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...

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

    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

    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.

  • Iphone 4s is frozen and won't turn off.  How do I turn it off if the button at the top doesn't work?

    My iphone 4S is frozen and won't turn off.  Is there another way to reboot or turn off the phone besides the button at the top?

    Try to Reset your device. 
    Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button (I know you think it's broken, but try) and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off that shows up first).

  • My daughters ipad mini is frozen and will not swipe.  I have reset and the restored to factory settings

    my daughter ipad mini is frozen.  it will not let me swipe.  I have rebooted and then restored to factory settings but I am still unable to swipe.
    She has had problems with this ipad in the past and told at the reading store, by a pretty rude guy that we needed to buy a new one as it kept switching off.  it is only 14 months old and I do not ant to buy a new one if it will only last for this short time.   it has been working pretty much ok for the last month since our trip to the store but now it has totally frozen
    please can someone help me as I can not afford to buy another

    If you have restored the device as new, not from a backup and it is still malfunctioning, then you have a hardware problem. The warranty on the device is one year, but if you take it to the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service provider and it is determined there is a hardware fault, then you may qualify for an out of warranty replacement, which is at a reduced price, depending on your location. http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/repair/other/

  • HT1212 ipad mini is frozen and home button not working

    my ipad mini home button is frozen and will not turn off.  I have tried holding the home button and of/off button for more than a minute and will not respond or shutdown.

    If the home button is not working, then the best option is a visit to an Apple store genius bar to have the techs check it out.

  • My iPad mini is dead and won't charge!!!!

    My iPad mini was nearly dead, so I plugged it in. However, it didn't say it was charging. And now it's completely dead. I've tried using a different charger and switching wall sockets, but nothing will work. It won't turn on it just has the symbol telling me I need to plug  it in. I've had this iPad mini for over two years and I've never had a problem like this before!! PLEASE HELP!!!!

    1. Reset iPad
    2. Try another wall socket
    3. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)

  • Ipad screen has frozen and won't switch off

    My ipad has frozen on me in the middle of watching bbc iplayer and won't switch off either.  Any suggestions.

    It does not specifically address this particular issue per se. Rebooting/resetting the iPad is a basic troubleshooting tip that covers a whole multitudes of little issues in iOS devices.
    This is a screenshot of page 127 of the iOS 6 support pdf manual for the iPad.

  • HT201412 sleep button does not work and iphone 4 is frozen and won't turn on

    sleep button broke a while ago and now my iphone 4 is frozen and i can't get it to reset also it doesn't sink up with the computer
    please help i miss my phone

    There's no software fix for a hardware issue. Either replace your phone...Apple has an out of warranty replacement program, cost is US $149 for an iPhone 4...or go to a third-party repair shop & get your phone fixed.

  • My ipad mini went blank and will not turn on because the button is jammed

    My daughters ipad went blank shortly after updating the new IOS software. The top right button has been inoperable for about six months. It hasn't been a problem until now. Apple store says there is nothing they can do since the button doesn't work. Is there a way to get it fixed or at the very least get the photos off of it.

    Have you tried resetting your iPad?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • 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.

  • HELP!!! iPod is frozen and won't turn on

    My iPod Nano will not turn on. I last used it today it was half charged, so I know the battery is not dead... I have tried the 5 R's, plugged it into a wall outlet and still not working. When I connect it to my PC, I get nothing. My iTunes program does not display and iPod will not charge. Not sure what else I can do.. Is it broken? Any suggestions would be great!!

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try again
    - If still not successful, time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
