IPad Mini keeps restarting during recovery mode!?

I bought an iPad Mini a couple of months ago,as a joke my aunt put a password for my iPad, i kept trying to open it, until i hit the disabled screen connect to itunes, i searched the web and found a waay out of it, so when i start recovery mode on my laptop, it does the iPad Software Update first. The iPad restartes during the restore and i have to do the restore one more time but it just happens again, PLZ HELP!!

Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • TS3367 ipad mini keep restarting during facetime..please advise..

    I'm having problem with my Ipad mini. During my conversation, the Ipad mini keep restart again and again.Could somebody advise if anything can be done on this problem.

    FaceTime is not  available on devices purchased or used in certain countries, including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. This is by government decree. The FaceTime app can't be downloaded or installed on these iPads.

  • My ipad mini went in to recovery mode, when installing ios 8 HELP!!

    I was trying to install ios 8 when my ipad mini went in to recovery mode. please help!!

    Hey Foxamy31,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like your iPhone is in recovery mode, meaning you’ll need to restore it with iTunes. If you previously synced/backed up with iTunes or iCloud, you might be able to restore from your backup:

  • My iPad mini keeps restarting randomly all the time

    My iPad mini keeps restarting randomly all the time, I already restored it to manufacturer settings, help! This started about a week ago, and I can't take it to Apple because I got this Christmas 2012. I already reset it all, and it still keeps restarting.

    I had the same problem.  I ended up restoring to the factory settings using the method:
    1. connect usb to computer
    2. hold down home button and connect cord to ipad...continue holding down home key until connect to itunes appears on screen, then release
    3. restore to factory settings
    I lost all my pictures and data, but the ipad works again. Such a pain! Not happy about this at all!

  • IPad mini keeps restarting

    My ipad mini keeps restarting ever since I've installed the new update. Does anyone have any simple ideas to make this incredibly annoying problem stop?

    Try a device reset:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • My ipad mini is stuck in recovery mode. Help please!

    Hello. My ipad mini is stuck in recovery mode. It is not jail broken. I tried fixing it by pressing the home bottom and then connecting it to the cable (which was connected to the computer), just like the apple support says. But it does not work. Help!

    Follow step 1 to step 3 very closely.

  • Why does my ipad mini keep restarting itself?

    I bought an ipad mini in Feb, 2013 and until 2 weeks ago it has been working like a charm. Now my ipad mini  restarts on its own without my consent. I have witnessed it restart when i have been reading books from ibooks, when opening programs, when listening to music and a few times when it hasn't been in use just sitting on the bench in screen saver mode. Yesterday i plugged the mini into my laptop and determined that i am currently using the most up to date software and that ensured i had saved a back up on the icoud and my computer. Finally i went trhough itunes to restore my ipad to is factory settings. This was completed this morning without a glitch only to find some 10 hours later my ipad is continueing to restart without any warning. Help!!

  • Ipad mini, keeps restarting itself

    Ever since I updated my ipad to ios 7.0.6 it keeps restarting itself throughout the day, It switches off and then the apple logo appears but then it goes off again and the apple logo comes back on, it can do this four or five times before it comes back on properly. I got it for Christmas 2012 and it's worked fine I"ve had no problems with it up till now.

    Hello there, mummyshipmunk.

  • As of february 5th 2014 my ipad mini keeps restarting! anyone else having this problem?

    i really could use help on this. I've tried all restart and reset options. could it be a software glitch?

    As far as I know, iWork applications were always snails.
    I didn't noticed speed changes in the late 10.6 versions.
    With 10.7, the new features, Autosave and Versions, add an important use of the processors which clearly slow the apps.
    I assume that we will have to wait until the next major update (iWork '10 or '12) to get apps really optimized for this operating system.

  • My iPad mini is stuck in recovery mode; it won't turn off?

    All I have is the apple logo and a progress bar that doesn't move. iTunes doesn't recognise it when plugged in, either. I was trying to erase all contents and settings to set it up as a new iPad. I've tried a hard reset, and it comes back up with the same screen. Will letting the power drain be of any use?
    Any help appreciated.

    I was rather hoping someone might have some advice on here other than a trip to the Apple Store.....;-)

    my ipad 1 keep restarting every 3 min

    Hello there, afu7830.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some good steps for troubleshooting your issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Particularly:
    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 LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 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.

  • Why does my ipad mini keep glitching.  We keeps randomly doing stuff on its own while on not even touching it?  I've tried restarting it by holding down lock and home button about a thousand times, it never works.  so could you please help?? thanks(:

    why does my ipad mini keep glitching!! /:

    Your iPhone doesn't require as much power to charge as your iPad needs so there is a possibility that the charge could have a problem even though you were able to charge the phone. If you can try a different power adapter and still have no luck, then the only thing left - IMO - is to contact Apple support and see what they advise.
    BTW  ....   Copied from your first post ...
    i then decided to do a reset or restore by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button down.
    I'm not trying to be a nitpicker - but what you described is a hard reset and your post gave no indication that you tried a software restore - which I referenced in my post. That's why I suggested the restore.
    Many times restoring the iPad to factory settings can help "revive" the device. If you have tried restoring according to the two support articles that I directed you to and still have no success, you are probably out of luck getting any further help on this site. That's all that you can try at this point at least AFAIK.
