My ipad is showing low memory

My ipad is crashing during use. I updated to 5.0.1 and also deleted some apps that I wasn't using and I'm still having this problem.

Lest we forget: you could also just delete stuff.
(Videos are the worst memory hogs, followed by photos and music. Apps tend to use comparatively little space.)

Have you ever created a buck up of your phone. If you have one you have to restore it. Otherwise you have to install your phone software .

Crash reporter on iMac shows Low Memory crashes.

I was looking for a crash log for something else today when I discovered a bunch of low memory crash logs in the User/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice folder.
I have a 32G iPad, bought it this summer. IOS 4.2.1. And I have used only about 1/4 of the space of it according to the bar when I sync it to my iMac. I have just a handful of apps, one movie, about two dozen songs, and 22 Pages documents.
Anyone have any ideas?

Hi Paul,
Low memory crash logs will refer to the system running out of RAM not storage space. The iPad has 256mb of RAM and with multitasking in 4.2 will be trying to squeeze more active apps into that space.
I don't think it's worth worrying about unless it's the applications you are using in the foreground that are crashing.
(It may just be background applications that are being terminated by the system to make more room for the apps you are launching. Apps are are given a certain amount of time to close and if they fail to close in time they are terminated so this maybe where the crash reports are coming from.)

Not Really a Electronics Wizz or up to date on My iPod Electronics and Repair ... Just trying to get his iPod back working to 100% again ... Any Help or Direction would be Greatly Appreciated ,,, Thank You,,, Brian : )

If the memory is low, double click the home button to bring up the multitask bar, tap on one of the apps shown until they start to shake, then hit the little red minus to close them. After all apps are closed that way, press the home button again and see if it works now.
Maybe you'll reset the device as well by pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing this, but it can clear some glitches as well.

Low memory iPad 1

iPad 1 shows low memory and iTunes App crushes, also after reset.

Hey there saint38,
I you are still getting this error message when opening links in the Safari app, I would next quit all the running apps on your device:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
If the issue persists, backup your device to iTunes and then restore it as a new device and verify that it works.
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If it does, then restore your backup to either verify it still works and the software just needed reinstalled, or isolate the issue to the backup file itself.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Low Memory.

After setting for Mail for Exchange, my Nokia E7 phone shows low memory.
I checked C Memory & there are only important files & that too of small sizes. All major Applications are installed in Mass Memory only.
Is “Low Memory” issue due to Mail for Exchange? If so, is it possible to transfer / change the data of Mail Exchange to Mass Memory instead of Phone Memory? How?
Appreciate all the help.

I had this problem in my Nokia E72, hope its relevant.
go to office>file manager>phone memory>logs>eng>ods
are there multiple files. click on options select all and delete. if the no of files is quite large it will take a very long time to delete. or you can select 30-40 files and delete and then check the space. if the free space increases then you need to delete all.
also try updating your firmware.

Having issues with low memory that is causing some of my apps to crash, need help please !!!

Having issues with low memory that is causing some of my apps to crash, need help please !!!

Is the device actually showing low memory errors?
What is really occurring?
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried?

Low memory warning on my iPad (3rd gen)

I'm receiving a low memory warning on my iPad (3rd generation), but I can't find the RAM info anywhere under the Settings. I always close my apps using the Home button, so nothing should be open except the app I'm using. How can I see the RAM available, and what can I do about the low memory warning?

You may have many apps open. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Low memory on iPad 2

The diagnostics of my iPad 2 says that my iPad has low memory.however I have 21.5 GB available. Please help. Thanks

I had this same issue with the new ipad, I kept getting logs generated that stated low memory. I am not aware of any problems or issues this created, it was just sort of an informational warning not that there was anything wrong. To “fix” it I just closed all the apps still in memory by double clicking the home button, holding your finger on one of the apps in the bottom window until they shake then hit the x to close them out of memory.

Several times over the last few days while on safari my iPad spontaneously shuts off screen goes dark then goes to home screen what's going on and how do I fix it when I look at settings diagnostics it says that there is low memory ?

Safari crashes several times while on pinterest, screen goes black then goes to home screen when I start safari again it keeps doing the same thing. I checked the diagnostics page and there are several references stating low memory yet when I check the memory on the iPad there is plenty of memory help please

The memory that is low is the processor memory, not the overall storage space. Next time, before you go to that site, double tap the home button to see the task bar. You will see the list of apps siting in the recently used list. Most of them are not doing anything, but some of them are using up memory. Touch and hold any one of them until they jiggle, then close them all off by touching the minus sign.
Do that every so often to help the pad use it's memory wisely.
Some apps, and browser pages use a lot of memory, and do not give it back easily, causing what sis happening to you.
You can also get a similar result by rebooting. Press and hold the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.

IPad Air crashes with low memory error in Google Translate Web Site

My new iPad Air crashes with low memory error every time I try to use my Phrasebook in Google Translate Web site. This is rather disapointing considering that my old Nexus 10, that iPad Air is supposed to replace, works flawlessly in Google Translate Web site. Perhaps this has to do with the rather limited RAM (1GB) that iPad Air is equippoed with.
I would appreciate any recommendation, Thanks in advance.

TS1702 iPad 1 applications crash for low memory. All apps are doing this. Any solution?

Ever since the last update of IOS from Apple, all applications on iPad 1 are crashing for low memory. I have done everything that Apple has indicated (make sure nothing in running in background, turn off iCloud, reset and reloaded iPad like new) and nothing seems to help. Even went into the Apple store and the Genius said that there was nothing short of resetting the unit to "New". That did not help.
I know there are tons of complaints out there but has anyone found a way around this?

So what do you want us to do about your complaint assuming it is true?

Why does my ipad close apps because of low memory?

Low memory trouble shooting..

You are answering your own question actually. If you want to, you can close apps in the recents tray - and while the overwhelming majority of those apps are not actually running, there could be an app that is doing something that could be causing a problem. Close all of your apps and restart.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you 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 to close the apps. 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.
You should not have to do this on a regular basis, but try it and see if it helps at all. Then keep an eye on what apps are running when you get the low memory warning and sse if there is maybe a setting or a file associated with that app that you can change - or delete and then see if that helps even more.

IPhone 4S shows low in memory.

My iPhone 4S shows low in memory when I connect my iPhone 4s (iOS 8.0.2) to my Mac/Win machine. iTunes comes up as usual; the summary line at the bottom shows 800 photos whereas i have 300 appx in the phone gallery. While 'Other' section eats up to 20% of the phone memory.
Please help me in understanding the issue and how to fix it.

Hey Prof.Crank,
I found the following troubleshooting steps to take when your iPhone is unresponsive:
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
via: iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

IPad mini low memory report - what can I do to stop apps crashing

The iPad worked well, but friend started playing Nemos reef,, no problem to level 20 now the Disney app is crashing all the time and occasionally Facebook and Safari crash. There is low memory reports but I do not know how to improve that. I did delete some apps but didn't help. Disney no help because I am in UK although they were happy to take money for in-app purchases!

Do two things:
1. In Settings > iTunes & App Stores, turn off automatic downloads for Apps.
2. Assuming you sync using iTunes, turn off the automatic app syncing on the App tab when you have the iPads connected that should not receive the downloads.
