Ipad 4 while on charger flickers and goes on and off

Just bought a refurbished Ipad 4 ( Netherlands ) and I did the update to IOS 8.
Installed my apps and all and I put it on the charger ( original ).
Opened an app, and screen goes on and off. Even went out after I tried again.
Have tried to reset the tablet and started again with my account, but problem remains.
What seems to be the problem? Can anybody help me with this issue?
Thanks,
Ik heb net een Ipad 4 refurbished gekocht. Heb de update naar ios 8 gedaan.
Mijn apps erop gezet en toen moest hij aan de lader ( originele ) .
Denk ga tijdens het opladen mijn apps openen en bekijken, maar op dat moment terwijl ik in een app zit gaat mijn scherm aan en uit. Dus app afgesloten en weer opnieuw geprobeerd. Gaat weer knipperen en start zichzelf weer op.
Heb de ipad weer gereset in de hoop dat hij het dan weer gaat doen, maar het probleem blijf.
Wat kan het probleem zijn? Iemand een oplossing?
Bedankt

Stop using it
Take it to Apple and ask them to check it out

Are there any problems using the Ipad while is is plugged into the wall and charging?

Are there any contraindications using the Ipad while it is plugged into the wall and charging???

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

my phone wont turn on anymore, at first it was just shutting down for no reason but still coming on but today the phone wont come back on,now the apple sign is on screen and going in and out. what should i do to fix this problem

If you've tried the basic troubleshooting steps (restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new), and you've tried charging from a wall socket and these all fail, then you have a hardware problem.
If your unit is still in warranty, you will be eligible for a replacement with a refurbished unit free of charge. If you are out of your warranty period, you will be eligible for an out of warranty exchange which will cost the equivalent of 200 US dollars.

When I plug my iPod into the charger and it's done charging the battery goes on and off and it wakes me up at night please tell me how to fix this!

Cover the iPod with something so the screen light does not bother yuu

IPhone 5/Complaints the volume of my voice on calls is garbled and goes up and down.

I have an iPhone 5 and I've received complaints while on calls that my voice is garbled and the volume of my voice goes up and down as though I've pulled the phone away from my mouth. I had the sleep/wake button replaced by Apple and this is happening since then. I have rebooted the phone several times, to no avail. They also updated my software and battery. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you. I chatted with an Apple rep and they had me reset the phone and it didn't help. Have an appt at the Apple Store on Monday. I'll post the response here when I know something.

TS3274 my ipad won't charge / turn on despite pressing on/off button or home button.

My ipad won't turn on / charge. I'm not sure which problem it is. Despite charging a one month old ipad all night I cannot turn the ipad on. I have trie connecting the charger to a different socket and also via my laptiop but no joy. There is 'ding' noise when I connect the charger and no messages or battery icons on the ipad. Please can someone help as I desparately need my ipad for studying.

Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

My iPad won't charge, reboots all the time and is stuck at 1% battery.

Since last evening, my Ipad hasn't been charging at all. When connected to a wall charger it recognizes that the charger is connected but normally there is a lightning icon that keeps blinking when the Ipad is charging correctly, that is not the case right now. The battery has been showing 1% since morning but its on and there is no low battery alert. Also yesterday the iPad kept rebooting every two minutes, today it has happened only a couple of times since morning. I have tried restore, hard reset, updating the software to iOS6, everything and still no luck.
Has anyone else faced this issue? What could be causing this?
Thanks
Priyesha

Yes, we all seem to have the same problem but nobody has offered a solution. I've tried two different chargers, but it wont charge. It seems to recognize that it is plugged into a charger and shows the lightning bolt but it's constant not flashing. If I unplug the charger then a plug appears next to the lightning bolt.
It seem that the connector inside the iPad might be broken...or it's some kinda software iOS thing as somone mentioned earlier...but I dont know how to get the iOS to reset when I cant see the screen.
Any thoughts

HT1688 My iphone 5 screen is flickering then going black and becoming unresponsive.

