Why does iPad crash
How do I fix iPad when it crashes.
Usually an iPad crashes when an app has an error, or if an app puts more demands on your device than it can handle.
If it's an app, give your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple and it reboots. That can clear glitches.

Why does iPad crash so often?
In the middle of playing games or checking Facebook, my iPad crashes and goes back to home page. It does the same thing when I try to share pictures on Facebook. I went to the Apple store today and they helped me backup everything and then completely reset my iPad. The crashes are still happening. Does this mean I need a new iPad?? I don't know what else to do.
Do you have an iPad 1? If you have a newer iPad you need to update to iOS 7.1.

Why does iPad crash when I open Mail app?
My iPad crashes (returns to home screen) each time I open the Mail app. Mail opens for just two seconds, then crashes.
All updates are current on Mac and iPad. I have synced the iPad with my Mac and power-cycled the iPad but nothing helps.
Can I delete and reload just the Mail app? If so, how is that done?
Or do I need connect the iPad to my Mac and do a full Restore of my iPad?
Any suggestions?

1. Delete the mail account from your iPad
2. Clean out your mail server. This is typically the webmail from your mail service provider.
3. Readd the account.
Even if you clear out the server, if the account isn't deleted and readded only when the server is clean then the iPad will still try to download the email.
As I wrote earlier:
I have reinstalled my email account twice I got my iPad three weeks ago then and today the problem has risen again.
It may be a solution here and now but I don't find it reasonable that we have to delete and reenter our account info every time we need to use our mail app.
Already from the start there were problems; the mail app froze and I had to restart my iPad...2-3 times during the first couple of days. Normally I am a type who takes this rather casual but I do not think Apple wants us to reinstall our mail account every couple of days, huh? ;o) -

why does ibooks crash on ipad air using 8.02?
Hi DizzyTaco2,
If you are having issues with an Apple application such as iBooks freezing or quitting unexpectedly on your iPad, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close
Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Why does iTunes crashing on iPhone after launch?
Why does iTunes crashing on iPhone after launch?
Hey
First, try force closing the Music app, which you can find out how to do here:
iOS: Force an app to close

And if it still doesn't work when you try to re-open it, I would then reset the device:
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

There is a bug in the spellchecking functionality when typing in the web view or while using Blogsy App. Why? Why my IPad crashes so often?
I have always found spell check to be "buggy" in every version of all of the iOS's that I have run on my original model iPad and my new iPad - especially when replying and typing posts in these forums. It works perfectly in every other application on my iPad but it has never worked perfectly in any web browser that I have used on my iPad - no matter what I have done to try to correct it. That is what MY experience has been with spell check on my iPads.
As for the crashes on your iPad try these basic troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
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.
Quit all apps and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -

That won't do. What I mean is you have to navigate to the file and make it active in pastebin and then copy the highlighted line like this

I think this is done by the browser when it is saving a temporary file and there's already a file with that exact name in the temp folder.

Why does Safari crash on my internal start-up disk and not on a booted SuperDuper external disk?
Safari started behaving weird with very high CPU usage, then it refused to start up altogether, it doesn't even reach the safari icon when it crashes.
Did repair disk permissions. No good.
Around the same day i also lost the connection with my TimeMachine drive (third time this year). I've had it with timemachine.

Why does Safari crash in the middle of a movie or show from the internet?
Why does Safari crashes in the middle of a movie or show from the internet?
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful. -
Why does safari crash after lion upgrade
why does safari crash after lion upgrade
Right or control click the Safari app in the Applications folder then click Get Info.
In the Get Info panel, look for the Safari version number. If it's prior to Safari 6, updating to Safari 6 may help.

Go to your Downloads folder and double click that file and follow the instructions for installing.

Why does fcpx crash every time i try to edit titles/text??
why does fcpx crash every time i try to edit titles/text?? I'm trying to wrap up a project for work and now fcpx thinks it needs to crash every time i click on a "title" to edit it. It's making the completion of this project nearly impossible.
nope, i'm just using the select tool "a" to move my titles .. if the inspector is open, the second i click on any title in any project the whole program crashes. but with the inspector closed i can move my titles at will without a crash. i'm not sure what's allowing me to manipulate titles since you've said Lion updates haven't fixed this function. and i'm not sure what's making fcpx crash to the ground every time i click a title with the inpector open. all i know is that this little loophole i've found is working for me and has allowed me to complete my project this morning which is awesome.

Why does iPad 3 4G constantly restart after 8.3 update only when docked with iMac?
That question is impossible to answer without more information. What troubleshooting steps have you performed? Did you try using another cable? Did you try using another USB port on the Mac? Did you reboot the Mac and reset the iPad? Have you tired restoring the iPad?
