Iphone 5s lagging and freezing on ios 8.1.1

Anyone from Apple who can help? Before I throw out my iphone 5s out the window!!! Lagging and freezing came about after updating to IOS 8.1.1, done everything to fix it, hard reset and restore to factory settings included. Its still the same.. it lags and freezes on everything I do.. wish I could just downgrade it back to 8.0 which I've been told is no longer possible. The latest IOS update didn't help either. I think its official, my iphone is now a pieces of worthless crap..

If you did a restore as new and still have issues, it could be a hardware problem.
I would schedule an appointment with the Genius bar and take it in to Apple and have it looked at.
You don't have a hacked or jailbroken device?

Why is my iphone 5 rebooting and freezing under iOS 7?

My iPhone 5 worked perfectly every day for a year. Now that I've upgraded to iOS 7 it freezes frequently and reboots itself every few hours. What is wrong and how can I fix it?

I take it you've got the original iPhone 5?
If so, I highly recommend that you switch these off in Settings:
1) WiFi
2) Bluetooth
3) Mobile Data (internet usage via 3G etc)
Don't leave them running for long periods, they'll drain your battery at an alarming rate, even with Mobile Data turned on, your battery won't last for more than 3 days!!
Mobile Data is found in 'Mobile' in settings.
Also, some Settings that will cause a fairly gradual drain are:
1) Privacy>Location services>System Services - Turn off: Location based iAds, and Location Services (uses GPS)
2) GPS - Turn off
3) Change your Brightness to the second "s" in brightness
4) iTunes and Appstore settings - turn off automatic download updates if your really desperate
5) General>background App Refresh - Turn off
Note that some apps make extensive use of internet, eg. Facebook and Twitter and such, you'll have to manage these much tighter than normal. As in, don't leave them running in the background, quit those apps, as they'll keeping using the internet (checking for updates) when not in use by the user.
After you've done these, make a note of the percentage battery at the time, and leave it in sleep mode for an hour. If it's used about 1% or none, then you're back to normal battery usage, and it's fixed it.
Let us know what happens.

IPad 3 A1430 lag and freeze with ios 8.1.2

Good morning , after updating in September my ipad to ios 8 , I have a device unusable.
Continuous blocks of the keyboard , slow applications , safari crash frequently.
Is not possible to have a similar bad situation.
I am very angry because is not possible go back to ios7.
I was go to an apple store but them was told that is not possible do anything.
I spent 400 € 1 year ago and now I have a device unusable.
Congratulations.....
I don't have a words...

When you say restore with iTunes do you mean "restore to Factory"? A simple restore does not replace the iOS image. A restore to Factory will reload the iOS software..
When you experience keyboard lags these are likely caused by a high priority system activity which is abnormally constantly running. This could be being provoked by some app you are using.

IPhone 3gs lags and freezes up constantly...

I have a 3gs that constantly freezes up when im using data, using apps and it's also saying i have no service in areas that i normally have full bars. I'm just wondering if I restore my iPhone as a new one, will this help the problem. I've tried restoring form a backup, that hasn't worked.. Just wanted to check before i do this, so i don't end up losing everything and it dose not solve my problem.

I don't know if restoring as a new phone will fix it, but you have nothing to lose. You can restore as a new phone, check it out, then restore your backup later (as long as you don't sync the restored phone).

Why is my ipod touch 5g lagging and freezing in Safari?

Especially when the webpage has pictures/photos/visuals/graphics, Safari lags and freezes hugely and is basically inoperable. I've tried resetting the device (holding home buttona and sleep button at same time until apple logo appears) but doesn't help. What's going on? I'm very dissapointed at Apple.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>Safari and Dlete Cookies, Data and History
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Firefox lags and freezes several times in an hour - How to fix?

I've read up on the forums and nothing seems to be describing what I'm experiencing with Firefox.
The last 3-4 days I've had several instances where Firefox lags or completely freezes up when switching between tabs. It will still somewhat work but it's ridiculously slow.
For example, it WILL eventually go to that tab, but it will take a minute, and then nothing on the page will work for a minute, so on and so on. Sometimes a black screen will appear where the text should be. Sometimes it stays black, sometimes the page eventually loads. It was only one website so I thought maybe that page was having issues until today when it started happening on several other websites.
It's happening quite often and it's driving me crazy. I only had an error message once, early on when this started. Since then it just seems to lag and freeze, lag and freeze, over and over without giving me an error message until I get fed up and close out of it. Upon start up again, it works fine for a bit.
I don't use any toolbars. I updated Windows and my drivers. Computer has been restarted several times since this started.
I'd appreciate any suggestions!

