Ipad model A145 (2011)

My Ipad has worked well the past seven years, with heavy usage it had begun to deteriorate a few years ago. Having many glitches and getting slow, it has finally stopped completely. I have had to perform restores about three times in the past, each attempt has always worked; however, today it crashed, and a glitchy screen came up, and then it went blank white and turned off, so far i have tried to complete a factory restore multiple times, i do everything right, follow all the steps, plug into the computer, etc. the computer says the restore is completed and i attempt to "set up as new ipad" but, nothing happens, at all. When i turn the screen on the ipad, a white screen comes up, with a blurred gray rectangular border around the inside. attempting to turn it off does not work whatsoever at this point. And i have attempted a restore about three times now, i fear that there is no hope, but i have no option in getting a new one anytime soon, this ipad contained information thats all very important to me, and i already know even if i got it working again i will have lost months of data due to my last backup being a few months ago, (sept. 2017) but it would be better than nothing.


Is there anything that i could possibly do to restore it, myself that is?

iPad Wi-Fi, iOS 10.3.2, 7 years old

I’m sorry to say i think you’ve done all you can. If you have an apple store or authorized service provider in your area you could make an appointment and take it in to see if they can help you, even if they can just help you with the date.


Unfortunately you may have just experienced the harsh lesson of regular backups.
