I am panicing! Screen suddenly darkened and I can't lighten it up!
I was just checking some settings, and my screen suddenly darkened and I can't brighten it up and did a hard restore, but nothing happend. Help me please!
It sounds like your ambient light sensor was compromised. Did you check the "auto brightness" off in the brightness setting? That may be the culprit.

I am having problems with safari. The screen is darkened and I can't use touch screen or tabe. But I can use the address bar and go to anouther website. Other then that I can see website but can't touch nothing, how do I fix
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Or if those do not work - quit Safari
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -
My ipod screen is cracked and i can't sync my ipod to itunes because it is locked with a password and i can't enter the password because the heat sensor is messed up on the ipod becasue of the screen and i don't want to restore it and lose everything. What can i do?!
All you can do is to restore and thus erase the iPod unless you can get a data recovery company to preserve the data.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

my iphone 5's screen blacks out every now and then. the phone is turned on but the screen is black and i can receive calls. what is wrong with my phone?
I have to believe this has something to do with iOS 7 issues. I have taken my screen blacked out 5s twice to the Genius Bar and the found a bunch of system apps had crashed. So if this is the case, is iOS7 the problem?

Does anyone know how to unfreeze a screen.
My mini Ipad is only 2 months old and it has frozen. The screen says that the ipad needs to be backed up on icloud but the touch screen has frozen and I can even shut it down. SuggestionsTry to reboot it. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple, about 20 seconds or so. It should reboot and work for you.

samer form rotherhamHi, samer.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
This sounds like you may have enabled the Zoom feature. Here are the steps on how to disable this feature.
iOS: Home screen icons are magnified or large

Since dowloading Lion on my iMAC, my screen jiggles around, and I can't click on anything until it settles down.
Same here. I can't find the way to reproduce this. Here are messages that I get in the console when freeze occurs:

My ipad2 (2 years old) will not turn on at all, with home key, or power on key, or both at same time. I just updated to 7.0.4 and there is a passcode, but my screen is blank and I can't turn it on.
Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created. -
How can I install the iMac Graphics Firmware Update 2.0, if the screen is white and I can't get to the Apple menu? My computer has 5 vertical purple lines against white screen at startup before the Apple logo appears and the spinning gear...then everything disappears and the screen hangs on the white screen. I have tried unplugging and removing all my peripherals and the COMMAND, OPTION, P & R set of keys and still nothing. I have tried COMMAND C to start up from cd and it only tells me to turn off the computer and turn it back on. I found information on Apple's Support pages regarding the iMac Graphics Firmware Update but I am unable to download and install if I can't get to the Apple menu. Can anyone help?
You may have hardware problem, I think a visit to your local Apple Store or AASP is in order.

My iPhone screen is enlarged and I can't change it back. I can't power the phone off or use it any way while it is like this.
Double tap with three fingers to switch off zoom, then go to Settings > General > Accessibility and disable Zoom.

My "Library" module suddenly disapeared and I can not access my images. How do I find my folders if there is no "library" button?
You've merely inadvertently hidden it.
Hiding/unhiding panels and modules is a little known feature of Lightroom which seems to put the fear of God into unsuspecting newbies who are not aware of the feature.
Right-click (CTRL Click on Mac) on the Module names and restore the check mark to Library. -
I have Iphone 5 and updated to IOS 8... I can not receive a call, the Screen become black and I can not answer the phone call
Hey there jjroca,
It sounds like you are unable to make or recieve phone calls because the screen goes black. I would start by quitting all the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
If that does not resolve the issue, I would use the troubleshooting in the following article, named:
iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

My screen is black and i can hear the sounds on my iphone 4s - what should i do.
my screen is black and i can hear the sounds on my iphone 4s - what should i do. i have tried to restart and i still doesnt work
I had the same issue with my 2008 iMac and Apple support walked me through the fix yesterday...
1. Shut the computer down by holding the power button for 10 seconds
2. Restart the computer and press shift at the same time until you see the progress bar start moving
3. Once you reach the point where your screen goes dark and you see the cursor, type the first letter of the username for your computer, then hit Enter, then type your password, then hit Enter.
4. After a moment, you should see the spinning beach ball
5. Your screen should then move on to something along the lines of "Completing OSX Installation" (I can't remember the exact wording). Let it finish. After that it should go to your normal desktop and the issue should be fixed. (If your screen goes pitch black during this process, hit the space bar. I thought it wasn't working, but the screen was just sleeping).
Apparently it's an issue with an automatic update that never quite got past the login screen.
Hope this helps! -
I have an ipod A1285, I have 2,858 songs on it. The screen went black and i can barely see it now. Can apple fix this for me? Or can i get my songs off this ipod and put on a new one?
Hey BlueEyedDude,
Thanks for the question. I’m sorry to hear about your iPod nano! If you believe you have isolated the issue completely to hardware, you can learn more about servicing your device at the following link:
Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
If you’d like to attempt some more troubleshooting tips, see this link:
iPod nano - 4th and 5th generation - Apple Support
https://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano/4th_5th_generation/
If you do decide to service your device, you’ll want to make sure all of the music and information is backed up. If you regularly sync your device with a computer, this music should be on the computer. If not, you can learn about what purchases you can transfer from the iPod to a computer:
