During day-to-day use, iPads do not regularly turn off -- pressing the button that turns the screen off is akin to putting your computer to sleep, not rebooting it. Unlike computers, iPads almost never need to restart, but turning the device off and on fixes some glitches including apps that crash or freeze and stuck App Store downloads. To deal with major errors that don't get better after rebooting, erase your tablet's settings or restore it to factory conditions. Have a question? Get an answer from online tech support now!
