Ipad and ios8 issues

since upgrading to ios8 on my ipad i'm continually have to power on and off to get any updates to various sites and to upload anything. any idea why or how to solve it

Hi
IOS8 has completely ruined my phone, which I also use for work. I now have a blurry screen, a phone that crashes after typing an average of two words and have lost pretty much all functionality. I took it to a Telstra shop who confirmed they had seen similar issues and apple had given no update as to when this would be fixed. As an owner of many apple products I am seriously falling out of love with Apple quickly over this. I have had no use of my phone for a week and fail to see how Apple havenot communicated this as everyone I speak to is having big issues. Anyone else on here experiencing the same thing?

  • IPad and iPhone issues with 1242AP

    Hi,
    We have a 1242 AP (b/g and a) installed at a customer site where they would like to use iPads and iPhones along with laptop PC's for wireless LAN and internet access. We've tried getting these devices to connect and are having problems.  Laptops using b/g radios are having no such issues.
    I've read about the iPads having problems when trying to connect to APs that support mixed modes (b/g, n).  Does anyone have any experience with regard to solving this issue?  Should we turn off all the g radio settings in order to force the AP and iPad to connect using the b radio standard?  Also, since the iPad doc states that it has support for the "a" radio standard, could we solve the problem with regard to the iPads by turning on the 5 ghz "a" radio in the AP?  Right now it is off.
    Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    My understanding is that when the Apple Devices like iPad, iTouch, iPhone go into sleep mode they actually shutdown the WiFi radio interface which causes the device to obviously disconnect from the wireless and then the user idle timeout on the controller kicks the user off the network. Then when the device comes out of sleep it has to re-enable the radios, then search for networks, then reconnect, and then go thru the authentication process and some time it fails or can get blocked as a result of too many reauthentications.  So I generally turn off the exclude client option to minimize the occurance of this.  This maynot be the case but it's what i have experienced with them.
    Hope this help... Please rate useful posts.
    Thanks,

  • Disabled ipad  and password issues after ios7 upgrade

    I upgraded my iPad mini and all seemed well so I upgraded my iPhone 4s and my iTouch 5.
    It asked me for a Passpwrd to restore and I never used a password for my backups or on my iPhone.  I tried 0000 and 1234 as well as every PW combo I ever used--nada.  I finally had to set the phone up as a new device.
    Later I tried to access my iPad Mini and when I put in the PW I just set, it refused it and finally disabled the iPad.  I had to go into restore and when I did the backup file would not accept my PW.
    This is a nightmare.  I lost valuable info not to mention the amount of time to rearrange my iPhone and iPad.  I  habe my backup but cannot access it because it will not accpet the PW
    The really stupid thing is that trying too many PWs disabled the iPad and I suppose that is to make it a brick if you steal it but I was able to force a restore  by shutting down and  holding down the home button when I plugged it in so if I had stolen it it would not make any sense at all

    I was experiencing the same thing.  This article worked for me, hopefully it will help you.

    Hold both the home button and the wake/suspend button down at the same time. You should see the Apple logo appear on your screen after holding these buttons down a couple of seconds, which means your iPad is booting up and should be good to go in a few more seconds.

  • IPad and Itunes Issue..please help

    Hi- i suddenly found yesterday that none of my apps in IPAD are working. And Itunes from my laptop disappeared. i tried to reinstall but it gives an error message of invalid E:\ drive. What could be the issue.Secondly is it possible that without synching the ipad with the itunes, the apps stop working because the itunes has disappeared from my laptop. please help

    However, I accidentally erased my account,
    How did you erase your account?  A lot of people would like to know.  No one has found a way of erasing an Apple id account.

  • New laptop, existing iPad and snyc issues

    Ok.  New laptop installed. iTunes installed.  All apps transferred. iTunes music and other sourced music available in iTunes. All my PDF files in iTunes
    And yes the new iTunes is authorised on my Apple ID.
    But...
         I need to sync my PDFs and I get "The iPad is synced with another computer..." do I want to "Erase and Sync".
    This leaves me with questions:
         Why can't I migrate to the new laptop?
         This is from Apple, it should be easy right?
         Will "Erase and Sync" mess with my layout (experience tells me yes)?
         My iPhone has my music, so it's going to be worse when I move it over right?
    Important items to note.  All items (music,apps,pdfs,...) are on the new laptop, but I know where everything is on my iPad/iPhone and I don't want it to change.
    Thoughts and advice appreciated.
    Bruce

    Copy the entire /Music/ iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
    Everything will sync fine as it iis the same library.
    You won't get the Erase & sync message.

