Ipad mini (1st. gen) stuck in headset mode

AFTER UPDATING TO IOS 8 NOW BOTH OF MY MINI IPADS (1ST GEN) ARE STUCK ON HEADSET MODE... HELP!!!!!

I had the exact same problem with my iPhone a few months ago. I was in the middle of an update and it told me to connect to iTunes while it was already connected, but then stayed frozen. I tried restoring, removing the sim card, reinstalling iTunes, using a different computer, everything. Unfortunately you'll probably have to take it to the Apple store like I did. They wiped out my phone and fixed the problem in about 2 seconds, but they did it in the back room so I have no idea what they actually did. Probably worked their Mac Genius magic or something. Sorry :\

IPad Mini 1st Gen Springboad Won't Go Into Landscape Mode

After updating to iOS 8.0.2, I noticed that my iPad Mini 1st Gen will not go into landscape mode anymore when in the Springboard. When I'm in an app it works, but as soon as I press home it goes straight back into portrait. I checked all the settings and everything seems to be ok including the options for the rotation lock/mute button. Even the rotation option in the control centre is off. I have no clue what's going on. Can someone shed some light?

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that fixes it : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Or there is an iOS update, version 8.1, which has just been released - one of the fixes listed for it, from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1758, is

I'm going to guess videos buffer for a while also...
Two possibilities, one is you should close apps on the iPad, the other is your internet speed is not able to handle the demands of a high speed device.
To close apps: Double click home button, swipe up to close the apps.
To solve internet problem, contact your provider. Basic internet is not enough for video games and movies. Your router may be old and slow.

Can't open numbers on my iPhone 5S and iPad mini (1st Gen.) after updating to the new version 2.0.1. Please help!

Okay , you should only delete EMPTY DUPLICATED folders, not preview folders or any others. I would put them all back. Then just delete any DUPLICATED EMPTY folders, do not disturb any other folders. On iOS switch off DOCUMENTS AND DATA under ICLOUD in SETTINGS. Do this on all iOS devices not just the one. Once deleted DUPLICATE FOLDERS on the mac in MOBILE FOLDERS then exit the LIBRARY. Open PAGES on your MAC and view folders on icloud. Check everything is all there as expected. If okay then DELETE and re-install PAGES app on iOS - THEN switch on DATA and DOCUMENTS in ICLOUD. Now open PAGES. If you have Time Machine on you can recover any 'lost' doc files and restore them from your mac from pages application. Try the process again and do not disturb any folders other than ones I mentioned as this is the system files LIBRARY. It is not a place to be over zealous in moving, altering and deleting folders and files. Take care please.

Ipod touch(1st gen) stuck in recovery mode and cannot restore??

I just bought a used ipod touch 1st gen. It was fully functional before I wiped it. I wanted to remove all of the other person's music and personal info before I started using it. I also wanted to update ios. I wiped it and when it restarted it was in recovery mode. I have tried to restore it and I keep getting an error message that it could not restore unknown error has occurred (1). I have tried troubleshooting and going through all of the steps that Apple suggests and nothing has worked. Any suggestions? I just want it restored and updated to the latest ios that will work with it (3.1.1 I believe) I don't know what to do at this point.

ERROR (1)
- Place the iPod in DFU mode and then restore

My Ipad Mini 1st Gen has been screwed since I updated to IOS 8.0.2!! HELP!

My photo apps are always crashed and keep showing the message "restoring", Safari keep crashing, email apps keep crashing. and after app crashing it freezed at the apps page for 3-15 mins. I have already tried to turn off all the features in setting to reduce processing memories but yet it's useless except scrolling are smoothers, but none of above issues have resolved.
I tried to factory reset my Ipad mini and restore again unfortunately it always show the error msg: " the synchronization are unable to complete due to the device has terminated."
I never have a synchronization completely after I updated to IOS 8.
I had 21GB of photos in my iPad mini which was imported from my DSLR. are there anyway for me to export it out again???

Hello Jm23ur,
After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing performance issues with your device. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
How to restart
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
How to reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,
BobbyD

[iPad Mini 1st Gen.] Can't send E-Mails with the normal "Mail" App

Hi,
I can't send E-Mails with the normal E-Mail App, it works only with another Mail App, but then I can't send pictures. Maybe my new router is the cause, but it works with my iPhone 5, only with my iPad mini it doesn't work.Well, how I can solve the problem?
Sorry for my bad English.
Many Greetings from Germany.

