IPad 2 - Warrenty Clicking Screen problem?

Greetings, I have had my iPad 2 for almost a year now and suddenly when im tuching the screen i hear a "click" sound. I think it is the adhesive that is starting to break lose. Does anyone if the warrenty covers this kind of issues?
Cause i have read that others have had similar problems with the "click" sound.

Since it appeared to be a hardware issue, I figured I would take a chance and open the iPad up.
Upon opening, I saw two similar connectors, one for the battery and one for the lcd screen.
I disconnected them, cleaned them, and reseated them, figuring it might make a difference. But it didn't.
After putting everything back together, the ipad still froze exactly like before after 2 minutes. At least
I didn't make it worse!
So I started to think that this screen freezing problem seems to have gotten worse since the seasonal
change in weather has gotten progressively warmer here in Pennsylvania  from February to June, and that
it would be interesting to put the iPad in the freezer for 15 minutes and see if cooling the iPad improves it's
performance.
It did! After 15 minutes in my freezer, the iPad was able to respond properly for 26 minutes before the screen "froze".
Is this because there is a component that is heating up inside, and cooling the iPad slows down that process,
OR
is the touchscreen more capable of "distinguishing" my warm fingers when the iPad is generally cooler?
All thoughts welcome.

  • Screen problem making iPad unusable

    My iPad2 is 15 month old and has developed a strange screen problem. It seems to have developed a mind of its own, typing ahead with random characters, doing its own thing when scrolling and trying to select in apps. Two days ago Apple support said restore to factory settings which I did. Same problem came back. Yesterday Apple support said the same thing which again I did. Same problem came back Today Apple support say it's a hardware issue out of warranty. We had a polite discussion about EU legislation but to cut a long story short, they basically said "sorry about that, but there is nothing our policies will let us do, you're on your own"
    Not exactly the response I hoped for. So I've now got an iPad that is basically useless, unless I want to use it as a door stopper.
    My business made a strategic commitmnt to Apple in Mid 2011 and this iPad was part of our shift away from PC/Windows. It's the first time I have needed to deal with Apple Support, and while each of the people I have spoken to have been professional, understanding and helpful, they have been unable / not allowed to assist any further.
    Yes, we could have taken out Apple Care Agreements. We chose not to on the basis of 2 year statutory warranty and Apple's reputatiuon for reliability. Seems I made a big mistake here and am left wondering if we made the right decision in going down the Apple route. Our investment in Apple hardware and software is massive for an SME and our workflow depends on iPads.
    I'm left with a problem. Thanks Apple.
    I'm still a fan but my blinkers have been removed. No longer will you be giveen the benefit of the doubt when you screw up - Maps, WiFi etc - as you have had a direct and negative impact on my business and missed a chance to keep a very happy customer on board.
    Does it help to post this? Not really, but it's off my chest.

    And you are within your "rights" to post this. But you do realize that we are not Apple employees - correct? We are just other users like yourself. If you feel that you have been treated unjustly, move up the Apple chain of command. Politely demand to speak to the next higher up and go from there.

    You may want to look at this about using recovery mode to restore your iPad.

  • HT1725 My problem is when I want download anything it doesn't downloading .and the IPad writte in his screen the apple ID it did not use yet in the iTunes stor. Can I know how I ll solve this problem ???

    Plz how I can download normally without problem.because the iPad writing on his screen this ( appleID did not use yet in iTunes)

    I would restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod on your computer and start over. It appears the iPod is associated with another account.  Any media that came with the iPod does not belong to you and di not transfer with the iPod hardware.

  • Yesterday i bought ipad4 i transfered photos from pc to ipad that it opened in ipad when i click slideshow everything went black. whenever i m opening the application(photos) full screen looking black but all photos are occuping memory.

    yesterday i bought ipad4 i transfered photos from pc to ipad that it opened in ipad when i click slideshow everything went black. whenever i m opening the application(photos) full screen looking black but all photos are occuping memory.i can see the pictures in settings>brightness>wallpapers but i couldnt able to see in photos application in ipad4

    I have several thousand photos in several folders. I have noticed that whenever I want to change the folder used as the side show source, it takes the Screen Saver Preference pane a very long time to respond. It is as if it is scanning all the photos in the currently assigned folder in order to display them in the preview window provided, and it gets so dogged down doing that it can't respond to my clicks on the Choose Folder option.
    Assuming you don't want to redistribute your photos into a greater number of folders or subfolders so there would be fewer in each folder to process, you could try a workaround. Try moving your currently-assigned folder to your desktop temporarily, before opening the Screen Saver preference pane. If the preference pane can't find the old folder, it may immediately ask you to choose a new one. You could hopefully then do so, close the preference pane, and then put back the old folder.
    It's my understanding that there will be no future updates to Tiger, only security fixes.

