Ipad Mini Problems (I know, what a shock)

My Ipad Mini (had it less than a year) completely died the other night and now it connects to wifi but its unusable, and will not recognize my icloud account.
I have reset it multiple times and still nothing helps. I don't have a laptop handy to sync it and this is getting very frustrating.
Going on day 3 of not being able to use this darn thing! The clock is wrong and nothing I can do will let me manually reset it, none of my apps work basically I have an expensive paperweight right now.

Since you say you don't have a computer to sync or restore the iPad I suggest that you make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • I was charging my iPad2 and when reaching 90% it just went black and can't be started again. Anyone that have had this problem and know what to do?

    I was charging my iPad2 and when reaching 90% it just went black and can't be started again. Anyone that have had this problem and know what to do?

    I have had this problem several times. The iPad comes off charging with a black screen and only a hard reset works to get it back.  Then you have to go to settings to be sure nothing changed there.   
    I have had serveral hard resets and three restore operations and the problem recurs.  I am not sure if it is the iPad2 or an app that is causing the problem.   So far I can live with it as is.

  • The sound on all of my game apps and my alerts has stopped working. Still works for Netflix, Hulu, YouTube... Anything video related. Anyone else have this problem or know what I should do to fix it?

    The sound on all of my game apps and my alerts has stopped working. Still works for Netflix, Hulu, YouTube... Anything video related. Anyone else have this problem or know what I should do to fix it?

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may 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.

  • My ipad mini wont turn on what do i do?, my ipad mini wont turn on what do i do?

    My Ipad mini wont turn on what do i do?

    Assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Ipad mini problem typing

    Every time I try trying an email my ipad mini is not reacting to my touch. It leaves letters out as I type so I need to keep correcting the typing. It changes the words because it thinks I misspelled the word when actually it's just because its not reacting to my touch correctly and so it leaves off letters. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I know it's not an auto correct issue.its the keypad not reacting correctly to my touch, leaving letters and spaces out of the word I'm typing. These missing letters is what makes the autocorrect change the word iI trying to type . Si I'm trying to fugue how to either make my ipad mini more sensitive to the touch or correct what ever is causing my minitonot react to my touch. I spend more time correcting my emails before I send them then I do actually typing the because of this issue.

  • My iPad mini is cracked and what's the price for it to be fixed? It doesn't have a retina display.

    Does anybody know the price?? Please help!!

  • Ipad mini problem with wifi after update 6.1.3

    Hello!
    My ipad mini was working fine before the 6.1.3 upgrade, immediately after updating, the wifi stopped working. Restore the iPad to its factory settings as deleting both my data and to reintroduce the network, was still not working.
    Help please!

    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.)
    Some other things to try:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Lightning to SD Card adaptor iPad Mini problem

    Hi!
    I have recently bought an SD card adaptor (original) to use with my standard SD cards (4-32GBs). The photos on the memory cards are taken with my Nikon D7000 and then directly put into the adaptor for the iPad. I know that it´s supposed to pop up the camera page so that you can import the new photos. but nothing happens. at all. I´ve tried to disconnect the adaptor waited, same with the memory card, still nothing. Everything on the iPad is updated.
    Really need some advice.
    Thanks
    Martin

    Hi
    I am using lightning to SD card reader on my iPad mini with iOS 7.
    Mine still works, and is surely genuine as I purchased from Apple retail store in Australia however, the reader is now extraordinarily slow to load image previews from the card. Where this was previously near instantaneous on iOS 6, the image previews take 1-2secs to load EACH which is completely ridiculous.
    Very frustrating!!!
    Apple please fix this.
