Try restarting your iPad. To do this, simply press and hold the Sleep/Wake button when the iPad freezes until a red slider appears on the screen. Slide the slider to trigger the shutdown process.
To turn back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. Then, enter your device’s passcode.
Are you using iOS 11+?
Most modern iPad users are probably using iPadOS 11+. You can use a different command to shut down your device if you have at least this software on your device:
Go to Settings > General.
Scroll all the way down and choose Shut Down.
Slide to power off your device.
Turn your iPad back on. Then, enter your passcode when trying to unlock your screen.
iPad Frozen Tip #2: Force Reset
If the first tip didn’t work, or if your iPad keeps freezing, try resetting your iPad–also called a Hard Restart or Force Restart.
To force restart your frozen iPad or iPhone device:
On an iPad with no Home Button: Press and quickly release the Volume Up button, then press and release volume down. Next, hold the power button on the side or top of the device until the Apple logo appears
On most iPads with a Home button: Tap the volume up and down button. Then, hold the standby button until the Apple logo appears.
On an iPhone 6s and earlier, older iPad with Home Button, or iPod Touch: Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 20 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Some of our readers mentioned that performing tip#2 on older iPhone or iPad models required them to hold the two buttons down for about 30 seconds. So if the first time fails and your iPad is still locked up, try it again with a 30 second hold.
If the above tips don’t work, the issue could be that the battery is fully depleted. Plug it into a wall outlet for a while and see if your battery holds a charge.
Please note that it can take up to 20 minutes of charging before the iPad starts up.
Ideally, plug in your device and let it charge for up at least one hour!
Don’t See The Charging Screen?
If, within an hour, you don’t see the charging icon on your screen or you see the connect to power screen, check the charging port on your iPad, USB cable, and power adapter.
Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged.
Try a different cable or power adapter. Alternatively, try plugging your device into a different plug socket.
iPad Frozen Tip #4: Close Apps (If Possible)
If you’re able to close all of your apps, doing this and restarting your iPad could help to stop intermittent freezing and similar issues.
To close apps on your iPad, double-tap the Home Button if your device is equipped with this. Otherwise, on newer iPads, Hold the bottom of your screen and swipe up.
Regardless of how you revealed your apps, swipe up to delete them all.
iPad Frozen Tip #5: Reset Settings (If Possible)
Sometimes a random setting is getting in the way, so let’s reset all those settings back to factory defaults. Note that you should not do this before trying the other steps, as you’ll need to customize your personalized settings again after doing so.
To reset all settings on an iPad:
Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPad.
Select Reset.
Click on Reset All Settings.
Resetting all settings also reverts all your personalized and customized features like wallpapers and accessibility settings back to factory defaults. Performing this action does not impact any of your personal device data, including photos, texts, documents, and other files.
Back Up Your iPad After Fixing the Problem to Avoid Future File Losses
Once you get your iPad back to working condition, it’s a good idea to backup. This will ensure that you don’t lose important photos, notes, and more if you need to reset your iPad in the future. You can back your iPad up to iCloud by following these steps:
Go to Settings > Apple ID profile.
Tap iCloud > iCloud Backup > Back Up Now. If the button is grayed out, you’re probably not connected to your Wi-Fi — so you should fix that issue before trying again.
Follow These Tips to Fix the iPad Frozen Issue
If your iPad is frozen, it can cause several issues and stop you from either enjoying yourself or doing your work. Thankfully, fixing the issue is possible in several ways. You can try simple options like turning your device off and on again, and it’s also a good idea to back up your device when you’ve fixed everything.
A frozen iPad is often due to glitches, and it shouldn’t be a long-term problem. Having read this guide, you’re now ready to get your tablet working as it should.

