IPad 4th Gen recurring problem!

Right after purchase of iPad 4th gen 32GB Wifi+4G and in weeks since, it goes black between 65-55% battery life and is totally unresponsive. Only after plugging into a power source does it come alive and the first few times, a message immediately said "Cannot Verify Server Identity" "Not Trusted" with details of 'calander.yahoo.com' and 'imap.mail.yahoo.com and calander' or something and that happened several times, but the last 20 or so times, it does not come up any more.
I have tried restoring to iCloud backup and factory and still the same results. Bizzare. I am totally baffled.
Sent it back to Apple a few days ago and they returned it after a diagnotics check and could not reproduce the problem. I got it back and it was at 75% battery life which leads me to believe they didn't even take it down to 65% to reproduce it which if the case, ticks me off. They said they installed firmware and updates, but the same problem happened again after it reached 63%.
Frustrated and baffled. Has anybody seen or had this problem??

You've also tried restoring to your last backup and/or resetting back to factory defaults ? But you may need to contact Apple. If it's the 4th gen iPad then it should be covered by the 12 month warranty (it hasn't been dropped or anything ?), as they were only released in November.

Dear All,
My iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi Serial Number: DM*******184; Problem: can not connect Wi-Fi, just keep connecting...

Is this happening with one particular network or with all? Make sure iOS is updated on the device.
Try this:
Reboot ipad by pressing and holding both the home and sleep/wake buttons at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go. Then try to connect to network.
Go to settings, Toggle airplane mode on/off. Make sure bluetooth is off. Turn on wif (airplane mode off). Try to connect.
Reset Network Settings
Go to settings/general/reset/reset network settings. Then try to connect to network.
If its your home router, then reboot router by unplugging for 5-10min. (do this while you're resetting network settings).
If problem persists, then check for firmware updates on your router.(you check router manufacturer support website for downloads and instructions).

Attention to the apple developer, u need to check the issue about the iMovie which installed in an iPad 4th gen. Is having a problem during closing the app from the theater page to the home screen. It doesn't closes exactly severally...

Attention to the Apple developer, the iMovie which installed to the iPad 4th gen. has a problem when it's opened at the theater page it frequently couldn't be closed down to the home screen. The app page is actually blinking and cannot tap onto anything..

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

IOS 7 Major lag problem on iPad 4th gen.

two(2) questions that I need answers to:
1.) On iOS 6 the same animation was shown whether you used the home button or four finger pinched to go home. On iOS 7 using the button results in the stock animation which is fine, but the gesture results in a half closed application hang mess.This particular problem happens quite often. This is a problem that I and other iPad 3rd and 4th generation users have noticed. What is happening to Apple's iPads and what are they doing to fix this?
2.) Since I updated my iPad 4th gen. to iOS 7 Simple tasks like changing wallpaper takes 10 seconds , changing between tabs in settings is taking more than a few seconds. For me iOS 6 was much more smoother than the current iOS 7software. What is Apple trying to do about this?
Pls don't tell us that that we have to erase all content and settings. We shouldn't have to completely wipeout our devices to make the OS work right.
I can't believe Apple let these major problems slip right pass them.

You ought to address the questions you are demanding answers to to Apple. There are only other users here in these forums.

IPad -4th gen- Wi-FiDisplay Restart Problem

Hello,
I have iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi Ratina display.
My device restart automatically.
First it was blue screen on display. I try resetting it with Hold down the sleep and home keys, after seeing Apple symbol on screen. With this trick now i can see display but still if i try to open any application it got automatically restart.
Please give me suggestion what would be my next step?
I purchased this device last year. So if i need to send for repair it comes under free service or i need to pay some extra charge for it?

