HELP! My ipad screen is showing some kind of "snowy-white noise TV effect" it looks kind of "grainy". This happened when i was reading a pdf an zooming in for a better view, now this "snowy, grainy" screen is also showing up in the home screen...This ipad is new, about 2 weeks with no drops or accidents whatsoever... I'm thinking of replacing it... responses greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
but it is possible youhave a hardware defect and will need to return it.

  • My ipad screen is showing a itunes logo with a charger indicator???

    my ipad screen is showing itunes with a charger pointing??

    You need to have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer. Then connect your iPad to your computer and start iTunes. From there you should get on screen instructions. If you're not sure see the getting started link in a previous post.

    When i plugged my ipod into the computer it started to make buzzing and screeching noises. It became hot so i removed it and then the screen froze while it continued to make these noises. I have never had anything like this happen. (never gotten it wet or had it exposed to extreme temperatures) It is also unresponsive to any buttons on the ipod and it didn't show up when i plugged it into my computer. What do I do? Also if it is unfixable could i get a free one from apple?

  • Home Screen Not Showing Some Apps

    I reset my home screen to show all apps in alphabetical order. I when to the end and saw some apps were missing. I searched them in spotlight search and they showed up. I have 10 home screens and some 135 apps. Is this happening because I have too many apps? How do I fix this?

    Arrange the apps into appropriate folders so you can more easily find them. See:
    Syncing and arranging apps from the App Store
    It may be easier to arrange them in your iTunes library when the iPod is connected to the computer.

  • F4 help on variable screen only shows text or key...not both

    In some queries, the F4 help will only show text oy key but not both. For example, the F4 help on 0employee only gives a list of personnel numbers. The search in the dialog box only works for the pernrs and we can't search for names.This is happening in some infoset queries and queries that are on multi-providers.
    Is this something to do with read mode? Settings in the multi/infoset?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi all,
    I still have the same problem with NW7.0 SPS15. Does anyone have a solution for this? Changing the Provider specific properties in the InfoCube or MultiProvider did not help for the web variable dialog.

  • The iPad screen only shows an apple every 3 seconds. what is wrong?

    Screen shows apple every three seconds.I cannot turn it off. the iPad2 is recognized by itunes when connected to computer. Will not start up or shut down.

    If it keeps showing the Apple Logo every few seconds, then it is continuously trying to reload the iOS, but somehting is making it restart.  Normally, a failure should make the iPad boot into recovery mode automatically, but you may have a hardware issue that needs service.
    Try this before getting service:
    1) Plug the iPad into the computer and open iTunes.
    2) Hold the Power Button and Home button simultaneously for 10 seconds, then release the Power button but continue holding the Home button for 20 more seconds or until the iTunes symbol shows on the iPad's screen.
    3) Restore the iPad using iTunes on the computer.
    If you do not get the iTunes symbol on the iPad and continue to see the Apple Logo over and over even while trying these steps, your iPad will need service to get it fixed.

  • Ipad screen is showing lines

    Hi. I was charging my ipad 2. When i unplugged it and opened the cover, all is now see is a blank screen with lines scrolling. doesn't look good. What happened?

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.
    Note: Data will not be affected.

  • HT201406 I purchased a new iPad 3. When viewing Facebook photos a white ring in the center of the photo appears randomly. I can move photo around with finger and one ring stays in center of screen even on blank part of screen. Help.

    Has anyone experienced a white ring ( like a Cheerios or life saver candy shape)  frozen in center of screen when viewing Facebook photos? You ca move the picture around with your finger, even minimize it and the ring is in the center of the screen. It is random not on all photos as you swipe through them. Could be on any profile photos. When you click done and go back into photos it disappears on the photo or photos that had it previous , but may sow up again on other photos . Again it's a perfect shaped white ring in center of screen. Only on Facebook.

    Not familiar with that but it is worth trying a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

  • I have set up 4 email accounts. Two are gmail and they show only old messages in sent folder - even when messages have been sent from this ipad.

    I tried deleting and re-entering the accounts, but problem with sent folder still occurs

    I found this in another discussion in the box on the right >>>>> More like this.
    Substitute whatever your email account's name is where it states Comcast and see if this helps. The settings would be the same on an IPad as on an iPhone.
    Go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>and select the Comcast account. From there look at the Outgoing Mail Server. It shoudl list the Comcast SMTP server. Touch that button and it will take you to another settings page for SMTP. It will show you the Primary SMTP server along with other SMTP servers. If the gmail server is listed there, then you can touch on it and turn it off. That should take care of it. The iPhone will try and use the SMTP server you have listed for a particular mail account, however, if that server is unavailable, it will take the next one on the SMTP list until it gets to one it can use.

  • How do I troubleshoot an ipad screen that goes black or displays crazy white lines?

    My Ipad has recently gone dark. when I reset it using the power/home thing it sometimes displays white lines that appear to be crossing he screen really really fast.  I cant get my ipad working.....

    IT looks like that is not a software issue but more on the hardware. are you covered by limited warranty or apple care? If you are you can bring it to the apple store for repair. Else you might be paying for an out of warranty repair. However, diagnosis is free so you can still go there for a free diagnostic test. It might be a display/ screen issue

  • HT4436 My ipad is locked with a warning message I cannot close.  It says Not Enough Storage. This Ipad cannot be backed up because there is not enough ICloud  storage available.  You can manage your storage in Settings.  Below this is Close and Settings.

    I am trying to set up an IPad with an Apple account already in use but it will not let me do so. What do I ned to do so i can have Apple ID on Ipad and other items?

    Hi,
    Yes you can contact Apple UK at daytime, for free, in the Chat.
    Just go to the iPad page, then press buy now in the upper right corner, and then in the upper right corner you will see the phone number, and next to it,(only at daytime) you will see a button, writing something like contact else, I don't really know what is the exact label, but it works.
    Good luck
