Why did my iPad 2 stop responding last night after an ad poped up from the FIFA 12 app?

After starting the FIFA app a pop up ad came up then my iPad stopped responding and froze. I tried double clicking the home button to froce close the app, that's when the iPad shut itself down and restarted on its own. Has this happened to anyone or what can I do to prevent this from happening again.

I do not know of any way a device can do anything when sleeping.
Unfortunately, I do not know of any log files (similar to ones on a computer).
I would check with your ISP or phone service provider to see what is going on (they should have log files).

  • Why does my iPad mini stop responding to wifi after a period of time?

    Why does my iPad mini stop responding to wifi after a period of time?
    For example, I can connect to wifi and use Safari and my iPad's interet capabilities with no problem. But if I then leave my iPad alone for an hour - when I go back to using it, it still shows as being connected to the wifi, but is unresponsive - i.e. web pages will not load etc. - I have to disconnect and reconnect to the wifi to make it responsive.
    In advance, thanks

    Try #5
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Wifi Doesn't Connect After Waking From Sleep - Sometimes increasing screen brightness prevents the failure to reconnect after waking from sleep. According to Apple, “If brightness is at lowest level, increase it by moving the slider to the right and set auto brightness to off.”

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • Why did my main stage stop responding?

    I try to open from the dock and from within the applications menu and it won't open either way. When I go to force quit and it says "Mainstage not responding" I was able to get into it one time and it worked and I was excited with the possibilities... now =( 
    If anyone has had any experience with this problem and can help... pleeeeeeeeeze do! =) Mark

    Not 'quite'.... MS 2.2.1 does not scan for Sampler Instruments stored using Alias folders with more than 1 level.
    So it does not take so long to scan... ;-(

  • 5.1 is out today for T-mobile - why did I just get 5.0 last night? and why did I get Verizon Cloud - draining battery

    5.0 messed up email, added Verizon Cloud and that appears to be what was using battery - can't find it to uninstall it - where is it?

        Oh boy! What seems to be going on with the email since your update? Was the Verizon Cloud launched? If not, what happens as you go in to clear the app cache? http://vz.to/13JmFX8

  • My home sharing stopped working last night after finishing a movie.

    I had just finished watching a movie and had planned to watch a second one when my power began flickering. My apple TV then couldn't connect to the iTunes store so I restarted my apple TV and the only things that came us were computer and settings. I thought to myself that my cable/internet must be out. But that's OK because I've downloaded all my purchases from iTunes onto my computer and I'd simply stream the content from my computer. It didn't work. I was unable to watch any content through my apple TV. Yet, I could watch content on my iPod and my computer, but I didn't want to sit in my cramped study. Is there a setting I need to change so that apple TV can stream from my computer?

    Addendum: I've tried restarting my PC, my iPhone. I've tried switching Home Sharing on and off.
    In the playlists, songs, artists, etc. it simply says "No Music".

  • Why did my iPad Mini screen start glitching out of no where?!

    Why did my iPad Mini screen start glitching out of no where?! Hard reset did not fix issue... Which I could barely see the display at it was.. Please help..

    Has the unit EVER been jailbroke?  Has it EVER been dropped?  Did it EVER get excessively wet?  Did you EVER load a pirated developer's version of the IOS?
    If "No" to all the above, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

    Just updated details - os x 10.8.5 .....
    found an answer that could have been problem with CPU and a runaway application (possibly Bin Weevils) which my son was running at the time.  I shall check the activity monitor next time to see what percentage cpu is being used..

    Why has my ipad mini stopped connecting with my iPhone 4S? I used to use it to download books, or transfer emails to my ipad mini. It was fine 3 days ago, now I get a message saying " cannot join with iPhone" Any help greatly appreciated.

    You can try resetting your iPad and iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Mac OSX Lion: Why does PS CS6 BETA stop responding after attempting to import pdf?

    Mac OSX Lion: Why does PS CS6 BETA stop responding after attempting to import single pdf or multiple pdfs? frequently happens(2/3 times)

    Can you provide any more information about the files that are causing the problems? Are these particularly large files? Many pages or images? Have you opened these files in Photoshop CS5, or other versions of Photoshop?
    What do you see when you try to import these PDFs? Do you get the PDF Import dialog, allowing you to select pages or images from the PDF? Is so, is it hanging when you click OK or at another time?
    Any more details about the problem or other info (as well as sample files) you can provide, the easier it will be for us to help identify the cause of your problems.

    Try a reset:

  • Face book has stopped working on my I pad.  I got to it through Safari as i do on my mac. It works on my mac but stopped working last night on my i-pad

    face book has stopped working on my I pad.  I got to it through Safari as i do on my mac. It works on my mac but stopped working last night on my i-pad

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
    If you stillc an't access Facebook via Safari then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    There are a number of Facebook apps (including an 'official' one), which might be better than accessing it via Safari

  • I plugged my iPad in to charge last night.  This morning, it won't turn on, anybody have any suggestions as to what is going on?  I have only had this iPad for a little over a month!

    I plugged my iPad in to charge last night.  I plugged it into the wall and I have never had any problems.  I have had this iPad for a little over a month.  This morning, when I went to look something up, it wasn't responding.  It won't turn on, I get nothing on the screen, and if I plug it in to charge, to the wall or my computer, nothing happens.  Has anyone else had this issue?  I can't think of what else to try or what to do next.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't help I suggest having a technician look at your iPad. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
