IPad (A1458) has stopped working since iOS 7

I upgraded my iPad (A1458) to iOS 7 a couple of days ago (hours after it was officially released). Since then, my iPad has become unusable. It does several different things after every iTunes led restore. It keeps rebooting, getting stuck on the Apple logo black screen and also, I have restored it successfully at least 7 or more times, and more than 20 unsuccessful attempts that I am willing to ignore (Network issues etc etc). I have done 'literally' everything that seemed possible. Twice after successful restores and setting the iPad up afresh using even different Apple IDs I noticed that while using the iPad for very ordinary tasks like "touching" the touch screen everything freezes and I get to see Matrix style yellow etc colors all over the screen. Once I force restart the device it does not even get to the point to show me the Apple logo. I understand I cannot rollback to iOS 6. Any advice to how I can make my restored iPad to work for more than 3 minutes will be welcome. Thanks.

Just saw this error on the boot screen (Apple logo showing). Anyone? Help?!

Face time has stopped working since update on iPad and iPhone

My face time has stopped working since both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S did their iOS 6.1 update. They just say that a connection cannot be made, or FaceTime unavailable. Both devices are sitting beside each other, both have excellent wifi. If you try to FaceTime one of the devices, it will ring once and then lose the connection. Apple account details are all fine, FaceTime is switched on, on both. Kind of lost and frustrated now

Hey guys,
So I also noticed a few weeks ago facetime stopped working on my iphone but was still working on my ipad2 and macbook pro.
Phone - iphone 4
os version - 6.1.3
carrier - at&t 14.2
location - usa
I use the same apple id for all devices
I searched online for a fix and/or troubleshooting help. I tried alot of the suggestions on this discussion as well as others but nothing seemed to work. Out of frustration, I finally reached out to apple tech support. I went through the entire trouble shooting steps with an apple technician and was even transferred to a senior advisor for additional help. We tried everything from resetting passwords, resetting icloud accounts, resetting phone settings, checking network settings, resetting date & time, resetting location, making sure push and multitasking functionalities were working properly, etc. We spent a couple hours troubleshooting trying everything but nothing worked. The apple tech said I would have to restore the os and if that didn't work, the only other thing to do would be to send in my phone. But he did stress that I had to restore as a NEW device.
I backed up my phone using iclould and my computer (everything is synced) and restored as a new device. I tested facetime and it worked, however my phone was back to factory position which is not ideal. So I went to itunes and restored my most resent backup. I got all my phone contents back but FaceTime no longer worked. I called the apple senior advisor back and he said I would not be able to restore from a backup because there seemed to be an issue with it that prevented FaceTime from working properly. So I backed up what I could to itunes and iCloud then restored my phone as new. After the restore, it prompted me to install the carrier software update which I did. Then I used itunes to sync my music, apps, contacts, mail, videos, pics, etc. I did this yesterday and facetime has been working properly since then. However certain things I was not able to recover.
So far, these are the things I noticed have been lost with the restore:
- all my settings (everything went back to default/factory)
- voicemail messages greater than 30 days old
- all text and iMessages (but I still have copies of imessage conversations on my iPad and mac)
- data stored within apps (you start fresh like when you first downloaded the app. some apps i have online accounts that sync but most apps the data is lost)
- screen display configurations
- notes that were only on phone and not synced with an email account
Out of all my research, this has been the only thing to get facetime working again. But on the downside, it does take a lot of time to backup, restore, re-sync, and then set up my phone similarly to how I previously had things. The big thing for me was the loss of my apps data. I wish there was a way to restore that. But when all is said and done, I'm glad to have FaceTime back on my phone.
If you are not quite ready to restore, check out this discussion for other suggestions you can try first:

The sound on my iPad 2 has stopped working....

The sound on my iPad 2 has stop working.....no sound in app, home screen, no locking sounds, keyboard clicks, no music, no movies.....no nothing!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost (done)
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings (Done)
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My camera on my iPad 2 has stopped working for the second time.

