Safari on my iPad has recently gotten into the charming habit of, say once every two days, suddenly vanishing all my bookmarks and history - fixable only by a cold app restart : )
I've had some other odd issues with Safari on my 3rd generation iPad:
- About every day (sometimes much more frequently) a tab will just die. You'll click a link or enter a url, and the indicator in the top left corner will start spinning, but nothing ever happens. The only way to fix it is to close the tab and open a new one.
- Less frequently - maybe every few weeks or less - large blocks of web pages will just not render, instead of text or graphics or whatever should be there, there are just giant square white chunks. The only way to fix this is completely reboot the iPad.
I've also had a number of weird problems with the iTunes app that have required finding a way to force the app to quit or reboot the device to fix.
I like my iPad, but Apple's stock apps have quite a bit of room for improvement.
