IPad 4 keeps freezing since iOS 7

I have updated my iPad 4 (Wifi 64GB) on the 21st September 2013 to iOS 7 (previous version iOS 6.1.3) and since running iOS 7 my iPad 4 faces every 10 second a complete freeze whereby i cant use the iPad. I did a restore trying to rollback to iOS 6.1.3 but iOS 6 signature got canceled since 21st September.
I have done a clean restore (DFU mode) and have not restored it with any of my apps and files. (Clean fresh restore) and i still face the same issue with complete freeze where I have to restart my iPad 4 and after 10 seconds it freezes again.
Please, anyone with same or similar issues that could provide me with any pointers on how to resolve this as I desperately need my iPad to work again.
Any help is appreciated.

IPad 4 keeps freezing on iOS 7 please help

iPad 4 keeps freezing on iOS 7 please help.

Try to reset your device. The reset can help cure some odd issues that can crop up.
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

IPad screen keeps enlarging since iOS upgrade, no way to control it

Since upgrade to ios 5.1, iPad 1 screen size keeps enlarging by around 5 to 10 percent, so that most of screen is hidden from view/ inaccessible, no apparent way to control it.to reset, I have to turn iPad off and on again. For example, as I type this, only top 2 mm of space bar is accessible making typing a royal pain. Any suggestions for how to control it?

Triple tap your home button and your screen should return to normal size.

IPad 4 keeps freezing

My IPad 4 keeps freezing when playing games. I have no problem playing these games before. I erased all and reconfigured as new device - same problem . I even upgraded to iOS 7.1.2 didn't solve. I can run YouTube and Safari w/o a problem. It would freeze up when playing a single game.

Why does my Ipad screen keep freezing even after rebooting

My ipad screen keeps freezing and remains stuck. So in the last hour this has happened 3 times after hard "reboots". Can someone explain whats going on? Uwas not downloading anything ..only looking at Facebook.

Hello, Nina1711.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device. Test the responsiveness of the iPad after processing these steps. If the issue persists, check to make sure you have space available on the iPad in Settings/General/About. If there is no space available you may want to remove unwanted Apps or media as this can cause the unit to become unresponsive. If these steps have been processed with the issue persisting, you will need to restore the device. Make sure to backup the device prior to restoring.

Hello there Lsu70,
If your app is rendering the iPad unresponsive, I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in this article to help get that resolved, named:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
Start with these steps, but there are additional things to do if these do not resolve the issue:
Follow the steps below and test the app after each step.Restart the app
Close the app and open it again.Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.Update your device software and your apps
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
Update your apps:
Open the App Store and tap Updates.
If updates are available, tap Update All.
If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Ipad 2 keeps freezing - hardware problem?

I have an iPad 2 (Model MC979LL/A) running IOS Version 7.11 (11D201) and the screen keeps freezing.
I have pretty much exhausted all the good advice regarding hard resets with the two buttons, resetting from settings, and I have used iTunes to do multiple restores both automatically and manually (with & without Recovery Mode) from the .ipsw download for Version 7.11. No matter what I do, the screen will freeze within 2 minutes, if not sooner.
Is there a likely hardware issue that might be the cause of all this? The battery seems to keep it's charge. Because it freezes I haven't been able to really use it, so the battery is in the 98% to 100% range. When it freezes, the screen doesn't go black. It just freezes wherever it is, and buttons are unresponsive.
Is it possible that the Versions 7 and above have put a strain on some component that now causes a freeze up, or what component would be likely to cause something like this over time? Any techs out there that might have a likely guess?
I don't think it's a software issue, but I could be wrong. Nothing on the iPad is important, and it was given to me by someone that was having the same problems, so I'm not adverse to taking it apart. Maybe I'll get lucky. If I "brick it", no loss.
Thanks
Gary

Since it appeared to be a hardware issue, I figured I would take a chance and open the iPad up.
Upon opening, I saw two similar connectors, one for the battery and one for the lcd screen.
I disconnected them, cleaned them, and reseated them, figuring it might make a difference. But it didn't.
After putting everything back together, the ipad still froze exactly like before after 2 minutes. At least
I didn't make it worse!
So I started to think that this screen freezing problem seems to have gotten worse since the seasonal
change in weather has gotten progressively warmer here in Pennsylvania from February to June, and that
it would be interesting to put the iPad in the freezer for 15 minutes and see if cooling the iPad improves it's
performance.
It did! After 15 minutes in my freezer, the iPad was able to respond properly for 26 minutes before the screen "froze".
Is this because there is a component that is heating up inside, and cooling the iPad slows down that process,
OR
is the touchscreen more capable of "distinguishing" my warm fingers when the iPad is generally cooler?
All thoughts welcome.

Ipad2 facetime keeps freezing since update ios8.i tried everything

EEver since loading new ios8 software my wife and my ipad2 keeps freezing up on facetime.Keeps saying poor internet connection and camera freezes.I tried everything and my internet provider sent new modem with router built in.Same results.Any ideas or is this an apple problem?

I went to the Apple Store today and the Genius Bar people have confirmed that the problem exist. They even tried to restore as new too but the problem still arise. As they have confirmed that this is a software issue, they are going to pass these details to the software engineering department.
So for now, it looks like we are going to have a broken rear facetime camera

Trying to resore iPad and keeps freezing up

My original iPad is about 3 or 4 years old and recently I purchased an iPad 2 and synced both up. Then the iPad 2 was freezing up saying I didn't have enough iCloud storage. So for 20 dollars I purchased some. Now the iPad 1 won't hold a charge and when I was told it may be software issues and to restore the iPad under settings and hit restore all, when I do it just freezes and I have to turn off and restart. Any suggestions? Thanks niki

Why does my iPad air keep freezing, it's only 2 days old

I have an iPad air that I was bought for Christmas. It keep freezing a few times a day, can anyone tell me if they have experienced this, what I am doing wrong or how I can fix this.

It's not turning on at all, it turned off and won't respond to any buttons. I've tried to charge and all it does it turn on to the apple screen than turn back off, and does this the whole time while on the charger. I tried recoverying it through itunes also, and that didn't work either.
