IPad 2 very slow downloading. Defrag it? Reboot? If so how?, iPad 2 very slow downloading. Defrag it? Reboot? If so how?

iPad 2 suddenly very slow on Internet. What could cause this & what can I do.

Try basic troubleshooting and see if it helps.
Quit all apps completely and restart 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. Reboot the iPad.
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.
Do this as well. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.

Other users have reported this very same issue after updating their iPads. You are using the original iPad according to your profile and those devices seem to be the more adversely affected devices. You can try the basic things and see if any of this helps.

If none of those things help, you can always try restoring your iPad. I have restored mine with some success, but I still have issues that I hope will be resolved soon.
An update to the iOS has been announced and it is in Beta now. Hopefully it will be released to all users soon.

Try This...

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.

This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.

Very very slow to download gmail in mail APP iPad

As I wrote in the title, in the last days, from when I updated iOS 7.04, I've some problem with the mail app in iPad 3rd gen.
With the account gmail: it's very very very slow to download the emails.
First of all, I reset the iPad, but nothing.
So, I deleted the gmail account and set up it again... but nothing.
So, what's the problem: Gmail? Mail APP in iOS 7.04? Both? And how can I resolved it?
Thank you very much for yours replay. Best regards.

My ipad is very slow. Already rebooted it and still has the problem.

I have an ipad 3 and istalled Ios6 three weeks ago. It had no performance problem. Today, the ipad is running slow. When typing, it takes a while until the letters fo to the text boxes. When using intensive touch screen apps, it takes 2 sseconds to move something. Even typing the access password, it slows down. I already rebooted it, closed evry app but it continues to underperform. It's really very slow and cant be used in any app.

Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

It is hardly Apple's fault that Epson can't/won't update their driver, but at least Epson suggest that you use the Gutenprint driver, which in any case is far better that what Epson offer.
You can get it here:
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/
You can download the latest version from here:

Have you downloaded the recent Apple update to Epson drivers?

Ipad and exchange 2003 downloads all email every time and is very slow. We get "no sender" dated 1/1/70 during process.

Ipad has become very slow to sync with exchange 2003. suspect IOS releases have IPad beyond older exchange software but need to understand why sync email is so slow and seems to re-download entire mailbox every time sync runs. Android phones do not have the issue, only ipad. ipad are up do date, mix of 1,2 and new

i have two iPads running different mail, one is my work gmail, one my personal mail. Upgraded my personal mini iPad to iOS 7.1.2 and started getting emails dated 1/1/1970, no sender no content coming I daily, the disappear after a few seconds.
on my other work iPad I haven't upgraded yet am still on iOS 7 but it stopped syncing my email on Friday. I generated a new google password and entered it and when my mail came in there were many emails dated 1/1/1970 with no sender or content, again they disappeared a few seconds later.
What's going on with the mail?

Very Slow Downloading from iTunes on iPad Mini

Hello:
Having just spent almost £550 on a wifi & cellular 64 gb iPad mini, I thought I was getting something that was state of the art !
However, I discover that the very first movie I pay for and want to download using my wifi connection from iTunes simply will not download on to my iPad mini in anything that one would expect to be a reasonable time. As I write it is Sunday evening and the iTunes download indicator is telling me it will be over 36 hours until I finish downloading this 3 gb movie !
Using the same wifi connection and within a few minutes after giving up with the iPad mini I am able to download the exact same movie on to my MacBook Air in under 30 minutes.
So, I conclude this has nothing to do with the my wifi download speed or anthing else, other than the fact that the iPad mini connection simply does not work at anything approximating to an acceptable standard.
The reason I have purchased the 64 gb iPad mini is so that I can download movies and watch them when travelling. It looks like this is not going to be possible if it is going to take hours and hours to download each movie !
So, other than some kind of self-administered help (which I would be happy to hear about if anybody has solved this problem for themselves), and after having spent a great deal of money on an item which is advertised as being iTunes compatible and being sold as something to watch tv and movies on, I wonder if Apple has yet twigged this glaring inadequacy and are thinking of doing something about it ?
After all, I have spent a lot of money on something that is not doing what I had expected it to do and which it is advertised as being able to do.
Please help me out, Apple, or I might have to return this to you and ask for my money back. Or go to Trading Standards about misleading advertising ? I mean it is wifi, it has iTunes, it has Videos - but I can't really use them in any acceptable way. Why would I spend all that money for something that doesn't do what it says on the can ?
Thanks.
Chris

Ipad mini with retina display has really slow and laggy streaming but very high download speed

I just got my ipad mini with retina display yesterday. The regular internet works fine as far as I can tell. I tried streaming video from watch espn, netflix, and youtube, and all three apps were so slow I couldn't watch anything. I have a high download speed too, it is 15 Mbps. I tried turning off the QOS engine in my router, and my download speed was up to 30 Mbps, and I still had the same terrible streaming quality. I tried changing the DNS as well, and this did nothing. I tried doing all the restarting and other "quick fixes," and nothing seems to work. Can anybody help me?

I requested your post be moved to the iPad forum. This is the Mac Mini desktop forum

Very slow download speed on ipad 2

Okay folks I need your help. I have just installed an Airport Extreme (newest model) wirless router and a new Motorola Sufboard modem and my interenet download speed is pretty good on the pc (23-25 Mbps). However, when I run the speed test on my ipad 2 it is pathetic (.14 - .18 Mbps). My iphone 4 is getting about the same download speed as well. I have reset all devices, tried forgetting the network and then signing on again, but nothing helps. What could be causing the slow download speed on the Apple products?

Okay I got it. I went into the Airport Utility and changed the channel selection from automatic to manual and then I changed the channel to something different. There are a lot of house in my neigborhood and I guess the default channel 6 was just way over crowded. Just did another test on my iphone4 and got a download speed of 18.33 Mbps. The ipad2 yielded a new speed of 24.24 Mbps. Much better now. Thanks!

Thanks

WHat does the error say? Is there an error code?

Using iPad, iPod and iPhone with ATT uVerse. All devises are downloading at the correct speed - 10-12 mbps. Macbook pro, however, is very slow - 2-4 mbps. Can someone suggest the nature of the problem?

Reason for Macbook Pro super slow download speeds, when all other Apple devices in the house are downloading correctly. I am not attempting to use multiple devices at the same time. What could be the problem with the Macbook Pro?

Resetting SMC could solve the problem.
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
And you need to install more RAM, I think.

Since downloading i0s 8 the mail function on iPad is very slow and blocks writing new messages when it 'checks for new mail'

Problems with speed of email and writing emails because when iPad is checking for mail it prevents writing emails unlike the previous software version.
Will this be fixed in future software updates.

I wasn't sure how to troubleshoot it. Tried to see if I could revert to i0S 7 but that is no longer possible. I received the i0S 8.1 update yesterday - installed that in the hope it would fix the issues - shut down iPad afterwards - left it for a while but same issues remain. Makes using the email a pain whereas it used to be seamless. Any suggestions?
