Hi
I got the new iPad 32 gb wifi and 4 g and I am having trouble using the google search engine.
When I press the links of the search results to go to the various web pages nothing happens, it just remains on the search results pages. Sometimes it reverts to the google homepage.
Is anyone having similar issues?
iPad Wi-Fi + 4G
Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
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.

That seems to have fixed it, thank you so much.
I'm having the same problem. After a few minutes' browsing Google search links will do nothing or redirect back to the Google search page until I clear the cache. This is crap, I expected my iPad 3 to be able to handle the cache better then my iPad 1, which never had this problem.
iPad 3 Problems with google search engine?
