Ipad 2 apple symbol on screen and won't turn on and shut down wheel is on and charging beep makes sounds

My daughter was on the Ipad 2 last night , don't know what she was playing, and she said it was shutting down.. it had a good amount of charge in it.. Now it has the apple icon and the shut down wheel on. The wheel starts out dim then gets bright and then goes off.. then repeats... I have tried rebooting it with holding the home screen while holding down the shut off button. That doesn't reboot, when it comes back on just shows the the apple icon, the the shut down wheel comes back, I am charging the ipad now and I hear a sound, like when you plug in your charger.  how can i get it to turn back on?

  • Ipod has itunes symbol on screen and charge cord but won't allow me to get on screen.

    I went to restore my Ipod to original setting and after it turning off and coming back on, It shows itunes symbol and white charge cord coming up from bottom and it wont allow me to get off that screen. Even after turning off and back on. As well as it won't allow me to sync any of my music before or now. It says, no device detected or connected. Please help...

    - The iPod's screen is telling you you need to connect the iPod to the computer and restore via iTunes.
    - Try rebooting the computer and resetting the iPod and then restoring.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

  • Mac book air won't turn on after shutting down unexpectedly

    I was surfing the internet, when it all of a sudden went black and shut off. No warnings or anything.
    The light on the charger no longer lights up. I have tried all the tips on apple website and nothing works.
    Any suggestions?

    Try resetting your SMC.
    Resetting the SMC of an Intel-based portable Mac with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Note: This will not delete any data.
    The SMC is responsible for controlling various system functions. None of your data will be deleted by resetting the SMC.
    Shut down the computer by going to Apple () > Shut Down…
    Select Shut Down or allow the computer to shut down automatically.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter into a power source and then connect it to your Mac if you have not already done so.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift (⇧), Control (⌃), and Option (⌥) keys and the Power Button at the same time.
    Release the (left side) Shift (⇧), Control (⌃), and Option (⌥) keys and the Power Button at the same time.

  • MBP won't turn off after shut down

    My MacBook Pro with upgrade to Leopard is staying hot after shut down. I am having to remove the battery to make sure, otherwise I have one red hot laptop when I open up my backpack. Is this another Leopard issue?

    Good morning,
    No, this isn't an issue I experience with Leopard...
    I'd try [Resetting your MacBook Pro System Management Controller (SMC)|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319] and see if that solves your issue.
    Hope this helps! 

  • HP Pavillion 17 - Screen backlight does not turn off after shut down

    The screen stays lit up white after shutdown is complete.  No lights appear on the power button or any of the keys.  Just a white screen.  Any ideas what could cause this?  Laptop works perfectly when powered on.  Thanks, Susan

    Hi @suzygf78,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that your display is still after your computer is shutdown?! I am happy to help you with this. It would be best to get the full product number and OS version. Please read the following documents if you need help in finding those.
    How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?
    Is the display you are describing the built in display or an attached 2nd display?
    As a start here are a few documents to start with that may help, but if it is the built in display I admit I am scratching my head a bit as it is a very weird issue.
    Resolving Problems with Notebook Displays (Windows 7 and Windows 8)
    Resolving Problems with the Brightness of the Display
    Diagnosing a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for Damage
    Please let me know if any of those proved helpful, or post the requested information and we will go from there.

  • Apple symbol flashing on and off

    Phone won't turn on and apple symbol flashing on and off

    Standard troubleshooting...
    1. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    2. Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    3. Remove apps from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
    - Press the home button when done.
    4. Restore with your backup.
    5. Restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it. (Try DFU Mode)
    6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

    Reinstall OS X.
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    OR
    Reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • Pro won't start.  Instead get a black screen and a beeping every 2 seconds. LIght at front right corner of keyboard flashes in sequence with beeping.

    Pro won't start.  Instead get a black screen and a beeping every 2 seconds.  Light at front right corner of keyboard flashes in sequence with beeping.

    If it is giving a single beep every two seconds, then it is not seeing any of the memory.  You could try taking the back off, remove the memory module and reinsert to see if that corrects the problem.  Or just take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs do that for you.
    If you are uncertain about working on the memory modules, you can find on-line videos for doing so at OWC, http://www.macsales.com where you can see the procedure for your year, make and model of MacBook Pro.

  • My Iphone 4S keeps flashing between the Apple logo, blank screen and sign in.  It will not let me sign in, nor can I power it off.  Help!

    My Iphone 4S keeps flashing between the Apple logo, blank screen and sign on screen.  It will not let me sign on or power off.  It started about 20 mins ago.  One of my friends started having the same issue at the same time.  How can I fix this?

    Hi Bucky16,
    If you haven't already done so, you may want to reset the iPhone:

    If the above does not resolve your issue, the next best step will be to restore your iPhone using a computer with iTunes:

    Hi I just upgraded software through iTunes then unplugged iPhone now it is stuck on the connect to intunes screen, it won't turn off and iTunes and my computer won't recognize my phone? Please help

    My phone is doing the same thing. My computer acknowledges that I have connected my iPhone 4, however, iTunes will no longer connect or sync to my iPhone 4. I have uninstalled iTunes, Bonjour and all Apple products from my pc. I have re-installed them back on. I have reset my phone. I have emptied my temp folder. I have done everything. If my iPhone cannot update and sync with iTunes then I may as well get another phone from somewhere else. I am disappointed that I cannot resolve this issue.
    Rebeccaspe31, were you able to resolve your issue? If so how?
