My ipad mini won't turn on - what can I do?

Charged my ipad mini overnight and it wont turn on now.  What can I do?

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.

  • IPad mini won't turn on

    I have an iPad mini that was working yesterday, but when I tried to use it this morning, nothing happens. It was plugged in to charge last and this morning, it won't turn on. I tried plugging it in to a power source, a Mac mini, and a Win7 laptop and nothing comes it, it won't mount in iTunes at all. I tried allthe cables with my iPad(4th gen), and the cables work fine. I tried a reset by holding down the home and power buttons for 10 seconds and nothing. I can't tell if the battery is completely dead or maybe the backscreen doesn't work anymore. I don't know what else to try, or else I'll take it to the local authorized apple specialist since its still under warranty.

    This in Apple's kb article that describes the steps to take if your iDevice does not respond or will not turn on.
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Support - Apple
    The very last part of the article will be what applies in your situation - the part that talks about restoring the iOS software. Have a look and then give that a try. If that fails, head off to your Apple Specialist and ask them to take a look.

    Please help

    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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • Brand new iPad mini won't turn on

    I just got a brand new iPad mini not even 24 hours ago. I've taken absolute perfect care of it and its been working fine, but I was just listening to music on it with the charger plugged in, and all of a sudden it just blacks out. I've tried everything including pressing the on/off and home buttons at the same time but nothing works. Please help!!!!!!!!

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

  • My HP Pavillion won't turn on, what can I do??

    Does it do anything when you hit the power button? noise, fan turn on,  any lights if not maybe a power supply.

  • TS1398 My wifi won't turn on what can I do?

    Can anybody help me

    Hey Birdie1001,
    I see that you came from the following link;
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    If you haven't already, I would troubleshoot the issue following the steps within that article.
    If that doesn't apply, and when you say it won't turn on you are seeing that the button itself appears grayed out or dim, try the steps in here:

  • 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.

  • My laptop won't turn off - what can I do?

  • HT1766 my iphone just went black and won't turn on what can I do?

    Help! My iphone 3gs was working just fine. My granddaughter picked it up and jerked it out of the charger and it went black. I have tried pushing the home & power button together, going to itunes to restore and nothing helps. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks Terri

    Did you try any of the reset steps, etc. outlined in some of these forums or pretty much do nothing until it started working again? Also, do you have an iPhone 4 as Sam The AMAZING does?
    (I'm desperately grasping straws to figure out whether or not I've exasperated all options and my iPhone is lost forever...)
    Thanks, L

  • My Ipad mini is not turning off with the botton neither with the cover. It is not also turning on when  I open the cover. Please, what I have to do.

    My Ipad mini is not turning off with the botton neither with the cover. It is not also turning on when  I open the cover. Please, what I have to do?

    If the cover you bought is not a legitimate apple cover than you may be having the same issue I had.
    The one I purchased has a top cover swivel, if you spin it around( meaning the top case cover)
    The magnet will return to the correct spot and it will work again. It is only located at one end of the case.
    Hope this might help:)

  • My iPad mini won't charge at all. I got it for Chrisrmas and it is still in brand new condition and it was fine but now it won't charge at all! It used to charge in an exact position but now it has stopped altogether...Help!!

    My iPad mini won't charge at all. I got it for Christmas off my dad and it is still in brand new condition. Until the other day it has been working fine but until yesterday or the day before my charger went all funny. In order to charge my iPad mini you had to put the charger in an exact place and if someone so much as touched it it would stop charging because it wasn't in its exact position. But today I tried to charge it again and I tried getting it in the same spot as yesterday but it is not working at all. I have only ever charged my iPad mini in the wall but I have seen posts about people charging it in the USB in an computer. So I thought I would also try that but that hasn't worked either and now my iPad mini won't charge in a plug or USB and I live really far away from an apple store and I can't get a new charger also because I live far away from the store. So what shall I do?

    When and where was the iPad/charger purchased? It's covered by a 1-year warranty.
    The problem may be the USB cable.

  • My home button stopped working and now iPad mini will not turn.

    My home button stopped working a few weeks ago, and now my iPad mini will not turn on. I can't restart the iPad, and it will not pop up in iTunes. What can I do?

    Make an appointment with the nearest apple store and they will be able to replace it or give you directions otherwise. Hope this helps
