Hello heleneM_0655,
Welcome to CCM
It's how you do it that matters, press the Power button and Volume + button at the same time, of course, and for long enough to get a screen where you should see Wipe Data/Factory Reset.
This is the option you need to select to reset the tablet; if you haven't backed anything up before proceeding, you'll lose all your data, just so you know!
Best regards

He who does not please upon arrival always does so upon departure.
O Breizh my country, I love my country!

Hello,
The small hole at the top of the tablet is the microphone!
If you put a needle in it, you have destroyed it! Great!
Please provide the exact model of the tablet. There are several Tab A models.

What is well conceived is clearly stated,
And the words to say it come easily.

Additional information:
1) The complete tablet manual, including its description at the beginning and the position of the microphone: here.
Test the microphone once you have managed to restart the tablet. Hopefully, everything works!
2) Another tutorial for resetting: Go to the second part of the tutorial

The power and volume - button restarts the tablet but I always end up on the pattern.
I can't access the Wipe Data/factory Reset display
The model of my tablet Galaxy Tab A is the SM-T515
And it doesn't matter if I lose my data, it's a lounge tablet, I use it for my music and when I go on trips. I can reinstall the essentials...
Press the Power button and the Volume + button simultaneously
When you get a display on the screen, hold the Power button only until the Wipe Data......... page appears, it should work.
