The easiest first way to try to solve ‘unexplained’ or ‘unusual’ problems with the iPad is:-

Restart the iPad. Press *and hold* the Power button. After a couple of seconds a slider control will appear asking you to confirm that you really want to switch the iPad off (this is all you’ll be doing). Slide the control to accept. A rotating white ‘bezel’ will appear in the iPad screen as the iPad powers down (it takes a few seconds, just like it would if you were shutting down your PC). When the screen of the iPad has gone completely blank, press *and hold* the Power button for a couple of seconds until the white Apple logo appears and the iPad starts to power up. This takes several seconds, so be patient. During the power up the automatic screen orientation function is disabled, so don’t panic. A few seconds before the power up is complete, the iPad plays a little ‘jingle’ and then you’re back to the Home screen. Restart the iPad’s app and see if the problem persists. Apple (and Forum members) recommend that you power down your iPad at least once a week, just as you might regularly completely switch off your PC. The normal procedure of just briefly pressing the Power button of the iPad merely puts it to ‘sleep’. Most Forum members have found that the method I’ve mentioned here cures a whole bunch of unexplained problems and are an easy first step to resolving most anything that happens on the iPad.

I think if what Tim said doesn't fix it, u should upgrade the os. I had the same thing happening in the photos. It's a bug, that resets or reboots iPad when trying to scroll to fast thru my saved photos. It's not the connector kit. It was in the iOS itself. After I upgraded the os, it went away.

OK - first thing - don't panic and don't do anything rash.

Depening on the time of day, make yourself a nice cup of coffee or pour yourself a generous glass of wine (non-alcoholic, if you prefer).

OK - now down to work....

Press *and hold* the 'Power' and 'Home' buttons simultaneously for about 60 seconds - yes, you read me right - a whole 60 seconds until the white Apple logo appears. It can seem for ever while you're holding down those two buttons.

Once the white Apple logo appears, the iPad will perform a complete 'reboot' - it takes quite a while, so have patience and *don't panic*. Time for another cup of coffee or glass of wine...

No need to panic - no user files or apps will be lost - everything will come back just as it was....

Eventually you'll be back at the 'Home' screen and wanting to celebrate getting your iPad back with another glass of.....

Hope this works for you - get back to us if there's still a problem - we all love the iPad here and the 'difficult' problems are always the most 'interesting'.

Have fun and enjoy having your iPad back...
