IPad 1 not turning off.

I have iPad 1 and it won't turn off. I have tired holding down the off and home button and have also tired a restore but it will still not turn off, anyone any ideas please?

Swain-
Have you tried just holding the Sleep button for several seconds? That is the normal way to turn off the iPad instead of just putting it to sleep. After a few seconds, you should see an arrow to turn it off. To turn it back on, hold the Sleep button until the Apple logo appears.
Out of desperation, I might try putting the iPad into recovery mode. I do not recall how to do it, but a search should find it.

Is there away of having the iPad NOT turn off when on power?

i am trying to show a clock and countdown timers for exams but after 10 mins the screen turns off, i have found a setting for auto lock and change it to " never but it keeps happening. Running ios 7
Didnt have this issue before the update

Go into the iPad's settings.
Choose General settings from the list on the left side of the screen.
You will find the Auto-Lock setting midway down the list. This setting allows you to choose how long the iPad waits before going to sleep.
Choosing the Auto-Lock feature will bring you to a new screen with the option to auto sleep after 2, 5, 10 or 15 minutes. You can also turn the feature off completely by choosing Never.

I have locked myself out of my iPad and can not restore unless I go onto the iPad and turn off FindMyiPhone, how do I sort this out?

After installing iOS7 I was prompted to make a passcode, I did so and stupidly forgot and now continually am disabling my iPad, ways in which I have read you can sort this is restoring your iPad, however I can not restore without iTunes telling me I need to go onto the iPad and turn off FindMyiPhone! How else can I sort this? It is logged into my apple account and everything! This is an iPad 2 also ASAP help!!

Hello shanefox,
This can be done by logging in at iCloud.com and removing your device via the Find My iPhone web interface.

I set up Keychain and do not have access to the telephone I gave. Now I can no longer connect my ipad to my windows computer. I can not turn off Keychain...it is awaiting authorization from the SMS on the telephone I do not have access to.

I set up Keychain and do not have access to the telephone I gave. Now I can no longer connect my ipad to my windows computer, itunes does not automatically open when I plug in the USB. I can not turn off Keychain in my ipad since authorization is pending awaiting the code sent by SMS, which I can not get. Can someone advise how to get rid of Keychain. Should I cancel my icloud account?

I appreciate your help.
Have reset the ipad, but that changed nothing. I can not turn off Keychain, iit remains "pending approval". Probably, the only thing to do is to close my icloud account...which I hate to do since there is a lot of data saved there. But, I am unable to back the ipad up on my Windows 8 computer because itunes no longer opens when the ipad is attached.
Oh well...computers are computers and it is impossible to cover 100% of the situations.
Keychain iss not the best app for someone who lives in 3 different countries.
Thanks

HT204370 I paused the movie download but did not turn off my IPad. When I returned to restart, it has said "waiting" for over an hour.

I paused the movie download but did not turn off my IPad. When I returned to complete the download, the "waiting" message has been on the screen for over an hour. How can I complete the download?

I recommend purchasing lion on a USB drive at Apple Store. This will avoid all of the downloading hassles.
Also, be sure you clone your hard drive first. A lot of people want to go back to Snow Leopard and if you choose to do this cloning will make the process very easy.

What do I do when iPad 3 does not turn off?

What do I do when my iPad 3 does not turn off?

Try a device reset:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Your statement makes no sense at all. Please clarify.

Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears. See if that clears the glitch.

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

My iPad is not turning off. What can I do?

My iPad is not turning off. What can I do? Tried to find something about in the internet and has found nothing.

I really don't know what else to try except for restoring the iPad - or letting the battery totally drain, recharge the iPad and then see if it will work.
The problem with letting the battery drain is I would be afraid that you would not be able to turn the iPad on. However, usually when you recharge the iPad, it turns on again by itself.
Anyway, in the meantime, until you can get this resolved - you don't have to turn the iPad off for my reason other than to restart for troubleshooting purposes. If the iPad will recharge and if it goes to sleep OK, there is no reason to have to turn it off.
When exactly happens when you try to reboot? Does the red slider at appear at all?

I can not turn off my ipad.

Try holding the power and home buttons for ten to fifteen seconds until the apple appears. If still bad, try a restore from within the computer&itunes.

My 1st generation iPad will not turn off and I have performed the suggested fix. What's next?

My iPad will not turn off. I have done the off/sleep key home button procedure.

Just to be perfectly clear, when you reset the iPad by hod,ing down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen, that is a way of resetting the system and restrating the device. If you want to shut down, you still have to hold down on the power button until the slider appears and then slide to the right to shut the iPad off.
IS this what you are doing and if so what happens when you try to shut down? Describe what happens in detail.

My Ipad mini is not turning off with the botton neither with the cover. It is not also turning on when I open the cover. Please, what I have to do.

If the cover you bought is not a legitimate apple cover than you may be having the same issue I had.
The one I purchased has a top cover swivel, if you spin it around( meaning the top case cover)
The magnet will return to the correct spot and it will work again. It is only located at one end of the case.
Hope this might help:)

Will not: rotate screen, camera will not work, iPad will not turn off, sound on side.
