Can't get my Ipad to charge through the PC or wall adapter, it's stuck on the connect to Itunes screen and will not let me reboot it.

My Ipad has been stuck on the connect to Itunes screen now for days, it will not charge through the PC or wall charger. When plugged into the PC it is not recognized by it. Itunes doesn't see it and it will not let me reboot the system. How can I get past this so I can start using it again?

Hello Aloe_85,
This screen indicates that your device must be restored before it can be used again. The steps detailed in the article below can help get your iPad to reappear in iTunes so that it may be restored.

Hey Pharryl,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your Apple TV. If the device is unresponsive, follow these steps to restart it:
Apple TV: How to restart your Apple TV
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3180
If you can't restart your Apple TV because it's unresponsive, try the following:
- Hold down Menu and Down on the Apple Remote for six seconds, and then release when you see the indicator light on the Apple TV blink rapidly.
- Unplug the Apple TV power cord for three seconds, and then plug it back in.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Icould backup popped up on screen and will not let me exit out of it to use my ipad

An icon popped up on my screen about my ipad not being backed up in two weeks. The "ok" button will not work and the icon will not go away. I can't unlock or turn off my ipad and i tried plugging it into my computer but that didnt help either.

Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

HT2693 cannot connect to itunes store. will not let me get any apps?

When I press the app store icon it comes back with "cannot connect to itunes store"
I am unable to get any apps.

Do you have a data connection? In other words do you have 3G, E, or the wireless symbol next to the bars and telco name?

TS1286 Hi! I can't get my IPad to charge when it's powerd on. HELP! :)

Hi! I can't get my IPad to charge when it's powerd on. It only charges when it's powerd off and it takes a while. Also, I can't sync at all. PC doesn't reconize it. Has anyone here had this problem that can give me a hint of what is going on?
Thanks a lot!

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

HT4060 tried everything and can't get my ipad to charge...how do you reset it if battery is complety dead?

tried everything and can't get my ipad to charge. How do you reset IPad when battery is completly dead? charger and cable works fine on IPhone.

First make sure you are using the charger that came with your iPad and plug that into a known good wall outlet. Let your iPad remain on the charger for at least an hour. It may take that long before it responds if the battery is completely dead. If using the charger that came with your iPad there are several reasons it may fail to charge.
Bad outlet. Make sure the Utsler has power.
Bad charger. Try a different charger.
Bad cable. Try a different cable.
Dirt in the connector. Check and clean if necessary.
Hardware failure. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

I keep getting the "connect to itunes" screen and have to restore my ipad. it will also drop the wifi connection every few mintues. what can be causing this?

I keep getting the "connect to itunes" screen and have to connect to itunes and do a restore on it. It will not pick up my ipad so I either have to do a restore or restore to new and it will work fine for a day or so except for dropping the wifi connection. What can be causing this? I have had this pad since January of this year and have not had any problems until recently.

If you have to keep restoring your iPad with iTunes repeatedly and there is no change after restoring as a new iPad or not from the iPad's backup, your iPad has a major problem - likely a hardware problem. The iPad includes a one year warranty. You can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

I purchased a movie through iTunes and the movie gets stuck on the opening screen and will not play. Has anybody had this happen? And if so is there any solution?

Hey Christian,
I'd follow the troubleshooting steps below, from this article:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
Reset the resolution
Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
See if that resolves the issue and gets your video playing again.
All the best,
David

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

The phone is in restore mode and the picture is telling you what to do. Connect the phone, by cable, to iTunes in the computer you normally use for syncing, and retore the phone.
