ipad stuck on apple logo screen

Follow me to solve iPad stuck on apple logo:

Connect the iPad by USB to the computer

Launch iTunes

Put the iPad into DFU mode by holding the Power button for 3 seconds, while continuing to hold the Power button also hold the Home button for 10 seconds, now release the Power button but continue to hold the Home button for another 15 seconds

iTunes will alert you saying an iPad has been detected in recovery mode, click “OK”

Now select the iPad in iTunes and click on the “Restore” button

RECOVERY MODE

1. Turn off iPad

2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)

3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port

4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.

DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug.

5. Release Home button.

ON COMPUTER

6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.

7. Select "Restore iPad"...

Note:

1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup

2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

3. Repeat the process if necessary so that you can fix iPad stuck on Apple logo issue.

My ipod just did that then I plugged it into the computer to see if that would help..it didnt so with my ipod plugged into the computer I reset it (hold the off and home keys for 5-15 mins) then the plug into itunes thing poped up and it needed a update. That should help. The update will take 24 mins to download and after that itunes will restore your ipod... have fun. If you don't know how to fix iOS stuck on apple logo, you also can try some recovery tools.

In addition to force restarting and DFU mode restore, there are still other solutions for fixing iPad stuck on Apple logo:

1. Press and hold the Power and Home buttons till the screen is black, press and hold Volume Up and Power buttons until Apple logo reappears, and then release the Power button but keep holding the Volume Up button till you see the lock screen.
2. Restore or update the iPad in recovery mode. If you see any error codes iTunes, you can find the exact issue in the article: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204770
3. Use a third-party software to reinstall the iOS without restoring.

If you don't have access to an apple computer then you should wait for yoyr battery to die then charge it , once it's charged it will restart and you will be back to your normal lock screen . This one worked for me

Reba,

You responded to a very old thread. You might get more and better responses if you asked your question by starting a new question. Explain what you are trying to do, what happens and describe any error messages you receive.

I had the very same issue, couldn't go past the apple logo black screen. Tried this 3 steps and it worked for me.

1. Turn off or restart your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
2. Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
3. Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
4. When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.

Remember make sure the usb cable is plugged to the computer with itunes running then and only then press the device's home button and plugg the other side of the usb cable to the device without releasing home button then you'll see the connect to itunes screen on your device and you will be ready to restore your device.

Hi , what ti do if dont have a back up on icloud, but itunes want me to restore my ipad forst and then using it. How to make a back up if I cannot turn my device on&

I have tried all the steps in this thread and non have worked, my iPad mini is still stuck on the apple logo and will not go any further... and on my itunes it says "Waiting for iPad...", it can stay like that for an entire day and nothing, I unplug it from my computer and still stays like that till battery runs out...

Please help me!

I went to the Genius Bar two weeks ago and the person who "took care of me" simply said my iPad was dead and would not work again because the screen hardware has faulty, I decided not to give up and tried to charge it two days ago, and the screen turn on!! It went from error 4005 to error 3194 and now no error it's just stuck on that screen every time and itunes on the same message. 😕

Hi, dealing with the restore after having the apple logo issue on the iPad. Have done steps 1-4 no problem. Now in iTunes in restore mode, however, it will not move past waiting for iPad. This is more progress than before, although it has stopped. On the iPad it shows the logo with the install line underneath but isn't communicating. Frozen here.

Hello there,

I am very sorry to reply to an old thread but this issue is still following us like a ghost.

Your advice was helpful once. However, now my iPad3 is stuck on "the Connect to iTunes screen" and iTunes does not react to the connection via cable.

So what do I do now? I have bee using this device since 2012 and never purchased the support. (very simply there has not been any need for)

I would be very thankful if someone could provide me with further instructions.
