HT1414 ipad is completely black. Cannot turn on.

My iPad is completely dead. It was charging overnight, then tried to use it today and would not turn on.

Was it charging by being plugged directly into an electrical outlet, or was it plugged into a computer USB port.
If the latter, then this can actually drain the battery when the computer is in sleep mode.  Suggest you plug directly into a wall outlet and wait minimum 20 minutes (perhaps as much as an hour) and see if it will turn on then.
If it was plugged directly into an electrical outlet overnight - did you hear the charging noise when you first plugged it in?  If not plug the charger into an outlet that you have confirmed works.  THEN plug it into your iPad.  Now wait 20-60 mins and see if you have better luck.

  • IPad goes completely black while using it, comes back in a few seconds

    iPad goes completely black while using it, comes back in a few seconds battery doesn't hold charge either

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe

  • HT204053 My ipad homescreen hang, i cannot turn it off either, what should i do?

    My ipad homescreen hang, I cannot turn it off and all apps are not showing just the wallpaper.what do I need to do?

  • My ipad has completely blacked out but the sounds still work what can i do

Can you guys or gals please help me out by answering my question of how to make my ipad have color again and not be completely black.

    Try to reset it. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot (presuming it does)

    IPAD is not responding, cannot open any aps.

    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.

  • My iPad cannot turn on without AC adapter

    Few week ago I can't turn on my iPad 2. When I press Home button or power button, the screen display charging logo. Then i plug my ipad 2 to AC adapter and i saw Apple logo. My i iPad turn on and the battery is about 70%. But after about 3 minutes, it automatically reset. I've tried to connect the device to itunes but itunes cannot recognize my ipad and I also cannot turn it on when connecting to PC. Anyone can help me?

    YOu can try a reset. HOld down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
    If that doesn't work you can go to the more extreme measure of doing a restore, which is pretty much reinstalling the firmware. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Read that for more info.
    If neither of those work, then you may want to make an appointment at your local apple store because it's possible your battery needs to be replaced or that there is something wrong with the sensors or 'guts' of the ipad.

  • My iPod Touch Is Completely Black Or Shut Off What Do I Do To Get It Back On?

    Well I left The Room For A Sec And When I Cam Back it Was Completly Black Or turned Off Or Somthing Like That Iv Tryed Charging It And Holding Buttons And Also When I Plugged It Into My Lab Top iTunes Didnt Reconize It And Iv Tryed Callin Tech Support But Sense Its A Holiday No One I There!!! Has Any One Else's iPod Touch Done This To them If So What Did You Do To Get If Working Again??

    First, you might consider posting in the correct forum.  This is the iPhone forum.
    Have you held the home button and on/off button down together until the apple logo appears (this can take upwards of 30 seconds)?  This is often the first step in getting a stuck iOS device to work.

    Try this  - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    Since updating my iPad 2 to IOS6 and activating my icloud for backup, my iPad has permanently locked. Message on screen is "iPad Not Backed Up". I click ok but no response. Cannot turn power off and cannot restore via my pc itunes. What are my options?

    Thanks to everyone who responded and related subject helped. Holding the home button and power button simultaneously for 10-15 seconds does unlock the screen. I can now use my ipad again. However, a futher problem has arisen since updating to IOS6 and activating icloud at same time, Although not sure if its related. The problem is that when connected to my PC the itunes message appears 'Cannot read ipad'. It instructs you to restore but keeps timing out after about 1 hour. This maybe internet issue but can't understand why itunes cannot read my ipad. May need to completely erase all content & reset. Or any other suggestions why this has happened?
