iPad Air could not turn it on. Genius Bar called a "dead unit.

Our meticulously cared for iPad Air we paid about $600 for 3 years it is abruptly stopped working last week. He was accused beautiful a day of work at 100% and would not regain power on the other.

I initially it swept and plugged back in another take and gave him more than 24 hours to recharge. It is still not responding liked when trying to power on. I followed all the instructions online for the buttons power / home - try another loader on my iMac.

Finally, I called the Apple store and make an appointment - thinking that it should be a simple solution / cheap. HA!

The employee brought to the rear to run a test on it and back 5 minutes later to tell us there is no "common" found "is a unit of the dead". He said "it's irreparable, so your options are here" (pulling up the new iPads prices). Confused, I asked ' well... What is wrong with him? The battery? We can not just difficulty it?'. He said it could be the battery, a problem with the connector - anything, but said that it would cost $300 to fix, then we might as well just buy a new. He also said "you might be able to sell it for not much online, but I don't know what the retail value is a dead unit". Great customer service.

Here, I thought that I invest in a good quality unit, shelling out the extra for 64 GB, etc. seemed worth it. Well, I can not yet wrapped my head around to be able to justify the replacement of something that can stop just "inexplicably" working on a coin, and there is nothing they can do.

This is a user to user support forum. You do not discuss Apple here. What is your technical support question? The unit is, by your admission, 3 years old, two years outside of the manufacturer's warranty. You can either buy a new iPad as engineering explained, or you can buy a similar device in the form of a replacement under warranty for a discounted new, refurbished and with a 90 day warranty. The decision that belongs to you.

Here is a link to the box that describes the costs for warranty replacements, depending on your exact device. iPad other repairs - official Apple Support

    1. Thank you.

    you experience serious problem... because usually it works very well.

    Try the following:

    SQL > shutdown immediate;

    SQL > bootable media.

    SQL > alter flashback database;

    SQL > alter database backup controlfile to trace noresetlogs;

    SQL > shutdown immediate;

    go to the trace file generated from running (alter database backup controlfile to trace noresetlogs ;)

    location of the trace file is located in the query:

    SQL > select * from v$ diag_info;

    It will contain the script with the SQL commands, you can rename the file with the extension ".sql".

    SQL > startup nomount

    SQL > @trace_file. SQL

    SQL > restore database;

    SQL > alter database open;

    So basically you are going to recreate the files of control again...

  • My iPad 2 could not activate after installing 9.03. Say... could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailalble. I tried to 'activate' for four days... went to an Apple store bar 'Genius' and still no solution.

    I have an iPad 2 and before executing the last IOS 9.3 update, it was a camera works perfectly well. I don't have any iCloud upward. I have the valuable photos and info on my iPad that I don't want to lose!  Now I can't even use it!  He failed to activate after the execution of the update and is now in an infinite loop.
    The display shows the following:

    Could not active iPad. Your iPad could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try to connect your iPad to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple if minutes. If the problem persists, contact Apple support. .... Try Again... and again...

    I was 'Try again' for four days and spent a day at the Apple Genius Bar store.  They could not find a "fix" and suggested I send my iPad in California and pay for data recovery, because the next step would be to wipe my iPad!  ***!

    I understand that you're angry about the issue of server activation, but sittuations as why it is so important to backup your data using iTunes or iCloud. You never know when you might have to restore from a backup.

  • iPhone, iPad Air 2 not recognized by iTunes

    Very frustrated right now. Given that Apple's Support is not in contact with return despite requests, the story will go here. I have Windows 10, iPhone 6 + and iPad Air 2. Last weekend I was invited to and did pass to iTunes 12.5.1.21. Plugged my iPhone 6 +. Not recognized by iTunes; 'sync' gray. Tried the same thing with my iPad 2 Air. Same result. I get no error message.  Here are my troubleshooting - what I'm missing, Apple?

