I was closing settings and my ipad froze...

I was closing settings and my iPad just froze... All i see is my settings half closed! I hear notifications but dont see them, i cant control my volume I cant turn it off. The battery goes down and time passes but its frozen?!? I can talk to siri, i asked if she could open safari but she said she cant... she cant face time or message either... im scared!! Im waiting till the battery dies then I turn it back on, but im not sure if this is right...
iPad 4 IOS 7.3 or 7.4
really miss my iPad!

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.

  • IPad keeps crashing. I was updating apps and my iPad froze. I had to do a hard restart for it to reboot. After it restarted back to the main menu, I went to swipe to unlock and it crashed and started restarting. Help!

    I've tried restoring it via iTunes. But I keep getting a error message 9 and 14.

  • Reset all settings and contants ipad.Now ipad is not open?why?on the screen always apple icon.

    reset all settings and contants ipad.Now ipad is not open?why/ on the screen always apple icon.

    Why would you do that? That's not how you deal with issues on your iPad, that's how you deal with problems on poorly designed Windows machines.
    Try this First...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

    - 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.

    You will have to go down the route of a Restore. Please read carefully the links therein with regard to using a different different computer from that with which you normally sync.
    [You may also have to put your device into Recovery Mode -  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 ]

  • I'm not sure I have iCloud on, and my iPad is showing the usb cord, along with the iTunes logo, only able to shut off. Turned it back on, same logo and usb cord. Help?

    I was trying to get the new iOS update, and the iPad froze. I've seen others who have the same problem, but they had the iCloud and things like that. I have a few stories on there, and I'm not about ready to lose them, as I was stupid enough to not transfer them to my computer or anywhere else.
    I went onto iTunes, hoping it would do that "restore iPad" thing, but so far, nope. I think it'd be fair to also inform that my iPad has been that was for three days, and I'm at a loss at what else to do. Can someone please, please help? Lord knows I need it...

    recovery mode
    open itunes on computer
    plug cable into computer not phone
    turn phone off
    hold home button and plug cable into phone.  do not release home button until an itunes graphic appears on device.
    look to computer shold have message about recovery mode click ok and restore

  • I was messing arouond with the general settings and I turned on the voice (under General settings) and when the screen timed out, I can't get it to take my 4 number passcode to get into my ipad.  Please help!  I'm totally locked out!

    I would appreciate any help I can get.  I was just messing around with the general setting on the ipad (64GB 3G...1st edition ipad), and did not realize that if I went under the general settings and changed the option to turn "on" the voice over, that it would require a double click on everything automatically.  I have my ipad set up to lock after 2 minutes on non-use, and when I tried to sign back in, it said that my 4 digit passcode was incorrect.  Then I tried to double click on each number, and that didn't seem to work.  The numbers 1-9 seemed to input ok, but a zero seemed to throw it off.  I have no idea if it has anything to do with it, but any help on getting back in to my ipad, I would greatly appreciate it, and I will be turning off that stupid voice over off as soon as I can.  I was just goofing off, and was not going to let it stay on permenantely, but I tried to go back under the settings immediately, and I couldn't easily find it, but if someone could help on just getting me back in....I would owe you a big favor!
    Thanks......freaking out in Mobile, AL!! 

    Touch or tap the field that you want to use/select and it should get a box around it ; then double-tap that field to activate/type it. Once you've entered your password you can do the same (i.e. touch to select, double-tap to activate) to gradually get into  Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and turn it off.
    So to enter your passcode you first need to tap the 'slide to unlock' button to hightlight it (it should get a box around it), then double-tap it to unlock it. Then for your passcode tap the digit that you want and it should get a box around it; then double-tap that digit to type it; and similar for the other three digits in your passcode.
    The manual (http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad) also that you should be able to switch voice-over off by connecting to your computer's iTunes :
    Turn VoiceOver on or off in iTunes: Select iPad in the iTunes sidebar. In the Options section of the Summary pane, click Configure Universal Access. Select VoiceOver, then click OK.
    So select Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary tab and set Seeing to Neither

  • I have an iPad 1st generation that no longer has working volume buttons but every once in a while the sound turns on.  So I know the speakers still work.  I have tried resetting all settings and made sure that my side switch was auto lock not auto mute.

    I have an iPad 1st generation that no longer has working volume buttons but every once in a while the sound turns on.  So I know the speakers still work.  I have tried resetting all settings and made sure that my side switch was auto lock not auto mute. I have tried the mystical swiping upward on the screen with 4 fingers to get some special sound menu (which I never succeeded in getting).  My headphone jack doesn't work all the time either so some times my kids can hear their games and sometimes they can't.  I am super frustrated at this point.  So any suggestions would be great.  Am I missing something basic or do we just have a soundless iPad now?

  • I upgraded my iPad 2 (3G) to the new OS8 and I can no longer connect to 3G.  All the settings on the iPad are correct.  It just shows that it's searching for a signal.  I'm in an area where my signal (pre OS8) was very good in strength.  Please help!
