Whenever I turn on my ipad 4 it takes a couple seconds before the slide to unlock will respond to my finger... Do any of you guys have this issue? It doesn't happen when I wake it from sleep mode but I'm a little concerned. Thanks!

It's normal operation...
I believe the unit isn't fully booted up when the slide to unlock appears on the display.
I have a password on mine and when the keypad comes up to enter my code I have to wait about 2 seconds before it wil accept any input.

We need to be a bit more patient. :eek:

Thank you guys! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one! Seems like it's nothing to worry about. =)

Your talking about waking it up..............try it from an off state (i.e. full boot).

You fully shut down your iPad every time you stop using your iPad? Then restart with a full boot again when you wish to again use it?
But I now understand what this delay a is about.

Where did I say that?

But, If I don't plan on using my iPad for more than a few hours I do shut it down.
Takes a whole 25 seconds to boot. :eek:
