IPad acting very strange and gets hot.

My iPad mini is acting very strange, Siri starts as normal, but repeats "Siri not available" about 25 times before working. The iPad is slow and gets very hot when on. When you type it takes a minute for the iPad to catch up even if you type slow. What could be wrong?

Try 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/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • IPad acting very strange (HELP!)

    Hi guys,
    something very strange is happening to my iPad 2 and I'm hoping someone could help me out.
    So my iPad was working fine few hours ago, and had approximately 50-60% battery left. So I put it to sleep by clicking on the power button on top right, and did my business. After few hours, I tried to turn on the screen as usual by clicking the power button but it won't turn on. So I tried long-clicking because I figured somehow it turned off, but it didn't register. I tried clicking the home button but nothing.
    So I plugged in the charger (despite knowing there was battery left) and the iPad turned on as if it was completely turned off (and asking my passcode and stuff). When I put the passcode, it opens but the battery says 100%. When I unplug the charger, it goes dead again.
    Even more weirdly, when I keep charger plugged, it stays awake for a minute then completely goes dead again. Then after few seconds, the apple logo comes up (as if rebooting) and turns on again. The cycle continues.
    I did not drop it or anything, it was just sitting there, and it worked perfectly fine up until now. I'm very confused why it's acting this way.
    Is this hardware malfunction, plain and simple? Should I take it to the apple store and have them fix it or replace it? 

    update:
    not sure if this is relevant but I turned on my ipad's icloud so i can move my camera roll to photostream (of course ipad still won't work without being plugged).
    Soon after, i got a message on ipad screen saying:
    "verification failed.
    the certificate for this server is invalid. you might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be setup.icloud.com which could put your confidential info at risk"
    Is it possible that my iPad was somehow hacked?

  • G5 acting very strange and now will not get past grey screen with Apple log

    Hi I have had my iMac G5 for a few years and it was working perfectly up until today ! When I switched it on and it started playing up. Every application I opened would randomly shut down. For instance, Safari would crash and mail would crash, as well as the finder refreshing itself. This settled after a short while. Therefore I thought things were fine until I pressed the < or > buttons in finder and the system would refresh itself ! Weird ! Fortunately I backed up all of my iTunes.
    I can see the hard drive when I hook it up via firewire to my MacBook Pro.
    The problem I have now is that the machine will not boot up ! It gets stuck on the grey screen and after a short while the fans kick in like the thing is ready for take off !
    Any ideas ?????
    Thanking you in advance !

    **WARNING: DUE TO SECURITY REASONS, PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR COMPUTER'S SERIAL NUMBER ON THESE MESSAGE BOARDS.**
    If you do not qualify for any of the above programs hopefully, you have AppleCare and/or your computer is still under warranty & you should contact Apple and/or your local AASP.
    Good luck!

  • Computer is acting very strange. Please help.

    My computer has starter acting very strange. It has start to take ages to boot up, and it runs a progress bar on the grey apple screen (as if its was booting in safe mode, but its not). I cant seem to save any files with any Apps. When I try to save documents in office it tells me ether the file name or path doesn't exist, it is open by another program, or its read only. Office also keeps coming up with errors saying im out of memory. Other apps just come up with errors when I try and save files.
    The last thing I did before my computer started acting up, was to increase the size of a Windows partition. Using Winclone I copied my Windows OS, then added the partition back to my mac, and re-partitioned it to a larger size. I formatted it into NTFS using Tuxera, and then used Winclone to put Windows back on. Everything seemed to go smoothly, and the Windows OS is fine.
    Please Help!

    Yes, iRadu is correct.
    If Disk Utility can't fix it, you'll need a more robust utility for the repair. I would recommend DiskWarrior. It is the best at directory repairs. It rebuilds then actually replaces your old directory. I feel every Mac owner should have a copy.
    Make sure you get the disk so you can boot up on it to run repairs. You can also install it on another drive and run it from there to repair this one. DW works faster that way.
    I use DW once a month to try and catch errors in my system from getting too far out of hand.
    DW is the only utility I would recommend to repair +Keys out of order+. It's a pretty serious error.
    Do you have a good backup...one with no issues?

    p.s. Here's a rewiew of DiskWarrior 4.

  • Caps lock button acting very strange.

    I recently got a Lenovo T420 thinkpad. Everything has been great until earlier today I tried to log-in to buzzport ( a GT website) and when I hit the caps lock button all these weird things happened. Google Chrome went into full screen, and the "elements" thing came up. Im not sure exactly what it is, but it looks like some sort of HTML code for the website. oh and if it also enters the text "09" when caps lock is pressed. well anyways, now this happens everytime I press caps lock. I opened notepad and pressed caps lock. The result was "09" followed by an endless stream of 1's which continued until I pressed caps lock again. This is very strange and I couldn't find any information about this on google. I don't know what could have caused this, but its very frustrating because this is a brand new laptop. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
    edit: so i've been playing with it, and im convinced that basically instead of just doing what caps lock does, it is pressing a series of other buttons as well including the 09, the 1's, and opening what i now know is called the elements pannel which normally opens with ctrl + shift + C. so in other words, for some reason pressing caps lock preses the buttons "09 ctrl + shift + C 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111" 
    edit 2: ok it just got weirder. I fixed the problem...sort of. I started thinking about everything i have done differently today. I mean ive only had the lap top for a few days after all. tonight is the first night i used the mute button. i unmuted the laptop, and now everything is fine. if i mute, then caps lock acts weird again. I could just always go to zero volume rather than mute, but just as a curiosity, why is this happening? it makes no sense!

