Ipad 2 keeps restarting

Ipad 2 restarting when connected to charger, when not connected it´s dead.
It dies before i can reset it, every time it restarts it´s "on" less time.
I managed to delete and reset all settings and files but dies before I can configure.
When i connect it to the computer to use iTunes it´s dead.
I really dont understand how this happened, I haven´t upgraded any software or apps recently.
It has always had good batterytime, I use it daily and charge it every other day.
I tried to hold the "homebutton" and after a minute "connect to iTunes" appear but this only
works with the charger connected, when i transfer the usbcable from the charger to the computer it dies insantaniously.
What´s the problem?

Hello Lily,
It sounds like your iPad will only turn on when connected to your charger. I would be concerned about this too.
I found some steps you can take to address an issue like this. The steps reference an iPhone, but the same steps will apply to an iPad experiencing the same issue (you can skip any steps that you cannot perform or have already taken):
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 15 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.

You need to restore iOS on your iPad.

Why is my ipad keep restarting almost every 5 minutes and also why is the screen not rotating.

Nobody here can answer a question like that. Try rebooting your iPad and see if that helps.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Anyone know of a fix after updating the last ios...ipad keeps restarting or won't stay on. Very aggravating.

Have you tried resetting your iPad? I don't have a lot of confidence that it will work for you, but it's an easy thing to try and a good place to start.

If that doesn't help, you should probably restore the iOS software. You may even need to use recover mode. Both are covered in this in article.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

My IPAD keeps restarting a few minutes after booting up. It keeps doing it again and again, after the same period of time. Grateful for any help!

If the above doesn't work, force iPad into Recovery Mode.
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

Have you try a reset?
Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

Why does my iPad keep restarting at midnight?

My iPad keeps restarting itself at midnight. It doesn't matter what program is running.

Hey terrieil,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPad is restarting while you are using it. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

After upgrading to IOS 7 my iPad keeps restarting - it is now unusable.

After upgrading to IOS 7 my iPad keeps restarting. I mostly use my iPad as an eBook reader and all I am trying to do is read a pdf in iBooks. I get about halfway down the page and the iPad screen goes black and I get the restart apple logo.
I have tried restoring the iPad back to factory settings and restoring my conent but issue keeps happening. My iPad has 57Gb capacity and 5Gb free space.
I need to get this fixed quickly as I rely on access to my pdf documents for work.

After upgrading to 7.1.2 (my Ipad had about 40% battery life left) my Ipad would constantly reboot.
I restored the Ipad back to factory setting and restored from back-up.
When this was done, much to my dismay, it still continued to reboot every 10-30 seconds.
I was pretty PO'd, so I plugged the Ipad into the wall and went to bed.
Next morning, the battery was fully charged and the Ipad no longer was rebooting !!!!
The only problem was that most of my APPs were grayed-out. So, I deleted each of the apps and reinstall them.
The Ipad is working great ... I can't explain it !!!! (only thing I can think of...I should have started to update with a full battery and/or with the charger plugged-in !

My ipad keeps restarting is it covered by apples 1 year warrenty?

my ipad keeps restarting and im going across my state to get it fix after support told me too. its not jailbroken and does not have water, fall, or scratch damage.

If it is faulty the warranty will cover it. Try Restart ipad : Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for iPad to restart (no data will be lost). See it that changes anything

My ipad keeps restarting over and over again and even it does not appear the home screen

my ipad keeps restarting over and over again and even it does not appear the home screen...............................how can i fix this.................
`

Try this - 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.)

Looking forward for your response!
This is an iPad user to user forum, so you are not addressing Apple.
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. If your computer/iTunes does not recognize the iPad, then the cable is probably bad.
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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
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.

Fourth generation iPad keeps restarting itself randomly

My brand new fourth generation iPad (Wi-Fi+Cellular, 32 GB) keeps restarting itself randomly. I did the iTunes restoring procedure 2 times, the second one I also delete completely everything from the device before, in order to install the iOS 6.1 on a surely "new" device. I also avoided the iCloud synchronization and just download a casual app in order to test the problem. The iPad restarts again and again. Any suggestion? Anyone had the same problem here? Please share your experience.
Tomorrow I'll have an appointment with the Genius Bar. Hope it would be useful.

TY Mark, hope they would really help me and not just give me a factory refurbished unit.
I paid full price for a new one so i should get a new one. I am an apple fan and expect excellent service, not jokes.
Anyone knows something about the causes of this behaviour?

IPad keeps restarting

I've had my iPad for less than two months and it keeps restarting itself when I'm on it. Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening or will I need to take it in to an Apple store?

Try to reset the iPad by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If still no luck, take it to the Apple Store or an Authorized Apple Service Provider to get it checked.
