My ipad air is stuck on the apple logo

I really need some help, because I was using my iPad today and all of a sudden it crashed went to blue screen and turned off. Then I managed to turn my ipad air on, and its stuck on the darn apple logo for ages (hours). I searched ways on google to recover it, and I tried to do the recovery mode thing with iTunes (which worked), but then it said this ipad could not be restored, an unknown error occurred (4005). So I'm really lost on what to do, because this has never happed to me before.

Hi PinkUnicorn95,
Try doing these steps:
1. Quit out of iTunes
2. Re-Start the computer, (I hope this is a Mac computer)
3. Connect your iPad again and open iTunes,
If these steps doesn't work:
Download apple Configurator. (This is a apple app, which is freely available in the app store)
Install this and connect your iPad,
Using the default settings, (Leaving supervision off) press configure.
(This will download the latest drivers and update your device)
When this is done, you can connect to iTunes and put a backup you have on the iPad
NOTE:
If your iPad is not been backed-up as the latest version, then make sure to select " don't update device" on apple Configurator. 
Let me know how you go.
All the best,
B

  • I tried restoring my Ipad 2 and when it was trying to update the new software, this thing pops up saying an error has occured cannot update software. My ipad is still stuck on the apple logo.

    I tried restoring my ipad 2 and when its trying to extract the new software this pop up appears on the screen and says ERROR: cannot update software or something. My ipad still doesnt return to the home screen. It's still stuck on the apple logo. I only had this for a year. Is it broken?

    If your ipad had no problems before, then it is your computer then may fail you. Try to restart computer and ipad.Try to disable antiviruses. If that happens again and you have apple store close by you can set up appointment, or try another computer.

  • Help! My iPad 3 is stuck with the Apple Logo, and iTunes is unable to detect my iPad.

    I have a iPad 3 Wifi+Cellular. I just turned it on, and it's been on the Apple logo for 1 hour! What should I do? I thought I should go to iTunes, to see if I can do anything. But iTunes is unable to detect the iPad! I've tried all my USB ports, numerous times, and it is not working! What should I do? (I think I'm out of Warranty).

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...

  • HT201210 my ipad 1 gets stuck with the apple logo and doesn t work any more. any suggestions how to fix it please? when trying to restore through itunes i keep getting error 1603

    I can't restore and make my ipad work. every time i start restoring it it gets stuck and error message (1603) pops on the screen.

    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.

  • My ipad is stuck on the apple logo and wont return to the home screen. I plugged it into my itunes but I don't know what to do from there. Can someone please help?

    Hi, I'm having trouble with my Ipad 2. I was recently playing a game and my ipad just shut off on me. Then when I turned it back on it was stuck on the Apple Logo and it won't go to the home screen at all. I plugged it in my itunes but I don't know what to do from there. I left it charged hoping the apple logo would dissappear but it didn't and now for some reason the battery is always dead.  I really need help. Does anybody have any suggestions? Please.

    Did you try rebooting the iPad? You will need to have some battery power for 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.

    Using the Charger that came with your iPad... Connect it to the Mains for at least 30 - 40 minutes...
    Then try a reset...

    You may have to restore your iPad using Recovery mode, but try a reset first. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons when you see the logo. This takes about 10-15 seconds.
    IF the update will not complete or you see the connect to iTunes message on the screen, you have to restore your iPad.

  • My iPad mini is stuck on the Apple symbol. I tried a reset and it shut down. But when I turned it back on the problem persists thanks for any help

    my iPad mini is stuck on the Apple symbol. I have tried a reset and it shut down. When I turned it back on, the problem persists. Thanks for any help.

    If the reset doesn't help, the next step would be to restore the device to factory settings using iTunes on a computer. If you can backup the iPad first, do so and then restore to factory settings. If it all works out properly, you can restore the backup after you finish. If you didn't or can't backup, the iPad will be erased when you restore to factory settings.

    IF you can't restore that way, the next step would be to try using recovery mode.

  • My iPad is stuck with the apple logo!!! Please help me

    My iPad is stuck with the apple logo. it just shut off, and I turned it on, and the apple logo won't go away. sometimes the screen goes black, and then the apple logo shows back up. Help!!!!!!

    Have you tried rebooting your iPad?
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 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.
    If that does not work, you can try restoring your iPad iOS Software.