  • Screen problems ipad 2

    My ipad 2 suffered a hard drop recently. It works well except the screen. Only appears the basic colours. Are there any solution or trick to recover the full colours? I need to change the screen?
    Thanks
    Fernando

    Some iPad users have been able to revive their dropped iPad. Turn the iPad over and give it a HARD SLAP on the back. May take several slaps.

    ok,
    At this little tutorial here:
    http://www.developer.com/tech/article.php/610011
    It says
    "The Document interface is the content model for Swing text components. Every Swing text component has an instance of Document associated with it. The Document contains both the content for its component as well as any style information for the rendering of the content. All content is stored in the Document's Element array. Style information is stored in each Element as an AttributeSet. We'll get into AttributeSets in the next article, when we discuss styled text components. "
    Mainly concentrating on :
    All content is stored in the Document's Element array. Style information is stored in each Element as an AttributeSet.
    This would indicate that each time a new attribute is applied to something that it is stored as a separate String in an array, along with the attribute relating to it, would it ?
    I've looked here:
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/swing/JTextPane.html#getParagraphAttributes()
    And here :
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/swing/text/Document.html
    But still cannot figure out a way to do this, I presume I must get at the Document 'array', and if I had this everything would be fine.
    Should I run through every single charactor in the 'editable' JTextPane, check its attribute and add it my my own special made class?, and pass this class to 'non-editable / viewable-only' JTextPane ?
    Any opinions would be very helpful.

  • IPad white screen problem

    see here --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMpM5mPQRpI
    I have an iPad screen problem where the display is all white. It can only be put back by attaching and detaching the Apple Smart Cover (original from Apple).
    Now the screen has a white "halo", it seems the white screen burned the LED or something.
    I'll take this to the Apple shop later... but since this is Manila, it's just a "premium reseller", not an actual Apple store with Apple geniuses and technicians...
    Smart cover is 21-days old. iPad is 14 mos old. iOS 7.0.4
    Is there any fix without having to send it back? Unfortunately I think my ipad is out of warranty. I am in the Philippines.

    Try resetting it. Press the home and power button down for about 10 seconds no then turn it back on.
    Regards
    J

  • Fifa 12 airplay via appletv, black screen problem

    FIFA12 Appletv airplay black screen problem.
    Hello, i wanted to play fifa 12 iOS with tv via airplay. But it dint work, i see game picture for half second then tv goes black screen. Audio still working and game i can go to play, but i cant see the game picture. This is very sad because every other game works with tv via airplay. The only game which would be really great with airplay doesnt work :( We tested it with two different tv and two different iPad 3's. And the tv is 40" the other one was much smaller and apple tv is the newest one with newest software.
    Has someone else had this problem? is the apple tv problem or maybe fifa 12 have bug or something? i hope we can get this working, iv seen fifa 12 via airplay working very nice in few youtube videos so why it doesnt work for us.
    also where would be best place to contact fifa12 makers for this problem.
    Sorry for my bad english, it's not my national language.

    EA sent me the following anwser:
    Please try any the following that you have not tried as of yet:
    - Exit the game, then turn off and reset your device. Then try starting the game again.
    - Ensure you are running the most current version of the game (check to see if there is an update available for the game through iTunes).
    - Access the iTunes Store within your device and download the game again. It may prompt you to 'Buy' the game, but once you click it, it should allow you to download for free since you already paid for it through iTunes. Please note that we at EA have no access to your iTunes account. If you have any disputes, please contact iTunes (Apple) directly.
    - Make sure your device has the latest software:
    1. Download the latest version of iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes
    Note: If you already have iTunes installed, open it and select Help > Check for Updates. Then install any available updates.
    2. Connect your device to your computer with the USB cable, select your device in iTunes, and click the 'Update' button or 'Check for Update' button. Install the software update if available.

  • My music won't download on to my ipad after I click on the cloud icons

    I try to download music from icloud onto my ipad. After clicking the cloud icon on all purchases it downloads the music but it doesn't appear into my music app.

    OK, assuming you have "automatically update all songs and playlists" checked in iPod properties and the songs were purchased from iTunes. Do the problem songs play OK in iTunes? An authorization problem is a possible case of not transferring.
    Another possibility, the songs are not checked and you have "Only update checked songs" checked in your iPod properties.