None of the suggestions are working for my frozen screen so how do you do things in settings and closing down apps when your screen is frozen?

hi, my brothers ipad air 2 is frozen and you can’t turn it off or do anything. I’ve restarted it and it didn’t work. I plugged it into the computer and connected it to iTunes. it reset everything and it turned on like a new ipad but it’s still frozen and wont do anything. so I’ve left it on charge but if you know a way to unfreeze it please let me know because my brother needs it for school. thank you 🙂
Have you done a forced restart? Press and hold the Home Button and the Power button together and keep holding them until you see the Apple Logo on the iPad’s screen, the release both buttons.
Nothing worked.its stuck in a game with an advertisement on top.i can see game playing in background. And, I can movement in advertisement but I can not get rid of ad or turn off iPad. I can get camera slide over the clock screen. I vmcan not get into any apps. I’m am so sad please helo
Can you open the app switcher? Try double pressing your home button so your apps appear as tiles on the screen. Tap the tile for the app that has that advertisement and swipe it up off the top of your screen–this forces it to close.
Once the app closes, power off your iPad, wait a minute or two, and power back on.
You may need to delete that game app and restore the purchase via the app store.
Close an app
1. On an iPhone or an iPad with no home button from the Home screen, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause slightly in the middle of the screen
2. On an iDevice with a home button, double-click the Home button and swipe right or left to find the app that you want to close
3. Swipe right or left to locate the app you want to close
4. Swipe up on the app’s preview to close it
5. Repeat for all apps until none remain on your home screen
6. Then restart
Please try a forced restart instead of a normal restart:
* On an iPad with no Home Button: Press and quickly release the Volume Up button. Press and quickly release the Volume Down button. Then press and hold the Side/Top/Power button until the device restarts.
* On an iPad with a Home Button: Press and hold both the Home and the Top (or Side) buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
If that doesn’t work, connect the iPad to iTunes on a computer–Mac or PC and see if iTunes recognizes your iPad.
The computer does NOT need to be your own–it just needs to have iTunes on it.
If iTunes sees your iPad, then try updating your iPad using iTunes.
If these steps don’t help, let us know and we’ll walk you through additional steps.
My iPad Pro will freeze, start opening and closing apps and does not respond to any touch. I reboot it and it will work for a short period then repeat earlier symptoms. Got to the point where I would reboot and it would not respond to any touch after start up. Effectively an expensive paper weight.
On my iPad Pro it appears to be hardware related.
I placed my iPad on an ice pack and upon getting very cold it now has been working…
After w while when the ice pack stared to warm up the symptoms returned.
Poor contact or a micro fracture in a ribbon can easily cause problems that will seem to go away when cooled to the point when contraction from cooling makes a solid connection. Time will tell if this works…
My iPad (model A 1822) will not download emails. Screen shows number of emails but they will not download. Yes I am connected to internet.
iPad will search and download search requests.
I did try shutting down iPad using two different methods but neither worked.
I Hague been trying for 3 days with no results……frustrated…..HELP !
Sorry to hear about your problems ith your iPad Mini. That’s truly awful.
If you haven’t performed a force restart, try that. Press and hold both the Home and Power buttons together at the same time. Maintain holding both these buttons until you see the Apple Logo on-screen, then release.
If you’ve tried that already, turn on your iPad and let it charge completely down–don’t plug it into power. If you can use it, great! Just play some videos back to back until it’s powers off. If you can’t use it, just let it discharge on its own–that may take awhile.
After it fully discharges, perform another force restart. Then, plug it in and let it charge for at least 12-16 hours uninterrupted.
I have IPad 2 ,recently my pc stopped working and now I have my partner laptop.Yesterday I tried to download ITunes on laptop so that I can do some transfers.photos were ok but with PDFs the IPad Sync on iPad was grayed out.after a coulpe of try’s a window appeared saying that I need to connect my IPad with iTunes so that I could sync.This page General > wifi sync is completely freezes. I tried to Sleep \Power button pressing together,it worked but the page is still frozen. WHat can I do ??
Sorry to hear about your PC problems and now your iPad 2!
First, on your iPad close all open and suspended apps by double pressing the Home Button and swiping up off the top of the screen all the app previews. Swipe on each and every one until all you see is your Home Screen with no open/suspended apps.
On your PC, close iTunes.
Next, restart your iPad normally (not a forced restart) by pressing the power button and sliding it off. Wait about 1 minute, and then power back on.
Now, instead of connecting your iPad via WiFi Sync, try connecting your iPad to the PC via the lightning cable (the same cable that connects to your iPad Charger.)
Once you connect the iPad, open iTunes on the PC. Now see if you can sync all your data, including PDFs.
Please close all open apps by double pressing your iPad’s Home Button and then swiping up (off the top of your screen) on all the app previews until no app previews remain. Then, force restart your iPad by pressing both the Home and Power buttons at the same time and maintain holding these two buttons until the Apple Logo appears on screen, then release.
After force restarting, open the App Store and update any apps listed as needing an update. After all apps update, try the bank app again.
Sorry to hear about your iPad going black when launching an app. Have you tried a forced restart on your iPad yet? If not, give this a try and see if it helps:
