I dropped my ipad and the background is red?

I dropped my ipad and the bakgroud is red, still works but has this re ting to it? How do I get the background back to normal?

Some people have reported smacking the back of their iPads to correct the colors. I have no firsthand experience with this method.

Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears. If that does not work you need to take the iPad to an Apple store genius bar to have it evaluated by the technicians.

HT3302 I dropped my Ipad and the color is distorted. All other features are working just fine. How do I fix this?

I dropped my Ipad and it fell on its edge. All features work. However the color display is totally distorted. What can I do.

I just did this when I dropped my iPad only about 12 inches onto the floor. After consulting with Apple and being told I would need to replace my screen or get a replacement iPad both for $250, I decide I had nothing to lose by trying my idea. While the iPad was off, I gently but firmly tapped each side on a hard surface. I then turned it back on...and magic! All the correct colors were restored. I think that the drop must have loosened the metal back/sides or things shifted internally. We'll see if this is a permanent fix, but it seems to be fine!

I dropped my ipad and the screen turn dark blue everytime i push the home or the lock button

please help me

i did the same and the screen turned red and unstable. but after tapping on the back,carefully, a few times and turning off a many times, now overnight ALL is normal again! so, dokumenter not panic, but try a few soft tricks before repair shop visit! after all, APPLE makes good quality products!!!

These are user forums. You aren't speaking to Apple here. We don't make nor reschedule nor cancel appointments. Call where you made the appointment.

So my i just dropped my iPad and now it won't start up. It just keeps turning on and off. Like the apple symbol shows up and then goes away? What happened and is there a way to fix it. I tried restoring and that didn't work

I pretty much stated it in my question. I dropped my iPad and now it won't boot itself up. The apple symbol shows up, then the screen turns all black and weird looking with a strange green color at the bottom, and just turns off. It keeps doing this over and over. What happened and is there a way to fix it? I also tried connecting it to itunes and that doesn't seem to be working. It detects an ipad but can't seem to read anything else. It tells me to try and restore it but I can't. HELP!!!

Try this. It worked for a few users after a drop.
Turn the iPad over and give it a very HARD slap on the back. May take several slaps.

I have dropped my ipad and have cracked the screen. Now the ipad will no longer detect or connect to wifi signals. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated

I have dropped my ipad and shattered the screen badly. A new problem that has only come since the cracking of the screen is that the ipad will now no longer detect or connect to ipad signals. I have tried all the solutions i have found online but none worked.

It will cost approximately US$219 to US$299 depending on the model.
Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.
If you had purchased AppleCare+ when you bought the device, you would be entitled to up to two replacements over a 2 year period for $49 each.

I just dropped my iPad and two corners are "shattered." I know my warranty doesn't cover this, but is there any way to fix this? There are small glass pieces in the two corners, ready to fall off. Can the screen be fixed?

I just dropped my iPad and shattered two corners. I know my warranty does not cover this repair, but ...is it possible to repair the glass corners that look like they are ready to fall off? Thanks...

if youre the adventurous sort, you can try getting a replacement screen off ebay or another site and doing the repair yourself. i dont really recommend it, but its an option

TS3992 I recently dropped my ipad and had to get a new one. I backed up the first I pad and used the icloud to reload all my data on my new ipad. Now when I go to backup the new ipad it says I cannot because I don't have enough ICloud storage available.

I recently dropped my ipad and had to get a new one. I backed up the first I pad and used the icloud to reload all my data on my new ipad. Now when I go to backup the new ipad it says I cannot because I don't have enough ICloud storage available.

If you can't get the password correct, you CANNOT restore from that backup.
However, if you've been using your phone as recommended by Apple, there should be minimal data loss.
Your iTunes library is on your computer, so you can synch all your apps, music, movies, ringtones, etc, on to your new phone.
Similarly, contacts should be synched to Address Book, Outlook, or a cloud service for you to easily synch back to your new phone.
Pictures taken from your old phone and not synched to your computer are lost, but you would have been synching those photos to your computer frequently as recommended. Other photos that you synch TO your iPhone are still on your computer.
You won't be able to get text messages back.

My daughter dropped her ipad (on the carpet with a case)and the screen went blank. It will not turn off with force-off nor does the apple icon appear.

Ipad was dropped onto carpeting and the screen just went blank. It will not show turn off slide, nor will it display the apple icon. Pusing both home and on/off button together also does nothing. The screen barely displays any light when the home button is pushed. I am able to sync it but the screen is not displaying anything.

A few iPad users have been successful in "reviving" an iPad after a drop. Turn the iPad over and give it a HARD SLAP in the back. May take several slaps.

In iTunes, my printing is white and the background is black, How do I change it back to white printing on a black background.

In my iTunes store, the printing is white and the background is black and I have forgotten how to change it back to black printing on a white background? I know that it is a simple answer, but right now I cannot think of it.
Also, what is the "other" when you are syncing an ipad in itunes and in my case the other is more than half of my 64Gb. How do I find out what it is and then get rid of it if I want to?
Thanks

Hi gramie47,
Sorry to hear that didn't resolve the issue.
I checked online for issues printing from the Internet, found a couple of things you can try. Most likely it is a setting that needs to be changed in the browser settings, since the printer prints fine from the computer.
From Internet Explorer, go to File, Page setup, Remove check from "Printer background color and images" if checked, or vise versa, to see if that helps.
Here is another document you may take a look at.
Map Images May Not Print Properly When Using Internet Explorer.
If you continue to have issues, contact your Internet Provider for further assistance.
Thank You.
