If their batteries drain all the way, Nexus 7 tablets can be temperamental about restarting, even after a long period on the charger. Here's how to force them to start up, as long as the battery has been charging for a little while: hold down both volume buttons (up and down) and the power button for about 10-15 seconds. (This can require a little bit of dexterity. You might need both hands.) When the green 'Android' icon appears on the screen, you'll see the word 'Start' inside a green box in the top right, near the power button. Press the power button again to force the Nexus to start.
