Why won't my iPad mini boot up?
Hi--
Bought my iPad mini last summer and it has worked fine.
But now it won't boot up. It just shows a white screen with the black apple logo. Every other couple of minutes, a sort of blue screen will go over the white screen like a blanket, and then it returns to the white screen.
Pushing buttons and swiping the screen produce nothing.
Thought I would try restoring it, but when I plug it into iTunes on my computer, iTunes won't show the device icon.
Don't know what operating system it has . . . . I can't "get" into it, and the box that it came in, with the tiny pamphlet, don't say!
It is 16G, I do know that . . . .
Help ??
Unable to Update or Restore

Why won't my iPad mini allow my gopro 32gb SD card to transfer video using the lightening to SD card camera reader?
The gopro transfer worked with my original iPad. Is it the lightening technology?If you've gone through all that and it's the right kind of SD card, right naming convention etc. try giving your iPad a reset. Sometimes that port gets turned off (for lack of a better term) and a reset turns it back on. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
If it still doesn't work, if you have access to another iPad try the reader on that. THere are some defective ones out there. If it works on another iPad then there's something going on with yours. If it doesn't work on another iPad then you may want to take that reader back and exchange it because it may be bad. -
Why won't my iPad mini download music or video's? I click the download button and it will say its downloading. Then once finished it will just disappear? How can I fix this problem?!?!
Are you using the same apple ID and password?
it seems all is in order, but perhaps the password isn't valid.
if the reset didn't work, try signing out of iTunes and App Store, then back in.
have you tried going to App Store - purchased and tapping on the cloud icon for the apps you want? You will still be asked for your password. -

Why won't my iPad air charge anymore? I bought a new cable but it still doesn't charge, it is only 3 months old.
If you are still having problems with your iPad, it is still under AppleCare.
Bring it into an Apple Store to have it diagnosed and repaired under warranty. -
Why won't my ipad charge from my computer when my iphone does? also where have my facetime and contacts icons gone?
A computer USB port does not provide enough power to charge and run the iPad at the same time but it will charge it if the iPad is turned off. It will take about four times as long to charge than with the iPad charger.
The Contacts icon may be inside a folder, such as Utilities.
There is no Facetime icon. Start a Facetime link from a contact. -
HT1689 why won't my ipad 1 download entire purchased tv episodes
Why won't my ipad 1 download an entire purchased tv episode?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer. -

Why won't my Intel iMac boot up, either from the internal hard drive or the DVD drive? It just displays a light grey screen, without any other icons, etc. The fact that it won't boot from the original system DVD is what baffles me the most. Any ideas? It uses the latest version of Mavericks. Thanks!
If the C key for Install Disc or R Command for OS X Recovery startup commands are not working, try holding the Option key for the Startup Manager.
see > Startup Manager: How to select a startup volume
If that does not work and you using a wireless keyboard, it may have become unpaired and you need to dig up a USB keyboard to invoke the startup commands.
For more on gray screen, see > Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup -

Probably because your email provider is filtering it. The built-in Mail app has no mail filtering capabilities.
