Force restarting will not erase the existing data in your iPad, so you can operate without worry. Follow the following steps to force restart the iPad according to the iPad models:

  2. Slide the slider to turn off the iPad.
  3. Long press the Top button until you see the Apple logo.

To exit DFU mode, press the Volume + button and quickly release it, then press the Volume – button and quickly release it, and finally press and hold the Side / Top button until the device restarts.

iPad with Home button:

After following the above steps to make the Apple device enter DFU Mode, iTunes or Finder will display the Recovery Mode dialog box. But unlike the Recovery Mode, the Check for Update option is not optional, you can only select the Restore iPad option.

Then follow the prompts to confirm the operation and don’t operate iTunes/Finder and Apple devices during the process.

To exit DFU mode, just keep pressing the Side/Top and Home buttons until the device restarts.

Method 3: Enter iPad Recovery Mode

NOTE:  If your issues can very well be fixed through a simple update to your iPad, you can choose the Update option, which will keep all of your content and personal settings.  But if this does not work, you might have to choose the Restore option, which will cause you to lose all data. So if you don’t have a backup on iTunes or on iCloud, you had better choose Update first. 

Method 4: Contact Apple Support

If none of the methods above work, there are chances of issues with your iPad’s hardware. In that case, you can try contacting Apple support. You can visit the nearest Apple authorized service center to know more about the problem and get it fixed by authorized personnel.
