IPad mini first gen screen sudden black and White lines

wondering  if anyone could help regarding my ipad screen. suddenly has white and black lines flashing across screen and will not stop. Already hard reset it and tried DFU mode but still no joy. Also says before It cut off completly that wi fi is not available at all as if it wasn't even a feature  of the ipad, really baffled. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance.

Seems you've already tried the common fixes for these types of odd issues. My hunch is that if the procedures you've tried have done nothing, it may be hardware related and a possible trip to the Apple Store's Genius Bar would be your next move to get to the bottom of the issue. You'll need a reservation and your Apple ID:

    This is a user-to-user forum. Apple does not respond to posts here. You can give Apple your feedback on the Feedback page:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    They don't respond directly there, either. And once you post something here, people will comment as they see fit, regardless of what you originally hoped for. That's just the way it is with a public forum.
    Try Groove for iPad. People seem to think it's a great replacement to the previous music app.

  • I can log on icloud on pc but when i enter password on my ipad mini first gen with ios8 it tells me wrong password. and i can receive mail but cannot send any mail via icloud, gmail, yahoo never had to set this up with ios7. how do i resolve this?

    I updated my ipad mini first gen 32gig (4.3gig free) to run ios8 8.0(12A365) and i have a problem sending emails. i can receive mail but when i send it fails. my dropbox works fine, safari, and other apps work fine on the internet just the receiving of mail. Do i need to add a new outgoing server, though i dont remeber having to do this when i updated to ios7. how do i resolve this?

    Here's a troubleshooting article from Apple:  iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
    It doesn't seem to cover your specific issue, but have you tried using a different network (either a different wi-fi network, or switching from wi-fi to cellular or vice-versa if you have a wi-fi+cellular iPad)?
    For GMail, iCloud and Yahoo, copies of messages are stored on their respective servers, so you could try deleting the account on your iPad, then re-adding each account one at a time to see if that resolves the issue.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPad Mini (first gen) won't update to 8.1?

    Hi, I have an iPad mini (first gen 16gb with 10gb free space), and it won't update to 8.1.
    I've tried doing it through iTunes connected to my Windows 7 laptop and I've tried to do it over wifi and cellular -- it will download, but when it "prepares to update" nothing happens. It just sits and hangs. For hours. It won't stop unless I delete the update off the iPad and force close iTunes.
    The screen doesn't turn black or act like it's updating at all. It acts normal.
    There's no damage to it, it's in a case and has never been dropped or scratched; it looks and acts brand new other than this.
    What is causing it and how can I fix it?
    Thank you.

    What exactly happens when you try to update it? If you're getting an error message, you have to tell us what it is. We are not psychic.

    Try resetting your phone, hold the home and sleep/wake button down until the apple symbol comes up, then release. If that doesnt work, you may have damaged your phone and need to take it to an apple genius bar.

  • My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help.

    By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
    If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
    I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position!

  • Have a MacBook Pro. the computer will not boot up, the screen has black and white stripes and multi color bands as well.

    Yeah it's dead. Take it to an Apple Genius Bar and have it checked out. Then buy a new one.

  • Horizontal black and white lines on screen

    I accidentally dropped my iPhone on my macbook track pad. It was about a 6" drop, nothing huge. But when the phone hit the laptop, the macbook screen immediately went to horizontal black and white lines. It reminded me of static on a tv.  The lines lasted for about 30 seconds and then the laptop shut down and restarted itself.
    Should I be checking the hard drive or anything?

    " But when the phone hit the laptop, the macbook screen immediately went to horizontal black and white lines. It reminded me of static on a tv.  The lines lasted for about 30 seconds and then the laptop shut down and restarted itself."
    How's it been running since then? Possibly you hit it hard enough to put a voltage transient through the machine.
    Hopefully the logic board wasn't damaged but do what Oglethorpe says and have Apple run an ASD on it.

  • HT4061 I have black and white lines on my screen what is up?

    My screen is displaying black and white lines. How do I fix it?

    Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. If that doesn't fix it, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar as it sounds like you screen has given up.

  • IMac screen flashes black and white when returning to top sites or screen saver

    iMac screen flash black and white when returning to top sites or before sleep...any ideas why?

    Howdy OatsaMae,
    It sounds like your screen is flashing unexpectedly on you for some reason. I would recommend this section from the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC. 
    Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • No matter what website I am on all of a sudden the page will be covered in black and white lines and I can't see any of the page. What is happening and how do I fix it? It has only started since I loaded Firefox 4 this week.

    I am very frustrated because I keep having my pages become covered completely in black and white lines. It has even happened on this page when I tried to use the drop down arrow by 'this happened'. I can sometimes read the page if I click over the area I want to read but this is not common. This has only been happening since I downloaded Firefox 4. I thought this would be a better version but now I am not so sure.

    I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
    This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it !

  • How can I prevent my screen getting covered with black and white lines while working on the internet which only happens with firefox and only go when I 'go back' or go down a page?

    It happens as I surf - horizontal black and white lines particularly when I scroll down and only goes if I can go to a new page or go back a page. It is driving me crazy and only happens with firefox. I have disabled all plug ins but it still happens.

    Try to disable hardware acceleration.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • Scrolling with mouse on pages create black and white lines,

    When scrolling with mouse, periodically the whole screen turns into black and white lines. Sometimes whole page, sometimes just pictures/side ads. If you continue to scroll it does go away but then you need to scroll back to where the lines started, its hard to explain, i have taken 1 photo of the problem but will take more photos as i can, i really enjoy how Firefox runs on my computer, it has always been the best browser for my needs. I did recently buy a new desktop, but it did it then also, so i removed it and tried running explorer and Google and i just don't like them, so i am hoping we can get this fixed.

    Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool?

    why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool? It has never done this before last night. It filles the Whole lasso seleted box with (what it almost looks like) black and white caution lines. then when I go to zoom out, my zoom option starts to mess up where you cant click and move your mouse to zoom in/out with ease but where you have to click to zoom out (many times).
    Can ANYONE help me?

    I am using CS5, WIndows 7, I am not sure how to tell if my drivers are up to, and I am more than happy to screen shot it.
