Apple screen turned black, but siri is working and i can get keyboard

Ipad screen turned black, can see Siri, and can get keyboard, but seems like display has changed...
How can I get back my display, when I can't see the screen. Help please

Try giving it a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. If you see the silver apple, let to and let it reboot. see if that helps

My iphone 4s screen went black, then siri stopped working, now the phone wont charge

My iphone 4s screen went black, but Siri was still working and then a little bit later Siri stopped working. I then let the battery go dead and have plugged it into my laptop and it is not responding. I tried holding the lock button and home button for 10-15 seconds but that did nothing. Any ideas on what the problem could be?

Hi
how old is the device as the battery may need replacing or if no help visit your local apple store or contact support
good luck

I have a problem with my iPhone 4s. Location Services is turned on, but off in applications and I can not change it. It's just marked in gray. What should I do?

Do as the screen shows - connect the iPhone to the computer you usually sync with and use
iTunes on that computer to restore the iPhone.

My iPhone 5 screen has gone black but Siri still works so it won't reset please help

A few minutes ago my iphone 5 went blank but Siri still works so it won't let me reset , any quick tips that I could use to bypass Siri in order to reboot would be appreciated

Try plugging it it to see if the screen comes on. If not then you're screen is damaged.

Screen turns black while I'm working

My screen turns black, almost like it's going to sleep right when I'm in the middle of typing, searching the web; basically doing anything active...
My screensaver and sleep settings are in the proper positions, so I don't think this should be happening...
hmmm....
any ideas?

Black screens are the curse of the iBooks. Search for "black screen" or screen flickering" to find many others with similar problems. There are a few possible causes, but the most common is probably the reed switch. This is the switch that puts your computer to sleep when you close the lid. Unfortunately, extremely delicate wires + a display hinge opening and closing all the time = crazy problems.
Signs you have a reed switch problem:
- your screen may flicker in brightness randomly.
- it goes black more often when the display angle or laptop is moved.
- after it goes black you can still faintly see the screen, or when you connect an external display it works fine.
- you can put the laptop to sleep and wake it to temporarily bring the display back to life.
To fix the reed switch problem:
- take it back to Apple if you're under warranty. If you can't get the problem to happen at the Genius Bar, tell them about the problems you've been having and insist that they fix it anyway. This is way too common a problem for them to blow you off easily.
- if you're not under warranty, you can pay Apple or some other Mac shop to fix it. I have no idea how much this costs, but probably at least a few hundred.
- if you're not under warranty and you're brave/poor enough that you want to fix it yourself it is possible (I just did it myself last week). While there's nothing about the repair that takes special knowledge, it is a very detailed and arduous process. There are dozens of screws and parts that need to be removed in a very specific sequence. It took me about 5 hours start to finish (though I also replaced the hard drive) and I ended up with a few "extra" pieces that didn't make it back in despite being very careful. On the plus side, the reed switch itself is only about $25 and is available from places like Smalldog.
If you do decide to fix it yourself, do youself a favor and download the guides from ifixit.com. If you google around, you can probably also find the actual Apple repair manual (which is even better), but ifixit.com has great screw guides to keep track of everything.
One last thing - I originally had the reed switch problem under warranty and Apple fixed it with no problem. Unfortunately, the reed switch problem came back in a couple of months - after the warranty expired. Just a word to the wise if you have this problem and you're considering whether to buy the extended AppleCare policy.

I dropped Iphone 4s then suddenly screen went black but phone is on. I can hear sound.

I can't log into my YouTube account and each time I try the screen turns black, says "connection not trusted" and doesn't allow me the option to add exception like it normally does when I recieve this message trying to log into a website.

I just got new ATT dsl internet service. Now, when I try and log into my YouTube account and numerous other websites, instead of logging me in, the screen turns black with a message displayed saying, "connection not trusted." On most sites, it will give me the option to either, "get me out of here" or "I understand the risks, allow exception." When I try logging into YouTube, the only option I have is; "get me out of here!"

IPod screen turned black but it still syncs

Hi,
starting from yesterday my ipod screen turned white at first and now is black. When I connect my ipod to my macbook, it still syncs and it looks like it's still in work. I tried to hold the sleep button and the center button together but it will just turn the ipod off. I don't know what to do.. is the lcd broken and i need to chnage into a new lcd? or my whole ipod is broken? My ipod is first generation, and used it for 4 years.. please help me..!

Try:
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. It could be the display or maybe its driver circuits.

My iphone 4s screen is black the sound is working and I know it is on because the back light will light up, but it is black. The reset button also will not work.

My iphone 4S has a black screen. The sounds still works and it will turn on a and off, but the screen is just black. I tried to reset it but the apple sign never shows.

Hey there PDWPDW,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’ve already done quite a bit of troubleshooting in an attempt to resolve the blank black screen issue with your iPhone 4S. Take a look at the articles linked below, the first will walk you through the process of restoring your device from recovery mode and the second provides some additional troubleshooting suggestions that you may not have tried already.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If you see a solid color screen (black, white or blue)
Plug in your device to a power source. If you see the low-battery screen when you plug in, let your device charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad) before using it.
Reset your device while it's plugged in.
If resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.

Help! Dropped phone, screen is black but phone still works...

I dropped my iPhone 4S today and the screen went black (thankfully it didn't shatter), but the phone still works perfectly fine. I can still touch it and everything; unfortunately I obviously can't see what I'm doing because it's black. Another problem is that my lock button has been broken/jammed for a while, so I can't try to reset it with holding the home button and lock button, which I've heard could work.
Is there something I can do myself? Or should I just bring it to an Apple store? Even then, can they fix it or is my phone done for good?

I dropped my iphone in toilet...screen is black but sound is working

I dropped my iphone in the toilet a week ago and immediately put it into rice. The screen went black as soon as I dried it off but, it kept vibrating until it ran out of battery. I left in rice until this morning when I put it on charge, it turned on but the screen is still black, I called it and the sound works. Any suggestions?

You can leave in in the dry rice for more weeks, however, once water gets in it is very difficult to remove and corrosion starts and continues.
Realistically, there is little chance that your iPhone will recover to a reliable state.

Screen is black, but phone still works

I was opening up an app and then the screen of my phone went dark. I let it be for about 30 minutes then went to go plug it into the charger to see if that would help. I then found out that Siri was still working and it would vibrate as soon as I put it in the charger. Someone please help me because I do not know what to do to fix this problem!!

Reset the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for up to 1 minute, releasing when the Apple logo appears.
