Ipad 32gb wifi, got too hot error, let cool down, then blue screen, won't reboot or power on
a friend's ipad got the too hot error message earlier this afternoon, despite the device never having been used outside and having been inside in a 68 degree house at the time. was being used to watch YouTube videos primarily.
let the device cool down.
then they got the blue screen, and now the device won't power up, acknowledge power cord plugged in, or reboot at all. no apple screen, no slider, nothing.
i'm guessing the device is totally bricked.
anyone have any other suggestions, before we call tech support (it's a company-owned device, not personal, and only purchased in september 2012 so still under warranty).
thanks!
Hi Buddy! Well I was up 'til 5am and NOTHING changed on the indicator lights OR the computer...gave it 'til I got up today (11am ish) and still NOTHING!(Just my power bill going up LOL) However, if I turn it off, back on, off, back on THEN press alt+f10 BEFORE it starts 'circling' I get: "preparing repair" right away which gets my hopes up BUT nothing.OK. So I have gone to look at the option of buying repair discs like you suggested, but the bleeping store web page keeps coming up "sorry ...we are aware of this problem...we are working on it" all in red ink. Yup, right, like you have great customer service too, yeah? grrrrrAnyhoo, wondering about this:a) could something be LOOSE? A neighbour told me her son had the EXACT same model and problem and just the RAM was loose. He had to pay $$ a technician just to fix that which took about 5sec. Could that be the case here? Something loose?b) Should/could I open the computer and check myself? What does the RAM board look like? Can I find a diagram somewhere that shows me a map of the inside of the computer? I am a craftsperson (jewelry) and I am quite confident I have the tools to open it and look inside...What do you think?

IPHONE 4 Temperature too hot needs to cool down????
I waited 12 hours in line for my iphone 4 and got it today. Got it activated in the store, worked fine. When I got home, it started saying "Temperature too hot, needs to cool down". It wont let me charge or sync. The phone is not even warm, as I had not used it since i left the store..I have waited a few hours and I am getting concerned. Any advice please?
so the info in that link is correct.
No it's not. The directions given are for a Reset and no matter what you call it, following those directions will not erase any data or settings and will certainly not restore the phone to it's original state. I've done this hundreds of times and it's like rebooting a computer - nothing is lost.
Check the manual... http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf Search for the terms Reset and Restore.
Please learn the functions of the iPhone before posting solutions on a tech support forum. -

I brought an New Ipad 32Gb Wifi Cellular from US. Is it eligible to claim for warranty in India? My Friends told me that APPLE products brought from other countries are not eligible for warranty claim. Please clarify?
it should be, it's just that they dont have apple store in india but they have apple authorized service providers
-but here's the catch *additional charge may apply -
My iPhone 4s got too hot and since any calls I make or receive, the person on the opposite end can't hear me at all... Any suggestions?
I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s. Usually the solution is one of the following:
1- If your volume indicator says headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
Hope one of these works for you -
Just updated my Ipad operating system and one of my apps starts but then the screen turns white, with only the advertisment at the top showing
The normal suggestions.
Close the app,off fully. Double tap the home screen then touch and hold any of the icons on the task bar until they jiggle, then close them all off by touching the - sign.
Then reboot the pad and try the spp again. If same issue, delete the app, then reload it. ( no charge). You may just have a bad copy. If continues, write to the developer, they may need to do an update. I have an older version of the same app and it works fine.
Since yours is the ad supported version, they are maing real sure you see the ad. Is it as simple as you need to click thru the ad to get to the game? -
My iPad just died. The gear symbol came up and then the screen went blank (turned off). It was fully charged so that wan't the issue.
That is indicating that the device has gone into recovery mode. Press just the Power button until the red Power Off slider appears and slide to turn it off. Then power it back up to see if it has exited Recovery Mode. If it has, then you should be good to go.
If it has not, then the issue you had that caused the iPad to turn off was one that put your device into Recovery mode requiring that you go through the recovery process (i.e., the reset did not process since the issue required a recovery to resolve). Here is a link that explains what you need to do to get out of Recovery Mode in that case:

I' d like to know is this iPad with Retina display, 32GB, Wifi and Cellular, price $729.00 called iPad 4?
Officially it's not referred to by Apple as the "iPad 4". Apple's official designation is "iPad (4th generation) Wi-Fi + Cellular". But the model sold in the Apple Store with the specifications and price you give is what many users will call an "iPad 4", yes. It is the most current model of iPad.

Schannel errors - appears to be causing blue screens
Hi guys
Every once in a while (a few times a month) our RDS server (server 200r82 hyper-v VM) decides to blue screen and restart.
Each and every time it crashes, we notice hundreds and hundreds of schannel errors appearing just before the crash (event ID 36888)
Well, it did it again this afternoon, and over the last 12 hours we noticed 1008 instances of this error, with 60 odd messages appearing within 0.2 seconds of each other, and 2 minutes before the crash.
I also noticed that just before the crash, there were a handful of services which hung seconds before the logged unexpected shutdown event. These services are as follows.
- UmRDPService
- WPDBusEnum
- UxSMS
- Audio Endpoint Builder
After the crash, it doesnt log any Schannel errors. although, saying this now and just checking again, it looks like its logged 127 instances of the same schannel error, starting from after around 2 hours of bringing the server back online.
Do these Schannel errors cause blue screens/crashes? Or is it something else I should be looking at... I'm at a loss, as there's not a lot more in the way of logs that seem to be telling me what's going on..Hi EsDood,
Would you please let me know complete message of Event ID
36888? For Event ID 36888, it generally occur if a user tries to access a web site using HTTP but specifies an SSL port in the URL. Please check the Schannel tracing log if find relevant clues.
How to enable Schannel event logging in IIS
Please also refer to following thread and check if can help you.
Schannel
error, Event ID 36888? - IS there a way to Identify what causes Schannel to log error?
In addition, I noticed that a BSOD issue occurred on the Windows Server 2008 R2. Troubleshoot this kind of
kernel crash issue, we need to analyze the crash dump file to narrow down the root cause of the issue. Did you get any dump files? If get, please refer to
KB315263 and check if can help you.
If this issues is a state of emergency for you. Please contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support (CSS) via telephone so that a dedicated Support Professional can assist with your request.

If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Hope this helps.

Ipad flickering then blue screen then off. Won't come on now?
ipad flickering blue screen then off. won't switch on?
Has the iPad been dropped?
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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