  • RTZ and iOS8 issue

    Hello! New Time Zones were applied in Russia on 26th of October 2014.
       Microsoft released a patch for Windows OS adding these time zones.
    After that date all the devices with iOS 8 (including 8.1.1) that are connected to our Exchange server show every appointment in calendar in wrong time (each event has moved back by 1 hour, and it is only on iOS devices.
    When we test the same in iOS 7.1.2 - it works as it should be, all the events appear properly.
       All the time related settings on iOS 8 devices are configured properly:
    General-Date and Time-Set Automatically-On
    Mail,Contacts,Calendar-Time Zone Override-Off
    Is there any workaround/fix. Should it be just fixed on Apple servers (proper time zones support) or there should be a patch released?
    Thank you.
    iPhone 5s(8.0.2),6(8.1.1), iPad Air2 (8.1)

    Like in Select is used as
    WHERE col1 LIKE 'aaa%'
    and disable the index on col1 (Sure exists Index-Function)
    as it's better writing
    WHERE account_name LIKE 'CAPITAL%'in comparison to
    WHERE SUBSTR(account_name,1,7) = 'CAPITAL'Sure is better if you can use col1 = :item but I don't know your goal.

    UDPATE:
    Spoke with Express lane, and issue was escalated.  Kudos to the support guys that handled this one (Brian and Yi).  Went through everything in detail and took all the crash dumps off the iphones and ipads to send to engineering.
    After backing up the contacts, the recommendation was to delete all contacts in  iCloud.  Doing that caused my iCloud to crash (in the browser), so more crash dumps were sent to apple.
    Eventually got all contacts deleted, then did a resync.  Looks like IOS devices are coming back to life and syncing again.
    Also, Outlook iCloud connector has just been updated to ver 1.0.1 so i installed that on their recommendation.
    BOTTOM LINE workaround:
    1. Backup contacts
    2. Delete contacts in iCloud
    3. Delete accounts on IOS devices
    4. Recreate accounts on IOS devices.
    Hoping a real root cause can be found and real fix implemented.  This has caused me to doubt the stability of iCloud, so i will procees with caution.

  • I find that after updating my ipad to ios8 banking applications to deposit funds no longer work. The camera image rotates from horizontal to vertical and cannot be corrected. Is this a new ios8 error. I tried two different bank applications for ipad.

    Hi, Thanks for that further bug description In Your Last Message That Describes The Problem I Am Having perfectly and is exactly the same for me.
    unfortunately that fix for my camera Powershot G6 does not work or apply as the view pictures switch is different on G6 is not usable during download as once you plug in DC/USB cable it turns off, and makes no diff and problem still exists exactly as you just described.
    thanks anyways "Selz Boy"
    it has been 17 days since apple promised to get back to me within 3-5 days hopefully with a solution, but I have still not heard from them.
    They blew me off, i guess, probably i will have to wait for new Yosemite OS update, which they pre-warned me could take as much as 6 months.
    I cannot believe apple released this new update with such major bug issues for camera downloads and that horrible "Photos" pgm which has all sorts of downgrades in features, usefulness and new bugs compared to iPhotos which I just finally got used to and was much better software.
    I am starting to lose faith in Apple and I am getting that Microsoft "FEEL" like I used to have when I was a PC user, which was why I originally switched to Apple  computers in first place.
    Oh well got my fingers crossed here.
    Thankfully the memory card reader solution  is working well, but cost me $45.

  • Ipad and iphone stops typing and freezes with ios8

    My iphone and iPad will freeze and stop typing and is laggy sometimes when typing into text boxes in safari with IOS 8 never had this issue till upgrading my ios. I have tried restoring my ipad and still getting the same result. I have the iphone 5s and ipad air. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is anybody else having this issue? Is one of the bugs of the IOS8 system?

    I have this same problem, and I've seen a trigger.  When I am completing a form in Safari, when I type the first 2 characters of one of my 3 character Keyboard Shortcuts, Safari will freeze.  It's as if Safari is trying to anticipate that I am ready to type the 3rd character, which would then trigger the Auto Complete of the Keyboard Shortcut that I've setup.  But since Safari freezes upon the second character, Auto Complete is not triggered.

    i purchased 2 books for my iPad and they downloaded successfully.  They show up in iTunes when my iPad is connected to my Mac but do not show up on the Mac.  Is this a synch issue?  When I click the Synch box I am warned that downloads on my iPad will be erased.  Is that true?  My ultimate goad is to be able to read the books on my iPhone as well.  Thanks.

