Ipad 2 bricks after upgrading to iOS 7.0.6

Was notified about update to iPad 2 iOS 7.0.6, did the update and the iPad 2 keeps starting running for a moment or 2 and then goes to the apple logo screen when I try to sync in iTunes it won't sync because it keeps going through this cycle.  It starts to sync then it can't find the iPad.

  • HT4085 i tried to fix screen rotation on my ipad 2 after upgrading to ios 7.  did the lock / unlock button, the on/off and even reset to factory settings... nothing works... do not know what to do... any suggestions?

    i tried to fix screen rotation on my ipad 2 after upgrading to ios 7.  did the lock / unlock button, the on/off and even reset to factory settings... nothing works... do not know what to do... any suggestions?

    When you reset to factory settings, did you restore as new or did you restore from a backup? If you restored from a backup, you could try restoring as new and don't use the backup. If you do that, you will lose all of your data, but you can download or sync all of your content back to the iPad.
    You could also try resetting all settings before your restore as new. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. You will have to re enter all device settings again.
    And of course the possibility does exist that the iPad has developed a hardware problem that is causing the rotation issue and only a visit to an Apple Store could determine that for sure.

  • You Tube App Missing on iPad 2 After Upgrade to iOS 5

    I have an iPad 2 that I purchased from a US Apple store in May 2011.  After upgrading to iOS 5 the You Tube app is missing.  How can I reinstall it?

    That is one of the standard apps that is not deletable.  So it is probably there somewhere.
    Check setting, general, restrictions, and make sure you didnt turn that on by accident.
    Then goto the searchlight screen, and type in you tube, and if the app is on the pad, it will find it.
    If restrictions are not on, and if searchlight does not find the app, do a full reboot,
    If still no joy, do a restore from backup. 
    But check restrictions first.

    I upgraded my iPad to iOS 5.1.1 last night.   Ever since then, it keeps losing the wifi connection.  My laptop, ipod and iphone are not losing any connectivity with the wifi, nor has this been a problem with the iPad prior to upgrading the iOS.

  • Cannot play videos in my iPad Air after upgrading to iOS 8.0.2

    Hello there,
    After upgrading my iPad Air to iOS 8.0.2 I can no longer play videos in any application, not even in Apple's stock apps.
    Is anybody else experimenting this issue?

    (A) Try reset iPad
    Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together until you see the Apple Logo.
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Close all apps in the multi-task window
    1.Double-click the Home button.
    2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
    3. Preview will fly off the screen.

  • Issues With iPad mini after upgrading to iOS 8.1.2......

    WWish I'd checked the forums first, but I upgraded to 8.1.2. A few days ago and have had nothing but issues.
    FIrst -- it takes twice to three times as long to boot up my device.
               After the apple logo disappears, the screen is just black for the longest time
               Then eventually I hear a faint "DING" and the screen eventually gets lighter but this takes about 5-6 minutes
               Haven't had time to check the new manual.... Is this normal?
    second -- Lots of freeze ups doing any variety of functions
    third -- When tapping to diwnload a WORD attachment in an e-mail.... the circle graph loads properly but the document never opens when tapped.
               I'm not sure which is the most frustrating, plus there's no way to TURN OFF that dorm Emoji Keyboard which just gets in my way far too often!!
    any body have any work around for any of these???
    i No longer love my iPad...that's for sure.

    How do you know some stop halfway and others barely start? What are you seeing? While it is possible an app is not compatible with iOS 8.1.2, but I doubt it. If it was working with iOS 8, then it will work with 8.1.2. Try signing out of the App Store and sign back in again.

  • IPod touch 4,1 bricked after upgrading to iOS 6.0 and then 6.0.1.

    Hi all
    I have an iPod touch 4th generation, 8GB. The other week I installed the new iOS 6.0 software update, from 5.1.1. after installing and rebooting the iPod just when black, I have assumed that it's been bricked, but how? It just stays black, sometimes it'll reboot, but then go black again, sometimes it'll do the infinite loop of death! Then I force it into Recovery mode, clicked Restore and after iTunes extracing the IPSW, it came back with error -1 ????? So I put it into DFU mode, then iTunes showed that iOS 6.0.1 was released. iTunes downloaded it, i put it into DFU mode and then restore to the new 6.0.1, and then everything goes well, untill it does the same as before, when I upgraded to 6.0?
    I know I can't downgrade back to 5.1.1, Apple had stopped signing old ipsws, but I do however have my previously saved SHSH blobs, I can patch them onto my 5.1.1 ipsw, but I don't know weather that's illegal or not. SO, basically, my iPod is unusable.
    Troubleshooting - what I've done:
    -I've deleted the 6.0 and 6.0.1 and being promted to download them again in iTunes, still didn't work
    -I've tried reinstalling iTunes, current version 10.7, I run weekly Apple Software updates to get the lastest
    -I've tried using different USB cords, Apple 30-pin connector cords, don't know if that was necessary
    What Haven't done:
    -Never Jailbroken this iPod
    -Never moderated, read, write or execute any iPod software or any of the Raw system files
    My iPod was just fine before all this crap happened, I depend on it for everything, although the Capacity isin't great, and the RAM is just ****, please someone help :'(

