The first-ever activity tracker created for kids, LeapBand features a pet pal, interactive games and daily challenges that keep kids engaged and excited to reach goals. LeapBand tracks a child's accomplishments and rewards them with more fun. Keep kids engaged and learning with mini-games like Pet Boogie, and Pet Chef.

The most likely reason LeapFrog Connect is unable to communicate with your device is a missing or improperly installed driver. We have seen instances where ESET Nod 32 security runs a proxy scan which interferes with the sync.
If the LeapPad still won't turn on, it could be that the battery is dead. At that point in time, all you can do is replace the battery. It could also be a malfunction with the power button or an issue with the software, but I'd make sure it's not the battery before anything else.
First, turn My Own Leaptop™ off. Next, hold down the "P" and "M" buttons while selecting one of the two volumes. Then follow the instructions given by My Own Leaptop™.
