IPad Air after upgrade to ios 8 continue to drop WiFi connection
On September 19, I upgrade my ipad air to ios 8, and it had been dropping Wifi connection ever since. I was browsing using Chrome and next thing the browser hang up; then error message informed me to no network connection. By the way, my network was strong (5 bars), because I was streaming to my Roku in HD without any issues. At the same time, my Airplay do not want to stream the content in full screen either. It only mirror what have see on my ipad, not allow me to go full screen on TV. I hoped Apple will step up and correct this issue as soon as possible; I miss the good old day of reliable upgrade from Apple.
Yes, and hopeful 8.1.1 will help. It's supposedly in beta testing.

Cannot play videos in my iPad Air after upgrading to iOS 8.0.2
Hello there,
After upgrading my iPad Air to iOS 8.0.2 I can no longer play videos in any application, not even in Apple's stock apps.
Is anybody else experimenting this issue?(A) Try reset iPad
Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together until you see the Apple Logo.
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Close all apps in the multi-task window
1.Double-click the Home button.
2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
3. Preview will fly off the screen. -
i tried to fix screen rotation on my ipad 2 after upgrading to ios 7. did the lock / unlock button, the on/off and even reset to factory settings... nothing works... do not know what to do... any suggestions?
When you reset to factory settings, did you restore as new or did you restore from a backup? If you restored from a backup, you could try restoring as new and don't use the backup. If you do that, you will lose all of your data, but you can download or sync all of your content back to the iPad.
You could also try resetting all settings before your restore as new. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. You will have to re enter all device settings again.
And of course the possibility does exist that the iPad has developed a hardware problem that is causing the rotation issue and only a visit to an Apple Store could determine that for sure. -

iPad running slow? How to speed up a slow iPad
http://appletoolbox.com/2012/07/ipad-running-slow-how-to-speed-up-a-slow-ipad/
Some things to try first:

2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)

• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list

You Tube App Missing on iPad 2 After Upgrade to iOS 5
I have an iPad 2 that I purchased from a US Apple store in May 2011. After upgrading to iOS 5 the You Tube app is missing. How can I reinstall it?
That is one of the standard apps that is not deletable. So it is probably there somewhere.
Check setting, general, restrictions, and make sure you didnt turn that on by accident.
Then goto the searchlight screen, and type in you tube, and if the app is on the pad, it will find it.
If restrictions are not on, and if searchlight does not find the app, do a full reboot,
If still no joy, do a restore from backup.
But check restrictions first. -

On iOS 6.1.3 this can be done without any problem. I have an iPhone 4 that was working perfectly for this function using iOS 6.1.3. After upgraded to iOS 7 / 7.0.2, the iPhone does not show any error on the screen.
This is a user-to-user forum: you aren't talking to Apple here.
I do sympathize with your situation: you are among many for whom upgrading is impracticable, but who are dependent on MobileMe facilities which will be withdrawn next June.
As you say, you will need 10.7.2 to access iCloud on a Mac, and iOS5 for mobile devices.
I can't offer you any easy solutions, but this list may at least clarify the exact situation for you:
Your email, calendars, contacts and bookmarks, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud.
Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery. will continue to work as before until next June.
You will be able to access email, calendar and contacts on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point. BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is). -

Line is not usable in ipad air after updating to ios 8.02
After I updated my ios to 8.02 in my ipad air, "line" is no longer usable. The failure symptom is that I can find my friend, but the "chat" function is not usable. I've tried to close the machine and re-start up again also I tried to delete "line" and re-load from appstore but it came out in vain. Did any one suffer the same issues? Please help me, thanks a lot!!

IOS 5 and ipad2 dropping wifi connection
After applying the update my ipad2 keeps briefly dropping the wifi connection and then reconnecting, although sometimes it prompts me to choose which network to connect to. No problems before the update and all other devices are connecting fine. Any thoughts?
I have fixed my problem...
I turned off my wireless router and back on again and now its working fine..
after spending ages resetting to ipad and mucking aroung with my home router settings, all I had to do was to turn it off then back on..
Hope this helps others..
yep, same issue here.....
I changed my router channel and it fixed the problem for a while...
I changed my router to wireless "n" only and it worked again for a while..
now I have not a clue... -
Issues With iPad mini after upgrading to iOS 8.1.2......
WWish I'd checked the forums first, but I upgraded to 8.1.2. A few days ago and have had nothing but issues.
FIrst -- it takes twice to three times as long to boot up my device.
After the apple logo disappears, the screen is just black for the longest time
Then eventually I hear a faint "DING" and the screen eventually gets lighter but this takes about 5-6 minutes
Haven't had time to check the new manual.... Is this normal?
second -- Lots of freeze ups doing any variety of functions
third -- When tapping to diwnload a WORD attachment in an e-mail.... the circle graph loads properly but the document never opens when tapped.
I'm not sure which is the most frustrating, plus there's no way to TURN OFF that dorm Emoji Keyboard which just gets in my way far too often!!
any body have any work around for any of these???
i No longer love my iPad...that's for sure.How do you know some stop halfway and others barely start? What are you seeing? While it is possible an app is not compatible with iOS 8.1.2, but I doubt it. If it was working with iOS 8, then it will work with 8.1.2. Try signing out of the App Store and sign back in again.

Upgraded my iPad 2 to IOS 8. Waited a month as I saw all the problems other users were having. Now I am with them. No service. Connectivity restored only after a restart . These are necessary frequently. Last week I had a fully functioning iPad now I do not.
If the IPad 2 was not capable of handling the upgrade it should have been excluded. I have read the fixes, tried some, apprehensive about trying others. Why should the customers have to work to fix an upgrade meant to improve performance?
Any news on an IOS fix?
Any solutions other than wiping out everything and starting over? Have seen that several times. Backing up, wiping clean, refreshing, restoring...why do we have to struggle?
i am spending way too much time trying to get my iPad back to what I had. I am sure the genius bar is packed with iphone 6 users and the new edition iPads. No room for folks with "old" ones. And if I try something and fail then I have nothing at all.
Hoping for a "fix" from Apple as well as any ideas.Hello, ik31.
