    My IPad will not turn on despite charging all night and all day.  The Apple pops on but then shuts off again.  It does this over and over. How can I fix this and get it up and running again?

    Hey bellabeanbag,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines troubleshooting steps if your iPad is not responding:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3274
    If iPad won't turn on, or the display stops responding
    Follow these steps, testing after each:
    1. Turn the iPad off and turn it on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds, until a red slider appears. Then slide the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    2. Reset iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If iPad still won't respond after you restore it
    Follow these steps, testing after each:
    1. If you receive an alert in iTunes while restoring your iPad, refer to this article for instructions on how to resolve common issues with updating and restoring.
    2. If you cannot restore your iPad in iTunes, or if iTunes does not recognize the device, refer to this article for instructions on restoring using recovery mode.

    Hello, my ipad will not turn on or take a charge. i have tried new cords, into the computer and wall outlet and nothing. Any ideas?

    1. Try a reset
    2. Clean docking port with clean tooth brush
    3. Try another wall socket
    4. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
    5. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)

  • Ipad will not turn off when charging

    When I charge my iphone I usually plug it in and then power it off. I cant get this to work with ipad; it will power down and then restart. How can I get it to stay powered down?

    I posted this on a previous thread a couple of day ago. I don't know exactly how the iPad is supposed to behave, but I was able to experience not being able to shut the device off completely after having done so for weeks. For me it seems to be related to how low the battery is ....
    I experienced this very "bug" last night when I started to charge my iPad. I had never run the battery down to 15% prior to last night. When I plugged in the charger, it would restart, I would turn it off and then it would restart. I repeated this process four or five times and then I finally decided to simply put the iPad to sleep while it was charging, before I turned in for the night.
    When I woke up this morning to a 100% charge I decided to try to repeat the process. I unplugged the iPad from the charger, turned it on and then turned it off again. Then I plugged the charger back in, the iPad turned on and then I turned it off and it stayed off this time.
    My suggestion is that it may be that the iPad is supposed to behave this way when the battery power drops below a certain percentage. I too became a bit concerned at first as I had never experienced that before. Now that the iPad is behaving "normally" again, I am assuming that the device is built to continue to restart while recharging when the battery drains to a low level.
    Mine is working fine, no worries and all is good. Happy holidays!

  • My iPad will not turn on or charge using the 10 w standard charger. I do not get the charge tone at hook up. It was fully charged when I took it to work yesterday. used it once and turned it off. Charger good, "tones" my iPhone when connected.

    iPad completely inop. Paperweight now. Was fully charged when last used yesterday. Charger works with iPhone, but will not give provide "tone" when connected to iPad. Any suggestion?

    I'm not so sure that this will work but it is always worth a try. Reset the iPad.
    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.

  • IPad will not turn on or charge

    I have an iPad 3rd Generation and when I tried to update to iOS 8 it just stopped. The ipad charge logo shows up and I plugged it in and now the battery logo will show for a few seconds and then go away. Then the apple logo will show up and then it will go away. It loops back around and around. How do i fix this? It won't talk to the computer, because the battery is to low.

  • My daughter's ipad will not turn on.  will not charge

    My daughter's ipad will not turn on or charge.

  • My ipad will not turn on/charge, itunes will not recognize ipad, has been charging for hours power and sleep button did not work

    My ipad will not turn on/charge. has been charging for hours. Itunes will not recognize it and i have tried the power/sleep button as well. PLEASE HELP!

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it hasn't been, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, 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 the on-screen 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 (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I will probably go to the Genius bar tomorrow, just thought I'd see if anyone else had a similar problem
    Thanks

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

  • 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?

  • TS1398 first off my ipad will not turn on by just pressing the on button,although its fully charge. ok than when I plug it up its says wifi is not connected

    First off my ipad will not turn on by pushing the start button. when plug up and after touching setting,wi-fi on the left says not connected

    Some things to try first:
    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 drooping 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

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