Hi,
i can't change the iCloud SMTP Server settings for outgoing E-Mails.It isn't possible to make these "How to" (or how i can call it?) and the moves before i have already done and the issue haven't solved. I think my iPad mini is to old....
Many greetings,
xbdsmallwork
Edit: I have a iCloud Mail Account.

Can I use my iPad mini 1st Gen nano-sim w/iPad Mini with Retina?

I have an original AT&T iPad mini with LTE..works great. Can I get an LTE iPad mini with Retina or LTE iPad Air and put the nano-sim in that and have it work? I assume it would work but wanted to make sure!
I have an existing AT&T monthly plan with my original iPad mini...want to move that over to the new unit.
Let me know if you have done this or any thoughts..thanks!
Frank

Contact AT&T. I believe you have to set up a new account on the new iPad and cancel the account on the old iPad.
 Cheers, Tom

IOS 7 Game Center iPad Mini (1st Gen)

Why does the Game Center stop working on my iPad mini? I never had this problem until recently. I don't have this problem on my 4S and yes I have reset the content but I'm not gonna do it to my settings every time this stupid thing decides to act up. Is there another solution or at least a reason why this is happening??? It's very frustrating since we need it to work in order to play the games

Mini 1st Gen has Severe Issues After Update

Following the recent update, my Mini 1st Gen began showing various small issues. Last night, it randomly quit, and went to the lock screen, but the screen image was magnified hugely, 10x, and I was unable to maneuver into the password area. I attempted numerous hard resets, just getting the same unresponsive huge lock screen, and I was unable to completely shut the Mini off and restart. Eventually, it reverted back to normal spontaneously. Again tonight, it randomly went to the huge lock screen, same story, it seems as if it won't magically revert at this point though, rendering it unusable, at a time that I really need to use it. I'm beyond frustrated between the issues it was exhibiting: very slow loading, spotty internet connectivity, switching pages or areas without prompt, poor touchscreen response, randomly making words in messages all caps, or spacing them oddly, highlighting rather than performing the action when pressing webpage keys like 'Enter'....that's the start. I was frustrated then, but to have a completely unresponsive device now is infuriating me, as I see this is a universal issue.
I'm not sure what to do now, short of a complete reset from a laptop, which, despite saving to the cloud faithfully, will make me even more upset. We have faithfully owned and used Apple products...I still have the 1st Touch, and 1st IPad, plus numerous phones and other ipads along the way. So, not only are our devices rendered all but obsolete at an almost yearly basis, making their lifespan as the best, fully functional unit, with all available utilities at service, 1-3 years at BEST, forcing either an upgrade or resignation to the fact that your 8 month old device is no longer the newest available...so we have to deal with that. Then, there's the forced limited memory issue, which makes saving things to anything other than 'clouds' or expanding space not an option. Ok. Now, we have to deal with these incessant space gobbling IOS updates and mini updates to fix the last update which was supposed to fix glitches from the last update, yet manage to make our devices perform even worse, if, now, they bother working at all. To fix this issue, completely unrelated to consumer use-one must completely scrub their device and re-install months or years of info (if you are good and backed-ed it up!). This boggles my mind. Once or twice after initial IOS tests? Ok, I get that. But at this point, installing updates is like inviting a Pandora's Box to be opened, with no clue of the effect it will have, good or bad..,although it's getting worse and worse. All this with nary a comment, even a sympathetic nod from Apple. Certainly no reimbursement for the countless losses of time, money, apps, information, work or school...life interruptions. Just a new version every year and an open hand for payment. It's truly disheartening for loyal customers & consumers as a whole.

Double-tap the screen with three fingers to turn off Zoom. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom and turn this Off.
Also make sure that none of the items in Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut are checked.

N97 stuck in headset mode

I connected my phone up to my stereo via the headphone jack. And when I unplugged it, it didn't register this. Now it's stuck in headset mode with the little headphone icon in the top right. I can't answer any calls as it sends it through to the headphones and I can't bluetooth music to my car either.
I have tried switching off and then on again, and tried connecting the headphones that came with it in the hope that when I unplugged them it would fix itself. On a separate issue I can't connect it to my pc so I can't back anything up, to do a hard re-set.
Any suggestions?

Mine is doing exactly the same thing.
The only way for me to get rid of the headphones mode is to turn it off and turn it back on again then when it asks 'Select accessory', I press 'Cancel'. And even tho it is not yet in headphone mode if I try to put on the FM Transmitter it says 'Unable to activate FM transmitter while enhancement is connected'.
Since nobody replied to my thread I am just hanging out till the firmware v12.0.024 update is available before I take it back to the store.

Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
       until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.