1. Press and hold both the Home button and the Power button simultaneously
2. Maintain this hold until you see the Apple Logo on-screen
3. Release both buttons at the same time
Once your iPad restarts and you get your Home Screen, double press the Home button to see all the current apps that are open via an app preview. Press and swipe up on each and every App preview to close all your open apps. Do this until no more apps show. Once done, restart your iPad normally by powering off and then powering back on again.
Try closing the app first and then delete it (if you wish to.) To fully close an app, double press your Home button or swipe up the Home Gesture Bar, then locate the app preview for your free cell app. Swipe it up off the top of your screen to close it. Then restart your device normally. After the restart, delete the app or launch it and see if it’s working again.
Having trouble w ith Webb page keeps showing message (trouble loading Webb page reloading and this is happening with lots Webb pages and when I go on my computer no problems with these Webb pages lucky for me this apple tablet was bought for me can’t read any news because it freezes then the same old message having to reload Webb page my nephew has a Samsung tablet no trouble at all.So going to throw this tablet in the bin and buy a samsung fed up owner of a Apple Tablet.
Would not mind the odd occasion Webb page but this is rediculas
Sorry to hear about your iPad having issues. Are you seeing your iPad’s scree or is it black? When it responds to your touch at the top, what exactly happens?
First, get rid of any case and screen protector if you have those on your iPad. Wipe the screen clean with a microfiber cloth or glass cleaning wipe. Then perform a forced restart by pressing and holding both the Home and Power buttons until you see the Apple Logo on-screen, then release.
Have you tried connecting it to iTunes to see if iTunes recognizes your iPad?
If you don’t see the screen at all or parts of the screen only, we’re suspecting that your screen cable or connector has become loose, damaged, or misaligned–if that’s the case, iTunes should recongize your device normally. If you determine that the likely suspect is the screen cable or connector, then your iPad needs a hardware repair. Contact Apple Support, an Apple Certified Repair Center, or visit an Apple Store for further inspection and guidance.
If the screen is showing but not responsive, it’s possible that a factory restore will help.
Connect your device to the computer you have it synced with via the syncing/charging cable.
Open iTunes
Plug your iPad into the computer’s port
Select your iPad in iTunes
If iTunes recongizes your iPad, perform a backup and then click Check for Updates. If an update is available, move forward with updating via iTunes (make sure you backed up first in the previous step)
If iTunes does not recognize your device, force restart it by pressing Home and Power at the same time until you see the iTunes logo on the iPad’s screen OR you see a message in iTunes to Update or Restore. Try updating and follow the on-screen instructions. If updating doesn’t work, choose Restore and follow the on-screen directions (you will lose your data with this method if you don’t have a backup
If nothing works, contact Apple and ask for a device inspection and for them to run diagnostics.
my ipad is not completely responding rn the prob is that some places respond ans some not now those places who doesnt respond make unable to even unlock the ipad
Sorry about your iPad troubles with powering on. First, plug in your iPad to a wall outlet and let it charge up for a few hours. Then, try a normal restart by pressing just the power button. If that doesn’t work, try a forced restart by pressing both the Home and Power buttons and maintain this hold until the Apple Logo appears on screen–this might take longer than you think–keep that hold for at least 30 seconds OR until you see the Apple Logo. Then release.
If after 30 seconds, you still don’t see the Apple Logo, try using recovery mode. See if that helps.
Sorry about your troubles with your iPad. What you describe sounds like a problem with iCloud and your Apple ID. Check that you are signed into these with the same Apple ID and that your Photos App preferences are set up to sync everything you want.
If all settings look correct, try toggling iCloud Photo Library off and then back on to refresh the sync.
I tried many times the push and hold the power and hold button and wait until the apple logo will appear …but it was not fix my iPad still at the logo screen….sorry for my bad English please respond ASAP
Sorry to hear about your issues. Please make sure you are pressing the Home and Power buttons at the same time. If that’s what you already did, first, charge your iPad using the wall charger (not computer) for at least one hour. After that hour, connect your iPad to a computer with iTunes (if you don’t have a computer, ask a family member or friend and use theirs. If that’s not possible, any Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider will let you use one of their computers with iTunes installed.) After connecting your iPad to iTunes, perform another forced restart by pressing and holding power button AND home button at the same time–this time DO NOT release the buttons when you see the Apple logo. Wait until you see the iTunes Recovery Screen. This is a picture of th iTunes logo and a cable trying to connect to it.
Once you see the options in iTunes to restore or update, choose Update. iTunes tries to reinstall your iOS without erasing your data.
i tried updating my iPad and it is frozen. i have tried all the steps above and nothing has worked. i will try the other steps saying to plug into my mac but will i lose all of my pictures and apps on my iPad?
Please take a look at this more in-depth article and see if these tips get your iPad unstuck! Just connecting your iPad to iTunes will not result in any data loss. However, if iTunes wants you to restore the iPad and if you do not have a backup available, you do lose data.
So it’s important to try everything else before restoring your iPad. And when you do get it working again, don’t forget to backup using iCloud or iTunes (or preferably both!).

