My iPad 2 is switching off every 15 sec, what happens?, my iPad 2 is switching off every 15 sec, what happens?

my ipad 2 is constantly schitching off every 15 sec, and I can not do a reset via itunes in this time, any proposal?

Hi, do you mean that shortly after iOS powers up, the swirling progress circle comes up?
If that's the case, its instability in the OS. I'm more inclined towards completing a firmware flushing through iTunes.
Restore your iPad in this case through DFU (device firmware upgrade) mode
DFU is pretty much a power downed state of conducting an update.
Since your iPad is literally hiccing up *hic* every second *hic*, I'm thinking a powered up way of conducting a reset or firmware update isn't safe.
This is DFU
Attach the device to the pc
Turn the phone off
Hold power and home together for *exactly* 10 seconds
Release power but keep holding home until the pc beeps as a USB device is recognized.
At no point will the display come on. Now your restore should work.
Hold ctrl key + restore button on iTunes (for windows, I'm not sure of mac equivalent)
In the directory, point iTunes towards the ipsw download
Apple will now authenticate the firmware
Let the device do its job

My ipad atomatically gets switched off after every 5 mins

From first day only my ipad atomatically gets switched off after every 5 mins and then atomatically gets on after 2-3 mins. is it a hardware problem or some problem in settings? if anybody knows the solution then please let me know....

Is this a brand new iPad2. Did you notice this occurring before you started adding apps? Is this is occurring if you do not have any apps you have started running either active or in the background?
If you have already tried powering off the device, you can try to do a hard reset (Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider, let go of the buttons.) and see how it runs without starting any apps.
I do not have instructions for doing a restore but that is the only other step that I think of that you can take to resolve a software based problem.
If you are still seeing the behavior after trying most or all of the above, I would suggest taking it in or returning it for service.

TS1398 My new iPad keeps forgetting my Internet password every time it is switched off or goes on flight mode

My new iPad keeps forgetting my Internet password every time it is switched off or goes on flight mode. Have tried resetting the network setting as it suggest on the support page. The Internet works fine with my windows PC and my son's iPad 2. Any advice?

Have you tried powering off and then back on your router?
Does it only happen with your router? If so that would tend to indicate a router problem.

ICloud drive keeps switching itself off on my iPad 2

I have a MBP and an iMac = both on Yosemite and both working with iCloud drive OK.
But I cannot get this to work on iPad 2 with IOS 8 - with either Pages or Keynote. It keeps telling me to set up iCloud - which I do as per instructions - but it sends me round in the same circles!
This is driving me crazy and has wasted hours! I have signed in and out of iCloud several times and enabled iCloud Drive. Then also down to Pages app and checked on for 'use iCloud' Somehow - this switches itself off again after a few seconds! How does this happen?
Why does it not stay on????????
While it is 'on' - Every time I try to use the Pages app I cannot see my iCloud drive documents - and when I try and save it then tells me to set up iCloud!
This is useless to me if it will not work as advertised!

I suggest that you do a update or reinstall of the phone software via the Update Service program. www.sonyericsson.com/updateservice
Hopefully will that solve your problem.
If you get the option to update I suggest that you select to update and also factory reset the phone.
If you only get the option to reinstall you already have the latest version, this will automatically result in a master reset too.

Hi egualmente73,
If you haven't already done so, does restarting or resetting the iPad help the issue?

I have an iPad 2 and all of a sudden I have no sound in game apps. I have usual volume in videos and YouTube, I do get volume for games if I plug in headphones. I have switched to screen lock off and on again and I have also done a reset twice.....help :)

I have an ipad2 and all of a sudden I have stopped getting sound in my game apps. I get normal sound on YouTube and I player and downloaded DVDs. If I plug headphones in then I can get sounds for the games. I have switched the lock screen button off and on again and done a reset twice, can anyone help me with this?

Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

Why does iTunes match delete everything off my iPad memory every time I connect to pc?

iTunes recently deleted all my music off my iPad so it was only available to stream, which is no use to me. I've just connected to my pc again and gone, just like that every song has that horrible little cloud next to it. I spent a full day last weekend downloading everything to the iPad memory, looks like I'll be doing it again tomorrow.

Gavin,
From what I understand the first time you connect your iPad it should wipe out all cloud based music but after that as you stream music ( which is not real streaming but download and play) it should then keep the music in case you want to replay it and only delete it to make room for any more music you download subsequently.
If that isn't happening then it's probably a bug!
Regards,
Shawn

Hi, I'm having a problem with my first gen. iPad switching back to the apps page by itself. This started after upgrading to ios5. It will do this from safari or kindle. I have turned it off manually as suggested by a tech rep. without any improvement.

Hi,
My 1stgen iPad keeps. Switching back to the apps. Pages by itself after installing ios5. I have shut it down manually as suggestedby a tech rep but the problem still exists.
Thanks, Jim

1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
which will correct the problem...

2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
accurate.
3) This?
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
point
4) Restore the iPod
5) Try these...
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
Up
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
posted for each one.

I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

IPad 2 safari won't open and iPad won't switch off IOS 6.0.1

Hallo everyone,
Pleease can anyone help as my iPad 2 is no longer recognised in iTunes.
I cannot open Safari - it immediately returns to the home screen.
It will not switch off so that I can reboot it.
Aaaargh !
Thanks

Quit ALL apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Reboot the iPad.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Do this for Safari as well. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

How can I delete e-mails from one IPad without removing them from other IPads on same icloud? I'ved tried switching off mail sync on all devices but this only works when deleting on IPhone

We have several portable devices and a mini mac on our system and have found that if we delete an email on one device it is removed from others.
We don't want this, but at the same time we need to keep our devices clear of clutter.
It was suggested that switch off the sync mail switch in settings - Icloud, but this only works on IPads & Ipods
anybody got any better ideas ??
