Assuming that the iPad's battery isn't empty, have you tried a soft-reset/reboot to see if that gets it to boot up ?
Try this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Oh my God!!!!am soo happy,my ipad is okay nowwww,thank you and God in heaven,one of the repairers in Nigeria has already told me that I'll change the screen and I've been crying,thanks thanks
Hope it will freeze again
Try a Reset...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

There are instructions on this page for resetting a disabled device : iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled - if you are being prompted to enter the iPad's passcode then try recovery mode towards the bottom of that page
Hello,i did as you said and my ipad went blank for about 15mins now without switching On again,what is the issue now,please i need to know if there's what I'll do,thanks
i did press both the buttons but again it is showing the same error that my ipad is disabled. what to do now?
I am trying to connect it to the iTunes as well but the error occurs that my ipad is locked and I must enter to passcode to connect it with the iTunes. I can enter the passcode but my ipad screen is disabled and it's not working.
My wife's iPad 2 has this problem since we upgraded to v9. Coincidence?
Every time we power it on, it would freeze after you try to slide with your finger. If you wait until screen goes blank and then push the Home button, you could slide and put in your passcode.
This problem occurs only after you turn on the iPad with the power/wake button. Being a retired MS-DOS computer guy, I tried different things.
The solution for my wife was, to disable the passcode feature in setup. I never have this problem now. Security is not an issue for what she does.
I Am not going to try to install a older OS to see, if IOS 9 is the reason
Do a hard reset and let it restart.
Thank you so much. It worked! Happy New Year!!
Thank you, you helped me too....... Thanks!!!!!
You are a life saver. I wasted my whole morning with this problem. This was a quick fix. Thank you, thank you!
Sorry, I meant to reply to Demo. Thanks for posting the question to the same exact problem I was having. It's fixed now.
This was the first time this has ever happened to my ipad in the 2 years I have had it. I tried your suggestion and it worked like a charm. Thank you so much. 🙂
