Why does my ipad 2 keep turning on and off?

Why does my ipad 2 keep shutting off only to restart and repeat?

It basically works as if nothings wrong, until about a minute into using it it turns off then retarts and repeat....

  • HT201210 why does my phone keeps turning on and off by itself ?

    Hi, my phone is been acting weird. My phone keeps turning on and off by itself and it frezzes. What should i do ?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why does my phone keep turning on and off repeatedly?

    My phone was acting up so I turned it off and when I turned it back on it seemed to start normally but then it started the spinning screen for about 3 minutes, then a second of blue screen and started back up and just keeps doing that.  It never properly turns on.  I had to hold the home button and power button until it stopped.  I did try to do a hard reset but that didn't work either.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Why does my ipad keep losing connection and kicking me out of apps?

    Why does my ipad keep dropping apps while I am using them like facebook and facetime. It just disconnects and goes to the home screen. Very frustrating!

    I have a MacBookPro...my wife has iPad2...and I do nothing with her iPad...
    let me ask a dumb question reading here.  She plays a lot of Scrabble or word games...goes on Facebook, and has been complaining to me about the games crashing, bringing her sometimes back to the home page. 
    We followed one piece of advice given here...to hold the start and home buttons simultaneously and reboot.  This may work...we'll see.
    But...on the advice concerning the apps.  When she holds down an App...they vibrate or shake, which I guess is a way to move an app about...drag it.  Saw no minus sign.  I guess we assumed the app was "closed" sitting dormant on the home screen...and so I know or understand (she not so computer literate), an app sitting on the homescreen is not necessarily closed?  Hitting home and bringing the desktop back up, is not necessarily closing out of the app?
    thanks...

  • My iPad keeps turning on and off by itself

    Hi! My iPad just keeps turning on and off by itself. I tried turning it off "ON MY OWN" and turning it back on but it keeps returning to the issue. Is there anyone that can help with my issue? I have the "iPad Mini" . There are some times where it will just stop and next thing you know, I go to a app and it returns to the issue :( . ( BY THE WAY, I did update the iPad to the  final  update , but it still continues to turn on and off by itself WITHOUT me even touching it. What should I do????

    Restore the iPad completely (this is a fresh install of the iOS not just an update).
    1) Backup your iPad. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    2) Restore the iOS via iTunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    3) Restore from your Backup created in step 1. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766

  • Why does my Ipad keep going black and then back to the apple logo.  It eventually goes to the start page but then blacks out again.  I have already rebooted several times with no luck!!

    Why does my Ipad 2 keep going black ahd back to the apple logo.  It eventually goes to the home screen and allows me to try something else but after about 30 seconds it happens again.  I have already rebooted several times? 

    Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
    Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

  • Why does my ipad keep turning off mirroring

    When I try to turn on mirroring of my iPhone 4 or iPad2 it just turns off within seconds. Why?

    Tony, try shutting down completely anything else you are doing. ( double tap the home key etc). Mirroring is a real load on both the processor as well as the wifi.  Trying to mirror and fast game, for instance, will push the padmto the limit.  And whn it crosses over the limit, it just shuts down.  If you are trying to mirror a game, amke sure all the safari uses are shut off.  If you are trying to mirror a web page, make sure the games are closed off.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Why does my iPad keep moving between screens and shaking?

    Why does my iPad keep shaking and/ or move between apps?

    No idea why it is doing that, but try rebooting the iPad.
    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.
