Q: Problems After update to iOS 8 on ipad 2

You are on Apple Kool Aid Mac, if you think there are only a few having these problems. Perhaps you don't watch the national news!

Nope.

Wish I could help you.  I think that reguardless, Apple needs to find a real fix and do an update....!

He can't post links about some mass disaster (as some have said) regarding his particular problem. That's the trouble with someone who has a tech support problem - at times - just because they have the problem, they automatically think that everyone else who has the device they have are having the same problem ... LOL ...

It's like the 9 TOTAL "bending iPhones" out of the 10 MILLION sold ... if this guy had one of those, he would have been posting here that all 10 MILLION were having the problem ... :-) ...

Then you can link us to this information?

Thanks in advance

(Oh and different nations watch different 'National News'. I have no idea what Nation YOU are in, but it sounds like iPads are working /or not   much differently than in my Nation )

I've been keeping up with the tech and iOS news from around the world, and there are simply no reports of some kind of mass problem. It simply doesn't exist. All that is going on is the same thing that goes on with a few users during every major update on the iOS ... it happens every time and it's nothing more than a hiccup. And even though it affects those few ... a 100% in their own particular situation  ... that still does not translate into it affecting 100% of the users, and nowhere even close to a significant percentage.

I'm  guessing you don't have an ipad 2 with iOS 8.1 running on it?

I don't but I have lost count of how many iPad 2 owners have told me that I have helped them ... and that's the good thing about "users helping other users" in that any user can help iPad 2 owners.

AND ... how do you think I got a lot of my points here recently? ... from iPad 2 owners awarding me points that they hand out!!

So what have you added to this discussion to help the many frustrated ipad 2 owners running ios 8.1?

i Have clean installed at great length/pain and it is still the same, **** slow, fine on iOS 7.

i Have logged requested with Apple requesting help, no replies yet........

I'll let my points speak for me, because those points I have gotten recently have come from mostly iPad 2 users. You see ... only the user, himself or herself, can award those points, and they do so on the basis of what they see as help.

At the very least, I can easily say I've helped more than you ... :-) ...

BUT ... mind you ... there are others who have helped these iPad 2 users way more than me!

You won't get a reply. They state that on the Feedback link. But if enough people complain about a problem then Apple may take a look at it and apply a fix it one is required.

I don't see anything about it being an international issue for every iPhone and iPad user. (I only read the first one, Cnet are considered a gossip and unreliable source by most I know).

Did I miss that information somewhere in the text?

Pete

Yep, I see they're talking about a big disaster there ... LOL ...

You won't find any such articles regarding the claim made here by some highly agitated people, saying that it's a massive problem with all iPad 2 owners and users ... never mind that iPad 2 owners here on this forum exist who deny that very thing ... :-) ...

What you've got there in those articles is a standard news article coming out about some bug fixes that Apple is doing, something that any one of us could have told you was going to be done (i.e., "bug fixes") before there was ever an iOS 8 even released. This is all very standard and "ho-hum" stuff! There has never been a major upgrade by -- any company -- at any time in the last 30 years -- that didn't have a series of bug fixes issued afterwards, including ALL the iOS upgrades since the beginning of the iPhone!

Thanks will try it.
