IPad 2 keeps rebooting, Apple has no answers

My iPad 2 (3G, wifi, 64 gb) never been JB and was working fine with IOS 6.1.2......until I updated to IOS 6.1.3.
After upgrading IOS the iPad started to reboot randomly.
I followed all the suggestions but none worked: tried restart a few times, tried DFU mode, tried restore 3 times from backup, tried configure as a new iPad, drained battery to zero.
I called Apple, they suggested to bring iPad to a certified dealer or to Apple Store.
I did.
After 3 days their answer was "it is an hadware problem, the device cannot be repaired and should be substituted with a reconditioned one, for the amount of 250 Euros"
My answer: "Uh ??? An hardware problem ? After upgrading to new IOS ? The device is in perfect conditions can you check if the new IOS created the problem ?"
No they don't. Since the 1-year warranty is expired 5 months earlier they won't check the cause, they can only substitute the device for the amount mentioned.
What a deal !!!
They charge me 250 Euros for a giving me a used iPad, they get my iPad, the will certainly recondition it and they will certainly resell it to someone else.
All this for upgrading to new IOS 6.1.3 ?
What a deal !!!

Hello RwiKrrjl,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPad. I recommend following steps in the tutorial below to address an issue like this. I think the step to reset your iPad may be particularly useful in this scenario:
To reset iPad, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full tutorial here:

Recently purchased iPad mini keeps rebooting on set up

The previous owner of the iPad seems to have removed it off his iCloud account, on restoring the iPad it keeps rebooting when I get to the 'Find my iPad' page. What can I do about this?

Hey charnevb,
That sounds frustrating. I'm here to help. I recommend we run through the iPad troubleshooting assistant;
Apple - Support - iPad - iPad Troubleshooting Assistant
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/ipad/#section_1
If the iPad is still unresponsive, you may need to restore it. However, if you are unable to connect it to iTunes successfully, we'll need to do a recovery mode restore:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Please Note: Restoring your iPad in recovery mode will erase all of the contents. If you have a backup from before the issues began, you may be able to restore from it afterwards.
Thanks,
Matt M.

You do not need to offer and you should not offer payment payment for help on a user to user support forum. None of us participate here looking for payment. That is not how this forum works.
Have you tried restoring the device to factory settings? You should backup first, restore to factory settings and them restore the backup as described in here.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
Make sure that you read the last part of the article about using recovery mode to restore. You might need to use it.

Ipad 2 keeps rebooting

Hi, I tried updating my Ipad 2 with 6.1 and as soon as itunes got to start as a new or use a back up part, the ipad began rebooting over and over with just the apple logo showing. I have heard where people have went into the store and was told there was nothing apple could do and was offered a used ipad for $250. Now if the ipad was workng fine before the update attempt, why is it the ipad owner's problem? Seems to me that the update was the reason this has happened and Apple should be replacing the ipad or fixing the problem.
Any input from the forum would be great.

"I have heard where people have went into the store and was told there was nothing apple could do and was offered a used ipad for $250"
What're exactly have you heard this?
Have you tried a restore? Have you made an appointment with the Genius Bar? Did they tell you it would cost $250?

TS3274 my ipad just keeps rebooting itself. any suggestions?

I was using my ipad and accidentally ran the battery down completely to where it shut itself off. I then plugged it in overnight. Today it is continually rebooting itself. Any suggestions?

Hi there ckosht,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful. Note: The troubleshooting was writtin for the iPhone, but most of these steps still apply to the iPad.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
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 LCIs and 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?

My ipad mini keeps rebooting over and over again, even after a total reset. what to do?

Hello people,
I have my ipad mini since christmas 2012 and it was working like a charm.
But a few weeks ago it rebooted out of nowhere, and now it reboots like every 5 minutes average.
Sometimes it wont boot up properly and boot 3 times in a row, i sometimes even have to force it to reboot by holding the home+lock button.
I reset my ipad and then restored from a back up but it didn't stop.
Today I reset mty ipad again without restoring from anything, just blanc, like out of the box, installed facebook and youtube app and a few minutes later it rebooted again.
I think i've tried anything but maybe you can help me.
Bye from Holland

what can i do?
I puch at the same time the booton to stat an the central button now is turn in of
i need to recovery my ipad

I would take it to your nearest apple store and have them help you. You should be able to connect the ipad to your computer and by using itunes reset it to the factory defaults and this should return your ipad to the state it was in when you purchased it. If that is not what you are trying to do then can you provide some more details about your problem.

TS1398 My wifi signal in my iphone 4 is very poor it wasn't the same before. When ever I try to play video it stopes streaming. I hope apple has an answer for this.

I do not experience any problem browsing Internet or using social networks via wifi but whenever I play a video from YouTube or any other source it stopes streaming after playing 10 to 15 sec video, doesn't matter how close I am from the homehub or which Internet provider I am using. Recently I am experiencing that my phone became slow after installing the new iOS 6.1.2. Application takes time to open. Sometimes application closes on there won without any command. The key l board became slower. I wish I could get the previous version of iOS which was perfect for my iPhone 4.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

My iPad keeps rebooting since update...

My iPad 2 keeps rebooting since the new iOS 7.0.2 update, anyone else having the same issue? What can I do to fix it that won't involve me hooking it up to computer, as mine has kicked the bucket. It's brand new in bought it this summer, it still has over 76GB Of free space.

Try a reset .
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
No data is lost due to a reset.

Why does my iphone and ipad keep saying apple ID disabled but i can log in to the itunes store on my laptop?

i can't download or update free apps on my ipad or iphone. i can log in to my i-store account on my laptop and download stuff. when i try on the iphone or ipad i keep getting apple ID disabled message. i had to enter in my account and new password to get to this community site so the password is working. but when i enter the updated password on the iphone or ipad i keep getting...apple ID disabled. thanks

When you try to update the app, is the Apple ID that comes up the same as the Apple ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store?
Have you tried any troubleshooting steps? e.g. log in on another device, reset password etc.
