Q: My iPad mini wont turn on

A while ago I was charging my iPad mini and the charger head broke off in the charging part of the iPad. Ever since then it hasn't turned on and it won't charge or anything.

    Forgive me if this is an obvious question, but don't you mean the cable broke off in the port on the iPad? The charger head - if that's waht you want to call it - would be the block that plugs into the wall socket? And if it did break off, were you able to completely remove it from the port? I know this seems obvious, but if there is a broken piece stuck in the port, of course you are not going to be able to charge the device because you won't be able to plug the cable in.

    Okay the charger part that plugs into the ipad..the tip broke off and was in the charging port of the ipad. But it wasn't like stuck, it was just after this happened my iPad hasn't turned on or has been able to be charged with a different charger
