IPad will not start after reboot

My iPad was sluggish this morning and would not make a Facetime call so I decided to reboot (hold power and home button until Apple logo appears) Since then, my iPad stays on Apple logo and will not boot up. This has been going on for the past 20 minutes. Help...my iPad is vital to my work.

You need to put iPad in Recovery Mode.

Firefox will not start, after reboot.

For a few months now Firefox will not start after I reboot my computer. In order to get it to start I click the exe then must go into task manager kill it, click the exe again, kill it again then, from there it will typically start, but sometimes it may take one or two more trys. When clicking the exe firefox will appear in the task manager under processes but will will start with ~7% CPU usage, then quickly drop to zero every time until it does actually open and start. I have ran a full system recovery and started anew after reinstalling mozilla several times failed to fix the problem. I run virus and spyware checks often and come up clean, and also run Chrome as a default browser.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Around the time 3.5 was released

Hello Tom.
You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

OSX will not start after reboot from single user mode

Hello,
Yesterday my iBook G4 was only starting in BASH mode. I've looked at discussions describing Kernel Panic and have followed the advice posted to the following post:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1553062#1553062
When I reboot I get past the language setup and the boot progress screen/progress bar gets almost complete before going to a continuously stalling/reloading blue screen.
When I try the command:
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
described in one of the responses I get a 'No such file or directory' message
I assume that as when I try:
cd /System/Library/CoreServices/Setup\ Assistant.app/Contents/MacOS
It returns '-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 58912 16 Aug 21:10 Setup Assistant'
it is the file that is missing.
As the discussion thread I was following seemed to go off on a bunch of other tangents (and was completed), I am hoping somebody might have suggestions for my specific problem under this new discussion.

Welcome To  Discussions Kongxyz!
It will help if you first post some background info.
"...only starting in BASH mode."
Explain exactly what was happening, and what the screen displayed.
Exactly which model iBook G4 is it?
What is the Processor speed?
What size is the Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
Which version number of Panther 10.3.x is installed
What peripherals do you have connected? A keyboard, mouse, printer, external drive or modem, router, etc?
What happened between the last time the iBook started successfully, and when it didn't?
Have you made any changes, like upgrading the system, updated or installed any applications or programs, etc?
Have there been any unusual occurences, like freezes, crashes, power outages, etc?
Are you able to startup from the system install disc to run Disk Repair?
Have you run Repair Permissions?
Instructions posted below.
Is the Mac shutdown overnight, or does it run 24/7?
Have you ever run any routine Maintenance procedures?
THESE ARE THE STEPS FOR USING DISK UTILITY TO REPAIR YOUR HD
1.Insert the System Install disk, Mac OS X CD-ROM disk, or Restore DVD disk, then restart the computer while holding the C key. Use the System disk, of the OS, that is currently installed.
2.Once started up from CD or DVD, on the Menubar at the top of the screen, choose Disk Utility from the Installer contextual menu.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
3.Click the First Aid tab.
4.Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5.Select your Mac OS X volume, if necessary.
6.Click Repair. If DU reports errors it has fixed, re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported.
7.Repeat steps 5 & 6, but select the Hard Drive this time. It's usually the first listed with the manufacturer's model number. Make note of the S.M.A.R.T. status.
8.When finished, select Quit Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
9.Select Quit Installer from the Installer menu.
10.In the resulting pop-up window, choose restart.
11.After the computer has restarted, you can eject the CD.
TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
2.Click First Aid.
3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)
Rerun RP until the only messages reported, are listed here Spurious Permissions Errors Using: 10.3.x, authored by Michael Conniff.
When "Repair Permissions" is complete. Quit "Disk Utility".

HT201274 My ipad will not start

My ipad will not start.
I have to do a hard reboot inorder for it to turn off.
It just get the start white apple and then it restarts after a few minutes.
I also cannot access the ipad via itunes and therefore I cannot do a restore. I could access it before the problem happened.
This occured after I updated an app and did a reboot.   The update never completed itself (Flipboard)
The itunes is the lastest version.

HT4972 my ipad will not start it has an apple in the center and no matter what I do it will not dispeasr, erase or open

MY ipad will not start. I can only see an apple in the center.

Have you tried this?
Reboot 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.

HT1349 My ipad will not start up, it has the swirl in the center of the screen and has been there for 30hrs now.

My ipad will not start up, it has the swirl in the center of the screen and has been there for 30hrs now, what can I do?

First thing to try is a reboot of your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

HT1695 Both my iPod and my MacBookPro connect with my home Wi-Fi but my iPad will not even after entering the passcode. I have tried Full shutdown and tried other Wi-Fi's for which I had the correct passcode. My iPad would not connect. Any suggestions?

Hi! I am having the same problem. What's odd is that a few days ago- the ipad was connecting to the network fine. No changes made. Other devices can connect to this network. I have also been able to connect my ipad to other networks.
I have reset all network settings, reset my ipad, reset the router, hard stop reboot, turn on/off wifi connection. what's interesting is that when i click the arrow next to the network i am trying to log onto- the ip address, router, and dns numbers come up automatically and the router number does not fill in (also- this process takes a long time- at least 5 minutes).
any thoughts?

My ipad will not start. It is 1 year old...I have tried holding the two buttons and nothing..I have it connected to my desktop and it will make a ding noise but nothing comes up on the screen.

My Itunes will not start after the latest update. I keeo getting error message tEventType : InPageError P1 : c000009c P2 : 00000003 . I have tried to reinstall but no joy. Any advise?

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Hi ,
as a first question: What versions of WAS / NWDS are you using?! (Main question is if you are using corresponding versions, i.e. NWDS 2.0.x with WAS 6.40 SP x, with the same value for x.)

My mini ipad will not start up at all just black screen

my ipad will not start up

Tap the word Genius Appointment in Kappy's answer, it's a link. Or you can call the nearest Apple Store.
Try a reset first. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own.

HT201263 Help. My wife's iPad will not start up. I updated it two nights ago (Nov 12) to the latest IOS. It seemed to update normally. However, today it will not start or give any response. I tried to do a restore, but it will not let me do that.

Help!!!!!! My wife's iPad will not start up. I updated two nights ago to the latest IOS and today it will not do anything. It is charged and I've tried to access it through itunes to no avail.

From your text, it's difficult to determine if the problem lies with the iPad or the cable.
If the iPad still works, but you're having a problem with the sync, you may want to check all the cables and connections. If the iPad doesn't work (frozen or unresponsive), post and we'll go through the checklist together.

TS3297 Just rented a movie in French on my iMac... movie will not start after download ?

Just rented a movie in French on my iMac... movie will not start after download ?
What I do now ?

Okay. I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
