Brand new iPad dead out of box

I have just bought my hubbie an iPad 2 from Amazon for his birthday, but on taking it out of the box on the day find it is dead. Tried charging, no response. Doesn't respond to on/off button. Any hope?

1. Charge it for at least 1 hour
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Brand new IPad 3 out of the box - set up problem with Apple ID

    Brand new iPad 3 out of the box - set up problem. It says my Apple ID (email address) is already being used. I reset the password successfully but still says I need another Apple ID. Why won't the ID recornize me?

    Open current iTunes on your computer. Connect iPhone to the computer with the Lightning USB Cable. Hold both the Home and Power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes the iPhone in Recovery Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes. If still problem, make Genius reservation or set up Sevice and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty.

  • Brand new (like right out of box) 4g won't update

    Just bought a new 32gb iPod 4g (to replace my 3g that was just stolen) and when I try to update it to the latest software. I keep getting error code 3194. Running iTunes 10.4 as well.

    Error 3194: Resolve error 3194 by updating to the latest version of iTunes. "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in the updater logs confirms this is the root of the issue. For more Error 3194 steps see: This device is not eligible for the requested build above.

  • Brand new ipad stuck in recovery mode with error 21

    Brand new ipad just out of box starting setting up and now its stuck in recovery mode and keeps giving error 21 - tried turning off firewalls as suggested and another PC... nothing working... is it a complete turkey or is it me?

    Sorry I can't help with your issue. Just wanted to point out that it's not a good idea creating multiple posts on the same topic as it only serves to cause confusion, duplicate answers and divides responses between threads.

  • Brand new iPad Mini Retina- dead out of box

    Just got a brand new ipad Mini retina and it won't turn on. Have tried all kind of reset button combos and nothing. Any suggestions or is it really dead? Have an appt at Apple Store in the morning, but would love to resolve it before then.

    It's possible that its battery is totally dead. Try plugging it in and let it sit for an hour or two and see if there are any signs of life. Even if it does come back, I would still keep that appointment and get it checked out because normally iPads have a charge when you unbox them.

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

  • My brand new IPad won't connect to my wi-fi box.

    My brand new IPad won't connect to my wi-fi box. I have been entering the required 26-character code (this is in France) over and over, phoning my supplier but to no avail. I have also checked bluetooth connection as some-one suggested in a discussion and its ok. I'm at a loss ! Can anyone help ? Thanks !

    Turn Bluetooth off in Settings > General > Bluetooth
    Having Bluetooth enabled while using Wi-Fi can cause interference.
    Now tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Restart the iPad. Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi. Make sure Wi-Fi is switched on.
    If it still won't connect, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • Brand New iPad 3 has a jiggly screen and black boxes across the screen in different apps

    My mother purchased a brand new iPad 3 about 1 week ago.  The screen has begun to shake while she is in the apps.  (This is not the shaking that icons do on when you hold an app down so you can rearrange.)  When this happens the screen will go blank when her hand is near it and reappear when she moves it away.  Also, in some apps, I have experienced this in the App Store and Facebook, black boxes cover the screen so that you cannot see what is behind them.
    We have tried shutting it down completely, but that doesn't seem to be a fix.
    I have been searching for others with this problem and haven't found any.  Help would be appreciated.  Given the sporadic nature (but often enough to be a bother), I'm hesitant to go to the Genius Bar for fear it wouldn't do it then. 

    I've had the same problem with Big Black squares covering the screen. And a few times the screen has split vertical in the middle and pushed everything in the on half a little down, making it very difficult to read text as the lines was cut in half.
    I first experienced it in Mail, and then in Safari. I noticed that it is only covering content, not the App bar and When I scrolled down, the boxes were staying On the spot On the page. I figure it must be a software problem as it moves alting with the rest of the content, so I tried uenig Chrome instead, but yesterday the same ting happened.
    I have tryed to take a screen dump, but it gets completely black
    Its not warm When the problem occours.
    Anyone with a solution?

  • What is the white horizontal line and red vertical line on my brand new ipad mini?

    Bought a brand new ipad mini 2 for my sons Christmas, took it out the box and it was during the set up process, ie entering his iTunes and icloud account, a white horizontal line and a red vertical line appeared on the screen and is there all the time now.  Have tried switching off and on and resetting, but it is still there.  Any ideas??

    Hi Tolmivooz,
    So the lines didn't appear until you were into the setup?
    Does the orientation of the lines change when you rotate the screen?
    Thanks for trying the restart and reset. Please see if a restore helps.
    Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If you see lines, missing sections, discoloration, or poor image quality
    Try to restart your device. If you can't restart, reset your device.
    If restarting or resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
    Best,

  • Brand new iPad Mini Retina won't charge when its connected to my PC

    I just opened up my brand new iPad Mini Retina and attempted to plug it into my PC and set it up. The iPad quickly recognizes my PC, briefly displays the charge symbol then immediately displays "not charging." I have attempted to plug the iPad into the wall, and it charges just fine. All the cables I'm using are straight out of the box which I bought right from the Apple Store so I know its not any of those. My laptop is fully charged and also plugged into the wall, so I know its not my computer. I also double checked everything by plugging my iPhone 5 into my computer (with the new iPad lightening cable) and it charges/syncs just fine. Im stumped, please help me fix my brand new iPad Mini Retina.

    I know you said PC, for for others that have an iMac with USB 3 ports, they can put out extra power to charge an iPad.  (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4049?viewlocale=en_US)

  • Brand new iPad 2 32GB with 3G. When I hooked it up to my computer, the capacity bar had 11.4GB full in the "other" category even though i haven't synced anything yet.

    Brand new iPad 2 32GB with 3G. When I hooked it up to my computer, the capacity bar had 11.4GB full in the "other" category even though i haven't synced anything yet. What does the "other" category consist of and how can I fix this?

    The iPad was sealed in the box when I got it. It had the plastic screen protector wrapped all around it and when I powered it on for the first time it displayed the "connect to iTunes for setup" message displayed. The only other thing I can think of is if the person I bought it from had ordered it through Verizon on and the iPad was set up on a number on his pre-existing verizon account. My question is should I just keep using it and consider myself lucky? Since there is no way for Verizon to charge me for the usage because I never signed a contract. I realize that if it is on the account belonging to the person I bought it from, they will eventually figure this out and shut it off. But I might as well use it in the meantime right?

  • Brand new iPad 2 got scratches how to claim?

    I just bought a brand new iPad 2 today. I open the box on the spot and found out deep scratches. Would Apple responsible to replace a new? I complaint on the spot with Apple Premium Reseller. I from Malaysia, please give me your advise. Many thanks

    This should be the responsibility of the reseller to handle. If you opened the iPad in the store and found scratches, you should have refused the unit and made them give you a different one. I would suggest you talk to the store management/owner and calmly and politely insist on an exchange.
    If the store refuses to exchange your iPad, you can try calling Apple Malaysia at 1-800 803-638 and asking to speak with someone in Customer Relations, and if you can contact a Customer Relations representative, explain the situation and ask if there's anything he or she can do to help.
    Good luck and regards.

  • My brand-new iPad Mini has Siri unresponsive. This happens quite frequently and I find it very frustrating. I have a strong Wi-Fi connection. Has anyone had this problem and fixed it?

    Let me also say that this has been functioning this way out of the box...this is not new or a result of cookies or a full cache.
