Q: IPAD2 very slow after IOS 8 upgrade

After IOS 8 upgrade many aplications ( Safari, Facebook, etc) load  very, very slow (comparing with 7 version) , with a significant delay of more than 10 seconds...

 

Who can I solve this problem? Any workaround?

 

PD

 

Apple should better test the software before delivering.

 

Thanks.

iPad 2

    For everyone else:

     

    On my iPad 2, have already:

    1) Soft reset (kept contents)

    2) Hard reset (lost contents)

    3) Rebooted numerous times

    4) Used the device with no apps installed on it

    5) Turned off all the keyboard settings such as auto-correct etc

     

    All of these still have the same result:

    1) Slow opening, switching apps

    2) Crashing of Safari

    3) Reloading of almost every tab when switching back and form

    4) Keyboard extremely sluggish and slow

     

    If you have a device, it's really probably not worth resetting it since chances are you'll just waste your time and end up with the same result. A little bit of degradation is acceptable when running a newer OS on older hardware but surely no one would expect such a poor release.

    What were you told when you took your iPad to the Apple store?

    It's VERY OBVIOUS that some posters here don't know what this forum is for. Their posts keep getting deleted! ... LOL ...

     

    They obviously don't know that this forum is set up for "users helping other users" ... meaning that some users post about a problem they want solved and other users help them with SOLUTIONS (but not "complaints"). You don't advertise other brands here, you don't speculate about Apple's motives and you don't go badmouthing people, products or companies.

     

    This forum is about "users helping other users" ... so keep it that way!

    Yeah, I think this is where I get off this bus.  I absolutely agree this is not what this forum is about.  I think everybody would have been happier engaging Apple more constructively - in ways that might lead to bug tickets, since that will hopefully solve the problem and reduce the chances this will happen again.

    I just reply here to express my anger about the iOS8 update!!!! It made my iPad2 a worthless piece of junk.I  am sure Apple is monitoring the discussion. So, expressing concerns is not a bad thing. Maybe an official reply about their "beautifully designed" software is in order now after much steam was released.

    So, this forum is to help each other, right? If so, can someone now summarize the 100s of replies and say what to do about it?

    1. No Apple do not monitor these forums. Try https://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

     

    2. Apple never give any 'Official Replies' here, especially since it only comes from a minuscule % of 1% of the tens of millions of users out there in the real world.

     

    3. Can someone summerize? Why don't you do it. We are all just users like yourself.

     

    Cheers

    Ummm ... serge1162 ... did you bother reading the "Terms of Use" or do you just like getting all your posts removed? If you keep that up, you just won't be able to even post here!

    You've posted this several times but you're not going to get anywhere.  There is a cadre of posters that aren't interested in solutions.  They simply want to whine.

    ok thanks for your support David. I'll post somewhere else, dont worry.

     

    BTW a summary of technical solutions allowing IPAD2 users to use their IPAD 2 with IOS8 would be welcome.

    Why not do that ?

    I actually prefer just one solution, although I know others have come up with a variety. I call my solution "nuking your iPad" ... :-) ... and that's to basically put it back to a factory default setting, which makes it pristine and "new" (in a manner of speaking).

     

    And I also prefer that because it will minimize the amount of time one puts into a solution. And in addition, it will give one a clue as to whether they may need a hardware check. If the hardware is okay, then the reset to factory default will also expose a potential bugs in the system and they can be reported as coming from a pristine system, without any of your data on it.

     

    All of the above makes "nuking your iPad" the best bet!

    I have the same problem. The iOS 8.0 upgrade is awful. My iPad is slower and I am unable to update/ upload spreadsheets in Quickoffice. Now I have to have two programs to do the work normally done with one. Google Sheets & Docs is not an improvement over Quickoffice. Apple needs to allow a restore to iOS 7.
