Ipad 4 screen freezes or turns blue

Continues to freeze screen or screen turns blue. Have to do hard reset to get back on. Tried restore but still doing this.

Try and force it into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost.

Hi RWD2,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
To resolve your issue with Facetime freezing when you end a call, I would try the first three steps in the article below.

Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If you are using Wi-Fi, it may be helpful to try these troubleshooting steps as well:

When I turn my iPad the screen doesn't turn?

When I turn my iPad the screen doesn't turn- please help?

On the top (near the battery indicator) do you see a little circle with a padlock in the middle? If so, there's a slide switch by the volume toggles. flip that switch and see if it restores the accelerometer

IPad Facebook screen freeze up.

While using Facebook on my iPad, the screen has frozen. I can leave Facebook and all other features and apps work fine.

Try this; Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. Keep the Powerbutton and the Homebutton pressed at the same time until you see the Apple logo on your iPad screen.

My iPad froze, screen went foggy, then blue, then black and now won't turn on at all

I was on the internet, when the page just froze, it wouldn't let me select anything on the page, zoom in, return to the main page, recognise I'd put the charger in or turn the whole thing off. A couple of minutes later, the screen went grey/foggy with lines all across the internet page, then another couple of minutes later went bright blue, then a minute later turned to black. I tried seeing if it would turn on, but wouldn't, so left it overnight. Tried turning it on again this morning, but nothing. It wasn't low on power, it was at about 60-70% when it happened, so I know it isn't a simple "try charging it".
Am going to take it into a store, but wondered if anyone had a diagnosis now?
Thanks

Have you tried a reset.
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

IMAC screen freezes and goes blue....

this just started yesterday - I did not add any programs or update any software recently. I have since added Norton and scanned for viruses.
PROBLEM: my system freezes and the screen goes blue. It does not "wake" back up right away and after it goes blue a few times, it stays blue and I have to hard boot. If I leave the system off for about an hour, I'll get a few hours out of it before this happens.
DIAG: As stated above, I checked for viruses. I also ran all available diagnostics, and am fresh out of new ideas. Since I can't open my iMac without voiding the warrantee, I can't check for any possible burst or bulging capacitors. I disconnected all perperials and still have the same issue.
HYPOTHESIS: I am heavily leaning toward a hardware problem, but before I take the trip to the Apple store, I wanted to reach out to the forum to see if anyone else has had this problem?
This is an early 2006 Intel based 20" iMac that I have been running (24x7) since late August 2006. I never had an issue with my first iMac (pre-Intel).
HELP!!!
intel IMAC 20" Mac OS X (10.4.8)

silentpartner,
Unless your issues match a known problem, (wouldn't appear too likely if no result from the Apple Hardware Test) before Apple will accept your iMac for hardware repairs, you'll have to prove it's not a software issue by reinstalling the OS. FWIW, if it's a hardware issue and in particular if the hard drive needs replacing, you'll want to back up your important data anyway, prior to turning it in for any repair.

Screen Freeze With Light Blue Tint

Hi,
I bought a refurbished 15" MacBook Pro from the Apple Store last August (2011 model, I think, running Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.3) and it's been fine up until the past week. Twice now, when the computer has been asleep and I've woken it up, the screen has frozen and has a slightly bleached out and bluish appearance and, unable to see the cursor when I move my finger on the trackpad, I've had to reboot using the power button. This seems to fix it, but I'm worried that it might indicate an ongoing or more serious problem.
Just to clarify, what I see is not a blank, pale blue screen, but the screen as it looked just before the computer went to sleep (background picture, any windows I had open), with a bleached-out, bluish appearance.
I can rule out accidental damage (it hasn't been dropped or had anything spilled on it, etc) but it has coincided with a problem I had with the MagSafe Power Supply. While I was using the computer last week with the supply plugged in, I looked down to notice the insulating layer next to the metal L-connector had split, exposing the wires, some of which had frayed. I switched off and disconnected the supply immediately, but can't say for sure how long the damaged supply was in use before I noticed the problem with it. Neither can I say for sure that the two issues are related, but this bleached-out blue screen problem first arose that day, although the second time it happened (this morning) I was using the replacement power supply which is intact.
Has anyone else experienced this? Luckily, my computer is still within warranty, so I'll call the helpline or visit a Genius Bar, but any other advice would be very much appreciated.

