IPad Air goes back to homepage for no reason why

Why is my iPad Air gong back to home page for no reason how to cure please

You could try resetting all settings but I really don't think that is going to work. It won't hurt anything and you will not lose any data, it just takes time to re-enter the device settings again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
If that fails, I think that I would be inclined to backup the iPad, restore the iOS, restore the backup and see how that goes.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
If that fails, you might want to think about restoring as new, but before you do that .... There have been a number of discussions about the iPad Air having low memory crashes. Do a search in the upper right portion of this site and enter iPad Air Low Memory Crashes and take a look at some of those discussions for more ideas.

  • I purchased a new iPad Air. Backed up all my old stuff from my iPad 2. I hooked my new air to my iTunes acct through my laptop

    I purchased a new iPad Air. Backed up all my old stuff from my iPad 2. I hooked my new air to my iTunes acct through my laptop & all is good until I did the update today. I show apps that need updates, which before they updated automatically. So when trying to updating it asked for my apple password. I kept Putting it in & it said no good. It is using my daughter I'd, not mine. I have checked all my accounts & settings, nothing has her id,just mine. How do I get it to my id?

    Copy the iTunes library from your backup as below:
    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
    Sync with the restored library.

  • HT201412 I have a new iPad Air and it is asking for my Passcode which I thought i knew but it is not turning on with the code I thought I entered?

    I have a new iPad Air and it is asking for my Passcode which I thought I knew , but it is not turning on with the code I tought I had entered?

    Try this  - 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.) No data/files will be erased.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • Is "ipad Air retina display" another name for "ipad Air 2"?

    Is "ipad Air retina display" another name for "ipad Air 2"?

    I guess you could call it that if you wanted to but the iPad Air 2 is known by the name "iPad Air 2". The name "iPad with Retina Display" was first given to what is now known as the iPad 3rd generation which now goes by the name "iPad 3rd generation". Same goes for the IPad 4th generation.

  • Hi, Unfortunately my Laptop has died (which had my iTunes on it). I want to ensure my music on my iPhone 5 and my iPad Air are backed up. Also, I want to sort my music in the way I used to with iTunes. How can I do this with just these two devices?

    Hi, Unfortunately my Laptop has died (which had my iTunes on it). I want to ensure my music on my iPhone 5 and my iPad Air are backed up. Also, I want to sort my music in the way I used to with iTunes. How can I do this with just these two devices, i.e. NO Computer? Can the iCloud help? Why can't I download iTunes (i.e. my library as I saw it on the computer) to these devices? Thanks to anyone who can help me here.

    You can change the email address of one's appleID...
    I'd recommend changing moms email to yours to get a good backup on the Mac
    Then switch mom's back to hers
    Then change your account to the same email you used.
    I've done something similar when I needed to update my Apple account (one ID changing email addresses and phone)

    If it is asking for an APlle ID password for an ID you do not recognize then you have stumbled upon the Activation Lock feature of IOS7.

  • My ipad keeps going back to "no SIM"? .

    My iPad keeps going back to "no SIM" instead of AT&T 3G at top -- thus, I am unable to access WIGI / Cloud connections.  What does that mean?  Has never happened until I download the new iO7!

    1. Close all inactive apps. Double-click the Home button and hold apps in the Task Bar down until they all wiggle then tap the minus sign to close apps. Tap the home button to return to Home screen.
    2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • My ipad keeps going back to home screen.  how can i fix that

    My iPad keeps going back to the home screen.  It happens when I tried to use one of my apps or when I open a new screen to browse the web.  Is there anything I can do to fix this?

    Try resetting your iPad by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    If still a problem, try downloading any free app to resync your iTunes account.
    If still a problem, restore via iTunes... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • Fan going into full blast for no reason

    the fan in my macbook has been going to 6000 rpm for no reason. like when im not doing anything, suddenly i hear the fans start spinning. usually, at 2500(min speed for my mb) rpm, it is barely audible. then suddenly i hear this low hum, and i look at the smcfancontrol, and notice that my fan's at 6100rpm. any idea why? is this normal? oh, and i usually have my itunes on most of the time.

    Yes, do check Activity Monitor (just type activity in Spotlight). Click on the CPU column and the most demanding application (the one that's sucking up your CPU cycles) will show up at the top of the list.
    For me when this happened (twice so far in a week or so) has been Airport. So just disable or force quit the offending application. For me I just turned the Airport off, waited about 15 seconds and turned it back on and all was well.
    Good luck

  • I just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

    just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

    A lot of computers don't provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.

  • I'm applying for jobs online through my iPad using the safari app. For some reason when I try to attach my resume, which I have saved in Pages, it does not give me an option to go to Pages. It only gives my an option to choose a file from photos. Does it

    I’m applying for jobs online through my iPad using the safari app. For
    some reason when I try to attach my resume, which I have saved in
    Pages, it does not give me an option to go to Pages. It only gives
    my an option to choose a file from photos. Does it not have the
    capability to choose a location other than photos??

    No. Safari does not have the option to attach files for uploading other than photos.
    Look at iCab Mobile in the App Store. There are other browsers that may do this, but I'm pretty sure that iCab will fill the need.

    You can try recovery mode to see if you can revive the iPad.

  • IPhone 4 Buzzer going On and Off for no reason.

    Has anyone had any problems of the iPhone Buzzer going on and off for no reason? I rebooted the iPhone but still doing the same thing. Help!

    My wife has a 3gs and I have an iphone 4 and have no such issue.
    Have you restored as new?
    If it is still inside the one year warranty you can make an appointment at the local genius bar and they will replace it, if they cannot solve it.
