IPad keeps closing or kicking me out

When using safari or even on app store browsing apps. The iPad suddenly closes. It's been happening for 2 weeks. Could it be a virus

It's definitely not a virus. There isn't any malware of any kind for iPads. (Unless you have jailbroken it, but we're not allowed to discuss such things here.)
I would first recommend resetting your iPad. Press and hold both the home button and the sleep/wake button for about 10 seconds, until the screen turns off. Ignore the slider that will appear. Release the buttons, then press and hold the sleep/wake button until the Apple logo appears. This is the equivalent of a reboot, and should not affect your data or apps.
If that doesn't help, connect it to iTunes on your computer and restore it using the latest backup.

  • TS3274 My iPad keeps closing out of apps ...

    My iPad keeps closing out of apps, wouldnt let me delete email..is my memory too full.

    Did you try either of these?
    Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reboot 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.
    What do you mean it wouldn't let you delete your mail? Is the mail app crashing? You can swipe across the email in the preview window in order to delete it. You do not have to open the email in order to delete it.

    my ipad keeps closing my programs

    You may have too much going on in the background.
    Double tap the home button to bring up your recent apps. Hold down on one of the app icons until they all wiggle. Then tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the apps and to close them. Close all of your apps. Tap the home button to stop the wiggling then tap the screen. Now reboot - hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and then let go of the button.
    You can also try a reset by holding down on the sleep button and home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.

  • IPad keeps closing apps

    I have an iPad mini and recently it's been acting up on me.
    It keeps closing the apps I'm trying to open, as if they're crashing. I've tried to delete the apps, reinstall them, restart the iPad, "shock-start" it and resetting it and nothing works.
    Especially the Facebook app keeps closing and the few times I actually get in, the picture keeps freezing and the whole thing just locks for a few seconds.
    I don't know what else to do. I'm not sure if it's a problem with my apps (it's not every app that closes, but most of them) or if it's something with the iPad.
    If anyone has any suggestion, I would be forever grateful!

    Hi there NinusenS,
    At this point, I would recommend backing up all of your data, restore the device with iTunes, and set it up as a new device. After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
    If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
    If the issue is now resolved, sync one type of content at a time back to the device. For example, if you had an issue playing music, add songs from iTunes and confirm they will play. If your contacts weren't loading successfully, add the contacts back. After each sync, test to see if the issue has returned.
    Take a look at the article below for more information on how to back up and restore your data.

  • Why does my iPad 1st gen constantly kick me out of apps?

    Why does my iPad close apps every minute or so while I'm using them?  It's frustrating!   Do I need to reset it to factory settings?

    Double click the home button, hold down an app icon, and press the red X. Do that for all the apps. You have to clear that, or the device's RAM (temporary memory) gets too full, and starts kicking you out of things.

  • Why does my 1st gen. Ipad keep closing apps?

    Why is my ipad 1 closing applications all the time? Is there a solution?

    Closing apps typically indicates that the app is crashing.
    You might try restoring your iPad by plugging it in to iTunes (latest version: 11.0.4).  Let it sync, then choose "Restore ..." from the iPad's summary page in iTunes.
    You may wish to be selective in which apps you restore to the iPad, as one or more may be corrupt.

  • My iPad has recently been kicking me out of my apps quite frequently.  Is there a problem with the iPad 1 that doesn't support the apps?

    I have an iPad 1 & have been playing games on it for about a year and a half...recently I am having trouble with getting kicked out of various apps & it happens quite frequently.  Is this something that could be related to the iPad1 since we are now up to an iPad 3?  Are the apps having troubles because of the generation, or is it the app itself.....I just want it fixed & don't have any reason nor inclination to upgrade to a 3 right now.  Anyone experiencing something similar?  What do I do?

    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 and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Why does my iPad keep closing safari?

    For the past several months, my iPad continuously closes out of Safari and/or apps that I am using.   It happens often enough to be very annoying, especially when I am in the middle of something.
    I've tried resetting/rebooting but nothing helps.  Any suggestions?

    You are using the original iPad and running iOS 5.1.1. IMO - iOS 5.1.1 really stretched the limits of the original iPad's processor. You are resetting and rebooting so there isn't much else to try other than to keep apps in the recents tray to a minimum, and clear Safari on occasion.
    Start by quitting all apps, clear Safari and then reboot the iPad. See if that helps at all.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. er appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Reboot the iPad. Reboot 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.

  • My iphone 5 will not let me delete emails and open up certain apps like Keep safe and kicks me out of different apps

    My iPhone 5 will not let me delete emails. I trash them and they look like they are deleted and then they will load back in. I cannot open my Keep Safe app after the last update. It said I needed more storage so I upgraded and it still will not load. It opens for a second and then goes to home page.  FB is hit or miss if it will open and when it does it is really slow.  Any suggestions?

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

  • I have an iPad 1.  It continually kicks me out of Facebook and other apps and the Internet.  Help?

    I have an iPad 1 that continually kicks me out of Facebook, some games, and Internet searches.

    Hey there Larry,
    It sounds like your iPad is closing your apps without notice. I would start by closing all the running apps on the iPad first:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that and restart the phone and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