I was doing the IOS update and my ipad got frozen. After about 30 minutes, I tried turning it off and back on. Is now stuck on the iTunes icon screen with an icon of the power cord.

I have tried these steps numerous times and did the update through iTunes. Now it just shows the apple on the screen and won’t restart. Occasionally if I do the hard reboot, the home screen will flash and then it disappears quickly and it is back to apple. I don’t want to do the restore with iTunes because I don’t want to lose my files. I have tried the update through iTunes and was very hopeful, but still no luck. Please help.
I was fully freaking out and going into panic attack mode! It wasn’t working, the regular stuff was not responding and then I tapped it on the back while it was upside down and pretwnded like I was taking a screen shot but holding both buttons down. IT CAME BACK ON! This was after a full day of not working! Thanks so much for the help!
I had iPad (32GB) purchased from cousin. It was not reset when I purchased it. I later purchased iPad2 (64GB). I do serious work on it (iPad2) and don’t want my daughter messing things up, so I left her the iPad (32GB). It came to a head when the memory became full and I also could not upgrade the iOS. I could not delete my cousin’s pictures, music, films and games (because I don’t have his password). I gave it to him recently to reset. He did, but I haven’t been able to restart it. When I connected it to my PC (Lenovo Core 13), 3 ports out of 4 report that the USB malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it. The 4th port says nothing and the iTune logo and USB cable images remain on the iPad’s screen. I’ve tried all the combinations of HOME and RESET botton options, nothing works. Pls help.
My iPad has a white box on screen stating

It will not let me shut the system down. I can’t do anything!!!!
Can someone help me out?
Thanks SERHAT KURT,
Issue: IPAD FROZEN, NOT RESPONDING, HOW TO FIX
I Try this tip:: If tip above does not work, try resetting your iPad. To do this, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.
Iused iPad mini at evening. Put it into charger. In the morning it didnt start at all. Backside was warm like 50′ c. Battery dead? Battery life has been going down fast.
Good tips. Thank you. I tried restarting (hold sleep/wake button) several times. No luck. I tried resetting (hold sleep/wake button and home button simultaneously). No luck. After reading your article, I decided to try resetting again, except this time I held and held and held the sleep/wake button and home button. It took almost thirty seconds, but the Apple logo finally showed up. I let it go. It took almost 60 seconds to restart. Some process must have been eating up all the processor’s time, but it seems to be working fine now. So, again, thanks.

I bought my Ipad Air 2 in January 2015. Last night i plugged it to charge, when i woke up this morning, the IPAD was completely dead! Black screen, inresponsive, wont turn on. I tried a different charger and plugged it to a different power socket, same result. Please advice.
Thanks
I was using my iPad mini as it was charging (at about 68% charge) in the wall, left it for a few minutes, then when I went to use it again the screen was black, it was off. I left it charging hoping it would eventually come back on and it didn’t I tried turning it on using the button at the top – didn’t work. I tried resetting it by holding the home button and the power button at the top – didn’t work. I tried plugging it into my macbook, but it doesn’t show up in iTunes at all and still won’t respond when I try turning it on/resetting it. I’ve had this iPad mini for just over a year and have never had a problem with it. I use it almost daily. What is the problem? How do I fix this?

