iPad crashes regularly

That happens with my iPod touch, and iPad too. All you have to do is restart it by clicking the home button and lock button at the same time. Hope this helps! Lizzymeow123

Like many people, I am also extremely frustrated at Apple for their apparent ambivalence to this issue. Since moving to IOS5 on my ipad1 I have had to live with intermittent nd frequent crashing on all aps. Not only is this annoying and frustrating it has also meant that I use the iPad alot less. I have followed all the advice one the blogs and nothing works for me. I constantly reset the iPad, I have removed almost every app, taken off all the photos and movies I carried just in case and I have restored the iPad twice. But still the iPad crashes when it feels like it. And it can't be down to rogue apps, the most frequent crashes come in Safari!

I am so pi$$ed at Apple and wonder why they have not either acknowledged the problem or given any indication they plan to fix it.

This is exactly what my ipad1 has been doing after the IOS5 was installed. I am relieved it isn't just something I am doing and hopefully they can resolve this problem! It is driving me crazy how often it crashes!

Well...I posted this same information related to crashes a few months ago. I have tried all the tips with no success. It seems to mostly effect iPad 1. Interestingly enough my biggest problem is with Safari, in fact when I opened up the login in screen for this "Apple" forum, it crashed again. Apple if you are reading this please fix your problem. How this is handled will determine what company I buy from in the future.

Apparently Apple has been so busy working on the new Ipad that they have totally neglected those of us with the Ipad 1. Well I guess it will make a good paperweight, or my photo ap still works without crashing, guess I can turn it into a desktop digital photo frame. Nice Apple!😠

I've been experiencing the same issues on my iPad 2 (16GB) since I first got it (almost 9 months). Over that period I've noticed that the random crashes tend to happen at a time when apple is about to release the next versions of the OS. Perhaps it has something to do with apples servers becoming busy/overloaded and then somehow interfering with safari (or some other process that uses the internet)?

We have the 'same' iPads and reading your comments would be like writing my own, so I replied to you instead!

I am at a loss what to do so am here looking for answers, yet the iPad keeps crashing, even here, which is a double bind as I have to keep signing in. So I concure with the loss of ease of use and it is slowly becoming a worth issuer.

I was considering updating my pad, yet I am wondering if I should remain a die hard mac man or look a Samsung the swear word. I mean if I am getting PC performance why not get one and save money!

On the other hand if the care was lavished on that already purchased, like in days past and the OS glid, why change!

I draw on my pad and when it has crashed during a sketch it is worthy of expletive invention. Certainly it needs sorting out and I hope someone is listerning in the core of the apple world!

Meanwhile any advise is welcome!

Just to add, now having been reading quite a few mails here. There is a calculation called the Monticello Carlo whereby one chucks a load of markers at a square and quarter circle and determines regularity over patern size, ergo sampling.

See pi.

The sample I have taken seems to create a patern which has IOS5 continually sighted as the protagonist.

Given that everyone's pad will work faultlessly without apps on, one suspects some apps will upset the apple cart, yet in the main most will not. There are not enough apps upsetting the cart for it just to be that. Yet IOS5 seems to me to have a certain correlation with the apps already loaded. In as much as they worked better before IOS5.

Actually the problem could be quite complex, somewhere between the note book and the iPad. A sort of internal dilemma apple has created by keeping both afloat.

My iPad was being superseded while I left the store with it, and withing two years pad two had appeared at a nominal price diffrence, and so the stone rolls!

Actulally I would like apple to fix this crashing problem without downloading it to me. I have enough downloaded administration from companies without my computer provider doing it as well. While I expect to do a reasonable amount!

I am not sure apple can just leave this to crowd-fixing. They need to get on to and tell us what it is, and fix it.

My pad one is not reasonably old yet and I am sure I expect at least five to six years out of it as a consumer product!

Just thought I would add these thoughts!
