My iPad just went blank, how can I reboot

I was trying to send series of photos taken on my iPad to colleagues and suddenly my iPad went blank and refused to come on, how do I reboot the system to go back to normal?

Hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release. Then wait for the ipad to boot back up.

My mini ipad just went black? can't turn it off or anything

my ipad mini just went black, no nothing, just a blank screen.
what do i do?

If there is nothing showing on the iPad's screen, then assuming that its battery isn't empty then have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear and it will boot up - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My iPad just went blank! There's a message about it needs to be restored - what does that mean?

I went to sync my iPad 2 with iTunes today. It asked me to update the most recent version but then it went blank! It won't turn on at all - help!

If iTunes told you that the iPad needs to be restored, the message seems pretty clear to me. The iPad needs to be restored within iTunes.

My ipad just went blank and wont come back on, any help??

My IPad went blank and will not come back on. Is there a reset button or procedure??

Try resetting your iPad by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

My iPad just went black and the black travels up and down or side to side and I can't force it to close I don't get the red bar what's going on

My IPad just went blank/black/gray sometimes lines cannot force close as the red bar does not come up
The blank screen color travels up and down or side to side
What is causing this
Either way when plug in or not the battery level is at 70%

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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Maybe you have multiple accounts that's why your purchase history is empty. You can try checking for possible Apple IDs that's existing for you or you can ask for assistance from support.

Are you using the same apple ID and password?
it seems all is in order, but perhaps the password isn't valid.
if the reset didn't work, try signing out of iTunes and App Store, then back in.
have you tried going to App Store - purchased and tapping on the cloud icon for the apps you want? You will still be asked for your password.

It was never free for the 3GS.
It is if the initial sign-up is done on an iPhone 4, iPad or iPod touch 4th gen.
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4436:
After I sign up for Find My iPhone for free, can I use it on other iOS devices?
Yes, if your devices are running iOS 4.2. For example, you can sign up for Find My iPhone for free on your iPad and use the same account information to sign in to MobileMe on your iPhone 3GS and turn on Find My iPhone.

I was charging my iPad2 and when reaching 90% it just went black and can't be started again. Anyone that have had this problem and know what to do?

I have had this problem several times. The iPad comes off charging with a black screen and only a hard reset works to get it back. Then you have to go to settings to be sure nothing changed there.
I have had serveral hard resets and three restore operations and the problem recurs. I am not sure if it is the iPad2 or an app that is causing the problem. So far I can live with it as is.

This is all just a partial answer since details will depend upon how you want to do it.

Commercial software utility for transferring songs from i-device to Mac - http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/

You'll need to get it all onto one iTunes collection on your Mac Pro, then sync the devices to that. iTunes only lets you transfer purchases from a device, otherwise you have to use third party software.
I guess you could also look into getting iTunes Match.
