IPad will not wakeup, turn on or communicate with iTunes on my laptop

Our iPad will not wake up when the cover is removed from the screen. Pressing the "Home" button has no effect. Plugging the 30 pin connector in to charge the iPad does not result in the usual "beep." Lastly, iTunes does not recognize the iPad when I connected it to my MacBook Pro via one of the USB ports.
The IPad was purchased with a retina display and is running the latest released version of iOS 7.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Try reset iPad
Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together until you see the Apple Logo.
Note: Data will not be affected.

  • IOS 7 ugrade failed " Error:Device disappeared during timed transition". Phone will not now turn on or sync with itunes, any ideas please?

    iOS 7 ugrade failed " Error:Device disappeared during timed transition". Phone will not now turn on or sync with itunes, any ideas please?

    if a Mac OSX Computer is in near - try iBackup Viewer.
    This is free of charge and can read your backup.
    and thats the main difference. Those tools are reading the saved Data in the backup
    but itunes attempts to restore the data from the backup on your iphone. if there are any corrupted data in the backup - the backup restore goes wrong. this can happen during security software or wrong corrupt data already stored on the iphone.
    if itunes messed up to restore from backup try this one :
    - restore your iphone to factory settings using HT1808 or reset all settings and content direct from iphone
    - rename your iPhone (e.g. iPhone Test)
    - setup your iPhone as new device -> attempt to make a new backup - if successful -
    - click in itunes on restore from backup... and choose your desired backup
    or go to:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(Username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista - Windows 7: \Users\(Username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Pull your complete BackupFolder and try a different PC - copy the BackupFolder on this different PC in the same Path above - start iTunes and see if your Backup is there - attempt to restore from Backup again

  • My ipod touch will not charge, turn on, or appear in itunes, what can i do?

    My ipod touch will not charge, turn on, or appear in itunes, what can i do?
    When i plug it in to my compuer it shows an empty battery with the charge symbol then after a while it shows the apple logo like it is turning on then nothing happens and it goes back to the battery.

    I haven't left it overnight to charge. Is there a difference between letting it charge overnight and an hour or two with no results? The ipod does not even recognize that the cord is attatched.
    I left it on my dresser in my bedroom.

  • My iPod Touch  will not completely turn off or connect to iTunes

    I disconnected my iPod and did what you are supposed to do to turn it off.  The little thing that circles round and round before it turns off all the way will not stop.  It won't turn off no matter what I do.  iTunes says it cannot connect to my iPhone (it is an iPod Touch) and that there is some kind of error.  I went through all of the troubleshooter steps including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.  What should I do?  Will it fix itself when the battery finally dies?

    - Have you tried resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Placing the iPod in recovery mode and then restoring the iPod via iTunes? For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    For the future. saying:
    "I went through all of the troubleshooter steps"
    Really provides us with no information since we do not know what steps you are referring to.

  • IPad will not update apps keeps flashing sign into iTunes passwordA

    IiPad wnot update apps that need updating I have 8.1.3 downloaded but didn't fix error. What to do

    Hi Sherrynash1, 
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities. 
    If apps on your iPad are not updating after you've updated iOS, there are several steps you can try. 
    First, try the solution from this discussion thread:
    App updates won't download on my iPhone, they just say waiting.
    Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
    Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
    Next, try signing out of the iTunes & App Store on your iPad:
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores.
    Tap your Apple ID.
    Tap Sign Out.
    Enter your Apple ID and Password and tap Sign In.
    From:
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store - Apple Support
    You may also want to restart your iPad before signing back in (step 4 above):
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    All the best,

  • My ipad will not sync checked songs, playlists, genres, from itunes.

    I have tried to sync updated checked songs, playlists, and genres, from my itunes to ipad without success.  I have tried over wifi and usb cable.  Neither will work.  What are the possible solutions?  Is this an itunes or ipad problem?

