My RCA pro 10 tablet wont turn on. I had it working yesterday but now it wont come back on. It is charged up and everything. I just got it two weeks ago. I don't know how to take the back off or anything.

There is a little hole on the back of the tablet. The manual says to put a paper clip in that while holding the power button. It worked for me.

I had the same problem with my son's. had to call rca tablet support. 18554759646. they tried a few things didn't work so they r replacing the tablet sending it out should be here in 7 to 10 days with a prepaid return shipping for the broken tablet. was quick and painless hope this helps.

I had 2 RCA pro 10 inch tablets, same thing happened. What you need to do is hold the power button down for a loooooooooooooooong time until the dang thing will turn on. After you do that you shouldn't have further problems. The first one that did it I had to press the power button down without releasing for about 5 minutes...

Thank you so much! Mine just went out tonight and I was looking up the number to call RCA and found your solution of just holding the power button in for a long time. I had to hold mine in 3 minutes and then it came on. Thank you -- problem solved!

My pleasure, I tried the RCA route first and they were clueless or didn't want to admit this is a widespread problem. I'm glad it helped, it should help anyone with the same problem. I think the cause may be from shipping them at full charge, but not sure.
