I get green lines all over screen on iPad 2

I don't know how to fix it, it just happened a couple of days ago.

1. Try a reset. Press and hold the power button and the home button together until you see an apple logo.
2. Try resetting all settings. On the ipad, go to settings > general > reset > reset all settings.
3. Restore the ipad. Open itunes in the computer and connect the ipad. Your ipad name will be listed to the left side of the itunes, below "devices". Click on the ipad name, and now to the middle of the screen, you will find the restore button. After the restore is complete, select the option "restore from backup"
4. Restore it again and this time, select the option "set up as a new ipad".
If none of the above works, unfortunately, the ipad needs to be repaired/replaced. You can either take it to an apple store nearby or call Apple care to set up the replacement.
Hope this helps.

Multiple different colored vertical lines all over screen?

I have quite a few different color vertical lines across my screen. They are yellow, purple, blue, green etc. It started with just one or two and now there is probably close to 75, some tightly grouped and others here and there. Can anyone tell me what it is? Is my video card going out or something? Is there anything I can do to stop it?
Thanks

Hi all
I have a single red vertical line down the very left edge of the screen of my 2006 17" MacBook Pro. It has appeared over the last day or so and is there most of the time, although it occasionally disappears for a short while.
Do you think this could be a similar issue?
Thanks very much.

Rented movies have floating green square spots all over screen

We have a new Sony KDL-52W4100 connected to our v1 Apple TV via HDMI at 1080p. Cable images std and HD look great, DVD and Blueray look great, all functions of Apple TV (photos, intro, menus) look great. Rented TV shows and movies have large floating green squares all over screen. Has anyone else experienced this?

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
This sounds like the file is either corrupt or there is an issue with output from the tv. Firstly, I wasn't aware that tv v 1 software supported 1080p, I suspect you are either running v 2 software or you don't have 1080p as an output resolution.
I doubt all your rented movies have become corrupt so I'd be looking at your HDMI connection as the source of your problem, have you tried another cable, is it seated properly. You should also be aware that 1080p requirers a category 2 HDMI cable (although in many cases category 1 does suffice)

I have a first generation iPad and the screen went completely green on me and locked up. I was able to unlock it, but now there's a green haze all over the screen. Anyone know what the issue could be and how I can get it fixed?

Try this - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

I updated my iMac to 10.7.3 and about an hour later the screen began to flicker with a gray line on the upper side, and it also flicker green and red small pixel lines all over the screen, mainly green.

I updated my iMac to 10.7.3 and about an hour later the screen began to flicker with a gray line on the upper side, and it also flicker green and red small pixel lines all over the screen, mainly green. The computer froze with these pixels, so I shut it off and restarted it, and there were this green lines everywere. So I turned it off, and the next day I turned it on and it began to work just fine, but suddenly the same thing happened again, and when I restart the computer again there are these green and some red pixels everywere.
I've read 10.7.3 is giving people many problems, but I never saw that it gave one like this. How can I fix this, or what will Apple do to fix this problem they caused me with their update.
Thanks

Contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine.

My ipod has lines all over the screen and would there be any way to get that fixed?

My I pod touch has lines all over the screen and I was wondering if there would be any way to get that fixed?

Try the standard fixes to rule out a hardware problem:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If stil problem you very likely have a hardware problem.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
A third-party place may be less expensive. Here is one.

Are the lines like psychedelic herringbone? If yes, I had that happen once, it was something serious, like the
Logic board. The good news is that it was fixed without any loss of data on the hard drive. Take it in to have Apple look at it ASAP. I took it to TekServe at the time, they are very nice about preserving your data and user library when possible.
Good luck and don't panic.

Horizontal Lines all over Ipod Touch Screen

Hi,
There are white and multicolored lines all over the Ipod touch display. The device still responds to touch, however.
Does anyone know what could cause this to happen?
I didn't do anything to it. It's been working perfectly. I was using it and the battery was about to die so I put it aside. A few minutes later I tried to wake it again and this is what it looked like:

Have you had any luck at the Apple Store?
I took mine and they said there was nothing they could do. They suspected something had randomly gone wrong with the hardware, but as it was not under warranty they wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
They gave me the option of replacing it for something like $160 or getting 10% a new iPod Touch. I'm not really sure what I'm going to do.

All my puchased TV Shows Play with small green dots all over the screen!!

Hi Everyone,
After installing the latest version on Itunes from System Update all my videos play covered with little green dots... Whats up with that??? Also I usually down load two epesodes of LOST before watching because one just isn't enough. Well aside from having little green dots all over the screen one of my Lost episode wont play at all... "Par Avion". It shows up in my Lost folder under TV SHows but it doesn't show up in my Purchased items. When I click on it it wont open either... However the lastest LOST, "The Man From Tallahassee" shows up and will play?? Itunes Store says I have all my down loads but I have not seen and can not open episode "Par Avion"..... Damm So this is a two part problem. Little green dots and the episode that wont open... HELP!@!!!

only way I found to fix it it is selecting each episode 1 at a time in order and syncing after each one.
Season 1 episode 1
sync
Season 1 episode 2
sync
etc.
what a pain
Edit. Actually seams to work if you select each individual episode in the order you want sync'd and then sync.
Syncing a whole season still results in a jumble

My macbook pro keeps flashing green lines across the screen then freezing, can anyone help?

