Apple acknowledges mysterious shutdowns
Some iPad Pro owners have noticed some
strange behaviour in their new 12.9in tablets.
Normally when you charge a device, unless
the battery has completely died, the screen remains
responsive. But some iPad Pros are completely
freezing, then dying, after a recharge.
Apple knows about the problem, but hasn’t said
why it’s happening. There doesn’t seem to be a
real fix for it, either – at least not yet. The company
published a support document on Thursday advising
Pro users to force restart their tablets to bring them
back to life, but that’s not really a long-term solution,
because the issue is ongoing.