Ipad(4th gen) does not connect to Laserjet 100 color MFP M175nw for AirPrinting

Hi,
I have a problem with Laserjet 100 color MFP M175nw and Airprinting.
Ipad(4th gen) cannot connect to printer for AirPrinting.
Wireless Direct is set on in the printer.
When I choose to connect to printers own wifi network with my Ipad, it can't connect.
(Ipad doesn't show the wifi symbol on top left corner.)
And if I try to print with Safari, it says "AirPrint-tulostimia ei löytynyt" which means in english "No Airprint-printers found".
I have all installations by the guide book several times, but seems that this Airprint simple doesn't work.
Device Configuration show this:
Installed Personalities and Options
PCL6           (20040201)
AirPrint
PCL              (20040201)
PDF              (20040201)
PS                 (20040201)
I wonder why AirPrint has empty value? (what ever this might mean)

Hi,
Thank you for your reply and first action plan to find a quick fix.
Unfortunatelly even though I disabled IPv6, it didn't fix the problem. Also reboot and WIFI restart has been tryed sevelar times without any help. Ipad Safari is still giving me a message "no airprint printer found".
Same problem also when I try to print so that both Ipad and printer are connected to my home WLAN/DSL-router.
I don't see any problems for the printer to connect my home WLAN, both printer and Ipad has received an IP address from the WLAN router.
My router model is Zyxel AMG1202-T10B.
Ipad is updated to it's latest SW version which is 7.0.6. and printer's firmware date is 20131028.
I have no problems printing with my Windows 7 desktop computer which is connected to same network as well.
Windows 7 PC is connected to router via Ethernet. Printer is connected to router via Wireless, not ethernet.

My ipad 4th gen touch screen is not working in one area

I had a screen replacement and now the Ipad 4th gen touch screen is not working in one area ( a strip across the middle). We tried 3 different touch screens with digitizer...any ideas?

Since Apple doesn't replace screens, they replace the iPad, I presume you had your screen replaced by an unauthorized service provider or perhaps you replaced it yourself. That voids the warranty and the ability to get assistance from Apple. If someone else replaced your screen take it back to them and demand the correct the problem.

IPad 4th Gen will not access gmail/error message regarding password

iPad 4th Gen,32GB, iOS8.1 suddenly giving error message of incorrect user name or password when trying push emails. Steps tried so far:
unlocked gmail account via Safari browser
changed from fetch to push and back
checked stmp info and turned on SSL
rebooted iPad
deleted gmail account
attempted to load gmail account
Any other fixes to try? Problem just suddenly happened this afternoon. Been working just fine, even after downloading iOS 8.1 over 24 hours ago. Problem has only existed for about 6 hours. Had exact problem with iPhone 6, 64GB, iOS 8.1 at the same time but unlocking gmail account via Safari resolved the problem on the iPhone 6. All other apps on both devices working perfectly.

Try this first - 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Ipad 4th gen or Ipad Mini

I gave away my Ipad 2 to my niece. I'm thinking of buying another Ipad. I don't know which to select. The Ipad 4th gen or the Ipad mini. I'm not really into gaming since I just use my ps3 for that. I just plan to watch movies, surf the net, do some video edting and watch movies thru netflix.

The iPad Mini Wi-Fi problems is on iOS 6.0.2 when you update it.. So if you are in iPad Mini or iPhone 5 Stay at iOS 6.0.1 because when you update to iOS 6.0.2 you will have a Wi-Fi Problem.

My IPad 4th Gen speaker has turned to static. I did a reset, checked the sound and accessibility settings. Any other ideas?

My IPad 4th gen now has static on sound. I've done reset and checked sound controls and accessibility. Help?

A hard reset has been known to remedy this problem.
You might want to detail when the static happens. All the time? Only when you insert the mini jack? With specific software or volume?

Ipad 4th gen retina display takes too long downloading apps

I have a Ipad 4th Gen ios 6.1.3. When i tap the app store icon it takes too long to show the info. The same occurs when i itry to install some apps. Comparing with a Asus Memo Pad 10 is slower what does not have to be. My network runs till 200mbps and the ipad has full power and full wi-fi connection.
Is there a problem of comfiguration or other?.
Thank you very much for the help.

