Ipad air 32 gb - pixel problem

Hello everybody,
I just bought ipad air 32 gb two weeks ago. Everything was great until 1 hour ago.
Out of thin air my screen has bugged. i think it is a pixel problem. i have a horizontal line across the screen. not all of the screen but a little portion of it has a line.
its like 4 or 5 cm ( sorry for eu measurement systems : ) )When i restarted the ipad, on opening screen ( black with white apple logo) line is not there, but on main menu and on apps, it is there.
do u think it is software or hardware?
What do u suggest?
here is a picture of the situation. the line is between "garage band" and "halftone" apps logos
also i uploaded the same pic, so u can see it bigger.
thanks in advance.

    Can anyone help me?
    Just bought on 15/11/2013

    You can call iService and ask to speak with a manager.

  • I have the same case with you an iPad Air in dead pixel or speckle silver dust on screen.  It is been 3 months I bought in Avant Abenson in Greenbelt Makati Philippines. Today I decided to change my screen protector film but the speckle dust on the screen

    Speckles dust on the screen and it cannot be removed today when I decided to change the screen protector film and noticed is not my fault it is a factory defect on screen it is either dead pixel or speckle dust on screen they are so many said and experience I have read.  So I need the replacement a new one for that dismayed screen on my iPad Air. I bought this 3 months ago in Avant Abenson at Greenbelt Makati Philippines.  I need the replacement for tomorrow I will go to the store I bought.  I love apple products but they need to replace and make go round to improve some defects and cannot be more escalate with this issue of the many of patronizing your products.  It is sometimes irritating to the eyes and seen dirt on the screen.  Thank you apple customer service to bringing up my complaints and a replacement for tomorrow's to inform the store I bought and advise them here in the Philippines to facilitate in regards to this matter. 

    I wanted to buy an ipad air to replace my ipad 2 but the one I wanted was (luckily) sold out.
    Yesterday I tested the air from a collegue and I noticed the screen was SUBSTANTIALLY less sensitive than the screen of my ipad 2 when using my stylus.
    I use Stylus R US especially for I annotate and with the air this did not work well at all... Half of the time there was no contact registered so underying certain parts of the text was a disaster...
    Just working with the finger all whent OK... Just fear that another app I use a lot (notes +) will have same problem.
    On the Ipad 4 also retina all goes *** smooth as on my ipad 2...
    Is this a fault of a specific ipad air series? Or is this normal?? If it is I think this is truelly a huge flaw and I cannot see how not manny people using the ipad for notetaking etc did not notice this...

  • Ipad air sound and battery problem after updating to ios 7.1

    After ios 7.1 update my ipad air passcode sound is muted for first digit. The audio volume is lowered in video player.
    The worst thing is battery is draining faster.
    Dear Apple,,,,your most advanced mobile operating system is getting worse and worse......please fix your bugs.

    check the brightness level on your iPad , try to lower it and see if this solve the problem .

  • Apple Portugal refused to replace my iPad air anymore with fabrication problems. Need help from Apple Ireland

    Hi, My english its not perfect but i'll try to explain my situation. I bought an iPad air with a problem in the monitor, yellow stains in the border with black screen and i went to an official apple repair in Portugal and they sent me for the third time an iPad with the same problem and with more problems like white graphics lines in the animation horizontal/vertical switch sides of the iPad view. At the fourth iPad that was sent with the same problem, Apple refused to replace for another iPad and said to me that was not their problem anymore and now I'm going to sue the company because nobody in Portugal can solve this situation in the costumer line. Im very sad with that, but i'm going till the end. I BOUGHT an iPad with FABRICATION PROBLEM and you guys don't care about to fix it. Thanks.
    What should i do more??

    Ok, but i can't find the email of apple ireland. Someone have it?? i can't make a phone call to their line because it's not free from Portugal.
    Apple doesn't do support by email. All the contact information that is available can be found by using the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page.
    If the call is not free, you may need to pay to call them.

  • IPad Air: stumped by streaming problem on dual band router

    I have a dual band router at home. My iPad Air will stream very poorly when connected to the 5 GHz band. By streaming, I mean Netflix, Crackle, etc. Everything works fine if I connect to the 2.4 GHz band. The strange part is that my old iPad One streams fine from either band. Even stranger, downloading stuff like apps or magazines works fine with the iPad Air on either band. The problem is only with the iPad Air when streaming on the 5Ghz band. Any one else has this problem?

    I am also finding streaming (from YouTube) to be poor both on wifi and 3G. My first gen iPad had a lot of problems, but streaming was never one of them. Signal strength is good and I haven't changed any network hardware or settings.

  • IPad Air 2 Cellular battery problems - fixed?

