Ipad Pro shuts off while charging and requires a hard reset to turn on

Same issue here. Got mine last Wednesday and have had to do a hard reset every morning since.

I got mine on the 13th same problem took it to Apple had them back it up to the cloud , they restored software from their machine. We restored my backup from the cloud it's working fine now 12 hours later. Let's hope it was a bad batch of factory loaded software.

I had to hard reboot (Home/Power) this morning. After that, the battery was 100%.

It worked fine since I got it on Wednesday.

The stock answer of "Full backup / Restore" is starting to get really annoying. I don't have time to do this with every single device that I'm having problems with.

Currently, I am much more "Annoyed" than "Delighted".

SOLUTION: disconnect the iPad from its charger BEFORE starting the iPad in the morning.

This is working for me ... until Apple corrects this bug.

I work at a school and one of our iPad Air 2's is doing this.

I took it to Apple and they told me to keep track of when it does it and if it keeps doing it to bring it back. Initially I had to do a restore, and now every time I charge it overnight, when I get back to it, it wont start the normal way, it must be a hard restart.

Changed cable to charge with overnight and all was fine. I'm still running iOS 9.1. Did not turn on airplane mode or anything, left it as usual.

So I am guessing it's 9.1 with this new cable as it seems that the .2 beta's fix it.

Oh forgot to add. I used an existing charging cable (non-apple but certified) and did not have the issue this morning. I used the long lightning cable that came with the iPad Pro on my iPhone 6 plus last night and no problems with that.

So I am still thinking but reading everything here that it is either this new long cable, or iOS 9.1 or both relative to the iPad Pro ONLY. I'm not going to upgrade to any beta or take my iPad into the Genuis Bar. Going to wait for an iOS update or other solution from Apple. Otherwise, it works fine.

I agree. I see the potential, and actually have been using my ipad pro more than any other device / computer in my household. I just don't like the fact that I was having to hard reset it, and I'm sure it's upsetting to people that don't know how to hard reset it, nor making people who are having the issue feel in love with the device. I've changed eco-systems in the past for such reasons like that. Who wants to have to deal with resetting devices to work with them? Not I. Part of the reason why I'm trying to track down what exactly causes it and see if I can replicate the problem consistently and replicate a solution consistently. Especially since there seems to be no word coming out of Cupertino. (I don't think people should expect it, but it's disconcerting nonetheless).

Also, for the record, people who may think why not jump ship then? Well, we're talking about a device that saves everything in the state it's in, and if my ipad locks up and I have to do a reset once a day, that's 15 seconds of my life once a day. My windows laptop that was rebooting itself or crashing every 40 minutes was not 15 seconds of my life once a day.

Of course, if my apple pencil had shipped at the same time as my iPad Pro I would only be slightly annoyed. As it is, 60% of the reason I bought this isn't here, so that means the annoyance at the current issue is consuming a large portion of that other 40% of my reasoning, thus right now, making me pretty grumpy about it. Once I get the pencil I'm sure my grumpiness will turn back into small annoyance till it's fixed, and then when it's fixed become pretty indispensable.

Same issue. Each morning after having been on charger overnight, hard reset is required. I have 128GB LTE model. I have cellular data turned off as I am running off WiFi in my home office. Glad to hear it's not just me; disappointed that it is any of us.

I am using a short lightning cable with iPad charger and I having the same issue. Hoping it is software and a fix is in the works.

Same issue here, however it happens to me even when not charging. I don't see any app that would crash it. i only have a few installed. never happens while in use though. only when sleeping, charging state doesn't seem to matter.

It is a less severe problem, but there are many people whose iphone screen doesn't light in the morning for alarms or calls.

Screen stays dark when alarm goes off in the morning

I have an iPro Pro 128GB LTE that I did restore from an iCloud backup when I initially set it up. Last night was the first night I plugged it in overnight for a full recharge and woke up this morning to this issue. The iPad appeared "dead" and I have to press and hold power and home button for a while to hard reboot it. It booted up ok and showed 100%.

iPad Pro 128GB LTE. Set up as a new device.

This morning required a 2-button hard reset, and it restarted and had a 100% charge.

I was able to replicate the problem many times. I had the IPad pro not restart after charging hit 100%. I needed to do a hard restart. I turned off "backup to ICloud''. Did this multiple times and I have not had the problem again. Hope this helps
