IPad iOS 8.0.2 My whole screen magnifies itself: I can not get it back to a normal screen size. How can I?

Since updating my iPad 3 to 8.0.2, my screen is so magnified, it's unusable but I can't get back to normal-size to try to solve the rest of it's many problems like slow or not starting. How can keep my screen at normal-size?
I have already rebooted it from 20% charge. It is fully charged now. Screen returned once on its own but again magnified. It is so large that as you type the opening pass-code, ( if you can find circled numbers of the pass-code at all) then only one number within a circle is revealed at a time.which makes opening the iPad very difficult as it continually makes mistakes on the code. This iPad 3 is 6 months old, traded in with a broken screen as my warranty ran out. The updates caused other problems but if iIcan't start, I can do nothing at all.

Try double-tapping the screen with 3 fingers and see if that zooms it back out - and if it does set Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom 'off'. If it doesn't zoom you back out then try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut.

Hi jholzworth,
It sounds like you might have accidentally hit the zoom button. Try hitting ''CTRL + 0'' to return it to normal size. Just so you are aware, ''CTRL'' and ''+'' will zoom in and ''CTRL'' and ''-'' will zoom out.
Hopefully this helps!

HT4539 my ipad is disabled and I can not get it to open my main screen

my ipad id disabled and I can not get it to open my main screen, how can i regain access to the product

If it's showing the red disabled screen then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

Can not get the screenpicture to fit the screen.

can not get the screenpicture to fit the screen. problem acurred after hooking up to an external screen. tried everything in screensettings, but the screenpicture is larger than the screen

When you slide the cursor to the edge of the screen, does the screen image scroll, allowing you access to everything (menu bar, Dock, etc.) even though you can't see all of it at once?
If it does, go to the Apple menu and open System Preferences > Trackpad. Is the box for "Screen zoom" checked, under "Two fingers"? If so, press the Control key and drag two fingertips downward (toward you) on the trackpad. Does the screen image zoom down to normal size?
Another possibility is pressing Option+Command+8. If System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing > Screen Zoom has accidentally been turned on, this will turn it off and return your screen to its normal size.

I decided to restore my iPod touch 3G as i thought it might refresh it to get the iOS 5 as i really want it. Before i restored it i had iOs 4.3 which i have always had on my iPod. After restoring my iPod it went back to its factory conditions and i got iOS 4.2.1 which i have never had before? how can i get it back to my normal one or how can i get iOS 5 as on the apple website nothing is telling me to how to download it? can i please get some feed back so i know what to do.
Also the touchscreen isnt intime as quick as it used to be after I restored it, This is quite annoying whist im playing a game on my iPod. Thanks:)

Are you sure you really have a 3G iPod? A 2G iPod can only go to iOS 4.2.1. When you restore an iPOd wyou will get the latest iOS.
You need iTunes 10.5.X for iOS 5.
If your iPod is a 8 or 16 GB one it is a 2G iPod. Apple only made 32 and 64 GB 3G iPods. A 32 GB one can be either. To tell a 2G fom a 3G ypy need to know the model numbe engraved on the back see:
