IPad unresponsive after iOS 8.02 update, doesn't show up in iTunes, hardware reset (home and standby buttons both held down for ten seconds) not working

I have a 32GB iPad mini that was purchased new in June of this year. A little while ago, I started the iOS 8.02 download while it was plugged into a wall socket using an official apple wall to USB plug and an official apple thunderbolt cable. I then left for 25 minutes to get some food.
On coming back, I discovered the iPad with a black screen showing the apple logo. I thought this was just an ordinary part of the update, it was restarting or something after installation, so I thought nothing of it. Then, after another minute or two, the screen flashed blue and then went completely black.
Puzzled, I waited for another second and the apple logo reappeared as if the iPad was restarting again. However, after a few minutes, this happened again. This has been going on for the last half an hour, and I was wondering has anybody experienced this before.
As I stated in the title, it won't show up in iTunes, and the hardware reset or whatever it's called doesn't work. Also, bear in mind I had issues syncing it with iTunes the night before and it also seemed to crash a few times last night, restarting the iPad and bringing it to the blank screen with the apple logo for a few seconds before going to the lock screen. That didn't happen at all this morning though.
The iPad is not jailbroken, however, it does have licenses for gba4iOS, which is still installed on it, and a VPN license installed on it by the Hola app, which I deleted but never bothered deleting the license for. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Colin how are you?
I updated my IPAD yesterday and have the exact same problem.
Itunes does not recognize my ipad. Home and standby also doesnt work.
Also have the blue thing every few minutes and the apple logo but it never goes beyond it.
Have you solved the issue?

After ios 8.02 update iCloud Drive is stuck in a loop that reads "upgrading" with a spinning wheel spokes for the last 48 hours.

After ios 8.02 update iCloud Drive is stuck in a loop that reads "upgrading" with a spinning wheel spokes for the last 48 hours.

There's a solution posted here that may work for you: iCloud Drive won't stop upgrading.

Decided to update iphone 4 to ios 5.1 and mid update it froze and the screen is black. Phone does not respond to any combinations of home and power buttons, when plugged into computer it does not see it is plugged in, any ideas?

Decided to update iphone 4 to ios 5.1 and mid update it froze and the screen is black. Phone does not respond to any combinations of home and power buttons, when plugged into computer it does not see it is plugged in so I cannot restore or anything. Looks like the screen is on it's just unresponsive and black obviously. Has anyone had this problem? I was updating via wifi right in front of my router and my computer.

Spoke to a "senior advisor" in the Apple TV department. Her suggestions: change channel in router to minimize/eliminate wifi interference from other users; move router away from any metal - i.e., DVD player, phone modem, etc.; keep router away from wireless 2.4 gH phones, which are "notorious" for crashing wifi routers. So she confirms that the problem is one of connection to router suddenly dropping out.
My own feeling is that none of these fixes will do the trick, because it seems pretty clear that there is a hardware component here - the timing of the drops seems like an overheating issue. It takes 35-40 minutes for the box to warm up enough for the first drop; then each consecutive drop happens quicker than the one before, as it heats up more. Each time it drops, its tiny brain gets a little more scrambled; last night it finally wouldn't start up again at all.
My suggestion is that everyone who is experiencing this problem, please call Apple tech support and ask to speak to a senior advisor in the Apple TV department. Make them aware of this problem!

Error 1630 on iPad 2 after iOS 5.0 update

Hello there, it seems that I am one of the lucky ones to have an iPad 2 3g, and unlucky to get error 1630 after updating to ios 5, and get the error "no sim card installed". Does anyone found a solution that worked? Thank you -

Downgrading the iOS is not supported. In terms of Safari, you could try clearing its cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

IPad Mini after iOS 8.3 update causes iPhoto 11 repeats

After upgrading both iPhone 5S and iPad Mini to iOS 8.3 I sync them to my Mac Pro 1.1 Lion there is a peculiar repeat of iPhoto 11 continually trying to load photos.
It counts the quantity then the iPad or iPhone dismounts. It remounts and it starts again. I shut the iPhoto down and restarted the app. It continues to do it. I will rebooting the Mac Pro and try it.
Heads for of you still running Mac Pro 1.1 with Lion.

You can preform a DFU restore.
Follow my steps:
- power down your iPad
- Hold down the home button and don't let go
- Plug the iPad to your computer
- Do not let go the home button
- ITunes will prompt you that the iPad is recovery stage
- Restore your iPad
You should be all set and updated issue free.
Cheers!

No cellular on iPad 2 after iOS 8.1 update

Lost cellular capability after updating iPad 2 to iOS 8.0, then 8.0.2. Have now Reset, Restored and Updated iPad to iOS 8.1 but still no cellular, only wi-fi. This problem has only occurred since since iOS 8.x. Is there a fix for this?

