Turning off iPad after use

I notice that whenever I turn off iPad and then turn it back on later, it seems to run more efficiently. Will turning it off after every use and then turn it back on later be bad for the life of the iPad?

Shouldn't be - there are no moving parts, so no extra wear and tear. I restart mine periodically (maybe once a week or so)
A possible explanation is that restarting kills off all running apps, freeing up memory. You might get the same effect by using the multi-tasking bar to kill off surplus apps. Double-tap the Home button to get the bar, then tap and hold an app icon until they show the red badge. Tap the red badge for each one you want to kill off.

  • TS3274 I have a black screen with the circle downloading on the i pad but it won't turn off even after using troubleshooting tips. Does anyone know what to do ?

    I have a black screen which has the downloading circle going round and round but which is otherwise frozen and won't respond to
    troubleshooting suggestions for turning it off and rebooting. Any suggestions please ?

    Reboot:  Do this exactly:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until you see the Apple Logo, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart.

  • Off button doesn't turn off iPhone5 after using third party car charger.

    After trying to use a third party car charger from Amazon.ca, my iPhone5 no longer shuts down by holding down the power button.  Also, when I want to put the phone to sleep and push the power button quickly, it doesn't sleep so I have to hold it down for a couple of seconds.  Sometimes it doesn't sleep at all.  I tried restoring my phone but that didn't help the problem.

    I would check your serial number here, https://ssl.apple.com/support/iphone5-sleepwakebutton/ , and see if your iPhone may be one of the devices that qualifies.

  • Apple logo keeps repeating, cant turn off even after using MENU+Middle

    Whenever I was uploading music to my ipod, then i check the music and when I click on it (on my Ipod) nothing playing, i restart the Ipod now the Apple logo repeats itself over and over and i cant turn it off or get it to work. HELP.

    leave it connected to the computer for a while and try the reset ( menu and middle button) again....
    if the apple logo is still the only thing appearing i would go ahead and send that in for repair

    or you can take it to a apple store if there is one near you

  • Duplicates & triplicate Calendar items on my ipad after using the iCloud..

    i have duplicates Calendar items on my ipad after using the iCloud.. what am i doing wrong?? and how do i fix it?

    This solved my triplicate calendar issue:
    (short version)
    Settings ==> iCloud. Turn off Calenders.
    Delete exisiting calendar information when prompted.
    Settings ==> iCloud. Turn on Calenders.
    Restart Calender App.
    (verbose version)
    On your iOS devices go to Settings App ==> iCloud. Turn OFF Calendar Syncing. It will ask if you want to keep or delete previous Calendars on your phone, Choose Delete. Restart your Calendar app and see if it's squeaky clean. I had just birthdays and anniverseries. If you are still seeing items other than those (like birthdays) generated by the device then you are bringing in calendars from multiple sources. You'll need to turn off the other sources (if you have their entries duplicated already in the cloud).
    Now go back to Settings ==> iCloud and turn the calender back on. Restart the Calendar app, everything should look good now.

  • AppleScript to turn off Bluetooth after an hour of no usage

    I'm interested in making an AppleScript that will turn off Bluetooth after a bluetooth device is not used for (let's say) one hour. The script should run only on battery life, not when the computer is plugged in.
    Any ideas on how to start? Thanks.

    I don't think there's any way (at least easy way) to do this.
    AppleScript is very good at initiating events, but not good at responding to them. As such it's not easy to write a script in this manner. About the only way to do this would be to have a stay-open script that periodically checks the list of connected devices and keeps track of when the last bluetooth device was used - however, there's a big difference between being 'used' and being 'connected'... you may have a bluetooth headset 'connected', but if you're not running any audio apps it might not be used, and that's hard to AppleScript to determine.

  • HT4203 I have turned off the Data use on the I-phone 4s but am told by AT&T that data is still being used for applications.  How is this possible. Can someone help me understand this.  Thanks.

    I assume you are including the STIX font as part of your epub files?     
    Perhaps the folks who do this blog might be able to help -- they have done some work with font embedding:

    I have iPad 3, while using Facebook app, the turn off itself while using, I have to restart it again, but agin and again it turns off.

    Any suggestions

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

  • 4s turn off suddenly while using

    my 4s will turn off suddenly while using ,and i have to hit home and power button same time to turn on the iphone.it happens every two days,and sometimes twice a day.is it a hardware problem?

    possibly
    you want to restore the device as new after backing up your information then test it out
    that will tell you whether its the device itself or the software causing the issue
    sometimes apps can be corrupt or anything liek that causing it to do that

  • Does iPod nano automatically turns off if not used in 2 minutes?

    Does iPod nano automatically turns off if not used in 2 minutes?
    this is the questions tha runs my mind bcoz I just bought it about 2 weeks ago and just this recently I noticed that it automatically switches off after 2 minutes if remained untouched even if i did not set the sleep mode. Well, it normally functions coz during playing a song it does not sleeps but by the time pausing the song and after two minutes the nano switches off, but if you press any key it goes back again and you can play the paused song again. is this thing normal? i am really bothered by this. please help me THANKS A LOT

    I recently bought a 2nd Generation 8Gb iPod Nano and can state for a fact that if you pause a song for exactly two minutes the device will turn off, probably to save batttery power. I tested it three times already and clocked it.
    However, I also noticed that my iPod also seems to turn off by itself (even when sleep / timer is not selected) when I'm shuffling through songs using the forward/next and/or rewind/back buttons repeatedly.
    Is this normal, or just a bad coincidence?
    I've tried the 5 Rs but the problem persists. It really annoys me because I have the habit of skipping lots of songs.

    My iPhone 4 turns off (crashes) after accesing any apps, It work fine when plugged to charger (power supply). I tried all troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple but it doesn't work. I backed up my phone. I restored it several times. Even I re-installed iphone software. Also I restored it as a new iphone but doesn't work. What could be the problem and what are the availble solutions?

    We can't know if there's a "fixture" because we can't examine your phone.  But Apple can.  Make a Genius Bar appointment and get your phone evaluated.

    Updated to iOS 7.1 and my location arrow won't turn off. It used to. Any ideas? Help would be appreciated!

    Check in Settings > Privacy > Location Services to see which apps are using Location Services. Turn off those you don't want or need.
    Also be sure to close apps you are not using by double=tapping the Home button and swiping apps up.
