Screen unresponsive following IOS8 update

not so much a question as a statement but Apple need to sort out unresponsive screens following ios8 update. I have an iPad Air and a mini ipad and both iPads are suffering. I have tried switching off, hard resets and nothing works. Apple must realise there is a problem so I hope they find a solution soon. Searching on Google for example results on a blank page when the search results should be displayed....only after touch the screen again do the results ac

Hi,  I think we should focus on the apple bugs and not try to insult each other...... No software is without its bugs...
I have IOS 8.0.2 on my iphone 5 and ipad 3 and managed to get around the syncing issues..... so it appears that this bug may be hard to replicate, and likely to be dependent on on a number of variable factors.....
JennBaggs, have you tried the following
turn off iCloud Calendar Sync
turn off Outlook Calendar sync
Close all Apps
Power Off iPAD (holding the power down button)
Power on ipad
Perform system reset (Hold down home key and power button until the screen blacks out and displays the apple logo.
Turn on only outlook calendar sync
go to your calendar app and ensure your outlook calendar is selected  for view (you can check this by selecting the plus button at the bottom center of the calendar app.
I'm hoping this sequence of steps remedies your problem....

  • Calendar not syncing following IOS8 update

    I really hope someone can help me - I have spent about 3 hours trying to sort this out.
    Updated my iPhone 5 to IOS8; and my calendar not longer seemed to be syncing (Outlook 2010 on Widnows 7).  Did some research, and it looks like I am now forced to use iCloud - would prefer not to, but this doesn't seem to be an option.
    Managed to get my contacts to sync eventually, but my calendar still isn't syncing.  When I look at my calendar in Outlook, I now have several calendars, including the "Calendar from iCloud" which has all my appointments in - in Outlook.  On my phone, however, there are just one or two appointments, and at bizarre times (such as my personal training session at 4am - I'm not that dedicated!!  I have logged into iCloud Calendar through a web browser, and the calendar is the same as is showing on my phone.
    I have signed out and back into iCloud on both my PC and my phone (when I signed out on my PC, it lost ALL of my calendar information from Outlook but was restored when I signed back in.  I have signed out on my iPhone, reset it, signed back in...nothing.  The problem seems to be the sync between iCloud and Outlook.
    I have checked the iCloud Outlook Add-In is active (actually it wasn't, but I managed to activate it, and it is now active).

  • Has anyone had any issues getting iPad to connect to Apple tv following ios8 update?

    HI i was wondering if anyone has experienced any issues connecting their iPad to watch films through Apple tv following the iOS 8 update. Prior to downloading the update everything worked fine now my iPad isnt picking up the Apple TV device at all despiteairplay being shown as on and them both being connected to the same wifi network.

    I'm saying to wait a bit longer. If it were mine, I would want it to work in every aspect and fashion. I will ocassionaly have connection issues on mine, but only occasionally. I can usually resolve them on the spot.
    It sounds odd to me that it would start working with your home network all of suddent without making any changes. However, I've had similiar experiences with computers and electronic devices in general. Having trouble connecting to one particular network, other than at home, would be something that I could live with. Having trouble with many, I could not live with.
    How did you restore it last time? If you used itunes then try directly on the ipad. Do the opposite of what you did before.
    Be aware, this might put you back at square one again with the wifi issue at home.
    But if it were me, I would restore back to factory settings again, just to satisfy my own curiousity.
    How to restore
    Via itunes

    via device

    anyone else having this issue?   any solutions?
    iPhone 5, iOS 8, 64 GB

    hi Franxis . . . below is what I had to do . . . I believe that my  crashing, perpetual rebooting and reset loops was due to some combination of my iPhone 5's hardware, iOS 8.1.1, and some applications.
    I upgraded to iOS 8.1.1 upon release.   approx. 10 hours after this upgrade, the iPhone 5 displayed a bright white screen.  tried hard reset & phone would not turn on.  iPhone eventually turned on, to display lines & colors, but iPhone was inoperable - would not reset using sleep / home key combination or connection to  iTunes
    I brought my iPhone to the Retail Store -  RS was able to reset phone, and then began the process of restoring from my last backup there & said it would continue throughout the day.  After the restore from backup completed, the crashing, perpetual rebooting and reset loops started again.
    1. I was eventually able to perform a DFU &  installed the phone as new (factory reset, I believe).
    2.  I did NOT perform a restore from backup.
    3. The phone seems to run fine now
    The long story is that days 1-3, after the DFU / factory reset, the phone ran fine.  And, on day 4, I began installing Apps again.  When I installed the fourth App, and the phone crashed, changing colors, perpetually rebooting, and unable to start / get into a functional mode.   On day 4, I had to leave the phone alone for a while - was eventually able to perform another DFU - factory reset -  and again no restore from backup.  Today - day 5 - my iPhone is running fine again and I installed 11 Apps now (not the one that crashed my iPhone), accessed them all, and phone seems fine.
    For me, it seems like an App, or some Apps that I was running caused the issues for me - it could be a combination of everything (certain Apps + iOS 8.1.1 + hardware not getting along).

  • Safari issues following latest update

    Hello,
    Am having issues with Safari following the ios8 update - pages not loading, menus not selectable. I am running torch as an emergency and have no issues with that.
    All seems to have happened after yesterdays software update.........imac, IOS8
    Any suggestions?
    daz

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Photo orientation upside down since ios8 update

    This is odd... since the ios8 update, my 5s has started taking photos upside down. They appear correct in the 'viewfinder', but in my 'recently added' they are inverted. While taking the photo, the top bar (which contains the flash settings, HDR, timer and front/back camera switcher) is also upside down. Is this a known issue since the update? Here's a photo of what I mean - and although it looks like the photo in the thumbnail is right-side up, when it is opened, the photo is upside-down.

    Same here with iPhone 6
    I've noticed that the first picture I take is OK...it's all the subsequent pics that are upside down.  If I leave the camera app then come back to it...same thing....first pic is OK and all the rest are upside down.  You can tell before you even take the pic...the flash text (on/off/auto) on the top of the screen will be upside down

  • ICal crashing after iOS8 update

    IiCal won't load, just keeps crashing since iOS8 update. Has anyone else had any similar problems

    Hello there, Debbie479.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some great steps that help when an application(s) isn't functioning as expected or quits unexpectedly.
    With the "Restart" step, make sure you go through and close all applications that are running. If after performing the "Restart" step, you find the issue persists, try the reset portion of the instructions:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
    If the issue continues unresolved, you may want to follow these instructions:
    Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

  • Camera not work ipad 4generation before ios8 update

    Camera not work ipad 4generation before ios8 update
    PLease help

    Hi Hellside,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there is an issue with the camera on your iPad. The article linked below has a lot of great troubleshooting suggestions for a similar issue on an iPhone but the suggestions should resolve the issue with your iPad too.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    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.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    I hope this helps.

  • My iPhone is not receiving mail but these messages continue to flash at the bottom of the screen:  Checking for messages, Updated just now, checking for messages, etc.  After a minute or so it will flash downloading 1 - 32 messages but nothing is received

    My iPhone is not receiving mail but the following messages continue to flash over and over at the bottom of the screen:  "Checking for messages, Updated just now, Checking for messages", etc.  After a minute or so it will flash downloading 1 - 32 messages but nothing is received and then the "Checking for Messages," etc. starts back again.   I turned the phone off for 30+ minutes and also tried to reset it, but the problem continues.   Any ideas on how to solve the problem?

    Double click the home button and swipe up the messages app to stop it, then open the app again. This pretty much completely stops the process and freshly opens it again, resolving problems at times. I have had this happen before as well on my iPad, I get a banner, check messages, and nothing new is there.
    If that doesn't work, close the app like suggested above, but then restart the phone by holding down the home and lock button for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears.

  • Ever since the ios8 updates i cant do calls when i need to or when someone tries to call me or facetime me i would try to accept and it would say connecting or end it. like *** it screwed up my phone. and my apps always crash

    ever since the ios8 updates i cant do calls when i need to or when someone tries to call me or facetime me i would try to accept and it would say connecting or end it. like *** it screwed up my phone. and my apps always crash

    The process may vary among phones, but on the Bionic:
    Power down phone
    Hold volume up/down & power simultaneously
    Use volume down to navigate to 'Recovery', use volume up to select
    Should see screen with triangle and exclamation point next to an Android
    Press volume up/down simultaneously
    Use volume rocker to navigate to 'wipe cache' and use power button to select
    Once finished, use volume rocker to navigate to 'reboot system now' and use power button to select

  • IOS8 update bricked dead my iphone 4s (error 29) - restore to 7.1.2 not working

    IOS 8.0 update OTA to my 4S has killed the device. After the initial attempt failed I tried via iTune Restore and got Error 29.
    Attempts to restore to an older version (7.1.2) failed as well. Same error.
    The phone is stuck in the familiar "connect to iTunes" screen.  
    Has iOS8 destroyed my phone?

    I'll try and simplify a very basic problem for you as you seem to be confused, while many others aren't (I wouldn't be surprised if you are an Apple 'genius').
    Guy with brain and new iPhone battery and relevant screwdriver replaces factory iPhone battery (a factory battery is the battery Apple put in the phone) the factory is replaced with a new battery the iPhone is then plugged in to iTunes to be restored...The error message pops back up again. Thus arriving at the conclusion the battery is not the problem hence why the old battery (the factory battery) goes back in.
    The iPhone was not bought used which is why I was confidently able to say to the Apple 'genius' when I went to the store it had not been tampered with when I had arrived at the store, the tampering of my iPhone only ever took place when I left the store with the Apple 'genius' scratching their heads. The 'natural state' I explained clearly in an earlier post as being how the phone was brand new when I bought it brand new.

  • HP 8620 Touch Screen Unresponsive - Firmware Software Bug?

    Hello, I have the latest "firmware update" on the HP 8620. Can someone please confirm this bug? I don't know if it is just for the HP 8620 or if it applies to all HP touchscreens. Basically if you go into any setting option, then hit the "home" icon and right after you swipe either left or right, it ends up rendering your touch screen unresponsive to swiping left or right. Is this bug already a known issue? The only way to correct the touchscreen so it is responsive again is hit the question mark, or an icon on the bottom and hit the home button (without swiping left/right right after the home button).

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see that you're experiencing issues with your touchscreen on your HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-All-in-One Printer. I will certainly do my best to help you. Please confirm you have the latest Firmware Version: FDP1CN1502AR. If you do not, please go to HP's download page by clicking here. As far as I know, this is not a known issue with the printer or with the printer's Firmware Update. This could be a glitch in the touchscreen, which a Reset should resolve. Let's start by performing a Hard Reset.Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power bar or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.If you're still experiencing issues, we may need to perform a Semi-Full Reset. I can send you that information in a private message. In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it. Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you. Good Luck!

  • Iphone wont turn on after iOS8 update

    I was updating my Iphone with iOS8 update through iTunes on my laptop it went all through until the end i unplugged my phone as it wasn't doing anything then it come up with iTunes logo and charger logo and now it wont turn on at all, I've tried holding the top button and home button and charging it, nothing is working! help me!

    I eventually got it to work by constantly, over and over again,  plugging the iPhone into the mac with my finger on the home butting until one time it recognised it then I went through the factory reset setting for it to just drop off the iTunes pane and jam on me again. I did the same thing (I know the definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result!) again until it recognised it again and thankfully this time it went through all the factory reset process and updated, losing unsaved videos of my sons birthday party the day before in the process ( I thought they got saved to the cloud too, but apparently they don't!) so thats how I fixed it.........that was last Thursday......Today I thought it would be safe enough to update my iPad and guess what? I have been sat here now for an hour, same thing, the update came down, the iPad was prepared for update, the screen went on to the logo screen the bar got to 100, the device disappeared from the iTunes pane and the iPad is stuck in the restart screen!!!! Its been that way for an hour now!!! I am not a happy bunny!!! now I will swiftly be going over to the iPad forums to see if there is any info there about it or should I just try what I did with the phone???? Either way this *****!
