Green fuzzy screen -  Any suggestions?

After updating to iOS 5.0.1 my ipad has been slow and sometimes unresponsive. It was operating very slow today and then the screen went to a green fuzzy screen. Now it's less green and has a pulsing redish box on the home screen. Any suggestions?

Try a system reset.  It's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • My daughter disconnected her iPod nano from the lead before ejecting the device.  It no longer syncs and we have re-set the device, but it now only occasionally appears on the computer screen any suggestions please?

    Restoring the iPod will do nothing to his iPhone.
    When you restore it wipes the iPod clean no matter what computer you use.
    The only plus to doing it form your home computer is if you have a backup stored there, then you can restore from the backup once it's done wiping.
    If you are away form your home computer, go ahead and use the computer you have to restore it, then when you get home, you can restore form any backup you may find. You can use this to help you do that when you get there: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766

  • I have just bought a brand new iMac plugged it in and nothing, black screen any suggestion, not a great start to my first mac experience

    I just bought a new iMac, plugged it in and nothing, black screen any suggestions and the apple support function is no help, real glad I bought the apple care plan and you can only use that if your machine turns on!

    If you bought the computer at an Apple Store return it. Let them know you aren't happy about your start in the Mac world. If you bought the computer online and have an Apple Store nearby you can take it there even though you didn't buy it there. Note: if going to an Apple store go online and make an appt with the Genius. Stores tend to be busy so this will give you a time to know you can walk in and pretty quickly get attention. Just walking in with a dead computer you may have to wait a while.
    No Apple store nearby? No problem, call AppleCare and they'll take care of you. Ask for expedited return & shipment and again, let the technician know you are new to the Apple world and not happy. The last time I brought home a dead computer I not only got a replacement right away but I got an Apple gift card for my inconvenience.

    Hello, Today I dropped my wife's iphone 5 ..cracked screen(:  any suggestions?

    Take it to an Apple store genius bar...some are now able to replace the screen in an iPhone 5 in-store.  If they are not able to do that, an out-of-warranty replacement will cost $269 in the US.

  • Issues: extremely slow start up, occasional green fuzzy screen, doesn't always hibernate and overheats

    First off, I should say that I'm not the type of person to shutdown my computer. If anything, I shut it to hiberate. I'm not sure if that's bad pratice or if that's what lead to this over time.. So here's what happens.. Today, I was working away and all of a sudden a fuzzy screen comes up with a little bit of green and then a beeping sound. So I shut it off. This is rare, sometimes the fuzzy screen comes up for a second randomly or when I open my computer from hiberate mode or when I'm just using the computer.
    When I turn my computer on,
    1. sometimes the 'on' button doesn't work and it takes a few tries (however this hasn't happened in the past few weeks. *knock on wood*)
    Once the computer is on the blue screen comes up:
    2. which stays on for anywhere from 5-20 minutes.
    3. Log in appears with the cursor blinking but I actually can't type anything.. It lags behind sometimes another 20 minutes before my password appears and I could log on.
    Checking the message board for similar questions it was recommended that I update the software.
    I've tried to get Mavericks on here but I get an error message when it tries to restart the computer and never does so successfully on its own.
    I've helped it along and was able to attempt at installing it but I waited a least an hour for it to 'find my disks' with no luck I went the disk utility repair route istead of time machine backup which couldn't find my external or anything for that matter.
    The error message I got back was:
    invalid block count It should be 21066078 instead of 21066076. Found corrupt needs to be repaired.
    Any thoughts or advice would be helpful. Thanks in advance. Below is my EtreCheck.

    Simska,
    regarding the overheating, you can try resetting your MacBook Pro’s System Management Controller.
    Regarding the invalid block count, you should boot from your grey Mac OS X Install DVD which originally came in the box with your MacBook Pro, run Disk Utility from it (via the Utilities menu in the menu bar), and select Repair Disk for your internal disk.
    After your disk is repaired, exit Disk Utility and restart from your internal disk. When you log in, you should uninstall your installed version of iPhoto Photocast — it was written to work with the Lion (Mac OS X 10.7) SDK, but you have Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6.8) installed, so it’s not supported under Snow Leopard. Install in its place an older version of iPhoto Photocast which is compatible with Snow Leopard. You also have an outdated version of Silverlight installed — you can download the most recent version from here.

