Q: Has any of iOS 5 iPad users experienced slow safari browser, frequent crashes and slow keyboard response when posting something online?

i have the same problem after update IOS 5. Is there a chance to rollback IOS 5?

I found this bug on my iphone4 with ios5 too. The keyboard is extremely slow. Any suggestions?

I'm having the same problems since installing ios 5 on my 1st. Gen. ipad. I am ready to go back to previous version. Really, ios 5 is no improvement or benefit for me. I sure hope Apple comes up with a fix or a way to restore 4.?? soon.

Just to make sure this doesn't become only an iPad1 discussion, let me say my iPad2 does the exact same thing. It won't hold Safari. By that I mean, Safari appears to open, but then crashes at any activity. It does this every time and has done it from iOS5 day one.  Not before.  It's really silly for Apple not to respond since it obviously is a widespread problerm on one of the apps at the heart of the iPad.

Yrs, my iPad is dead slow, unresponsive and crashes at the slightest whim.

I hope apple does an update. If they are stalling in hopes people will buy into ipad2

They may regret the decision. There's lots of good competition out there apple!

Please fix thisrealeased too soon version!   Bugs like this I'd expect from MS not apple.

Let me add my voice to this problem: the crashes are frequent and annoying.

Add me to the list. Slower keyboard response, periodic crashes, and really annoying.

I agree 100%. i'm ready to go back to ios4.5. Let me just say that someone in the forum advised to turn off all icloud settings and this has helped. Ios 5 is still not a big deal for me because Safari crashes and keyboard response can be very slow. Apple had better,and probably come up with a fix. I've had good experiences with Apple over 25 years.

Slow Safari and slow calendar since I upgraded to iOS5.

Everything is slow on my iPad 1 since I updated. Keyboard response is especially annoying.

ios5 does nothing for me. iPad is completely unstable and crashes all the time in Safari and frequenly in other apps. I hate iOS5.

I've not experienced this slowing on any apps.  In fact, with my iPad2 and iOS 5, Safari is about 50% faster than under iOS 4.5.  I have most iCloud settings OFF with the exception of Photostream and Find my iPad.

iCloud seems to be a prime suspect with a lot of problems surrounding iOS 5.  Much of iCloud is turned on by default when it is set up, so users should check those settings ASAP and turn them off to see if performance improves.

Yeah, I tried that but it didn't help. However, for whatever reason, Safari has been behaving for me for the last two days. I hate to even say that because I don't want to jinx it.

And doesn't that theory/fix/workaround really bite then because iCloud is supposed to be one of the new great features of the iOS? What good does having the feature available if you can't use it or if it causes problems?

Safari keeps crashing for me too.
