Troubleshooting your iOS device! PART 1
Hi there everyone and welcome to Axle Tech, a friendly blog that explains binary language in "plain" English!
K, let's start those iDevice because today I will share with you the secrets of handling your iPhone,iPod or iPad. Before we get to the hard stuff lets start with the basics, let's get to know our device, shall we ?
1- iPhone,iPod, iPad freeze !
Okay, people what do you do when your device freezes ? Some of the way to get it out of freeze stat is to let the device drains out of it's juice then charge it.
--> solution to this problem is simple, just hold the power and home button together and it will black out then lights up! Release when you see the apple logo.
2- iDevice overheating ! (older devices)
Okay ladies and gents sorry to ruin your day at the beach but you should consider the temperature there and also verify if the device is getting hot, overheating device can result of hardware problems and also of shortening the battery life of the device, eventually when overheating it will discharge much faster.
--> solution to this is to take out the case if it have and take it to a cooler place, do not splash in water or put it in the freezer, water and circuit boards are not friends. If the problem persists, try shutting it down for a while and wait until it cools off!
3- Device is running slow
Sometimes your device could be a real turtle at some point, apps may be loading much longer than usual.
-->solution
apparently that's a sign that your device is running out of memory. You better try to free memory by killing (closing) apps that you are not using. How to do that ?
Press the home button twice, you will see the multitasking menu showing all the running apps.
Then tap and hold the app icon you want to close and you'll see soothing like this
Tap on the red bubble to close and VoilĂ you have free some memory.
That's it for today!
Be sure to look out for the second part of this post where I will post advanced troubleshooting which involves in stuff like errors 16xx 17xx during restore and much much more, STAY TUNED !
