Restarting your iPad by turning it off and and back on can sometimes fix minor software or connectivity issues. All the programs running on your iPad shut down naturally, then get a fresh start when it turns on again.

How Do I Restart My iPad?

  1. Press and hold the top button and either volume button on your iPad.
  2. Release both buttons when a red power icon and the phrase "slide to power off" appears on your iPad's display.
  3. Swipe the red power icon from left to right to turn off your iPad.
  4. Wait approximately a minute before turning your iPad back on.
  5. Press and hold the top button to turn your iPad back on.

Pro Tips

  • If your iPad has a Home button, press and hold the power button until the "slide to power off" screen appears. Then, swipe the power icon.
  • To turn an iPad with a Home button back on, just press and hold the Home button until the Apple logo appears on screen.