    1. Lightning card Checked, works fine with other devices.
    2. Rebooted PC.
    3. Rebooted IPhone.
    4. Restarted iPad Air 2.
    5. I've tried different start up sequences (start iTunes connect manually; first)
    6. Went to 'Upgrade device via Device Manager' - these devices are working properly.
    7. Updated my iPhone and iPad 2 air for iOS 10 successfully.
    8. Apple email support; 48 hours later they gave me another email address for contact.
    9. Chose the Contact Apple Support via phone option - screen "we will call you - your phone will ring at any time.  Still waiting for the phone to ring.
    10. From Discussions on Apple's site with troubleshooting tips, have tried all suggestions with no luck - If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone, iPad or iPod - Apple Support.
    11. I even opened and closed the blinds completely throughout my house to see if that would help.  Go figure.
    12. The last resort on them, says "Contact Apple support" - see #9 above.  Twice.

    Apple-Support - What should I do at this point?  I'm all ears, and Android is looking better and better during my next upgrade.

    Happy to report that I finally found a position that has fixed this. Someone has to give Community contributor turingtest2 a price, they had an incredible post in communities that have corrected my problem.  See below for the excellent suggestions.

  • Could not turn off not disturb

    Hello
    I turned on do not disturb, restarted my phone and now I can not turn, do not disturb off the coast. I can change the volume through settings and the phone rings while Do not disturb is activated.
    The restriction is that I can't change the volume using volume keys or do not bother go far. Work volume keys, I tested with Diagnostics. When I press one of them, I see the icon of DND and a now key that does not work when they are hit. Here too, I can change the volumes of media and alarm, but not the volume of the ringtone is specific to DND.
    Restart the phone, or to go in safe mode does not help somehow.
    Please notify

    Okay, so I fixed it and it occurs once after that. The solution is to reboot the phone and press the volume key to turn the volume down until reach you vibrator, continue to press until a message appears next to the end key now, moment at which the button will finally work and finally turn off DND. The message goes something like this: 'until the DND's off... ' Nolramlb thanks for the tip by pressing the volume keys upward on several occasions, it obviously helped a lot.

  • HD is dead, could not turn off

    Hello

    My main PC at home yesterday lost its SSD drive.  I do not turn off the creative cloud on my previous installation of Windows before he died.

    I reinstalled Windows and I have also reinstalled the creative cloud.   Will I have problems with the registration / using my creative cloud apps?

    FYI: I also have creative Cloud installed on my laptop.

    Without any problem. You can activate your product on 2 machines at the same time:

    Example: You select PC1, PC2, if you try to activate a PC3, this action will disable the PC1 and PC2. If you yourself PC1, it is regarded as a second machine and if you yourself PC2, it will be considered as a second machine.

    Hope that's clear

  • Could not do a monthly subscriptions even call made? can I be reimbursed?

    Hi I recently bought a monthly subscription, but I really struggled to communicate with friends via Skype monthly subscription telephone calls - and finally I just gave up, as we could not really speak this end via Skype - Skype subscription to their landline number or mobile phone number. They do not even live in a rural country, they live in the cities.
    But each time, the call quality was terrible. Both ends could not really hear what other talks end as the voice has not been transmitted continuously.

    Can I have money back guarantee, even I kept your comments, but there was no other action performed by Skype.

    Thank you

    Thanks, but it was too late so I couldn't use this normal procedure. However, I managed to find a center of discussion of the Skype team and explained the situation, and she has settled that the.

    They asked me to do this kind of report to them directly in the future, because soon, I have suffered this faulty network.

    Chat support is that when people really stuck with the problem, I thought, as this time I didn't use the refund form, which you mentioned, like, they put the time limit (only 14 days) for people to make a claim about the return.

    Thanks anyway.

  • IPad 2 could not find my printer

    I just bought a HP Envy 4500 printer in order to print from my Apple IPad 2. Printed on my orinter configuration page says that I'm connected.

    However, my IPAD says that it is impossible to find my printer, the same thing when I try to print using EPrint.

    I have not yet installed this printer on my home computer as I prefer to wait to see if it works well on my IPad.

    I tried to turn off the router, printer, and the IPad and turn them after, without success.

    I need to install this printer on my computer first? The seller told me that I had not.

    Any solution?

    Finally, I found that all I had to do was clear the name of my WIFI on my IPad and my printer name appears suddenly and I could print.

    I had checked and had Hello on my router.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer...
