Help! My iPad 3 is stuck with the Apple Logo, and iTunes is unable to detect my iPad.

I have a iPad 3 Wifi+Cellular. I just turned it on, and it's been on the Apple logo for 1 hour! What should I do? I thought I should go to iTunes, to see if I can do anything. But iTunes is unable to detect the iPad! I've tried all my USB ports, numerous times, and it is not working! What should I do? (I think I'm out of Warranty).

First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons

    The typical fix if the progress bar totally freezes - meaning no movement at all for more than 20 minutes - and iTunes will no recognize the device - is to try to put the iPad into recovery mode. That is explained here.

    However, don't jump the gun. Keep an eye on the progress bar and if it is moving at all - even very slowly - let it go for a while. I'm updating my iPod touch first and the progress bar is moving but very slowly.

    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.

  • My iPad is stuck with the apple logo!!! Please help me

    My iPad is stuck with the apple logo. it just shut off, and I turned it on, and the apple logo won't go away. sometimes the screen goes black, and then the apple logo shows back up. Help!!!!!!

    Have you tried rebooting your iPad?
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 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.
    If that does not work, you can try restoring your iPad iOS Software.
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software - Support - Apple
    Make sure that you read the article all the way through and pay attention to the last part that talks about using recovery mode.

  • My ipad is stuck on the apple logo and wont return to the home screen. I plugged it into my itunes but I don't know what to do from there. Can someone please help?

    Hi, I'm having trouble with my Ipad 2. I was recently playing a game and my ipad just shut off on me. Then when I turned it back on it was stuck on the Apple Logo and it won't go to the home screen at all. I plugged it in my itunes but I don't know what to do from there. I left it charged hoping the apple logo would dissappear but it didn't and now for some reason the battery is always dead.  I really need help. Does anybody have any suggestions? Please.

    Did you try rebooting the iPad? You will need to have some battery power for this.
    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.

    Reset 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. Maybe this will let the iPad reboot and then you may need to restore again but see if this helps to start the iPad first.

  • What will i do with my ipad stuck on white apple logo and itunes not recognized it. i'll always try to press and hold both the home botton and sleep/wake button but nothings happen.

    what will i do with my ipad 2 ios 5.0.1 stuck on white apple logo and itunes not recognized it. i'll always try to press and hold both the home botton and sleep/wake button but nothings happen.

    if that dose not work then you can always put it into DFU mode by connecting to your computer and holding down the home button and sleep/wake button for excatly 10 seconds and then relesing the sleep/wake button and keep holding down the homebutton till iTunes tells you it has detected an iPad in recovery mode then just do a restore

    My iphone 4 screen is stuck with the apple logo on it and i have tried holding the home button and power button down for 20 seconds but nothing is happining , meaning the phone isnt loading up has anyone got any idea what the problem could be ?

    Plug the phone into your computer via the USB cable and open iTunes.
    Once you have connected the phone to your computer and opened iTunes, hold the home and sleep buttons down until it goes blank.  You are now in DFU mode.  Click the restore button in iTunes.
    Note: You will lose all data.  You can restore from a backup if you previously saved one.

  • Brand new IPhone stuck with the Apple logo

    My phone is brand-new, bought it yesterday together with two more for my sisters, and it asked for an update. After it finished updating, it told me to connect to Itunes, which I did. As soon as I connected it to Itunes, the only option left was to restore. I waited 10 minutes for it to restore until it came to the finishing point, but in the end, there was an error, and since then, my phone has been stuck with the apple logo on it. I tried turning it off by pressing the sleep button and the home
    button at the same time until it turns off, but when I turn it on, the apple logo comes back and stays. I left the apple logo on the entire night to see if it would go off, but the apple logo only came off when the battery ran out. When I started charging it this morning, the only thing that happened was the apple logo coming on again and staying. I tried restoring it twice yesterday and in those two times there was an error. My sister also had an update and her phone didnt ask to be connected to Itunes, it just turned on and had a start up as if it was the first time she was turning it on. I don't know whether the problem is my computer or the phone... Can anyone help me?

    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 iPhone fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Stuck with the apple logo screen

    So my iPhone is stuck with the apple logo. I've restarted my iPhone several times and reinstalled itunes. It just stays with the apple logo and when I plug it into itunes it freezes itunes. I can't restore my iPhone, because it's not coming up in iTunes. It's been stuck at the screen with the apple logo for more then an hour. I can reset, but it never finishes loading.
    I'm hours away from an ATT or apple store.

    This problem happened to me. You have a "bricked" phone. The problem was addressed in the thread "Bricked iphone after the 10th sync". Sorry I don't know how to link to it, but it's in this forum, just another topic. I was able to resolve my problem following the fix given by "jsanders74". Good luck.
