HT4623 I updated my ipad to iOS 6 yesterday and it worked immediately after update.  I left home for about 4 hours and when I returned I was uable to get my ipad to come up. I only have a black screen.  When I press the on off button nothing happens.

I updated my ipad to iOS 6 yesterday and it worked immediately after updating my ipad worked as it should.  I left and came back in about 4 hours and have a black screen.  When I press the on off button nothing happens.  Help.

Assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep/on/off and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own.

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Iphone 4s(ios 7) hangs after i reject calls by pressing the on/off button while it is in the lock screen.I restart the phone every time when i reject calls..what can i do ?

    iphone 4s(ios 7) hangs after i reject calls by pressing the on/off button while it is in the lock screen.I restart the phone every time when i reject calls..what can i do ?

    I've same problem in iPhone 5c. I was using iPhone 4, problem appears after updating to ios7. I changed my phone to iPhone 5c, looks like it's a bug in ios7. But I think you might not turn on or off your internet connection frequently to reduce this problem. My friend has a same iPhone she never gets such problem like this cause she uses iPhone 5c with Tata Docomo (India) 2g with no internet connection. May be this would be the best solve that you should not turn on or of your internet connection so frequently...
    Do any one have any better idea?

  • Since Apple's last Update on 6 June 2014, I have been unable to Import photos from any source. I receive a message saying, Importing photos but nothing happens. When I click on Stop Import, nothing happens. I must press the On/Off button to exit iPhoto.

    Since Apples last update on 6 June 2014, I have been unable to Import photos from ANY source. When I attempt to do so, I receive the message "Import  Preparing to inmport..." I've waited 10 minutes but nothing happens. When I click on the icon, Stop Import, nothing happens. When I attempt to Close iPhoto i receive the message, "Photos are being imported to the photo library. Please wait for import to complete." When I click on OK, nothing happens. The only way I can exit iPhoto is to press the On/Off button.

    After loading this file I was sucessful in importing photos from a web site, my camera memory card and a CD containing photos.
    That is a good news.  We now know, that iPhoto is working as expected, when you are switching to a different library.
    But this is puzzling:
    I then see a box with two Librarys listed, both have the same name except for the following and are listed as:
    iPhoto Library.photolibrary but one has (default) after its name which is the one which is always displayed when I load iPhoto.
    Underneath the box is written:
    /Users/paulfkardian/Pictures/iPhoto Library.photolibrary
    Underneath this are three boxes titled: Other Library    Create New    Choose
    I highlighted the the File without the (default) after its name and clicked on Choose. A Library was loaded which had my photos (about 9,822) from about 7 months ago. Underneath the box is written diferently than the file always loaded and says:
    /Users/paulfkardian/Pictures (original)/iPhoto Library.photolibrary
    You are having two "Pictures" folders in your Home folder, Pictures and Pictures (original)? And each has a different iPhoto library - one working correctly, and one not?  Do you remember, when this second "Pictures" folder has been created and what caused it?  Did you restore your Home folder from a backup some time ago?

    My iPad Air stalled during an update and will not restart even after pressing the on/off button for 15 seconds. Any suggestions?

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear and it should reboot.

    I can imagine that is frustrating as heck.  My daughter has one of these and I know for a fact hers does not turn off after 10 minutes because I have to turn it off for her every night after she has fallen asleep.  Below is what Apple has to say about it from a troubleshooting standpoint.
    "If music stops when the iPod nano screen turns off m Make sure the earphone port is free of debris. m Make sure the earphone or headphone connector is pushed in all the way. To see an illustration, go to support.apple.com/kb/ts3700."
    Are you using aftermarket ear buds or speakers when you listen to these lectures???  If so maybe it has something to due with a compatibility issue.

  • My ipad went blank last night for no apparent reason.  It was on one minute, and then completely dark.  I didn't touch it, it just seemed to have died.  I tried turning it back on/off, but nothing happens.  Anyone else have a similar situation?

    Thansk for the reply King_Penguin...let me elaborate and see what you think...I had the ipad2 in the office and saw the battery was getting really low.  I tried charging it with the iphone charger (connects to my pc at work).  It took a while, but it got enough juice in the ipad2 to bring it back to life.  when I got home, I hooked it up, and got to about 50%.  All was fine, then I was attempting to hook it up to my TV with the AV adapter (or VGA adapter, whatever it is), left the ipad alone for a minute, came back to it, and that's when it went dark.  I tried the home/sleep buttons, but only for about 5 seconds...any other suggestions in case that doesn't work?  Thanks again...

  • TS3274 my ipad isn't responding if i press the on/off button to turn it off so i could reset it

    How do I turn off my ipad when it isn't responding when I press the on/off button to turn it off so I could reset it?

    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

    First you can try to force reboot your phone.  To do this:
    1. Hold down the sleep/wake button and home button simultaneously.
    2. Let go when the Apple logo appears and the iPhone is booting up.
    If that doesn't work, you might need to hook the phone up to your computer and do a full restore through iTunes.
