I got this iPad mini 3 years ago for free when I traded in my car. The warranty is done. It just froze up tonight. It didn't come with an instruction manual.
Tonight it kept saying "server can not be found". Now it won't turn off or even move off the screen. Would love to reboot but it won't let me.
It also isn't charging. |

Did you try holding down the power button and the other round button on the front at the same time? That worked once for me.

Here are Apple's instructions for a Force Restart: support.apple.com/en-us/HT201559Just like Blissfully said, just hold both buttons until it turns off. It will save everything you have on it. |

THANK YOU! It just worked this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
About an hour after I had written the above question, the screen did unfreeze. I did hold down the buttons last night, but it still wasn't working..wouldn't even charge.
Maybe I didn't hold both buttons long enough? I had used it while on my treadmill and after I got off, grabbed my cell and remote too, maybe I pushed the wrong buttons.
Serves me right for trying to exercise.
THANKS AGAIN!
