Hello everyone. Hope everyone is ok. In advance merry x-mas and happy new year to all of you guys.
I come this time with a new question...
I pretty much Know now how to use my iPad but I'm still kind of new when it comes to using it.
For the last couple of days, when I'm using the Internet (safari) all of a sudden it logs me out of everything. It takes me out to the initial page (desk top sorth of saying :s)
Does anyone knows why this is happening?
And also the iTunes little thing keeps on appearing very often asking me for my password like if I was trying to download something.

Thanks everyone :)

This happened to me for a very shortwhile the other day! But it has stopped now and seems to be fine again. My gut feeling is that it was a fault with Safari but i have no idea what?

Try a soft-reset. Close all apps then - Hold down the HOME, bottom button, and the SLEEP, top button, for about 10 seconds until the Apple icon appears. Allow it to reboot, it may take a few minutes, don't panic like I did, wait for it to reboot. Cures many weird problems on iOS devices.

Remember to check how many pages are held in memory (third icon in on safari taskbar.
The iPad has only a small amount of memory 256 so it can quickly run out.

Thanks for the comment.
I thought about doing that but the problem is that I already paid for some of the apps. Am I going to lose them when I do this?

the problem occurs when I have either 1 or more pages open.
Sometimes I'm only checking my email with no other pages open and still happens.
Any new ideas why?

Thanks

Hmm I use safari a lot and haven't noticed a lot of crashing. Occasionally it will close but reopening is so quick it hasn't registered as a problem. I suspect it has much to do with the coding of a particular page.
Have you tried opening one of the crashing pages in another browser such as iCab or Atomic? Theres a chance they might handle them better.
