IPad 4th gen seems that Safari will return to home page when new mail downloads during web

iPad 4th Gen. Safari will return to home page when it seems to download new mail when I'm on the web!

Clear Safari, close Safari completely and reset your iPad.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
In order to close apps in iOS 7, 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.
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.

I am upgrading from a 2nd gen ipod touch to a 4th gen ipod touch. Will I have problems syncing my new ipod to my existing itunes library/account?

Don't know why you would.
You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like.

Safari will not remember home page

This actually happened when I originally upgraded to Lion but has continued with Mountain Lion. I have a Mac Mini and an iMac and this occurs on both computers. When I open Safari rather than going to the home page as it did with Snow Leopard it returns to the last page I visited. I checked Safari preferences and it shows my home page as set properly. Is there any other thing that needs to to set in preferences so Safari opens to the home page? I have cleared history, reset Safari and anything else I can think of but it continues ot return to the last page visited. What am I missing?

Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist (preferences) on one of the Macs.
Quit Safari then open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash. If not, move it back to the Preferences folder.

Running ios5.1.1 on original iPad. system constantly crashes and returns to home page when on the web. using safari.

Running IOs 5.1.1 on original Ipad. System constantly crashes returning to the home screen when in internet. Using Safari browser. is there anything I can upgrade or clear to help??

There are a few things that you could try. First try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Safari will not open home page and other glitches since upgrade

Strange stuff happening since I did the Combo Upgrade 10.4.11. Safari will not open to my home page. I have used preferences to set the home page but closing Safari and restarting still opens a blank page with no URL in the address box. I also noticed that several pages I have opened that have log in fields don't allow tabbing to the next field. I have checked all the preferences and every thing seems right. I have trashed Safari and its preference folder, downloaded the upgrade and used Pacifist to reinstall Safari. I used Disk Utility to repair permissions. Still I can't can't get a home page to load. Before the reinstall, I synched with .Mac to save my bookmarks and synched again afterwards to bring them into the fresh install of Safari. What should I do now?

Here is a culmination of my searching and efforts that fixed this issue for me. I find it necessary to run Disk Utility more frequently.
1) Trash Safari preferences in all user accounts:
Computer/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
2) Empty trash
3) Move files from Input manager to desktop
/Users/YourUsername/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/InputManagers/
4) Restart computer
5) Close Safari if automatically opens on restart
6) Open disk utility: Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility
7) Verify permissions
8) Repair permissions
9) Reopen Safari
10) Return Input Manager files from Step 3, ONE FILE AT A TIME from Desktop to Input Manager Folder and Restart between moves.

Safari Will not load Home page

Each time I start Safari for a new session it boots to the pages I was using in the last session. It will nto boot to the SET Home page. anyone else have this issue? I could see no place in Preferences where I can change this.

System Prefs > General > uncheck "Restore Windows when quitting and reopening apps"

I have an older nano (4th gen?) and it will not shut off and when you try to skip through songs it skips itself back. Buttons seem to be pushing themselves. I've tried doing a hard reset and it did not work.

My older nano is not working. I have to keep it plugged in all the time because it does not shut off. The buttons only work sometimes and then they scroll and skip forward and backward by themselves. I have checked updates and I have also reset it back to factory and it is not working.

Hello mistymorrill
If after all that you have tried and your iPod nano is still not working, the refer the page below for further options.

IPad 4th Gen purchased - is my Macbook 3.1 too old to use?

I have bought the new iPad 4th Gen with retina display last week.... when plugged into my computer, iTunes on my Mac Book (3.1) will not pick it up, saying I need iTunes 10.7 or later. BUT to upgrade my iTunes, I need OS X 10.6.8 or later - my Mac only has OS X 10.5.8 and wont download anything newer.
I'm stuffed right?? Do i need a new computer? Or is there something I can possibly do to upgrage my OS X, so I can download a newer iTunes to use my iPad?? ARGHHH! I have tried upgrading to older new versions of Mac OS X but everything says my computer is not compatible.
I thought I was somewhat computer savvy, WRONG.

Arghh thanks. I bought the iPad to save some coin by not having to buy a new Mac Book as its super old, but looks like ill have to buy a new Mac too! My iPhone 3 and 4 both worked with this Mac though but definitely no chance of the iPad working.... Thought that would be the case.

Actionscript 3 coding to return to home page 10 secs after sound file stops

Hi..
I am having some problems with my Flash Project.
At the moment the whole thing works but I now need it to do something I have never done before.
Basically, the user will select a page and the project will then run, via actionscript 3.0 coding, a sound file and display the appropriate page within the timeline.
I have a back button that once tapped will return to home page.
I now need it to return to home page 10 secs after the sound file has stopped as well as keep the function of the back button.
What do I do?
I can provide the coding I am using if required.
I am currently using Flash Pro CS6 on a Win 7 Pro PC.
Thank you for your help
Michael

Thank you Ned for your help, however as I do not really understand how the settimeout function works, it has now made me more confused.
I think I have nutted out what I am trying to say.
Essentially my project is like a web page if you like.
I have six individual pages which all display a picture and play a sound file.
What I would like to do is after each page is selected it will play a sound file, I then want it to wait 10 secs and then go back to a
home page (which will be frame 1) or if they are impatient there is a back button that directs you back to frame 1.
I have included the code used by the back button to manually get back to frame 1 either whilst the sound file is playing or after it has finished
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_1);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_1(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(1);
/* Click to Stop All Sounds
Clicking on the symbol instance stops all sounds currently playing.
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToStopAllSounds);
function fl_ClickToStopAllSounds(event:MouseEvent):void
SoundMixer.stopAll();
I just want it to return to home page automatically once the sound file is finished and there is nil input from the touch screen. (This will simulate someone walking away midway and leaving it with 2nd web page showing.)
I hope this makes sense.
Thank you

I have a ipad 4th gen with the lightning charging port. I have realised how long it takes to charge and the poor battery life which means I can't take my ipad anywhere. Is there a case that is available that will charge my ipad? I know they are out there

I have a ipad 4th gen with the lightning charging port. I have realised how long it takes to charge and the poor battery life which means I can't take my ipad anywhere. Is there a case that is available that will charge my ipad? I know they are out there for older iPads with the 30pin charger but I can't find one for the lighning 8pin charger.

I don't know what you mean by "poor battery life". If your iPad is working properly you should get 9-10 hours of life.

Why do I have to connect my ipad(4th gen) to my laptop to download apps? I downloaded some yesterday, but now they just say waiting. If I connect to ITunes, I can get them through that. I am not using cellular data, just through wifi.

Any ideas greatly appreciated, it will save me a journey to the apple store

I have now solved it. I signed out of my iTunes account and then held down both the power buttons until the apple appeared. When I signed back in it started downloading.

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 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.

My iPad (4th gen) will not play sound from videos played via Facebook. Anybody have suggestions?

I've restarted my iPad, there are no available updates that I am aware of.

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
