Why does iPad spontaneously shut down apps?

My iPad has started spontaneously shutting down Apps, with no action from me. I try to make sue I don't have too many Apps opened that are not in use, so I don't think it's a memory issue. Sometimes it actually causes a restart, but not always. Anyone else experiencing similar actions?

Hi,
Restore your iPad but not from a backup as you may re introduce the problem all over again.
Instructions here.

You may want to sync maybe 5 apps at a time after the restore, then test the iPad. Might be one app that's the culprit.

  • Why does my Mac shut down when using Safari?

    Every once in a while (randomly) my mac will reboot due to an error even when I only have the Safari Application open. How can I stop my mac from doing this. I have the 2011 macbook pro 13 inch with the latest OS (Mountain Lion). Everything is up to date but why does it keep shutting down?

    Hi Sebaz, first try repairing permissions. Go to Applications-->Utilities-->select Disk Utility. Select your drive then select the First Aid button then  at the bottom right click Verify Disk and after it verifies your drive click on Verify Disk Permissions on the left. If there any errors click on Repair Disk Permission. Reboot your machine and test your Safari to see if the issue comes back.

  • Why does iPhone 5 shuts down in  2 C degrees? This should be inside operating temperature limits?

    Hello,
    Why does iPhone 5 shuts down with  +2 C (celsius) degrees outside? This should be inside operating temperature limits? I´m living in Estonia and I was using iPhone 5 approximately 1 hour with +2 C (celsius) outside. Suddenly it just powered itself off with 25% of remaining battery. I was not able to switch it on again before warming it up inside the house.
    I´ve been reading lots of similar complaints regarding other customers iPhone 5-s. Seems that the problem may be the aluminium back cover and thin, large-surfaced battery cause older iPhones are operating with same temperature just fine. Do you have any plan to fix this issue in the future?
    Best regards,

    You're not speaking to Apple, just your fellow users.  The specs say it's good down to 0°C... sounds like you have a hardware problem, likely battery.  Contact Apple, it's still under warranty.
    Hint: NEVER put your personal info in a public forum.  Edit your post to remove this info.  Also, I'll ask the moderators to do it if you can't.

  • Why does my Safari shut down when loading a page?

    Why does my Safari shut down when I'm trying to load a page?

    Is this for a Mac? You posted in the Beta for Windows section, you might want to try the Beta for Mac pages instead and see if anyone there know a good fix. Is this just with Adobe's PDF reader, or with Preview too? A workaround could simply be switching to a different reader, if you simply cannot find what causes the crashes. A clean reinstall might do the trick, if you haven't done so already.
    If this is on Windows than I would recommend downloading the PDF plugin from http://www.apple.com/safari/download/plugins.html

  • My iPad randomly shuts downs apps and safari...any suggestions? The pad it's self doesn't shut down..it just closes the page or app I am on..

    My iPad randomly shuts down apps and Safari...any fixes for this?

    Basic troubleshooting steps might help. If you are using the iPad 1, low memory issues may be causing the app and Safari to crash.
    Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your 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 of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. 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.
    Reboot 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.
    Definitely do this - Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. 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.

  • Why does my iphone shut down my computer when i have pictures on my phone

    Why does my iphone shut down my computer when I plug into the USB port when I have pictures on my phone.  My computer says it has found a new digital camera - then my computer shuts down.

    Thank you Lawrence.  I forgot I used to run a Logitech webcam several years ago and I hadn't uninstalled program when I changed the camera to a different one.  I uninstalled the camera and it now seems to accept my phone with pictures onto my computer without shutting my computer down. I really appreciate your help with this problem.

  • Why does my computer shut down when i try to connect to the internet?

    I have recently found that when i'm trying to connect to the internet, a box is appearing something like This device does not exist, please check your settings and try again. My settings are fine, my wires are connected and i cant find any reason why the connection wouldn't work. I have shut down my computer and this hasn't helped when i have restarted it and now, the screen has gone dark with an scary box saying the computer has to restart itself. No reason is given (or at least i can't remember if there was a reason). My computer is going a bit slower now and is making a noise like an application is opening or the computer is doing something.
    Can anyone help???? I have only had my i baby for a few months. I do download stuff all the time and i have been known to leave my internet connection on for a day at a time. Could this have caused the problem?

    Close all apps in the multi-task window and try again.
    1.Double-click the Home button.
    2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
    3. Preview will fly off the screen.

  • Ever since I got the new update my iPad keeps shutting down apps mid use!

    While using my iPad 2 programs and apps keep shutting down mid use this only started happening after I did the update.... Any suggestions?

    Try closing all apps via the iPad's multitasking bar and then do a soft-reset and see if that improves things.
    To close apps : double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag each app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
    To do a soft-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.

  • Why does my itunes shut down by itself? it has been doing this for the past three days.

    For the past 3 days my iphone has been shutting down itunes by itself. Every time i try to open it it closes. what should i do?

    Hi mcminn_sarah97,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like either the iTunes Store app or Music app are quitting unexpectedly on your iPhone. I recommend restarting the phone first:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, there are a few more steps that you can try.
    If the iTunes Store app is quitting unexpectedly, try the steps in this article next:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    If the Music app is quitting unexpectedly, try this step next:
    Go to Settings > General > Reset, then choose Reset All Settings:  All your preferences and settings are reset.
    Reset iPhone settings
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph7a2a9399b
    If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