3) Now open My Computer. Select your device and open it.
4) Go to Ipod/Ipad_Control> Device>
5) In Device folder you can see _Locked file. Just Delete it.

Hi Ralph,
Can you provide us some more information? What model iPad and what iOS version does it use? Find this information in Settings > General > About.
hi, my brothers ipad air 2 is frozen and you can’t turn it off or do anything. I’ve restarted it and it didn’t work. I plugged it into the computer and connected it to iTunes. it reset everything and it turned on like a new ipad but it’s still frozen and wont do anything. so I’ve left it on charge but if you know a way to unfreeze it please let me know because my brother needs it for school. thank you 🙂
Hi Steph,
Have you done a forced restart? Press and hold the Home Button and the Power button together and keep holding them until you see the Apple Logo on the iPad’s screen, the release both buttons.
See if the iPad works
Nothing worked.its stuck in a game with an advertisement on top.i can see game playing in background. And, I can movement in advertisement but I can not get rid of ad or turn off iPad. I can get camera slide over the clock screen. I vmcan not get into any apps. I’m am so sad please helo
Hi Cindy,
Can you open the app switcher? Try double pressing your home button so your apps appear as tiles on the screen. Tap the tile for the app that has that advertisement and swipe it up off the top of your screen–this forces it to close.
Once the app closes, power off your iPad, wait a minute or two, and power back on.
You may need to delete that game app and restore the purchase via the app store.
My iPad Air freezes for no reason all the time. Reboot fixes it. But so annoying. No matter what I am doing.
Hi Sami,
Try closing all your open apps and then restart.
Close an app
1. On an iPhone or an iPad with no home button from the Home screen, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause slightly in the middle of the screen
2. On an iDevice with a home button, double-click the Home button and swipe right or left to find the app that you want to close

Hi Linda,
Sorry to hear your iPad is not starting up.
Please try a forced restart instead of a normal restart:
* On an iPad with no Home Button: Press and quickly release the Volume Up button. Press and quickly release the Volume Down button. Then press and hold the Side/Top/Power button until the device restarts.
* On an iPad with a Home Button: Press and hold both the Home and the Top (or Side) buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
If that doesn’t work, connect the iPad to iTunes on a computer–Mac or PC and see if iTunes recognizes your iPad.
The computer does NOT need to be your own–it just needs to have iTunes on it.
If iTunes sees your iPad, then try updating your iPad using iTunes.
If these steps don’t help, let us know and we’ll walk you through additional steps.

My iPad Pro will freeze, start opening and closing apps and does not respond to any touch. I reboot it and it will work for a short period then repeat earlier symptoms. Got to the point where I would reboot and it would not respond to any touch after start up. Effectively an expensive paper weight.
On my iPad Pro it appears to be hardware related.
I placed my iPad on an ice pack and upon getting very cold it now has been working…
After w while when the ice pack stared to warm up the symptoms returned.
Poor contact or a micro fracture in a ribbon can easily cause problems that will seem to go away when cooled to the point when contraction from cooling makes a solid connection. Time will tell if this works…
My iPad (model A 1822) will not download emails. Screen shows number of emails but they will not download. Yes I am connected to internet.
iPad will search and download search requests.
I did try shutting down iPad using two different methods but neither worked.
I Hague been trying for 3 days with no results……frustrated…..HELP !
My screen won’t autocorrect when I move it to vertical.
How do I reset a frozen iPad when trying to slide the power off button wouldn’t even slide?
It had a full charge and I had to wait hours till it was totally depleted so it would shut itself off.
I hope there is an easier way to fix this problem in the future.
Thank you
Hi Peggy,
Try a forced restart by pressing BOTH the Home and Power buttons at the same time and maintain this hold until you see the Apple Logo on-screen.
If your iPad uses iOS 11 and above, there is also a way to shut down via the Settings App. Go to Settings > General > Shut Down.

