Ipad 2 will not boot or charge after 2 attempts to restore through recovery

My Ipad 2 suddenly stopped working. It had the Apple logo and occassionally when plugged in a battery symbol that showed a red bar at the base and no charging indicator. I tried hard resets, I tried everything I could think of. I finally got it into recovery mode with Itunes - which I did twice - but the same results at the end. Apple Logo on screen and battery symbol when I first plug it in - showing a battery with just a small red bar at the base to indicate that it is not charged. I have charged it for extend lengths using multiple Ipad chargers and cords.
Not sure what to do next. Any ideas or suggestions?

Hi Ddonatto,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you were able to place your iPad into recovery mode and restore it using iTunes, but it is still stuck at the Apple logo and does not charge. If so, your iPad may need service.
The following link should help you get started with the process and has links with additional information on topics such as warranty and service pricing, battery replacement, and express replacement service.

All the best,

IMac will not boot into OSX after startup disk switch in control panel.!

I am having trouble with my son's iMac DV SE (graphite) running Classic and OSX (10.3.9). Typically, the computer runs in OS9 as the startup system because most of the kids' software we run is old and uses Classic. Over the weekend, I changed the startup disk to OSX in the control panels and restarted the computer so I could install some new software. The computer will not boot past the gray apple and progress indicator. I have tried resetting the PRAM, booting from the CD and restarting with the options key depressed to no avail. (Can't do a Safeboot either.) I was able to put the iMac into target mode and access the control panels via my laptop and restart in OS9. I thought I had resolved the issue causing the startup problem, but I was wrong. Now I can't get past the gray apple or access the hard disk through target mode (the iMac hard disk does not appear on the laptop's desktop). Is there a way to force the computer back into OS9 other than holding down the option key at startup? When I try this, I get the hard disk icon, but I can't move it off of OSX. Thanks in advance for any help.

Is there a way to force the computer back into OS9 other than holding down the option key at startup?
Holding down the OPTION key will only work if OS 9 is on a different partition than the OS X installation. If they are on the same partition, it won't work.
One way to get it back to OS 9 is to boot from the OS 9 or OS X installation disc. Then set the control panel, or preference pane, to boot from the OS 9 installed on the hard drive.
Another way is to boot from the OS 9 install disc and perform a clean install of OS 9. This will create a new OS 9 System folder and it will NOT touch any other files on the drive. KB 58176, Mac OS 8.5, Mac OS 9: Performing a Clean Installation

IPad Mini will not boot after battery drained after IOS8.0.2 Update

I upgraded to IOS 8.0.2 having skipped 8.0.1 two days ago. I did not notice any unusual problems, but with hindsight a few apps did crash out on occasions, but not consistently.
Yesterday night I let the battery completely drain and I plugged it in to recharge overnight.
This morning I find that logo is still on screen and it doesn't look as if the iPad has recharged. I have tried re-booting a number of times, but it will not progress beyond the Apple Logo. I have tried connecting to iTunes on my Macbook Pro, but no device is recognised.
Having left the iPad sitting next to me while still connected to a charger, I have noticed on a couple of occasions a flash of blue screen followed by black and then the Apple Logo appearing again.
My iPad Mini Retina 128Gb appears very dead at the moment. Any suggestions on revival?

Try to put your iPad into DFU mode and do a full restore this way. To do so, follow the steps below:
1. Open iTunes on your computer
2. Connect your iPad via USB.
3. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for about 10 seconds.
4. Release the Sleep/Week button but keep pressing the Home button until iTunes shows that it has detected and iPad in DFU mode.
5. Try restoring your iPad.
If this won't solve your problem, and you are not able to do a restore via iTunes at all, then take your iPad to an Apple Retail Store because then it is possibly a hardware failure. Here you can find the service options: https://getsupport.apple.com/ProductSelector.action

HP Pavilion g6 will not boot or charge

I have a Pavilion g6 with Windows 7. It worked with no problem yesterday, and it shut itself off when the battery ran down. I plugged it in today, and it will not charge, turn on, or respond in any way. Help!

What is the exact model of Pavilion G6 are you using?

My iPad 2 WILL NOT complete / finish sync after update of 7.1

I have tried syncing my iPad 2 several times and even left it overnght to complete the sync, but it gets hung up at "Waiting for changes to be applied" which is the last phase of the sync. I have restarted my Mac Book and my iPad 2 TWICE and tried resyncing at least twice. Restoring my iPad isn't something I want to do considering all of the apps I have and reorganization, etc. Can anyone help me with this issue?

Nobody is dying to restore a device, but I've done it several times and I never had to reorganize my apps or folder structure. I'm not saying that the folder structure will not blow up on you if you restore, but it hasn't happened to me....yet anyway.
You restarted the iPad but did you reset the iPad? I would also close all apps on the iPad, then reset the device, restart the Mac again and then try to sync again.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

My brand new ipad mini will not take a charge from the wall or a computer. it often shows the plug icon in the battery regardless of when the battery stands in terms of charge. what up wit dat?

3 day old Ipad 2 will not boot up or restore. unknown error?

Tried to update to iOS5 as advised in itunes. Now will not operate. Tries to restore and fails with Error code 1611. Not going to be easy to return it to Tesco in Inverness. Anyone got any ideas?

No further problems with it. I've taken it back to Tesco in Stornoway and got a full refund. Apparently a hardware fault? I don't think I shall be bothering to replace it any time soon. Pity, 'cos it could be a very usefull device. Still, once bitten, twice shy.

