Are there any fixes for the iPad 2 IOS 8.1.1? I've had problems with Safari and other Apps crashing or locking up, and with extremely slow touch response. These problems have been occurring since the last update. At times the iPad becomes unusable. I have been keeping all programs closed and history and web site data cleared. Thanks for any help you can give.
iPad 2, iOS 8.1.1
Hi, dannilee,
I have exactly the same problem. The device was my favorite computer until 8.1.1. Now it runs s-l-o-w-l-y, requires endless reboots.
To improve the performamce, I have tried these:
1.Go to Setting->General->Accessibility->Reduce Motion. Turn on.
2.Reset iPad device settings using Setting->General->Reset->Reset All Settings. Its increase iPad performance little better.
3.Hold the sleep/wake button and home button upto 8 seconds. This will turn off your iPad. Then turn on iPad. Wait few moments. Do the same thing twice to solve this issue.
Solution 3 worked for me. And, I always recommend you to backup your iPad first before any action to avoid any data loss.
Hope it is useful for you.
Suggest you backup iPad and setup as new; do not restore from backup until you have tested the iPad thoroughly.
Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and Settings
Thanks for your help. I changed the motion setting and will see if it helps. The problems almost seem like a virus or something. They occur at different times and on different apps.
Thanks for your feedback. Many iPad users are facing this problem. Hope you can get rid of this. Have a nice day!
