My iPad Mini turned off randomly and wont turn back on.

I was using my iPad for games during school and it just flashed a blue screen and turned off. I turned it back on and it worked for a couple minutes then the screen started doing weird things and popping up with random thin black lines. It has turnbed back on a couple times after that and it just does the same thing. I have tried resetting it by holding the home and lock button, and I would try and reset it through iTunes but it also won't connect to my computer. There is no physical damage on the device. I have only had it for a couple weeks. It has never been dropped or missused.

  • My iPhone 4 shut off randomly and wont turn back on.

    Well I was texting on my iPhone 4 and then when I went to look and see if the person had replied my phone was off! I tried holding the on/off button and nothing happened. Why is it doing this?? I have had it for about a month and idk if the color makes a difference but its white and yes I do have a heavy duty case on it. It has not been dropped in forever too. Thanks

    I got it to turn on looking at some other posts.. Press the home and wake button at the same time while plugged in the computer for 10 seconds works

  • My airport on my mbp just started turning off randomly and wont turn back on unless i reboot - help

    this just started happening the last 2 days.... it works fine and has without issue.... i think if i pull the power cord out it starts messing up here and there.
    i use a base w a fan under.... but it does get hot as **** if not.
    but again, it works fine, no issues just this weird airport shuts off and when you click to turn back on, nothing happens... when i restart, it works fine.
    i've read all the threads for this type of issue.... tried all the suggested things.... no luck yet... did the airport update yesterday that was specifically made for this issue but its happened again.
    i REALLY don't wanna buy a new mpb.... not cuz of the money, its not the issue... i hate the new mbp's keyboard... and LOVE the 2008 ones w/ the silver keyboard.... just type faster and it feels better than the black keyboard. (strange, i know)
    any ideas on how to fix this or what to do?

    Have a repair shop take a look at the MBP to make sure that the internal wireless card is functioning properly.
    I have a 2008 MBP as well and the wireless card needed to be replaced a few months ago when intermittent issues began.
    I had the shop add some extra memory as well at the same time. Really helped.

  • If I buy an iPad Mini 4G in USA and take it back to Spain, can I use it here normally? Is a data plan needed in US? Thanks!

    I'm travelling to NY in 10 days and my intention is to buy and iPad mini 4G to use it in Spain as I live here. Any problem when purchasing? Do I need to sign a data plan in US for Verizon, AT&T or Sprint?
    Thanks for replying.

  • Iphone 4 turns off randomly and won't turn back on unless it's plugged in

    Iphone 4 turns off randomly and won't turn back on unless it's plugged in.
    Has anyone had this problem?
    If I leave the phone (thus not doing anything to it) for an extended period of time say 2 hrs. It will have turned off and you can't turn it back on unless you plug it in, but it's got heaps of "Battery" left.
    Ever so often it will turn off randomly as well, and can't turn it on again.

    If your iPhone is powering off, this is not normal.
    Try restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup. If no change after doing so, your iPhone has a hardware problem. The iPhone includes a one year warranty.

  • 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on

    My iPhone 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on. I tried to turn it back on and it didn't work, so then, I went to plug it into the charger. It didn't start up or show the apple logo, it just vibrated every five seconds. So after awhile I went on to iTunes and tried to see if I could reset the factory settings, after it attempted to download it said that I needed to type in my password on my phone, but how was I suppose to do that if I can't turn my phone on in the first place??? (By the way, I accidentally dropped it, about five inches off of the ground, about an hour prior to this happening. so I don't know if dropping it had anything to do with it, because it seemed fine after I picked it up.) Help. Really, really, REALLY need it. thanks.

    If a SMC reset does not help, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.

  • My ipod has just turned off and wont come back on

    my ipod has just turned off and wont come back on but i know it had a good amount of battery left and if i plug it into my computer or docking station nothing happens please help...

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Iphone 4 turns off randomly and unable to turn it on without charger

    iphone 4 turns off randomly and unable to turn it on without connecting to charger or PC

    Hey Tiffy6996!
    I have an article here for you that describes this issue and can help you troubleshoot the issue a little further:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • Ipad mini is still hot and won't open. It's been 7 hours already help me :(

    My ipad mini won't open. While I was charging, my ipad mini turned off and became very hot. It's been 7 hours already and it's still hot. What should I do? I'm very worried please help.:( I already tried holding the home button then turning it on but still nothing happens.

    I would unplug it, perhaps try another charger if you can borrow one and see if that causes the heating.  And take the Mini and charger to an Apple store genius bar tomorrow and have the techs test the system.
    The unit should not be hot, they do get warm and the charger gets warm, during charging.   The question is what do you mean by hot?  Too hot to handle, or uncomfortably warm?

  • My iPad mini keeps restarting randomly all the time

    My iPad mini keeps restarting randomly all the time, I already restored it to manufacturer settings, help! This started about a week ago, and I can't take it to Apple because I got this Christmas 2012. I already reset it all, and it still keeps restarting.

    I had the same problem.  I ended up restoring to the factory settings using the method:
    1. connect usb to computer
    2. hold down home button and connect cord to ipad...continue holding down home key until connect to itunes appears on screen, then release
    3. restore to factory settings
    I lost all my pictures and data, but the ipad works again. Such a pain! Not happy about this at all!

  • My ipad mini keeps rebooting over and over again, even after a total reset. what to do?

    Hello people,
    I have my ipad mini since christmas 2012 and it was working like a charm.
    But a few weeks ago it rebooted out of nowhere, and now it reboots like every 5 minutes average.
    Sometimes it wont boot up properly and boot 3 times in a row, i sometimes even have to force it to reboot by holding the home+lock button.
    I reset my ipad and then restored from a back up but it didn't stop.
    Today I reset mty ipad again without restoring from anything, just blanc, like out of the box, installed facebook and youtube app  and a few minutes later it rebooted again.
    I think i've tried anything but maybe you can help me.
    Bye from Holland
