    Plug it into the charger/wall socket and let it charge for at least an hour. It just might start charging. If you have already tried charging it for a fair amount of time and it didn't work, try restoring the device with iTunes.

  • I have an Iconia 8 w1-810. I put in my password and the screen goes blank

    I have an Iconia 8 W1-810. I can put in the pasword but then the screen goes blank. The password is correct,  it tells me if I put the wrong one in. If i then press the power button and get the log-in screen up, but it says it's locked and disappears again. I can use the camera and when a mesage from macafee came up I could  click onto the inyernet, but when I closed the tab down, the screen was still blank. Any ideas please?

    Try the steps in this article to see if you can get to the advanced options and possibly run a start up repair or refresh to see if that fixes the issue.

    Which particular .msi file does the message go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

  • I am using Windows 7 and the screen goes blank like like it went to sleep, what can I do?

    I had this same issue on my PC but resetting the Video Card driver, or user Login, etc did nto work.  I booted up in Safe Mode and then tried to look at Windows Event Log and found that it was not running.  I must have had a virus because it turns out that 95% of the Windows Services were DISABLED on my PC.  I ran a Full AV Scan and a Full Malware Scan, then I had to go through and manually start all of the needed Windows Services one by one.  I made good educated guesses as to which ones NEEDED to be running versus which ones I could get back to later.  Some of them still needed to be started again after I rebooted for certain functionality but at least I was able to do so in standard boot up.  Hopefully this helps. others since I was looking around online in a dozen different forums before I checked the Services on a hunch.

  • When I click on my Messages app I can see it for a brief moment and then the screen goes blank

    When I click on my Messages app I can see it for a brief moment and then the screen goes blank.  This happened to me last week and I Reset All Settings, which worked-but it has just happened again so that's not a long-term solution.

    Hello linslaf,
    It may help to force close the Messages app, then restart the device.

  • When I click on itunes store it displays it for a few seconds and then the screen goes blank?

    When I click on the itunes store the info appears for a couple of seconds and then the screen goes blank.  I never had this problem before any ideas?

    same thing with me have you found an answer? the only thing i cant think of is to download the new itues but when i try they are haveing problems with the site or something and i cant dowload it.

  • HT201263 None of these answers help my problem.  My ipad will not leave the Apple logo.  I hold both buttons and the screen goes black, then the apple logo immediately pops back up.  I can't do anything because the apple logo just keeps popping back on.

    I haven't been able to find any answers that solve my problem.  My Ipad will not leave the Apple logo.  I hold both buttons and the screen goes black and then the Apple logo immediately pops back up.  I can't get the red slider screen at all.  No matter how many times I hold down both buttons the screen goes black and then the Apple logo pops right back on.

    Before you do anything else, try charging via a wall outlet for a while, since its off. Then try turning it back on.
    When you put the device into recovery mode it allows you to restore the device when no other options work. You do risk losing everything currently strored on the ipad itself. Hopefully you've performed regular backups either via itunes, icloud or both. Evern if you have synced content to either of those, you may not lose everything. All previous purchases have been saved in the itunes and app stores, so you can dowload them again.
    while the ipad is off, press and hold the home button and plug the usb cord into the ipad. You should see a message pop up on the itunes window on your compoter screen that state it has discoverd an ipad in recovery mode.
    You should now be able to restore

    When i select the "Full Screen" option in video streams (like youtube, veoh, anything like that) i can do that one(1) time second(2nd) time the screen goes blank and can only exit it with the escape(Esc) button and then i have to restart firefox and again i have my one "Full-screen Ticket"

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

    when I sign in to hotmail, my emails appear then I have errors and the page goes blank. Any help ? I'm on OS X 10.5.8
    Sorry should have said, when I log in my emails pop up momentarily. Then, it seems as if the pages aren't loading. A message comes up on the bottom left that the pages are loading, then errors occur and nothing happens.
    Thanks
