Ipad 2 no longer working due to ios7

My first post got removed by Apple Police.
It appears apple do not allow anyone to revert to ios 6 at the moment, are there any plans to change this or updates coming to fix the slow running, slow charging and other issues. While you will appreciate it is nice to update equipment on a regular basis my ipad 2 64gb wifi & cell was a lot of money to my budget and ios 7 has effectively rendered it useless in comparison to its former and original condition, how long isthe new ipad 5 going to maintain its worth?

Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)
Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings (You will not lose any data but it will reset the settings in your Settings app.)
Backup, Connect to iTunes and restore. This will download and clean install iOS7. After it finishes, walk through the setup and restore from backup when prompted.

  • Hello, I've updated the iPhone I have got I have a problem I hope you respond to some of the applications no longer work, such as the safari and skype and many applications are no longer working with the ios7.0.4

    Hello, I've updated the iPhone I have got I have a problem I hope you respond to some of the applications no longer work, such as the safari and skype and many applications are no longer working with the ios7.0.4

    Standard troubleshooting...
    1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    3. Remove apps from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
    - Press the home button when done.
    4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
    5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

  • IPad app no long works after upgrading to iOS 7.1.1

    iPad app no long works after upgrading to iOS 7.1.1

    Did you try deleting then reinstalling the app?  Sometimes developers will need to update their apps for compatibility.  If it still doesn't work after reinstalling, wait a few days to see if an app update becomes available.

  • My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

    My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • The home button on my iPad is no longer working.  To get to a new app I have to turn off the iPad and restart it.

    The home button on my iPad is no longer working.  To get to a new screen or App I have to turn the iPad off and then restart it.

    Try calibrating the home button and see if that works. If it doesn't, you could also try restoring with iTunes. Try this first.
    Calibrate the home button
    1. Open a stock iOS app, such as Contacts
    2. Press & hold the sleep/wake button at the top of your device until the red slider control appears.
    3. Immediately release the sleep/wake button and press & hold the home button. Hold until the red slider disappears.

  • How do i get refunded for the apps that no longer work due to the fact i cant upgrade my phone?

    how do i get refunded for the apps that i purchased that no longer work due to the fact i cant upgrade my 3.1.3 iphone

    I have never bought an app but on all other things Apple  somewhere has in tiny print the system requirements for running the software.  If you're going to live in the world of outdated technology the way I do, you will quickly learn to always read system requirements.
    iTunes Customer Service Contact - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html - Apple states all sales are final, but you can always try.

  • After downloading iOS 8.1.1 the apple apps on my iPad 2 no longer work.  Anyone else having this issue

    after downloading ios 8.1.1, my apple apps no longer work.  Anyone else seeing this?

    It might fix corrupted apps, but now you have the Settings app freezing on you. At this point, I would close every app in the multitaski g display and then reset the iPad again in the manner in which Ralph described above.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it. Close every app this way. If you have never done this before, it can take a few minutes to close them all if you have a bunch apps in the display.
    Next, 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • IPad Accessory no longer working since ios7.1

    Hello,
    I have been using Philips Car TV's to connect to my iPad2 (http://www.usa.philips.com/content/B2C/en_US/product-catalog/PV9002I_37.html).
    It was working fine until I upgraded to ios7.1. Before I was able to mirror any video to the 9inch TV's but I do not have this option anymore. I only get the sound out of from the TV
    It must be the iOS since it is working fine with the iPod4 on iOs 6.x

    Both of those apps show that they were updated on 10th March 2014.   Have you tried updating your version via the AppStore on your phone ?

  • IPhone 4s email sending no longer works after installing ios7

    Installed ios7 on my iPhone 4s and now email is completely fouled up. I have deleted all accounts and reset them, have turned off and restarted my phone severeal times, Oddly enough I can receive email, but when I try to answer I get the message "Cannot send mail - the recipient was rejected by the server". I have checked all of my settings and they are correct (use the same settings on my computer and iPad, which work fine).  Same problem when I try to move messages to trash - I get the message "Unable to move message".

    Try switching the "Block cookies" setting in Safari from "Always" to "From third parties and advertisers" and then reboot.  This worked for me without having to reload iOS7 or reset all settings. Good luck. 

  • IPad alarm no longer working properly

    I have an iPad and have been having problems with alarms for severall months now.  I have a few different alarms set for different reasons and the first one to go off in the morning is sometimes 4 minutes late and sometimes as long as 30 minutes late.
    I tried also using different apps, reinstalling, restoring from backup and deleting all alarms and resetting new ones.
    Nothing works.  Once the ipad is in use, though, during the day, the alarms work ok.  It is when in sleep mode in the night that it fails.  It used to work for the last year or two during the night, so I am not sure what has happened.
    Has anyone had this problem on the ipad or know of a solution?
    Thank you.

    Googled and googled, but didn't find anything about it
    Hope someone else can help you
    Good luck!

  • My mail account on ipad 2 no longer works..seems frozen and the settings button is also not working

    My I pad 2 was working great until tonight when I went to get mail...nothing..it was like it wasn't even searching, frozen..so I went to settings and that too was not working when I checked on mail, contacts..nothing would hightlight or work..all the rest of the settings were responsive.

    Try resetting the iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears and then let go of the buttons. Ignore the red slider bar.
    You can try this as well if the reset doesn't work. Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you 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 to close the apps. 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.
