I-Pad won't import photos using Camera Connector. Screen goes black. What t

I purchased a 16 gb I-Pad. I bought it on line from the Apple store. I also purchased a Case and a Camera Kit.
I have been unable to use the Camera kit. Every time I try the connection is broken between the I-Pad and the Camera Connector. I thought that maybe I had a bad Camera Connector so I had my friend try it on her I-pad. No problem! Worked great. She was able to select and import all photos and when the import was complete it told her. We used her Camera Connector on my I-pad just to double check but just as before when the import process begins the screen goes black and if I'm lucky maybe 1 pic will import. We used my camera card on both I-pads so I feel confident that it is not the camera card. How can I get this fixed? Is there something I need to do? Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks for the suggestions. I have removed the I-pad from the case to eliminate the possibility that the Camera Connector wasn't making good contact. Didn't think about the sleep & home button. The connector I use when plugging into my computer works well. No problems, the I-Pad is visible in I-tunes and I can sync and make changes without issue. Just the Camera Connector is unable to import. The connector sees the photos and I can select them but when importing it goes black. Thanks again.
