When turning Off Restrictions, iPad moves previously restricted apps to the home screen

I this normal?
I've had the iPad Air for about 2 weeks now... and I'm sure I haev set and disables restrictions about a week ago with no problem....
But now..
If I restrict apps for age 9+ for example... those apps will be hidden from their folders... which is good and works as it should be.
When I then disable the restrictions it takes the app shortcut out of the folder and leaves it on the home screen!
To test this again I again enabled restrictions on ALL apps and then disabled the restrictions.... and the result was that ALL of my downloaded apps got moved out of their folders and placed on the home screen.
The apps like calendar and face time that come with the iPad were left in their folders.
What's going on????

Thanks for the help... It's too bad that it works that way.... I have folders for each person in the family and wanted to age-restrict apps when my kids were playing, then disable restrictions whenever I was going to use it.... I guess I'll just have to leave those age restricted apps on the home screen.
I have submitted feedback.

Press and hold BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button until you see the Apple logo on the screen.

...I have Theme L selected and I get 10 icons along the left side and bottom....
...I am thinking I may be limited to 10 icons....
Gotcha... But actually its limited to 9 icons in the L theme as the Profiles icon is always present. From that screen hit the Menu key to display the bigger list of icons. Arange them so the first 9 icons are the ones you want to see on the L theme.

When using my phone it sometimes will go back to the home screen

When I'm using my phone it will go back to the home screen !! Annoying help

Your first post was that when trying to take a photo or going online it would go back to the display screen.
I would first go to settings to general to reset all settings. If this does not resolve the issue you will then want to back up all data and then restore device back to default settings. Obviously a software issue.

Unable to turn off voice over and all of a sudden the touch screen is extremely slow to respond.

I am unable to turn off Siri/voice over and the touch screen is nearly unresponsive. Brought it to Best Buy to have the geeks look at it and and weren't really receptive unless I ponied up some cash for a service plan. Was hoping someone could help me out. Thanks!

- What hapens when you
Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. I
- Next see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:
iPhone: Configuring accessibility features (including VoiceOver and Zoom)
- Then try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I powered off my Ipad and it is stuck on the blue screen and won't shut off. What can I do?

I shut down my Ipad but it has become stuck in shutdown mode on the blue screen and won't turn off. What can I do to turn it off and try to restart it?

Both buttons:

My Ipad is stuck in zoom on the home screen.

It won't turn off (though it will sleep), and triple tapping with 3 fingers, and tripple taping the home button rappidly won't work. Please help

Try a reset, press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. Also when in zoom if you put three fingers on the screen can you move the picture around ?

Hi upgraded my iphone 5 and now two of my apps keep crashing when I press on them it just goes back to the home screen one is Facebook and the other is my fitbit app.

Hi upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7.1 and now my Facebook and fitbit app won't work it just keeps going back to front screen and suggestions on how I can fix this if so please put answer in simple words. Thanks

Hello Glenys,
It sounds like you have 2 apps that are not working as expected. I recommend the steps from the following article named:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
These steps will get you started but therea are more if needed:
Restart the app
Close the app and open it again.
Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.
Update your device software and your apps
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
Update your apps:
Open the App Store and tap Updates.
If updates are available, tap Update All.
If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
Install another app from the App Store
If your installed app won't open, download and install a free app that isn't on your iOS device. This should reset your Apple ID authorization.
Remember to use the same Apple ID that you used to download the app that you're having issues with.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

HT4623 Since I upgraded my iPad to iOS7 my wallpaper on the home screen is fuzzy and won't set?

Is there a fix for the iPad after I have upgraded to the iOS7 my home screen wallpaper won't set and is all blurry?

Try this. Go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Reduce Motion>Off. Then go to Settings>Wallpaper and Brightness and selet your wallpaper again - or try scaling the wallpaper again that you are currently using. If you have enlarged the wallpaper too much, then you lose resolution because you are enlarging the pixels and that makes the photos look burry.
Something else that you can try is to reset the iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen. After the iPad restarts, see what the background looks like.

the new virsoin got a lot of glitchs. when is the new virsion coming out

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPad 1 has started reverting to the home screen at random intervals in all different applications. Cause and fix?

I have searched and cannot find a solution. I have reset device and done a factory wipe back to original specs. No change. It appears to be a potential operating system issue but I cannot find any fixes. Apple has nothing posted about this problem I can find. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

When i unplug my iphone 4s from my car charger, the home screen gets huge. cant restart or shut down

i just got home, my iphone 4s was charging via usb and connected via bluetooth to my sync system. Whe I shut down the vehicle and unplugged the power cord, the phone display gets huge. cant shut down or see the icons

Hey viviet,
I would run through the iPhone troubleshooting assistant and see if that solves any of the issues you're experiencing:

Problem when turn on mini Ipad.

I have problem when turn on mini ipad. I have to slice the unlock after it flashing 3 times and not after flashing5 times!!
After the unlock flashing 5 times it will turn off the screen and I have to push any button on my ipad mini to activate the screen to turn on again every time!
Do I have to set something in setting to avoid this situation? It's boring to count the flashing of the unlock 3 times to slice it!!!
My iOS version is already updated but the problem still as the same since I got it on December 2012

Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

Try this - 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.)

A week ago, I got a red circle with the number 1 on it on the "setting" app on my home screen. I went to settings and there is a notification on the general tab about iso7 for my ipad. Read it and went back to home screen, but red circle won't go off.

Red circle on "settings" app on home screen. It's notifying me of the new iso7 software available I have read the notification but the red one on the settings app on the home screen won't go out as they do after reading the notification. Any ideas?

Have you turned off the device or reset it by pressing the top on/off button and the home button at the same time?
Try that
