Q: Ipad air low memory crash

I came to this forum to see if other ipad air owners are experiencing same problem with low memory crashing as I do but seems like I'm one of the few people have this. So far I have 10 low memory crash reports. I also have about 30 more crash reports but it's from various apps. I got my ipad air on the launch day, second in line, here in California. Maybe I just have a defective one, I don't know. If you have same issues, please reply so I can determine if I should return it or just live with it. Closing apps every day is a hassle. I wish Apple just put in extra gig of ram. Overall, I am extremely happy with my ipad. There are so many good this things to mention about this ipad but this is wrong thread to do that.

iOS 7.0.3

    I have numerous "low memory" instances/crashes on my iPhone 5 (not the S) running iOS 7. I also have an iPad mini & iPad mini Retina on iOS 7 with various "low memory" instances/crashes there as well. I don't believe I have any "low memory" instances on my iOS 6 devices (2 iPhone 4's, an iPad 3rd Gen & an iPad 4th Gen) but I'll have to check later on. Last time I checked, their logs were clear (at least no "low memory" instances that I can recall).

    This should prove my point to the other users, it has nothing to do with the 64bit, or the 1gb of RAM. It just has to do with ios 7 and it will be fixed by apple through an update... I feel like i've said this before.....

    i have a good feeling that full release 7.1 will be the solution to this long running drama...

    "yes i do open 20 apps and never close them and i do max out my browser tabs while playing pandora, no crashes"

     

    Again, since you are not getting it: the fact that *you* don't close them does NOT mean that they are open, the O.S. closes them whenever it runs out of free memory (which happens very soon and very often on iOS devices since they ALL have very little RAM). Also, assuming that your iOS7 device/browser is not crashing, those "maxed out tabs" are NOT loaded, they are just "placeholders" much like the apps listed in the multitasking list, they will be reloaded when you go back to them and you will lose whatever you may have inputted in those sites, the zoom level and the position in the page...

     

    Since everything you have been writing here is "factually incorrect" (let's put it this way...) you have zero authoritativeness and zero credibility when you say that you have no error logs and no crashes.

     

     

    Frankly, I am not even sure you have any iOS device at all...

     

    To be fair, you are not the only one here who has no idea at all about how iOS works. You are just the most annoying poster on the thread.

    Thanks GordyUK for your report. It is a good news.

    Please, let me ask you one more thing: about soft reboot (black screen with apple logo)? did you experience the soft reboot before the beta version? and after?

    thank you so mych, bye

    That's excellent news. Can't wait to not crash all the time! Did you happen to spend any time with iTunes yet with the latest beta?

    You don't seem to understand that I am not claiming everything is active when it is closed, I'm telling you I am using my system as much as possible, no one could use this iphone harder then I am. It does not crash, others open 1 tab in safari, and their system crashes just from opening safari. That has nothing to do with hardware. Your device is not broken, there is no point to this thread, I explained this in my previous posts, do you just not want to listen or can you not comprehend?

     

     

     

    When apple releases the update to lessen all your " crashes " remember you heard it here first, and next time remember to listen more and type less.

    "You don't seem to understand that I am not claiming everything is active"

     

    You don't seem to understand what you yourself are writing:

     

    - "I can have literally 50 apps open and 20 browser tabs still no lag or crash."
    -  "i can have maxed out tabs in safari and i can have 20 apps running at the same time, 0 crashes."

     

    are both pretty clear.

     

    Take your own advice: listen more and type less.

    Hi prest86

     

    I probably had one or two soft reboots per week, although many more in 7.0 4

    I won't ever stop because I know it bothers you so much and I like to see you get so involved, it's cute.

     

    I'll say it again just because I know it bothers you, I can have every app open and I can open every tab at the same time and it has not crashed 1 time. Get over it.

     

    I don't care if the tabs remain active or not when I am not looking at them, You are getting too caught up with specifics, my point is I push my device to the max, i have not been easy on it. I do not get crashes.

     

    The crashes will become less and less over time for those who are experiencing them. Do not worry.

    hi Vocal-Voodo

     

    if that question was for me, i have been in iTunes on my iOS devices and downloaded updates (on both iPhone 5s & iPad Air). All  seems to be working ok. No download/purchase issues. I haven't used iTunes on my laptop very much other than to authorise the developer upgrade, but i did buy an app while on my laptop and that worked and seamlessly appeared on both iOS devices too, so i have no issue or complaint with this.

     

    Do bear in mind i'm in the UK so we don't have any of the new features like iTunes Radio yet

    lelesmurf,

     

    Apple support has had me do that, in my experience it did not help but good luck to you.  I should have an answer from the apple engineers today.

    And I'll say it again just because I think it may bother you:


    1. the limited RAM in iOS devices (ALL of them) does NOT allow (even without iOS7's memory management flaws/bugs) keeping in the RAM
    "maxed out tabs", let alone 20 apps.

     

    2. iOS does NOT have real multitasking. The fact that you may see 20 apps shown in the multitasking list ONLY means that those are your most recent opened apps NOT that they actually open right now nor that they are all running and doing things (which, again, they CANNOT DO as iOS isn't a real multitasking mobile operating system).

     

    3. the fact that *you* don't close apps does NOT mean that they are open, the O.S. closes them whenever it runs out of free memory (which happens very soon and very often on iOS devices since they ALL have very little RAM). Also, assuming that your iOS7 device/browser is not crashing, those "maxed out tabs" are NOT loaded, they are just "placeholders" much like the apps listed in the multitasking list, they will be reloaded when you go back to them and you will lose whatever you may have inputted in those sites, the zoom level and the position in the page.

     

     

     

    What you are writing is pure, unadulterated B.S. which is TECHNICALLY *IMPOSSIBLE* TO BE TRUE and is, therefore, NOT TRUE. You are the very definiton of troll.