My iPad mini keeps jamming TERRIBLY NONE STOP!!!! The screen keeps going up n down its complicated to explain but please help me
Hi Sarmitha,
Sorry to hear about your problems ith your iPad Mini. That’s truly awful.
If you haven’t performed a force restart, try that. Press and hold both the Home and Power buttons together at the same time. Maintain holding both these buttons until you see the Apple Logo on-screen, then release.
If you’ve tried that already, turn on your iPad and let it charge completely down–don’t plug it into power. If you can use it, great! Just play some videos back to back until it’s powers off. If you can’t use it, just let it discharge on its own–that may take awhile.
After it fully discharges, perform another force restart. Then, plug it in and let it charge for at least 12-16 hours uninterrupted.
See if that helps your issue.

I have IPad 2 ,recently my pc stopped working and now I have my partner laptop.Yesterday I tried to download ITunes on laptop so that I can do some transfers.photos were ok but with PDFs the IPad Sync on iPad was grayed out.after a coulpe of try’s a window appeared saying that I need to connect my IPad with iTunes so that I could sync.This page General > wifi sync is completely freezes. I tried to Sleep \Power button pressing together,it worked but the page is still frozen. WHat can I do ??
Hi Charles,
Sorry to hear about your PC problems and now your iPad 2!
First, on your iPad close all open and suspended apps by double pressing the Home Button and swiping up off the top of the screen all the app previews. Swipe on each and every one until all you see is your Home Screen with no open/suspended apps.
On your PC, close iTunes.
Next, restart your iPad normally (not a forced restart) by pressing the power button and sliding it off. Wait about 1 minute, and then power back on.
Now, instead of connecting your iPad via WiFi Sync, try connecting your iPad to the PC via the lightning cable (the same cable that connects to your iPad Charger.)
Once you connect the iPad, open iTunes on the PC. Now see if you can sync all your data, including PDFs.
If the problem persists, let us know

When I tap on my bank app it don’t do anything
Hi Joan,
Please close all open apps by double pressing your iPad’s Home Button and then swiping up (off the top of your screen) on all the app previews until no app previews remain. Then, force restart your iPad by pressing both the Home and Power buttons at the same time and maintain holding these two buttons until the Apple Logo appears on screen, then release.
After force restarting, open the App Store and update any apps listed as needing an update. After all apps update, try the bank app again.
Hopefully this works for you,
SK
Hi
My I pad is switching on ok but when I try and select an app/programme the screen goes black?
Thanks
Linda
Hi Linda,
Sorry to hear about your iPad going black when launching an app. Have you tried a forced restart on your iPad yet? If not, give this a try and see if it helps:
1. Press and hold both the Home button and the Power button simultaneously
2. Maintain this hold until you see the Apple Logo on-screen
3. Release both buttons at the same time
Once your iPad restarts and you get your Home Screen, double press the Home button to see all the current apps that are open via an app preview. Press and swipe up on each and every App preview to close all your open apps. Do this until no more apps show. Once done, restart your iPad normally by powering off and then powering back on again.
Now try and open an app. Hopefully, it works!
If the problem persists, let us know

My free cell app is frozen. It will not let me delete. What’s the fix?
Hi Tom,
Try closing the app first and then delete it (if you wish to.) To fully close an app, double press your Home button or swipe up the Home Gesture Bar, then locate the app preview for your free cell app. Swipe it up off the top of your screen to close it. Then restart your device normally. After the restart, delete the app or launch it and see if it’s working again.

