Had my first one 15 days after 1 yr guarantee ...went to apple store....almost 50 miles away...... Busy!! Anyway, was told it was dead and they replaced it for a nominal fee......but, they would not sell me the extended warranty and only guaranteed it for 90 days......."that is policy". Was only explanation I was offered.......over a yr ago.......still working, but I wait for the day it dies...then I buy a Microsoft whatever it is called ............I don't live on this thing so I really don't care...

Try a new charger cord. Mine did the same thing and my grandson used his cord on mine and it worked.

Call the company where you bought it. My husband died and he called them. They replaced it free with all his info restored back on it.

Great to hear you are back on with your iPad. For now and the future, do you have the Users' Guide for the iPad? It is available for free on the App Store. Also, batteries on iPads seem to belong lived but eventually they give up. I am keeping track of mine - just in case.

I would call the Apple Store. They should know the answer.

Yikes, that had me going for a minute. Glad they were able to bring him back to life! Lol.

My kindle has did like that before. Turn it on, then turn it off and hold the off button for at least a FULL 60 seconds. Do not let up on the button for the whole time. Then wait 60 seconds and turn it back on. It worked for me a couple times.
