Ipad2 and iphone4s 'ruined' by ois8

Advice please. Since updating to ios8 the speed and the smooth operation on my ipad2 and iphone4s has vanished. They are both now jerky, as an example, when I type anything I have to wait for it to appear and sometimes the second letter is in front of the first, due to the lag. When capitals are used I am able to type the first letter in capitals before capitals clicks off, as it is supposed to.
Is Apple planing on doing anything about this? If not can I revert to ios7?
Or is it time to look at an Android phone and tablet?
please help.
thanks

Have you tried any of the standard measures to clear these problems?  Such as -
Reset - hold the home button and on/off button down together until the Apple logo appears.
Restore via iTunes

    On your iPhone, try toggling Find My iPhone off, then back on after a few seconds.

  • HT204387 Why can't my ipad2 and iPhone4 and 5 recognise each other as devices using bluetooth?

    Why can't my ipad2 and iPhone4 and 5 recognise each other as devices using bluetooth?
    Bluetooth should allow me to connect to other devices to transfer data like photo's, music, files, whatever between my apple devices and non apple devices.
    Other phones allow me to do this..........what is happening here?
    An unhappy apple devices owner.
    I want to know who I complain to if this is how Apple devices operate.
    Any answers anyone.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • Can books/pdfs saved in iBooks be transferred across devices (iPad2 and iPhone4) with iCloud?

    Can books/pdfs saved in iBooks be transferred across devices (iPad2 and iPhone4) with iCloud?  My documents in Pages is on both the ipad and iphone automatically as soon as i connect both to wifi.  The stuff in ibooks did not do this. Also- I am backing up my phone right now to icloud... it says must be plugged in, connected to wifi, and locked.   So after I do this, all of my icloud-able contents will be available on my ipad??

    You might look into using Dropbox for that.  I use it between Macs but haven't tried it with my Phone.

  • Syncing MacBook iCal with iPad2 and iPhone4

    Without Mobile Me, and while awaiting the iCloud, can iCal entries be synced with iPad2 and iPhone4 and vice versa?

    Thanks for your reply. Problem solved :-). I had to tick the box that said 'automatically sync new apps'  and hey presto. Thanks again for your reply. According to the guy in the Apple store on Regent St in London I would have had to create a new account and use an account for each device. Didn't think that was the answer but I thought they knew best. Obviously not.......

  • My ipad2 and iphone4s won't back up.  I even bought more storage on icloud?

    My ipad2 and iphone4s won't back up.  I have even bought more storage?  Not sure what to do next?

    If you no longer need the backups, you can delete them by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of device you want to delete the backup for (under Backups at the top), then tap Delete Backup.  This will permanently delete it from your account, freeing up the storage it occupies.

  • How do you get ipad2 and iphone4 Bluetooth to recognize each other? I tried turning on Bluetooth on both devices, but they can't detect each other

    I have been having a lot of trouble connecting my ipad2 and iphone4 via Bluetooth. My iPad detects every other phone nearby except my iPhone. It does not even detect my wife's iphone4. It does detect my daughter's iphone 3S. The is very weird cause my iPhone is on iOS5, while my daughter's iphone3 is on the older iOS.
    My iphone4 is simply unable to detect any other Bluetooth devices, apple device or otherwise.
    This is very frustrating indeed when such advanced devices cannot do a simple function.a
    Help anyone??

    my problem exactly. Did you ever figure it out? I had to resort to turning off labels in the web interface for Gmail. Not ideal

  • Kindle or ibooks version of an ebook, which should i purchase for my ipad2 and iphone4s?

    If there is a kindle version Using kindle app)  and an ibooks version of an ebook, which version should I purchase for my ipad2 and iphone 4s if I have the choice and why?

