my phantom 4 just flew away

I connected my ipad to my computer ,and tried to down load 1 to a file ,2 to my dji account
That sounds like your problem then. You won't be able to retrieve your TXT flight logs like that. Follow these instructions:

 
David, nobody's turning on you. It's just that when someone posts on here and they're offered very specific instructions and they fail to respond at all for several days, it appears as though they weren't really looking for help. Nobody can really help without your flight logs, including DJI. Without the logs, how do they know you didn't just sell it to someone else or you flew it into a volcano or your wife put it in the garbage, etc. Watch the video Msinger posted and follow his instructions to a T. I'll bet you'll find your logs and Msinger or someone else here can tell you what went wrong. If there's no evidence of pilot error in the logs then you have a much better chance of getting a free replacement. Without the logs, your claim to DJI is toast. You might even find a local drone repair shop that could help you retrieve your logs. Ipads, in particular, are funny things when it comes to log retrieval. If you don't do it EXACTLY as instructed, they appear to be missing. Watch the video, please. I, for one, am quite curious about the cause. If you can post the logs (they're there somewhere), one of the smarter-than-me guys here can probably determine exactly what went askew. Everyone here is willing to help but you have to do exactly what they tell you to do and you have to report back fairly frequently. You're only giving us vague answers and not giving us anything to work with. To quote a friend (and I want to slap him silly every time he says this), "Help us help you."

You posted screenshots of DJI GO. Where in the video above do you see it telling you to open DJI GO? You must export the flight logs from iTunes.

While you are flying the Go app records flight data like a black box recorder.
This data is very useful when investigating incidents and finding out what happened.
We've seen many lost Phantoms from around the world found right here because of this information.
And without flight data, DJI will ignore your claim.

David ... what's coming across is that you are not comfortable around computers.
Do you have a friend or relative that is computer savvy, that you could get to help you find the relevant flight data by following the instructions you've been given?
 
here is what it shows ,it says video cache is empty ,so im thinking my ipad is defective because there is no other video

David ... no-one has asked you for video and whether the video cache is empty or not makes no difference.
What you have to find is your flight record.
The screen shot you attached is from Healthydrones.
You uploaded your flight record to Healthydrones to get that.
 
David Johnson, it looks like you found your TXT flight log -- since you were able to upload it to Healthy Drones. Please upload the TXT file here and post a link back here.
 
Well, you're almost there. You just need to upload your TXT file to my log viewer so we can see your flight data.
 
It's the file you uploaded to Healthy Drones.
 
ok I did it it is showing 3 flights in beginners mode,it shows some aerial views 2 ,power sensor control wind
Yes ... that's what Healthydrones is showing you
But what you need to do is follow the instructions you've been given to upload the same txt file to
https://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/Upload/
And come back and post a link.

If that is too difficult for you please get someone to help you.