  • Somehow i turned off the sound on the green midi loops.any suggestions?

    been using Logic a lot and now when i play MIDI green loops there is no sound...i have check the track is not muted in any way and there are difinitely notes there. Also when i use the MIDI keyboard by pressing caps lock there is no sound there too.Sure it's something simple...checked in system preferences/sound and everything apppears fine.I know it is not my speakers as i can hear music and the clicks on volume, plus also audio regions.Any suggestions folks? :-)

    Master volume setting?
    Wave-out volume setting?
    Correct output hardware selected? I looked in the Java API docs and found the package for
    javax.sound.midi . Which one of the below classes
    might have those parameters so I can check them ?

  • Flex 14 green fuzzy screen

    I purchased this laptop in August. I have only had it a few months and half my screen has began to flicker green fuzziness. My computer is still under warranty. What should I do?

    Hi cjohnson88,
    Looking at the screen shot I may have to agree with yigit though. This does look like more a hardware failure. But however before finalize into that conclusion, i was wondering that fuzziness of the screen happens are you still able to move your pointers around or open applications or does your system freezes and put it to a halt until you have to attempt a hard reset ?
    Reason I ask is that based from screen shot it looks as if only the area in the browser or window is affected, so I assuming that this could be software but just wanted to make sure.
    Do let me know.
    Regards

  • HT4623 I updated my iPhone 4 without having my Internet service to connect to iTunes now my phone is locked showing a plug and an iTunes icon on my screen any suggestions?

    I updated my iPhone 4 without having. Access to my internet service to log in to my iTunes account. So my phone is locked and shows a plug and iTunes. Any suggestions?

    Welcome to recovery mode connect to iTunes then run the restore

  • MacBook Air does not finish start up and has a white screen, any suggestions?

    It seems like the start up disk is full, but I can only restart or shut down

    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion's Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

  • I have Axiotron Modbook that won't boot upon powering, stays black/blue glitch like screen;( any suggestions?

    I own multiple tablets but my most recent one the Axiotron Modbook has been frozen on a glitches screen for the last couple days.
    I have tried removing power source, fully charging.
    Being where as there is no external keyboard and it is a stylus/pen oriented tablet I have no other ideas or solutions after combing the web and varies forums for days.
    If anyone has any advice or suggestions I would be grateful. Avoiding a tech repair for who knows how much would joyfully avoided.
    Than!

    Thanx Dave and Kappy I have tried these suggestions first. Tech support has not gotten back to me and forum discuss is as confused as I am;( because it is a Mac supported portable I'm exhausting all related avenues in hopes of a resolution. I have encountered a couple other Modbook owners with similar issue and although they were able to use external monitor (which defeats purpose of tablet) and or even get RAM, screen, etc. Repairs still the problem existed.
    Only hope was a tidbit that maybe it was the lower Apple lower-half and not the Axiotrons upper functions.
    Unfortunately this is one a few items not functioning properly right now so eventually soon with luck I will be able to afford repairs and pray they are successful;p
    Thanx again fellas;)

  • IMac early 2008 screen not working properly, lots of lines on screen, re appearing and disappearing at random(normally slowly), computer fine on external screen, any suggestions?

    This seemed to happen very suddenly; I left my iMac running while i went out and came in to find that the screen was totally unusable, as you will be able to see from the picture it has a lot of lines that seem to come and go a random and sometimes it goes black all together. What do you think is wrong with it? Logic board? Graphics card? Screen itself?.. also if it is the graphics card, is it separate to the logic board or do both need to be replaced?
    Also some additional info:
    iMac Early 2008
    2.4ghz
    4gb Ram
    OSX 10.9.2
    ATI Radion HD 2400
    Actual computer working on external monitor, just not internal
    Thanks

    Costs vary by area, I think you may find out though that spending money on a 6+ year computer may not be worth it, you can buy an Apple Refurbished Mac with much more up-to-date specifications and save hundreds of $s. If this is of interest you can only find them on Apple's on-line store, in the US the current link is:
    http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals
    Then click the link to the iMacs. If you don't find one you want, continue looking the inventories change frequently, sometimes by the hour.

  • I'm experiencing extremely slow response when attempting to open the control center from the lock screen, any suggestions?

    When trying to access the control center from the lock screen, it takes anywhere from 2 to MANY swipes to get a response.  Never opens on the first try.

    I'm not having the same problem, but there is a feature in the OS that attempts to discern from swipes to unlock and swipes to open control center. This is what you may be experiencing.
