Ipad is slow, acting clogged. What can I do to clean it up?

my iPad is acting very sluggish and slow. I don't know what to do to make it run better.

Try clearing the recently used apps by double pressing the home button and dragging them up.
Take a back up of photos and music before deleting the not so frequent ones.
Hope this helps.

  • So I just updated to the newest update that was available for safari and iTunes but now it won't let me go on the Internet using safari and  it also won't let me sync my songs ,,,,,it takes forever to back up my iPad AND my iPod so what can I do ?

    So I just updated to the newest update that was available for safari and iTunes but now it won't let me go on the Internet using safari and  it also won't let me sync my songs ,,,,,(it takes forever to backup my iPad AND my iPod) so what can I do ?

    If you're on windows try the following:
    This worked for me an hour ago and has allowed me to sync ok. Still haven't tried downloading the new version 5 to the phone yet as I'm still backing up photos etc just in case.
    1. Quit itunes
    2. Start an elevated command prompt (Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> right click Command Prompt -> Run as Administrator)
    3. Once in the command prompt type the following 3 words starting where your cursor is flashing: netsh winsock reset
    4. press ENTER
    5. Reboot your machine
    6. Restart itunes & connect device to sync
    7. Good luck

    hi, i just bought an ipad.my problems is the privious owner dont reset the apple id.i just reset the ipad.now i cant active the ipad with my apple id.what can i do?

    You will have to contact the previous owner and ask him/her to remove the iPad from their account, he/she is the only person that can do it : Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account - you won't be able to use the iPad until they do so.

  • My iPad does not start. What can be the problem

    My iPad does not start. What can be the problem

    Does anything happens when you try to switch it on ? If not, then assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My Macbook pro 2011 suddenly has a really slow bootup. What can I do?

    My Macbook pro 2011 suddenly has a really slow bootup. What can I do? I did install a cannon printer upgrade and security upgrade. Not sure if it was something to do with that. Also I tried the disk utility repair and didn't improve anything. I also reset PRAM and SMC.

    1. Try booting in e Verbose mode - press and hold [cmd] + [v] keys just right after the boot chord sounds till you get a black screen and white letters.
    if there are some delays in the boot process  -  you should see where the system is stuck.
    this mode is not permanent - the next [re-] boot will be normal.
    2. repair permissions. disk utility does fine. Disk Warrior is better.
    sometimes after half done updates (it may happen though should not) there are items that are "belonging to someone else"
    3. try  cache cleaner (or there are some other utilities as well - I just like SlCC  more)  http://www.northernsoftworks.com/snowleopardcachecleaner.html - it's shareware though the basic functionality is free for you to use.
    Try caches -> deep cleaning (please read the developers site what it does) and select checkmark at all options - reply yes to the requests and after a reboot the next reboot should be as it is intended.
    p.s be sure you do have backup

    My ipad will not turn off what can i do ?

    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.
    Let it start up completely and then you can shut down if you want to do so.

  • My iPad is not charging. What can I do ?

    My iPad is not charging. What can I do ?

    Are you using an iPad charger? If you're using iPhone ones they don't work well because they give out half the power the iPad wants.
    If you're using the right charger, try giving your ipad a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds until the Pad reboots. Then try to charge again.
    You can also try swapping out the charger if you have a spare, and the cable, to see if they're the issue.

  • My Mac is slowing down. What can I do to speed it up?

    My Mac is recently showing signs of slowness. What can I do to speed it up? It is  MacBook Pro (Non-Retina) Early 2012.

    First: check your hard disk's free space is between 1x and 2x your RAM. This is nedded for a good virtual memory operation.
    Be sure the HD is OK (check SMART Status in System Profiler) and verify the volume in Disk Utility.
    Download Mountain Lion Cache Cleaner and perform:
    1)
    - premission control
    - scripts cleaning
    - prebindigs rebuilding
    Restart when asked.
    2) restart MLCC and perform all & deep cache cleaning.
    Restart
    The computer should be slow but will become faster as much as you use it.
    Be sure the HD is OK (check SMART Status in System Profiler) and verify the volume in Disk Utility.
    Good Luck!!!
