? Just delete?

Why are my iPhone 4S and iPad 2 so slow, and crashes after the iOS 8 updates?

Even after the iOS 8.0.2 update, both my iPhone 4S and my iPad 2 are very slow to respond to the touchscreen. Some of my apps crash. Safari is very slow. Everything about the iPhone 4S and my iPad 2 are just overall slow, and sometimes unresponsive. I feel like I am using one of the first android touchscreen phones and tablets. They do not any longer feel like an Apple product. I wish I had never updated.

Also forgot to mention about the syncing with iTunes. Each morning, I have to literally turn off and then turn back on the 4S iPhone and the iPad 2 to get them to be seen by iTunes and sync. Yes, I am using the updated 11.4 iTunes on my iMac.

I updated my iPod touch 4g 64gb to iOS 6.1 and now it's been very slow, safari keeps crashing, apps being very slow and crashing ? Can anyone help ?

My iPad first generation is slow and crashing

MY first generation iPad is very slow and crashes. I have closed all apps, erased cookies, rebooted, etc. i am only using 2.2 gb of 64. Help!

If you have performed all of the basic troubleshooting steps that you have indicated, you should probably backup your iPad, restore to factory settings and then restore the backup to the iPad. If that doesn't help, then restore as new and see if that helps.
You will obviously lose all data when you restore as new, but you can download or sync all of your content back to the device and take it slowly and methodically reloading yoyr content and see if you can pin down one particular app that is causing problems, if any at all.
If that still doesn't help, make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask for those help. I understand that have ways of restoring devices that are a bit more involved than what we as users can do with iTunes.

I recently upgraded to Lion and i find that my computer is running slow and applications are crashing. For example I have Word 2011 for Mac and it crashes all the time I end up losing my work. It often happens when I'm in notebook trying to record.

i recently upgraded to Lion and i find that my computer is running slow and applications are crashing. For example I have Word 2011 for Mac and it crashes all the time I end up losing my work. It often happens when I'm in class using notebook and when I press record my computer starts thinking and it freezes.
Also, I feel that it overheats often and my battery runs out pretty quickly. I had the macbook (black) and this never happened before. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if there is something with my computer.I bought my computer summer 2010, I don't think this should be happening. Please Help......

This is exactly what keeps happening to mine too. I was at a conference taking notes, and I was
using the Notebook template, and doing some audio recording simultaneously. About 3 hours into the conference (not consistently recording, but on and off with the sessions) my file wouldn't save anymore, saying something like "File cannot be modified while in use with another program" and "Invalid file name" when I would go back into my folder to look for it). I tried installing some updates from Microsoft, and when I restarted, I was at least able to open my old notes again, and so far it looks like the audio was working. However, today at the conference, the same thing happened again, but I wasn't actively recording any audio (though after I had copy and pasted my second file of notes into the original, I went back to using it after re-naming it).
Does the crash happen to you under similar cirucumstances? The update might help a little, but it is definitely not the solution. Does anyone have any solutions? Lion shouldn't be this buggy... I moved to Mac to get away from the garbage of bugs and compatibility issues...

My ipod 4g is running slow and doesn't open some apps what should I do ?

my ipod 4g is running slow and doesn't open some apps and close the when i am working on them what should I do ?

Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
Next try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
