Since iOS 8.3 upgrade school iPads need to reset very often
Since iOS 8.3 upgrade school iPads need to reset (holding down home and power button) very often as they do not turn on. iPads are charged at the time.
Anyone know how to fix this? It is making life at the school quite difficult.I take that back, music is messed up too! Some of the "default" playlists, such as "recently added" , "Recently played" and "Top 25 Most Played" are listed on iTunes and were always on my phone... but since iOS 8.3... they are gone... Still in iTunes, but not on device.

I have upgrade ios 6 to ios7 on my iphone 5. I do NOT like it at all. I want to come back to the previous version. why is it so complicated? Why can I not find the instruction strait from apple? This is the worst possible upgrade ever. It make me think of when ericsson got sold to Sony....drastic PC change.
I would like to have simple instruction on how to downgrade.
It feel like a change that I did not ask for , ok I push the upgrade buttom, but really this is the worst update aver!

I bought an iPhone 4 from a youngster who had put his own Apple ID on it but could not remember the password. I backed it up yesterday and restored to my new iPhone and it copied the Apple ID across too. Now I have 2 phones with it on. Anything I do?
that must be really annoying !!
so this is what you call
FIND MY IPHONE ACTIVATION LOCK Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
when you start using iCloud on any iOS device and enable find my iPhone, this prevents a new user from using it, and also prevents anyone from using the phone
as it is locked to previous owners account ,this is also the case if when a phone is lost or stolen.
the only way around this is to have the previous owner reset their apple id by going to @ applied.apple.com
if they are unable to do this, then the only other way around this is to have the previous owner get a copy of their original receipt and call apple support who can then lift this lock if they get a copy of the receipt
unfortunately there is no quick fix -> the below link explains what you should do before you sell or give away an iPhone

What is wrong with this picture? We are forced to vent on forums and rely on other users to find answers to our problems. Obviously, after reading other posts, we all suffer from poor quality controls before release of upgrades and new "toys"! I have an iPad Air replacing an iPad 1st Gen bought on the first day of release. Was happy until iOS 7 was introduced. Since then, many frozen screens on the web, unexpected shut downs for reboot. No, it is not full, as I have over 70gigs available. I close my apps regularly so they don't run in the background. NOW, since the release of iOS 8, my wifi connection is slow like ****, to almost not working. And I haven't even ungraded to iOS 8! Is this Apple's new way to force me to upgrade? My iPhone 4S is faster, although I have to change it. No battery life, regular unexpected shutdowns. JUST WRITING THIS POST IS PAINFULL: at one point, I was only able to erase text by backing up... No editing possible, no new typing either... As if I was monitered and they did not agree with my text. So weird... Anyways it is back now. As I was saying, need to change phone, but I am afraid to buy the 6 with iOS 8.
SO, here are my questions: what can i do for my iPad Air connectivity issues? And between an iOS 7 iPhone 5S and iOS 8 iPhone 6, what to choose?If you don't like to be helped by other users that volunteer their time to help other users, then go to your nearest Apple store, and talk to a Genius there at the bar. Call up Apple Support. There are ways to get direct Apple Support. These forums are here to help out those who want help. Not for those who just want to vent.

The iPad Air shipped with iOS 7 from factory, so not sure what that means. it worked with 7 but then it did not?
Whatever is going on with your iPad now, is completely unrelated to the release of iOS 8. Apple does not tamper with the devices to force you to update. In fact you don't even have to update at all. I know people still using iOs 6 because they like it.
Personally I updated my iPad 2, an iPad Mini, and my iPhone 5 to iOS 8 and have experience none of the issues that seem to plague people. Should i automatically assume the update is flawless? No, but I also don't assume that Apple is causing issues to my devices remotely. That is just ludicrously ridiculous.
The forum software here does have many issues. It also ironically enough doesn't get along with iPads very well for some reason, but Apple has nothing to do with that. Jive, the makers of the forum software provide it to Apple and maintain it as well. If there are issues with the forum software we report them to them, and they try to fix them.
With that said, apple sold over 10 million iPhone 6s on launch, have you seen anywhere near that many complaints about it?
In a pool of devices that large there's bound to be issues, but its still a very very small percentage of users having any issues at all let alone device breaking ones which are even less.
Good luck finding another Technology company that has a percentage of issues as low as Apple has in a pool of devices as large as the one Apple manages.
As a final point, what have you tried to solve the slowness and other issues you are experiencing. Sometimes software suffers bugs. If resetting the device has not fixed this perhaps a restore may work out.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings -
We have used the 2 Apple TVs and the 5 different IPads successfully on both Apple TVs. But the iPad air, on the same content, on the same network, on the same Apple TV drops off the Apple TV and the content starts playing on the iPad. When we choose Apple TV on the AirPlay button, it starts playing on the TV again. It does this about 6-7 times an hour. We have the latest software update. We have also deleted and reinstalled the App to play the context (iView) and it still does this.
Hey there TandViv,
It sounds like your other iPads work correctly when Airplaying to your Apple TV, but one disconnects about ever 10 mintues or so. I have a few thoughts for this issue you are seeing. First, try closing all the apps:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone and test it again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists try resetting the network settings on the phone and see how that works:
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
From: iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

