App problems with 4.3?

[Sportsgram]

Found my first app issue with 4.3 todat. Twitter app would not start. Deleted and now it will no install. Any other apps that you have run across?

The easiest first way to try to solve ‘unexplained’ or ‘unusual’ problems with the iPad are:-

Force the offending app to close. If you have iOS 4.2 double-press the ‘Home’ button to bring up the multi-task bar at the bottom of the screen. Press *and hold* any icon until they start to ‘jiggle’. Then tap the top left-hand corner of the app that you want to close. It will ‘disappear’ from the list. Don’t panic - you’ve not deleted it, just closed it. Now tap the Home screen and the multi-task bar will disappear. Re-open the iPad’s app and see if the problem has resolved itself. If not, it’s on to possible solution number two!!
Restart the iPad. Press *and hold* the Power button. After a couple of seconds a slider control will appear asking you to confirm that you really want to switch the iPad off (this is all you’ll be doing). Slide the control to accept. A rotating white ‘bezel’ will appear in the iPad screen as the iPad powers down (it takes a few seconds, just like it would if you were shutting down your PC). When the screen of the iPad has gone completely blank, press *and hold* the Power button for a couple of seconds until the white Apple logo appears and the iPad starts to power up. This takes several seconds, so be patient. During the power up the automatic screen orientation function is disabled, so don’t panic. A few seconds before the power up is complete, the iPad plays a little ‘jingle’ and then you’re back to the Home screen. Restart the iPad’s app and see if the problem persists. Apple (and Forum members) recommend that you power down your iPad at least once a week, just as you might regularly completely switch off your PC. The normal procedure of just briefly pressing the Power button of the iPad merely puts it to ‘sleep’. Most Forum members have found that one of the two methods I’ve mentioned here cure a whole bunch of unexplained problems and are an easy first step to resolving most anything that happens on the iPad.

Twitter OK but Safari closes itself down every once in a while??

 

[dminches]

I got an error stating there was an unknown error. It is telling me that I have to restore which will wipe out my data. Am I screwed? What are my options?

It may or may not have been from the 4.3 upgrade, but, I noticed in my photo folder that several of my pictures were duplicated - even 3 and 4 of the same shot??? Other than that everything appears to be okay.

Under iOS 4.2 the screen lock button was re-assigned to turn off system sound notifications. To lock the screen you have to 'double tap' the 'Home' button to reveal the multi-task bar. Now 'flick' the screen to the right and you'll reveal the audio controls and the new screen orientation lock control.

Under iOS 4.3 the button assignment can be changed between 'Mute system sounds' and 'screen orientation lock' under the iPad's native 'Settings' app.
