Black and gray bars are scrolling across the iPad screen?

Yesterday my iPad started scrolling black and gray bars

Try a reset by holding the power and home keys down until the Apple logo appears. If that does not work, take it in for diagnosis.

While playing an online flash game, the system froze, and a barred pattern flashed across the entire screen.

I was forced to shut down the laptop using the power button. After starting up again, I was later playing the same game, and the system froze, The same barred pattern covered the screen, and this time the system emitted a loud beep, in patterns of 3, and continued to do so until i shut down the system with the power button.
Later, while running Windows 7 via boot camp, encountered a similar problem. The entire screen was covered in multicolored noise, and then crashed within a few seconds.
More on the barred pattern while in OS X:
The bars are multicolored vertical bars, spread across the screen in probably aproximately 50x10px rectangles, evenly spaced, probably 10px vertically, and 50px horizontally. This is not an exact description, but the best I can serve from memory. Will provide better description after reproducing error.
Given that a similar error occured in both OS X and Windows, I would assume this is a hardware issue.
Hardware as follows:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name:          MacBook Pro
Model Identifier:          MacBookPro8,1
Processor Name:          Intel Core i5

Number of Processors:          1
Total Number of Cores:          2

I don´t want to kill your hope - but Apple is still ignoring anything about hard-freeze.

Hi friends, I'm having troubles with my Ipad 2. I was working with it and suddenly the screen distorted. Now it is not possible to get it back to work properly. In fact, the screen is now black and nothing I have done makes the Ipad works again. Thanks

My MacBook Pro has been having difficulties at startup. It sometimes locks and doesn't get past the white screen. It has also locked up several times and gotten a green stripes across the entire screen. What is causing this and how do I fix it?

You don't, take it to Apple for repair.
This might interest you if it's too old to fix.

Dropped my iPhone 4s and now there are lines across the screen?! Help!

Hey everyone!
So, I have recently dropped my iPhone 4S and now there are all these blue vertical lines across the screen, which occasionally change colour also.
I am still able to receive messages and calls, and siri still works, it's simply that I can't see a single thing I am doing- which is very difficult!
I was wondering if this is an issue that needs to be fixed at an Apple store- and if so, how much it would cost? Or if I would be able to fix it myself somehow.
N.B: I've tried to reset it, it doesn't work. I have also tried to restore the iPhone, but iTunes won't let me do this as I have to have the 'find my iPhone' app turned off, which I cannot do because I can't see anything I'm doing!
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions,
Kirstoodles.

Yes. It's broken. A replacement will cost you $199.

The iPhone is not user servicable. Apple does not sell parts for the iPhone. any parts you could get are either stolen, counterfeit, or salvaged. Atempting to fix it yourself will render it unsupportable and forfeit your right to service from Apple, including an out of warranty replacement.

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore. Try them.

I seem to have fried my ipad--i went to itunes to update it and now it wont do anything? the ipad has a picture of a usb cable and it says to connect to itunes but when I do it does not show up as a device??

You'll want to completely restore the device using iTunes.

Keep in mind, at this point anything you had on the iPad you did not backup to iCloud or your computer is most likely lost.
It may be best to contact AppleCare by phone from 7am-10pm Central if you need more help on the matter.

Why is my iPod going black and then going to back to the home screen

Why does my iPod touch go blank in apps and go back to the home screen

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My macbook pro screen went black and won't display back to the normal screen. When I turn it on I can hear the computer starting up and the keyboard light turn on but the screen stays black. What can I do? Help please!

Please help! I can't get my screen to turn back on. It just stays black when I turn it on. Is there anything I can do to reboot it or am I just out of luck
Thanks!

Did you buy the Applecare extended warranty? If not then you will need to pay for whatever repairs need to be done.
You will need to take the system to an Apple store Genius Bar for a check up.

GE70-0ND Screen flashing black and gray

Hey,
I bought a MSI GE70-0ND laptop almost 1 year ago. I have not had any problems with it until now.
I run Windows 8 on it.
Today when I logged in on my laptop the screen just immediately went black. Now it is flashing black and gray. When I move the mouse you can see the cursor moving on the screen. The special buttons such as fan boost works.
I tried connecting my laptop to another screen with a HDMI cable. The other screen showed the same flashing screen..
My laptop forced me to upgrade and install something yesterday. I think it was a windows update but I to be honest, don't know. I suspect that that update is causing this..
Any help will be appreciated. If you want additional information that I failed to provide above, let me know!
Thanks,
msikiuru

What happens if you do a CTRL+ALT+DELETE? Can you see the screen just fine?
Taking a video and posting it to youtube might also be very helpful, as this is the first time I've ever heard of this issue.
Hi, thanks for answering.
The problem fixed itself after a while. I have no idea about why it did.
CTRL+ALT+DEL did absolutely nothing.

Give it to the school IT department to be fixed.

Just in the last few days when I go to Safari on my IPad 2 the status and search bars are black with white print. I want the silver and white color scheme back, can you help?

Turn off Private Browsing mode.
Touch the URL field and then touch "Private" at the upper left of the keyboard to turn off Private Browsing.

My screen opened, and with every click the page (letters/images) got bigger. I can not get it to return to normal image size. I have to use the slide bar to read across the page. What do i do to correct it back to normal size???

Hi jholzworth,
It sounds like you might have accidentally hit the zoom button. Try hitting ''CTRL + 0'' to return it to normal size. Just so you are aware, ''CTRL'' and ''+'' will zoom in and ''CTRL'' and ''-'' will zoom out.
Hopefully this helps!
