IPad keeps rebooting after battery run all the way down.

The battery in my ipad got run all the way down so I plugged it in to charge.   I got the icon with the red battery and the little lightning bolt so I thought it would charge if I left it overnight.
But after a few seconds of charging it goes to what looks like the bootup screen (the apple in the center of the screen).  It stays in that screen indefinitely.  I tried holding down home+sleep and it would go back to the battery charging screen but then try to reboot a few seconds later.
Any ideas what I should try next?

No. Just use your iPad and don't obsess about its battery. It will last for years.

  • Do I need to let my iPad's battery run all the way down before charging it the first time I use it?

    I bought a new iPad mini and was wondering if I need to let the battery run down to the point where it shuts off on its own before charging it for the first time. I know the battery degenerates on its own over time, but I'm trying to get the most out of my battery so any help you can give would be much appreciated.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Since the iOS7 update on my iPad 2, I am having trouble charging it if it runs all the way down, and now, my Safari won't work at all, and it locks up when I click on Safari in the Setting section.  I have tried restoring, and Safari still does not work??

    I cannot reset the Ipad either, Safari won't work, and it won't charge properly if the battery runs all the way down...

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • Is it necessary to let my I pad battery go all the way down or should I recharge it at 10%

    I have been told to let my I pad battery run all the way down until the screen goes black and then to charge it .  And to do this once a month.  Is this correct?   Will this help the life of the battery? Will it help the battery accept a better charge?

    The advice to do that at least once a month is from here http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html :
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • My ipod touch won't charge.  I let it run all the way down, and now it shows a red empty battery, won't turn off or orn.

    My ipod touch won't recharge after I let it run all the way down.  It shows an empty battery with a tiny bit of red, and a spiky unblinking circle on the batery.  I can't turn it off or slide the slider.  I tried to charge it for 8 hours and nothing.

  • Should I run my battery all the way down the first time I use my new Macbook Pro?

    I just received a new Pro. Is it better to let the battey run all the way down on the first use? Should I charge it all the way up and then let it run all the way down? Does either make any difference? Thanks.

    That is definitely not required.

  • HT4060 How long should it take to charge battery when it is all the way down? (I Pad 3)

    How long should it take to charge I Pad 3 when the battery is all the way down?

    That depends on a number of things, but using the power adapter plugged into a wall socket it takes my iPad 3 about 5 hours to fully recharge.

  • Ipad Volume keeps turning itself all the way down

    ipad Volume keeps turning itself all the way down rendomly i`ve tryed everything from upgrading to V5 to rest the device what should i do

    Is the switch above the volume set for mute?  Accidentally bumping that would turn down the volume.
    Try Settings > General > Lock Rotation to On and see if that eliminates the problem (although beware that the switch will now control screen rotation.  If sound starts working corrcetly, but your screen lock keeps setting, then I think you are having a switch problem.

  • IPad air keyboard  makes sound when volume is turned all the way down

    My iPad air's keyboard makes noise, even when the volume is turned all the way down. Is this normal? If so how can I turn off the keyboard typing noise without disabling entirely.

    Aloha Raptorcheese, Good news, if you have you have change with buttons turned on you can control the keyboard volume with the normal volume control. No need to go back to settings all the time.

  • The sound effects volume is all the way down. It pops on for a second, then disappears. I can't find it in settings.   How do I get the sound back?

    The sound effects volume is all the way down.  It pops up for a second once in awhile and then disappears. I can't find it in the Setting.  Music sound plays fine, but no sound on my apps.  Any idea how to fix it?

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • How can I make a picture fit entirely in the photo box in a book.  The picture size is small, but the it only shows part of the picture, and the zoom is all the way down.

    I am trying to make a Photo Book using IPhoto for my granddaughter's wedding.  I am using 6 pictures per page, as I have many pictures to add to book.
    The picture size is small.  But when I zoom is all the way down to the end to make smaller.  Doesn't go far enough.  When I try to put a picture in the square spot, it cuts off part of the picture.  Has anyone else had this problem, and could help me out.  I really would like to put on each page even more pictures, but that is not an option with IPhoto.  I have used other sites to make books.  This is my first try with IPhoto.   I may have to revert to the old familiar ones.  Wanted to give this one a try.  My granddaughter leaves for Germany on the 21st to join her marine husband.  I am quickly running out of time.  (The wedding was this past Saturday)

    Place it the book, right click on it and fit to frame

  • ITunes starts automatically and the volume is all the way down

    Hi everyone, lately I have been experiencing some issues with iTunes. It starts at login (even though the option is not selected) and gives me an alert that the app volume is turned all the way down. Furthermore every time I try to turn up the volume, it will automatically jump back to the previous point.
    After many tries, I finally completely re-installed my OS and moved all my data through migration assistant. I only moved applications, music, pictures and documents, leaving behind all the configuration files and other stuff that seemed replaceable. This didn't work either.
    Any suggestions?

  • ITunes says volume tuned all the way down - no iTunes sound!

    Today iTunes pops up a notification saying 'iTunes volume turned all the way down'. The speakers are on, volume is up. All other media play fine - but there is no sound if I try and play anything through iTunes!
    I've never had this problem before.
    I downloaded iTunes again, restarted my Mac and still, same problem. Any ideas? Thanks!

    FYI, I can't say for sure this will fix your prob, but reinstalling an app on a Mac does NOT re-do the Preferences file, so if the Prefs are wonky, the reinstall will make no difference.
    *Renewing the Prefs*
    with iTunes not running, move the file Users>YourAccountName>Library>Preferences>com.apple.iTunes.plist to the desktop
    Launch iTunes (the app will automagically create a new prefs file)
    If the prob is now fixed, move that prefs file to the Trash. There might be some personal settings in iTunes you will need to re-do.
