IPad (III) dies 4 weeks after Applecare ends. Has anyone experienced this?

One of my iPad (III)'s "bricked" when I proceeded to update to the latest version of iOS 7. It just displays an iTunes logo and a picture of the adapter plug. Wjen I plugged it to my MBP and iTunes, I got the message that the iPad must be "restored" and there is no S/N displayed.
It also happens to be about 4 weeks after the Applecare expired.
Has anyone experienced this behavior?
Thanks for your help.

Just an update on my issue with the iPad.
I observed a problem syncing my other iPad getting some error code -50. After a search on-line and the Apple Support I found a suggestion to change the USB - 30 pin cable then retry.
With that change, my problem in syncing my other iPad went away.
So I tried the same with the first iPad. Presto. I was able to restore the iPad with current operating system software then get all the apps etc. back.
Still no answer why the first iPad went into a "retore" mode after "upgrading" to iOS 7.1.1.
But lesson learnt, when having a connectivity problem, check cable as one of the items.
Thanks again.

    I experienced this shortly after I got my iPad. I went to the AT&T store, they put a new SIM card in and it's been fine ever since.

    This shouldn't happen. Take it back since it's new.

  • IPhone 6 recently stopped ringing and making text alert sounds since most recent upgrade to ios 8.1.1, has anyone experienced this, and if so, how did you correct?

    AFter recent upgrade to ios 8.1.1, my iphone 6 no longer makes text alert sounds and ring does not sound for incoming calls (except on car bluetooth).  has anyone experienced this, and if so, how did you correct?

    I had the same problem until tonight. Played with ring tones, do not disturb, volume, and everything else posted. What I found is that when you go to sounds/text tone, there are two types of tones in the scrolling menu. The top set of tones are for alert tones and the bottom set are ringtones. They are separated by a gray bar that states their purpose. Many of the tones are the same name. You need to set your text alert in the Ringtones and reminders, alarms, and such in alerts. The weird thing about this menu is when you go to sounds/ringtone the menu is reversed. Mine works in locked mode or unlocked now. I have an Iphone 6 8.1.2. My problem started after my latest OS upgrade. Hope this helps.

  • Has anyone experienced this problem: I am editing in FCP 7.0.3 on a Mac 10.6.8 - I have a clip in the browser that is full frame and matched the other clips but when I drop it in the time line it becomes a fully zoomed in version of itself

    has anyone experienced this problem: I am editing in FCP 7.0.3 on a Mac 10.6.8 - I have a clip in the browser that is full frame and fine and it matches the other clips in my bins but when I drop it into the time line it becomes a fully zoomed in version of itself and I can only see a small portion of the image.  What's going on?  I've noticed this has happened in the past randomly with other clips and it's driving me cray cray!  Any help appreciated greatly and thanks in advance for taking the time

    In the FCP Browser, click on the source clip that is showing up sized incorrectly to select it. Once it is selected, type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties here, or take a screen shot of the item properties and post the screen shot here.
    Next, click anywhere in your sequence timeline and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see your sequence settings. Either report those settings or take a screen shot of the sequence settings and post that screen shot here.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

  • My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE  app, has anyone experienced this problem?

    My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE  app, has anyone experienced this problem?

    This is not a problem I have only had with 7th gen. iPod.  I have had this problem with the 5th gen.  It goes back a few years.  Nike and Apple are aware of this.  Nothing has been done.  It appears that when the iPod voice commences (whether to update you on the status of your run) and you touch a button to prompt a mileage update or song change yourself (or even brush the device wrong when taking off a jacket), the operating system overloads and cannot sort it out.  It then shuts down and reboots.  Your mileage is lost.  So sorry.  Have a nice day.
    Love the other aspects of running with a nano (small and light weight).  I can keep it high and dry and out of the way.  Like the software.  Use it almost everyday.  Hate the unknown dropped runs.  I have logged over 2,000 miles with these devices.  Today I lost another 3 miles - probably the 30-40th time it has happened.  Frustration is somewhere between time for another device to time for another system - Map My Run indeed!
    This probably occurs with my iPod once or twice a month.  Went to the Apple Store - three times.  The first time was maybe two years ago and they first tried some magic dust and then on the second visit, they swapped out my nano - it was a bit flimsy.  The problem returned.  I then upgraded.  The problem returned.  The third time they did a reset and it seemed to help.  Then, it returned.  But to download an older software version, verify the fidelity of the UBS cable, jump from computer to computer, make a trip to the Apple store, and perform so many two steps on one leg just to get what we paid for seems . . .  well, lame.  And, Apple told us the thingy would work using all the different computers and software (Vista, Nike, etc. etc.).   
    Oh, one other thing.  The Apple Store told me to complain to Nike.  Nike said their software is fine.  This is like dealing with General Motors or the government - but, worse.  Not my problem man.  See the guy over there.  Got it.
    I note that no one from Apple is jumping in the chain here with a fix.  So much for customer exuberance.  Generally like Apple.  We have about 20 Apple devices in our family (desktops, portables, phones, pods, tablets) and are lining up for the watches . . .  but, maybe Apple is an idea who time has come and gone, . . . like the wind.

    I am trying to register my iPhone 4S for mobile phone insurance but the website does not recognise the serial number. Has anyone experienced this, and any idea how I can rectify the problem?

    When using the iPhone with the Windows OS, you need to have the Apple Mobile Device Service running. It should start automatically when you start the computer, but sometimes things happen. Use this support document to try and restart the service. See if that helps.

  • TS3274 my IPad has one half of the screen with vertical multi colored stripes and the other half is normal.  Has anyone experienced this and has a solution?

    My IPad has one half of the screen with vertical multi colored stripes and the other half is normal.  Has anyone had this problem and if so is there a solution?

    You could have a hardware issue, but try this and see if it helps.
    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 - let go of the buttons.

  • My iPhone 4S rings once and goes to voicemail after the os 7 update. Has anyone experienced this problem? How do I fix it?

    I updated my fully functional IPhone 4S to OS7. Now when someone calls it rings once and goes to voicemail. Has anyone had this problem? How do I fix it? And yes I have restored my phone and reloaded it twice, still *****. It has turned into a Microsoft product.

    Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • Has Anyone Experienced This Situation WIth Video Ipod (40gig)

    This might seem trivial but i have noticed something happening recently on my ipod. You know how when you are listening to a song and you press the middle button twice the display on the screen will be a picture of the album or CD from which the song came? Well, recently, there is only a square with no picture of the album art. Has anyone had this problem and is there a known fix? Thanks

    Mine does that sometimes. I'm not sure why. All I do is reset my iPod, and it seems to fix the problem. All you do is hold the center button and the Menu button at the same time until you see the Apple logo appear. Resetting your iPod will not erase what is on there. Give that a try and see if it fixes the issue.

  • Dreamweaver 2014 won't launch in Mavericks... has anyone experienced this problem?

    I downloaded the new 2014 version of Dreamweaver today & it won't launch in Mavericks... also dowloaded it to my PC & that works OK. Has anyone had this problem?

    Hi Harald,
    Looks like this is happening because of some issue during installation of the product.
    Can you try the following:
    1. Un-install DWCC 2014. Note: Before un-installing, I would suggest you to backup any user preferences files, extensions or site settings.
    2. Log out from your Adobe ID login in creative cloud.
    3. Log-in back again and then download and install the product.
    I am suggesting it since the same process helped one another user. Hence seeing if you are also encountering the same issue.