Hello EMA1, try to run [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode firefox in safe mode], works ?
If firefox in safe mode has the same behavior then, try to boot your win 8 computer in [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2809468/en-us Windows Safe Mode with network support] and check firefox again. Any luck ?
thank you

My computer is lagging and freezing.

MacBook lagging and freezing

I have a MacBook Pro (Late 2011). Processor 2.7 GHz intel Core i7, memory 4GB.
I upgraded it with SSD and instead of CD-ROM I put my old Hard Drive. So now I have two hard drives. New SSD (samsung EVO) and old HDD. I installed OS x on new SSD and it's been running very smooth and fast.
Once, I dropped my mac from the couch and there was a beeping noise like a siren. I turned off the computer, then turned it on and it was working fine. Everything worked fine for 3-4 days.
Then, it started lagging. I constantly have a spinning wheel, macbook freezes, it is impossible to do anything even to write an email. Since I have two hard drives, I was able to boot my mac from the old hard drive and it wasn't lagging. Also, when I tried to access files from SSD it was freezing again. Therefore, I assumed that the problem is with the SSD. I tried reseting SMC , NVRAM, booting in safe mode, repairing hard drive, repairing permissions and stuff like that. NOTHING HELPS!! Also, the SMART status for SSD is Verified. Then I completely erased SSD and decided to reinstall OS x. I installed it, but even while installing I could tell it would be lagging, because it was so slow. And yes, after installation of OS x it lags, freezes and all I see is a spinning ball.
Also, I have another macbook pro. So I was able to take my SSD out and connect to another macbook. When I connected it, it worker perfectly on another macbook. So the issue is not with the SSD. Moreover, I connected the SSD from that macbook to my computer, in order to see if something wrong with other parts(not SSD). When I started my computer with another SSD, it wasn’t lagging or freezing, but I can notice that it is slower then it used to be and sometimes you can see spinning balls. However, it was working better. Booting time was also reduced. Then I tried to swap RAM, it didn’t give me any result.
Also, when I connect my SSD to my macbook it starts lagging and freezing again.
So RAM is not an issue. To summarise, the SSD that I thought is a problem, might not be an only issue. Since it was working perfectly fine on another macbook. Even though another SSD worked fine on my laptop, I could still see that it slower and less productive (spinning wheel). So, the issue might be with something else. And I have no idea what is it might be.

Third party 'cleaning' apps should be avoided. They will not help and all to often with hurt performance.
I have booted in safe boot and it seems to operate just fine there with no lagging.
That is a sign that you have a third party application that is affecting your system. Essentially you have to remove all of them and reinstall them individually until you identify the culprit. Down load Etrecheck and post the result and we may be able to speed up the process if it shows a possible candidate:

Why my Firefox keeps lagging and freezing when scrolling on Facebook?

When scrolling through Facebook it keeps lagging and freezing for a few seconds, and when it happens it says "Connecting..." on the tab title. It keeps happening while I'm scrolling in the Facebook page, and if I leave the tab with Facebook working all Firefox looks a little laggy.
I've tried some possible solutions here in the support but it keeps happening.
It doesn't happen with others browser, such as Chrome.

Why is my iPhone 5 screen glitching up and freezing? iOS 7.0.3

I bought an iPhone 5 brand new as my phone with Sprint at the beginning of September this year (so it is just over 2 months old). I have never had an iPhone before so I updated to iOS 7 basically as soon as it came out and didn't really have any troubles with it. I waited to update it again and got iOS 7.0.3. and I think the glitching MAY have come along with it.
When it first started, I would be using my phone and scrolling down the page but then the pixels will discolor in a vertical line pattern and I can still see what is on the screen. I would press the center button and it would go back to the screen and I woul wait for the pixels to return to normal. Now, however, it is getting more severe and there are random patterns of vertical lines and the screen will gradually go to white and freeze up. Then, when the backlight automatically goes off and I press the top button, then it will backlight a black screen and I can't do anything. When I tried to take a screen shot, the photos came out clearly without any issues.
I got really worried because tonight it stayed like that for about 10 minutes and when I plugged the charger into the phone, it didn't do anything.
Here are some photos that show the problems I am having:
This was when I opened a pin on the pinterest app. (I apologize for the quality of the photos, they were taken on my old mac)
This was after I opened the app store. You can see the line issues, discoloration, and distortion of the top menu.
In the last photo you can pick up the discoloration around the flower and horizontal discoloration of lines.
I have had my phone in an Otterbox the entire time that I have owned it and have not dropped it or had any water issues (dropping it in water, spilling water on it)
What is going on with my phone? I am very worried and would not want this mess to prevent me from receiving a phone call or text. Please help!
Thank you,
Erika