2851 Router will not boot from CF, after reload goes into rommon

I recently obtained a 2851 and have been battling this issue for a week now. An odd set of circumstances happen with the bootstrap startup process. If the router has loss of power or when reloaded; it fails to read the CF card and boots to rommon. I can tftp an image to it (tftpdnld -r) and IOS CAN read the flash card along with any saved configuration.
In fact once in IOS, I can wr mem and print the hardware details of the CF card. Once I reload the router it goes to rommon, fails to open the flash, then sits until i tftp the image back. When the router load IOS, it also loads the startup config.
I don't think it's a problem with the CF card as IOS can read it. I've tried formatting the card from IOS and from my pc as FAT, FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS - it didn't make a different. I updated the ROMMON to allow for USB booting but haven't purchased a USB Drive yet for testing. The upgrade didn't resolve this issue either. It almost seems like a firmware problem with the EPROM.
I've played with the config register to see what, if any, impact it had. Currently it's set to 0x2102, putting it in the diag register didn't produce any other errors than what's listed below.
I'm stumped and out of ideas. Hoping somebody has some insight on what could be causing this to happen.

Yes, I have tried different types of CF and USB with the same result. I have "official" cisco 256mb cf and a sandisk cf. I have tried various brands of usbflash.
I added boot system statements to the config to cf, then usb0, then usb1 to see if perhaps one would read. It looks like it doesn't bother after the first device fails. This is only for my studies and I can deal with "tftpdnld -r" every time I boot it. Just was trying to nail down any other possibilies.

IChat will not audio/video connect after first attempt

Hi all, this is my first time at posting on any discussion site so please excuses my ignorance, and thank you in advance for any help you see fit to give me.
I have had a good look through all the posts here and a good search through the web to find help as well as a 3 hour call to Apple! Still no luck yet, please help!! I come across similar problems but this seem to be a bit different?
I am trying to connect to my family using iChat 4.0. The set up at my end is the same as my family. We both purchased at the same time in December new 24"iMac's 2.8GHz running Leopard 10.5.1. The imacs are connected via ethernet cable to new Apple Airport extremes, the new style ones. in turn the extremes are connected to new M3 X-modems then to our broadband internet connection wall sockets. We both use Zen internet as our ISP. We both have .mac full accounts
We have both used ichat before on our old iMacs/router set up using 10.4 and ichat 3 without any problems, that was via the same ISP and at the same locations.
We have connected to each other using Text without problems and have connected via video chat the first time we used the new set up and also some of the times when we make changes to some settings some where within the ichat or prefs settings, but only the once then it stops working. But it stops there. Most of the time we cannot connect at all apart from text. We have tried many things at both ends on the connection using all the leads I have found in these posts as well as the things Apple told me to do, but no luck.
So far I have tried it with the Leopard firewall off (allowing all incoming connections) and also on with iChat listed as one of the apps. (this was done after the update to 10.5.1 as this update was out before we purchased the macs so it was install from day one once we started up) I have turn off the .mac encryption at both ends and on. I have set the Quicktime stream speed to the '1.5Mbps T1/ Setting' and also set the iChat Bandwidth limit to 1Mbps as well as none and other speeds. Plus other changes on the Airport extreme as instructed by Apple all of which failed and I ended up back with the original setting (after losing all internet access at one point!).
When we try and connect via anything other than text, it starts off by trying to connect then after about 15 secs or so we both get a message at each end of the connection saying.......
+There was a communication error during your iChat.+
+Did not receive a respone from (our names). You can send details about this problem to apple to help improve future versions of iChat+

I may have left out some vital information, and if so sorry but just ask and I'll fill it in if it can help solve the problem for us.
If anyone can help with this matter than many thanks in advance.

Hi Ralph,
Thanks for the links. I have had a look at the ADSL Nation web site, and yes I did set my modem up as they state, the DNS server was removed.
Thinking back to when I had just the modem connected straight to the computer without the Airport (as per you suggestion) and iChat worked including the video, it would make me think that the problem lays with the Airport? But by the sounds of your last post the Airport does not have settings to be able to change DoS or SPI or it does not make any difference anyway/ or it Automatic?? Is that what you mean?
I have noticed on other posts people talking about having a list of ports open for iChat. As on your web site as well. However I think your web site is looking towards iChat3, I think? I'm think that iChat 4 is different when it comes to port opening??. Is this something I have to set up on the Airport and if so how? The list of ports go something like this, that I've seen.....
5190, 5220, 5222, 5223, 5298 TCP and 5060, 5190, 5297, 5298, 5353, 5678, 16384-16403 UDP
I just saw this in a new post.( http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1331562&tstart=0 )
Are they ports on the Airport or iMac? I was thinking that by adding the iChat to the list on the Firewall that all the ports that need to be open would be opened by Leopard? Or do I need to do this manually as well on the Airport? Does Bonjour have anything to do with this? Is that something I need to look into.
Thanks for the on going help with this one, it seems to be a strange one!

Windows won't give a kernal panic or BSOD because it is a Mac related hardware issue.
If you can't boot from CD/DVD:

Your asking about a Mac Pro, but those are not "G5" and the OS can't be transferred between PowerMacs and Mac Pro.... are you sure we are talking about only Mac Pros?
Putting XP and Mac OS on the same drive, that doesn't strike me as what one would do; keep them on different drives.
And, if they are on the same drive, then you really haven't reformatted the drive, which would involve wiping any and all partitions, and then creating your Mac Standard (HFS+ Journaling) and backup XP with WinClone or install it to another drive.
I don't have trouble with Windows, but I do with the Boot Camp Assistant and drivers.
