IPad keeps shutting down, iPad keeps shutting down

What can I do to stop my iPad from suddenly and frequently closing a program (safar, iTunes, flipboard) ?  I have the original iPad 5.1.1 versio .  All suggestions are welcome.
Thank you
Susanfrom huntingdonValley

App instability can usually fixed by:
Quitting all apps: Double-tap the Home button, hold an app icon until it wiggles, tap for each app, then double-tap the Home button again
Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)

  • If I reload my iPad back to default through iTunes back to original do I lose my apps?  Safari keeps shutting down and I'd like to give this a shot.

    I hope you have a backup if you don't want to lose your iPad contents. You have to restore the iPad now using iTunes on your computer. That's what the message on the screen means.
    Take a look at this.

  • My new AirPort Extreme keeps shutting down and kicking my ipad and iPhoto off while sometimes showing a good connection in utilities but utilities showing no connection.

    My new AirPort Extreme keeps shutting down. The status light is off. If I unplug and re-plug it comes back on and reconnects. Also, it disconnects my iPad and iPhone even though the status light is green. I go to airport utilities and the internet dot is amber and the base station is green. I check wireless clients and both iPad and iPhone show excellent connection but are not connected. If I disconnect and re-connect it restores connection. My old AirPort Extreme never had this problem. I read a couple of comments from owners with similar problems and you pushed it off on the iMac or other things. I hope you have an answer for me!

    If it has power, an Extreme's status light should never be off.
    Try another power outlet. If it still doesn't work, return or exchange it for a new one.

  • IPad keeps shutting down and discharging

    I've just updated ipad software now it keeps continually shutting down and discharging battery whilst in sleep mode,.  Can't do anything as turns off every 10 seconds

    You should try restoring the iOS software now if resetting the iPad did not help. This explains how to do it. I hope that you have a backup, because restoring the software erases the device, but you have the opportunity to restore from the back after the software is installed again.

    Pay close attention to the very end of this article - the section titled Additional Information. That will take to a link that instructs you how to use Recovery Mode to restore if the first method does not work for you.

  • Why does my iPad email app keep shutting down?

    I just purchased my iPad 2 3G last week, so I am a new iPad/Apple user.  I really like the product and now wonder why I have stayed loyal to the Windows PC for so long.  I'm still looking for some of those useful PC keys and keystroke shortcuts that I am so accustomed to, but I am adapting.
    My iPad mail app keeps shutting down on me, whether I am typing a message or just reviewing/managing my mail.  I use a bluetooth keyboard, so it is not a matter of me bumping the touch screen that is causing the app to close.
    I have lost a lot of important business emails while composing them and eventually stopped using my iPad to compose email.
    Is there a setting controlling this or is it a program glitch?
    Thanks.

    Pam-
    It could be that the battery charge indicator is showing 100 percent when you actually have almost no charge left.  In case that is the problem, leave your iPad connected to its wall charger overnight, and see if that helps.
    One other thing to try, is to reset (reboot) your iPad.  Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.  Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes solves mysterious problems.

    No one here can answer that. Try a reset (hold the home and power keys down until the Apple logo appears). If that does not help, take it in for diagnosis.

    Because there is something wrong with the iPad? Try restoring the device with iTunes. Start with that.

  • My iPad keeps shutting down out of all apps.

    My iPad keeps shutting down out of all apps.  If on FB, camera, messages, etc.  It will just go to a black screen and then back to desk top.  Could it have a virus, what should I do?

    Hi iPaduser58,
    If you haven't already done so, you may want to restart or reset the iPad:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    Restarting your iOS device
    1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    2. After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your device
    If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If the above does not resolve your issue, the next best step will be to restore your iPad using a computer with iTunes. Please be sure to backup your iPad first.

  • My ipad keeps shutting down and then rebooting

    My Ipad keeps shutting down and rebooting, is this fixable?

    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. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My iPad keeps shutting down or Apps keep closing

    My iPad keeps shutting down or apps keep closing.

    Just wondering if you all remember when it started for you. I updated my iPad classic to v5 and i remember that it also did an auto update though iCloud a few days after that. I think mine started shutting down apps and safari after the iCloud update not with the first update to 5 over my computer. Is this happening to people with iPhones and it so which iPhone do you have?  I don't use an iPhone but my husband and son have the 3GS and I have not updated them yet or my sons iPad  I'm waiting to see if they fix this. I can't believe I got this typed and posted before safari shuts down and I have to start over. One more thing my iPad is not jailbreak.
