  • HT201210 I was downloading IOS to my ipad 2 and now my ipad is stuck and cannot be used. HELP?

    I was downloading IOS 6.1 to my ipad and now my ipad is stuck and cannot be used. HELP.
    It shows on the screen that it is plugged into itunes.
    How do I get my ipad working again?
    How can I download IOS 6.1 succesfully?
    Thanks

    Double tap the home button and find the mail app. Drag the app up from the multitasking display to close the app. Then reboot the iPad and try again.
    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.

  • Using iPad2 (e.g. using safari) and screen blanks and apple logo appears.  Happened 3x today.  Does this mean my iPad2 is defective?  Thanks from a novice

    My iPad2 recently started to what appears to be a reboot - screen blanks and Apple logo appears.  It has happened 3 times today with the screen just remaining 'blank' for several minutes before the logo appeared.  Any ideas???  Do I have a defective iPad2?  Any help appreciated.

    If it were me, I would back up the ipad, restore it to the factory settings and then restore it from the backup.
    That will give you back your settings and data, but will hopefully eliminate whatever is funky with the OS.

    do you know this problem?

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    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

  • My iPad screen freezes and will not switch off for at least 5 mins?

    my ipad screen freezes and will not turn off or  function for at lease  5 mins then just closes down

    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!

  • HT201412 My ipad went blank and will not restart

    My ipad went blank and will not restart.  What can I do?

    Could be the battery is completely drained?
    Use the charger that came with the iPad. Plug the charger into a known good wall outlet and connect your iPad. Let it charge for at least an hour. Then, while still connected to the charger, reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the iPad starts, fine. Let it continue to charge until the battery is at 100%. If it does not charge make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

    Using iPhone/iPad Recovery Mode

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    Not easy if vital information is missing. Sometimes it seems like people are using the internet the first time...
    What version of Indesign?
    What OS? "Rights" sounds like Windows
    What is happening when starting it?
    If Windows, where was it installed?
    If Windows, do you have admin permissions?

  • My 2007 iMac 24" now retired as working machine but serves as entertainment center for granddaughters and me, 'attacked' while on Youtube and cannot start up. In need of first aid to get it going again...

    True, it's retired as working machine but serves as family entertainment center.

    At this point you have 2 choices.
    Erase the disk entirely and reinstall (you will lose everything that is not backed up)
    Take it to an Apple Store (you will probably lose everything that is not backed up)
    I believe this is a hardware (HDD) issue and would expect a Store trip to be the best approach, sorry.