Why does my iPhone 4s lag so much on iOS 8.1.1

1. There is no Apple here in this user to user technical forum.
2. We users can care less if you switch over to an Android - stating it here holds no value.
3. What troubleshooting steps have you done

IPhone 5 lagging and group messages.

i got my iphone the day it came out and it has been lagging and even freezing on me. when i scroll through my pages and sometimes exit an app it slows down and even stops working sometimes. i also have a problem with my group messages. i get my notifications 30 seconds after the message comes in. its very annoying because ill be in my imessage app and the notification pops up after i have already responded to the message. any help or tips please? i dont have too many apps and i have around 6 GB of space left so i dont have too much stuff. and i dont have apps running in the backgroup when this stuff happens. im on AT&T if that helps. anything i can do please help.

I'm having a similar problem with my iPhone 4S! My 4S would lag horribly when I'm being bombarded with text message in the Group Message. It has gotten to points where the phone would freeze for a good 5 seconds. I'm extremely upset, this problem has never occured before and the 4S is supposed to still be able to keep up as of speed. I'm not sure if this was is a software issue or not, but I hope it is just an iOS6 issue that can be patched. I didn't have this problem when I was on iOS5. I also didn't spend $700 on a phone that's supposedly the fastest iPhone as little as a year ago, and now it's lagging like it's 2 generations behind.
Please, can someone help.

10.8.3 rendered my MBP to lag and freeze (and other issues)

Okay. I have a Macbook Pro 9,1 (non-retina, Mid-2012). After installing 10.8.3 through App Store, my computer begins to lag, and it would completely freeze in about 2 hours or so. It starts with one application 'not responding' and it would spread to other applications. When I try to Force Quit, that Force Quit window would freeze as well. None of my keyboard, track pad etc would work. I had to force shut down by holding the Power button.
I have done the following:
Restart
Restart with 'Reopen Windows when logging back in' off
SMC Reset
PRAM Reset
Hardware Test
Disk Permission Repair
Repair Disk
Reinstall OS
Reinstall using COMBO Update
fsck -fy in Single User Mode
I also checked the ~Library/Logs/Diagnostic Log and Uninstalled (with official uninstaller) EyeConnect (who crashed in the background for about 8 times during my 24hrs use of 10.8.3.)
While going through that list, I found issues in kernel_task taking up a lot of RAM (1+ GB in normal mode) (~400 GB in safe mode). The free RAM would also be miniscule just before the multiple freezes I had.
Booting through Safe mode, after about 2 minutes or so after boot, My RAM looks like this:
(No Free Space, Wired taking up 6GB...) The Animation would be very choppy and I would be using Nvidia Graphics Card (GT-650M) instead of Intel Graphics 4000, when nothing graphic intensive is up. Some Post floating in the Support Communities also mentioned how the VRAM for Intel Graphics 4000 shrunk from 512MB to 384MB. I think I have the same problem as well.
I've been to Apple Store/Genius Bar Twice: They basically said I should wipe the computer and hope for the best. They also checked my Hardware, and it seems alright.
I thought of rolling back to 10.8.2 through Time Machine, but for some reasons, my HDD (through Thunderbolt) would not mount when booted from the recovery partition. It's there in Disk Utility, just won't mount. When accessing the HDD through USB 3.0, my most recent back-ups are not present, with the most recent update from March 2nd. (March 3rd ~ March 18th Missing.)This shouldn't be the case, as I back up multiple times every day. I am also able to view the recent dates through Time Machine ('Enter Time Machine' from the menu bar).
I think the only thing left I could do would be Rolling back to March 2nd or Wiping my computer to factory settings. Both I'm quite reluctant to do so, for obvious reasons.
Hypothesis on the issue: I think it's the RAM management gone wrong, causing the computer to lag+freeze so much. I predict the wipe won't help much. But we won't know what will happen unless we do it, I guess...
Did I mention about the sleep problems I had before 10.8.3? I'll skip those since it's not fatal, but they're not resolved in 10.8.3 as well. I installed 10.8.3 hoping to solve those problems, only to get even more problems Help Please? Thanks!

Problem with my iphone 4s. screen and icons shaking. ios 5.1. please help thanks apple.

good day apple. can you help me with my iphone 4s 5.1. SCREEN AND ICONS ARE SHAKING. what am going to do. thanks

okay. I tried the airplane mode and do not disturb on and off thing, resetting the network settings and all settings, restoring the iPhone using iTunes, draining phone using flashlight, reheating the phone using hair dryer and freezing the phone.. the freezing makes my wifi work again but it only last a couple of hours and I didn't want to try it anymore because I'm afraid it may cause another problem to my phone if I keep doing that.
