Is it good to once in a while restore your ipad? Kind of like a defragmentation on windows. Im wondering if this would be beneficial and help my ipad.

Thanks

You will only restore IF you have a problem that you can't resolve, there is no need for restoring the iPad

Welcome to the forum! There are a lot of great people here willing to lend a hand anytime. Often using the search feature (in the toolbar at the top of every page) will lead you to the answers you're looking for. If not, feel free to post a question in the appropriate area.

With regard to restoring the iPad, unlike a DOS/Windows environment, Apple's operating systems including the iPad's iOS 4 don't require "defragging". So as Ernie mentioned there's no performance benefit or need to restore your iPad unless something goes critically wrong with it.

Hope that helps!