Would not mind the odd occasion Webb page but this is rediculas
tried everything the screen only responds to touch near the top
Hi Boss,
Sorry to hear about your iPad having issues. Are you seeing your iPad’s scree or is it black? When it responds to your touch at the top, what exactly happens?
First, get rid of any case and screen protector if you have those on your iPad. Wipe the screen clean with a microfiber cloth or glass cleaning wipe. Then perform a forced restart by pressing and holding both the Home and Power buttons until you see the Apple Logo on-screen, then release.
Have you tried connecting it to iTunes to see if iTunes recognizes your iPad?
If you don’t see the screen at all or parts of the screen only, we’re suspecting that your screen cable or connector has become loose, damaged, or misaligned–if that’s the case, iTunes should recongize your device normally. If you determine that the likely suspect is the screen cable or connector, then your iPad needs a hardware repair. Contact Apple Support, an Apple Certified Repair Center, or visit an Apple Store for further inspection and guidance.
If the screen is showing but not responsive, it’s possible that a factory restore will help.
Connect your device to the computer you have it synced with via the syncing/charging cable.
Open iTunes
Plug your iPad into the computer’s port
Select your iPad in iTunes
If iTunes recongizes your iPad, perform a backup and then click Check for Updates. If an update is available, move forward with updating via iTunes (make sure you backed up first in the previous step)
If iTunes does not recognize your device, force restart it by pressing Home and Power at the same time until you see the iTunes logo on the iPad’s screen OR you see a message in iTunes to Update or Restore. Try updating and follow the on-screen instructions. If updating doesn’t work, choose Restore and follow the on-screen directions (you will lose your data with this method if you don’t have a backup
If nothing works, contact Apple and ask for a device inspection and for them to run diagnostics.
Keep us posted,
SK
my ipad is not completely responding rn the prob is that some places respond ans some not now those places who doesnt respond make unable to even unlock the ipad
When i hold down the home and the turn on button for 10-15 sec on the ipad. It didnt turn on i just keep beening frozen.
Hi Patrick,
Sorry about your iPad troubles with powering on. First, plug in your iPad to a wall outlet and let it charge up for a few hours. Then, try a normal restart by pressing just the power button. If that doesn’t work, try a forced restart by pressing both the Home and Power buttons and maintain this hold until the Apple Logo appears on screen–this might take longer than you think–keep that hold for at least 30 seconds OR until you see the Apple Logo. Then release.
If after 30 seconds, you still don’t see the Apple Logo, try using recovery mode. See if that helps.

My iPad photos have stopped syncing with my I phone and MacBook Air laptop.How do I fix this please
Hi Max,
Sorry about your troubles with your iPad. What you describe sounds like a problem with iCloud and your Apple ID. Check that you are signed into these with the same Apple ID and that your Photos App preferences are set up to sync everything you want.
If all settings look correct, try toggling iCloud Photo Library off and then back on to refresh the sync.
SK
Thank you so much. I restarted my ipad by using your tips. Now my keyboard works. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much, tip #2 worked and “unstuck” my ipad mini. Glad you have this site to check for answers to questions.

Umma,
Awesome! Thanks for letting us know.

I tried many times the push and hold the power and hold button and wait until the apple logo will appear …but it was not fix my iPad still at the logo screen….sorry for my bad English please respond ASAP
Hi Kyle,
Sorry to hear about your issues. Please make sure you are pressing the Home and Power buttons at the same time. If that’s what you already did, first, charge your iPad using the wall charger (not computer) for at least one hour. After that hour, connect your iPad to a computer with iTunes (if you don’t have a computer, ask a family member or friend and use theirs. If that’s not possible, any Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider will let you use one of their computers with iTunes installed.) After connecting your iPad to iTunes, perform another forced restart by pressing and holding power button AND home button at the same time–this time DO NOT release the buttons when you see the Apple logo. Wait until you see the iTunes Recovery Screen. This is a picture of th iTunes logo and a cable trying to connect to it.
Once you see the options in iTunes to restore or update, choose Update. iTunes tries to reinstall your iOS without erasing your data.
Learn more about recovery options in this article.
Good luck,
Liz
Tip 2 worked for me , thx pal
i tried updating my iPad and it is frozen. i have tried all the steps above and nothing has worked. i will try the other steps saying to plug into my mac but will i lose all of my pictures and apps on my iPad?
Hi Nonna,
Please take a look at this more in-depth article and see if these tips get your iPad unstuck! Just connecting your iPad to iTunes will not result in any data loss. However, if iTunes wants you to restore the iPad and if you do not have a backup available, you do lose data.
So it’s important to try everything else before restoring your iPad. And when you do get it working again, don’t forget to backup using iCloud or iTunes (or preferably both!).
Keep us posted,
Sk

I was doing the IOS update and my ipad got frozen. After about 30 minutes, I tried turning it off and back on. Is now stuck on the iTunes icon screen with an icon of the power cord. Opened iTunes on my computer, plugged usb into computer, then held the home button and plugged into ipad. ITunes does not recognize my ipad. Tried using find my ipad on my iPhone, but it says the ipad is offline. I have tried numerous times using the home button and the power button at the same time. Always comes back to the iTunes icon screen. Any suggestions of anything else I can try?
My iPad does the same thing. Did anyone help you on this?
I reset my settings on ipad2 after iOS 9 because running very slow. Well it got to the logo and about 5% on the progress bar and just hangs there.

