With ios 8.3 ipad mini apps sometimes do not respond when touched

a new problem occurred with ios 8.3 ipad mini applications sometimes do not respond when touched Fix it in ios 8.4

If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

IPad mini shut down and not responding after upgrade to iOS7

Hi I bought an iPad mini in France and used it in Indonesia where iPad mini is still not authorized (only previous versions of iPad). I connected to wi-fi there to upgrade to iOS7 and since then the mini iPad is shut down. Cannot turn it on anymore... Apple stores in Indonesia cannot do anything as iPad mini are not sold and authorize yet in the country.
What should I do??
Thanks for the help,
JC

HT4623 My iPad mini's screen is not responding to any touch.

Tonight when I turned on my iPad mini, it booted up like normal but the screen won't do anything when I touch it to unlock it or try to do anything else. The buttons work but I can't do anything else. Could it be because the operating system needs to be updated or could it be another related issue?

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if it works ok 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.

IPad mini slide to unlock not responding

For some reason when the iPad mini is powered off then powered on, the slide to unlock will not immediately respond to my finger until several tries. But when it's on standby mode there is no problem. I already reset the iPad and updated to the latest OS but it is still doing that. Anybody has experience this and know any solution?

Try this:
Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
(no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).
If that doesn't work then backup and then restore the device as new first (to isolate cause of the issue). Then from backup if necessary.

IPad 2 keeps freezing or not responding to touch

I got a refurbished ipad2 and it freezes a lot and sometimes icons don't respond o touch ? Is this normal. I hav had it a day!

1. Close all inactive 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 for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo.

My iPad mini's screen is not responding. But the home and other buttons are still working. It was just working fine yesterday. Is there anything I can do to make it work?

Please, I need help..

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.

Iphone 4 has been very slow and sometimes doesn;t respond to touch, anyone have the same problem,also discolouration just behind the battery icon, could anyone help

since update ios 7 my iphone 4 has been giving me trouble. sometimes will not respond to touch, is very slow when texting, and battery runs down very quickly when not in use and all apps are closed, has anyone had the same problem

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

IPad mini apps not using the internet.

There is an issue with my sister's iPad mini where when she's connected to our home internet, only some of her apps use the internet and others don't. For example, while Safari and My Singing Monsters work (thats pretty well the only two apps that work with the internet), the App store, iTunes, Google, Youtube and every other app that requires internet doesn't. She's connected to our internet (it even says in Wi-fi that she's connected) but for some reason almost all her apps (not every app) acts as if she had no connection. Our internet is fine. It works with every other device in our house so its something to do with the iPad mini itself. Pretty well, she has internet connection but most of the apps act as if she doesn't.

Hello Zoruzero,
The first thing I would suggest checking is ... another Wi-Fi network. Does your sister have the same issue when she is in a different location? (home, work, local coffeehouse?).
Here are the basic troubleshooting steps for Wi-Fi connectivity:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t connect to a Wi-Fi network - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204051
Make sure your router is on and that you're within range.
If you're too far from your router you won't get a signal, so make sure you're within range.
Make sure Wi-Fi is on and that you can see your network.
Tap Setting > Wi-Fi and make sure Wi-Fi is turned on. Tap the name of your Wi-Fi network to join. A blue checkmark beside a network name means you're connected.
Get help if you can't turn on Wi-Fi.
If prompted, type in your Wi-Fi password.
If prompted, enter the password for your Wi-Fi network. Learn what to do if you don’t know your password.
Check all of your cables and connections.
If you still can’t connect to your network or get online, make sure your router is connected to the modem and turned on.
Restart.
For more help, try restarting your device, router, or cable/DSL modem. After each step, check to see if you fixed the issue.
• Restart your iOS device.
• Unplug your router and plug it back in.
• Unplug your cable or DSL modem and plug it back in.
Still can’t connect?
Reset your Network Settings. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, and VPN and APN settings that you’ve used before.
Get more help
If someone else set up your network, ask them for help. If you’re using a network at a company, school, hotel, store, or other free Wi-Fi location, find an employee for assistance.
If you're connected to a Wi-Fi network but you can’t get online, try to use your Wi-Fi network on other devices. If you can’t get online using your other devices, there might be a service outage. Call your cable company or internet provider for help.
Try connecting to a Wi-Fi network in a different location. If your device can connect, you’ll need to get help with your Wi-Fi network. If it can’t connect to any Wi-Fi networks, contact Apple.
Update your Wi-Fi router with the latest firmware and make sure the router supports your Apple product. For more information, contact the manufacturer of your router.
Hope this helps ...

HT1222 Having a problem with iMessage on my iPad mini.

Bought my Ipad from the US & presently using it in Nigeria.I'm having a problem with iMessage on my iPad mini, I've been trying to activate it and I've been receiving an error message saying my password is incorrect which I'm pretty sure isn't because I still buy apps on the iTunes Store with it. What can I do?

Have you looked at some of the 3rd party apps that will do this for you? Some of them are iPodAgent for Windows, copypod, yamipod. Most of them can be found on versiontracker.com, if not try to "google" them. Also, if you have purchased music, you can now import that off your iPod to your new system. Hope this helps.

On iOS 7 on iPad mini how do I reset restrictions?

On iOS 7 on iPad mini how do I reset restrictions? I forgot the password and can not disable them

You have to restore the iPad to factory settings without using the back - if the backup contains the password for restrictions. If the backup does not contain the password, you can use it. But remember that if you use that backup, you turn back the clock on the iPad to the date and time that the backup was created and you lose everything that you have acquired with regard to data and photos since then.
However, when you restore to factory settings, you erase the iPad complete and will have to start all over again. Much of your paid content can be downloaded again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

When video taping on my ipad mini, I sometimes get a yellow rectangular box at the top of the screen after which I can't record when I tap the record button.

I do a lot of video taping on my ipad mini. Sometimes after I stop & try to start recording again, I get a yellow rectangular box at the top of the screen and can't record. If I keep taping the yellow box it disappears & I can video, but I've missed some taping time. I know there were some letters in the box,but I've never written down what they were.

The letters are AE/AF lock. If memory serves me well it's auto exposure/ auto focus lock. Practice with the camera in photo mode. Hold your finger on the item you want to focus on, a rectangle will appear, keep holding your finger on the screen till the rectangle enlarges twice. AE/AF should appear, the item should be in focus and stop going in and out of focus. Tap the screen to get rid of AE/AF.

Installed latest iOS on my iPad mini, it got stuck while restarting after update. It is still in that stage even after 7 hours.

Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
       until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

If your iMessage and FaceTime still hasn't activated by now, I would recommend you use this specific section of the following article as long as you verify you've done all the other troubleshooting from it for this issue:
If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime
If you're using an iPhone, contact your carrier to make sure that you can receive SMS messages.
Contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
