Why does my I Pad air go back to apps page

When I am using the safari portion or sometimes typing an email, all of a sudden it goes back to the apps page,right out of the blue..I am not hitting anything on the sides, it just does this and it is happening more frequently.. Help!

(A) Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Try reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings for Wi-Fi, FaceTime, Message, Home Sharing will be reset

  • Why does my I pad crash when in different apps.?

    No matter what app I an in my iPad crashes.  Please let me know why...

    Try resetting: Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
    If that does not work, try downloading any new free or paid app from the App Store and see if your other apps work.

  • HT4623 Why does my iPad keep bumping me off the app I am on.  Have to keep going back in over and over.

    Why does my mini pad keep bumping me off apps and I have to completely go back in.?

    App instability can usually be remedied by quitting all apps (Double tap the Home button and swipe the app preview page up)
    then
    Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)

  • Why does my I-pad film in flash format...?

    Why does my I-pad film in flash format when I can't play it back after uploading it to a site? Design flaw to get me to spend more money...

    It is not that your iPad is recording in flash format, maybe it is because the website you uploaded the video to converted it to flash format in order for other people to view it.

  • Why does my iPhone sync hang at 'backing up'?

    Why does my iPhone sync hang at 'backing up'?

    Did iTunes ever create a successful backup during a sync? If yes it should be listed there.
    Alternativly you can make sure that the iphone backup folder is empty and try again to sync. The folder is located here:
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

  • Why does my i-pad 2 take ages to shut down

    why does my i-pad 2 take ages to shut down

    Could you be more specific on what you mean by "ages"? It should be a matter of seconds... but for that matter, the iPad rarely needs to be shut down. Personally, I only do it when about to board an airplane.

  • Why does it take so long to back up whilst im updating from 4.3.5 to 5.0?

    Why does it take so long to back up whilst im updating from 4.3.5 to 5.0?
    its been on for ages and its not even a quarter of the way backed up!

    The Brave New World of AC wireless networking.. where the reality falls far short of the hype.
    Unfortunately in an actual transfer situation, the signal to noise of wireless (RSSI figure drops dramatically), It simply uses AC as a link speed but speed is always renegotiated during an actual file transfer.. to some sustainable level. I suspect that level is not AC wireless but N.
    It does matter if you run older devices.. nothing with a or b or g wireless should be running in your house. Even n wireless may cause issues.. try turning everything else off and see if you get speed lift.
    As far as the time required for a clean up, is this a first backup as they always take a significantly longer time. Once you are doing regular incrementals the time is usually very short.

    I do not really know but 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].

  • Why does my image not reach the edges of the page when printed, but appears fine as pdf?

    Why does my image not reach the edges of the page when printed, but appears fine as pdf?

    Check a printable area of your printer.
    Make a (grey) rectangle that is larger than the paper size. Print it,
    you'll get a message that some cropping will occur, that's okay. Then take a
    ruler and measure the dimensions of the rectangle printed on the paper or
    the white borders around the printed rectangle.

  • Why does it take so long to load a web page on my iPad

    Why does it take so long to load a web page on my new ipad wifi

    This is probably not a problem with the iPad, but with the wi-fi. If your internet connection and/or wi-fi speeds are slow, then loading web pages will be slow. If I was you, I would research different kinds of wireless routers to find the fastest one in your price range, and also research different kinds of modems.

  • Why does f12(preview in browser mode) not render the page correctly?

    Why does f12(preview in browser mode) not render the page correctly? Instead when i go to the main or original file, it renders properly? It is drriving me nuts! HAHA! Can anyone help? mainly CSS problem, div overlapping but when viewing from original file on browser not through F12, it renders correctly. CS5.5 DW. Thanks!

    just that one of it is a f12 (preview in browser) while the other one is going to the directory and clicking the html page by itself.
    F12 is simply a hot key that launches your browser.
    The only thing I can think of to explain this is that you have a local site folder someplace in addition to a testing server site.
    When you hit preview, your testing server on the localhost/ is being called up in the browser.
    When you open the HTML page directly, you're seeing the local site file with unparsed data.
    Try disabling your Testing Server in Sites > Manage sites > Edit...
