my ipad keeps closing my programs

You may have too much going on in the background.
Double tap the home button to bring up your recent apps. Hold down on one of the app icons until they all wiggle. Then tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the apps and to close them. Close all of your apps. Tap the home button to stop the wiggling then tap the screen. Now reboot - hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and then let go of the button.
You can also try a reset by holding down on the sleep button and home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.

  • TS3274 My iPad keeps closing out of apps ...

    My iPad keeps closing out of apps, wouldnt let me delete email..is my memory too full.

    Did you try either of these?
    Quit all apps completely and restart 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. 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.
    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.
    What do you mean it wouldn't let you delete your mail? Is the mail app crashing? You can swipe across the email in the preview window in order to delete it. You do not have to open the email in order to delete it.

  • My Macbook Pro keeps closing my programs...

    My Macbook Pro keeps closing my programs while I am working on them and then logs me out and I have to put my password. I lose everything I was doing, every time. Any suggestions?
    I'm very concerened because I just got this last year, its not even a year old and its starting to mess up.

    Boot into your Recovery partition (hold down the Command and R keys whilst booting) and opeb Disk Utility. First repair Permissions. Then use Disk Utility to first verify and, if needed, repair your boot volume. If it can be repaired, you'll get green text saying that everything seems to be OK: if it fails, you'll get a red text message that the volume can't be repaired.
    Call back with your results.

  • HT4623 My iPad keep opening numerous programs by itself, how do we fix that problem?

    My iPad keep opening numerous programs by itself, how do I fix this problem?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • IPad keeps closing apps

    I have an iPad mini and recently it's been acting up on me.
    It keeps closing the apps I'm trying to open, as if they're crashing. I've tried to delete the apps, reinstall them, restart the iPad, "shock-start" it and resetting it and nothing works.
    Especially the Facebook app keeps closing and the few times I actually get in, the picture keeps freezing and the whole thing just locks for a few seconds.
    I don't know what else to do. I'm not sure if it's a problem with my apps (it's not every app that closes, but most of them) or if it's something with the iPad.
    If anyone has any suggestion, I would be forever grateful!

    Hi there NinusenS,
    At this point, I would recommend backing up all of your data, restore the device with iTunes, and set it up as a new device. After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
    If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
    If the issue is now resolved, sync one type of content at a time back to the device. For example, if you had an issue playing music, add songs from iTunes and confirm they will play. If your contacts weren't loading successfully, add the contacts back. After each sync, test to see if the issue has returned.
    Take a look at the article below for more information on how to back up and restore your data.

  • Why does my 1st gen. Ipad keep closing apps?

    Why is my ipad 1 closing applications all the time? Is there a solution?

    Closing apps typically indicates that the app is crashing.
    You might try restoring your iPad by plugging it in to iTunes (latest version: 11.0.4).  Let it sync, then choose "Restore ..." from the iPad's summary page in iTunes.
    You may wish to be selective in which apps you restore to the iPad, as one or more may be corrupt.

  • Why does my iPad keep closing safari?

    For the past several months, my iPad continuously closes out of Safari and/or apps that I am using.   It happens often enough to be very annoying, especially when I am in the middle of something.
    I've tried resetting/rebooting but nothing helps.  Any suggestions?

    You are using the original iPad and running iOS 5.1.1. IMO - iOS 5.1.1 really stretched the limits of the original iPad's processor. You are resetting and rebooting so there isn't much else to try other than to keep apps in the recents tray to a minimum, and clear Safari on occasion.
    Start by quitting all apps, clear Safari and then reboot the iPad. See if that helps at all.
    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. er 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.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. 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.

  • IPad keeps closing or kicking me out

    When using safari or even on app store browsing apps. The iPad suddenly closes. It's been happening for 2 weeks. Could it be a virus

    It's definitely not a virus. There isn't any malware of any kind for iPads. (Unless you have jailbroken it, but we're not allowed to discuss such things here.)
    I would first recommend resetting your iPad. Press and hold both the home button and the sleep/wake button for about 10 seconds, until the screen turns off. Ignore the slider that will appear. Release the buttons, then press and hold the sleep/wake button until the Apple logo appears. This is the equivalent of a reboot, and should not affect your data or apps.
    If that doesn't help, connect it to iTunes on your computer and restore it using the latest backup.

  • My iPad keeps shutting down or Apps keep closing

    My iPad keeps shutting down or apps keep closing.

    Just wondering if you all remember when it started for you. I updated my iPad classic to v5 and i remember that it also did an auto update though iCloud a few days after that. I think mine started shutting down apps and safari after the iCloud update not with the first update to 5 over my computer. Is this happening to people with iPhones and it so which iPhone do you have?  I don't use an iPhone but my husband and son have the 3GS and I have not updated them yet or my sons iPad  I'm waiting to see if they fix this. I can't believe I got this typed and posted before safari shuts down and I have to start over. One more thing my iPad is not jailbreak.

  • Safari keeps closing on iPad Air

    I have an IPad Air and Safari keeps closing with a variety of sites like Instagram tumblr publico....
    For instance try espn.com.br zoom in and out and it automatically closes up.
    Does anyone know why? Or if there is a solution?

    Closing indicates the Safari app is crashing for some reason.
    Try resetting the iPad.  Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
    If that does not fix it, check Settings > General > Usage and make sure you have a reasonable amount of free space left on your iPad.
    You might try a restore if none of the above work.

    My original ipad which my wife now uses keeps closing apps and returning to the home screen. Internet connection stays

    Have you tried to give the device a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps.
