I can get thumbnail photos but when I tap them the screen goes blank

Brand new iphone4 - photos taken appear as thumbnails and when tapped to enlarge are shown OK. But after the phone is powered down and restarted the thumbnails appear but when tapped do not appear. Help please.

    When I click on my Messages app I can see it for a brief moment and then the screen goes blank.  This happened to me last week and I Reset All Settings, which worked-but it has just happened again so that's not a long-term solution.

  • My iPad mini shows 10 updates in the App Store-on the updates icon, but when I click it-the screen is blank. Help!!

    My iPad mini shows 10 updates in the App Store-on the updates icon, but when I click it-the screen is blank. Help!!

    It's a long running glitch, as the hundreds of threads on this topic demonstrate.
    You  can wait it out and wait for Apple to fix the servers or you can go  into your purchased tab and manually download each update (you'll find  the app icons with little update banners on them.
    Alternatively,  if you sync with a computer, you can use the iTunes on your computer to  download the updates then sync them onto your device.

  • Is there anyway I can get my photos from my iPhone 5 if the screen is broken? the DCIM folder just shows up as empty?

    Is there anyway of transfering photos from my iPhone to my PC, Siri works its only the actual screen that doesn't work but as there is a password on my account I cant unlock it so the DCIM folder shows up as empty.
    Thanks all!

    No. Not without getting the display replaced first. Many Apple Stores in the US and UK can replace the display on the iPhone 5 or 5c (but not the 5s currently) for $149. Make an appointment at the genius bar.

  • HT204266 App Store on ipad indicates that apps updates are available, but when I select updates the screen stays blank. Is there a fix for this bug or am I stuck reloading iOS again?

    I just had my iPad 3  replaced. It is running iOS 6.1.3 and I am not able to update my apps.

    I think there's a problem with the update server.
    There are many similar cases on this discussion.

    When i select the "Full Screen" option in video streams (like youtube, veoh, anything like that) i can do that one(1) time second(2nd) time the screen goes blank and can only exit it with the escape(Esc) button and then i have to restart firefox and again i have my one "Full-screen Ticket"

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

    Try:

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    :[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

  • When I click on video it is stuck on one tv show, when I click 'done' the screen goes black so I can't access any other video that I downloaded from iTunes onto my iPad 2. How do I troubleshoot?

    The video on my iPad 2 is frozen on a tv show, although it will play the tv show until the end. At the end, when I click 'done' the screen goes black so I can't see the other movies that I've downloaded. I've shut down a few times but it reverts to the same thing. How can I re-set the video feature or do what is necessary to get it working again?

    Hi, raneth's boyfriend!
    Unfortunately, iTunes was told to restore all data from an old backup onto the new phone, and that cannot be undone.
    However, prior to this, iTunes 10 would have also asked to make a backup of the phone before doing the restore.  If the user elects to say "yes" to perform the backup, then iTunes would have backed up the phone before erasing it.
    Hopefully, that backup will still be available in iTunes, and if so, it would be backed up under the new phone's name prior to it being erased and restored (if the name of the new phone is different to the name of the old phone).
    To check if iTunes has a backup of the phone prior to the restore, look in the Devices category in iTunes Preferences.  All backups made are timestamped and are identified with the iPhone's name at the time of the backup.  Look for:
    • a backup of the phone using the new phone's name prior to the erase and restore, or
    • a backup with the same date and time as that when the phone was erased and restored (not the date and time AFTER when the phone was erased and restored!).  This may be the case if the new and old phones have the same name.
    If a backup is available, you can erase and restore again using that backup. The phone will be restored with what would hopefully be the original image of the new phone.
    If no backup was made prior to erasing and restoring the phone initially, then there is no way to
    undo it, meaning your phone's original data has been lost.

  • I receive and e-mail with attachments but when I forward them, the attachments are smaller. how to fix this?

    I receive e-mails with attachments, but when I forward them the attachments are reduced in size.  What do I need to do to have them forwarded the same size as I received them?

    If the attachments are photos, when you forward them, look on the bottom right of your compose window, change to "actual size".  It's probably set to small as displayed here:
