Since I upgraded my ipad mini to ios7 my battery life has diminished significantly
I've noticed that ever since I upgraded my ipad mini to ios7, the battery runs down much more quickly. I close out of apps when I'm not using them, turned off location services, and took a number of other recommended steps, but it still seems a lot worse than it was on the old OS. Any suggestions? Is there any way to get back to the old OS?
Rolling back is not supported by Apple.
Have you look into background app refresh, background app update and notifications? Turning those off may help.

After upgrading my iPhone 4s to iOS8 my battery life has been cut in half
After upgrading my iPhone 4s to iOS8 my battery life has been cut in half
Mail is 44% of the battery - I get about 300 emails through MSexchange and 25 through hotmail and .25 from cogeco.
Home & Lock Screen is 19%
Phone is 14%
Calendar 11%
Is there a bug in mail or is it just too much volume?I see the same thing after upgrading to ios8 on my iphone 4S.
In my case, Mail is 76% of my activity. Disabling my mail accounts allows me to go back to my once a day charging routine. Otherwise, my battery runs down from 100% to 9% in 3.5 hours. I have two mail accounts. One exchange based the other is gmail. -

Just upgraded my iPad Mini to iOS7. Asking for a passcode
I've never given my iPad Mini a passcode.
I've just upgraded it to iOS7. The process never asked me for a passcode, either. Then, when I started it up after the upgrade, the first thing it asked for was a passcode.
I tried the usual "default" type codes, like 1111 and 0000 but it has now locked me out and says the device is "disabled".
Any ideas, please? How can I get this thing working again, and avoid the same happening again?
Thanks.
TomOK, success.
Used recovery mode and restored from the backup created as part of the iOS7 upgrade. This time, when the iPad started, it asked me things like whether I wanted Location Services on, and THEN said that if I wanted to use "Find my iPad" I'd need a passcode. On the previous start up, all these introductory steps were missing and the iPad went straight to asking me for a (non-existent) passcode. This is clearly an example of the installation bug mentioned in the Australian news item I posted above.
Anyhow, I now seem to be running, with no loss of data, just a fraught hour of my time.

I have an ipad mini that keeps shutting down ever since I upgraded to ios 7.1.2.
Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

Cannot get my PC to recognize my iPad so I can transfer photos. iTunes does sync.
Hey there Sandyp228,
If I understand correctly, it sounds like your iPad Mini is not recognized in iTunes on your PC. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

Ipad mini, after ios7 upgrade if turn off the mobile data, my carrier gets turned off and wifi doesnt work at all. Its slow and app store crashes everytime. Help me to gowngrade to ios6. This really *****.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Then restart your iPad.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, then swipe the slider to power off.
Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Downgrading is not an option for an iOS device. -
I updated my ipad mini to ios7 and after that the restrictions have been turned on automatically. It was off before the update and I din do after either. I tried 1234 but it doesn't work. Please help me.
1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
Is your iPad working? -
Before I upgraded my iPad mini, you could turn off apps to save battery power by double clicking the control button and then holding your finger on the app button until the minus sign appeared. That doesn't work anymore. How do you turn off the apps with ios7
Now you swipe downward, the app will appear and you delete, keep scolling to the right as in the past. With the new operating system you also swipe downward to get the search bar to find an app

I have an Ipad mini with IOS7. A few days ago I began to have problems with wifi connectivity. I can connect to wifi with Google but cannot navigate in Safari nor any of my aps are able to acess wifi. Very strange. Not sure what to do!
Hi ..
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
If nothing above has helped, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections -
Since system upgrade on ipad, I am unable to purchase or update any of my apps.
This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iPad forum.

Should I upgrade my iPad mini from iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 7.1.1? Thanks in advance
Should I upgrade my iPad mini from iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 7.1.1? Thanks in advance
No, it's not true. If someone were to buy it from you then it would have to be completely restored as new at which time only the then current version of iOS can be installed. Having an older version on it now makes it worth no more than if it had 7.1.1 installed.
When you sell or give it away the new user cannot use anything on the device that is registered to your Apple ID. That's everything. You will need to turn off Find My Phone, remove the phone from your @icloud.com Find My Phone, then erase it completely. Unless you do that the device is useless to another owner. Erasing it will result in having the new iOS version installed.
