My ipad will not respond, and when i try to shut it down it won't what can I do?

All of a suuden my ipad would not respond to taps, or any manipulation. When I tried to shut it down, the swipe for shut down would not respond. any ideas? what might be problem ? and what can/should I do? Thanks

First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
You won't have to swipe anything on the screen to reboot the iPad. Hopefully this will correct the error.

  • Downloaded and installed yosemite. Now iPhoto will not open and when i try to update it it says not available for my apple id. Help

    Downloaded yosemite OSX 10.10 and now iPhoto will not open. When I try to update to iPhoto 9.6, it tells me it can not be be downloaded with "this Apple ID. It is the only Apple ID I have ever had. Please help

    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • IPad will not play movies when I try to restart them.

    I rented a couple movies prior to a buisness trip.  When I was sitting at the airport, I started one of the movies and watched while I was waiting on my plane. They called my plane so I turned on airplane mode, shut down my I pad, and got on the plane.  When I restarted my IPad on the plane,  it would not play the movie.   I could see the chapters, I could see the other movies I had rented and downloaded, but none of them would play.   I even tried to play one of my other downloads and it did not work. Is this because I was in Airplane mode?  I could play one of the movies I own that is on the IPad, just not the rentals.  Once I was home,  my IPad hooked back up to my wireless, and worked fine and I watched the rest of the movie.  Is there some issue why this is not working?  If I can't rent movies to watch on an airplane, I am going to be pretty bitter.
    Thanks in advance.

  • After downloading I was entering my password for iCloud and clicked on forgot....now it's stuck and will not shutdown. When I try to shut down it says Set up Assistant cancelled shutdown. This has been going on for 5 hrs plus...any ideas?

    MAcbook is stuck and will not shutdown following download of X Mavericks software. Setup assistant is stuck and will not allow the MacBook Air to shutdown. It's been doing this for over 5 hours......any ideas?

    Hi there—
    This reply doesn't seem to take into account the query.
    Please help?
    The computer is completely unresponsive and won't shut down or turn off. It is stuck in Set Up Assistant after trying to sign in to AppleID.
    Attempting to shut down or restart produces the following dialogue:
    "The application Set Up Assistant has cancelled shut down.
    To try shutting down again, quit Setup Assistant and click Try Again."
    HOWEVER it is impossible to quick Set Up Assistant— the icon is completely unresponsive even to force quit, right click or anything.
    I've managed to get into being able to see Dashboard and at the top Desktop and the dock below. But I can't click on anything from there. So it seems it is not the whole computer. Just set-up assistant.
    Please help??
    Thank you

  • TS4036 my ipad will not respond and can't be backed up at this time. help!!

    My iPad is stuck on a screen telling me that I haven't backed up in 2 weeks. I can not get my iPad to respond in any way. I can't get it to shut down or move beyond this screen. Please help.

    Perform a reset: Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. Release both buttons and await restart.

  • My MacBook pro is less then a year old and when I try to shut it down it gives me the blue screen and the loading spinner but the doesn't do anything or shut down. I've already tried to reinstall Mac os x but that didn't work any ideas?

    It stays on the blue screen forever until I manually shut it down

    Cooper, please start a new thread.  You'll get a wider audience and won't confuse Quintonaturner  with issues that don't pertain to them.  You don't know they have Office.  Many Mac users don't.  http://www.neooffice.org is a nice alternative, and so is http://docs.google.com/ as long as you don't have Exchange servers that aren't Mac OS X Mail compatible.

  • HT1414 My mini iPad will not respond.  It started giving me problems when I signed up with Sprint.  I'd like to cancel sprint.  They're no good.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't help Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • My ipad will not turn on when I plug it up, the screen light will occasionally blink

    my ipad will not turn on when I plug it up, the screen light will occasionally blink, thank you

    First, make sure that it's fully charged.
    Then, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.
