Hold the OFF button until it shuts off. Wait 30 seconds and start it up again

It has an issue. You cannot allow it to fully charge. If it is then the entire screen goes blank and you cannot do any thing unless the charge comes down. It works fine if it is partially charged.

Sorry for the delay in responding and by now it is probably too late but the charger I got broke on the first try and I returned it. I replaced it with one from Duracell which I ordered thru Amazon. I think the new iPad mini is the "new" connection and I have no answer for you, sorry.

Yes, I'm noticing that it happens after it comes back from hibernation for me. Screen opens bright for a second, then goes dim. I suspect something with the power-saving options compromising the screen performance. Still haven't figured it out :(

My 2Gb nano that is just a few weeks old also freezes up. I had just synched it not that I think about it. I've had it freeze about two other times but when I did the reset it worked ok. This time, it will not even reset. I guess I have to let the battery run down because it is frozen with the screen fully lit up. I loved my last iPod but swore I would not buy another one because of the problems with the 20 Gb HD. I got another one because I thought with the flash memory I would not have as many problems. Rats.

It took my full size ipad from 10% back up to 80% before the powerbank was empty. so presumably it might do even better with your mipad mini? If your ipad mini lasts for 5 hours say while watching movies on its own battery then presumably the powerbank would power it for around a further 70% of time so that would be 3 and 1/2 hours? I'm guessing as I don't know how long you can currently watch movies on your ipad mini.

Mine worked fine. However, I was replacing the factory one because I replaced the battery in my iPad and ruined the glass in the process. While testing it, I forgot to turn it off and handled the glass with the power on. This seemed to mess up a good portion of the glass - hence the need to replace it with this one.

We just had a similar incident with one of ours. we just let it run itself down till there was NO battery life left. I almost threw it out because I thought it was broken! I decided to charge it one more time to see if I could get it to work and it had reset itself and came on and worked properly. just let it go till it is dead dead dead and then try recharging it and see if that works

First is your iPad mini Bluetooth function on? If so then turn on your keyboard and try to connect. If it still doesn't work you may have to charge the keyboard. If all else fails it's possible that the keyboard could be defective.

First of all was this a new device or used when you purchased it? I've bought many iPads through Amazon and sometimes little things do slip through the cracks. The charger or charger cable is one easy to over look item. Both are inexpensive to replace from Amazon If I were you I would go ahead a purchase a "new charger and cable". Worse thing that could happen is you have an extra cable or charger. Speaking from experience, Apple products are usually very tough but, chargers can burn out and cables can kink or short out. Please let me know if this works. P.S. You'll know immediately if this was the problem. The iPad will make a loud ding indicating charging in progress and a lightning bolt or plug image will appear in the battery icon.

make sure you are closing all your apps before charging back up, press the "Recent apps" soft button (left of the home button) then press close all. clear your notifications as well, swipe down then press X under the sound bar. I've noticed that turning off wifi also cuts down on recharge time and greatly increased standby time when the tablet is not in use for hours at a time. i'll update this post with more info when i charge mine from 5-10% to full, as i haven't brought it down that far yet. keep in mind that this is quite a large capacity battery (9,500 mAh) hence the 13 hour use time without charging, compared to the recent iPad Air's 8,800 mAh/10 hour battery. its going to need some time to get back up to fully charged.

If it's under warranty, I would say fix it. Talk to the company where you bought it from. 6 weeks and.it doesn't work, that's not right. But if you take it somewhere to be fixed. It would probably cost more than to buy a new one. Some people have said, to put electronics in the freezer for acouple of hours. Believe it or not, it does work. I brought back to life a dead xbox 360 by doing this. It does something to electronics inside. Doesn't hurt to try n its free. Good luck, and if you decide to buy another one. I strongly suggest an iPad & not android.

I turn tablet off for 15 seconds and back on , that sometimes works. I had to take first tablet back because of that problem. Also seems to connect better with a good battery charge.

After replacing my LCD mine was blank as well. It seemed to work because I could hear sounds. I was fortunate to have another mini so I mapped out the screen (location of buttons) and was able to unlock the mini and reset it. The screen works fine now. I guess the software just needs to be reset. Maybe a full power down and back would work as well but you would need to identify where you need to swipe to power it off.

It was new at purchase. We had an issue with charging it up -- it took hours for the charge to move up a few percentage points. Advice I received from seller to re-boot the iPad by holding both the power button and main menu button worked perfectly. Once it rebooted itself it now fully charges in an hour or so.

My ipod froze once. I went to the ipod website and tried all the listed cures and none seemed to work. After a day, the battery drained, I recharged it and it has worked fine since. I use the ipod in an ihome alarm clock with remote so that may have caused some problems but like I said, it only froze up once and has worked well daily since.
