Why is it necessary to reboot my Ipad2 whenever Safari stops responding?, Why is it necessary to reboot my Ipad2 whenever Safari stops responding?

Every few days I need to rebbot my Ipad2 when Safari stops responding. The screen turns gray and it doesn't do anything. It only happens with Safari.

Tap Settings / Safari. Clear the History, Cookies, and Cache.
Restart your iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.

  • Why is my ipad2 really slow after updating to IOS 6.1.2

    Why is my ipad2 really slow after updating to IOS 6.1.2

    Try this.
    Quit all apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Why does Firefox require a reboot after uninstallation?

    Basically, my problem was already asked here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/916857
    But that thread is marked as "solved", when in fact this problem is nowhere near being solved, so I am asking it again in a new, "unsolved" thread.
    In former times Firefox never needed a reboot, and it does not make any sense because no Firefox-related file should be in use at the time of uninstallation. (Forget about updating in my case; I am doing a clean uninstall, and Firefox insists in rebooting anyway.)
    Windows reboots due to software uninstallations are generally only required in the following cases:
    * If files that belong to Windows are being modified. I hope Firefox does no such thing...
    * Part of the software being uninstalled is still running, so that its files are in use. However, I completely closed Firefox and even used the task manager to make sure no firefox-related processes were running.
    Some applications (i.e. Adobe Reader) install fancy "Speed Launchers" that are loaded at boot time and stay resident in memory. Unless these processes are manually killed before uninstallation, they may also be the reason why a reboot is necessary. However, Firefox should not do such a thing.
    To summarize it, the question is: '''Which part of Firefox is running during uninstallation so that removal of the corresponding files is required?
    Generally, I consider this a very bad software behavior, one that I would expect from some commercial software producer who wants to install his speedlaunch or logging stuff on my computer, but not from a free project like this one.
    Firefox Portable does not do this, easily proving that technically it is not necessary. Earlier versions of Firefox also refrained from doing such a thing.
    A piece of software requesting a reboot without good reason is what I consider a bug.

    Aw, c'mon. Writing to the Windows registry never requires a reboot. This is ridiculous.
    And Firefox did not need that bad behavior up to version 8 either. Why now?
    This is not a Windows issue. You cannot alter files in Linux either if they are currently locked. The thing is that there is no sensible reason for any Firefox-related files to be locked at uninstallation time, which is why there should be no problem removing them.
    I do not mean to rant, even though I am disappointed by this new behavior and would like to have it changed, but the least thing I really would like to know is exactly what is causing this. Why have the new versions of Firefox been programmed to require a reboot? Exactly which files need to be removed or changed that cannot be removed/changed during regular uninstallation, so that their removal/change needs to be scheduled for the next restart of Windows?

  • Why iPad2 cannot download any application saying An unknown error has occurred?

    I have been using by ipad2 with latest sw update -ios5- without any problem.
    Just today when I  wanted to update some applications I just received a pop up massage saying an unknown error has occurred.
    I can neither download an application nor make an update.
    I tried couple of times the force quite and reboot. But the problem is still there.
    I will appreciate if someone knows the root cause and suggests a fix
    Many thanks in advance,
    Monfort

    Somehow this issue has been solved by itself.
    I do not really know why this happened and how it is solved.

  • Why I can't open my ipad2?  Can't slide open !

    Why I can't open my ipad2?  Can't slide open !

    Perhaps the touch screen is malfunctioning. Is your finger very cold? Is the iPad very cold?
    Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo. It is safe to do, there should be no content loss. It is the same as rebooting your computer.

  • TS1398 Why does my iPad2 not display the WiFi icon?

    Why does my iPad2 not display the WiFi icon? I have implemented ALL of the troubleshooting tips, but my WiFi icon is still missing, and it will NOT recognize the internet connection that I know to work on my computer and iPhone.

