Why does my iPad randomly quit apps

Happens daily, thought it was doing it to let me no battery getting low but it still happens when on charge and full battery

You may want to try this:
1. Backup iPad
2. Setup iPad as new (Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings)
3. Test iPad thoroughly
4. If everything is fine, restore backup to iPad

  • My ipad randomly quits apps

    My iPad randomly stops working and shuts down an app returning to the home screen.  Any fixes?

    Try this:
    1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
    2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Why does my ipad randomly drop out of wi-fi?

    My new ipad 4 (the retina one) keeps dropping out of my home wi-fi network. Randomly, when playing music or just browsing it drops out and I have to go onto settings to tap on the network.
    Thanks in advance. :)

    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 does my iPad synch iPhone Apps through Cloud Backup Sync?

    So I'm having an issue with my iPad 3 syncing iphone apps. It usually happens everytime I put the iPad on the charger and I'm wondering why this started happening, as I don't remember checking or unchecking anything to sync apps (iphone apps?) onto my iPad. I don't want or need my iPad to sync older apps, especially iphone apps in general.
    Can anyone tell me where I can manage this or get my iPad to stop downloading the apps onto my iPad?

    I can't update apps via the ipad alone because it doesn't have enough space for the update, and I can't update via the laptop without erasing everything in the process WHICH it does on it's own.

    There lies the possible root of the problem. Make sure you keep enough available space for the ipad to update and function properly.

  • Why does my ipad keep quitting?

    My ipad2 keeps quitting applications after about 40 seconds, I've tried doing a hard reboot. I've also taken the ipad back to new set up, however it still continues to quit. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

    Try this  - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • Why does the iPad randomly shut down?

    Why do both of my iPads shut down randomly?

    I'm not sure. I didn't buy it, I won it in a contest at work and I don't have any of the reciepts or anything for it.

  • HT204053 why does my ipad "Apple Store" app, not recognize me when i try to log in using my apple id?  i use only one apple id for both store and iCloud and know i am keying correctly.  hmmm.

    we use a pc to hold all of our media but are two ppl in the household.  we both log into itunes and apple store using our own passwords.  recently on my ipad i was no longer able to upgrade/log in the apple store because when it asks for my password it prompts for my partners password and it doesn't recognize me.  also, oddly, my partner added an app that i also want to add on his ipad.  when i attempted to add that app using my apple id log in it thinks i'm him and prompts for his password on my ipad therefore leaving me no way to have that app.  how do i get my app store to function again (recognize me) and how can we finally figure out how to separate the media so i don't get his apps on my devices and mine on his (and then not be able to access them b/c we don't share passwords)?  please help.

    Open the App Store app, go to the Featured pane, swipe to the bottom, tap the Apple ID and sign out. Tap again and sign in with the Apple ID of your choosing.

  • Why does my iPad open the app store whenever an add comes up when I'm on the internet?

    When I'm on my iPad and on the internet whenever a game app add comes up on the side it forcibly takes me to the app store to download the app without me even touching it. I have tried different browsers and they all do it.

    That's because the ad contains JavaScript which activates a URL. That URL causes the App Store to open.
    Avoid those sites which cause this. Complain to their webmasters.
    Using "Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies and Data" may help.

  • Why does my iPad randomly shut down and then restart?

    This has only happened since the newest iOS update. It has also had problems with the wifi happening since the last 6 level update: randomly drops wifi signal etc.
    What can I do? I've tried backing up and doing a factory restore, the problem doesn't resolve.

    I'm not sure. I didn't buy it, I won it in a contest at work and I don't have any of the reciepts or anything for it.

  • Why does my iPad keypad Randomly capitalize words

    Why does my iPad randomly capitalize words especially when playing scrabble

    I Have the same problem....immediately after I upgraded my ipad software, the scrabble keyboard for scrabble chat changed. Each time the space bar is tapped the next letter is in caps...can this be fixed? It's not the game cuz I have the same game on android & it's not affected.

  • Why does my ipad keep losing connection and kicking me out of apps?

    Why does my ipad keep dropping apps while I am using them like facebook and facetime. It just disconnects and goes to the home screen. Very frustrating!

    I have a MacBookPro...my wife has iPad2...and I do nothing with her iPad...
    let me ask a dumb question reading here.  She plays a lot of Scrabble or word games...goes on Facebook, and has been complaining to me about the games crashing, bringing her sometimes back to the home page. 
    We followed one piece of advice given here...to hold the start and home buttons simultaneously and reboot.  This may work...we'll see.
    But...on the advice concerning the apps.  When she holds down an App...they vibrate or shake, which I guess is a way to move an app about...drag it.  Saw no minus sign.  I guess we assumed the app was "closed" sitting dormant on the home screen...and so I know or understand (she not so computer literate), an app sitting on the homescreen is not necessarily closed?  Hitting home and bringing the desktop back up, is not necessarily closing out of the app?
    thanks...

  • HT4108 Why does an iPad (1st gen) and the Photos app using VGA adapter

    Why does an iPad (1st gen) using iOS 5.1 and the Photos app not send a single photo to a projector while a slideshow is sent photo by photo?

    I am not 100% sure, but i believe the iPad only does mirroring when connecting with AppleTV. AV cables will output audio and video out the bottom of the iPad (30-pin connector) to a TV/monitor, but the iPad screen itself will only show video controls (play/pause, FF, RW, Done, Progression bar).  If your cables say otherwise I am interested to know what brand they are and where you got them. If you are not getting any video at all the cables are probably not Apple approved and dont have the special chip in the 30-pin connector that allows for video transition.
