I tried to charge my iPad Air and when I plugged it in the charge symbol would show up, but my iPad wouldn't actually hold the charge. What should I do?

I tried turning the device off and on and I even reset it. I also tried to charge it overnight but that didn't work either. I let the battery run out and I've tried charging it after but it still doesn't work. I tried four different wall sockets and tried charging with my computer with no luck. Even when the device is plugged in it won't turn on all the way. The Apple logo appears then it shuts off, but it does this repeatedly as if it forever resetting (this only happens when plugged in).

The genius at the Genius Bar ended up replacing my iPad Air with a new one. It was a quick visit which made me happy, but I wish my replacement iPad had an engraving like my original one.

    Is your iPhone not showing up in iTunes sidebar, or is iTunes not just launching automatically?
    The things that you can check are:
    1) Launch iTunes manually
    2) Restart or reset your iPhone (http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281)
    3) Check your cable including disconnecting and reconnecting it on bot the phone end and the computer USB end.
    4) Reboot your computer
    5) As a last resort, take it to the Apple Store so they can check the hardware

    Why can't you use it? Do you get a warning? Does the application not launch? What happens? Answering these questions will help: FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?

    Hi Gammer576775!
    Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue with your iPod touch:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2771
    Will not power on, or will not turn on unless connected to power
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Connect the iPod touch to an Apple USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if the display turns on and…
    The home screen appears, the device should be working. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen: . Then disconnect the device from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears even after the iPod touch has charged for at least 20 minutes: See the "iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or low-battery image appears , continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPod touch did not turn on, reset it while connected to an Apple USB power adapter. If the display turns on, go to step 4.If the display remains black, go to the next step.
    Restore the device. Connect it to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes it and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPod touch. If the device doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring it, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPod touch resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring it did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • I dropped my macbook pro off my couch and when it landed it was shut, i opened it and it was on a grey sceen so i shut it down with the button and when i turned it back on it was kind of slow but not anymore i just want to know if i should be worried

    i dropped my macbook pro off my couch and when it landed it was shut, i opened it and it was on a grey sceen so i shut it down with the button and when i turned it back on it was kind of slow but not so much anymore. i quit all of my applications before i shut down and i noticed that when there are no more things t quit and i click "hide finder" its not grey anymore it still gives me the option to hide it when i dont need to, little things bug me and i just got this laptop, i just want to know if i should be worried

    I suggest you immediately make a backup of your data. You don't know if or when the computer will show some symptoms from the drop. You may want to, for piece of mind, take the computer to an authorised service center for assessment. No one here can assess any internal damage you may have done.

  • I was using my iPad and then I locked it and now the screen wont light up and when I plug it into iTunes it doesn't show up under devices

    I was using my iPad one morning looking at ebay, and then I locked it and came back and when I clicked the home button nothing happend. When I clicked the lock button nothing happened, when I plugged it into iTunes nothing happened and it didn't show uunder "Devices" on to side. Please help me I don't know how to fix this and it's been two days since it happened.

    I would then try and do a hard reset like Fernando recomends if that doesnt work you might need to try a DFU Restore.

  • I dont have a working home button and when i plug in my ipod 4g it will show an apple logo tuning on and off and it wont turn on

    I don't have working home button, but when i try to charge my iPod 4th gen it shows an apple logo that turns on and off and it wont let me turn on my iPod! How do i fix that?

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    Ignore the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    or
    http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                           
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:       
    Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Installs blootware on PC too
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    i erased my ipod in the setting because i wanted to restore my ipod and someone told me to delete it so i did and now its just a black screen and when i put it my pc it doesntt show up what do i do plz help

    Connect the iPod to a charging source and then try the will not turn on topic of:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    If you have a 2G iPod and did not have the iPod connected to a charging source it is likely that the battery fully drained before the erase was complete since it can take hours to do the delete.