Hi,
I had the same problem for the past 24 hours.
I found the below advice resolved my problem completely.
Basically, rebooted mbp, restored iPad from previous back up = iPad 3 back to normal.
Phew...that was a tad frightening !
Hope it helps you....
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod
Kind regards,

Wifi and cellular dropping out on iPad air after iOS 8.02 update

Hi
I have recently updated my iPad air to 8.02 and ended up getting problems with wifi and cellular data being very sporadic at best. Took it to the Genius Bar and they replaced it thinking it was a hardware problem. Turns out it is not as it updated again and it is once again sporadic. I tend to find turning it off helps temporarily but always cuts out and needs to be put into airplane mode to reset the connection. Is anyone else having this problem....this is the 3 rd time I have tried to post this as it has cut out and the connection has been lost each time.
I did speak to a customer service advisor over the phone and she thought it may have been wifi and cellular competing but I have turned mobile data off and it is as bad as ever if not worse.

This is getting ridiculous. How long does it take to properly fix this issue. I have ipad air running IOS 8.02. I keep dropping wifi signal regularly throughout the day. I have tried everything to try and improve my connection but nothing has worked. Other products not running IOS 8.20 have a perfect sustained connection to my wifi so the firmware is definitely the issue. When are apple going to acknowledge and fix this issue that is affecting so many.
Roll on June because I'm done with Apple once and for all after many many years. No more iphone for me. Hopefully then I can receive calls without them going straight to voicemail, recieve texts quicker than an 8 hour delay and get voicemails quicker than 2 weeks later. Complete shambles and very poor customer service. Goodness only knows what those who rely on their phone/ipad for work are doing.

Itunes no longer connects to 5S, ipad Mini retina and ipad 2 after ios 8.02 update

Since the ios 8 and now 8.02 updates my Itunes does not connect at all to my iphone 5s, ipad mini (retina) and ipad 2.
iTunes' built in diagnostic sync test says no devices found.
I plug in the USB and nothing happens.
USB ports are working fine. All my other USB plug ins still work fine.
Same computer, same Windows 7 - 64 bit - all updated.
I did a clean iTunes delete per Apple instructions and then re installed iTunes again per Apple instructions and still nothing.
I got first a missing DLL error message and then not even a beep when plugging in the cord (yes all Apple accessories).
Anyone else run into this issue?
Sheesh I hate updates!
Thanks!

Anyone else having reset loop issues with ipad or ipad mini after IOS 7.02 update ? Based on my research it looks like this release is a total disaster for a lot of users. Locking up phones and ipads. Hopefully 7.03 will fix this mess.

My Ipad mini is in a constant reset loop since 7.02 upgrade. Did a full recover twice to Factory setting thru Itunes. That did not work. Any thoughts on this release and it's implications. Looks like many people are having the same issues.

Hi gruhland,
Thanks for your reply. It sounds like your device is actually in a restart loop, which is different from the process of a soft reset. Specifically, what I wanted you to try is this:
Resetting your device
If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If resetting does not break the restart loop, it sounds like a different direction may be warranted here. Due to the nature of your issue you may find more assistance by using another one of Apple's support resources:

Take care,

The new iOS 6.0 update doesn't show my apps on my home screen. They are in the iCloud but only give me the option to open therm. How do I get these apps back to my home screen?

My apps are not showing on my home screen after the new iOS 6 update. They are in my iCloud but it only gives me and option to open. How do I get these apps back on my home screen?

Do you have an Restrictions set that would hide the apps? Settings>General>Restrictions
Have you used the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find them.
Next
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

HT201317 My shared photo album will not work. I am trying to upload photos but I doesn't show up in my new device. I've done it before but now it's not working. My old device is a 4s iOS 7.1.1 and my new one is a 5 iOS 8.1.1. How can I make the pictures s

my photo stream does not work at all. I've tried making a new album, but that does not work. So I've tried using an already existing album and deleting the pictures there. I decided to only upload 1 photo from my old phone (iPhone 4s iOS 7.1.1) to see if it'll show up on my new device (iPhone 5 iOS 8.1.1) it doesnt even show up in my new phone (iPhone 6 iOS 8.1.2) this picture is what shows up on both my iPhone 6 and 5 but on the 4s there is a picture that I "uploaded" and a second one that came out of nowhere. I do not know what to do because in the past this has worked out for me and it shows up on all three devices

You can't restore to a backup that was taken on a device which has a higher version of iOS than on your iPad, you will have to update your iPad to 8.1.3 to be able to restore to it
You should be able to update your iPad via Settings > General > Software Update

Home button unresponsive after iOS 7.1 update (iPhone 5)

Hi,
I just updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 7.1 on Monday. But today (Thursday) my home button suddenly unresponsive. The phone had been working normally until now when I was on FaceTime and tried to view my home screen but couldn't.
Turning the phone off/on doesn't fix it. Once I turn off the phone and turn it back on, I can see the homepage and enter any app but I can't escape that app without shutting down the phone again.
Also, there is no damage to the phone/home button in any way (physical, water, etc.) I can't reset the phone because, you know, the home button won't respond.
How can I remedy this? Is anyone else having this problem?

I had the same problem and kept playing around with the phone and doing internet searches. This seems to have fixed the problem. I went to Settings, General, Accessibility and then Home-Click Speed. I changed from Default to Slow.

Try this first - 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.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
