Why does my Ipad continue to turn off and on by itself

I have an IPAD 2 and through out the day it continues to turn off and on by itself.   Can anyone help with this or give me suggestions on what to do.
I have already updated it to the latest software. 

(A) 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: Data will not be affected.
(B) Reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

  • Why does my iPad mini keep shutting off every two seconds?

    Why does my iPad mini keep shutting off every two seconds?

    I doubt that anyone here can answer that question with any validity...
    That being said, try to reset the device:
    *Device reset*
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

    Why does my iPad continuously close from where I'm working and takes me to home screen?

    It might be out of memory. Close all apps you're not using using the toolbar that comes up when you double click on the home button. Press and hold any icon and then tap on the red minus (-) symbol of the apps you're not using.

  • Why cant i restore my iphone and why does it keep turning off and on by itself

    hello all
    i just would like to know why my phone keeps turning off and on by itself
    and why i cant i restore it on itunes
    many thanks
    al

    What worked for me, is going to the camera app, switch to video, turn on flash, and record.  Let the phone record for about 10 minutes.  (your phone will probably keep reseting itself) but that is okay, let it reset, and go back the the camera app and repeat.  what you are supposed to do is let the phone sit there and wait for the back to feel sort of hot. stop recording at about 8 minutes and plug your phone into itunes, it should be charging, and once you do so you can then set your phone into DFU mode.  This might not help you, or it will.  I just fixed my iphone today, that had the same problem as you.  so keep trying and it will come back to normal again!  Cheers!

  • Grandkids set up ipad2 for grandma. Passcode forgotten and never used again.  The ipad was never turned off, and was never synced or connected to main PC.  No iTunes installed on PC.  Yesterday while visiting with owner, I downloaded an app for her.

    Grandkids set up ipad2 for grandma. Passcode forgotten and never used again.  The ipad was never turned off, and was never synced or connected to main PC.  No iTunes installed on PC.  Yesterday while visiting with owner, I downloaded an app for her.  It installed and restarted the ipad. Passcode is now needed. What to do?

    If Find my iPad was never set up then scroll down & follow the directions under Recovery Mode:
    Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
    If it was and the activation lock is triggered, then you will need to know the original Apple ID & password that her grandkids used to set it up or have them sign into iCloud & remove the device from Find My iPad before you can Restore it.

  • HT1430 When charging my Ipad mini, it turned off and its still not working, what do i do pls??

    When charging my Ipad mini, it turned off and its still not working, what do i do pls??

    First, 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.

    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then restore via iTunes:

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • IPod nano 3rd gen turnes off and on by itself

    I have a problem: my iPod nano 3rd generation turns off and on by itself every 5-7 seconds.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Is there a case around this iPod? It might be pushing on the touch wheel. Does it happen when you flick the lock switch? If so it seems like a restore is in order
