My iPad first gen unexpectedly shuts down unexpectedly. Any others having this problem?

While using my iPad it shuts down. Any fixes for this?

Mine does the same thing...I think it is because it isn't support anymore.  They are no longer doing software upgrades and many of the apps are no longer supported as well. 
I guess we'll have to buy a new ipad if we want support or the new op sys...

    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • Both iPhone 4s and Ipad not updating to 7.0  It keeps saying there is an error.  Any others having same problem?

    I have tried a hard reset on both of them but it will not let me download them.  I have them plugged in and sometimes it starts to download but quits after about 30 seconds

    Hence the problem with trying to download something the second it becomes available. You and millions of others are all trying to download it at exactly the same time. Just wait.

  • I just got my shipment and My Ipad mini is just shut down without reasons during upgrading. I'm doing restore it. Does it matter for the future use?

    ACtually I really really don't want to use it anymore. I'm so disappointed.

    If they are getting 2 days without charging, it's unlikely they use their device very much.
    A full day is pretty good....and if I'm careful, I can easily get a full day of usage.
    For me, normal is charging the iPhone mid afternoon at work, but I use it a lot.
    My typical usage is 35 mins of listening to podcasts, checking email, checking my RSS feed, and checking a few apps while I ride my bike when I first get up.  Then listening to several podcasts at work.
    I typically stream music while working out during my lunch hour and use the Men's Health Fitness app to track my progress.
    By about 2pm I'm ready to charge the device as it's getting low (somewhere between 20% and 50%).
    I leave bluetooth, Wi-FI, and location services turned on all the time.
    Personally, I just do not see the point in going into settings to turn on the feature when I need it... just too much hassle.  All of my listening to podcasts and music is via Bluetooth.
    I know I'm not the heaviest user, but I just do not see how anyone can realistically make it two days on a single charge, it makes me think they simply do not use the features of the device and would be just as well served with a basic or feature phone.

  • Hello. I dropped my ipad first gen from my chair, about 2 feet above the floor. The screen went black and I can't turn it on again. I have tried holding both buttons down at the same time, but nothing happens. Any help?

    Hello. I dropped my ipad, first gen, from my chair to the floor. The screen went black and I can't start it again. I have tried to hold both buttons down at the same time, but nothing happens. Any help?

    You will probably have to contact Apple for repair but before you do try this:
    Turn your iPad upside down on your lap and give it a hard smack on the back.

  • I have the original IPad and it keeps shutting down in all apps and programs.

    I have the original IPad and it keeps shutting down in all apps and programs.  Does anyone have a solution for this problem.

    First and periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The iPad 1only has 256 MB of memory.
    Next
    - 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.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • IPad first gen Calendar will not show month view for March. When you go feb to march the pad goes back to the home screen. Apr etc are all there. March seems to have some problem always going to the home screen. How can I fix this

    I am haveing trouble with the calandar view on an iPad first gen. the month of March will not display , no matter how it is asked for the device drops out of calandar and defaults to the home screen. all other months display. Any fix suggestions welcome.

    Try removing any all-day events from the calendar for the 1st April 2013 e.g. if you are syncing the calendar from somewhere else (e.g. Outlook on a PC or iCal/Calendar on a Mac) then change it to a timed event instead of all-day (if you don't sync your calendar from anywhere then try going into list view, go to 1st April and change any 'all day' events to times e.g. change Easter Monday to start at something like 4am) - it seems that there is a problem with all day events on that date which is when the clocks change due to daylight saving on the day before.

  • IPad first gen 3g, battery died, wont start

    I have been happily using my iPad first gen since i got it when the iPad 3g launched. Every night i would put it on the charger, but recently i went back vacation and didnt charge it for a week. When i got home my iPad was dead, so i placed it on the charger. It shows the charger connecting, the symbol on the face turns to the lightning bolt with a flashing red empty battery. After sitting like this for four hours, it still refuses to boot up. This is the exact same charger i have used for years, and i have tried pressing the home and lock button to force a restart (after about 6 seconds it just turns off). No idea whats wrong, hoping he isnt dead because i cannot afford a new one =(

    Check that your cable is in good working order and that you are using the appropriate charger. The iPad required a 10W charger, not the 5W that comes with an iPhone. Most other third-party chargers not SPECIFICALLY stated to be for iPad will charge, but very slowly.
    Also, you should;t let the battery drain completely before charging it. You can do that maybe once per month, but repeatedly doing this is not good for Li-ion batteries. Follow Apple's recommendations for battery care and you should be ok. https://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html

  • IPad first gen not turning on!

    Hello, please help me!! My iPad first gen isn't turning on!! It's just a black screen. Tried resetting it and tried dfu mode but nothing!! When I plug it in to charge then the screen keeps flashing on and off, no apple logo just a black screen lighting up and switching off immediately and looping again. When I plug it out of charge then its completely unresponsive!! Not even lighting up!! Tried whacking it near the headphone jack but still not working... Is there a problem with the battery? Or the screen. I've never dropped it ever.  Itunes doesn't recognise it at all. Do I have to replace the battery or something? I really need help so please help me!! I'm going crazy!!
    thank you soo much

    I went to to apple to fix it and they said it's the batteries problem so they did something and now instead of a black screen it has an apple logo!! It's progress!! But they said the battery is gone bad so I have to change it but apple is not allowed to do that so I'm guessing I have to do it myself... Oh well, thank you for your help!!

  • ICloud Synchronization not working between iPad first gen 5.1.1 & iPhone 4S 6.0.1?

    iCloud Synchronization not working between iPad first gen 5.1.1 & iPhone 4S 6.0.1?

    I can see the acknowledgement that this issue will be fixed in the 'next' software update. Considering the original post was for an iPad 2 running 5.0.1, I am not sure if this issue on iOS 5.1 which runs on my new iPad (4G) is considered fixed. As I reported in my previous post it is impossible to update individual tracks. I also tried adding entire collection to a single playlist, shuffling the playlist. While shuffle is in progress, turning to the 'list' view that allows tracks to be rated does who the currently shuffled playlist and the currently playing track and assigns the rating to the track correctly. However, as soon as the second track plays, switching to list view (which displays the ratings) lists only the tracks from the currently playing track's album. Which is insane IMHO.
    So, was this not fixed with 5.1 update? Or the iOS 5.1 will get it's own piece of update on this?

  • Why does my iPad email app keep shutting down?

    I just purchased my iPad 2 3G last week, so I am a new iPad/Apple user.  I really like the product and now wonder why I have stayed loyal to the Windows PC for so long.  I'm still looking for some of those useful PC keys and keystroke shortcuts that I am so accustomed to, but I am adapting.
    My iPad mail app keeps shutting down on me, whether I am typing a message or just reviewing/managing my mail.  I use a bluetooth keyboard, so it is not a matter of me bumping the touch screen that is causing the app to close.
    I have lost a lot of important business emails while composing them and eventually stopped using my iPad to compose email.
    Is there a setting controlling this or is it a program glitch?
    Thanks.

    Pam-
    It could be that the battery charge indicator is showing 100 percent when you actually have almost no charge left.  In case that is the problem, leave your iPad connected to its wall charger overnight, and see if that helps.
    One other thing to try, is to reset (reboot) your iPad.  Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.  Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes solves mysterious problems.

  • IPad 2 won't shut down

    Hello,
    Since a little time my iPad won't shut down using the red slider. The circle is rolling and rolling. A reset with both buttons does the job but it's not ideal (loading time is longer).
    Thanks

    Try a reset - hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears and let go of the buttons - ignore the red slider. Let it fully start up. then try to shut down again.

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
