I've noticed for the last few nights that when I wake up my iPad is dead. I have one of the new iPads. I then try to turn it back on and it will not come back on Intil I do a hard reset. For all of my life I always left the TV on when going to bed. The new iPad became my regular TV to leave on when I went to sleep at night. But now it's dead when I wake up. Does anyone have an idea why this is happening and possibly what I can do to make it not happen again.
Got a tip for us?

i think hes talking about why does he have to do a hard reset to get it to come back on?
Sorry I wasn't clear. Ive been doing this with my gen 1 from the beginning of the iPad. So I have a routine of plugging it in every night. To be clear this is not a battery issue. I wake up I try to turn it on. I realize it's dead. I hard reboot and it has 100% juice left. So something happens before morning that makes my iPad power down.
OK I see what you're saying. I would try resetting your iPad settings that way you won't lose any data and see if that helps. Besides doing a restore the only thing I can think of is calling Apple support and see if they have any other ideas.
