Dear Sufferrers:
I received an IPAD Model A1430 from my son recently. While using the device, an update to IOS 8.1 popped up on my screen asking if I would like to update. I did want to update and pressed the button to do so.
It tool a long time for the update to download but when it did download, it started installing. The installation got to about 9\10ths of the install, and then froze. I let it sit like that overnight and in the morning the install had not moved forward so I shut down the device and later attempted to turn on the device.
What I got was a rectangle on a black screen with a thin strip of red at the beginning of the rectangle. It then went away, and now I have a completely useless IPAD. I am new to the second coming of Christ so you can see how disappointed I am with the Apple folks.
What is the issue? Is it a completely dead battery which will cost me lots of my hard earned cash to fix? If I get my hands on that scruffy kid in the PC vs MAC ads, I'm gonna choke him.
Respectfully,
James
