Ipad mini goes into lock screen?

My ipad mini keeps going into lock screen whilst I am using it. What could be causing this?

If you do not touch the screen within the lock screen time period it will do this. If this is happening while you are actively touching the screen or other action then:
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

    Thank you for that update.
    I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    And restore it first as a new device, and verify that it works properly, then restore from your backup with the same article below to ensure that it is still working.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

    If it does not work correctly when you set up the phone as a new device, I would next seek service for your iPad:

  • Is iPad Mini with Retina display screen a gorilla glass?

    Is iPad Mini with Retina display screen a gorilla glass?

    No it's definitely not gorilla glass... I don't know if it's even hardened glass. My iPad Mini's screen broke the other day with the slightest bump. When I submitted it to Apple to be fixed (I assumed it was weakened in production or something) they said it would cost $225 to replace it. So yeah, be very very very careful with your iPads... don't let your kids touch them or anything (buy them Kindle Fires). I'm going to attempt to fix my iPad Mini's screen myself (lest I cut myself). If that doesn't work I guess I'll have to move on to Android tablets with gorilla glass...

  • IPod mini goes into pause on its own

    My iPod mini goes into pause mode on its own even though the lock is on. I have to then, unlock and press play to continue. Any idea if this is a hardware or software bug. Thanks.

    I have the same problem. It is indeed the headphone connection. Sometimes I just barely touch the jack and it pauses, very inconvenient for a mobile device!!! Is there any way to cancel this stupid function? I am old enough to turn my ipod off after use and when I forget it, I will just recharge it. Excuse my sarcasm, but I hate function that are only noticed when causing problems. For now I have to get off my bike and press play everytime the cord moves a nanometer!

  • Ipad mini going disabled on first correct attempt at passcode. Has happened three times. had to restore with iTunes each time. Is this one a dud?

    ipad mini going disabled on first correct attempt at passcode. Has happened three times. had to restore with iTunes each time. Is this one a dud?

    Does the screen respond properly to your typing?  If it handles other typing correctly, leave the passcode off and see if it wakes and works properly.
    If it has problems with recognition of typing, take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs check it out.

  • Make firefox stop going into full screen

    I upgraded to Firefox 10 on my macbook pro snow leopard and now the browser keeps going into full screen mode automatically. If I toggle it off, it just goes back to full screen in a few seconds.
    I have re-sized the screen and it still does it.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    No. Damage caused by the user is not covered by warranty. A replacement iPad mini is $219 for the 1st generation, or $249 for the iPad mini with Retina display.

  • When is the new ipad (ipad mini) going to be released???

    When is the new ipad (ipad mini) going to be released?

    The iPad Mini Retina was released in a number of countries last week (including the US and here in the UK) - does Apple have an online store in your country, and is it listed for sale there (or have a date for when it will be) ? If not then until Apple announce something we won't know if/when it might be released in your country.

  • My ipad mini 2 gets blue screen and then keep restarting over and over again problem

  • What happened to the ipad photo viewer in lock screen?

    What happened to the ipad photo viewer in lock screen? I updated to iOS 7.0 and nolonger have the slide show and music while in lock sreen. This was the most used feature of my iPad since I put it in a dock on my desk. Is there another way to do that.

    I 100% agree with ski-doug!!!
    I use iPad 50% of the time  to play music and display photos for my customers!!!
    I also have seen many a business display picture slideshows to their incoming customers without granting access to the device!
    I realize many will save personal pictures to their iPads and thus they will not want easy acces to them, and they could block this feature in previous iOS.
    Please, please, please Apple, DO NOT generalize and figure we are all the same!
    Please reuturn this feature!
    Sincerely...
    Monteh!
    PS  It would be awesome if it could display all My Pics instead of just an album!

  • My iPad 2 goes into restore mode almost dailyand can't restore it anymore error 1603

    My iPad 2 goes into restore mode almost daily. I usually just restore and sometimes use the iCloud backup. This time, my iPad cannot restore. I have gotten the error message 1603. I have the latest version of iTunes. PLEASE HELP ME

    Hello Sean,
    It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

    If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

  • Rented itunes movie to play on iPad mini 2 and black screen appears with loading then goes back to homepage? Help?

    I rented an itunes movie to watch on my iPad mini 2. Every time I press the play icon the screen goes black, says it's loading then it just goes back to title page. Help please? Thanks.

    It has fully downloaded i.e. there isn't a Downloads tab in the iTunes store app with that film listed (Downloads won't show if there are no outstanding downloads) ?
    If not then if you search for the film via the iPad's spotlight search screen (pull down the centre of the homescreen, but not from the very top of the screen) does it play from there or does that also fail to play ?
    If that also fails then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    Or you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
