Q: Ipad 4th Gen not working at all
Hi
I have an iPad 4th Generation WI-FI and I got it less than 2 years ago and now it doesn't work at all. I will explain a bit more about what happened to it in more detail below. So I was taking photos with it and after I was done I turned it off or as Apple call it "sleep", well I pressed the power button in other words like everyone does, right? Then in the evening I went to go on it and it was blank and wouldn't respond but in the morning it had about 30% battery but anyway it put it on charge using the Apple adaptor and I let it charge for like 30min but when it was charging it kept on showing the Apple logo every 20 seconds but wouldn't go past it. So when I took it off charge I tried holding the Power and Home buttons at the same time for about 20 sec and after about 3 to 4 tries it showed the restore iPad sign with the Lightning cable and the iTunes logo on top of it, so I plugged it into my computer and iTunes poped up and said something like:
iPad 4th Gen detected the device needs to be restored. (By the way my laptop is Win7 and had the latest iTunes on it) So I clicked the restore button and it said EXTRACTING SOFTWARE and after that the line stopped moving and a window came up saying: Unkown Error 4005 and 4013 and it took me to the Apple website and I did all the steps they told me to do and it didn't work and kept on saying the error thing. So I took it to an Apple store and the guy there said he waz restoring it and downloading new software for it and it ended up not workin for him either, but he told me there is nothing to do cause the 1 year warranty expired. Anyway now it doesn't show anything at all not even the restore logo, the apple logo nothing it completely blank and Ive had it on charge for like 2 hours. And I haven't dropped it or anything it doesn't have any physical damage or that. So yeah what should I do? Any suggestions will be appreciated
iPad, iOS 7.1.2
