I have a generation 1 IPad, having trouble coming on after charge.

I have  a generation 1 IPad, everytime the kids let it die I have trouble getting it to start back up. I charge it for hours and when I come back to it the low battery image comes up. If I unplug it the needs charged image comes up. This has been going on for the passed  six to ten months. I have been able to keep trying both pluged in and unpluged to get it to come on. I try just the power button, both power and home for 30 sec. plug it in to the computer and do it. everytime I have been able to get it to come on. When it does come on it is fully charged. It runs great for a Gen 1 that is 3 years old. I tell the kids to make sure they are charging it and not lettting it die, but they are kids.  So again today I have a die IPad and everything I try is not working. Any ideas on how I can get this thing to work and maybe not have to go through this again.

Hello, BOBBRLT. 
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Make sure the device is being charged via an Apple branded cable and USB power adapter.  If these are being used to charge the device with no results, see the information in the article below.

  • New iPad having trouble connecting to Internet via Wifi.

    I have had all 3 iPads and I got the new one on Friday, however starting today I have had a lot of trouble connecting to the Internet via Wifi. I could not connect at home nor at school where I have had no problems before with my previous iPads, and all my friends are having not having any problems connecting to the Internet with their iPad 2's. Is there something wrong with the new iPads?
    I have a 3rd generations iPad 16GB Wifi only.

    Then you may have a defective iPad  If you can show it to an Apple Store Genius, you may get a replacement if the Genius can not fix it.
    If there is no Apple Store near you, look for an Apple Authorized Repair Center.  There may be one in your city.  <Apple Authorized Repair Centers>
    To continue on your own, take a look at <Troubleshooting WiFi Networks and Connections>.

  • Anyone having trouble launching apps after 10.8.2 update?

    After installing the 10.8.2 update on my 15" Mid-2009 MBP, I'm unable to successfully launch many of my applications, including Adium, Chrome, System Preferences, Mail and a host of others. Some apps never present their main window; others (like Adium and Chrome) show their initial windows but seem to be unable to connect to the internet. Has anyone seen this issue?
    I checked Console and nothing seems to be obvious in the logs.
    Thanks,
    - Chris

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Try the action that you're having trouble with again. Post any messages that appear in the Console window – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    PLEASE DO NOT INDISCRIMINATELY DUMP THOUSANDS OF LINES FROM THE LOG INTO A MESSAGE. If you do that, I will not respond.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • I have the ipod touch 4th generation and im having trouble with my regular home wifi....it says i have it but when i go on itunes or anything it says can not connect to itunes or youtube or my textnow app....WHAT DO I DO????!! help!

    i went on vacation and got wifi there....i came home last night and saw that i could not get any messages from my textnow or get on youtube or skype or facebook or anything that includes wifi....ive tried everything including turning it off, turning my wifi off, trying to join a new network, not using it for a day, everything!!! nothing will work for me!!! im wondering if it has to do with more than one devise on our wifi...we only have two ipod touches and a ps3....any advise??  i would appreciate it....THANKS!!!

    The way I did it was I got the free app sync:stream from the App Store and then added my ipod to my ps3's Bluetooth devices. Then went to audio settings and set output and input to 'Skaggs iPod' you then open the app and it will be listed under music as a media service. You then go to all tracks and click copy (press triangle) it will then begin to copy all of your songs onto your ps3 via Bluetooth. I haven't tried but I assume the same can be done with photos. I hope this was helpful reply if you have any questions :) good luck

  • I have a generation 3 Ipad  and it fully died so I put it to charge. It's been flickering on and off between the apple symbol my home page for 2 seconds and the screen going back to black with the loading symbol. What should I do?

    I've tried to factory reset it but it not let me even get that far

    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

  • Just got a new router, now iPad having trouble staying connected to wireless

    It seems the wireless connection is sjakey on iPad. At home I never had any problems until recently after getting a new wireless router for the house. iPad sees the wireless network, connects, but often disconnects. Signal strength is fine, but it won;t hold. Any suggestions?
    At my friends house, it sees his network and connects, but only works with email. Safari doesn't work or any app that requires wireless connection.

    Shawn is speculating. None of us know if 2.0.3 will be released in September or indeed ever. 
    Can I ask what type of encryption you are using? WEP, WPA or WPA? 40bit WEP needs a five ASCII character (or ten hex) password to work properly with all devices and 128bit WEP needs a thirteen ASCII character (or twenty six hex) password. It is much more preferable to use WPA though as you can use a password of any length and WPA can't be hacked nearly so quickly as WEP.
    Hope that helps.
