My iPad2 (wifi only) is significantly slower since upgrading to iOS 8.0.2. Is Apple addressing this?  Any way to go back to iOS 7?

I run an iPad 2 on iOS 8.0.2 and have no significant speed issues (FWIW).
Try resetting the iPad by holding the home and power keys down until the Apple logo appears.
Any way to go back to iOS 7?
No. Apple does not support iOS downgrades.

    Try #5.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Ipad2 wifi-only with non-Apple mobile phones as hotspots

    Does the Ipad2 wifi-only work with Nokia E-7 as hotspot / Are there any reasons or restriction from Apple side that make such set-up with a non-Apple mobile device impossible? Thanks

    I use my Samsung Mesmerize phone as a Wi-fi hot spot and I have no problem what so ever with it, it works great at my moms so we can FaceTime with my sister!  I used to pay AT&T extra for 3G, but you can't FaceTime using 3G, you have to have a Wi-fi connection, and my phone works great with it!  Plus, I don't have to pay extra for it, I never use my full 5 GB data plan.

  • Slow since upgrading to yosemite

    Hello I'm a new mac user and need some info.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • My Mac has gone really slow since upgrading to Mavericks. Any suggestions as to how to speed things up again?

    My Mac has gone really slow since upgrading to Mavericks. Any suggestions as to how to speed things up again?

    First, back up all data immediately unless you already have a current backup. If you can't back up, stop here. Do not take any of the steps below.
    Step 1
    This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}' | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    Step 2
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
    Step 3
    When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
    Step 4
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • HT4972 I cannot connect to wifi since upgrading to ios 5.1

    Since upgrading to iOS 5.1.1 I cannot connect to wifi. I damaged my last phone so Apple replaced it with my current phone but since I've had it it won't connect. The 'choose a Network' message just has a whirly circle like it trying to connect. I've tried resetting my phone and resetting my router but it doesn't work. Can anyone help? I'm now getting a message saying I need to back up to iCloud but I can't do this without connecting to wifi.

    Thanks but this has not helped. I've booked an appointment at the Apple store on Snday. Helpfully they will be able to fix it without charging me alive only had this phone since May this year.

  • IPad one is slow since upgrading to the "Cloud" .

    iPad one is slow since upgrading to the "Cloud" photos don't load on blog pages and I get blue questionmark.  How can I force the photos to load?
    I also notice a slight delay when my home screen or apps start.  Is it something I can change. I am using the most recient update for the iPad.

    If there's an iPad 4, which itself would be interesting since there is not an iPad 3, but  its not on the apple on line store anyway, just the iPad mini. But the chances of getting an 'new' iPad are really good if you want to pay for it. The hardware warranty only covers you for a replacement though.

    Hi,
    I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
    The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
    Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
    Anyway, thank you,

  • Why does my iPhoto open and run slow since upgrading to OSX 10.8.5

  • Is there a fix for Mail running very slow since upgrade to 10.8

    Mail is running extremely slow since upgrade.  Open New Message window (or auto link to new email from another applicatin), click on outgoing email address field and begin to type.  Takes 15-30 secods per letter in the address to populate the field.  Click SEND and it takes up to 2 minutes to send... another 3 minutes to show up in SENT mailbox.  Sometimes completely chokes and have to Force Quit.  Have already run Disk Utility (Permissions and Directory Corruption Diagnostics and Repair), have Rebuilt the Mailboxes, have reinstalled OS 10.8 from Recovery partition.  IT IS STILL CHOKING, HANGING, AND NOT FUNCTIONING NORMALLY.  Any Ideas ??? Please help!

    I have my 'Check for New Messages' set to 'Manually'.  This is a problem with setting up a New Message to send out.  I did go into settings under Composing Tab and unchecked "Automatically Complete Addresses".  This has resolved the issue of the spinning beachball when attempting to enter an email address into the "To:" field.  So, it is running at normal speed now, but I suspect there s a bug related to that setting... something that is causing a very slow background search through existing address book directory for recognizable email addresses to 'auto fill' in that field.  I have already trashed preferences for both Mail and Address Book and that did not resolve the issue, so it must be something else.  I can live without Auto Complete.  Thanks for the input!

  • Since upgrading to IOS 8.0.2 I can't connect to wifi

    Since upgrading to IOS 8.0.2 last week I'm unable to connect to anyones wifi.
    I've cleared the network settings, updated the carrier settings and restored it as a new phone and nothing works.........
    PLEASE HELP ME

    I have been to the Apple store twice about this problem I have with my iPad.  Wifi does connect to non-password or authentication wifi.  In my humble opinion, I believe the problem is no hardware or wifi, it may be related to keyboard languages or a keyboard recognition bug in the update.  My iPad recognizes the correct number of characters to allow me to click the join button, but that is where I get my password incorrect, or can't connect message.  I have 1 language and emoji which now has no ability to remove.  Maybe it is defaulting to emoji?

    Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8 - Apple Support
    The following data will migrate from iPhoto to Photos.
    Any photos in your iPhoto library that aren't already in Photos are added.
    Image adjustments you made in iPhoto are migrated to Photos.
    If you applied image adjustments to photos synced to your iOS device from iTunes, a duplicate of each photo will be created in Photos with adjustments applied.
    Photos hidden in iPhoto do not appear in the Years, Moments, or Collections views in Photos, but are placed in an album titled Hidden.
    Photo Books, Web Journals, and Slideshows are converted into regular albums in Photos. Text and layouts are not preserved.
    Only projects created on the device performing the migration will be converted. Projects you synced from other devices to iPhoto via iCloud must be converted from the devices on which they were created.
    Photos marked as Favorites in iPhoto are marked as Favorites in Photos.
    Tags and captions from iPhoto are not displayed in Photos, but you can use them as search terms and they will show up respectively as Keywords and Titles in Photos search results.
    Flags from iPhoto are converted to the keyword Flagged.
