Ipad 2 stuck on apple logo and won't restore

Is there anyone that can help me, my son has an ipad 2 it worked fine, but all of a sudden apps started flickering and then went stuck on the apple logo, iv tried a hard reset and then eventually restored it several times via an iMac, but still stuck on  apple logo, does anyone know how to get it back working, or know how to fix it, thanks

Did you force it into recovery mode to restore it?

If you use Recovery Mode and had no success, them you should seek help at an Apple Store. Make an appointment at a Genius Bar and have the Apple Tech take a look at the iPad.

  • Ipad screen stuck on Apple logo and empty progress bar.

    Hello,
    My iPad screen is stuck on the Apple logo and empty progress bar. I have tried rebooting the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds but the screen doesn't change.
    The problem arose after I tried to reset the sttings on the iPad after an app wouldn't open.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

  • Ipad is stuck on apple logo and Restore didn't help

    Hi
    My Ipad 2 has been stuck on the apple logo for a few days!
    It was working fine except that safari wouldn't open (although i could use the internet via Chrome)
    My husband took it to an apple Genuis Bar (Westfield) and they got Safari to work.
    We switched off the iPad and then, the next day, when we switched it on (fully charged) it got stuck on the apple logo.
    There is also the start of a 'time bar' below the apple logo, but it doesn't advance at all.
    I have tried to restore the iPad twice from my pc (linking to the pc with the home button pushed down) and it has done a full restore (from my last pc back up of April)
    But it goes back to the stuck apple logo again!
    Please help! I am away and desperate to get it to work!
    Many thanks

    There really isn't anything else to try if restoring didn't help. I don't think this will work, but since you are desperate and restoring didn't work, reboot the iPad. You have nothing to lose.
    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.

  • IPad 2 stuck on apple logo and not charging but keeps rebooting without getting to the lock screed

    My iPad 2 ran out of battery last night while I was playing a game on it, it keeps attempting to reboot but only gets as far as the apple logo before powering off, displaying low battery screen and rebooting again,  it has been on it's charger all night, I have tried resetting it but it just starts up again, can anyone tell me how to force it to shut down so it can try to charge before i try it again? (I can't get to the lock or the screen and pressing the power button and the home button together won't work) I thought the charger/cable may have been the problem but no cable or charger seems to work.
    It doesn't seem to matter to it if it's connected to a computer or not

    I am having the exact same problem!! did anyone figure anything out with this?!?!?!
    it just keeps trying to reboot and it only gets as far as the logo then it'll reboot again!!

  • IPhone 3G Stuck at Apple Logo and won't charge from USB

    Help!
    My wife recently dropped her iPhone 3G down the toilet (clean water!), after retriving it and allowing it to dry I turned it on but there was no response.  I plugged it in to the mains and switched it on, at first all looked good, it lit up and displayed the Apple logo, however after about 20 seconds the screen went blank and nothing else happened.  I pressed the power button again and the Apple logo reappeared, again for about 15-20 seconds.  It does nothing else and isn't charging.
    Having read other posts about performing a factory reset, I plugged the phone into my computer but it doesn't come on at all (not even the Apple logo).  The USB port and cable work as they charge my iPhone4 fine.  This means that Windows/iTunes are unable to detect it is even there so I can't turn it on to perform a reset.
    Any advice?  Shorted battery?
    Thanks!

    Are you doing this?

  • Iphone 4s stuck in apple logo and couldn't restore

    Hey guys,
    I woke up this morning with my iphone 4S stucked in an apple logo screen. I did put it in DFU mode and tried to restore which ended up in having errors: 1603, 1611, 1604, 21. each of them in a different trial.
    Do you have any solutions on how to start it up?
    It doesn't have jailbreak or any 3rd party software on it. It was running iOS6.0

    I also discovered that If I push it to DFU and then use Recboot to exit it it will show 4 lines from the console over the logo and than screen turns black until the battery will die.

    Your Hosts file seems to be redirecting away from Apple. Edit it to delete all references to apple.com, Reboot and try.
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37,
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

    My iPhone 5 wouldn't start after I turned it off a few minutes after writing this. It went into recovery mode and I had no choice but to connect to iTunes on PC and restore.
    I restored to factory setting first, just to validate my phone was okay. For a second consecutive iOS update, the  iPhone 5 did not update smoothly while connected to PC and iTunes - I had to retry two times before the progress bar for the update showed. (The exact same problem with the restart occured when I updated to 7.0.4.)
    The good news is that I was ultimately able to restore the iPhone 5 to factory settings while running iOS 7.0.6. I did have a backup from about a month ago lying around and was able to successfully restore with that as well, so the damage done is almost negligible since I had my contacts, notes, mail, etc. backed up to iCloud.
    Once I completed both restores, the sync with iTunes worked fine.

    My ipad has a black screen and the apple logo and won't do anything else. I have tried to reset to no avail.

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • My ipod is stuck on the apple logo and won't let me connect to itunes to reset it what do i do?

    My ipod is stuck on the apple logo and won't let me connect to itunes to reset it what do i do?

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Help ! my ipad stuck on apple logo, and Error 21

    Dear,
    i got trouble with my ipad 3 global Ios 5.11... and somehow i accidently delete mu cydia since then i tried to restore it via itunes.. and when tried to update with ios 6 n finished, it stuck on apple logo and when i try to restore via itunes, it comes with the an error (21)..
    please lets me know since im getting desperate...
    thanks

    Your post indicates you have used Cydia, which is a software application for iOS that enables a user to find and install software packages on jailbroken iOS Apple devices. Since your iPad has been jailbroken,  we can't help you in this forum. Best bet is to Google for answers.
    You may have "bricked" your iPad and now have an $$$ paper weight. Plus your Apple warranty has been voided and the Apple Genius Bar/Support will not help you.

  • My iPod touch is stuck on apple logo and isn't recognized by iTunes

    My iPod touch gets stuck on the apple logo and won't let me get to the home screen. I tried plugging it into iTunes but It was not recognized. When I hold the power button down it tells me to charge it. When I do it gets stuck on the apple logo again. Please help!

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • IMac is stuck on apple logo and spinning wheel

    My wife did a software update and them it asked for a restart, she click restart but the computer got stuck in apple logo and spinning wheel. Won't go past that now. Just keeps spinning! Help for I know not what to do!!!! Please any idea?

    An invalid node is an error DU cannot repair. If you don't mind spending $100 for Disk Warrior, then I suggest you buy it because it can fix the error. Otherwise, do as the warning says. Backup your files. You will then have to erase the drive and reinstall. The procedure is:
    Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard 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.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
