How do I fix a black screen

Hello!
My ipad has stopped working - I've tried resetting it and all sorts of stuff. Short of flushing it down the loo to see if that'll fix it - I was wondering if anyone has any other ideas that might help?

How do I fix a black screen on a MacBook Pro (less than a year old)?

My daughter was working on her MacBook Pro and the screen went blank. She has rebooted and tried holding Shift key when rebooting and also Command V. Neither did anything. The keyboard is responsive and the computer is sounding/acting like normal except she can't see anything. She does not have a way to hook up to TV to see if it is the screen.
Any suggestions? She is as college without a car and not sure when she can get to Apple store and laptop is required for school.

If the screen is black throughout the boot process, meaning no gray screen, no Apple logo, etc., it's likely a hardware problem. If she can't get to an Apple store, she can call and Apple will send a box for her to send it in to them. Of course, that lengthens the time it's out of her hands.

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

Since the upgrade, my screen orientation does not change based on the iPad's current position. It is often upside-down?
Anyone else have a similar issue? If no, how did you fix it?

I'm not sure what you are referring about.
Do you mean the orange Firefox menu button?
In current Firefox releases (29 and later) the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible whether the Menu Bar is visible or hidden.
You can no longer hide the Navigation Toolbar.
*There is a star like button next to the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.
*You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at near the top of the drop-down list.
*If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu as well as the tooltip of the star changes to "Edit This Bookmark".
*You can toggle the title bar on/off via the "Title Bar" button at the bottom left in the Customize palette window.
You can still have the Menu Bar visible via the right-click context menu of a toolbar to have menus like the File menu with Print (Ctrl+P) and Print Preview and the Bookmarks and History and Tools menus.
