iPad not responding to touch

My iPad will not respond to touch; therefore, I can’t restart it. Any suggestions? It just started this overnight and was fine last night.

iPad, iOS 9

See if it is a temporary glitch, trying a "forced" restart of your iPad, using these instructions:

  • On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top (power) 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 (power) button. Only when the Apple logo appears (it might take 15-30 seconds), release that button (ignore all other screens that might appear).
