Faint dark line on edges of iPad Air, is this normal?

Hi, I have an iPad Air that along both long edges of the screen has faint dark lines.  It's more noticeable on white, and tan color screens.  Is this normal?  Thanks all!

Look like the plastic molding process is not perfect in your top shell surface, or some component might attach to that area that make the layer that block the light from lcd is not covering those area.
I don't have my MacBook with me so I cannot give you any idea or comparison, hope somebody will post either they have same issue or they inform you that they dont have any of that.
Just discuss this with you apple store or apple dealer if you feel this is annoyed, bring your picture along with your MacBook and even better print this thread so they now you are serious and not faking it.
Actually it is kinda cool when you drew up small layout of the spot, it makes your MacBook one of a kind. If you post this thread on 6/6/06, it might give me goose bump, just kidding.

    Try holding the lock button and the home button at the same time if this does not work let your ipad run flat recharge it then turn it on and see what happens

    I have recently purchased an IPad Air. This comes with "IPhoto" as well as it's usual photo App. I do not have a Mac, instead I am syncing it to my windows PC. Is there any way of actually moving a picture around, (arranging photos in a single album), in either of these apps???? They claim to be able to "Organize"  or "arrange" Photos, but for the life of me I can't figure out how......could you recommend any apps that actually allow someone to move individual photos around on an IOS Device.

    No, reordering within folders and albums is not supported. the yare arranged automatically by date. I found this, but I have not used any of the apps besides iPhone. You might check the descriptions to see if they do what you need.

  • My lock screen only stays on on for a millisecond on start up ipad air is this usual

    my lock screen only stays on on for a millisecond on start up ipad air is this usual.

    Thanks for the replies.  I like to power down most of the time to save battery so if it's gonna be normal for me not to be able to get to the slider screen before it goes into sleep I guess  I will have to accept it.  However I'm sure I remember rightly that the first few times I used it after set up it used to stay on screen for several seconds to allow me to slide the button over.  Now it never does and to be honest I would expect it to wait after all you don't boot up your PC and then it immediately go into sleep mode unless something was wrong.  I thought most things when powered on would let you sign in or whatever before "going to sleep". 
    Just concerned to do a reset in case the darned thing does erase stuff which would seriously tee me off.  Appreciate the feedback guys.

  • Blue line down center of iPad air screen

    I purchased the new iPad air on Thursday (07.11.2013) . I was thoroughly impressed and excited upon receiving my first iPad only to find 3 days later while scrolling through Facebook a sharp blue line appeared straight down the center of the screen. I thought this May have been caused by the Facebook app and been just a glitch so I turned it off and back on again only to find it was still there and present on every screen even the apple startup screen. I have tried resetting the device but still with no prevail. I have rung the company I purchased it from and they are happy to replace the iPad, however, I am still very angry and annoyed that a company that charges such ridiculous prices for its "high quality" products suffers from such basic faults. I would have though that with 4 predecessors apple may have been able to work out all of its kinks/faults by now!
    I was wondering whether  anyone else had experienced this issue and whether they know what exactly causes it and if they managed to resolve it  or if you've just replaced it?
    P.s. The. iPad had not suffered from any previous impact nor been damaged or tampered with.
    Any comments greatly appreciated!
    iPad air 16GB wifi edition

    I went to authorized reseller in Wellington, New Zealand.  And they said that they would look at it and in 2-3 working days it will be resolved. They need the 2-3 days to verify its not a software fault or had water damage or had been dropped.  In my case it is definitely not the case of software fault or damage.  So in all likelihood I will get a new replacement after 3 working days.  They told me to keep it over the weekend and go back on Monday (its Friday here), and by Wednesday.  Thank Heavens for Apple international warranty, I'm so thrilled by this level of service.
    I did do the restore to factory settings to make sure this blue line was not a software glitch turns out I have had this fault for 1 week.  It is strange that this did not manifest until it was 2 months old.  Again as previous owners have said its been hardly used.
    Thank you for the Support!!

  • TS3716 Connecting iPod nano 3rdGen to ipad air, is this possible as I no longer have a PC to manage iTunes library?

    Hello I no longer have access to a PC for iTunes library but have just purchased an ipad air and wondered if it's possible to use the air to manage my iTunes library for my iPod nano 3rd gen ?
    Thanks

    i noticed this as a bug in iTunes. make sure the correct file is selected in the preferences menus. It does not have to be the default location directiory as Vazandrew stated. your iTunes music library can be anywhere you want it. i have mine on an external cuz i'm a dj and have over 80,000 songs.
    once you select/verify the location of your music library, simply drag the folder into the left panel in iTunes from a finder window. iTunes does not automatically add the items like it use to for some reason.

  • I just downloaded iOS 8 on my iPad air. This has caused the file names of all of my PDFs in iBooks to revert to their original file name when I downloaded the file, not the custom file names I gave them after downloading the files. In the list of fil

    PDF file names changed with iOS 8

    Further to above
    Progress Notable!
    But before I outline the details, I wish to apologise to APPLE for laying the blame at their doorstep for loosing or misplacing those PDFs I have on the iPad 1, when I set up my iPad Air , by restoring from the backup of iPad 1, thus copying all data from the old to the new.
    NOT REALLY THEIR FAULT AT ALL
    Because a lot of the many PDFs had the same name, ie PDF.pdf, probably my fault more than anybody else's, so I can't blame APPLE for that. Just goes to show one should be a little more precise in creating these portable documents.
    No wonder the poor program " lost its' marbles" when doing the updating and conversion/transfer.
    However, I was able to recover most of them by personal email, and extracting and RENAMING the PDFs as I located them in their new home.
    Those PDFs that we're locked an thus not email-able , I will deal with by
    Viewing
    Photoeing (if that's how you spell it).
    And re-building the PDF from the photos, in unlocked format, after transferring these files either by Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, from the old to the new iPad.
    So all is not lost, and I am thankful that my cautious approach to this matter in the first place, gave me the ability for this successful recovery.
    That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
    I hope this little story of my saga/experience may prove helpful to others yet to cross the chasm of updating.
    Regards to all, including APPLE.
    NICE STUFF YOU MAKE.

