My iPad is not turning off. What can I do?

My iPad is not turning off. What can I do? Tried to find something about in the internet and has found nothing.

I really don't know what else to try except for restoring the iPad - or letting the battery totally drain, recharge the iPad and then see if it will work.
The problem with letting the battery drain is I would be afraid that you would not be able to turn the iPad on. However, usually when you recharge the iPad, it turns on again by itself.
Anyway, in the meantime, until you can get this resolved -  you don't have to turn the iPad off for my reason other than to restart for troubleshooting purposes. If the iPad will recharge and if it goes to sleep OK, there is no reason to have to turn it off.
When exactly happens when you try to reboot? Does the red slider at appear at all?

    My ipad will not turn off what can i do ?

    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.
    Let it start up completely and then you can shut down if you want to do so.

  • My 1st generation iPad will not turn off and I have performed the suggested fix. What's next?

    My iPad will not turn off. I have done the off/sleep key home button procedure.

    Just to be perfectly clear, when you reset the iPad by hod,ing down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen, that is a way of resetting the system and restrating the device. If you want to shut down, you still have to hold down on the power button until the slider appears and then slide to the right to shut the iPad off.
    IS this what you are doing and if so what happens when you try to shut down? Describe what happens in detail.

    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button until you see the Apple Logo show up on the screen. This is a Reset. See if that helps. Also, make sure it's charged up :-)

  • My iPad does not start. What can be the problem

    My iPad does not start. What can be the problem

    Does anything happens when you try to switch it on ? If not, then 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 reset ? 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.

  • Will not:  rotate screen, camera will not work, iPad will not turn off, sound on side.

    Ipad will not turn off, sound button does not work, camera does not work,  screen will not rotate.  Have new ios and update.

  • My iPad is not charging. What can I do ?

    My iPad is not charging. What can I do ?

    Are you using an iPad charger? If you're using iPhone ones they don't work well because they give out half the power the iPad wants.
    If you're using the right charger, try giving your ipad a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds until the Pad reboots. Then try to charge again.
    You can also try swapping out the charger if you have a spare, and the cable, to see if they're the issue.

  • My iPad will not turn off

    My iPad will not turn off. The power button no longer seems to do anything. Any ideas.

    Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.

  • HT201412 My ipad does not turn off...i tried pressing the Sleep/Wake button and Home button for 10 secs but no response. Also, the screen is not rotating on portrait or landscape view...any suggestions?

    My ipad does not turn off...i tried pressing the slep/wake button and home button for more than 10 secs but nothing hapened. Also, the screen is not rotating on portrait and landscape views...

    While this could potentially be a hardwar issue:
    Try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    If the reset doesn't work, you may need to consider restoring the iPad to factory settings

  • HT201257 Fan on my MacBook Pro came on and will not turn off, what could be wrong or how do I fix?

    The fan on my MacBook Pro came on out of no where and will not turn off. The computer is not heated nor are any applications running in the background. The seems to be going on full blast. Before now it worked fine. Would turn on or off when need. Please advice what could be wrong or if ther is anything I can do to fix or troubleshoot. Computer is not even a year old.

    LexSchellings: Now I know why you wished me luck and hoped everything would clear up asap hehe. I've been doing some reading and it is quite possible that my MBP late 2011 is sadly part of the probably million of MBP's out there with logic board issues. I am glad I am under warranty (still have to wait and see what apple techs decide on my comp) and sad that my comp will probably be done with in a few years. Not even 4 as it turns out. I can honestly say my old iBook G4 was amazing gave me 8 great years. Never had an issue with it.
    Something funny is that about 10 to 15 mins ago the fan on my comp (the only indicator I got of any issue going on) quite down and the comp was working perfect. It has been running really slow since I noticed the fan being over worked even if nothing is running. Then it started up again and once again quite down, functioned well for like 10 seconds and started being noisy and slow again.
    However there is an issue that bugs me, if according to my AHT results it is a faulty logic board how come my comp is still functioning? Of course being slow and noisy. I've read on some sad stories on here
    Wish me more luck and send me lots of good vives. Going to need them. Especially if I end up not being able to fix the comp.
    Apple is letting me down and to think I just purchased an iPad mini for xmas :/

  • Ipad will not turn off at all and it still has the buffering symbol

    My iPad will not turn on or off.  It has the buffering symbol and it has been buffering for hours.  What do I do?

    connect your ipad to itunes and just restore or update it
    if that does not work put your ipad into DFU mode
    here are some tips:_
    Here are steps to get DFU Mode: Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. (some turn off iPhone here, I do not) Hold both home and power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release power button, keep holding home button until iPhone recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes 10-20 seconds of holding the home button. If the iPhone screen is black (blank) the iPhone is in DFU Mode.
    You can search the Web for even deeper DFU Modes that can be achieved to avoid iTunes Errors, but these techniques cannot be discussed on Apple Supported Forums.

  • My i pod touch crashed and is displaying a blank yellow screen and won't turn off what can i do?

    My I pod crashed and now displays a blank yellow screen i can't switch it off what can I do.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPad does not turn off

    This is very odd.
    I need to use my iPad with Keynote and a projector. I have done this before by turning the iPad off (hold down the top button until the "Slide to turn off" appears but suddenly the darn thing does not turn off.
    It LOOKS like it is turning off - I slide the red slider and get a spinning ball for a brief time, but if I plug in or just hit the bottom switch, bingo, it pops back on instantly.
    My first thought was maybe I'm just not giving it enough time, but no, I gave it fifteen minutes and it still was not really off.
    Now - I just tried it again and of course it worked, making a liar out of me
    Has anyone else had this problem? Am I doing something wrong somehow?

    my story it's incredible...
    I bouth Ipad Wi-fi 64Gb 3 days ago in Germany. all very nice...i bouth some new programs, books and ......the Ipad now does not turn on anymore!!!

    Should I fly to another country to get my Ipad fixed?