All the best,

After recent updates hundred of ppl can not connect to wifi anymore( incl myself)
Really annoying and all kinds of ideas how to fix it did not work out for me
I am out of warranty for 1mth and the apple shop did not even make a bit of afford to help
I am wondering if apple is working on a solution to fix this problem at all? Maybe with the next update?I am aware of that !I just wonder if anyone has any news about this dramas-I actually hope someone says that apple is try to work on it!
No way they can leave all this ppl out there with this problem without doing anything about it -
I am VERY upset after spending a chunk of money for the entire series of Walking Dead on ******* itunes. I cannot watch any of the **** episodes but the first 30 seconds. How the **** can i get my money back and warn others of this rip off?? Being an Corporate Attorney, do I need to sue iTunes to get my money back?? Yes my language dont come from an spoken attorney but from an ANGRY user!!!!!!
Use the "report a problem" link on your receipt or your iTunes account purchases section to ask for a refund.

Why does my ipad air keep shutting down
Why does my new ipad air keep shutting down?
No one here can answer that. Try a reset (hold the home and power keys down until the Apple logo appears). If that does not help, take it in for diagnosis.

Who can shed some light on my ongoing connection problem.
After upgrading my iPad Air with IOS 7.06, I could no longer connect to the internet.
I have 2 MacBooks Air, 1 ipad mini and one iPhone 4S running on the same network, and they are all connected to the net and function well.
So I cleaned up the ipad completely, installed the latest firmware and reinstalled my apps : no connection.
I tried all things of resets and forgets. No result.
I have been fondling with my Airport Extreme 5 , but that did not help much.
This morning I went to a neighbor , hooked my ipad air on his network, typed the password and the thing all worked fine.
I have tried to connect the ipad air as an ethernet client, but that did not work. „Not enough power“ was the statement
Ideas anyone ?Yes I tried this manyfold. But did not work. Reading on, I took Tesserac's advice. Shut down router and computer.
Start router after 15 minutes and wait another 10 minutes before starting the computer.
Et voila.... everything is back in working order,
Regards form Curacao, Dutch Caribean.

Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?
And Apple won't tell you. All they will tell you is what countries are supported for LTE right now. You can express your interest to Apple via their feedback pages, if you wish:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
but you will not receive a reply. It may be waiting on Telcel to approve. They may not feel that their LTE network is robust enough to handle that much load yet. But I'm just guessing. We'll just have to wait and see what develops.

Since iOS 6 doesnt Databackup with iPad and iPhone work.
Since iOS 6 doesnt Databackup with iPad and iPhone work. What is the reason? any ideas?
Try this first - Reset 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Since I can't upgrade my iPad 1 to iOS 6, is it now vulnerable to security threats?
Since I can't upgrade my iPad 1 to iOS 6, is it now vulnerable to security threats?
According to my brief search on the support site, there is some discussion on this very topic. No operating system is completely secure!! Read http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5503 for iOS 6 security content. Since Apple does not want to provide support for the iPad 1, I have now stopped doing anything online that requires a password or other sensitive data. No more new apps or upgrades to my present apps. It has gone from a fantastic piece of technology to a toy in two years.

Updated to IOS 8.1.3 and it ruined my ipad air
I regret updating....never had issues before and now wifi connection is constantly lost...pages won't load....apps freeze up. SO
disgusted. Why does apple keep doing this?????hikingrocks32 wrote:
Not quite sure what I am supposed to be trouble shooting when device worked fine BEFORE update.
Because tthere are a lot of variables, not just the device and version. If you have never heard the expression "correlation does not imply causation" this is a good time to learn it. There are a HALF BILLION iOS devices in use, and probably at least 100 million of them have been updated to 8.1.3. if this was an iOS problem you would see millions of posts here and banner headlines in every newspaper in the world "Apple screws up big time-Epic Fail". I bet you haven't seen any headlines like that. I haven't.
If you just came to rant I won't bother replying again. If you actually want help fixing it here are some basic troubleshooting steps:
Does this happen with every wifi network or only your home network? If it is all networks focus on the iPad; if only your home network, the router.
If it's only the Home network reboot your router. Unplug it from the wall for about a minute to force it to reconnect to the phone and find an interference-free channel.
Likewise, if that doesn't fix it, go to Settings/WiFi, tap on the i next to the network name and tap "forget this network." Then reconnect.
The next step if it still doesn't work is to go to settings/general/reset - Reset Network Settings. This will erase all wifi passwords, but you won't lose any other data.
By now it will probably be fixed. If it isn't you can try restoring iOS using iTunes in case the update did not install correctly.
If the issue happens with all networks and none of the above steps fix it take the iPad to an Apple Store. Make a Genius Bar appointment first.
