When you have problems with an app it's a good idea to clear it from RAM.
Close/Clear the app: With the problem app closed, double tap on the Home button to get the multitask bar. Tap and hold on any icon in the bar until they jiggle, then tap the minus sign on the problem app. This will remove it from RAM and insure a clean start the next time you launch the app.
If that does not work try a restart,
Restart: Hold down the power button until the power off slider appears. Slide it off. When the iPad finishes shutting down, hold down the power button again until the Apple logo appears.
and then a reset if that does not work.
Reset: Hold down the power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears. The iPad will reboot. This usually takes a bit longer than a restart.

I just installed the latest IOS for my iPhone and iPad 2 and I have noticed my battery on my iPhone is going down a bit quicker than before but my iPad battery is fine..
I'm not 100% sure about if my battery in my iPhone is actually got worse since the latest update how.
Does the iCloud photo stream use a lot more battery because other wise not sure why it has got so low so quick..
God dam it...Now my photos in my galary are disappearing again, just like it did first time I updated and I had to bring it back to apple for a new one..
Please.please please can some one help me for I really do not want to keep bringing my iPhone and iPad back to apple after each update..

Anything that downloads or uploads stuff to the internet in the background is going to affect your battery life. If you take a couple dozen pictures on the iPhone, that's about the same as buying several apps and leaving them to download.

With my iPad I have had the photo gallery problem before in that some photos that are stored in the gallery disappear then reappear again..I have already had my iPad replaced because of this problem and I really don't want to have to bring it back again so they can just replace for a new one..
With my iPhone I will see how the battery goes today to see if it last longer if I don't use internet..

Hi iPad peeps...what does one do when ones has upgraded to 5.0.1, all apps were copied off and then back (OK, well not all actually, a couple vanished, but easy enough to get them back) but i've lost ALL saved data for my games...all Angry Birds which were 99% completed 3 stars on every level, Infinity Blade II back to square one...EVERY game which involves saved data was lost
HELP!?!
Thanks in advance

If you interrupted the process before it restored from you backup, that could happen, and it's been to occasionally happen even if you did a restore from backup.
If it's important enough, connect it back to the computer and try a Restore from Backup. You'll lose anything you've done since that backup though, so keep that in mind. If you've backed up or synced using iTunes since updating the iPad, it's already too late. iTunes only keeps one backup.
The option show up when you right click on the iPad in iTunes.
It may not work; but it is the only thing that has a chance of working.

To be absolutely clear, a Restore from Backup. A straight restore would only make the problem worse.

Hmmmm, ****, not sure I did a Backup, or is that automated as part of the process?
It prompted me to transfer apps which were not on the computer, but don't recall it prompting about a Backup...downloaded upgrade, did upgrade, did restore...I never interupted it whatsoever, it said it was all all completed, no actions still happening, but yeah, all saved data gone, all file/folders gone

Open iTunes on the computer, go to Preferences and the Devices tab. It will show you your backups along with the date of the last backup. If that's the date you did the update, you're probably good to try the Restore from Backup. Otherwise; try to enjoy those games as if you had all those achievements to look forward to, because you do.
