My ipad 2 turned off  and won't go back on .

My ipad 2 turned itself off while watching sky. I assumed the battery went but it was at 50 odd per cent while watching the ipad. I plugged it in to charge it up. It didn't charge for ages and when it did it only remained at 1%. The next day it finally went to 7% but it has turned itself off again and won't go back on. I have reset it on the ipad itself but my iTunes on the laptop doesn't recognise it. It flashes the apple logo as if it is turning on but that's it. Anyone any ideas? Is it completely gone? It didn't fall or drop or anything. Thanks

Start here and see if you can get iTunes to see the iPad agin. If you can, try restoring the device using iTunes.

  • 15-r018dx display turns off and won't come back on

    I have a HP 15-R018DX laptop that I just bought and when I close the display, it turns the display off and won't come back on when I flip it open again.  I've already changed the Power Options so that the "what happens when you close the display" options are all set to "nothing happens".  Despite that, each time I close the display and open it again, the display goes blank and stays blank, though the status LEDs on the left side tell me that the compuer is still on and not hibernated, etc.
    The only way to return the display to normal is to push the power button (I have it set to hibernate when I push the power button) and then turn it back on again after it hibernates.  Then, the display is illuminated again like normal.  No amount of touching the touchpad, it's buttons, or keyboard keys will return the display to normal once it turns off after the lid is closed and re-opened.  Any ideas on what's happening and how to make the display turn on when opening the display again? Thanks in advance!

    I was also facing the same probs..
    bt when i reinstalled OS, nw alomost every part s ok except the brightness part..
    The option to adjust brightness seems unavailable..

  • Q5 turned off and won't switch back on

    Hi,
    My friend went on holiday and the Q5 he was turned itself off and won't turn back on again.

    Connect your Q5 to the OEM charging cable. Let it charge a few hours.
    Then, with it still connected to the charger,
    Restart: Press and hold the upper edge power button about 20-30 seconds, ignore the 3-2-1 timer and hold until the screen goes black and you see the red LED.
    Do you see any LED or screen activity on thte deivce?

  • IPhone 3G turns off and won't come back on unless plugged in

    My iPhone 3G shut off and wouldn't come back on unless plugged into the charger after taking it off the charger it works for about 30 minutes then shuts off again and I have to plug it back in to get it to come back on. Anyone know what the problem could be?

  • MacBook Pro 2012. Replaced hard drive yesterday by apple. Went home working and now it turns off and won't come back on till I plug it in... Help!

    Have had a ton of issues with my Mac. Went to the apple store in march and they said my processor could be going bad and they basically did nothing. Yesterday I was using my computer put it to sleep. 10 minutes later I opened it up and it completely crashed. Drove 2 hours to get to apple because I am away at school and need my computer for finals. They replaced my hard drive and it was working perfectly fine till today. Now it turns on and works and then shuts off and it won't come back on till I plug it in. It's completely charged and I need it for my classes. I have apple care but I can't keep driving back to apple every day. I have a apple appointment tomorrow but this is ridiculous. Has anyone had any of these issues? What's it going to take for them to replace my computer I can't even live a day without it right now. And by the way. I could not even get any of my data off my old hard drive. So basically nothing is on this computer right now.

    Let them know how this is inconveniencing you.  For a replacement, I believe Apples general rule of thumb is if it comes in for the 3rd time for the same issue they will replace it, but it may vary by store.  It cant hurt to ask for a replacement.

  • I was updating my phone and it turned off and won't come back on

    I was trying to update my iphone 5s yesterday and it shut off and now it won't come back on. I've had it plugged in all night and have tried holding the home and sleep button but nothing works

    Try holding the home and sleep buttons for as long as a minute.  Try it a few times.
    Are you sure it's plugged into a good outlet using a good charger and cable?
    Else, take it in to Apple and let them look at it... you have a 1 year warranty.

  • My iPad turned off and won't come on

    Help

    Hold both the home and lock buttons for about 15 seconds until the white Apple logo comes up in the screen. This is called a soft reset and usually fixes this issue in iDevices.

    my Ipod nano 7th generation turned off and won't turn back on. what should I do?

    If you have done the reset and nothing appears and you are sure it still has a charge and it doesn't turn on, you may request for a replacement if it still covered by the warranty. Cheers!

    My phone just turned off and won't turn back on. I've read the posts saying to hold down the home and power button but my power button is broke. Any suggestions?

    There is a thread or two about the home button and how to fix it at least temporally.  It sounds like some people have found it to be a rather permanent fix.  Do search on something like "Home button won't work".  It has something to do with putting the charging cable into the phone and applying a little extra pressure upward on the key.  Don't take my word for it though look for the thread/s.  You said originally that your "Power" button was broken and the thread I have seen is about the Home Button. 

  • My iphone 5c turned off and won't turn back on. What do I do?

    My iphone 5c turned off and won't turn back on. What do I do?

    Try resetting the device: Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). If the Apple appears, the reset is in progress, and the Slide to Unlock screen will display shortly.
    Make sure the battery is charged. If you think it may not be charged, then plug the device into the charger and try resetting after 5 minutes or so.

  • HT3728 Time Capsule turned "off" and won't turn back "on"

    My Time Capsule shut down last night--completely turned off--and won't turn back on. It felt warm, so I unplugged it overnight. I tried plugging it back in this morning and it still doesn't have power. I've also tried plugging it in somewhere else, and the hard reset as described on the Apple Support Website. But still no power. The green/amber light doesn't come on at all. Suggestions?

    the power supply is cooked in its own internal oven bag..
    It sounds like it is beyond warranty but if you have applecare on a Mac that will also cover the TC if it was purchased within 2years of the computer..
    Otherwise a self - repair is possible or help from a repairer if you happen to live in an area.. to Apple it is a sealed unit and they will not help you.

  • My iPhone 3gs just randomly turned off and won't turn back on

    I was just using my phone, and nothing happened. As of lately picture mail, and videos have been sending as a text message to other iPhone users even while connected to wifi. My phone just randomly turned off and won't turn back on. I just got it in July so its not very old and I have the hard protection case on it. Is there any way that I can reset it or something?

    Hold the home and power button down at the same time.
