Ipad will not turn on or do anything. I have the new Ipad.Whats wrong?

Ipad will not turn on. I have the new Ipad. Whats wrong? Its only about 2 months old.

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.

    my ipad will not turn on when I plug it up, the screen light will occasionally blink, thank you

    First, make sure that it's fully charged.
    Then, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • My ipad will not turn on and is charged, i have also tried a reset and the screen flashes and then goes black.

    My ipad will not turn on and is charged.  I have also tried to reset my ipad by holding in the off/on button and the home button at the same time , but it did not work.  The screen flickered a couple times and then went black.  Is there anything else I can try?

    Hi,
    Does anything appear on the screen at all, e.g: Apple Logo etc?
    You may also find the information here useful: iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

  • My ipad will not turn on; just a black screen with the apple symbol on it.

    My nephew was on my IPad then I just frozed on him.  So he tried to reset it but it only shows a black screen and the apple symbol on the front.  The screen has been going off and on, like if it's trying to reset???  Is this a typical problem with the Ipad?  Can the ipad get virus'?  

    Before taking your iPad to your Apple Store, reboot it:  To reboot, hold the power and home buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds (keep holding past the swipe to shut down bar if it appears) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will reset.  If that doesn't solve your problem, the next step would be connect to iTunes and restore your iPad.  If that fails, THEN you take it to Apple.

  • Ipad will not turn off at all and it still has the buffering symbol

    My iPad will not turn on or off.  It has the buffering symbol and it has been buffering for hours.  What do I do?

    connect your ipad to itunes and just restore or update it
    if that does not work put your ipad into DFU mode
    here are some tips:_
    Here are steps to get DFU Mode: Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. (some turn off iPhone here, I do not) Hold both home and power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release power button, keep holding home button until iPhone recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes 10-20 seconds of holding the home button. If the iPhone screen is black (blank) the iPhone is in DFU Mode.
    You can search the Web for even deeper DFU Modes that can be achieved to avoid iTunes Errors, but these techniques cannot be discussed on Apple Supported Forums.

    Hold power and home until apple logo appears.
    And make sure the outlet is good.
    Or try the first but by plugging it in.