    please excuse me if this is a little long, I've been through quite a bit................
    my friends girlfriend was selling a brand new iPad Air 2 16GB Wi-Fi & Cellular on all networks.
    I was in two minds whether I was going to buy it, I did own an Apple iPad Mini Wi-Fi that I used pretty much all the time.....
    I went ahead and bought it, more than 50% off Apple's prices, I was happy.
    I used it straight away with my nano sim but noticed there were a few problems...
    1: the battery would drain very quick.
    2: every so often I got "popping noises".
    3: the battery would jump down 2/3%.
    it was still under warranty so I decided to make an appointment with the genius bar after speaking to advisor's through the Apple support.
    I went to my local Apple store and the employee said to rule out hardware problems, he'd replace the whole device.
    I was happy, I thought that was the end....
    NO. it was just the start....
    it was on iOS 8.1.2 when I got the replacement, I immediately updated to the latest which was 8.2 - yes; 8.3 is out now.
    I was still having issues, there was no popping noises but the battery was also terrible.
    after hours of reading on the Internet and through the Apple communities; I finally figured it out!
    at first, I thought it was my wireless messing up so I changed the router - still had the same problem.
    I read online about battery calibration, I didn't really know how it worked until I read more.
    as of right now, it seems to be much better after I done the calibration on iOS 8.3....
    it's been on for 3 hours and 40 minutes and it's now at 88%.
    (when I say on, the screen is on and LIT - Wi-Fi is on and auto lock NEVER)
    I have seen a few others having problems with their battery too.
    what I did was let it drain completely. waited 30 minutes after it shut down and switched it back on, it said 2% but drain and turned off straight away!
    I left it and went to bed knowing it was completely flat. I woke up, tried to turn it on - yep, was flat. I pressed and held the home button and power button, I got a flashing battery. awesome...(just to make sure!)
    charged it all night, woke up and it was at 100%! left it for a few hours at 100% and then tried my testing again.
    seems to be great now and holding it's charge very good!
    3 hours 50 minutes and at 88%.
    if my math would be correct, to hit 0% it should be on 30+ hours.

    Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon. The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
    Use the wall-mount charger that came with the iPad and charge overnight.  Do NOT use an iPod/iPhone charger.  Do NOT use a computer's USB port.  Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear).  An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
    I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem.  I am stating, however, that we don't yet know.  If the above test does, in fact, indicate a problem, read this.
    Also, according to Apple:
    Use Your iPad Regularly
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
    Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

  • IPad Air 2 touch sensitivity problems

    I purchased and iPad Air 2 two days ago.  I noticed the screen had sensitivity problems around the outer edges which were apparent when trying to use the keyboard.  Keys such as "Q," the microphone button and then pressing "done" as well as the character keyboard button and switching between various keyboards, etc. where not responding well to touch.  I exchanged it for another one the next day, brought it home and it exhibited the same problems.  Brought the second one back the store and the two sales associates noted the same thing only they had not come across this before.  They brought out another one which I tried at the store and it had the same unresponsive key problems.  Each iPad exhibited different degrees of this problem.  Bouncing between keys "q" "a" "z" in rapid succession or trying to select the different character keyboards at the very bottom of the screen made the problem.  Sometimes trying to compose an email or deleting one using the icons at the top of the screen exited the same problems.  That was three iPad Air 2's.  Several demo units exhibited the same problem while several others did not.  Is this a defective manufacturing issue or a potential design flaw associated with the new laminated layers of screen?

    Two of the three demo units at the Apple store worked great.  One of them exhibited the same problems I had.  Composing emails was a problem as well as trying to delete email.  Oddly, another persons iPad I tried worked well but they ordered their's online through Apple.  I beginning to believe that there is flawed lot of manufactured iPads.  I refuse to try to buy another one at the Apple Store in RI right now.  I may try to order one online and see what happens.  If that exhibits problems, then I'm done with the iPad Air 2 period.  I'll wait another year or so for the next version.  I would take your's back if I were you. 
    P.S. One thing I noticed with all the problem iPads is that if you're using them microphone button on the keyboard, each model's "ding" noise had some crackling sound with it.  I could replicate it if I waited for a minute or so.  If I pressed the microphone button immediately afterward, it sounded normal.  It's weird - not sure if it's related or not to the sensitivity issue.

  • My ipad air is giving me problems. It is slow, it turns off when I don't want it to. I don't have apple care but will I be able to a new one? I only had it for about 2 months

    Can I get a new ipad air

    You have AppleCare for a year included with your purchase, so if it's faulty, Apple will address it,
    You could have returned it within 14 days of purchase.

  • Does anyone have a problem with the ipad air screen?

    I bought an ipad air last week and the left edge of the screen was darker than the other side. It was obvious so I just returned it and bought a new one since the store didn't have the same style in storage. I bought another one from another retailer, and just found the same problem, but not as serious as the former one. So I just took it back to the store the next day and exchange another one. Unfortunately, the third one had the same problem at the up-left corner of the screen. I admit that I am picky, but I think I pay this amount of money so I deserve perfect screen. If the brightness of the two sides is different, I dont think it is a product of good quality.
    Just want know if anyone else have the same problem with me. Or you just can bear the small diffrence of display.  BTW, in China, it is reported spreadly that the ipad air screen has a problem. They even generalize the serial number for problematic ipad air.

    Yep.   Many quality control problems.   The new mini has fewer issues.   No problems with older models.

    Try this first - 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.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Cannot send email from my IPad Air

    I suddenly cannot send email from my IPad Air. Keep getting message that my email recipient
    was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.  Don't understand what this means as I have been able to send email before.

    Paula, in most cases this message appears when you are sending email from a ISP server not in the pop settings and SMTP settings in your email program.
    In example if I send out email from my iPad I must be on my own isp's server to send. I have roadrunner but if I send email out using say Verizon's email server I will get a reject notice.
    You did not say what email program you are using but if it is hotmail or yahoo or your isp's email in two of these email accounts there are stand alone apps which work much better than the stock email program on the phone.
    If you are using road runner or another ISP email you must get the proper Pop3 (incoming) server settings and SMTP (send) settings from your ISP
    You can then just go into the Settings-Mail, Contacts and Calendar section and click on the email account and change to the proper settings from your ISP.
    You could delete as you were told but why bother when only the sending and receiving settings need to be entered.
    If the settings are correct, on an iPhone it tests the settings. If correct send an email. If incorrect you will need the proper settings from your ISP.
    It is actually very easy to do.
