Reset an old iPad increases its speed?  NOT SOLVED!

My husband has replaced its old iPad 2 / 16 gb for a new iPad Air 2 / 64 gb. I would like to take his old iPad and strictly use for my memory-hogging games like Bash Bingo, secret society, The Room, etc. If I do a full reset, it will give me enough speed for these games? The main reason to replace the old with the new, is that the old one got painfully slow.

Also... the old iPad is running on OS 8.1.  If I do a total given, will be I have to install OS 9 or can I keep 8 OS?

Thanks in advance!

--> Don't know how the "Solved" button got there, sorry. Tried to delete, but apparently impossible.

I meant "iPad Air 2"

  • should I disconnect iCloud on all my apple devices before you reset my old iPad

    I got a new iPad 2 Air for Christmas and I want to give to iPad 4.  I want to restore it to the factory setting before I give it.  Should I disconnect iCloud on all my Apple devices before I restore old iPad?

  • How to set up my old iPad with the content of my husband's iPad

    I give my husband my old ipad to replace its older iPad. I have reset my old iPad to factory settings and then save the sound an old man to iTunes on my MacBook and then synchronize my old iPad than upward?

    You, in fact, start with settings > general > reset > erase all content and settings on the old iPad you disclose.  (Before doing this, make sure that the iPad has been removed to find my (iPad), if it has been implemented.  Also, make sure that you have made the settings > general > software update, then it executes the current iOS version.)

  • Speed up the old iPad

    My iPad is about 3 years and running slow.  Is there maintenance tasks easy to accelerate this back and get more life out of it?  FWIW, I'm about to capacity up to 3/4.  I have a lot of stored photos of the sync'ing regular.  Thank you!

    Here's my own variation on the normal restore procedure who worked, successfully, for some users of iPad 2/3, so far!

    I did and my iPad 2 and 3 are working like new, 'out of the box' units!

    First, connect your iPad to USB and sync and backup your iPad to iTunes (make sure that your iTunes is up to date).

    Then disconnect/eject your iPad to the computer.

    Since the iPad, in the application settings under the general framework, look in the right column for the reset option, choose the content clear all to clear and reset your iPad at the plant, "in the box" configuration.

    Again, to the iPad, set up as a new iPad and follow all instructions.

    Then reconnect your iPad to the computer and do not forget to cancel synchronization, display by pressing the little X to the left in the iTunes top center.

    iTunes should detect your iPad. If iTunes begins to try and synchronize, even once, cancel synchronization.

    Then select restore backup instead and choose your last backup in order to restore on your iPad.

    Once the restore is complete, complete the set up of the iPad and let it sync to iTunes, you can cancel the synchronization again or let it back up, once again.

    Then remove the iPad.

    Do a hard reset of your iPad by pressing Home and sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until your iPad goes to the dark and restarts with the Apple logo and then release the buttons.

    Once your iPad is back at the home screen,

    In the application settings tab general, right under the spotlight sesrch, try disable the search under the applications who really don't need a research, as some games, remote controls, apps that are really useless to be searched, etc., in order to reduce the list to Spotlight search.

    Try to turn the reduced movement.

    This is found in the application of settings in the general tab, in the left panel.

    In the right panel, look under accessibility, look to reduce the Motion and turn this feature "On".

    You should see a significant performance increase on all models of iPad 2, 3 and 4.

    In the application settings under the general tab, in the right column, search background App update and enable this setting to "off".

    If you have purchased any music from iTunes, you will need to re-download this content back to your iPad to play directly from your iPad and no music from Apple servers.

    Also, if your iPad contained many pictures in the Photos app, these will take time to regenerate the original AND thumbnails themselves inside the Photos app when you start everything first.

    Good luck!

  • I don't think that my fan does not work, not very hot at the air inlet, can I increase the speed of the fan?

    Is it possible to increase the speed of the fan, my laptop is not hot enough?

    In other words, it must be controlled by the motherboard. Points to check are all the ventilation grids which allow the air make sure they are free of lint, pet hair, dust, etc. If there are panels that can be removed (as for the HDD or RAM upgrades), delete and wipe any dust, etc, from there. With the panels off, get a can of air spray to Wallyworld, Staples, etc. and blow through the orifices of evacuation to the inside. That should dislodge from the heat sink.
    After a thorough cleaning, the outgoing air should be slightly cooler. Keep in mind that the more stressed the CPU and GPU are, more air is exhausted. If you think there might be a problem, there are a number of utilities that will control the fan speed and the different system temperatures:

    HWMonitor http://www.cpuid.com/hwmonitor.php
    CoreTemp http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/
    Http://www.almico.com/sfdownload.php fan speed (also allows the fan control)

    If you used to use the laptop on your lap, you can think about getting one of the aprons to put on; very often, during its use on the knees, some of the Airways under may be blocked by your pants, causing overheating. I had a Logitech, which has a sliding mouse (I can't stand the touchpad), and it has helped tremendously with my gateway heat problem.

  • I use an ipad to a friend not locked... I have myself a code and a apple ID... It works well, now afete upgrade to the latest os blocked .i and wonder the old apple... what to do ID. ?

    I use an ipad to a friend not locked... I have myself a code and a apple ID... It works well, now aferupgrading in the last os blocked .i and wonder the old apple... what to do ID. ?

    Hello

    You describe Activation Lock, which prevents the unauthorized use of the iPad if it's lost or stolen.

    This can be disabled by the person who helped him either entering their Apple ID and password of the device or to remove the iPad from their list of devices to find my iPhone via iCloud.com.

    If the friend who sold or gave the iPad for you is the original owner and who has activated locking Activation, they can try to recover their Apple ID information and forgotten password if they have forgotten one or both of them:

    If they cannot recover this information (and therefore can't follow the steps described above), but they still have their proof of purchase as the original owner of the iPad, ask them to accompany you and the device to a Genius Bar appointment, where Apple may be able to help by removing the lock.

    If you can not organize or any of these measures, then you will not be able to use the iPad. There is no way around this security feature.

    Hello

    If all goes well he material s no problem, but I m afraid it could be
    I think it might be a hardware problem, because you said that you have already configured the laptop back to factory settings and this has not solved the problem.

    I understand this correctly? You used the recovery disc or HARD drive recovery?
    Is this good?

    What you could do is to check if your BIOS is up to date.
    On the European driver Toshiba page, you will find the latest version of the BIOS.
    Check if you can update the BIOS.
    In addition, I recommend setting the BIOS to default and settings to save the changes.

    At least a graphics card driver might be updated also. Its worth a check however, I m really not sure if this might help you

  • The Apple showing in the page settings of ICloud ID does not go and watch my old email address that does not exist as an Apple ID.

    I know my good Apple ID and password and have checked the details on Apple's site that shows the Ipad on the list of devices.

    The Ipad will connect has WiFi and I took it at John Lewis today where I bought it and they think that the problem is being caused by this problem of ID.

    Another that take it to the Apple store, anyone have any suggestions please?

    Welcome to the Apple community.

    If you are unable to remember your password, security issues, do not have access to your address of rescue or are unable to reset your password for any reason, your only option is to contact the Support of Apple ID, to speak to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID This way you can be attributed to the assistance, even if you do not have an AppleCare plan.

    You will need to be patient with the process and to be ready to prove without doubt that the account belongs to you. Do not expect access to be restored immediately and if you are not the owner of the Apple ID saved to the device the account will not be reset.
