- 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 another cable                                                       
- 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.

  • Any idea why a 3 month old new IPad won't turn on?  It has been charged today and was working perfectly last night while I used it to read a book.  I have tried both the sleep/wake button and the on/off button on the front.  Nothing is happening.

    Any idea why a 3 month old Ipad will not turn on?  It has been charged and I haved tried the sleep/mute button and the on/off button on the front.  Nothing is
    happening.  It was working fine last nigh?

    1. Hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together
    2. For 10 to 15 seconds
    3. Until you see the Apple logo
    4. Ignore the red slider
    Note: Repeat it if it doesn't work the first time

  • Any ideas why Runtime.exec() w/ 1.4.0 works but doesn't w/ 1.4.1

    I have developed a program which uses Runtime.exec(). It works in development but not in the production.
    The development machine runs Windows2000 with SDK 1.4.0.
    This program does not run on the target machine (production). The target machine is a Windows2000 servers with JRE 1.4.1_01.

    Does anyone have any suggestions what is going on?

  • I have a 16gb iPad which was nearly full so bought a 32gb to allow me to add more music. The old one had 1200 songs on but the new one will only take 777 from the same collection. Frustrating as ****!,, any ideas why please

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • Any ideas why the sound only works on about half of my apps?

    Any ideas why the sound on my ipad only works on about half of my apps?

    The problem of tracks becoming de-linked between iTunes and the music files in your iTunes music folder happens for different reasons - this seems to come up fairly commonly in this forum.
    The solution can be to locate each song in the iTunes library, as you mentioned - or, but wait, before I get to that...
    trouble finding the original track in your iTunes music folder? maybe look for it under compilations, or if not using the 'group compilations preference' then look in the folder under the songs artist name, but what song artist name iTunes uses depends on what you have in the metedata tag spot for album artist or song artist. Any varyation in artist name spelling, in the menu item 'get info' metadata for any selected individual track will cause iTunes to create that as a separate artist folder in the library, even names like 'various' or any difference at all (even the word 'the' can change where in your iTunes music folder a track gets placed by iTunes). You can try to use the finder function of find file (finder munu item outside of iTunes) to locate hard to find items.
    Back to how to re-link any de-linked tracks .
    There may be scripts that can help re-link de-linked music files - or, at least provide you a list of such files, Scripts are easy to install and use...
    at Dougs Scripts, there is one called iTunes Track CPR that might work
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=itunestrackcpr
    or, if you just want a list of de-linked tracks, go to
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/
    and find the script called List MIA's, this will create a text file listing all de-linked tracks

    also the thread at

  • My iPad is running slow and the touch screen is slow to respond

    When I start up my iPad, the slider button doesn't respond to touch until the screen times out and I press the start button again.  Then the iPad runs sluggish.  I deleted some unused programs.
    Is there anything I can do?

    Quit all apps in the recents tray, reboot your iPad and then see how things go as you start using apps again.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    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.

  • On two occassions, all contacts were wiped off the Ipad. Any ideas why this would happen?

    On two occassions, all Contacts were wiped off the Ipad 2. Any ideas why this would happen?

    Did it happen during a sync or did they just disappear?  After they were gone, we you able to retrieve them during syncing?  Are you using any 3rd party apps to access your contacts or just the built-in Contacts app?
    In any case, I've not heard of or expeienced this on my iPhone 3G (synced with Outlook and now Google) or my iPad, although I've only had my iPad for a short time.

  • Some photos from one day are showing up on my photo stream, and others from that same day are not. Any idea why this might be?

    Took a bunch of photos on vacation one day, and it seems like the first batch from one day are not showing up, but then all of a sudden, the ones from the second half of the day are there. They are not showing up on the photostream on my iPhone on which I took the photos, or on my iPad or in iPhoto on my computer. Any idea why this could be happening? All the other photos I took all week showed up on my Photostream.
    Is there anyway to force these photos into the photostream?
    Thanks! Any help would be appreciated!

    photo stream uploads photos from your photo app when it is connected to wifi and the photo app has been closed correctly.  That may be why your seeing photos pop up on different dates

  • I'm not getting a sound on videos taken on the iPad - any ideas why?

    slightly panicking here. Just thought I would play back some videos taken on the iPad, and to my horror, since december, I've not had any sounds on the videos taken on the iPad. Any ideas why? could it be that there is dirt in the mic?

    You aren't playing them back with sound muted on the iPad are you?
    If you lose sound for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email and other notifications, system sounds have probably been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled in two different ways: either by the side switch (located next to the volume up/down controls) or in the Recent Apps tray. The initial default is via the side switch.
    Check the status of Settings > General > Use Side Switch to:. If this is set to Mute, the switch on the side of the iPad will mute system sounds.
    If this is set to Lock rotation then the mute system sounds control is in the Recent Apps tray. Double tap the home button and, in the tray which appears at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is on the left. Is it is crossed-out tap on it and mute will be turned off and system sounds will be turned ON.
    This Apple Support article explains in more detail how the side switch works.

I saw a thread saying to purchase the newest software (that was posted a few years ago) I paid 4.95 for the software and it's still saying it can't be updated.  Am I just SOL??

    The 1G iPod can only go as high as 3.1.3. The 1G does not have an internal speaker or volume buttons on the upper left edge.

  • My wifi goes down at least once a day and I have to unplug the time capsule and reboot it and then it works fine.  Any idea why this is happening/what I can do to fix it?

    My wifi goes down at least once a day and I have to unplug the time capsule and reboot it and then it works fine.  Any idea why this is happening/what I can do to fix it?

    I was having this problem while still using Mavericks -- it started after a Mavericks update last spring.  During the initial Yosemite beta runs over the summer, it seemed to be fixed, but after the official launch in October, I had all sorts of problems keeping connected.  Its gotten a little better, but still happens to at least one of my devices every day.  Weird that we still cannot figure out why the connection keeps dropping on some devices, but not others, and then the next day, one of the devices that didn't disconnect the previous day will disconnect, but the ones that did disconnect, stay connected.  It's just sloppy, poorly written software for technology that isn't working the way it should.  If you turn off Continuity and Handoff on all your devices, you will probably see that everything stays connected.  With those turned off on all devices, TC stayed connected to everything for over a month.  The day I turned Continuity back on, all the problems started again.  It had something to do with the bluetooth version being used, the wifi routine, and Apple's AirPlay technology not quite getting along with each other.

    Try from a computer.   You may have to reset your password.  If you can't get the comfirmation email then you can use the secret question.  Once you can log in then you change the the email address.

  • HT204022 I have iPhoto, iOS, etc. all up to date.... however my iPad, iPhone, and Mac PhotoStreams all contain different pictures and aren't the same. Any ideas why? I'd rather not reset the whole thing if I don't have too.

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....
