    Back to Home Screen

    Have the IPAD3 (3rd gen) and i have had this problem where I will be in lets say Facebook, safari, craigslist and it will just kick me out, no notice and go back to the home screen. It doesn't say anything on the screen it just boots me out and back to the home screen. Anybody have this happening? Its sporadic and you never know when its going to do this. Thanks

    The apps are simply crashing. Many of them do that from time to time. Who knows why? First thing to try: reboot the iPad, by holding the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until you see an apple.

    No need to worry. To me it sometimes happens with the iPF app. All I do is wait a little, open another app and then go back to iPF app.

    Usually apps crash on an iPad due to low memory. You can take preventive action and regularly clear your app cache memory by double-clicking the Home button and tapping on the small red "-" sign on each of the apps you don't need in the newly appeared line at the bottom.

    I do that regularly. Still sometimes my apps crash.