  • TS3195 I am able to see my iphone 4 as a drive on my win8 pc, but am not able to see my ipad air. This allows me to copy files from my iphone to my pc. Why not?

    When I plug my iphone inot a USB port on my windows 8 computer, it apperars as a device and I am able to see and select photos co copy to my win8 pc.  When I connect my new ipad air, it does not appear.  Why not?

    Thanks again.
    I had photos taken with the ipad air on the ipad air.
    I followed the instructions in the link you gave, for Windows 8 PC
    Step 5 says to right click on the logo for my device.
    I could not find a logo for the ipad air and was unable to click on "improt pictures and videos", since there was no logo.
    Below are two screen captures.  The first is for my ipad air and the second is for my iphone.  It looks like my Windows 8 OS can see the iphones as a portable device, but cannot see the ipad air in the same way.

  • Why did they change the shape of IPAD AIR? This isnt practical

    i've noticed that typing on the new ipad air is a burden and hurts my hand because they have made the width larger than previous models.
    I really wish they would leave well enough alone.
    Anyone else have this issue when typing on an ipad air?

    Add me to the list as someone who is beyond happy with the new size of iPad Air.  It's the single best change to the device yet!  And to the OP, maybe your ruler has different measurements than mine.  iPad Air is not wider than previous devices.

  • Ipad air speakers buzzing normal?

    Has anyone else had problems with the new ipad air speakers? I've tried watching a programme on lovefilm, and had to turn the sound up quite high as it was muffled. It then sounded a bit distorted and the whole ipad was vibrating, so bad I could feel it all through my fingers. I then was using skype and I was getting a weird buzz feedback when I spoke, which I never got on my ipad 3. Does anyone know if this just standard for the  ipad air, or is it possible I have a faulty one?
    Ash

    I just picked up my REFURBED IPAD Air 4/25/2014 & I st it up 4/26/201 & all ready have a issue with it.  Getting the muffled sound when playing a game, using ITunes & watch a movie.  Pretty sad that you pay 500.00 for the highly rated IPad & you get issues.  I also noticed that this highly rated retina display is not what it is cracked up to be.  My samsung galaxy pro 10" is a heck lot better quality

  • After installing Lion on my Mac mini I no longer get a sound whe I plug in a usb device, and sometimes iTunes does not recognize my iPad.  Is this normal (lack of usb recognition sound)?

    After installing Lion on my mini, I no longer get a "recognition sound" when I plug in a usb device.  Is this normal?

    I am not sure any Mac every had a sound for plugging/unplugging USB devices.
    You may be right. It's only on Windows that the sound is created and heard.
    I know that since Tiger on this MBP, when I plug in my external scanner, I never heard anything.
    And plugging in my Blu-Ray recorder also does not make any sounds.
    I cannot speak for anything but my Mac laptops, however. Desktop Macs might make a sound.

  • IPad Air auto brightness doesn't dim

    Hi guys I recently purchased an iPad Air, and I've noticed an auto brightness issue. Whenever I unlock the iPad in a bright room and move to a dark room, it doesn't dim (I've had it dim TWICE following that scenario, but after a long wait--30 minutes or more). Now when I unlock the iPad in a dark room and move to a bright room and then move again to a dark room, the iPad brightens and dims as it should. I've updated my iPad to 7.1 with the same behavior. Restored shortly after and same behavior. Erased all settings, reboot, etc. EVERYTHING. I'm aware of having to lock/unlock the iPad to "readjust" to dim lighting, but is that the case for all iPads? Is this normal behavior for an iPad?
    My iPhone 5 on 7.0.6 does it all automatically (without having to lock/unlock) for as long as I can remember. The iPhone 5 brightens and dims according to the light. Bright room to dark, it dims. Dark room to bright room, it brightens. It works perfectly.
    I would just like to know if all iPads are supposed to act this way, and if so then why when going from bright to dark it doesn't dim, but when I go from dark to bright to dark then it dims correctly?

    Have the same issue. Have you solved it?

  • AirPlay not showing up in iPad Air

    I've read the articles about this and tried the basic troubleshooting. Bottom line is that my iPad Air won't display AirPlay, but the person standing next to me has an iPad that will. We're on the same network, same everything. Makes no sense. Our IT people haven't even figured it out yet. Seems to be a 50/50 chance with your iPad.
    <Subject Edited by Host>

    AirPlay requires an iPad 2 or later >   iOS: Use AirPlay Mirroring
    It's not a matter of chance. It depends on whether or not the iPad supports AirPlay.

  • Issues after updating ios 7.1.1 on my iPad Air

    I just updated my iPad Air (32GB) this morning to ios 7.1.1 from 7.1. After updating, my iPad Air just went into recovery mode... I have more than 26GB data in my iPad Air... I tried several ways to reboot the iPad. But I still cannot turn my iPad normal... It's very very very disappointing because I have to connect to iTunes and erase all my data in order to get the iPad functional... That's so disappointing!
