Dropped my iPad2, didn't break but screen is now unresponsive to touch.  help?

need help

If it's been like that for a quite a while then try a soft-reset and see if that gets it to boot up properly : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should reappear and it will hopefully boot up.
If not then try recovery mode and restore to your backup : If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • 5S screen is occasionally unresponsive to touch, and interaction is sluggish. All since updating to iOS 8.

    Ever since I updated to iOS 8, and all subsequent updates (currently running iOS 8.1.1) my iPhone 5S is considerably slower. Apps hesitate when I switch between them and sometimes crash entirely. Sometimes my screen is entirely unresponsive to touch and I have to tap numerous times before it works. I have restarted, i've done resets, I've backed up to the cloud, erased phone and restored from back up. The problems still persist.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    FYI. I've chatted with Apple support online. They suggested I backup and restore using iTunes, which I've done already. SO to humor the tech, I did it again. If it doesn't work this time, then I need to bring it into an Apple store to be diagnosed and possible repair/replacement.
    Hope this helps any readers with a similar problem

  • I can't turn on Mail in Settings.  Earlier i tried to e-mail a document from the GoodReader app through my Gmail account.  Apparently, my iPad2 didn't like that.  Also, now when i click on Mail on the Home screen, the Mail screen shows no mailboxes.

    iPad2.  I tried to e-mail a document from the GoodReader app.  It froze.  Now, when i tap the Mail button on the Home screen, it goes to a blank mail page, with no mailboxes, whereas before it went straight to my Gmail account.  I went in to the Settings section, tapped on Mail, Contacts, and then on Gmail.  The Mail button is grayed to Off, and when i press it to turn it On, all i get is a message that says Turning on Mail, but nothing happens.  Suggestions?

    Start off by trying to reset the ipad. Press and hold the power and home buttons at the same time until the device powers down and you see the Apple logo.

  • I have dropped my ipad and have cracked the screen. Now the ipad will no longer detect or connect to wifi signals. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated

    I have dropped my ipad and shattered the screen badly. A new problem that has only come since the cracking of the screen is that the ipad will now no longer detect or connect to ipad signals. I have tried all the solutions i have found online but none worked.

    It will cost approximately US$219 to US$299 depending on the model.
    Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.
    If you had purchased AppleCare+ when you bought the device, you would be entitled to up to two replacements over a 2 year period for $49 each.

    Hi tek360,
    Thank you for the detailed description. I understand that there are two issues: one, the Java extension, Java Development Toolkit 7.0.670.1 10.67.2.1does not give the option to Always Activate and two, the addon Trend Micro NSC Firefox Extension 6.5.0.1234 is disabled and does not show the Java pop up in result creating a security concern.
    Unfortunately Java can be used to control your computer, it's considered vulnerable to hackers and other things. As for the other addon, there are other security precautions that can be taken. Currently the same feature is built into Firefox. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/pop-blocker-settings-exceptions-troubleshooting]
    The Java toolkit is meant to advise the best version of Java, however [http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp] that will help verify the correct version.

  • I recently uploaded some pics and videos from an ipad and a camera. I put them all on Iphoto and backed them up in my personal folder. I then trimmed one of the videos and dragged and dropped that into the master folder(pictures). Its now gone!! HELP!?!?!

    I rencently added all my photo's from my Ipad and Camera. There were photos and videos on both. The import was done through Iphoto and then transfered to my backup in my pictures folder. I then took one of my videos and trimmed it and then addded that trimmed version to my back up(pictures)albumn. It asked If i wanted to replace existing photo or cancel and I hit replace. Now the file plays great on Iphoto but I am unable to share it through any form(facebook, Imessage etc) and in my back up(pictures) it says the file in only 87kb. I dragged and dropped it from Iphoto to the desk top along with another important video, when I hit get info on both of them one of them is a full sized video(50mb or whatever) and the other one(the one I am trying to recover) is only the 87kb. I want this full file avaiable to me how can I get it back?? it is already deleted off the camera??? please please help me.

    Garret,
    is your movie in your backup folder a Quicktime movie? Then probably only have the Quicktime wrapper in your backup folder, but not the referenced media in the file fork of the movie. If you see the full quality movie in iPhoto in QuickTime player, don't drag it from the browser to the Desktop, but use "File > Reveal in Finder > Original File" to show the movie in your iPhoto Library. Select the Movie when it is revealed and ctrl-click it to open it in Quicktime Player.
    Export it from Quicktime Player with "Export to" and share it to iTunes. This way it will be converted to a .mp4 movie that embeds the missing resources.
    You can drag the converted movie from iTunes to the Desktop or share it using to Media Browser to other applications.
    Regards
    Léonie

    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 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.

  • I dropped my mac book pro and the screen now has black and coloured lines in the corner. what is it and how can i fix it?

    I dropped my mac book pro and the screen has now got a black rectangle and pink and green lines down it. What is it and how do i fix it?

    Sounds like the display got damaged. Connect an external display and see if that's OK. If that's OK then the display is probably damaged. You can try reseating the LVDS connector but if that doesn't help the connections on the display body are very difficult to get to. Apple would just replace the entire display and that's what I would do as well.

    You need to get your phone repaired.   It's obviously damaged, and nothing we can suggest to you will fix that.
