IPad wont turn on after shutting it down

I was reading and the screen just went black, the I shut it down and now it doesn't want to start up again, If I plug it into the computer it keeps making a "connecting" sound. I have tried everything, holding the shut down button and the wake up button in. Plugging it into the computer wile holding the wake button and nothing is working, I even slapped it 3 times. Please help!!!!

Don't slap the iPad. It's an electronic device with connections that you could jar loose if you slap it, or drop it. Try a reset.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

HT204204 my apple ipad wont turn on after i updating software

sir,my apple ipad (16gb) wont turn on after i updating software correctly.so still this off position and cant any work.please help me

You took a backup on your computer's iTunes prior to starting the backup, or you have a recent backup ? And you have all of the apps that you had on the iPad in the Apps part of your computer's iTunes library - none of your iTunes downloads are included in a backup (that contains apps settings and contents), the restore will look to pick them up from your iTunes library.
To restore select the iPad on your computer's iTunes and either do File > Devices > Restore From Backup
Or on its Summary tab in iTunes click the 'Restore Backup' button

Hello dbrasif,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPad. It is definitely inconvenient and frustrating when you are not able to access your iPad.
I recommend following these steps for the issue you described:
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:

IPhone wont turn on after shut down during update

i was updating my iphone 4 to the new update the ios 6. i didn't think the update would take as long as it would i had been waiting an hour and it still was not finished. I needed to call people so i figured i would turn it off and contiune with it later. However, instead of turning back on it just shows the apple logo for a few seconds and then goes black. It keeps doing this until i press the home and power button together to get it shut off. I have tried plugging it in a putting it back to factory settings, holding the power button and home key together, charging it and nothing is happening. It doesn't even get reconigze when i plug it into the comupter. If you have any suggestions or something similar has happened please help me. I would go to verizon wireless or something but i am a college studnet where nothing is around for miles and i don't have a car so.... please help i need this to get in touch with people.

Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions.   If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage.   If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check    if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See   "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears,   continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

Ipad air wont turn on after update today?

ipad wont turn on after update today. cannot do a hard reset either...
tried holding the power and home at the same time, still won't turn on suggestions?

How long did you hold the power and home buttons? You need to do that for about 30 seconds, sometimes even more before the apple logo appears.

My ipad wont turn on but its heating

my ipad wont turn on after a nigth charge, pressing home and off at the same time wont work, the ipad is a little bit hot.

That doesn't sound good, have you tried holding down both the Home & Sleep/Wake buttons together for approx 10 seconds - realise you've mentioned this but not sure if you've tried it for that amount of time or until the Apple Logo appears?
Failing this if you plug in the charger and cable and connect it to the mains and your iPad does anything appear on the screen?
Regards,
Steve

Hello ole-gunnar,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is unresponsive after updating your iOS version, then I'd like you to please follow the troubleshooting below.
If you see a black screen
You might need to charge your device before it can turn on. Plug in your device and let it charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad), then try turning it on.
You should see a battery icon while your device is charging. If you continue to see a black screen, reset your device. If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
Restart your device.
If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
If your device gets stuck during startup
When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
Get more help
If you still need help after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support

My ipad wont turn on

JDBCB-
To turn the iPad completely off, you would hold the Sleep button until the "Slide to power off" arrow appeared, and then slide it off. Conversely, to turn it back on you would need to hold the Sleep button for several seconds until the Apple logo appeared. You might think it was not responding if you did not hold the Sleep button long enough.
If that approach does not help, try holding both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow if it appears. If successful, the iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.
Beyond this, you may need to show your iPad to an Apple Store Genius. If the Genius can not solve the problem, you will probably get a replacement iPad on the spot.
