After updating my ipad, it won't come back on, it has the itunes plug in on screen, what is the best way to restore everything that was on my ipad?

after doing an apple update, my ipad will not respond, all i get is the itunes plug in.  I want to make sure to restore everthing that was on my ipad?

The iTunes and plug icons are telling you that the iPad is in recovery mode. Connect the iPad to the computer you normally sync with and restore the iPad. You can use your most recent backup to restore your content. If you haven't backed up your iPad then your content is lost.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to press end the call

    why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to end the call

    hi smalley3,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The flickering issue maybe due to a bad LCD cable or in some cases, a faulty GPU (the GPU is integrated to the CPU, and the CPU is soldered to the motherboard).
    If there's still no image on the screen even after connecting an external display then you likely have a bad GPU.
    In this case, I recommend you contact support for service (and also to see if there's a consideration that can be done on the warranty repair).

  • I reset my iPod after it froze now it won't come back on...

    I was listening to the iPod hit play and it froze. I held the center and menu button to reset it now the computer won't read it, I can't get it to play...what can i do besides burying it...

    cigxmeda,
    If there is absolutely no response or screen display on your iPod after you reset it, try the following:
    1. Charge the iPod for 4 hours.
    2. After charging, disconnect the iPod from the charger and do not attempt to do anything to it for 24 hours.
    3. After 24 hours, connect it to your computer and see if the iPod gets recognized.
    4. If it is recognized by your computer, do a restore on the iPod.
    This is an old trick that has worked for some. I hope it works for you!

  • After updating to Maverick 10.9.4, all energy saving functionality has vanished from my MacBook Pro. What to do?

    I updated to the newest version of Maverick, and nor my MacBook Pro (late 2009) does not follow the energy saving instructions in Systemsettings.They have worked perfectly up until then, and I have made no other changes than updating the OS.
    What to do?
    Hope somebody can help me out here
    Best regards

    Peter,
    I am not quite sure why you are posting this in an iMac forum. However try resetting Disk Permissions using Disk Utility. If that fails do a Safe Boot and also reset the PRAM and SMC. If these fail then  please repost in the MacBook Pro forum OR the Mavericks forum.

  • How can I bookmark, in iTunes, so that the songs I play and then stop in middle of song then come back later - it will start where I left off.  What is the switch in iTunes to make this happen?  Thank You

    In iTunes I would like to set it to bookmark where I am holding in a song on my iPOD.  Let's say I want to play a song that I listen to yesterday and stopped playing it in the middle on my iPOD.  Today, I want to listen, on my iPOD, to the same song and have it start playing where I left off yesterday.
    Can someone please tell me what I have to do in iTUNES to have this feature on my iPOD?
    Thank You

    iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first.  Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one?  The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless).  To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes.  To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
    There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
    Realize what you are talking about is not "backup".  Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.

    You should have turned your MBP off!  Keeping it on sleep w/o use for 3 weeks makes no sense.  As others have already stated, you will need to take your comp to a repair shop.  More than likely you need a new battery.

  • My one day old MacBook pro just turned off and it won't come back on either through mains or battery power

    My one day old MacBook pro just turned off and it won't come back on either through mains or battery power it's as if the unit is completely dead. Even with the mains plugged in there is no green or orange light to say its charging or full charged. The battery was fully charged anyway seconds before the screen went off.

    When you say no green or orange light are you refering to the little led on the magsafe connector?  That could mean either the charger/cable are bad or the circuitry in the MBP is faulty.  Since this is a brand new MBP best bet is to take it back to an Apple Retail store and have the genius bar staff take a look.  They can determine if it needs to be reparired or replaced.

    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer

  • After upgrading to mavericks my mac shut off and won't come back on

    I upgraded to Mavericks and my 2013 macbook pro shut off and won't come back on.  When I push the start button I can hear the chime and then my sleep light blinks really fast and then shuts off completely.  All I get is a white screen with the loading circle just going around and around.  I tried resetting the pram but that didn't work.  Any ideas?

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list.  Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Alternatively, see:
    Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Choose the version you have installed now:
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X

  • HT4623 My ipad keeps crashing & now it won't come back on, just comes up to connect to itunes. Did that and tried a restore but just keeps comin up an unknown error, help please, I have so much on my ipad.

    My ipad keeps crashing and this time it won't come back on it just keeps telling me to connect to itunes which I did and it just keeps telling me it can't restore this ipad because an error has occured! Really need help please?

    If it keeps coming up with an unknown error - no error code given - try another computer. If that doesn't work, it's time to take it to an Apple Store or an authorized service center to have the device evaluated.

  • My IMac 21.5 mid 2010's HD is going bad on it, after upgrading to mavericks it slowed way down and after it shut off and now won't come back on, would Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 2TB Serial ATA Hard Drive - 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA 6Gb/s worked?

    My IMac 21.5 mid 2010's HD is going bad on it, after upgrading to mavericks it slowed way down and after it shut off and now won't come back on, I call apple support and they told me to bring it in but the nearest store is about two hours away. They said I need it to erase my hard drive but I have too many family pics on it.
    would Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 2TB Serial ATA Hard Drive - 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA 6Gb/s worked on it? I could replace the internal and get an enclosure for the original until I get the pics out of it?
    Please advise, it's like five years of family pics I don't wanna loose them and I am worried.
    Thanks
    Al Florez

    A Brody,
    I really apprecate your very quick respond, Its too late to back up as of now, my hard drive wont load at all so I cannot follow your instruction to back it up. Learn a hard lesson but I will from now on following your link.
    Also my hard drive it is not available to do the free exchange program.
    I read the OWC instruction on how to replace the drive I was just wondering if the 2TB would work on it instead of the 1 TB they offer, I specifically asked for the Seage Barracuda because I had great experiences with it on PCs.
    Again, Thank you

  • I was updating my phone and it turned off and won't come back on

    I was trying to update my iphone 5s yesterday and it shut off and now it won't come back on. I've had it plugged in all night and have tried holding the home and sleep button but nothing works

    Try holding the home and sleep buttons for as long as a minute.  Try it a few times.
    Are you sure it's plugged into a good outlet using a good charger and cable?
    Else, take it in to Apple and let them look at it... you have a 1 year warranty.