    Error 1 or -1
    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. Note the article includes :"the device may need service".:

  • No service on IPad 2 after upgrade to IOS 8. Waited a month to try it. A restart brings connectivity back for a while. If the iPad 2 was too old to receive this upgrade it should have been excluded from it.

    Upgraded my iPad 2 to IOS 8. Waited a month as I saw all the problems other users were having. Now I am with them. No service. Connectivity restored only after a restart . These are necessary frequently. Last week I had a fully functioning iPad now I do not.
    If the IPad 2 was not capable of handling the upgrade it should have been excluded. I have read the fixes, tried some, apprehensive about trying others. Why should the customers have to work to fix an upgrade meant to improve performance?
    Any news on an IOS fix?
    Any solutions other than wiping out  everything and starting over? Have seen that several times. Backing up, wiping clean, refreshing, restoring...why do we have to struggle?
    i am spending way too much time trying to get my iPad back to what I had. I am sure the genius bar is packed with iphone 6 users and the new edition iPads. No room for folks with "old" ones. And if I try something and fail then I have nothing at all.
    Hoping for a "fix" from Apple as well as any ideas.

    Hello, ik31.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.  
    If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it

  • YouTube Videos and others won't play on iPad mini after upgrade to iOS 7.0.2, any suggestions?

    I upgraded my iPad mini to the iOS 7.0.2 software and now videos (YouTube, USA Today, etc) won't play.  I have already done a restart (holding down the menu button and on button) and eern after restart, videos won't play.  Any suggestions?

    when u do a restore it deletes off everything on the device, including software. then it reinstalls the software from a new download package. this will ensure ur device isnt getting the same glitch in its system that ur current software has if that is the issue. when u restore from the backup u made AFTER uve done the 'restore ipad' that will put all of ur stuff back onto the ipad. i would suggest deleting off the youtube app b4 doing the back up and then readding it after the restore and restore from back up phases. if all of that doesnt work, youtube is the one with the problem and u should contact them.

  • IPad Air after upgrade to ios 8 continue to drop WiFi connection

    On September 19, I upgrade my ipad air to ios 8, and it had been dropping Wifi connection ever since.  I was browsing using Chrome and next thing the browser hang up; then error message informed me to no network connection.  By the way, my network was strong (5 bars), because I was streaming to my Roku in HD without any issues.  At the same time, my Airplay do not want to stream the content in full screen either. It only mirror what have see on my ipad, not allow me to go full screen on TV.  I hoped Apple will step up and correct this issue as soon as possible; I miss the good old day of reliable upgrade from Apple.

    Yes, and hopeful 8.1.1 will help.  It's supposedly in beta testing.

  • Itunes does not recognize IPAD 3 after upgrading to IOS 6.

    After updating my IPAD 3 to IOS 6, Itunes does not recognize my IPAD 3.  What can I do to fix this issue?

    I have a similar problem with the iPhone. Tried everything you can think of and then some. There is apparently some devastating bug 7.6 introduced into normal USB device recognition. I've been able to force the phone into recovery mode; the boot recovery USB driver does still work. Restoring the phone every time I need to sync is both scary and time-consuming.

  • I lost my past entries on ipad mini after upgrading to ios 7?

    Can someone help, please? Before the upgrade my ical events (7 different calendars) synched fine across MacBook Pro, Iphone and Ipad Mini via Icloud. The events are still on Iclous, is Macbook and Iphone 5 but Ipad only synched back about 2 weeks! This is a real problem, if I need to double check about a past appointment with a client, refer to our last meeting or so on... I've checked All iCloud on my Ipad but nothing seems to get back the old data.

    when u do a restore it deletes off everything on the device, including software. then it reinstalls the software from a new download package. this will ensure ur device isnt getting the same glitch in its system that ur current software has if that is the issue. when u restore from the backup u made AFTER uve done the 'restore ipad' that will put all of ur stuff back onto the ipad. i would suggest deleting off the youtube app b4 doing the back up and then readding it after the restore and restore from back up phases. if all of that doesnt work, youtube is the one with the problem and u should contact them.