Back in December my macbook started doing this thing quite regularly where it would flash black or green lines all across the screen, for maybe half a second, then the screen would freeze, so I would power it down manually then back on again. I took it into a store and paid a lot of money for them to "fix" it, but when I got it back it was still doing it. I just recently took it in to a different store and the guy said he couldn't reproduce the problem, but replaced the RAM and gave it back to me. Within a day of having it back the same thing happened, twice. At this point I'm not sure what to do, the money I spent on "fixing" it could almost have bought me a new one. The most recent time I shut it off, when it was turning back on it stopped on the grey screen with the apple and started making a continuous beeping sound, which I took a video of. Does anybody know why any of this is happening??

Hi Were you using the apple store for the repairs you had done? As to the point of taking in to a store to have it repaired and getting it back with the same problem. It should have been taken back to the same store as they have to stand behind what they do. You do not say what they repaired. The store replacing ram without knowing what the problem is ,is questionable. If you are going to change ram for the original apple installed ram, you need to make sure it is compatible with your MBP. One of the best sources for this is Macsales.com. As to the Beeping sounds here is a link on it. You do not say if this is one continuing beep or more than one repeating itself.http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202768

Why do I have green lines across the screen

This morning hubby turned on iPad and it has green lines through the screen. It is also circling the apps. Could this be a pixel problem.

There is no need to bang or drop the iPad!! Read this solution. Read the whole thing.
If your iPad is still under warranty, I have heard that Apple will simply exchange it for you. That is not necessarily an ideal option, as many people do not want to have to bother with transfering all of their files to a brand new device.
My problem, however, was that my iPad was no longer under warranty when this occurred. I was so sad, because the warranty is supposed to be for a year. My mother bought it for me as a gift last Christmas, so it had not even been out of the box for a whole year when this happened. Nevertheless, since my mother bought it in October, the warranty had *just* expired, since they go technically by the purchase date.
Apple offered to fix it for me for $300!!!! A ridiculous price for a loose wire inside. I simply am not in a position to spend that kind of money, and if I was, why not get a new device at that price (NON-Apple!). I was very upset, but I didn't give up on it. I scoured the Internet for an affordable solution, I found one, and it worked!!
The problem is caused by a loose cable on the inside, simple as that (can you imagine they ask $300 for the fix!! After all I have invested in the App store, and buying the Apple keyboard to boot!!!).
The fix I found is simple, I did it, and it worked for me. It is the same repair a professional would do in this situation.
The following video demonstrates how to open your iPad. Warning! This is a do-at-your-own-risk solution! But I found it quite easy. Watch the video (which actually demonstrates the entire process of replacing the screen),
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG5HhdeP_VY
Obviously, for our issue, you will not remove your screen. Simply disconnect the two cables as shown in the video, and reconnect them!! Simple as that! Then just reassemble it according to the video.
I purchased the prying tool and screw driver and latches from sw-box.com -- for under $20. I think it comes from Hong Kong, but it only took 8 days to get to me in TX, USA.
I hope this helps someone else.

My MacPro 10.6.8 has a thin green line on the screen.

My MacPro is just over a year old now and I have a thin green line on the screen. I hooked it up to my TV and on the second window (the TV) the green line wasn't there. Whats the issue? How do I fix it?

From what you are saying, sounds like a line of pixels out on the display.
Did the TV use the same connector on the computer? If not, swap the display with the TV. If you still have the line, it is one of the items that you swapped across.
Have you tried connecting the display to another computer? If so, is the line still there?
What kind of display is it? Can you swap the data cable and try a different cable, could be a cable issue.
Any adapters in use? If so, try swapping those to rule them out as a problem.
Did the TV use the same connector on the computer? If not, swap the display with the TV. If you still have the line, it is one of the items that you swapped across.

Open Illustrator and I get crazy colors all over

When I open Illustrator, I get crazy colors all over in my work environment (not all over the screen and not just on the art board but in the whole environment.) The colors are not always the same. Opening and closing the file doesn't solve the problem, I have to close the entire program. I can have multiple .ai files open, one might have crazy colors but the other doesn't. If I open Illustrator again and then the file, the problem doesn't necessarily happen again even with a file that was recently crazy.
A picture says a thousand words. Check out the attached capture.

From your email this does sounds like something random and sporadic that does not have a pattern. Has this started recently, or is this on a new machine. Has anything changed such as a font you did not use before, or an image or strange file format some of these file have. A corrupt/damaged image of something like a cmyk jpeg(the format was meant to be RGB and some programs occasionally act funny) can cause something like this.
Are you able to solve this by possibly toggling preview mode Command Y(Ctrl Y Win), view >> overprint preview. The preview almost looks like a cable is loose from your monitor to computer. Clean your computer with a can of compressed air and focus on any dust laying on the monitor card and cable connections outside the computer.
Sorry for all the wild guesses, but if you can tell us more about your system and any patterns you find, that can help.

Black lines all over page

When set a document in my printer to copy or print it prints out the page FULL of black lines all over the paper. The only way I can get the page to copy so I can read it is to scan the document, save it on my desk top, then print off of my desk top, Thats the only time that the page is not covered by black lines.
How do I fix this?

Why does my web page, created on iWeb, look correct on Safari but has thick black lines all over it in Firefox?

Why does my web page, created on iWeb, look correct on Safari but has thick black lines all over it in Firefox?

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand? I assume those black lines are around photos or objects that have had a frame or drop shadow added to it, right? If so that's a known issue.
There's a workaround for that in this tutorial: #7 - Converting Photos w/Frames, Drop Shadows and/or Reflections into a Single Image File. That should get rid of those black lines/boxes.