    I noticed that some problems don't seem to get attention. I am typing this using a bluetooth keyboard on top of my G4 PowerBook, which is hardly an elegant solution to my caps lock problem. If I spend close to $2000 on a laptop, which is close to the most I spend on any consumer product after a house and car, is it unreasonable to expect that after a mere four years, it can be repaired, rather than simply tossed aside. I am an expat living in a SE Asian country without any Apple Authorised resellers etc. When I make the trip to Thailand to get my machine fixed, I'd like to know that someone there will know what to do to sort this problem, without me being faced with the prospect of having to pay a lot of money to buy a new one or replace hardware that is not in fact needing replaced. That is why I posted on this forum. Was I mistaken in thinking that in the entire Mac using community, there isn't more than one other person having the same issue as me? Is anybody from Apple aware of this problem and do they have any idea how to fix it? I'm not seeking to be antagonistic here, I'd just like to think that somebody, somewhere out there has some idea, what has gone wrong with my PowerBook and can help me get it fixed.
    p.s I sorted out the large fuzzy Apple on startup by zapping the PROM, so that doesn't seem to be directly connected to the game of green light tennis I can now play between my caps lock and num lock keys. (My caps lock key is permanently lit and when I try to turn it off, it reduces the volume of my speakers and "types" "rfr" and other such gobbledegook.)

    My Vista Home Premium desktop has not used Firefox for a long time. I just loaded it as well as on my Honeycomb Android. The statement that I made pretty much says what my problem is. I can use both of them at the same time and use a router with the air Verizon card installed.

  • My 3rd Gen won't boot up and gets hot when I plug in the charger.

    The subject line pretty much describes my dilemma. My 3rd Gen won't boot up and gets hot when I plug in the charger. Any suggestions?

    It is normal for an iPod to become warn when charging. Have you tried the troubleshooting here:

  • Connect iPad to MAC computer and get this message: iTunes could not connect to the iPad because the device timed out.  ??

    Connect iPad to MAC computer and get this message: iTunes could not connect to the iPad because the device timed out.  What is the likely problem???

    Eject the iPad, quit iTunes, restart the Mac and reset the iPad and try again. Use another USB port on the Mac if you have a free one to use.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up.

  • My computer is slow and gets hot

    Computer is slow and gets hot. What could be the problem?

    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    Boot into Safe Mode and do the following:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

  • Macbook Pro running slow and getting hot very quick

    So I own a macbook pro, and i bought it last november. Lately its been running really slow, and it gets hot really quickly.
    when i go to look at my storage, it says i have 435.14 GB free out of 499.25 GB so i dont think space is an issue.
    What can i do to fix this? I can't get on my macbook for longer than 10 minutues without it getting hot, and it takes me forever to load pages, etc.
    It's still fairly new so i dont see why i would be having problems already. I only really use it for school and some misc web surfing. can someone help me out please!

    You are still under warranty.  Call Apple tech support.  Let them deal w/it. 

  • Late 2007 MacBook Pro 17" lost all sound and gets hot!!

    So my late 2007 17" MacBook Pro has been acting up. Not only has it been slow but also...
    1. It gets really hot! Fans running at 6000 rpm according to IStat Pro and fan control is not helping.
    2. It crashes. Every time I try to edit video or do photoshop, the fans start blowing, it gets hot, freezes and crashes very quickly.
    3. All my sound is gone. I get the Apple chime when I start it up, but my music and any video online gives me no sound.
    4. Once in a while I get a distorted line across my screen.
    Any ideas what could be my problem? I downloaded SMART Utility and it told me my hard drive is failing. So I'm in the midst of replacing it. However I doubt that will solve all my problems. Or will it?
    I also discovered that one way to regain the sound I would just have to reset my PRAM, which I did and it didn't solve anything. Therefore I found that it could be that my logic board backup battery is dead? How do I know for sure?
    Any other thoughts?

    When I read "crash," "distorted line across my screen," "it gets really hot," and "2007 17" MacBook Pro," the first thing that comes to mind is logic/graphics board. Visit your local Apple Store, and see if they can validate this suspicion or not. The SMART utility reading usually precedes a drive failure, but it's hard to conclude what's happening here.
    In the meantime, make sure you're completely backed up. If you don't back up, purchase an external HD, and back up with SuperDuper. Preserve your machine by running things at lower temperatures (under 160•F), and keep an eye on iStat.
    Oh, and tell us the problem when you know.

  • MacBook Pro NOT sleeping properly anymore, and getting hot.

    My MacBook Pro does not sleep properly anymore, and gets really really hot, anytime I send it to sleep either by closing it or by selecting "sleep" from the menu. It also loses all its battery really fast while on this state (even faster than while being awake and being heavily used).
    It started a while ago only, or at least it was not there from the begining. I had never before had to put off a MacBook Pro, except while flying... I always just close them and they sleep after a few seconds; BUT I can not do like that anymore with my new MacBook Pro... I have to save, close and shut down... then turn on, open my apps, and open my files... its not something to be happy of... I'm very sad with this problem and I have been unable to find the reason for the sudden change.
    Please I need help with this.

    An additional detail I forgot to mention:
    Everytime I tell my MBP to sleep, or just close it, the computer does not seem to go off (because of the levels of the sound of the HD and of the fan), though the screen goes off correctly.
    Now, the strange part is that everytime I "wake it", the screen goes on immediately, asking for my password, and after inputing it correctly the screen goes COMPLETELY OFF for 2 seconds, before "coming back normally".
