New ipad will not start?
I just opened the box and charge the new ipad. it will not go to the home page. any suggestions?
If you're getting a screen of iTunes and a cable, then you need to activate it by connecting it to a computer that is running iTunes. Getting Started guide : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4053
The manual, which can be downloaded from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad , also has a chapter on Getting Started
If you are not getting anything on screen then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear (a reset won't remove content, not that you've got any content on it if it''s new, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot).

MY ipad will not start. I can only see an apple in the center.
Have you tried this?
Reboot 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. -

My ipad will not start.
I have to do a hard reboot inorder for it to turn off.
It just get the start white apple and then it restarts after a few minutes.
I also cannot access the ipad via itunes and therefore I cannot do a restore. I could access it before the problem happened.
This occured after I updated an app and did a reboot. The update never completed itself (Flipboard)
The itunes is the lastest version.Frozen or unresponsive iPad

My mini ipad will not start up at all just black screen
my ipad will not start up
Tap the word Genius Appointment in Kappy's answer, it's a link. Or you can call the nearest Apple Store.
Try a reset first. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. -
Help!!!!!! My wife's iPad will not start up. I updated two nights ago to the latest IOS and today it will not do anything. It is charged and I've tried to access it through itunes to no avail.
From your text, it's difficult to determine if the problem lies with the iPad or the cable.
If the iPad still works, but you're having a problem with the sync, you may want to check all the cables and connections. If the iPad doesn't work (frozen or unresponsive), post and we'll go through the checklist together. -
My ipad will not start up, it has the swirl in the center of the screen and has been there for 30hrs now, what can I do?
First thing to try is a reboot of your iPad. 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 iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

ipad will not start up, keeps shutting down and trying to restart, but never gets past the apple logo. The computer will not recognize it as a device that is connected to try and restore.

My new iPad will not sync with itunes. itunes is updated to latest version. Do I need to uninstall itunes and reinstall?
That could be a solution. Are you getting any error messages or error codes? Is the iPad recognized in iTunes? Does anything happen at all when you try to Sync? Can you provide more details?
You can try a very simple first step, quit iTunes, reboot your PC and restart the iPad. -
My new ipad will not sync with itunes. the device does not show up in itunes
my new ipad will not sync with itunes. the device does not show up in itunes. I am on a Windows system
Do you have the absolute latest version of iTunes downloaded? If your iTunes software has not been updated in some time, your iPad will not be recognized. With iTunes open, click on Store at the top. Check for available downloads and if there are any, download them. Once you've verified you have the latest software, connect your device again, and it should be recognized.

after copying photos ipad just cycles apple logo turns off & back to logo repeatedly. Have tried reset procedure still the same. Have tried to connect to itunes but because it will not start itunes does not recognise it. have tried a different laptop as well and different leeds..?? HELP i am going mad!!
Have you tried putting it into Recovery mode? See here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Not sure if success is dependant upon being recognised in iTunes!
Also, try this -
Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
Thirdly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs -

IPad will not start. Reset DOES NOT work. Connecting to iTunes DOES NOT work
My iPad went dead and sat for a few days before I plugged it in. Now it will not start. It has been plugged in for 2+ days now with OEM charger. The apple logo will show for a couple seconds and it turns off. Reset DOES NOT do anything. If I unplug it, nothing happens, no apple logo, no reset, nothing. Plugged into iTunes it will not do anything. The only time I get it to show activity is plugged into charger and like I said, as soon as the logo appears it shuts down and repeats this over and over until I unplug.
See if you can have any success with recovery mode.