My camera on my iPad.2 has stopped working for the 2nd time. Last time it just started working again after a couple of months.
I have tried closing the camera app completely & also re-booting the iPad completely but to no avail.
Any ideas anyone?

You'll first need to have iTunes on your computer - from the summary page (the one that opens when you select the iPad in iTunes) it'll give you options for backing up and restoring it. On that page just select 'restore iPad' and that'll get it started.
Hope it's just software then, those out-of-warranty replacements can get pricey.

My time capsule has stopped working since installing Yosemite. It says to wait to tell me how much longer but it stays that way for hours.

My time machine has stopped working since I upgraded to Yosemite. It gets to the point that says it will estimate the time remaining, but it never gives me that answer and it just stays on that page and never completes it's backup. This is a brand new macpro, so I wanted to capture the previous info on my computer I was able to put my external hard drive on new computer and it did the migration and all my old info returned. However, two days later I wanted to do a backup using Time Machine with my Western Digital Mac external hard drive but it won't progress past saying how much time remaining, even after several hours of sitting there.

You do need to wait a long time.. as it takes a long while for Yosemite to index the existing backup if it is large.
Here is Apple's List of bad things that happen to TM in Yosemite.
OS X Yosemite: Time Machine problems
It is clearly no where near as comprehensive as it needs to be.
I presume your disk has your old backup.. it may be better to keep the old backup.. save that for the future.. and get a new disk and start a fresh clean backup.
I would also recommend using Carbon Copy Cloner or similar for the time being. Make a bootable clone backup of your drive to a new external drive.. it is really superior in lots of ways to Time Machine. And does show you what it is doing.
For TM at least you can still use the widget so you have some log access to that TM does.

Snapchat has stopped working since the update

Snapchat has stopped working since the update, plus my phonebook still doesn't work after going in setting and clearing the data etc etc or running a repair???

Sorry to hear that you have issues after the update-
Have you tried to uninstall and then install the app again after the update? This may be needed with some apps when you update Android.
Regarding contacts, please continue that discussion in the first thread: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z2/phonebook-contacts-not-working-since-update/m-p/972365

HT1414 my top button has stopped working since the ios7 update can you help the shop said its not directly the button as its clicking properly

my top button has stopped working since the ios7 update and the shop said the actual button is working ok does anybody have an answer for this

i found out my prob!
here is what you do.
go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
click "software updates".
click "installed software"
if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
go to mail.
click "mail" at the top.
click "preferences...".
find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back

My home screen button has stopped working since updating to ios7 (iphone4)

My home screen button has stopped working since updating to ios7 (iphone4)
Originally i noticed that it was less responsive but now it does absolutely nothing.
I have cleaned the button and also tried calibrating (opening an apple app, holding the power button and then the home button)
Nothing has helped and I am forced to use assisted touch.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Craig.

No advice? I suppose I could try sacrificing an android to the apple gods.....

My iPad 1 has stopped working after trying to instal iOS 5. Can you help restore?

My iPad has stopped working after trying unsuccessfully to instal iOS5. All that's currently showing on the iPad screen is a white USB cable with a thick arrow pointing towards the iTunes logo (black double note within a white rimmed circle and a blue background).I cannot switch it off and have seemingly lost everything that was on it.
Please help!

That means you have to restore the device with iTunes now. So connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and restore the iPad.

The App Store search has stopped working since I updated to 8.2 on iPad

Hi
since I updated my software to 8.2 on my iPad the App Store search has stopped working but other features work on the App Store only the search option is not responding and says " the App Store is temporary unavailable please try again later "
I have turned my iPad off and on couple of times but with the same result each time.
the 8.2 update is for the new Apple watch and health app.
can any one help?

Based on the numerous posts regarding iTunes and the App Store, there appears to be an issue at Apple's end. Although Apple has not provided any indication on the cloud status page.
Do not change your settings.