    I don't know how long I had this problem, but I noticed it after recent upgrades in IOS and iTunes. None of the suggestions I found online, including the ones attached to this thread, worked until I saw something about moving your iTunes Media folder to a new location on your computer. This article mentioned that older versions of iTunes used a folder called iTunes Music. I discovered that I had an iTunes Music folder in my music library that had my stuff in it as well as an iTunes Media folder that had none of it. Before following the instructions in the article--written in AppleSpeak which I do not--I thought, I wonder if I can play my music through iTunes on my PC? I clicked on a song and got a message that iTunes didn't find it but would I like iTunes to look for this on my computer? YES! And then iTunes offered to find other similar files and I said YES again. This found all my music but one album. When I clicked on a song from that, the process repeated and all my music is now playable in iTunes on my computer and has synced to my iPad Air. During the process iTunes also asked me for my Audible.com username and password and attempted to bring over my Audible books. (This was not entirely successful since I cancelled my Audible.com account when I stopped doing a lot of road travel. But the titles of books I purchased all appear to be there even if not the complete books.) BTW, iTunes does not seem to have moved my music and Audible.com books out of iTunes Music. So I will now see if there is an easy way to consolidate into the iTunes Media folder without breaking anything to avoid problems in the future.

  • VZ Contact Transfer will not work on Wi-Fi; Synch with iTunes sets up mail

    VZ Contact Transfer goes into a loop with Verizon iPhone connected to your Wi-Fi and does not work.
    Your wi-fi network will come up right after registering VZ iPhone. You could wait until later to allow it to connect.
    Otherwise, disconnect router to force iPhone onto Verizon 3G network and proceed. If you click the change phone number button, it will get you a new access code to your old Verizon contacts from Verizon back up. (Back up before signing up on iPhone)
    Took me hours of fooling around to learn this on another bulletin board.
    Also after hours of fooling around to set up mail, synched iPhone thru iTunes to mail, calendar, etc and the email accounts set themselves up.
    Hope this saves you some time
    Enjoy!

    I don't have an answer for you but from my experience iOS WiFi syncing has always been a hit and miss affair (more miss than hit I'm afraid). I have gotten to the stage where I rarely use the WiFi sync. It is just quicker, easier and much less stressful to use the USB cable. I am having the same issues with all the iOS devices in our family which includes various models of iPhone, iPad and an iPod Touch and have been having them since WiFi syncing was introduced (in iOS5 ???). And then I have not even mentioned my favorite iTunes syncing messages: "Waiting for items to copy" and "Waiting for changes to be applied"!
    iTunes is always extremely quick and eager to pick up the devices but as soon as I click on sync it shows "Looking for iDevice" and then the device disappears. I have found that initiating the sync from the Settings app on the device prevents this issue.
    It does however seem as if it is worse with Windows 7. I did not have so many issues with my previous Windows Vista PC.
    Sorry I cannot be of any help.

  • I charged my ipod touch for a reset .. i put in my passcode and reset it and now it will not take a charge or sync with itunes ive tried 3 diff chargers and will not charge is this an issue with the contacts? all i get on the screen is the usb itunes pic

    help

    The icon is telling you that you have to connect it to your computer.  If iTunes sees the iPod then you should get messages that tells you what to do.

    Help!!!
    I now have a brick for a phone. Just tried to update to 7.1.1 using iTunes and it wipred out the operating system OK but now will not communicate with iTunes or the laptop. I reloaded iTunes and still no luck. If I press and hold the power and home buttons it inly comes up to the same screen showing the lightning cable pointing to iTunes logo. How can I get this running again? Even a factory reset to start would help if possible then I can do a restore. Right now it is worthless.

    Hello HarbourStables,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 5s.  I would be concerned too if my iPhone was stuck in recovery mode and not recognized in iTunes so that you can restore it.
    I recommend the following article for the issue you described and specifically this step:
    5. Use iTunes to restore your device.
    If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
    Find the full article here:

  • IPad will not connect to pc or iTunes, I get a double ping when I connect the USB cable

    My iPad will not connect to either my PC or iTunes. When I plug in the USB cable I get a double ping from the PC. Any Suggestions?

    I have never heard of this "double ping" issue in the before. You say it is coming from the PC so maybe it is a USB problem on the computer. I assume that you have tried another USB port on the PC. You could also try another computer that is running iTunes and see what happens.
    I am not a PC user, so the only other thing I can offer is a link to the Apple support site for an iOS device not being recognized in iTunes for Windows.

  • My iPad will not turn on even though it is fully charged. Any suggestions?

    I was using my iPad earlier this morning without a problem.  I plugged it in to charge because the battery was running low, and I left it alone to charge.  I came back to unplug it and use it, but it will not even turn on even though I checked it maybe an hour ago to find that its progress was at 85 percent.  How do I turn it back on at this point?  I press the power button, the center button, and nothing happens.  Please help, thank you!
