i got an ipad mini for christmas, charged fully. was using it..and it was fine.. went to turn it back on to use again and it's a blank screen. went to plug in and nothing seems to show it's charging or anything. why can this happen??

Try resetting it. Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds. Hopefully you will see the Apple logo.
If it's a brand new iPad Mini (with retina display), it is under warranty. You can always take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Center for service.

HT1414 I just got an iPad mini for Christmas; when I try to sync it with iTunes, it tells me I have to restore it first; when I tried to restore it, it said it could not restore as the defive was not found. How do I sync this with iTunes for the first ti

I don't know much about electronics either and I do not know what my operating system is, but it is iPad mini 32gb.

It really doesn't matter what operating system you are using right now, but when you connected the iPad to your computer, did iTunes start up on its own and then give you this message?
Start with this. Quit iTunes on your computer, and then estart your computer. Restart the iPad as well. After the computer and the iPad start up again, connect the iPad to your computer again and see what happens. Post back after you do that.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

I recently got an IPad Mini for my birthday, so I was charging it up today in my room and my chargers not worked since, I tried it in my dads IPhone 5 and still won't work. We tried it in various plug sockets but still won't work. It's a good IPad though?

How do I get my IPad charger to work or shall I get a new charger? It's brand new so I don't see why it's not working??

Get a new charger. You could've bent it when you were charging your ipad so it doesn't work, or maybe apple just gave you a bad one . Just use your dad's charger for now.

My mom got the iPad mini for Christmas and she gave me her old iPad but she is still receiving all my messages on her mini. Is there a way to stop her from getting them?

If she is receiving your messages - then you must have somehow setup the iPad to use your iPhone number or your email address on her new iPad. How you did that is beyond me unless you set up her new Mini for her and used your Apple ID on it.
On her iPad got to - Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>uncheck your phone number or email address of that is what is being used for the contact number.

Hi, I have got three ipad minis which I would like to use in a business environment whereby the users can see and update a single calender. Is this possible? Would they have to be run form one account?

Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from her old compouter to /Music/ in her account on this new computer.

My wife received a new iPad Mini for Christmas-- when connected to iMac, icon appears in iPhoto sidebar; however, there appears to be no option to "unmount." Also, unlike my iPhone 4S whose icon appears in iTunes sidebar, the Mini does not. Any insights?

First open iTunes (version 11). Then connect the iPad. Now is it recognized?
If not .............

HT204053 We bought our daughter a iPad mini for christmas. Should we set her up her own apple ID or use the one we have. What is the best way for her for school?

We bought our daughter an iPad Mini for Christmas. Should we create her own apple ID or use the one we currently have for her device as well? What is the best way for her school work?

Her own ID. You cannot transfer purchases between IDs so anything bought on your account will require your authorization should she need to download in the future.

I got an ipod 5 for christmas but i want a new color is it possible to exchange and will i need a receipt

so I got an ipod 5 for Christmas but my dad said they had no blue so I wanted to exchange it to a blue one is it possible and will I need a receipt and if I have to pay extra I will. by the way my ipod has a black screen silver back and no back camera

Since you have the iPod touch 5th Generation 16GB 2013 Model, you cannot exchange it. Last week, they discontinued the iPod touch 5G 16GB (2013 Model) and now they have a back camera and colors. You cannot trade now unless you purchased it under 2 weeks ago and like lllaass said, you can get 10% off a new iPod touch 5G 16GB which would be $20 off and it would cost $179 with tax. Hope it helps!

My ipad is disabled and says connect to itunes. I dont know the passcode and I dont have access to a computer , can I restore it without connecting to itunes

My ipad is disabled, I dont know the passcode and I dont have a computer to connect to itunes... is there anyway of reactivating ipad without connecting to itunes?

Sorry but no. You will need to get access to a computer with iTunes somewhere to restore the iPad. You can get help with this at an Apple Store if you have them in your area. Note that if you haven't backed up your iPad to iCloud, you'll lose all your data. Apps and other purchases from the iTunes Store can probably be re-downloaded.
Regards.

After downloading ios 7.2 my iPad mini seems to have a mind of its own. I'm not sure what to do to fix this problem. Can someone please help me.

I updated my iPad mini to ios 7.0.2 couple days ago. Everything was fine until yesterday. I noticed that it seemed to have a mind of its own. It kept opening and closing app. I'm not sure what to don to fix this problem. I've tried restoring my iPad mini but that didn't help. Can someone please help me?

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
If no joy...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
If the issue persists...
Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore

Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