I just bought this phone, it is up to date on software AND it has had a waterproof lifeproof case on it since day one. When the battery is low the screen flickers uncontrollably and fades to black or white, there are a bunch of sideways lines on it. This phone has NOT been dropped or gotten wet.

Was this phone ever jalbroken?
If restoring as new, without using a backup, didn't help, there is certainly a hardware problem that only replacement can fix. Your warranty is void unless you return to the USA. Short of that, finding a local independent iPhone repair center would be your only option

Screen freezes and goes white and whiter but works when moved?

okay so my macbook had this issue with the screen where it will freeze and slowly turn brighter with horizontal distortion. when i tilt the screen back or forward it will flick for a few seconds then work normally.
it started about a month ago and it's gradually getting worse and worse. now i actually have to 'stretch' the screen far back to see whats going on.
i believe that it could be a connection issue between the monitor and the logic board but wont take it to a macstore just yet because i still want to find a way to fix it myself.
another thing is- i've been reading some posts and im not the only user with this problem! i've found a good dozen of people with this same problem(occured between 12~18 months after the purchase) and it seems most of them, including myself, was too cheap to get apple care and has expired warranty.
so please! if you know a way to fix this problem at home please please let me know!
if you have this problem and your warranty expired and live in melbourne, we should visit a macstore and convince(or force) them to fix our macbooks free of charge

Hey Friends,
I have the same problem, it's not as bad as yours seems but its very annoying. It only happens when i use my skype and for a short while after, it doesn't seem like it really effects my computer other wise but it just worries me because I can't afford to pay for software problems and this is the second time my macbook has had a problem. >:( If you find a solution let me know please.

Restoring T30 from recovery CD set and going round and round in circles!!!

Hi!
I bought an IBM ThinkPad T30 model 2367-8G3 from a computer fair which appeared to have originally been Scandinavian by the look of its keyboard!!!
When I got it home I found it had a pirated copy of XP Pro VLK that practically every computer-fair reseller in the UK seems to use, so I wiped the HDD with a secure deletion tool and ordered a genuine set of three 2366/2367 Product Recovery CDs.
The Recovery Program will run but aborts with a basic version of XP bit no IBM drivers, manuals or anything else, nor does it continue with CD2 & CD3 - if I reboot with CD1 again the Recovery Program will start, and pkunzip will execute the unpacking of innummerable files, from both CD2 & CD3 then ask for CD1 again and start with XP Text-Mode Setup ad-nauseum until I ended up with ***Six*** Boot Menu Entries for XP Professional, no IBM tools, drivers etc., on any ***one*** of 'em!!! Also there is ***No IBM_Service Partition*** either!!!
1) Are the Motherboards locality - specific rendering a US/UK-set of Recovery cds useless?
2) Somebody said it was a BIOS setting that caused this but didn't say what the setting-change needed was! I have upgraded to BIOS Version 2.10, Embedded Controller version 1.07.
Has anybody solved this enigma, and if so can they please point me in the direction of a correct solution? I have Electronics Repair knowledge, so if there the motherboard has a locality-specific chip I can search for a dud one on ebay etc., and swap whatever it is that stores the localisation data!!!
Many thanks,
Chris Williams

Chris, welcome to the forum,
it sounds as though the drive hasn't been properly deleted. Even though you have "deleted" the drive I suggest you give Secure Data Disposal a try, using it at it's lowest level should suffice without writing a report to disc. Also make sure you reset your BIOS by selecting default settings and then in the BIOS Startup > Boot menu set the cd drive as first boot device.
Hope this helps

Had my Iphone 4s in rain and then the screen started to do funny things. (going to different screens and going to turn off screen) Want to put in a bag of rice now but can't turn it off, its just keeps turning itself on. Any help on how to turn it off.

As the header say any help on how to turn it off or just put it in the bag of rice and hope for the best as its down to 25 % power anyways

When an iDevice gets wet the First thing to do is Turn it Off... leaving it on is not good.
If you cannot Turn it off... go to your nearest Apple Store.
