If iPad isn’t responding, do one of the following:


  • On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
  • On other iPad models: Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top button. When the Apple logo appears, release the button.




Note: If iPad still doesn’t turn on, or if it gets stuck during start up, see the Apple Support article If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t turn on or is frozen.

Does this mean that I need a new battery.? My iPad comes on and says 100% charged then won’t go on later shows a battery icon on the screen with just a small amount of red meaning it needs to be charged...but won’t go on after it’s been charging for many hrs. Then might go on hrs later then same thing over and over...
