Q: ipad air screen turned black and now i cannot charge it or turn it on
I was using my ipad air when the screen turned black. I assumed it needed to be charged (the bluetooth drains the battery very quickly), but the device will not charge - I've tried both the charger and my computer. Still black after 3 days.
iMac, iOS 5.0.1

iTunes
Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
