I hope you have a backup if you don't want to lose your iPad contents. You have to restore the iPad now using iTunes on your computer. That's what the message on the screen means.
Take a look at this.

    my ipad is freezing. am getting black screen with apple icon the middle. i can't start on or even turn off ipad. any suggestions.

    Try rebooting:  Press and hold BOTH the home and power buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart.  Let us know if this solves your problem.

    In that case....if you have Apple Care, give support a call - otherwise, walk it into the nearest Apple Store.
    Good luck.

    Mac book pro stops responding after Maverick OS restart. Currently have a circle with a line through it after 20+ hours. Tried to shut it down and use the Time Machine to restore but no response. How can I restore with Time Machine if it will not start?

    sonjadg,
    you can purchase a replacement pair of grey installation DVDs for your MacBook Pro from either Apple or iFixit. If Startup Manager is only showing an OS X Installer volume, then it sounds like the Mavericks installer had a problem midway through its installation process. To fix this, you’re going to need to erase your internal disk and reïnstall your original version of OS X from the grey Mac OS X Install DVD, use Software Update  to get it back to 10.6.8 (presuming that your MacBook Pro originally came with Snow Leopard), and then restore from Time Machine.

  • HT1414 I tried to do an update in the settings mode and now my ipad is frozen with a black screen with itunes app in the middle and showing to plug in the charger. Nothing is happening and tried turning off device and still nothing.

    Ipad locked up while trying to do an update. Don't know how to fix and can't use ipad at all. Black screen with itunes app in the middle of screen and it shows picture of charger that it wants me to plug in. Nothing works.

    You are in recovery mode, you need to restore it through iTunes on your computer. Follow the article you linked from.

  • My iPad is stuck on a black screen with iTunes logo

    My iPad is stuck on a black screen that has the iTunes logo and a usb adapter image.  This all happened when I got a software update for iOS 8.1 and started the update.  The screen will not leave this image.  I've tried everything from resetting holding the buttons to restoring the factory setting from the site.  Anyone have this from and can please help out?
    Thanks,
    Sandy

    My Ipad has the same logo on it's screen as well..trying to do an update via Itunes at present, but it is extremely slow.
    There are intermittent flashes of the Apple logo on the screen while this is happening..
    I have done every update since buying my Ipad, and this is the first time a major drama like this has happened, and it doesn't look like i am the only one having problems!!

  • I just got my iphone 4s and i went to sync it from my ipod and it froze with a black screen, with the apple in the middle, and what looks like a loading bar under it

    My iphone 4s is frozen and i dont know how to fix it

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • PLEASE HELP 2/24/13 Brand new iPod Touch 5th Gen froze on set up and I tried to shut it down and it was on the apple logo screen for a long time and it shut down but now it won't turn on! PLEASE HELPPPPPP

    DESPERATE PLEASE HELP So my mother got herself an iPod touch 5g for Christmas and barely asked me to set it up last night, (BRAND NEW NOT OPENED YET).. I set it up not plugged into iTunes (directly on iPod). I was setting up a new iTunes account for her (got passed Wi-fi set up and location services) and as I was doing that, it mysteriously froze somehow. So I held the home button and power button down simultaneously, which I thought would restart the iPod/shut it down.. so it did, and it was on the apple logo screen for a LONG TIME.. and when I checked after a long time, it was black. I tried to turn it on, charge, and plug it into itunes (iMac computer) and it won't turn on!!!!! PLEASE HELP

    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.

  • A new tab opens every few minutes, each named "jot (GIF Image, 1 x 1 pixels)", with a black screen with a white dot in the middle. How to stop it?

    This suddenly began happening last night after dinner. I've downloaded latest versions of Firefox and Adobe, and have done the Firefox "reset", but it keeps on happening.

  • ITunes deleted songs/videos/playlists from iPod touch and won't sync them onto iPod, but songs can still be played on iTunes however I just can't transfer them back onto my iPod. HELP!

    Hey, so I'm wondering if any of you can help me with this issue, I'd be unbelievably grateful for any help, I can't resolve it and I dislike my long commute without my iPod to listen to! Thanks in advance
    HOW IT HAPPENED: I had my iPod touch (32GB, 3rd generation) plugged into a speaker charging whilst playing music, and simultaneously I had iTunes (latest version for windows) open on my laptop (Dell - Windows). My iPod started to sync wirelessly with iTunes on my laptop and my music suddenly cut off.
    WHAT HAPPENED: Once the sync had finished, all (almost 4000) songs (and videos) had been wiped off my iPod (including any playlists) with the exception of less than thirty songs, all of which I'd noticed were songs I'd purchased on the iTunes store, a seemingly random selection though - some from a couple of months ago, some from a couple of years ago.
    I closed down everything on my laptop and restarted both laptop, iTunes and iPod then plugged my iPod in to sync. My iTunes library on my laptop is fully intact, complete with playlists, and I'm able to play songs normally from there, however despite numerous attempts, they just won't sync onto my iPod. Interestingly, no apps were deleted from my iPod. There's plenty of room on my iPod now, and even when everything on my iTunes library is synced onto it, there's still around 3GB space, so it can't be an issue to do with lack of space. I have no idea why it's happened, and the settings are for everything on iTunes to be synced to my iPod (I checked again) so it's not an issue with selective items to sync only either.
    A huge thank-you to anyone who can help me!

    I have the same problem!! only thing is that i have the ipod touch 5th generation and a mac. I've been trying to find a way to get all my music to play cuz it will only play on itunes but when i try to play it on my ipod it'll just show a circle with a red square in the middle next to the songs i cant play.

  • Tecra M2 - black screen with the cursor flashing

    Hi guys,
    Im hoping someone out there may be able to help me fix my laptop.
    Ive read a couple of posts but not sure they can help me.
    When I swicth on my Tecra M2, I just end up with a black screen with the cursor flashing in the top left or I get a screen filled with alternating 0's and 1's.
    Sometimes the TOSHIBA splash screen appears with the boot options, other times it doesnt.
    I cannot boot to CD and it wont boot to the HDD. Ive taken the HDD out and the CDROM out but it does the same thing which to me suggests that its not getting through the BIOS even as far as the boot sequence.
    Does this sound like BIOS failure to you and do you know of a way to fix it? Ive tried taking the battery out, powering off and starting again but the same thing happens.
    Any advice would be be appreicated.
    Thanks,
    Ross

    I have had this twice now and in both cases it was caused by a faulty HDD - to confirm that the motherboard etc is still OK load the recovery CD in the DVD drive (or even better a freestanding XP disc), press F2 on startup and shift the cursor under the DVD drive as the boot drive.
    If the motherboard etc is OK you will get the reload instructions (from the recovery disc) or a Windows install screens (from the XP install disc).
    Satisfied that the machine at least works - replace the HDD and recover from the recovery disc or try a Windows repair from the recovery console (from the XP install disc with the HDD still in place).
    In my cases I was forced to recover to a new HDD and then rebuild the machine from backups - I now clone the HDD when rebuilt.

    And you might want to look into programs to backup / clone / and provide system restore capability.

  • My itouch is frozen on the black screen with the apple icon, I've done the whole reset holding the power and home button together but still won't work. Can someone please help!?

    So I've done the whole hold the power and home button, it resets but still stays frozen on the black screen with the apple icon

    Did you try to reset by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
    Does it work with headphones plugged in? If yes, did you try to play music in headphone mode, then unplug during playback and start playing music again after that?
    If you toggle the volume, can you see the slider moving up or down?

    Let the battery fully darain. After charging for an least an hour try a reset and restore. Use Recovery mode if necessary.
    If not successful, then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
