  • My iPad only has a blank screen, it will not open at all. I tried to restore and that did nothing. I am not sure how to proceed. It is charged.

    My iPad only has a blank screen. If you press the two buttons to try to get it to restart all you get is a faint light for al few seconds and then it goes back to a black screen. I did try to restore by hooking up to my mac, but I still have nothing.

    First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Hold those buttons a long time before letting them go. Also it might be best to leave the iPad on the charger overnight before resetting it.
    If this doesn't work, it's time to make an appointment at an Apple store for a Consultation.

  • My iPad Mini has a black screen and does not respond to anything.

    I got my iPad Mini 6 days ago, and this morning I woke up to it overheating (to a point which any contact with it, or the case) was painful. Along with this overheating, the screen was and still is black. The iPad is not responding when I try to turn it on, off, hard reset it, etc.. It has not been taken off charge in approximately 6 hours, so I highly doubt lack of battery is a reason.
    HElp, please. And thank you in advance.

    Time to make an appointment with Apple.

  • Mac Mini Has Black Blank Screen on Wake Up

    Hi Forum
    I have started to Sleep/Wake my Mac Mini between midnight and 6 am when not in use and i see that on wake in the morning it appears to have a Blank or Black screen.!?!? anyone have this?
    It seems to be working. i think this as i log on to it using my MBP, as the Mini is headless. When i connect ot the Mini on my MBP, i wouldnt be able to activate Screen Share if the Mini didnt react to being connected. Its in my sidebar to connect to, and does connect, and i can access its files. I dont have a screen connected directly to it.
    Any ideas? Its fully up to date. i can turn it off and on and i get full view and functionality, although i didnt want to be doing that each and every day

    Hey all,
    I have the same issues right now, I have a late 2012 MacMini attached via HDMI to a 65 inch LED LG Smart TV. Power saving settings > both on never. Schedule settings > Shutdown at 2am every day, Wake or start up at 8am every day. Security / Privacy settings > Login without password. Screen saver settings > change picture every minute. This is all in an attempt to keep the MacMini going so I can use it as my HTPC.
    I am controling the MM using a MBA 2013 via screen share, this works fine when the TV is powered on, but after turning it off the screen sharing becomes sluggish and unresponsive, also causing it to freeze, go black and make the cursor work like a paintbrush/eraser when navigating the screen,  basically everything stated here in the forums. Is Apple ever going to fix this bug? the whole reason I wanted to use Mac Osx is because I want to get rid of Windows all together and create a pure Mac environment in my home.
    I have been scouring the forums and google to find a solution for this problem which is becoming quite a disillusion for me right now and it is defeating the purpose of having the MM for my HTPC use.
    Look forward to any all replies, cheers, Plucka

  • Ipad mini has disabled!!!

    my sons ipad mini has disabled. the screen went black as he was playing on it and wouldnt turn off. I managed to turn it off by pressing the sleep and home buttons together for 10 seconds and now it wont turn back on. I have plugged it in to charge to see if that makes any difference but it just keeps beeping while it is plugged in. please please help as this was a christmas present off his dad and i really dont want to have to tell him that my son broke it!!!!!

    Looks like the computer is restoring your iPad.
    Suggest you do not disconnnect iPad until computer say that the sync is completed.
    After that try to reset by press the Sleep and Home button until you see the Apple Logo.
    There is a possibility that there's a problem with your iPad screen.

    Hi, my ipad mini has suddenly stopped working and I cannot turn it off or connect it to the computer, can anyone help me on this??

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My ipad mini has many emails which say 'no content' and are not deletable.  What are they are how do I delete them?

    My ipad mini has many emails which say they have no content and I cannot delete them.  The emails do not show up on my MacBook Air.  What are they and how do I get rid of them? 

    Close the mail app and reset the iPad. Closing apps instructions are for iOS 7. If you're not running iOS 7, I assume that you know how to close apps in iOS 5 or 6. If you don't know how to close apps, just reset the iPad.
    To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

I have tried to change the res to the lowest it doesn't work what am i doing wrong please help!!

    You can't use a simple VGA to DVI adapter, since VGA doesn't have the digital video signals needed by Apple displays. You need a VGA to DVI converter, such as
