Iphone Games low res on iPad since upgrading to IOS 5

Hi All,
I noticed something very weird on my iPad 2 since upgrading to IOS 5. I have several iPhone games that I play on a regular basis and just up size them for the iPad. On IOS 4 when I started them up they intially started up in a low resolution mode but within 10 seconds or so switched to what I think was "retina display" resolution which looked WAY WAY better on the iPad. Since upgrading to IOS 5 they no longer do this. They stay in low resolution mode and look fairly bad now. I am so disappointed. Is anyone else seeing this?

I'm seeing this same exact issue.
I started up one of my games and it defaulted to 1x post updating to iOS 5.  When I expand it to 2x, the game looks horrible to the point where the text is almost unreadable.  While it had some pixelation prior to this, it was no where nearly as bad as it is now.
I've been looking through Settings and so far, I've not found anything to fix this issue.  I can handle a game looking a little "off" due to the display size difference.  I can't handle it looking like it's running in 8 bit mode though.  For the money I've spent on this iPad, I am not please by this at all.

  • Iphone 4 icalender alert settings problems since upgrading to IOS 7.1.1

    I have an iphone 4 and since updating to ios 7.1.1 my icalender alert settings automatically change from what i selected.ie I set my event alert as 1 day and second alert as 2 hours but it automatically gets reversed most of the time.

    I'm having the same issue on my iphone 4S since upgrading to IOS 7.1.
    At first I thought is was a carrier problem and I even changed my Sim card for a new one, but it didn't solve the problem.
    Then I put my sim card in another phone and it worked just fine, so I tried:
    Reset network settings,
    Reset all settings,
    Restore my phone with the previous backup,
    Restore my phone as new
    And any of these worked for me. After almost losing hope I turned off my 3g connection and the signal came back, even when I was using wi-fi. Also the battery life is a million times better.
    So I called apple support and they told me that it seams to be a hardware malfunction and because my guarantee is expired I have to pay to get it changed for a new one.
    I think they don't know what they are doing and don't know how to fix it so it's easier to blame the hardware and charge us for they mistakes.
    I'm still waiting for some update to solve my problem because before the update 7.1 I had a perfect functional phone.

  • There is no sound on my iPad  since upgrading to iOS 8.0.2.  I have turned it on and off, and nothing helps.  Any solutions?

    Dear friends of Apple,
    Since upgrading to my iPad Air to iOS 8.0.2., there is no sound coming at all--not even the lock sounds, or keyboard sounds.  I cannot hear any music from iTunes, podcasts....nada.  I have turned it on and off, and nothing helps.   I might have clicked something or other, but anyone have any ideas where I might look for a solution.?
    Thanks,
    Gary

    Try reseting your Ipad. Press and hold on both the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until the Apple logo appears.

  • Since upgrading to iOS 6, I cannot save or transfer photos to iPad or iPhone. Is it a glitch with the upgrade?

    Since upgrading to iOS 6, I cannot save photos to my iPhone or iPad or transfer pictures taken. Is it a glitch with the upgrade?

    Can you be a little more specific? Do you mean that when you take photos with your iPhone camera or iPad camera they are not showing up in the photo stream? Do you mean that you are trying to sync your photos to a computer and that they are not syncing? Just not sure what you are asking?

  • Since upgrading to iOS 8 , my Apple TV second gen stops playback every time my iPhone rings.  Anyone else have this happen?

    Since upgrading to iOS 8 , my Apple TV second gen stops playback every time my iPhone rings.  Anyone else have this happen?

    This is happening to me too. Couldn't figure out what was happening at first then I got a phone call and the ring came through the appletv. Playback was stopping when I would open a game or something else as well.
    I'm on a 5s with ios 8 and have an appletv 3rd Gen(it is updated too). II often airplay movies from my NAS through my iPad min and that stops when something  happens on my phone even though airplay on my phone is off.

  • HT201077 Since upgrading to IOS 7'photos taken on my iPhone are not transferring to the cloud. Sometimes a few will up load but then nothing for weeks. Anyone else had this problem

    Since upgrading to IOS 7 the photographs I take on my iPhone 4S do not transfer to the cloud. Sometimes one or two of them transfer but then none for weeks. I have deleted photos from the cloud in case it is full but to no affect. I use my iPhone in conjunction with an iPad so this is driving me mad. Anyone else have this problem?

