I was using my ipad 2 and got up to use the bathroom and 2 minutes later tried to use it and it was shut off and wont turn back on. What is wrong?
We really can't tell you what happened, but you can get your iPad up again, by rebooting:
Hold the power and home button simultaneously for at least 10 seconds (hold past the swipe to shut down) and when the Apple logo appears, let go of both buttons and your iPad will come back to life.

HT1688 my phone was fully charged and suddenly shut off but wont turn back on
my phone was fully charged and suddenly shut down and wont turn back on
Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps for unexpected power off issues found in the article below.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
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.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone 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 iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Issue not resolved
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

My ipod touch 4g doesn't work i didnt have charger at first and when my cousins came over i charged it with his it was full and the next minute it was empty. it gave me the warning sign. After tht it shut off and i ot my charger today and it wont turn on it also gave me a blue light which was kinda like an electric shock. Someone help plz
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- 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 have a life proof case my phone was in a hot tub for 30 sec and it turned its self off and wont turn back on what do i do ??
You can try putting it in bag with rice for about 4 or 5 days and the try to turn it on. The rice will help the drying of the iPhone. Do not attempt to turn it until you take it out of the rice.
If it does not work after the rice, then you know you have to replace the iPhone. This is very likely so after 30 seconds in a hot tub, but do give the rice a try. If you can get a hold of some silica crystals, a better drying agent than rice, that would be good too. -

^Hi. yesterday, after trying to study on my iphone 4, i accidentally clicked okay on something that poped up while flipping through notecards. it told me that it was "updating", i had my phone updated to ios7 but not 7.0.2.. i tried to shut if off to see if it would stop the update, because i didnt want it to do that. after a few minutes i turned it back on and it was still updating. it then shut off and a screen poped up telling me to plug my phone into iturnes. itunes recognized my phone and said it was in recovery mode and i would have to restore it. i have tried to restore it three times and nothing has happened. it will go all the way through the restore process, say it is finished, and then nothing will happen. my phone will not stay in DFU mode, i have tried for 20 minutes to get it to. i have even uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. i dont know what to do and i have been without a phone for alomost 24 hours. how do i get my phone back to normal? can i fix it or could at&t replace it? or do i have to take it to an apple store? Please help me.
Has your phone been jailbroken in the past? If yes, this could be a reason for not being able to finish the restore process.
If not, did you try to restore it on a different computer?
Also check these articles again:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

I dropped my iPhone 4S in the toilet. I dried it and shook out as much water as I could. I removed the SD card and put everything in a bowl of rice. It is still in there and everything appears to be working normally, but it won't shut off and the camera light stays on. I've tried the restart thing where you press and hold the pwr button and the home button. What should I do?

The icons on my Iphone 5 went very large and I am not able to reduce them to normal so I can use them.
The phone also will not shut off.Hi TofteKnitter,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If the icons on your iPhone seem large or magnified, it's possible that the "zoom" feature was enabled. This article explains how to check for and disable the feature:

When using Safari I have begun to notice this box appearing as I try to reach any website: "Safari is no longer responding because of a script on the webpage and then it lists what ever web page I have tried to reach. It then asks me if I want to "stop" the script or allow it to continue. I must "continue" it in order to reach my web page/ If I press "stop" it just keeps coming back and back and I can't continue. What is wrong with my computer or Sarari or both?

Does it mention "Slow Script? -
My iPad just shut off won't turn back on;(
Help! My iPad just shut off wont charge or come back on? Whhaaaaa
Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
Try this first - 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.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

my iphone 4S went black this morning after making a phone call and the phone will not turn on. what is wrong with my phone?
I switched the usb port and did the whole recovery holding of the buttons ect... And it worked, the computer detected the phone and i was able to click restore. However, the computer says preparing iphone for restore and it is still doing the restarting thing where the apple fades away and then comes back like it is restarting. If i can somehow get past this i will be able to go back to factory settings and resolve my problem, but this is where i am stuck.
