It appears my iPad has died...opened this morn

It appears my iPad has died...opened this morn & nothing on dark screen cept image of upright D size battery nearly empty with abit of red at bottom & sort of lightning bolt off to the side....so far, wall charge has done nothing.

Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
Try this first - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

My ipad has the message-This ipad hasn't been backed up in two weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wi-fi. I press ok and nothing happens. I have it locked, plugged into wall, and conected to wi-fi.

Go to Settings, iCloud, and then Storage and Backup. You will then see a button to backup your iPad. It may be that you have much stuff (i.e. photos, apps) for it to do a full backup but you will be able to tell what the estimated backup should be and what it will consist of so that you can choose to prune down items. If you don't want to backup and get rid of the messages you can just turn backup off from this area as well.

I'm not able to message everyone from my iPad has anyone had this issue

I'm unable to message everyone from my iPad. Has anyone had this issue?

Unable to message everyone meaning that you cannot use messages at all? Certain contacts? Some details would really help.

HELP!! My ipad has died!!

Hi.
I was on my ipad last night and had about 15% charge. I went upstairs, when I came down, my ipad had gone off. I just presumed that there had been less charge than I had realised and it had closed down. When I tried to charge it this morning, there was no power there at all. It won't come on, charge or link to my computer. I can't get to the Apple store for a few days so was wondering if this had happened to anyone else, or if anyone has any advice. My ipad is less than 2 months old, I'm lost without it!!

Thank you King_Penguin!
My iPad was 89% charged and the screen went black while I was emailing pictures from it. I tried charging it and connecting it to my laptop and it was unresponsive.
After reading this, I held the sleep and home buttins down similtaneously for 10 seconds and it worked!

After shutting down my iMac last night, Firefox will not open this morning and I don't know why?

My iMac is set to open to my home page My Yahoo with Firefox browser. This morning my Firefox browser is not opening and I don't know why? It does open on my new MacBook Air as per usual. I click on the icon but it does not respond even though I have opened it. this has never happened to me before and I don't know why it's happening now. I did a clean reinstall but that didn't work. Now what?????? With the add-on Troubleshooter should I have asked this question on my iMac using Safari? I am on my MacBook Air asking it.

Actually it does open but nothing shows up. I can't use my iMac unless I use the Safari browser and I want to use Firefox! I'm at my wits end as to how to fix this. I have tried everything that troubleshooting has suggested on Mozilla support. Help!!!!!!!!

Photos missing from ipad that were there this morning

Yesterday I lost my iPhone. It has not been found and must be turned off.
I had hundreds of photos on the iPhone that were synced with iCloud.
THis morning I was able to see those images on my iPad and so was happy they were not lost. tonight I went into photos in my iPad and the photos are no longer there.
Where did the photos go and how do I get them back?
All my contacts and notes still seem to be synced.
Please help.

Yes iCloud is being used. It syncs my photos mail notes etc with my iPhone and iPad.
LIke me I said yesterday morning I could see photos taken on my iPhone on my ipad. Later that night when the phone went missing the photos have disappeared.
i Checked and in the settings I have auto backup turned on.

Idvd won't open but opened this morning

I used idvd last night and this morning and it worked and burned fine. Now I need to burn a new DVD for a school project due tomorrow and it just won't open. I've restarted the computer several times. I haven't installed anything new since when it last worked. Can someone help me open idvd. Or is there any other software that will burn the video I just edited? Or should I reinstall idvd?
i'm using a macbook pro that's only 2 months old.
Thank you

Do you own roxio toast? That will work also.
Or if you simply wish to make a copy of an exiting iDVD then you can use apple's disc utilities to do this as well. What is it exactly you are trying to accomplish? And how much Hard Drive space is remaining on your main HD. If it's less than 20GB, then start making some more room on the drive.
Also, please search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.
Hope this is Helpful & Solves the problem but if not just come on back.

ReminderFox has disappeared! This morning, both from my laptop and desktop; ReminderFox is missing. Can you suggest how I might restore this vital tool?

When I closed down on Sunday, ReminderFox was working normally; visible in its usual place on the top toolbar.
On booting up this morning, ReminderFox is missing!
So I booted up my desktop. ReminderFox is also missing.
I am lost without ReminderFox

You can download again : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/reminderfox/?src=search but the question is how disappear ? do you download something that causes that problem ? strange !
can you see it in add-on area ?

Hi, my My ipad has a message'this ipad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks. backup happens when this ipad is plugged in, locked and connected to wifi' what do I do as I can't get it to do anything, won't let me swipe in. This message remains on the screen.

Hi, I have a problem with my ipad, it has this message on the screen and will not allow me to do anything at all not even swipe to open. It's very frustrating to say the least, can anyone help me with step by step instructions.

Not backing up should not restrict you from using the iPad (if it did, there would be a lot of people in trouble)
Try restarting the iPad, holding both the home and power button down until you see the Apple Logo and then try to log in.

My new iPad has died!!

I have a new (1month old) iPad 3 and it wont restart after I shut it down because it was behaving oddly. I have tried holding the power and go buttons down for more than 30 Seconds but it is dead! it was fully charged when I picked it up but have tried leaving it on the charger for 10 mins before trying the usual reset option.
It started when I tried to tap on Safari which imediately shut down before it had completed booting up. This happened every time I tried so I thought I would shut down the iPad and re-start it. It shut down ok but will not start again!!!

Yeh. Thanks for the advice. It was kinda what I expected really, but its a bit of a pain!!
I have tried plugging it to the pc but that did nothing. There has been no damage to it. It all looks fine and I have examined it closely in case those pesky kids had got their hands on it!! But it does look fine. Its off to the Apple Store in the morning for me!!!

It appears my iPad has died...opened this morn