    No, and due to ebooks tending to have digital rights management on them you will only be able to read a book in that store's app or e-reader. For Kindle books you will need to download them in the Kindle app on the iPad, and I assume for Nook that you also download them manually in the app - as far as I know the iCloud only works with the iBooks app. For Kindle :
    Whispersync automatically synchronizes your bookmarks and your reading location among devices registered to the same Amazon.co.uk account and is enabled by default. When you open a Kindle book you are also reading on another device, you are given the choice to go to the furthest page read if you are further ahead on the other device

  • No AirPrint Printer found on iPad2 and iPhone4

    I can print wirelessly via a D-Link DIR-636L router from my desktop PC fine. However, when I try to print from my iPhone4 or my iPad2, the error message says: "No AirPrint Printer found" and it won't print. I've tried pretty much everything and have looked at all of the troubleshooting tips...still can't get it to work. When I called tech support at D-Link they weren't much of a help. They say it's not on their end because it's getting out to the wireless connection on the iPhone and iPad fine (which it is) and Apple says it's not their problem. Of course HP's tech support says it's not their problem either. I have a HP LaserJet P1102w printer that is brand new.
    Please help!!
    All firmward, drivers and updates have been updated as well.

    Hi,

  • Apple IOS8 upgrade has killed my Ipad2 and Iphone4

    What are my alternatives to achieve functional safari browsing and Wifi use with my Iphone4 and Ipad2.
    If no Apple supported removal of IOS8 is available - I expect that may upgrade will be to a Samsung Note 4.

    i guess Apple doesn't give 2 ***** about the problems the iPad 2 are having . I guess they figure any Apple device owner has disposable income and figures we will just plunk down and upgrade our device. I was so excited to download iOS 8 but what a **** deal tis is !
    What problems are you having and what have you done thus far to investigate/fix?

  • Photo Stream not Working w/ipad2 and iphone4S

    Photostream has been working fine and now I am not getting photos taken with my iphone to transfer to my ipad photstream.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • Syncing issues with ipad2 and iphone4

    Hi, I own both an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4. I want to keep my apps on my iPad solely for my iPad and my apps on my iPhone just for my iPhone. Is there a way to sync both devices to my computer without each device having the same content as each other.

  • Password issues in email on ipad2 and iphone4 ios 5+

    I keep getting the message on both my iphone 4 and ipad 2 that they cannot get mail because my username or password for my gmail account is incorrect.
    I've re-entered the password a number of times both on my phone and ipad to no avail. I went through my laptop and logged out and logged back into gmail with same password successfully.
    I've deleted and re-created the gmail account in mail on my iphone. Same thing.
    I've rebooted my iphone and hardwire synced it. No change.
    These problems occurred Fri. My phone and ipad updated ios at different times but both late this week.
    Sugguestions?

    Good info...I already deleted and re-created my gmail account in mail on my iphone. No help.
    However, I did just encounter something unusual. I tried to access my gmail account through safari on my iphone. When I went to login it texted me a code to put in to verify it was really me. (sounds like what you were saying above). I did it and it let me in. However, I went back to my mail app and it's still giving me the same messages.

  • Macbook Pro, iPad2 and iPhone4 with iOS5

    I have just upgraded iOS5 to iPad and iPhone. I wish to take full advantage of iCloud etc. On my MacBook Pro I have OSX 10.5.8 and a partition for Windows. Do I actually need the partition anymore seen as I have Office Windows for Mac (OWfM) programmes? However, I do not have the OWfM disc anymore. Will I loose my current OWfM programmes by upgrading to Lion? Can I release the segregated memory by removing the partition? Whats the best hard-drive options for back-up as it must be time I covered that senario that will not cost me 100s of $ or £?
    Any suggestions gratefully received
    Neil

    Which version of Office for Mac are you running on your Mac partition? If it is Office for Mac 2004, then upgrading to Lion will render it unusable. If you are running Office for Mac 2008 or newer it will not be an issue. You would want to amke sure you create a Time Machine backup before upgrading to Lion to avoid any program or data loss in the event that the upgrade to Lion goes awry.
    If you are using your Windows partition strictly to use Microsoft Office then you probably don't need the partition since you have Office for Mac.
