Hi!,
I'm really at the end of my rope and I don't know what to do! I had an iPad 2 that was in perfect working order until I made the mistake of updating to ios 8 and subsequent ios "fixes'. These updates have literally rendered my iPad useless . I've tried everything suggested on the internet and nothing has helped. It is extremely slow, freezes constantly, causes certain programmes to crash and seems to have a mind of its own..doing things I've no control over etc.
Last Christmas though, I received an iPad air with ios 7 on it. I wasn't to crazy about the look of it and was happy with my iPad 2 so I didn't really use it until this happened. However when I went back to start using it, noticed it has a couple of problems that weren't there before so not sure if something happened when I transferred everything over from iPad 2. When using Safari, regardless if there's 1 tab open or more, it closes the program on me and more frustrating, my battery runs down so fast it's crazy. Again nothing I've tried has helped. I realize that other people are having these issues with ios 7 but I'm scared to update ios after all the problems it's caused my previous iPad. My iPad air is literally brand new even though I had it for a year because it hadn't been used till now. I can't tell you how frustrated and upset I am over all this and I just don't know what to do. I'm not very computer savvy but can follow directions. I would really appreciate any help or suggestions because as I said, I'm really at the end of my rope here! Thanks in advance!
