Your iPad doesn’t do anything anymore? This could be going on!
Your iPad no longer does anything and you can throw it against the wall out of frustration! But hold off on that for a while because the tips below might help you get rid of this irritating problem. This may be going on:
- iPad no longer responds to touch
- iPad screen is black (does sound and vibrate)
Note that we are talking about an iPad that is on, but not doing anything. Read our other article if your iPad stops booting.
iPad no longer responds to touch
The iPad crashes and does nothing, a super irritating problem. The screen is on and the buttons still work but it does not respond to touch. When it crashes, it is also not possible to turn it off in the normal way. Then try forcibly rebooting it. Your data will not be erased on a forced reboot so a backup is not necessary. Follow these steps to perform a hard reset:
- Models without a home button: briefly press the volume up button. Press the volume down button briefly. Then press and hold the power button until the iPad reboots.
- Models with home button: press and hold the home button and the top button (or side button) at the same time until you see the Apple logo.
