My brand new iPad 2 goes black/unresponsive when I plug it in to charge.

I completely restored it to manufacture settings, even though I just got it today.
When I plug it in the screen goes black, and it is non responsive to home and sleep button.
Even when I unplug it i get nothing.
A soft reset solves it ... until I plug it back in to charge.
Is this a settings issue maybe?
Any help is appreciated!!

    1. Reset iPad
    2. Try another wall socket
    3. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
    4. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)
    5. Clean Lightning port with compress air or new paint brush

  • Brand new iPad Mini Retina won't charge when its connected to my PC

    I just opened up my brand new iPad Mini Retina and attempted to plug it into my PC and set it up. The iPad quickly recognizes my PC, briefly displays the charge symbol then immediately displays "not charging." I have attempted to plug the iPad into the wall, and it charges just fine. All the cables I'm using are straight out of the box which I bought right from the Apple Store so I know its not any of those. My laptop is fully charged and also plugged into the wall, so I know its not my computer. I also double checked everything by plugging my iPhone 5 into my computer (with the new iPad lightening cable) and it charges/syncs just fine. Im stumped, please help me fix my brand new iPad Mini Retina.

    I know you said PC, for for others that have an iMac with USB 3 ports, they can put out extra power to charge an iPad.  (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4049?viewlocale=en_US)

  • I have just bout a brand new ipad mini and commenced setting it up. I had to leave it for a while and switched it off. When I came back to switch it on it asked for a pass code and I haven't set one up as far as I know. Anyone know whats going on!

    I have just bought a brand new Ipad mini and started setting it up. I had updated to os7.4 and after it finshed installing I had to leave it before answering all the set up questions. When I switched it back on it asked me for a pass code which as far as I'm concerned, hasn't been set up yet. Anyone know whats going on!

    Hi robertbpage,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  If the iPad mini is asking for a password that you do not know, this article has steps you can take:

  • Brand New iPad 3 has a jiggly screen and black boxes across the screen in different apps

    My mother purchased a brand new iPad 3 about 1 week ago.  The screen has begun to shake while she is in the apps.  (This is not the shaking that icons do on when you hold an app down so you can rearrange.)  When this happens the screen will go blank when her hand is near it and reappear when she moves it away.  Also, in some apps, I have experienced this in the App Store and Facebook, black boxes cover the screen so that you cannot see what is behind them.
    We have tried shutting it down completely, but that doesn't seem to be a fix.
    I have been searching for others with this problem and haven't found any.  Help would be appreciated.  Given the sporadic nature (but often enough to be a bother), I'm hesitant to go to the Genius Bar for fear it wouldn't do it then. 

    I've had the same problem with Big Black squares covering the screen. And a few times the screen has split vertical in the middle and pushed everything in the on half a little down, making it very difficult to read text as the lines was cut in half.
    I first experienced it in Mail, and then in Safari. I noticed that it is only covering content, not the App bar and When I scrolled down, the boxes were staying On the spot On the page. I figure it must be a software problem as it moves alting with the rest of the content, so I tried uenig Chrome instead, but yesterday the same ting happened.
    I have tryed to take a screen dump, but it gets completely black
    Its not warm When the problem occours.
    Anyone with a solution?

  • HT4437 I bought a brand new iPad 3 and an Apple TV, both connected to the same wpa protected wifi network from home. It worked for a day, but when I woke up, the Apple TV couldn't be found anymore by neither iPad, MacBook or iPhone. Any clue? Thanks!

    Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
    Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
    Thanks again!

  • Brand new iPad 2 32GB with 3G. When I hooked it up to my computer, the capacity bar had 11.4GB full in the "other" category even though i haven't synced anything yet.

    Brand new iPad 2 32GB with 3G. When I hooked it up to my computer, the capacity bar had 11.4GB full in the "other" category even though i haven't synced anything yet. What does the "other" category consist of and how can I fix this?

