Keep getting kicked out of my iPad 2 apps back to the home screen!

When using my iPad 2 no matter what app I'm using it will just kick me back to the home screen! Sometimes, right away sometimes after 5 to 10 minutes! Please help. If it matters I bought it boxing day.

Try all of these basic steps and see if any of them help at all.
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.
Close all apps and restart. 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. Restart the iPad.
For Safari specifically ..... 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.

When I'm working on another window, it will kick me back to the home screen

when I'm working on another window, it will kick me back to the home screen every 15 seconds or so. It's like when it check email or something, it goes to the home screen.

This problem is often caused by "Google Drive." If it's installed, I suggest you remove it according to the developer'sinstructions. You may need to boot in safe mode to do so. Back up all data before making any changes.
If you use Google Drive and don't want to remove it, then try deselecting the option in its preferences to show a status icon. According to reports, that may be enough to stop the Finder from crashing.

TS3219 When on iTunes on my first generation iPad it defaults back to the home screen with no warning

When trying to view the film category in iTunes my iPad defaults back to the home screen so I can't buy a film or even view products. Why is this happening ? Is there anything I can do?? My iPad is using iOS 5 and it is upto date as it is a first generation iPad. Please help!!!
Thanks

This is most often the result of iOS closing apps when it experiences a low-memory situation. The original iPad has very limited RAM by todays standards for Apps. If you have apps open, be sure to close them to preserve your RAM for apps you actually want running.
To do so, double-tap the home button, then press and hold an app icon until they start to shake. You can close apps in the multi-tasking tab by tapping the little circle that appears.Be sure you don't do this on the main home screens because tapping the X will delete apps from your device rather than close them.

My email has frozen on iPhone 4s and will not load just kicks me back to the home screen, any ideas?

my email froze yesterday now every time i open the app it gives me a blank screen and then after a fe secs kick me out back to the home screen. i have tried restarting, turning on and off, restoring, deleting account and adding it back on and changing my password but nothing has work, any ideas?

While shut down and restart probably doesn't work, see if you can remember the last email that you were reading. If it had a moticon or large attachment, try going your desktop and moving that email to a deleted folder. Then go back to your email on your iphone it should be working. That worked for me. I then went back to my desktop and moved the email in question back into my inbox.

Why does my IPad 2 suddenly cause my ITunes to crash when i try and sync ?

Strange question but suddenly plugging in my IPad 2 causes my ITunes to stop
I tried the usual fixes -reinstalling ITunes, resetting the IPad, nothing made any difference.
I also have the bug that keeps telling me 'my password has been entered incorrectly too many times" every time ITunes starts and even logging out of ITunes didnt seem to fix this.
I have the most recent software on both the PC and the IPad 2 and I didnt change anything - all of a sudden it stopped working !
Any help would be much apprecaited. I am away for several months to a warm place and I sort of need my travel media.
I just want to watch the movies I already paid for here, I didnt change any settings or features that I ama ware of and I am terrified to erase my IPad since if I do - and I still cant connect I have nothing for several months
Regards

Do a FACTORY RESTORE...not from your back...
Make sure you DON'T allow iTunes to back-up your Ipad before this as it will Replace your back up with the funcky New app arrangement and soo on..
Now after the Factory restore, restart iTunes and do a restore from the Back-p. AGAIN don't let iTunes do a back-up prior to this...

When I stream videos from my laptop onto my Apple TV via my iPad 2 using the Air Video app/server the video plays great however when I pause the video the Apple TV reverts back to the home screen within a few seconds and then when I want to restart watching the video I have to re-buffer the video. Is there any way I can stop the Apple TV from reverting back to the home screen when I pause the video I’m watching?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Contact the developer of the Air Video app.

TS3274 Can't open "About" in the General function; after a nano second it defaults back to the home screen;

How do I access the "About" function?
What causes my iPad to default back to the home screen without allowing access to the "About" function?

Here are a couple of things to try.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
You can also try quitting the settings app 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.
If neither of those things help, you may have to restore the iPad in order to get the settings app to function properly again.

Can anyone help me? Why does my ipad kick me out of FB? Sometimes to the 'settings' page and sometimes to the desk top? I would like to know why this happens and what I can check or change to make it stop. I have 50.8 GB of capacity available; it is version IOS 5.1.1; model MC497LL. It is WIFI and internet via AT&T? Can anyone give me some clues on what to do; or change in settings??? Thank you very much!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

TS3274 Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner

Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner ?

Hi Edwardtracey,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
It sounds like you have a cellular data plan and there is no service where you currently are.
The article below will explain this feature and how to turn the setting on/off.
The article has more details and screenshots, but I've quoted highlights below for you:
iOS: About the Cellular Data setting
Cellular data is used for data communication in cellular networks. It does not affect your ability to make or receive phone calls or to use Wi-Fi networks for Internet connectivity. If you turn off cellular data, you will be unable to:
See the cellular data icons in the status bar (for example, LTE or 3G).
Send or receive MMS messages. However, you can still send and receive SMS and iMessages if you're connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Retrieve or listen to new Visual Voicemail messages. To retrieve these messages, enable Cellular Data.
Use Personal Hotspot.
You can adjust this setting by going to:
iPad: Settings > Cellular
Additional Information
You can also enable or disable cellular data for certain iOS features from this setting:
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!