    Try the following:
    1. Reset the AirPlay devices
    2. Reboot the router
    3. Reboot the iPad
    Note: The AirPlay icon is now in the Control Center

  • Since I've updated the software on my ipad2 my apps won't install, why?

    I've recently updated the software of my ipad2 to ois5.1.1 and since I've done it I can't install apps. They appear on my home screen but just say waiting!!!! Why is this???

    Check iTunes and see if you have a pending or stalled download in there. If you do, finish that download or delete it if you can. If you can't finish or delete the download on the iPad, do it in iTunes on your computer and then sync the iPad. Then go back to the apps and see if they will download.
    If that doesn't work or if that was not the problem, go to Settings>Store >Apple ID, tap your ID and sign out. Then reboot the iPad, 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.
    Then go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if the apps will update.

  • I cannot use my ipad2 because the touch screen doesn't work at all. First I cannot unlock it or do anything in the screen!!!! Why?

    I cannot use my ipad2 because the touch screen doesn't work at all. First I cannot unlock it or do anything in the screen!!!! Why?

    Have you tried a reset To see if that fixes it ? 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.

  • Movie made with iPad2 does not sync from PC to iPad2. Why?

    Hi All,
    I take my iPad2 and I make a 20 second movie in HD quality. I connect it to my Windows PC and with Windows Explorer I go to my iPad, locate the movie file and copy it to my desktop.
    Then, I pick it up from my desktop, drag it to iTunes and drop it on my still connected iPad. This would effectively transfer the video to 'Videos' on the iPad as opposed to the photo album.
    iTunes reports that the file cannot be sync'ed because my iPad2 is not capable of playing the file.
    WT*?????? This video is created by my iPad2. Surely I must be able to play it back?
    Can anyone clarify why this is?
    With regards to the why of this procedure: this relates to making videos myself and wanting to watch them on my iPad. There are loads of posts about that, but most of them relate to external videos being sync'ed to the pad. I am experiencing this problem straight with iPad movies themself.
    BTW: In the previous version of iTunes (I just upgraded to 10.5) this was no problem at all. Apple, please fix this.

    SOLVED.
    Some people are só quick to reply, even offline.
    iTunes 10.5 no longer has Quicktime on board and therefor iTunes *thinks* that your iPad can no longer play it's own video's.
    Solution: install Quicktime, reboot (just to be sure) and copy your movie files to your pad. Works like a charm, but isn't that error message from iTunes just a little bit incorrect?

  • HT3228 Why would my email account on ipad2 3G be frozen since yesterday?

    Why would email screen on ipad2 3G be frozen?

    We could guess for days and never know why it is frozen. You would have a much better idea than we would have. You use the device, we don't. It's possible that it froze trying to open an attachment, you could have a corrupt email, you might have a very large attachment that the mail app can't load ....
    Try some troubleshooting steps.
    Quit the mail app 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.
    Or this might work as well. 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.

  • I download Fruit Ninja but it failed bec of it's MB but I was billed so why would I pay such game when it was not successfully downloaded in my ipad2? If I cud install it then I shall pay the thing.

    I download Fruit Ninja but it failed bec of it's MB but I was billed so why would I pay such game when it was not successfully downloaded in my ipad2? If I cud install it then I shall pay the thing.

    You paid for it because you bought it, there is nothing stopping you from now downloading it. If it is over 20 meg in size then you either need to switch to a wifi network on your iPad (there is a 20 meg limit per file over 3G), or try downloading it on your computer and then either sync it across to the iPad or drag-and-drop it from the Apps library in iTunes over and onto your iPad 'device'.
    If you can connect the iPad to wifi then re-try downloading it (re-downloading) - f it currently shows as 'waiting' on the screen then try a reset and see if it resumes downloading after the iPad has restarted ? 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.

  • Safari crashes regularly on iPad2, any clue why?

    Does anybody know why Safari crashes from time to time on iPad2? Any solutions for the problem?

    You could see if the following help.
    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History) - on iOS 5 it's Clear Cookies And Data
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a 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.