Have you tried this:
1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

IPad 4th Gen and Safari crashing, plus running like a slug after IOS7 upg

Since I updated my iPad 4th Gen with the latest IOS it has become the worst piece of electronic equipment I own, I received in February as a birthday present and now I feel it’s totally useless.
Safari crashes constantly, it takes forever to open any url I try to go to, I have multiple I mean multiple tabs/ or whatever they call them now that I just cannot close, Its runs like a dead slug, it’s so slow, it’s a absolute nightmare.
I would actually liken it to the early days of Microsoft’s first attempts at windows, yea I know I said it. I’m typing this on my Windows 8 pc and you know what it actually works very very well. Unlike my nice new IPad, which after the update does not, the problems are too numerous to mention. What are apple doing about it ? and has anyone found a solution - fix - workaround please.

I'm having the same issue. Safari is useless. I have tried numerous things to try to fix it and it is not working at all. It's slow and I can't close any tabs either. I just got my IPad 4 three weeks ago so I feel your pain. I wish Apple would fix this. I use Chrome and Mercury apps for browsing and they work just fine. However, I have no problems on my IPhone 4s with the update.

Ipad 4th gen headphone jack not working properly

Any ideas on this ?
Every time I put put my headphone jack in all I could hear is hiss sounds and when I try to maximize the volume I could hear the music but its too loud for me .
If I try to move my ipad 4th gen in stand it goes back normal , if I put it down or any other position I want to try it starts to give weird sounds again . ( plugged headphones )
It's my first time buying a tablet so I have little information about tablets and how to solve this .
Is it hardware or software issues or dust , it's been a week and half since I bought the ipad .
I'm quite satisfied with the buy but if it won't work well I guess I'm gonna be having a :( face .

Thanks so much for this post!
I got a lot of fluff out of my 1st gen ipod Touch's headphone jack. The audio would be fine if I used my Apple headphones (but they have completely fallen apart, 3rd replacement set from Apple) but with third party headphones I had the same problem as you described.

IPad 4th gen.16 GB

Hello, everyone
I have an offer to buy used iPad 4th gen 16 GB. What I am interested in is next:
1: Is 16 GB model slower than others? (It shouldn't be but why not to ask)
2: Is there enough space to handle iWork and iLife applications and other 10 apps such as Dropbox, Skydrive, Logic Remote...??? I am asking this because I read that Retina apps take much more space than it was case with non-Retina apps.
Thanks!

Who offered to sell you their ipad? Why are they selling it to you? - Very possibly to buy one with more space?
If that's the case. then that will tell you something. Can you trust that they have never dropped it or had other problems with it?
Also, a 16 gb ipad does not hold as much as you think and you do not start out with 16 gb. Some are used up by apps that are in the ipad when you buy it and cannot be removed. Always buy as much space as yoou need because you cannot increase it.
I don't know if it's slower, but new ios updates and therefore app updates, will take up more space as the apps update to keep up with the ios.
I saw your list above, but very often, once someone buys an ipad and learns all they can do with it, the list of apps will grow My husband thought 16 gb would be more than enough (knew nothing about what they can do - deals only with IT at office if problems with computers, and our younger son in college thought 32 gb would be plenty. We're all happy we went with the 64 gb, though I realize that for some the 16 gb or the 32 gb can be enough.
The only place I would buy a used ipad would be from the Apple refurbished store (on line only.)
If you think you're getting a $$ deal check out the Apple refurbished store. All ipads from there come with a new front and back cover, a brand new battery, and a full one year warranty, and they've been fully checked for issues. This person can give you the warranty, but it will only be good from the day it was bought from Apple.
The two ipad 2 64 gb we bought last year get lots of use and have been great. And it's great not to worry about space. (We waited to buy 32 gb when the 'new' now and quickly discontinued ipad came out, not thrilled with reviews but could not find new 32 or 64 gb anywhere when we decided. So for the first time we went refurb.)
Hope this helps. And enjoy whatever ipad you get.