    You should be able to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync them to the iPhone (or you could re-download them directly on the iPhone)

  • Imessage and other Issues with 3rd Gen iPad

    Hi there, just got a 3rd Gen iPad for the mrs and so far it's been great.
    However, several rather annoying issues have developed and I can't seem to find the right trouble shooting for it, so I thought I'd try here.
    So here they are:
    iMessage & facetime don't work
    Issue 1- Each time she uses her Apple ID log in for either feature a message "iMessage Activation: Could no sign in. Please check your network connection and try again". I've checked the network settings, I've reset them on the iPad and yet it seems to persist. Her appleID is valid as it works on her iPhone, which is using the same network/Wifi as the iPad, yet the iPad seems to decide it doesn't want to activate. I've signed in on my appleID and the same message seems to appear
    Issue 2 - When using apps like Chrome a constant message will appear "Connect to iTunes to use push notifications" every time the app is open. This has been done, it's been backed up and it has connected to iTunes, yet these messages still pop up each time chrome is opened.

    I also am having issues with my ipad mini as far as imessage . sometimes it works fine . Sometines I receive ok but it hangs on sending . i have tried everything . I think the apple server is a mess  Most times I can only send If i am replying to a message i received . If i try to start a message it hangs . No reason found

    If I delete an issue, can I download it again for free later?
    Yes. Simply touch the home icon in the upper left corner of your app to go to see all available issues. Tap the “archive” button next to an issue to remove it from your iPad and free up disc space. You can re-download it for free at any time.

  • Upgraded to TimeCapsule and now issues with AirPrint from iPhone and iPad

    Okay.  I bought a HP 210a air print printer.  It was working great with my Linksys router and my iPad and iPhone worked with it perfectly.  Since that time I have recently bought a new new 2TB Time Capsule and just recently set it up.  The old router is no longer hooked up.  Since switching over to the new router, nothing prints from the iPhone or iPad.  So here are the details and I am hoping I am just missing a step:
    1.  I think it is important to point this part out.  After setting up the new router, and before discovering any of this, I turned on the HP printer.  Upon doing so, the printer informed me a software update was available from HP so I downloaded it and it appeared everything was fine.
    2.  After the update, I tried printing and nothing.  Duh, the printer was still looking for the old router.  I ran the built in HP wireless setup wizard on the printer and it pointed to the new router fine.  I tested the connection using the test feature on the printer, and it printed a report that all was fine and that it was now pointed at the Time Capsule, great signal, etc...
    3.  I went to my iPhone and iPad, made sure they were pointed at the same network as the printer, and once again the printer appeared on each device as an AirPrint printer.  Great I thought, so printed a  test a page from each device.  Both pages printed.  Now here is where it gets weird.
    4.  I tried to print a second document from the iPad and iPhone, nothing.  I tried a picture.  Nothing.  It still shows eveything setup correctly, the HP shows as the AirPrint printer and connected, but no matter what I do, it nothing is printing from either device.  I've tried resetting my network settings on the iPhone and iPad and pointing to the network again, re-running the HP setup Wizard on the printer.  They all show that everything is fine.  The iPhone and iPad connect to the network fine, both show the printer when I go to print.  However, after I hit the "print" button on either device, it shows like the document is being sent but NOTHING happens on the HP.  It is very frustrating. 
    The WiFi is working fine, I can surf, email, etc... so the router is working properly.  So what am I missing?  Could the HP update somehow have caused the problem?  I have to believe that between the update and the new router that somewhere I am missing a step.  Any help is greatly appreciated. 

    If that doesn't work, try power cycling your router, printer, and your iPad/iPhone in that order. To do this, follow these steps:
    Unplug the router and printer from the power and shut off the i-devices. Let them sit for about 30 seconds and then plug just the router in.
    Once the router is completely back online (usually takes about 30-60 seconds) plug the printer in. Wait until it is back on its home screen.
    Turn the i-devices on.
    Try to print again.
    Let me know if this helps!
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • HT4528 I have 3 iPhones, one Ipad, and two PC's that I have tried to "connect" using one iTunes account and am having issues.I connected iPhone #3 to one PC, it removed all contacts from iPhone #3, replaced w/ contacts from iPhone #2. How can I get back?

    I have 3 iPhones, one iPad and 2 PC's, all using the same iTunes account.  I want to be able to have each iPhone keep their own list of accounts and music list and the I pad different as well.  I want to 2 PC's music list to match.  How do I do this?
    Additionally, when I connected iPhone #3 to one PC, it removed the contacts from #3 and replaced it with contacts from iPhone #2.  How do I get those contacts back and prevent this from happening again?

    Hey joshuafromisr,
    If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
