    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. When the red slider appears, release the Sleep/Wake button.
    Instead of dragging the red slider, press and hold the Home button for six seconds.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • HT1414 My ipad has locked-up, it has frozen while running an app, and will not respond to any button,  what do I do?

    My ipad has locked-up, it has frozen while running an app, and will not respond to any button,  what do I do?
    It simply stays on the same screen image, and does not respond to anything.  When I plug it into itunes, there is no indication of its presence.
    The ipad's clock has also stopped.
       eek

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

  • Hi my mini ipad has locked me out and says connect to Itunes but it wont connect to it

    Hi my mini ipad has locked me out and says connect to Itunes but it wont connect to it

    Try:
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, 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.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • My Ipad has locked with Itunes logo and cable displayed on a black screen.    Cant do anything

    My Ipad has locked on a black screen with only the Itunes music logo together  with an arrow and a cable white photo display.    Turning it on and off achieves nothing, only the Itunes circle and cable appear each time.     What can I do to rectify?

    I uploaded iOS 7 and the ipad came up with a black screen with pictures of iTunes logo and power cord.  It wouldn't turn off or respond to any actions.  A terrifying moment.  I followed some suggestions from these discussions, connected iPad to Macbook with iTunes open and prayed.  It took 3 separate times to completely reset the iPad, because of several "errors" that would occur throughout the lengthy process.  This necessity to completely reset my iPad (and it is very shakily alive now, I fear) was a direct result of uploading the new OS.  I am furious.  What is going on with Apple?  I see this has happened to people for quite a while now.  Good Lord.

    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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My iPad has locked so the screen doesn't rotate!? How do I un lock it?

    My iPad has locked so the screen doesn't rotate!? How do I un lock it?

    when you flipped the switch did the roation icon appear in the middle of the screen for a moment?
    one thing you can also try is...
    Try doing a hard reboot
    1. hold the power and home buttons down
    2. you will see the "swipe to turn off" screen come up... KEEP HOLDING THE BUTTONS
    3. The screen will go black (turn off)... KEEP HOLDING THE BUTTONS
    4. A white Apple logo will appear on the screen, now you can release the buttons. Let the iDevice boot... should only take a couple minutes.

  • My Android Galaxy S5 has locked up and gone into endless loading while trying to update to the Kitkat update. I have set it back to factory settings and tried again and it has locked up again. My phone no longer works. What else can I do?

        Oh goodness,SLEEPER888. We wish you didn't have this problem while trying to complete this update.You have done quite a bit of troubleshooting on your own. If the phone update does not take, we would need to replace it with the warranty. Is it still locked up?