    No you're not the only one having this problem in fact many people are having it I spoke to Apple support today about it. First it is my opinion the aspect ratio is different on iPhone 4s compared to iPhone 5s, however I really feel it is a software issue. Just to make sure I am having the same problem you are I will describe my issue. I Have confirmed the following: if I Center an object on my iPhone 4s screen and open the picture while I am still in the app (open on the bottom left it)looks fine. But when I open camera roll and open that particular picture it's also fine
    Until I scroll left or right it pulls the image to the left side appearing to cut off the left side of the image. After talking to Apple support today and my knowledge with Apple products I strongly suspect this is a software issue. Apple asked me to do a restore as a new phone but I'm not going to go through all that nonsense when I believe it's a software issue and not a hardware issue. So again to recap to answer your question you're not alone, theses sort of things are expected when they rollout a new iOS just hang in there and let's see if they put a patch out for next update.

  • Since upgrading to iOS 8.3 the maps apps on my ipad do not show current location from my gps

    Since upgrading to iOS 8.3 the maps apps on my ipad do not show current location from my gps DUALXGPS150A
    The data is still being received by the ipad but not appearing on any of the maps.
    Everything was working fine before the upgrade.

    Hi davidisleta,
    If you are having issues with your iPad not showing location information, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

  • My iPad 2 keeps going into no service mode since upgrading to iOS 8.0 and the same with iOS 8.0.2

    My iPad 2 keeps going into no service mode since upgrading to iOS 8.0 and the same with iOS 8.0.2

    Hi jhatlanta, 
    I understand you are using a cellular iPad 2 and since upgrading to iOS 8 (and 8.0.2) your iPad drops the cellular connection and says, "No Service".
    So you have done step 5 in this list, but please test the other steps.
    If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad
    If you're in your carrier's coverage area
    Follow these steps, testing after each.
    Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    Restart your device.
    Remove the SIM card. If the SIM card is damaged, worn, or bent, or if it's too big or small for the SIM tray, contact your carrier for a new one. Then reinsert the SIM card.
    Check for a carrier-settings update: Connect to a Wi-Fi network, tap Settings > General > About, and install any available carrier-settings updates. If you can't connect to Wi-Fi, connect your device to a computer that has iTunes.
    Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
    Contact your carrier to check for any network or account issues.
    Restore your iPhone.
    Best Regards,
    Nubz

  • Cannot play video on ipad 2 since upgrade to ios 6

    Cannot play any video since upgrade to ios 6 on ipad 2!  Anyone else having this problem?

    Yes!  Immediately after upgrading our iPhones and iPads to iOS6, they lost the capability to play back CCTV camera streams both on network and 3/4G.  Our customers are experiening this issue as well.
    I held back from upgrading one of my iPads and all is normal with it.
    I am a Savant AV dealer and this is quite troubling especially since the issue has very little buzz.
    Has anyone heard from Apple regarding a fix?
    Thanks,

  • Has anyone encountered drastic shorter battery life both on iphone 5 and ipad since updating to iOS 6.1.2? How can this problem be solved?

    Dear all,
    I am new to this community even though I have been a Apple user for years, so please forgive me if this question is not in the right section.
    Has anyone encountered drastic shorter battery life both on iphone 5 and ipad since updating to iOS 6.1.2? I've always been happy with these two products until the update - now the battery life is considerably shorter which is extremely frustrating.
    How can this problem be solved? Is there any way to go back to the previous version?
    Thanks for your help.

    If you update using iTunes the phone is first wiped clean, then the new OS is installed, and finally the backup is restored. After this finishes if you sync your music should be restored. Music is not in the backup, because it is already on your computer and duplicating it would use up a lot of hard disk space.
    An OTA update just patches what has changed; it does not disturb content.

    How to stop the Sending USSD message on my iPad since upgrading. The eKit SIMM worked fine on my older iPad. Thanks

    Wiping my phone, restoring from backup, AND wiping all iTunes related files (from a search in Library and in Music) seems to have stopped this behavior.
    (I couldn't wipe the iTunes files on the machine with my media and apps, but I did so on the other machine--where I only sync contacts, calendars and bookmarks. My iTunes library is empty there anyway.)
    I don't know if this relates to an "app synching" issue that iTunes 9.0.1 fixed. Could be.