    The iPad was sealed in the box when I got it. It had the plastic screen protector wrapped all around it and when I powered it on for the first time it displayed the "connect to iTunes for setup" message displayed. The only other thing I can think of is if the person I bought it from had ordered it through Verizon on and the iPad was set up on a number on his pre-existing verizon account. My question is should I just keep using it and consider myself lucky? Since there is no way for Verizon to charge me for the usage because I never signed a contract. I realize that if it is on the account belonging to the person I bought it from, they will eventually figure this out and shut it off. But I might as well use it in the meantime right?

  • Have personal Apple ID account which allows me to download apple apps but when I go to update the apps Apple ID pops up thats not mine and cannot log in to update apps.  Brand new IPAD never any other user

    Have personal Apple ID account which allows me to download apple apps but when I go to update the apps Apple ID pops up thats not mine and cannot log in to update apps.  Brand new IPAD never any other user

    Is the AppleID listed in Settings --> Store and Settings --> iCloud the same?
    If it is a totally different ID and not a slight variation of yours, I would definitely take it back to the store. You may have bought a returned item that had been setup previously.

  • Plugged in brand new ipad that is still showing the 'itunes' and usb lead as a sign to connect to itunes before it will even start up and my computer is detecting the Apple IPAD 2 camera but Itunes is not picking it up? whats going wrong?

    If you're really trying to use Windows 2000, then that's the problem. As you'll see on the box, you need at least XP/SP3.

  • My brand-new iPad Mini has Siri unresponsive. This happens quite frequently and I find it very frustrating. I have a strong Wi-Fi connection. Has anyone had this problem and fixed it?

    Let me also say that this has been functioning this way out of the box...this is not new or a result of cookies or a full cache.

  • Help with broken screen on new ipad plee I have brand new iPad when the smart cover slipped.  Any ideas on cost to replace screen as it has shattered. Thanks in advance.

    I have just dropped my brand new iPad when the smart cover slipped.  Any ideas on cost to replace screen as it has shattered. Thanks in advance.

    Flat rate $299.
    Actually, they won't replace the screen, they'll replace it.  The following is a C&P from the link that I gave you.
    "If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below."

  • My brand new Ipad 2 is not charging the battery with py PC thru USB. Is that normal? When I plug it directly into the wall, it works... Thanks! Sam

    My brand new Ipad 2 is not charging the battery with py PC thru USB. Is that normal? When I plug it directly into the wall, it works... Thanks! Sam

    It talks extensively about charging in the user guide, and how USB ports on PCs and older Macs may not provide sufficient power to charge the iPad.  The user guide is available for free from the iBook store (accessed directly via the iPad iBooks app).
    My iPad charges fine when plugged in to the back of my iMac, but I would always prefer to use the mains adaptor to save the strain on my USB circuits (which can wear out if used heavily to power external devices).

  • Brand new ipad- it won't auto sync with my PC

    I expected to pull out my brand new iPad and plug it into my laptop (windows) and it would be a simple automatic process to make them communicate. The iPad comes with this tiny card that makes it sound completely easy and automatic. That did not happen. I've re-booted my laptop and re-plugged in iPad. I've downloaded newest itunes. Nothing happens in my itunes to detect the iPad like it does when I plug in my ipod. The only thing on the iPad screen is a graphic of the USB cord pointing to and iTunes icon. then it goes black again.
    Help! I'm very disappointed that I'm wasting so much time searching for help on something I've spent so much money to invest in, hoping it would simplify my life. So far, not so good.

    Do you have any other iOS devices like an Iphone of ipod touch that connect to the computer?  Also make sure your computer meets the minimum requirements, and make sure you're connecting to a 2.0 usb port directly on the computer, not on a hub.

  • How do I transfer all my data from an iPad Air wifi 32 GB to a brand new iPad Air 2 64GB?

    I received right now a brand new iPad Air2 wifi 64 GB. How do I transfer ALL MY DATA from another iPad Air wifi 32 GB ?

    Back up your old one. I use and prefer iTunes, but back up all the data, etc.
    Then unplug it. Plug your new one in and go through the setup steps. When you see the option to set up as new or restore from the backup you just made, choose that and your new iPad will be a near clone of the old one.
