Anybody know when the hardware issue with the "IPAD PRO" will be fixed? The issue that keeps it from starting after charging.

Thanks for the response Chris. This is the only official response I can find from Apple on the 9.2 IOS update:

iOS 9.0 - 9.2

There is no mention of the IPAD PRO issue. I would hate to spend that kind of money and have to "force restart it" all the time. Maybe I am over-reacting. You seem quite active in the support community...have you seen this problem come up a lot?

I purchased the iPad Pro and it worked fine for three days. On the third day, the battery was running low so I plugged it in to charge. The iPad would not recognize the connection and wouldn't charge. I tried a hard reset and it did nothing but bring up a picture of an empty battery with a lightning symbol which means to plug it in. After doing online research and speaking with Apple Support, I found out there is a software glitch causing this problem that Apple is currently investigating. I also found out that there is an issue with the latest update (which does not apply to my situation because I did not do an update).


I returned the iPad Pro, the case, and the Apple Care for a full refund. I did not want to do an exchange until Apple resolves the software issues. What really stinks is that I turned in my second generation iPad which was working fine. Now I am without an iPad.
