Who has problems with their iPad when they open up the home page on dpc only to find the bottom quarter missing. I often have this problem. Also have problems with jittery ipad when I vote, it can bounce up down to the point that I can't connect a vote, so the only option is to reboot. Anyone know how long an iPad is suppose to work for, only had mine under 2 yrs thinking of getting a new one?

I've not experienced either problem on my iPad 4. I also have an iPad 2 that works just fine as well.

Have you installed the latest OS update? It came out a couple of days ago.

the only problem I have with an iPad is that

tnun's photos are sideways. it sounds like an obscure in-joke, but it's actually true.

I've often wondered about that myself. I've had my iPad 2 for around 4 years now and after heavy, daily use it is still going ok. I'm quite amazed at that considering the usage and also being thrown around by toddlers. I'd asumed it would keel over after a couple of years but it has lasted better than my macbook pro did. I haven't had any problems with DPC but some other websites crash it though.

We've got an iPad 1 in daily use as netflix/cctv screen won't update to latest iOS but still works fine and good battery life considering its charged and discharged almost daily

Works fine on my iPad 2 though I prefer to vote on my desktop PC with the nice big monitor. I only have IOS 7.X on my iPad 2 as heard that upgrading to 8 could make it turn into a slug.

Hmmmm ok mine freezes quite a bit also, oh well, might get another one soon.

The latest one. Ok just updated we will see now.

Was updating it but got an error message bc I needed more battery power so just charging it now.

Safari does tend to crash on mine more than it used to i have to say. Not that often as to become too frustrating though.

You are of course correct.

I don't understand why you might get another iPad soon given that the one you already have:

- freezes quite a bit
- sometimes the touchscreen doesn't work
- it is the latest one.
