New iPad purchased yesterday will not turn off

Hi there, got this new iPad yesterday. Have read all the info on how to turn off the iPad, but as long as I hold the home button down for I get no slide bar or option to turn off, this is most annoying. What can I do to resolve this issue. Help. Thanks charlotte

You need to press and hold the on/off (sometimes called sleep/wake) button on the top edge of the iPad, not the home button on the front of the iPad.

My iphone will not turn off

I push the button on my new iPhone but it will not turn off. Any suggestions?

It might be a technical fault and I'd reccomend to visit Genius bar or find a repair shop.
Meanwhile, if you still want to turn off/on your screen as a temporary solution:
1. Go to settings
2. General
3. Accessibility
4. AssistiveTouch and turn it on (you should find a small square with a circle inside on your screen now)
5. Tap this small square to open AssistiveTouch menu
6. Tap Device and then Lock Screen
You should be able to turn off the screen now.

LED light will not turn off

All of a sudden my red LED light is not turning off now. I have no new messages and it will not turn off. I shut my BB off and then it goes away, but comes back and stays on once I have a message. Anything I can do?

Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Restoring your Apple TV - Apple Support

My 1st generation iPad will not turn off and I have performed the suggested fix. What's next?

My iPad will not turn off. I have done the off/sleep key home button procedure.

Just to be perfectly clear, when you reset the iPad by hod,ing down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen, that is a way of resetting the system and restrating the device. If you want to shut down, you still have to hold down on the power button until the slider appears and then slide to the right to shut the iPad off.
IS this what you are doing and if so what happens when you try to shut down? Describe what happens in detail.

My Ipad will not turn off what can I do ?

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.
Let it start up completely and then you can shut down if you want to do so.

My iPad does not restart, I have kept the button for more than 10 seconds and will not turn off. Please if anyone has any idea that I do, let me know. thanks

Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: You have to hold 2 buttons down together.

Light will not turn off after installing new cyano cartridge

Light will not turn off after new cyano cartridge installed

I suspect that the ones that say they will work with Windows 8 on the box. If it does not say that, check the maunfacturer's website. They eventually will have to give Windows 8 support for the new cards or loose out to the competitors cards.

My ipad has sort of frozen but will not turn off by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button

my daughters i pad has sort of frozen. She can lock it and unlock it. All it is showing is her wallpaper. All her apps have disappeared.
We cannot restart it as per the apple support troubleshooting assistant as it will not turn off. Help

Have you tried to hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds or so, until you see a silver apple. See if you can get it to reboot.

HT201257 Fan on my MacBook Pro came on and will not turn off, what could be wrong or how do I fix?

The fan on my MacBook Pro came on out of no where and will not turn off. The computer is not heated nor are any applications running in the background. The seems to be going on full blast. Before now it worked fine. Would turn on or off when need. Please advice what could be wrong or if ther is anything I can do to fix or troubleshoot. Computer is not even a year old.

LexSchellings: Now I know why you wished me luck and hoped everything would clear up asap hehe. I've been doing some reading and it is quite possible that my MBP late 2011 is sadly part of the probably million of MBP's out there with logic board issues. I am glad I am under warranty (still have to wait and see what apple techs decide on my comp) and sad that my comp will probably be done with in a few years. Not even 4 as it turns out. I can honestly say my old iBook G4 was amazing gave me 8 great years. Never had an issue with it.
Something funny is that about 10 to 15 mins ago the fan on my comp (the only indicator I got of any issue going on) quite down and the comp was working perfect. It has been running really slow since I noticed the fan being over worked even if nothing is running. Then it started up again and once again quite down, functioned well for like 10 seconds and started being noisy and slow again.
However there is an issue that bugs me, if according to my AHT results it is a faulty logic board how come my comp is still functioning? Of course being slow and noisy. I've read on some sad stories on here
Wish me more luck and send me lots of good vives. Going to need them. Especially if I end up not being able to fix the comp.
Apple is letting me down and to think I just purchased an iPad mini for xmas :/

Installed ios 6 on new iPad and siri will not work.

Good morning, I installed ios6 on the new iPad and siri will not work. Each time I try to use siri she says "uh oh, I'm having a problem. Please try again. I have tried turning siri off and back on again. Resetting the iPad, resetting the network, turning Airplane Mode off and on again. All to know avail. My iphone 5 works great and so does my wife's iphone 4s with ios6. I have called Apple support but there only suggestion was that the servers were busy. If that was the case my other devices would not work either. Plus the servers wouldn't be busy for four days. Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. I was looking forward to using siri on the new iPad and other folks don't seem to be having a problem.
Thanks, and have a great day.

Then you need to change your device details as this still says iPad2.
It's very possible Apple's servers have been busy for 4 days as not everyone downloaded iOS 6 on the day it was announced. I downloaded it last Friday, myself, as an example.
There are a millions and millions of people using Apple iDevices.
Just because everything went fine with the iOS 6 updates of your iPhone 4 and 5 doesn't mean something couldn't have gone wrong with an update to your iPad3
If the iOS update missed something during the download, I am not sure how to go about re-downloading iOS 6 to fix the issue you are having.

Web sharing starts but will not turn off

I have enabled web sharing and been running successfully for a long time, recently upgraded to Lion.
The problem I have now is that I can turn Apache on through the Web Sharing prefs but it will not turn off, technically that not true as the instance is killed off but something is restarting the httpd processes (new pid's). As far as the Pref pane is concerned Apache is off (un checked box), though in reality, a new instance is running.
The only way to turn it off is by su apachectl stop.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Adam.
