My ipad just switched off and won't turn on again ?

My ipad just switched off and won't turn on again?

Have you tried forcing a reboot? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. If you see a silver apple it's rebooting.

My ipad mini was overheat and won't turn on,

If the reset doesn't work, you may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

IPhone acting weird and won't wake from sleep.

Hi All,
I have a first Gen. iPhone and loved it until last weekend. The screen went white and wouldn't turn off, reset, hard reset, nothing. Even though I start with a full battery I can leave it connected to my Macbook overnight and after hours and hours the BIG red low battery symbol will be displayed with a sliver of red and the connected to a power source shows. After a normal charge time it will show a full charge and work fine as long as it stays hooked to the USB port. After that sometimes I can unplug it and it will work fine as long as I don't let the phone go to sleep if I do I have to start the whole process of waiting hours for the iPhone to be recognized by my Macbook. Other times it goes to sleep and can't wake up, no reset or hard reset or hooking it back to the USB port will wake it up or cause it to be recgonized by my Macbook.
Also sometimes as I'm trying to wake the iPhone with the Home+sleep button procedure the screen will come alive and show scrolling vertical lines instead of the all white screen.
Any ideas? Oh ya', the iPhone is about 5 weeks past warranty

My iPad Mini is frozen and won't turn on.

My iPad mini was frozen in an app. I rebooted by pressing the home button and sleep button at the same time. However, it won't turn on. It is stuck in the power up screen, with the apple. It won't go past this. Please help.
Thanks...

Creative zen 4gb acting strange and won't turn on manua

My Creative zen 4gb can only be turned on when I connect it first to the computer, and after that, I can turn it on without the use of a computer. But if I don't use for a few hours, it won't turn on again, and I have to connect it to the computer again ( I can turn it on again, if I had just turned it off though). Even if battery is full, I get the same problem. I've also used the recovery tool to update the firmware, nothing's changed.
I've also done a clean up and reboot of the player. I still have the same problem. I've also noticed now, after doing all these things that when I play music, after a few songs, maybe 30-40 minutes after, it turns off by itself, and if I get to turn it on, it does a rebuilding of the files. Any idea how I can fix this? I've only had this player for a month or two only. I haven't done a format though... Thanks.

Your Zen is probably faulty/defecti've contact Creative.

Just been watching netflix and my ipad mini switched off and won't turn on again no matter what i do. any ideas?

I have tried pressing both the home button and the power button and nothing happens at all. When I plug it into the mains nothing happens and the same with connecting to my computer. the battery was at around 60% a few minutes before it died so i have no clue as to what has happened :/

1. Reset iPad (ignore)
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

IPad Display gets black and won't turn on again

Hello,
the display of my iPad sometimes abruptly turns black as I would put it in Sleep Mode. Although there isn't anything displayed I know that my iPad is still working (from e.g. game music etc.). When I try to reset it (pressing Sleep and Home Button for 10 sec) the Apple logo appeares but it is only visible when I put light directly on it (e.g. sitting with the sun in the back shining on my iPad, hard to explain). However after waiting for some hours (sometimes more than a day) I can wake it up as nothing would have happened.

That sounds like a hardware problem and I would suggest that you take it to an Apple Store and have the iPad evaluated. It sounds like the screen is going bad and I don't think that restoring the device would do any good - since that would be a software fix.

My Ipad stopped working and won't turn back on.

My ipad stopped working suddenly and won't turn back on. What can I do to turn it back on?

Assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I just. Bought an iPad air 2 about two weeks ago. Was working great then it froze on me shut off and won't turn on now?

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
No content is affected by this procedure.

I have the first IPad. My iPad shut off at 72 percent battery life and won't turn back on.

Not charging.
1. Reset iPad; hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo
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

Ipad is dark and won't turn on

My ipad is dark and won't turn on. It has battery power. When I turn it on, there is a faint glow, but I can't see any of the applications. I had this happen last week and when I connected it to the computer it worked and has worked until yesterday when it did the same thing. But, connecting it to the comptuer doesn't help. I think I updated it to the latest version of software, but since it's not showing anything I don't know.
Any ideas? I am so bummed!

Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

IPad Mini overheated and won't turn on.

Hello everyone, I would like to kindly ask if I can replace my ipad mini 32gb wifi +cellular if I bring it tomorrow at the apple store. I am from the Philippines and I also bought my ipad mini here also. I think it is still covered by my 1 year warranty because I bought it March last year (2013).
This is what happened. I was charging my iPad Mini yesterday and left it for a few hours, after 3 hours I think, I checked it and it was hot and won't turn on anymore. I immediately unplugged the charger and tried to reboot it and also tried connecting it on itunes but it didn't solve my problem. It stayed like that for 7 hours and then cooled down afterwards, until now it's not working.
So yeah, if it won't turn on because it overheated or for some other reasons, Can it be replaced? Will there be any payments?

We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
If not then whether you might need to pay will depend upon what the store says and whether they think that it's covered by the warranty. Does the iPad have signs of damage anywhere on it e.g. dents ? Only the store will be able to tell you whether it's covered or not.

IPod 80gb turns of by itself and won't turn on, iPod 80gb turns off by itself and won't turn on

My iPod is acting a little weird lately. It completely turns of all by itself and won't turn on back again. It turns on only when I connect it to the PC. I taught it was the problem with the battery but, it happens even when it is fully charged. I was watching some videos right after I had it fully charged and all of a sudden it turned off. I tried turning it on but, it didn't work and I connected to my PC, the apple logo showed up slowly and started working as usual. Please help me to sort this out.

Try a hard reset the next time this happens to see if that helps. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, you may want to consider restoring your iPod via iTunes to rule out software corruption.
