My iPad mini keeps freezing when using Apple wireless keyboard

I recently bought an iPad with retine display, and an apple wireless keyboard. I don't know if the problem is the iPad, the keyboard, or the app I am using.
I will be typing away fine with my keyboard, however if I stop for too long, the iPad suddenly loses connection with the keyboard and completely freezes. The home button does nothing, the virtual keyboard does nothing, and holding down the power down does nothing. There is no response from the iPad at all. After a few minutes the iPad either returns to the home screen or powers off. I can use it as normal from there. The app I am using is Day One journal, and is a reputable app. I have no idea what the problem is, and I hope it isn't affecting my iPad in the long run. My keyboard is only 2 weeks old, so the batteries are hadly low. I am mainly concerned about the iPad freezing.
Any help?? Thanks.

Hello there Lsu70,
If your app is rendering the iPad unresponsive, I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in this article to help get that resolved, named:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
Start with these steps, but there are additional things to do if these do not resolve the issue:
Follow the steps below and test the app after each step.Restart the app
Close the app and open it again.Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.Update your device software and your apps
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
Update your apps:
Open the App Store and tap Updates.
If updates are available, tap Update All.
If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

  • Kernel panic when using Apple Wireless Keyboard (bluetooth)

    I kept getting kernel panics (gray multi-language screen) at seemingly random intervals on my MacBook Pro with 10.5. After a while I realized that part of the time it seemed to be when I would type something that woke up my Apple Wireless Keyboard (the new thin one) and cause it to reconnect to the laptop, then the other times seemed to be when I would go out of range of the keyboard where it would normally bring up the "Connection Lost" notification.
    I have disabled bluetooth for now and no longer use the keyboard (it was my only bluetooth device) and the kernel panics have stopped.
    Has anyone else noticed this? And perhaps more importantly, does anyone know of a workaround until this bug is fixed?

    Same problem here today. I've got a Bluetooth Mighty Mouse at home. I put the computer to sleep at home and when I tried to wake it up at work I had a kernel panic..
    I'm just doing some research now of what a kernel panic is at all.

  • Imac keeps freezing when using safari

    my imac keeps freezing when using safari or finder
    The beachball appears and I have to wait.
    My safari cache is emptied, have run Disk Utility to check permissions.
    Rebooted various times.
    Sorted out ``the community toolbar not supported" issue and still it's happening.
    Anyone any tips on what to do next??
    It's a 24 inch iMac - early 2009 version
    Processor is 3.06 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Software is OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)

    I have only been able to read your reply by going online on my phone -
    I started up my iMac in safe mode on Saturday morning and reran Disk Utility , no problems.
    I shut it down and re started it as normal.  Whilst I was able to use my Mail and MS entourage and Safari brower,
    the computer was very slow and the beachball appeared briefly each time I used a program.
    On Monday , it didn't recognise one of the printers and was continually hanging.
    All software is up to date and I have run Disk Utility - repair permissions again.
    I shut the computer down yesterday and rebooted in Safe mode this afternoon so that I could try to look in
    Console.

  • The numeral part of my keyboard causes my mac mini to freeze when using the 0 - 9 keys

    The numeral part of my keyboard causes my mac mini to freeze when using the 0 - 9 keys.. I have to restart to continue.
    Does it have to do with the disk utility?
    I already did the disc repair job

    Open System Preferences - Universal Access and check whether 'Mouse Keys' are activated.
    If so, then deactivate them. They could be the cause of your problem.

  • My iPad 2 keeps crashing when using iPhoto.

    My iPad 2 keeps crashing when using iPhoto. Have cleared my 'open' apps, reset and restored the iPad, reinstalled iPhoto. But same result when editing pictures imported from SD card. Seems like iPhoto is built for the quad core GPU of the new iPad? Pretty a waste of my $5 until I get it to stop crashing. I'm on OS5.1. Thanks!

    It works on the ipad 2.  I heard of an issue where if you have too many photos in your library may cause app
    to crash.  Try to uncheck but a few of your albums in your library in itunes.  Sync.  See what happens.

    Everywhere that I've checked it is not possible to do this. I would like to even do this using the vkb. I hate having to stretch my thumb all the way up just to send a message. It's messaging, not a report or email. Seems backwards. Hopefully some day Apple can add this option.

  • I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help please...

    I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help me please...

    You can find the Apple Bluetooth card on eBay for as little ten dollars (says its for the 2008 model Mac Pro, not sure about the 2007).
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bluetooth-Board-iMac-and-Mac-Pro-922-8233-922-8233-/1208 49278570
    Here is a link to a full explanation of the card and how to install it. Part numbers may differ a bit as that is an old article and newer models have come out.
    http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/Mac_Pro/Bluetooth_MacPro_install/Bluetooth_Ma cPro_install.html
    Just make sure that the part will work in your model Mac Pro. To that end, you may be better off avoiding eBay and going to a parts reseller. There are even third party cards that use the internal Apple bluetooth slot.
    http://fastmac.com/bluetooth.php
    In theory, using a USB or PCI card will work at login so long as it is recognized by Apples drivers. You say you need to launch an application to use your current USB Bluetooth dongle? If it is not controlled by the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar then it must be using a third party driver of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't know off hand which USB and PCI cards are supported.

  • My front facing camera on my IPad mini keeps freezing up, just goes blank, why can I do?

    My front facing camera won't work on my iPad mini, just freezes up or goes black, any tips on what to do?

    Hi stella32,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  Although written for iPhone, this article has some camera troubleshooting tips that would also apply to iPad and may help:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    Cheers,
    - Ari

  • Safari keeps freezing when using yahoo mail.

    Safari keeps freezing while using Yahoo mail. Have to close out or reset safari to regain access. Anyone else ever have this problem?

    Why not use Mac Mail instead of Yahoo's web based mail and having to access it via Safari and deal with incompatibility issues?
    Open Mac Mail.
    From the menu bar top of your screen click Mail / Preferences then select the Accounts tab then the Account Information tab.
    Click +  (plus) under  the Accounts  panel on the left.
    Type in your name, Yahoo email address and Yahoo password then click Create.
    It's that easy.
    To view incoming mail or start a new mail message just click the Mail icon in your Dock. If the Mail icon isn't in the Dock, go to your Applications folder, launch Mail. Then click and hold the Mail icon in the Dock, click Option / Keep In Dock.
