My sons iPad randomly went into a reboot mode. With the laptop and charger screen. I tried updating and it said it couldn't and said it needed reboot. So I tried to reboot it and it's still saying it's not able to do so and still won't let me use the iPad and starts over on the laptop of the reboot stage.
