Make sure you completely charge it Before you use it. When you turn it on hold the "on" button until the screen lights up then release it. Mine takes about 10 seconds or so to turn on regardless of the amount of charge it has. Then it takes maybe another 10 seconds to load all the programs. Once that happens I can use it. Be careful using it as it gets hot. Not too hot to handle but to hot for kids to use. Good luck.

Hi Carlos!I really have to dissapoint you but it fails me since the first time. I let it charging like 12hrs and it didn't take charged. When i tried to use it did not turn on. Letting plugged the powerd cord it start; when unplug turns off. I tell Amazon's customer service my problem and they told to return it and full refund.That tablet is a crap!!!

what you should do is,,1. un-plug it and reboot ur tablet,,2. turned the power off,,wwait about 5mins ,, 3. power up ur tablet ,,if not fully charge ,,4, plug the charge in ,,and see the indicator ,,should show charging sign,,5. if it doesn't it mean ur charging port is defected !! 6. the charging port is very sensitive ,,by forcing and wiggling it a lot ,,you may have damage the charging port ,,

You must hold the switch until it come on.It takes about 3-5 sec. Hope this helps you. If the screen saver cut tablet off then it only takes about 2 sec to turn back on.

When you try to turn it on do you hold the power button down until it makes a sound? And when I first got mine it took hours to fully charge

Return it, I had the same problem with this tablet....turned it on once, set it up, let the battery run down, charged it overnight and then when I went to turn it back on it wouldn't turn on. I did notice that the little light that indicates charging next to the screen would turn green when I turned it on and if I were to turn it off it would turn red. This indicated to me that it was charging but something was wrong with the screen or a connection somewhere. I know it's frustrating but I would just return it and get a refund and purchase a different one! Good luck!!

I have had no problem turning the device on, it does need charging more frequently than others. Typically I leave it plugged in overnight.E

There is no way to be certain what your problem is. If you haven't as of yet, hold your on/off button in until the tablet has gone completely off. After about a minute turn the tablet back on again.Also you might try plugging in your power cable. Once mine went off for no reason I know and when I plugged in the power cable it came back on. If none of these action correct your problem they you will probably have to take it to Barnes and Noble and have them find out what the trouble might be.

You usually have to hold the power buttons for 2-3 seconds for it to turn on. It isn't something there you just press it quickly like most electronic devices.

Wait 48 hours after that connect the charger to the tablet it should start charging same thing happened to me once it starts charging turn it back on and continue charging and i usually recharge mine at 50 percent

I have found that the power button on this tablet is somewhat sensitive. I often have to push that button multiple times to get the tablet to power up (this is the only drawback of this tablet I have found). I would try to turn on the tablet by holding the power button in longer than normal. And keep trying.If it won't turn on after doing that, then I would contact Digital Reins. They have great customer service.Good luck!

From what I recall the package stated hold it down for 5 seconds to turn on. If it's literally a minute and you're not over exaggerating then is not normal. Try double tapping it, thats how my turns on. Good luck.

This tablet is junk... And to answer your question, yes, this is one of many issues with it. It is very slow. Got for my son for Christmas, and he hasn't even really been able to use it. Price was good, but definitely worth the money to buy a better one.

I hadn't really tested battery life, so I fully charged the tablet, then set up the power controls to never turn off the display or PC. Then I set it down and let it run. So far it has been 6 1/2 hours and it's still going. The battery indicator says 11% left for 38 more minutes. I suppose the power consumption might have been somewhat higher if I were streaming something, maybe I'll try that test after this, but it definitely has a good battery life. This test was run with WiFi on but without the bluetooth keyboard.
