IPad Displays Enlarged Screen

My father-in-law (92) was playing Simon Says and somehow sent the screen in enlarged mode. Everything is blown up. Home page show only 9 apps enlarged. Can't scroll from body of screen. Only motion is at edges with only slight scroll. Can't even get to Settings. I had previously set Accessibility>Large Text>24pt to enlarge the App Icon Labels but that didn't work for that.
Restarted to no avail. Anyone have a clue or is it Support time? Thanks. Oh yea. On home page open, normal screen flashes for a second than expands.

I can't open the Accessibility tab. Took several minutes just to scroll down and left (on dock) to Settings. In Setting>General, screen won't scroll down that far without holding it at top of upward scroll. It keeps springing back up. I can see the Accessibility tab but it won't open. This *****! What could a 92 year old man do to this thing? Thanks

    My iPad 4 does not show up on my TV screen when in AirPlay mirroring mode using WiFi.  The iPad displays AirPlay set to TV with the Mirroring On (green).
    My iPad IOS software is 8.2 and my Apple TV software is at 7.1.  The TV displays the Apple Menu.  The “Settings” does however displays the General menu allowing me to see:
    Apple software:          7.1 (7003)
    Apple TV:                   Model No. A1464, Part No. MD199B/A
    Signal Strength shows 5 circles.
    It does not display the iPad screen but when I use the BT Sport App I can hear the sound but there is no video.  I have searched the internet for a solution to no avail. The problem first arose when the IOS was at 8.1+ but it worked correctly briefly when I updated to IOS 8.2.  Can you help please?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • While updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    while updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    Disconnect the iPad, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!, reconnect and follow the prompts.
    If that does not work then see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • TS3274 My ipad display will not function, the screen will not display anything when turned on, you can see that the screen lights up but it is completely black

    The screen on my iPad will not display, the screen lightens up when powered on but the screen stays black, any fix for this that I can do at home?

    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

    Energy Saver, you can keep the computer awake while the screen saver shuts the monitor off but I'm not sure that would do it for you.

  • What's wrong with my ipad display?

    Today when I turned on my iPad I had about an inch and a half thick bar of colorful lines coming down the center of my ipad display. In time the bar turned completely black. Everytime the display goes to sleep, when I wake it up, it has the colorful lines again.

    Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
    Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
    If that doesn't work, then update iTunes on computer, backup device to iTunes, then restore the device.

  • TS3274 My Ipad display is stuck on portrait mode. I tried the toggle switch, turning off and restart and just now backed up into Itunes and restored and still is stuck on portrait mode and it won't flip to landscape mode. Is this a hardware problem?

    Has lock rotation been accidentally enabled within the control centre? If you swipe up the screen is there a circle with a lock symbol & if so is is greyed out or white - if white it is enabled.

  • 6.1.2 update bricked my iPad Mini - White Screen of Death

    I updated to 6.1.2 over wireless.  Shortly after, I noticed the battery was draining extremely fast.  I followed a suggestion I found here to let the battery drain to 0 and to reset my settings under Settings>General.  When the battery was about 50%, I shut it down completely as I wasn't using it and so that it would charge faster (not using battery on standby, etc).
    I let it charge for about 4 or 5 hours.  When I turned it back on, I got a bright, solid white screen and then it shut off... or so I thought.  The device remains warm, as though it was in regular use, but the display is OFF - NOT blank, OFF.
    It will not go into Restore or DFU mode, it will not turn back on, it will not do anything.
    Waiting on an Apple call in the morning, but once it is replaced, I doubt I will purchase another Apple product, considering the sickening irony that my iPad was functioning fine prior to the update and the VERY UPDATE MEANT TO IMPROVE BATTERY LIFE ACTUALLY KILLED MINE to begin with. 
    I have very weak faith in Apple at the moment.

    Guys, my ipad mini just had the exact same issue yesterday.
    It was recently updated (about 1 week ago) to 6.1.2  and since yesterday it just turned into a brick (black screen, no reaction whatsoever,...) .
    I tried different chargers & different USB-ligthning cables without any result. Somehow it seems the battery does not have any juice anymore and won't charge either.
    My bad luck was that 4 months ago my daughter had the ipad mini dropped on the floor and the screenglass has a small crack. It did not affect any functionality and still worked fine untill yesterday. I went to an official apple store and they told me that the warranty doesn't count on the complete ipad since the screen is cracked/damaged.
    Explaining that the crack had nothing to do with the current issue we have did not help.
    Now I'm standing here with a 6-month old product which has no warranty and is as death as a brick.
    Thanks to Apple!

  • Work a iPad mini as screen for Mac mini?

    There are apps that allow you to use an iOS device as a secondary screen for a computer. Search the App Store. Here are some:

  • I have an enlarged screen.  How do i get it back to its normal size?

    I have an enlarged screen that will not go back to its' normal size.  How can I get rid of this large screen?  I have lost the option to use File, Force Quit. There is no yellow button to drop the current screen and there is no red button to quit the current screen.  I have right double clicked and left double clicked and there are no options to reduce or quit.  After I figure out how to get rid of this large screen, I also need to figure out how this happened so I will be careful not to do it again.  Would very much appreciate any help, but will have to look for responses on my cell phone because I cannot access my email on this computer.

    Hello folks, can anybody please tell me is it possible to repair display? My iPad display has broken I am very much upset
    Thanks to all

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.

  • Displaying Iphone screen on Computer

    Hi,
    Is there any easier way to display Iphone screen on computer, I do not want use jailbroken software to do this.
    Best Regards
    Som

    The next best thing to displaying it on the computer would be a projector or monitor. We've used our iPads to display documents onto a projector, and a PC monitor would work the same way. We used the iPod to Composite Cable found here -- http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB129LL/B?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    Not sure if you just want it on a larger screen, or if you wanted to view it on your desktop.
    Hope this helps.
