Ipad mini blue screen for the third time.

Ipad mini blue screen for the third time. Bought in February 2014.
What I restored the first time but the problem persists. I want to know if it is a hardware problem or software?
Thank you.

Could be either. I'd make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out. It shouldn't be blue screening.

  • Dust Under Screen (For the third time)

    Hi Folks,
    I'm on my third iPad as of today (bought new mid June), and all have had some kind of foreign object under the glass including this latest replacement. Now, am I being fussy or what? Should I expect my £699 iPad to be free of dust where I can't clean? The Apple service diagnosis has always been 'issue detected' so it can't be me surely. I can't fault the service from Apple, but having explicitly stressed the point on the last call and being told it would be forwarded on to the service department and then receiving a replacement with the same problem has got me seeing red, even more so after being on hold for 25mins tonight, getting half way through a conversation with an Apple rep and getting cutoff. Would I be better off heading to an Apple store? I'm not particularly close to one which is why I took the UPS route. Anyone with experience of taking one back to an Apple store (London) and getting a replacement? I like the iPad, but I'm not entirely sure I want to keep the thing now after the time and money wasted trying to get what I paid for.

    Really bad luck. These are manufactured in a clean room, so maybe you're getting a series of products from a run where one of the workers didn't clean up properly. You are beginning to exceed the probabilities that are random. I think a fourth time they're going to suspect you.

  • No video, high fan noise on startup, for the THIRD TIME

    For the third time in slightly less than three years, I have encountered the same crippling problem with my iBook G4 (1 GHz, June 2004 vintage). In essence, the screen will abruptly go black while in use (not screensaver) and no amount of keyboard/mouse activity will reactivate the display. If I power off by holding down the power button then restart, the screen stays black and the fans come on full speed.
    Despite a bit of confusion on the details, this sounds like the problem described on the webpages below. In essence the Danish government has issued a finding that there is a design flaw which allows excessive logic board flexing, which in turn causes logic board failure.
    This is, as I said above, the third time I have encountered this failure in less than three years. Worse, they seem to be coming closer together. The first was after about 1.5 years, the second 9 months later, and now seven months after the second repair. Since I didn't get Apple Care, paying for a third repair out of pocket would bring my repair bill up to the cost of a new iBook.
    I do not abuse my iBook, and since the second repair I have been very careful with my iBook. Does anyone have any suggestions on getting Apple to acknowlege the problem or who I can appeal to? Apple's website doesn't seem to offer any e-mail tech support options and I'd rather not sit on hold for an age (again) if it can be avoided. While I don't want to abandon my iBook or Apple, I may be forced to if I can't rely on the hardware.
    Thanks

    iBook G4 1GHz (early 2004)   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   blank screen, high fan noise on start

    Well it doesn't sound like the Danish power problem since it will start up.
    The ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 4x AGP graphics processor chips in these iBooks have been problematic. Usually it's the reball problem and it can be reballed for ~ $78. I've done 4 this year and they work just great. A cheap way to get nice laptops. If they respond to the "shim fix" then reballing will work.
    A more troubling problem is with the 9200 chip itself. My reballer says that this chip is in itself the cause of some of these problems. He knows it since it's also used in IBMs, Compaqs and many other laptops and he's seen a lot of failures. My only failed reball was a 9200. I have a line on a replacement board or finding the chip in a broken PC.

  • 4G OUT AGAIN FOR THE THIRD TIME

    HAPPENED AGAIN AT WORK! I am down to 1x this morning for the third time! I am about to return this thunderbolt.

    Listen if the 4G doesn't work when it should, there are several things you can do to "reset" it. I work at a Verizon premium retail store in Englewood and I've come across a lot of people who had similar problems.
    -Complete reboot by holding power button.
    -Turn off mobile network and back on.
    -Switch to 3G only (CDMA Auto PRL only), then back to 4G again. This will reconnect to 4G from scratch and usually fixes up any connectivity issue I have.
    -Downloading the current update might help as there is a new update available.
    -It could just be that the location you are in has poor 4G connectivity. It's proven now that the Thunderbolt is capable of the fastest speed in downloading than any other mobile carriers with 4G network. It doesn't matter if T-Mobile has the "largest," when they are producing around 15-25mb while Verizon's go over 30 easily. I max out in the speedtest, which is a lot better than my own computer (a step below T1).
    The phone is capable of it. If it can't connect where you work, then it's just best to accept that you won't really receive great 4G until Verizon has completely upgraded nationwide 4G. 
    You can't blame Verizon when the simple fact is that you won't get 4G service in many locations. At least not yet. If you DO get perfect 4G connection but you're not getting it anymore, then a reboot will work perfectly fine. If not, then it's a problem with the 4G SIM card. Call the customer service number that was posted. It'll help to talk to a Verizon customer service rep. I mean, in terms of what the reps are capable of, they can only troubleshoot/do things that they are allowed to; but guaranteed they have solutions for this. Chances are, they will tell you the same things I've told you in the list above but it's worth a shot isn't it?

  • Order denied for the third time

    Hello my dear experts,
    I tried yesterday to order a creative cloud membership for students for the third time and for the third time I didn't recieve any confirmation neither an error because of my credit card. I already was in a chat with a support employee, he told me I should call my bank which I did, they assured me that there is no problem with my visa card.
    What drives me crazy is, that there is no hint or clue that the credit card is rejected, it only tells me over and over again that I'll recieve an e-mail within the next working day, but nothing happens. I don't get the issue. So please help me.
    My last order took place on 9th June 2013 at noon and my AdobeID is XXX
    Regards
    Stephanie

    Thank you very much! It worked now! :-)

    OK, for the third time writing this this session, after setting up iCloud on my IPMini, how do I access the clod to use the iWork apps?

    Note that you can not log into iCloud.com through the browser on an iOS device, only from a computer. If you want to use the iWork apps on your iOS device, you will need to purchase the apps from the app store if you don't qualify to get them for free.

  • IMac taking ten minutes to start up and sits at a blue screen for the most of the time. Also, when it goes into sleep mode I am unable to wake it up from it.

    For the past few days now whenever I go to turn on my iMac it takes roughly ten or more minutes to boot up. For the portion of this time it sits on a blank blue screen. At first it comes up to a plain white screen which after about 30 seconds has the apple logo on it and the spinning circle for about a minute then to the blue screen, every time. Then, to top it off right when this started happening another problem began occurring. The computer is set to go into sleep mode after 15 minutes of no use. But, if it is in sleep mode for too long I am unable to get it out and I have to restart the entire computer, but if it is just for a few seconds into sleep or a minute I am able to get the screen to come back. I can still here the fan running and such so I don't know what is going on. I have searched through discussion after discussion. I have tried: repairing disks, repairing permissions, starting up in safe mode, and such. There has been no luck so far. I was wondering if anyone could offer insight into fixing at least one of these problems since my schooling relies on the computer.
    By the way I this is an iMac 10.6.4 refurbished which we just bought about two weeks ago.
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    My iMac i7 quad was having the same symptoms with the blue screen and long startup times a couple of months ago.  Apple Care told me to bring it in to the local Apple Store, and after some diagnostics, the hard drive required replacing.  It took one day to replace the hard drive and my iMac is running great. I only had the iMac for about 12 months when the drive needed to be replaced.  Not sure if that is your Mac's problem, but it was for mine.

  • Work a iPad mini as screen for Mac mini?

    I Have a iPad mini 1 and I think about to buy a Mac mini, could I use the iPad as the screen for the Mac?
    best regards

    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:

    There are also apps that allow you to control a computer using the iOS device. Some are the free for non-commercial use TeamViewer and the paid GoToMyPC and LogMeIn

  • USB for the third time

    When I plug in my iPod to my PC it says USB device malfunctioned and not recognised.
    It also does that for my camera and my sons other mp3 player.
    When I look in device manager it shows unknown device. I can delete the device but when I try plugging in the iPod again it says found new device but then it reverts to the malfunctioned message.
    It's something to do with my PC.
    In device manager it says there are no drivers for that device?
    The iPod is playing fine - I have reloaded boy iPod and iTunes software.
    I can use my USB printer and the internet modem and a dongle in any of the USB ports OK.
    What is going on?
    Any ideas?

    OK so it sounds like you have a problem with your Windows machine and not your iPod or iTunes specifically. So perhaps you should post your question to a PC forum somewhere, not here where the discussion is about iPods. You have already stated your iPod works fine and the problem is the PC and its port or your operating system.
    Posting for a third time is not going to get you any additional help since your problem appears to be outside the scope of these groups and posting a third time will instead just get replies like this one telling you that you need to go find a PC, Windows, USB, whatever forum somewhere else for help.
    But for kicks, did you even try any of the suggestions in this article...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61711
    that was suggested to you by another poster on one of your other two threads? If so, what happened?

  • After I have finished installing a new theme, whenever I restart the firefox for the third time, firefox reset to its default theme automatically. Solution?

    For eg., I installed foxdie 4 theme. It asked to restart to take effect. I restarted and the theme changed to foxdie 4 theme. But when I started the firefox for the next time, foxdie 4 theme is gone. Firefox reset to its previous theme. Its happening whenever I change to new themes. Every time. With every themes.

  • Ipad would not power on for the third time, with as many Ipads

    I need some help, is there something wrong with me, or is it the Ipad's that i unfortunately selected. This is the 3rd ipad in less than 3weeks that i have to return to the store. the problem is the same with all three, work, then stop, and would not power on again.
    Is there some negative energy that is emanating from me that i triggering off this negativity?  

    It was said that lightning doesn't strike the same place twice, but that is not true. I have experience many same thing experiences in the past that told me for a certainty, that lightning can and does strike the same place twice. LOL. Unfortunately I didn't have to return the third I-pad i was able to get the problem solved by one of the support community members. (sorry i forgot his name now).
    His suggestion to another one having similar issues, i tried and it work for me. Probably that is what i should have done with the first one. unfortunately I did not know of this support group, only after me returning the 2nd, and i discuss those issues with some computer tech guys.
    I read that to get the I-pad turn on i was suppose to " hold in both the power button and the sleep button together for a few seconds and wait until the apple logo comes on, and by doing so it will not delete any data.
    I did just that, and after about a minute, it powered on, saving me a trip back to the store.
    So thanks guys for your support
