Help please with iPad

[Kili01]

My new iPad has suddenly 'died' after I put it with the battery charger. Now it can't be turned on. Can anyone suggest where I can take it to be repaired, please?
I bought it just over a year ago from Public, but it is probably out of warranty now.
I am now using my old one, but that is probably on its last legs now.

Thanks for any useful suggestions.

Pressing the sleep and home buttons seems to 'fix' a number of problems, it's the iPad equivalent of re-booting your computer. That's what google told me, anyway. Similar things happen on android tablets.

This worked for me.

If you still can’t get it to work I would highly recommend SOS in Chlorakas. They always sort ours out for us.

Dominic,
Many thanks! I used your method and it worked! After a few minutes of vigorous( by my standards) pressing of the two buttons it suddenly came back to life again. Must be the iPad equivalent of shock treatment!
What a relief. I will try that technique again in the same situation....
Thanks again, Dominic.

From AL (with a big smug smile)- Thank goodness I don't get such issues on my Win7 desktop!

>HIC..may I ask what you did please?

It was a few weeks ago now. I just did a search on Google...and I'm pretty sure it was Dominic's suggestion which came up and worked first time.

But ... you still haven't told us what you did?

[Dominic]

Yes he did. You quoted him saying " I'm pretty sure it was Dominic's suggestion which came up and worked first time".
