Is anyone having an issue with their iPad locking up while watching video? I tried watching a show on the ABC app and I had to restart the iPad 5 times because it kept locking up. This also happend in YouTube and while watching a Netflix movie.
I have done all things listed above along with taking to an Apple Store!! I believe Apple has some bugs to fix!! And we are not gonna get 4.0 until the Fall!!!!
Just because 4.0 isn't coming out until the fall doesn't mean there won't be minor increments to the current firmware before then. I'm sure there will be incremental updates to fix various issues.
Hows the WIFI connection when you lock up??? Is the movie or show fully loaded or is the watching of the show overlapping the download of the show which will cause it to freeze....
If you install a movie directly on iPad does it work... if not then I'd goto Apple for it to be replaced... otherwise the apps that play Netflix and TV shows using the HTML5 just may need some tweaking by those developers...
Yeah that is what I was thinking, but I am also having problems with YouTube videos. I feel pretty confidant that it is an HTML5 problem. I just hope that Apple comes up with a fix real soon because that is the main reason that I bought it, for the video that is
I am also having problems with the iPad locking up wile watching streaming netflix movies. The only remedy I found is to reboot. This is my first apple product. How good are they at fixing these types of things? Will this be something that I can just get a download for or should I take it back to the store?
I have had the same problem twice this morning. Once while watching you tube video and the other video thru safari. Hope this is a software issue only.
air video does it for me everytime I try watching a video with that application, also with soundhound it locked up on a youtube video from that application.
I haven't watched too much video on mine, but the one time I sat down and watched Modern Family on it, it got about 18 minutes in and the ABC app closed. Nothing froze, didn't need to reboot- but the app closed. Almost like I bumped the home button (but I didn't)
YouTube via safari and videos in AP app crash a lot for me. I don't think I've seen it happen in the YouTube app though -- however I'm not 100% on that.