It's possible that it has affected to your computer, but it has nothing to do with the blue tint. Respecting to this problem, the first thing I recommend you is to reinstall OS X, holding Command and R keys while your computer is starting, so all the OS X files will be reinstalled and it should fix the problem if it's software related.
If it doesn't work, take the computer to the Apple Store because it could be a hardware issue. I have seen problems with some computers turning them on after sleep, but the blue tint isn't as normal as this problem

Screen freezing or turning to black

My imac is freezing and/or the screen is turning to black while I'm on the internet or while I'm using lightroom, happens 2 or 3 times a day. Unplugging, plugging back in works. Any long-term solution? Thanks, B.

read this post: sounds like you don't need to start up in safe mode yet, but you should install the application discussed and monitor the temperature your computer operates at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16181646#16181646

HT5457 ipad unlock screen freezes since updating ios

Since updating to IOS6 on my 3rd gen iPad, every other time I power on the "unlock" slider bar freezes, shuts down and when I press the "hard" power button on again it's unfrozen and I can again slide to unlock. This is frustrating. Anyone have any insight or have this same problem since updating?

(A) Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

Hi apple, i have recently purchased a iphone 5s of december of this year, so far things have been fairly smooth, but until recently my phones screen has been turning blue and shutting off over and over. i dont know what to do because i cant even use it.

Hi apple, I have recently purchased an iphone 5s of december of this year. So far i have had no problems and things were going fairly smooth. But up until recently, i was using my phone and all of a sudden the screen went blue and shut off. I was able to get it to the home screen an i though it was a 1 time thing. But it has been happening a lot recently and it has gotten to the point where it keeps trying to shut itself off then the screen goes blue. I dont know what to do and i was wondering if there is some kind of a refund for this or some way to fix it.

Wow.
How rude.
He gave you the correct answer. No one can tell you any more.
Try the basics from the manual. If this does not solve, then you would have to have Apple look at the iphone.
Why would you be so rude to someone who 100% correctly answered your question?

For no reason, "Firefox is not responding", get blue spinning wheel, screen freezes, fades out- Comes back after a little bit.

When in Firefox, for no apparent reason the screen freezes and a blue spinning wheel appears. I have to wait while it says that Firefox is not responding. Then the blue wheel disappears and the screen is back. This has also happen, even when not attempting to do anything such as scroll down or click on anything.

Playing music the screen freezes and if i want to make changes it will not let me.I go to restore factory settings and afterwards i am able to listen,view album covers,and change the type of music i want.Is there a better way to do this? Thx

When playing music on my ipad the screen freezes and i am not able to view album covers or make any changes i am only able to hear what i selected.
This is the third time it has happened since i updated to the new IOS 5.1. It never happened before.
If i go to Summary and restore the ipad to the factory settings then i'm able to run it as normal.
Is this a glitch in the new software,or a problem with my ipad?
Thanks for any help

Thanks Russ H and Ross H!
I'm finding Multicam, combined with Compound Clips to be extrememly efficient.
I started with 2 different video clips, along with 2 different audio clips.
Layed out both clips side by side (visually, they are on top of each other on the timeline),and made that a single compound clip.
Then I laid out both audio clips on top of each other on the timeline and made those a compound clip.
So now I have
2 original individual Video shots
1 compound video shot of the 2 above side by side.
2 original audio tracks
1 compound audio track
Next I made a multicam track, and added to it all 3 video shots (2 original + 1 compound) And I added the compound audio track. I set that audio track to be "the" track.
It's just a little bit of setup, but really not that bad, and the ability to use the multicam feature to switch between shots, while keeping everything in sync is fantastic!

Screen freezing grey - intermittent

Hi all,
My MacBook Pro has started to behave strangely with the screen freezing and turning a grey color for a period and time and then coming back to life. It used to be occasional but its happening more frequently now. It seems to come and go, and might last a few minutes or longer. A few times it lasted so long, that I had no choice but to switch off power and restart. Everything just freezes and it turns grey and sometimes get more and more saturated grey after 30-60 seconds. I can tell the CPU is still processing but I hear the normal sounds with applications running. I tried putting it to sleep and then wake it up, but the grey is still there.
Any ideas?
Paul

Sounds like a hardware problem with the screen or graphics card then, best give Apple a call.
