What to Do if Your iPad Won't Turn On
On occasion, you may run into problems using the Apple iPad. One such problem is the hardware failing to turn on. This is rather significant, as without power, you are unable to perform any desired task on the device.
The good news is that there are a few methods for troubleshooting and correcting the power issue. By following a few simple iPad repairs, can have your iPad back up and running within minutes.
Step One: Rebooting Your iPad
Start off by holding the Sleep/Wake button, located at the top of the hardware for a few moments. Eventually a “Power Down” icon appears on the iPad screen. Swipe your finger across the power down option to turn off the device. Often times, the iPad appears to not be turning on, but in actuality it is just frozen or locked. Restarting the device corrects this issue. Leave the iPad off for a few minutes, and then power it back on. Once it completely boots up, the iPad is ready to go and full functionality returns.
Step Two: Resetting Your iPad
If the above step doesnt work, youll need to reset the iPad. Keep in mind that resetting the device restores the hardware to the factory settings, and then uploads all the saved information back onto the equipment (just make sure you follow the steps properly so you dont lose any saved data)
To reset: Connect the iPad to the docking computer and load iTunes. Select the equipment under “My Devices,” then click “Reset” in the middle of the iTunes screen. The hardware then begins to reset. Do not disconnect the equipment from the computer as this may corrupt the hardware. At the top of the iTunes program window, it displays how much longer the rest should take. Once complete, a prompt appears at the top of the screen, notifying you of the completed process and that you are free to disconnect the equipment from the docking computer.
The above are two possible steps that may help if your iPad wont turn on. If you are still having problems, you may want to seek the services of a qualified iPad repair service provider.

Dictation – the modern way!
There is no doubt that today’s workplace has been completely revolutionised by the advent of digital recording. It’s certainly the case that in these days, you are no longer tied to the office, dictating the old-fashioned way or having to carry around bulky dictation equipment or cassettes. Now, at the touch of a slimline button, you can record your dictation easily and quickly as a voice file, which can then be recorded and played digitally. This means that your voice files can be sent and received anywhere in the world within seconds. This is a really useful business tool to have at your disposal – files can be send and received, wherever you are, in seconds. It’s so quick and simple to do. Many users use specialist handheld digital recording machines for their recordings. This equipment comes in a wide range of shapes and sizes and can be purchased from a wide range of suppliers.
There are literally hundreds of different types of machines to choose from, from more basic low priced gadgets to all singing, all dancing, everything but the kitchen sink, higher end models. You can look online for some real bargains to be had, or, alternatively, just look on your high street; there are various high street electrical equipment retailers which carry several ranges. As mentioned, there are many options to choose from, with prices to match. It’s best you experiment to find the one most suited to your needs.
Digital dictation is much the same as the old analogue recorders that were recorded onto cassettes, however, now you are recording data onto a microchip instead of a cassette. Smartphone technology has gone even further in making digital voice recording even more user friendly. You can now use many mobile phones as your digital voice recorder. What could be easier? Once your dictation file has been saved, all you need to do is to upload it to the internet, either onto a PC or laptop where you can send it via email to the person who will transcribe it or you can upload it to a transcription company’s website to be transcribed professionally. There are many professional transcription companies out there offering excellent quality transcription services, companies who can handle your digital files in a confidential and secure manner.
Also, with Smartphone technology and with some digital dictation equipment, you can bypass uploading to the internet altogether, the technology there will give you the option to email the file directly – no need to upload first. That leaves more time for you to do other things, which is always welcome!