I have tried these steps numerous times and did the update through iTunes. Now it just shows the apple on the screen and won’t restart. Occasionally if I do the hard reboot, the home screen will flash and then it disappears quickly and it is back to apple. I don’t want to do the restore with iTunes because I don’t want to lose my files. I have tried the update through iTunes and was very hopeful, but still no luck. Please help.

I had iPad (32GB) purchased from cousin. It was not reset when I purchased it. I later purchased iPad2 (64GB). I do serious work on it (iPad2) and don’t want my daughter messing things up, so I left her the iPad (32GB). It came to a head when the memory became full and I also could not upgrade the iOS. I could not delete my cousin’s pictures, music, films and games (because I don’t have his password). I gave it to him recently to reset. He did, but I haven’t been able to restart it. When I connected it to my PC (Lenovo Core 13), 3 ports out of 4 report that the USB malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it. The 4th port says nothing and the iTune logo and USB cable images remain on the iPad’s screen. I’ve tried all the combinations of HOME and RESET botton options, nothing works. Pls help.
iPad won’t turn off hold both buttons it switches between home and search about every 10 seconds What can I do?
My iPad has a white box on screen stating
iCloud backup
This iPad hadn’t been backed up in 27 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to WIFI
Now, my iPad is always connected to wifi, I always slide the lock as it asks when I plug it in .
It will not let me shut the system down. I can’t do anything!!!!
Can someone help me out?
thanks for your idea my ipad is now safe
Thanks SERHAT KURT,
Issue: IPAD FROZEN, NOT RESPONDING, HOW TO FIX
I Try this tip:: If tip above does not work, try resetting your iPad. To do this, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.
It worked.
3/16/2015
Iused iPad mini at evening. Put it into charger. In the morning it didnt start at all. Backside was warm like 50′ c. Battery dead? Battery life has been going down fast.
Good tips. Thank you. I tried restarting (hold sleep/wake button) several times. No luck. I tried resetting (hold sleep/wake button and home button simultaneously). No luck. After reading your article, I decided to try resetting again, except this time I held and held and held the sleep/wake button and home button. It took almost thirty seconds, but the Apple logo finally showed up. I let it go. It took almost 60 seconds to restart. Some process must have been eating up all the processor’s time, but it seems to be working fine now. So, again, thanks.
Hi all,
I bought my Ipad Air 2 in January 2015. Last night i plugged it to charge, when i woke up this morning, the IPAD was completely dead! Black screen, inresponsive, wont turn on. I tried a different charger and plugged it to a different power socket, same result. Please advice.
Thanks
I was using my iPad mini as it was charging (at about 68% charge) in the wall, left it for a few minutes, then when I went to use it again the screen was black, it was off. I left it charging hoping it would eventually come back on and it didn’t I tried turning it on using the button at the top – didn’t work. I tried resetting it by holding the home button and the power button at the top – didn’t work. I tried plugging it into my macbook, but it doesn’t show up in iTunes at all and still won’t respond when I try turning it on/resetting it. I’ve had this iPad mini for just over a year and have never had a problem with it. I use it almost daily. What is the problem? How do I fix this?
My iPad suddenly went black with 65 percent power. Dose not appear to charge. Appears dead what can I do
I was using my iPad then it suddenly froze when then I pressed de sleep button then it turn black but when I press de home button siri answers what should I do

1) Connect Ipod/Ipad to Itunes on the computer.
2) Go to Organize> Folder & Search Options> View> Show Hidden Files & Folders.
3) Now open My Computer. Select your device and open it.
4) Go to Ipod/Ipad_Control> Device>
5) In Device folder you can see _Locked file. Just Delete it.
6) Now Disconnect the device and Enjoy…
will apps,pictures, and etc. not be deleted?
is organize located in Itunes? i cannot find it in Itunes the organzie where is it located all I can see is organize library
Thank You! I was surfing a lot of sites to find this easy solution…
