My iPad 2 keyboard doesn't respond to keystrokes.  What is the issue?

My wife was trying to activate cellular data on her iPad 2, but the keyboard didn't respond to strokes when info was requested.  So, I went to email and tried to write an email and the same thing happened.  I have restarted it, but problem persists.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

Try this.
Reboot 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.

    Hi AngusZ,
    The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
    Click on the link below to see more details and screenshots.
    I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
    iPhone, iPad or iPod touch: Not responding or does not turn on
    Resolution
    Follow the appropriate steps for the symptom you're experiencing.
    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 certain controls aren't working as expected, try restarting
    To turn off the device, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
    Slide your finger across the slider to turn off the device.
    To turn on the device, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), try resetting Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds.
    If there is no video, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the 10W USB Power Adapter.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Home button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, let the device to continue to charge until it turns on.
    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.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • I recently got an extension cord for my ipad charger and the first time I used it it worked and now when I plug it in to my ipad It doesn't do anything. What do I do?

    I recently got an extension cord for my ipad charger and the first time I used it it worked and now when I plug it in to my ipad It doesn't do anything. What do I do?

    I think that we all understood what you meant. If the extension cord is no longer working, then return it.
    We are all trying to tell you that you can plug the power block into a standard household extension cord - using the short cord that came with the iPad - and there is no need for the extension cord that you bought.

  • The download function is not working....!! When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads...

    The download function is not working....!! I don't use any add-ons like idm or dap,etc.... When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads... I am currently using Firefox 7.0.1....... Nothing is being downloaded, and I am forced to use IE8 for everything... I even tried re-installing, but doesn't help... I am using Windows 7

    TonyE is correct the plugin version comes with Adobe's Reader X.
    The failure in communication is two parted:
    1. Reader X is not Acrobat (Mozilla Plugin Checker)
    2. Acrobat is not mentioned in the Reader X download Page (Adobe)
    therefore confused clients.
    For readers '''CAUTION''' check the minimum requirements for Reader X.
    Here: [http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/tech-specs.html Adobe's Reader X requirements link]
    Do not waste the time to download (80+MB and Site is Slow) if your machine does not have the resources to execute it. ie. '''aging''' Hardware
    Unfortunately the Adobe DLM only checks the requirements after it has
    downloaded BEFORE the install occurs.
    This is '''very expensive''' for both the sender and receiver
    It might be why they called it READER X and READER 9 will not sense an update...

  • Ipad air is without retina display? what is the retina display?

    ipad air is without retina display? what is the retina display?

    A retina display is a high resolution display. The name comes from the fact that the pixel density of the display is higher that your eyes retina can resolve at normal reading distance.
    The retina display has four times as many pixels as the non retina display.
    As has been stated, the iPad 3, the iPad 4, and the iPad Air all have the retina display.

    I have made some progress.... I can print wirelessly from my printer now, but I can't set the printer itself to be wireless.  I had to move my printer downstairs to where my router is...which is not that convient.   I printed up the page you asked about....and as expected, it says it is off line and there is no IP address.    So now I need to figure out how to make my printer itself wireless.  I did download the HP driver I needed...but I can't access it to do anything else.  It seems l like I am missing a step... or I need to hook up my computer itself to the printer to help get the printer to be wirelss, but I can't hook it up because there is no port for me to do that (no port that looks like a phone jack).  I am guessing I would need a different type of cord, but I am not sure what kind of cord that would be! Ugh!

  • I use photo stills in my iMovie. I want them to last longer than a minute, but when I input 01: 45: 00, to signify one min. and 45 seconds, it doesn't accept it. What is the proper format for inputting minutes?

    I use photo stills in my iMovie. I want them to last longer than a minute, but when I input 1:45:00, to signify one minute and 45 seconds, it doesn't accept it. What's the proper way to input it?

    There are 30 frames in one second of video. So you can specify down to the frame level, which is 1/30th of a second.
    Is the Duration box switching to some other time every time you type in 1:45:00?
    For instance this is a 5 second clip plus 3 frames. To get this set properly I would type in 1:45:00, then click done. I don't know if it is different under older versions of iMovie, as I'm using iMovie '11 for thisi example.

  • I overcharged my ipad 2 battery for about 3 hours. what are the consequences, i overcharged my ipad 2 battery for about 3 hours. what are the consequences

    i overcharged my ipad 2 battery for about 3 hours. what are the consequences? and there are these tiny fibers and dust that enters insideipad screen. how will i clean them. .please help

    Relax, you cannot "over" charge it.  The built in charging protection ensures it will not overcharge the battery or do any damage leaving it plugged in.  Many folks (myself included) leave our iPads and iPhones plugged in overnight, all night, so they are charged and read for use the next day.

  • HT201335 when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?

    Hello Nina Izurin,
    While written for the iPhone, the troubleshooting below can help resolve issues with your iPad's camera, as well.
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

    If you are trying to create a catagory inside a collection, you cannot. Categories are a property (metadata) of the individual titles. You can't create them. You can create collection, but they cannot be nested.

  • Satellite P845-BKS Keyboard doesn't respond

    Hi!
    I've got some problems with keyboard. It respond very slow
    or doesn't respond for pressing.
    If I don't see forte scee it loos lke that.
    Some keys look like not pressed.
    If I press stronger situation is the same.
    It necessary to check all characters and the speed of printing
    bacames too slow.
    At service center master said that he doesn't see any problems.
    He said that we should get used to the keyboard.
    And re-install Windows.
    But I've got the same problems.
    Can anyone have any advice?

    > When can I see version of BIOS?
    You can find the BIOS version within the BIOS settings.
    To access the BIOS you have to press F2 while powering up the unit.
    But I doubt that BIOS update would improve the keyboard functionality.
    In my opinion you should test an external USB keyboard.
    If the external keyboard would work properly, the issue might be related to the internal keyboard.
