My ipad has a itunes icon and a charger connection but won't go to the home screen

I tried to update my iOS system on my iPad 2 yesterday and it never went through because I didn't have it connected to the charger. This morning when I tried to update again I got the same problem. The only differenc is that I was able to get to my homescreen once before the screen blacked out all execpt for the iTunes icon and the charger cord symbol. Now I cannot get any screen to appear on the iPad besides that. I have tried plugging my charger into the iPad and the symbol only goes away when I hold the power button. It reappears when I hold the power button. Is this normal for the new updating system?

YOU ARE IN RECOVERY MODE (something went wrong with update)
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

How do I turn on my ipad, I just got it and I don't know how to get to the home screen. Also, is itunes free on the ipad

How do I turn on my ipad, I just got it and I don't know how to get to the homescreen. Everytime I turn it on there is a black screen, the white charger, and the blue itunes circle. Also, are itunes free.?

You must activate the iPad within iTunes on your computer. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes on your computer (read the minimum requirements for the iPad printed on the iPad box) and connect the iPad to your computer with the supplied cable to a 2.0 USB port - not a port on a hub- a port on your computer. iTunes should start and take you through the process.
iTunes on the iPad is a store where you purchase media - it is not the music player. The iPod app is the music player. Both apps are pre installed on the iPad.

This is an iPad user to user forum, so you are not addressing Apple. Depending on how many user helpers are on-line, it may take several hours, or longer, to get a response.
Try this - 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.) No data/files will be erased.

You will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

to contact the iTunes Store.

I have deleted my iCloud app from my iPad and cannot get it back. I've reset the home screen, everything else appears but not that

Not sure if I had to submit my question:
I have deleted the iCloud app from my iPad and cannot get it back. I've reset the home screen, everything else appears but not that

There isn't an iCloud app, I'm not sure what it is that you have deleted, but it isn't iCloud.

When you delete an app from your homescreen it is still in the cloud, does that mean you still have the app, and how do you get it back on to the home screen

When you delete an app from your homescreen it is still in the cloud, does that mean you still have the app, and how do you get it back on to the home screen. new to ipad so do not know much. Anybody know.p

As long as the app remains in the store then you can re-download it via the Purchased tab in the App Store app, or via the Purchased Link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
Similarly ibooks can be re-downloaded, and depending upon what country that you are in then music, films and tv shows may also be re-downloadable (if they remain available in the store).

HT1391 I have just taken over a used iPad and I logged in with my iTunes ID and tried to install some apps. It says they are installed but they are not on the home screen.???

Cannot seem to find the apps that it says are installed. They are not on my home screen

If you've checked all of your homescreens and app folders and can't find them (there is a limit of 11 homescreens that are visible), and you can't find them via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then are thay hidden by an ap age rating in Settings > General > Restrictions ?
If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find them after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I have an ipod touch and the contacts icon is missing. How can you add it to the home screen?

I can't find the contacts icon... How can you add this to the home screen

Every iPod touch has a contacts icon. It might be hiding. You can try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.
