You know ... you shouldn't be "jumping to unfounded conclusions" ... because a lot of other users here on this forum are getting good results in solving their issues. Instead of concluding you can't do anything and blaming Apple, you should follow the lead of other users and buckle down to finding the solution that works for you. AND NOTE ... Apple didn't change a thing and these people are having good results after their initial problems!

Other users are able to fix their problems without Apple changing a thing with iOS 8.0.2!

My IPOD Touch 5G is Crashing also! since IOS 8 update - come on Apple help us out! Please!

Mine is still crashing in my Ipod touch 5G with IOS 8

Okay I have Ipod touch 5G with IOS 8.0.2 and having major issues with crashing apps, mainly Facebook slow to load, crashes. Also my copy and paste keeps getting stuck on Copy - whatever I copy stays in there even after trying to copy something new. I tried rebooting - fixed the copy issue only temporarily. Apps still slow and crashing. Plenty of space left 13 GB clear. This all has happened since the IOS 8 update, no problems prior at all. Even my keyboard types sluggish at times, never had that before. What do you suggest? I am reading all over the internet that IOS 8 is the problem everyone having trouble. My relatives with IPHONE are having same issues.

Apple is NOT here on these forums. It doesn't comment here or respond here ... because these forums are EXCLUSIVELY "users helping other users" and nothing more. This forum is NOT Apple Tech Support. If you wish to talk to Apple, then you need to go to ...

On the other hand, if you want to hear how other users have solved their issues, you can engage them here on this forum.

I don't know if you realize it or not, but you're in the iPad forum ... and you said you have an iPod. Maybe that was a typo. If that is correct, there is a forum for iPod ...

iPod

Sorry, I thought this was Ipod forum - can't delete these as far as I can tell?? is there a way? I know this is a forum, and not Apple, but I have received Help from Forum members in the past - moreso than from Apple I must say, so that is why I posted my problem. I will repost on IPOD Forum.

Because of all the unhappy users, I have not done the upgrade. That to ask (in response to your post Oct 6, 2014 10:10 AM) If I restore my iPad2 to "new" [ I have IOS 7.1.2 ] and then perform an upgrade to 8.0.2 on my "new" iPad2, will I be able to restore my full backup from iTunes & will it include my 7.1.2 OS? In case I do encounter difficulties with a "new" 8.0.2 "baseline"?

It's really too bad. I mentioned that this could be the 'beginning of the end' for Apple's dominance in the marketplace while at the store trying to get some help with this. They had a blank stare and was clearly more pre-occupied with making sales than helping loyal customers. By the way, does anyone else think this Star Traveler drank a little too much of the Kool Aid?... A bit too militant with the Forum Police Officer comments...

And a bit like a stuck record at times. Flying the flag for Apple is very laudable but I think he needs to remove the blinkers. 😁

How do I this?
