My ipad is stuck on the apple screen

I have restarted my iPad numerous times with no luck. It stays on the apple screen and does not go any further. Anything else I can try?

iPad 2, iOS 9

Keeping your iPad plugged in, Try a "forced" restart of your iPad, using these instructions:

  • On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top (power) button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
  • On other iPad models: Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top (power) button. Only when the Apple logo appears (it might take 10-20 seconds), release that button (ignore all other screens that might appear, the one with the "slider" to turn the device off included).


If the issue persists, it might be a hardware (battery? charging port? other internal component?) failure, but we, just users like you, cannot diagnose that kind of issue remotely.

I suggest that you make an appointment (*) and have your device inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) among this list:--> Apple – Location Selector. After checking it out, they'll give you all the available options.
