All of a sudden my screen doesn't respond anymore? i-pad 2.

I turned on my i-pad 2 and now the screen doesn't respond anymore. I got the slider to unlock it, to move once, but that was it? Help?
Thanx in advance
Tim

Did you drop the iPad?
Yes, a wireless keyboard will work with the iPad, but you'll need the iPad to work so you can set it up.
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.

  • I recently updated my new iphone 4 from ios6 to ios7. All of a sudden, my screen crashed and is now in a flashing white state with lines. I've reset the settings multiple times and the flickering has not disappeared. Please help

    I recently updated my new iphone 4 from ios6 to the current ios7. It has been in use for a few days now and all of a sudden the screen crashed to a white display with lines. I have reset it a couple times but there has been no improvement in reducing the screen flicker. Please help

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the Steps in this article to force the device into Recovery Mode.
    From Here
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
    Note on Recovery Mode.
    You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...

  • All of a sudden the screen on my iMac 10,1 is too small for the image. Can't figure out how to reduce the size of the Finder or any of the Apps.

    All of a sudden the screen is too small for the image. Hard to explain, but in order to see the entire Finder window, I must scroll the image up/down, left/right.
    It's not just the Finder though, all of the apps are affected this way too.
    It's probably got something to do with the fact that I have an HDMI cable running from the Mac to a Vizio 42" TV. It's been running this way just fine for over two months though.
    Any ideas?

    You probably accidently zoomed the screen.  Hold down CNTL while scrolling down with the mouse or trackpad to unzoom.  Cntl - scroll up to zoom.

    - Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try here:

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    That is very strange! Have you been able to get your apps icons back now? Have you attempted a soft reset by holding the power button and home button at the same time until the phone restarts? Keep me posted with the results!

  • TS3274 All of a sudden my screen is not rotating. Did I accidentally  hit something I shouldn't have?

    Look and see if there is a lock icon in the upper right corner of the iPad screen. If the icon is there, that indicates that you locked the screen orientation.
    There are wo ways to unlock the screen - depending on how you have the settings configured on your iPad.
    Check the side switch above the volume rocker on the side of the IPad. Flip the switch. If the lock icon goes away, the screen is unlocked and you had the iPad set to use the side switch for screen orientation.
    The other place to look is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and swipe to the right at the bottom of the screen. Look all the way to the left. If there is a lock icon there, tap that to unlock the screen. Then tap the screen above the task bar to get back to the home screen.
    IF ... There was no lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen, reboot the iPad and see if that unlocks the orientation.
    Reboot 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.
    The article that Alan referenced above, explains how to use the side switch as the screen lock - or the way to mute system sounds. It is well worth a look.

    I think you have an Accessibility feature turned on. Triple click the Home button and then try to go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn all Accessibility features off. To scroll you may have to use three fingers. If proem see:

  • Portion of screen doesn't respond to touch

    I got my iPod Touch a few months ago and just today I found that about the top inch (almost half) of the screen doesn't respond to touch.
    I can't access 'calendar, notes, etc...', nor can i scroll through my songs from the top half or hit the 'back' button.
    I tried restarting it, but that didn't work. I don't know if I want to try restoring it because I don't have a backup of all my songs on my computer, and I searched on the internet, and the only PC to iPod program compatible with the iPod Touch is $20.
    I purchased the iPod Touch from Amazon.com, so I'm not sure if I will be able to bring it to the Apple Store.
    I am not sure what I should do. :/
    Any help is very much appreciated!

    https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do
    Go to that website. that's where you can check if the ipod is covered under apple's limited year warrenty. Just type in the your Serial Number and the country where you live and it'll will tell you if it's still covered under the warrenty. And if it is, you can go to the apple store and complain about the problem. They might even give you a new one. hope that helped.

  • Screen doesn't respond

    The screen doesn't respond. I can't slide the bar to unlock it. I can't slide to power off. I've rebooted but the problem persists.
    Any suggestions?

    I had somewhat of the same problem with my screen frezzing up on me where i was not allowed to do anything. all i did was leave the phone on until the battery drains out then reconnect the phone to ac outlet to recharge the battery. about 2 hours into the recharge i held both the sleep button and the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds and the phone reset it self and i did not lose any of my settings or data, hope this helps you.

  • My Iphone 5 touch screen doesn't respond to touch

    Although I can hard reset, my iPhone 5 suddenly stopped responding to touch. Calls come in and texts, but I can't answer or open the phone since the screen doesn't respond to any touch. I am unable to get to AT&T or Apple right now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

  • IPhone 6 screen doesn't respond 80% of the time

    iPhone 6 screen doesn't respond 80% of the time.  And then it will get a mind of it's own and dial people on my favorites and open apps randomly.

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next thing to try:

  • IDVD '08 doesn't respond anymore when trying to browse the media files

    I created a new project, selected a theme and then clicked "Media" to drop the Media files into my DVD project. For some reason, after that, iDVD doesn't respond anymore. I see no disk activity (with iostat) and I see iDVD consuming a lot of CPU cycles (with top) .
    Any idea why this might be happening? It is getting a bit frustrating.

    tell us about the content you are trying to use within iDvd'08.
    Might you have any Non-standard QT plugins on your mac (ie, Perian or Divx)?
    also tell us how much available hard drive space is remaining on the boot volume / your main HD.
    Take a look in your console log /crash reports and post the info on this forum.
