IPad quits in the middle of many apps

My I pad seems to quit in the middle of a variety of apps making the unusable.
The most recent was the John Stewart show and the Colbert report. Also a PDF form filler
quits among others.does anyone else have this problem? I have reset it a number of times as suggested.

Hello and welcome.
Try restarting your iPad when this happens, not the same as resetting. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
If apps continue to quit unexpectedtly, connect your iPad to your computer. Launch iTunes. Make sure iTunes recognizes the iPad under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window. Then click: *Check for Update.*
quit in the middle of a variety of apps making the unusable.
If the iPad software is up to date, click Restore then click *Don't Back Up*. The reason being is there might be one or more apps causing the problems.
Once you have restored the iPad, sync several apps at a time from the Apps menu in iTunes then try those apps on the iPad. If it's ok, then try 3 more apps and so on.
And while you have the iPad connected to your computer, look at the bottom of the the iTunes window under any of the tabs and check to make sure there is enough free storage space.

  • Iphone 4 quits in the middle of apps / games / ipod -

    New Iphone 4 (4.2.1) continuously stops in the middle of any app and returns to the home screen. I've closed all safari windows and shut down all apps as well as turned the phone off then back on with no luck. Any suggestions?

    Same problem here, iPhone 4, with 4.2.1 using the iPod app that comes with the phone, music quits after 4-5 minutes. Other apps quit as well. I have shut down all apps, rebooted the phone, still have the same problem.

    After some troubleshooting, I decided to order a new battery.  I replaced the battery and was then able to get it to restore, however--after I restore it and it comes time to restart the phone, it gets stuck and doesn't turn on.
    Sorry, your repair ruined the iPhone.
    She does not have apple care and even though she loved this device, she isn't going to buy another iPhone because of all the problems shes had with this one (it's just over a year old).
    After you ruined the iPhone with DIY, Apple won't touch it anymore. You should have asked before all these had happened.
    I'm an android user myself and I love rooting/flashing new ROMS, so if jailbreaking her phone or doing some kind of super-restore with 3rd party programs might help, I'm all for it-
    Yeah, all Android user can think of is Jailbreaking, read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

    Hi Bev076,
    I would try these ideas first:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If that doesn't resolve the situation, I would suggest reporting it:

    The app quit in the middle of recording a video. I can locate the incomplete file in finder but cannot seem to get it to convert or open....help please!

    iPhoto has no ability to record video - or anything else. Perhaps you mean PhotoBooth? Ask about that on the Using OS X forum for your version of the OS.

    I have changed my Iphone once last year. My iphone has being playing up for the best part of 6 months. It Keeps deleting all my music of the phone. it freezes and will not allow me to turn it on or off. if i am in the middle of an app it will randomly shut it down and turn the phone off totally (even if it is charged.) It will not charge properly, it has to be in a exact position to charge and even then go's off and on. I thought this my be my charger but the charger works fine on another phone. it will not allow texts to come through properly and sometimes will not not let me ring people it just freezes and i have to turn it off and on a couple of times in order for it to work. it will not let me update apps and the silent button is not silent it still go's of on ringer.The keyboard will freeze up not allowing me to type anything.  It wants me to pay £126.44 for it to be repaire when i have nothing to do with why its not working!

    That is correct.
    That is the price of a replacement iphone once your iphone is outside of the warranty period

  • Hp 8600 quits in the middle of a print job

    I have an HP 8600 that when I send a large print job stops printing in the middle when I print from mail merge.  I get no error message on the computer, it just stops printing.  When I check the print job status it gives me an "error - sent to printer" message, but there is no error message on the printer.  I restart the print job from where it left off and it will print a few more and give me the same error message.  So I restart again from where it left off and it will print for a little bit more and stop with another error message.  Each time I restart the printer prints less and less of the job.  Say I have 100 entries to print, I'll get 50 the first time, then 25, then 15, then 5 then...well you get the idea.  Its more than a little frustrating.
    I forgot to mention I am working on a 32bit Windows 7 premium system loaded on a Toshiba Satellite
    I also forgot to mention that when it stops, the last page it prints is blank.

    Hi hp_issed & TXGabe,
    I understand that both of your HP Officejet Pro 8600 printers are not able to print correctly and quit in the middle of jobs.
    What is the firmware version of the printer? click here to find out how to retrieve it.
    Which Windows operating system are you running?
    Is the printer connected via USB, ethernet or wireless?
    Is the power to the printer connected directly into a wall outlet or a surge protector?
    Thank you,
    I worked on behalf of HP.

  • TS1362 some songs quit in the middle of the track even though there is time showing. It goes right to the next song.

    Songs quit in the middle of the track even though there is time showing. It goes right to the next song. Can I fix this or recover the full song?

    I just found out how to solve the problem today
    Go to the original location of the song. Meaning, if the song file is on the desktop then go there and individually click the songs and they'll play on Itunes perfectly fine
    I'm not sure why this happened but I hope that works for you!

    My iMovie quit in the middle of editing a movie.  I have been able to get the movie back, but without all the editing I had already done.  I don't want to have to re-edit it all again (hours) and can't find it anywhere.  I have 809 GB free of 999.35 GB on the hard disk.  Please help!

    Go to your purchase history, click on "report a problem" and report the problem. Apple will respond and they will likely provide a free re-download.

  • How to stop itunes quitting in the middle of playback

    Hi everyone. Does anyone know how to set my iTunes or Mac up so that iTunes won't quit in the middle of playback? I'm streaming to my TV using Apple TV, and after a while, my screen goes blank and when I go back to my computer to check, I find that iTunes has logged out or quit. I've already set my energy saving preferences to 'never sleep' but this still happens and there is no iTunes preference to prevent it from happening. Any help would be most helpful. Thank you!

  • Desktop Manager quits in the middle of sync

    Desktop Manager just quits in the middle of a sync. I've isolated the offending application to calendar sync with MS Outlook. No warnings, no errors, Desktop Manager just stops running. I tried upgrading to the latest version of Desktop Manager 5.0.1.28, no change. I've tried deleting the Intellisync directory and the problem just reappears after recreating the sync settings.
