IPad mini lockscreen issue, do i need to replace my iPad?

Hello,
I bought last week the iPad mini, but a few days ago I stumbled upon a lockscreen issue. When the iPad screen is off and I press the home button the screen turns on, but there is some distortion on the unlock bar, lines that quickly disappear. This happens only sometimes. I upgraded today to iOS 6.1.3 but this issue continues to occur. Please I would be grateful for any advice. Do I have to return my iPad to the seller? Or this issue is common.
Best regards

I would not say it is a common issue at all. Try this and see if it helps.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Do I need to replace my cracked screen? - ipad mini

ok, so I know there are tons of discussions about how to replace a cracked screen DIY, and how the out of warranty replacement costs works and prices, etc..
But, my questions is do I really need to replace it if it otherwise is working ok? i.e., is there something else that oculd be wrong with it, or something else that could happen later that I really need to. It doesn't really affect screen viewing, just stares at me when screen is locked and makes me angry. ipad mini in a xdoria smart cover case dropped about a foot flat on front.
both pictures below show the ipad in the same position. can't really tell crack when screen is on. a little obvsious when screen is flat on table and i'm trying to type (can see fractured light a little).
can physically feel crack on the surface.
only had it a month, can't even blame the kids, **** it!

My new IPad Mini tells me that I need Itunes 10.7 when connected to my Apple computer. When I try to up grade, I'm told that there is no newer version than what I have. IPad mini says I have system version 6.1.3. The ITunes version on the Mini is unknown.

The problem is that your Mac software is quite old. You must have a version of OS X on your Mac earlier than 10.6.8 (current is 10.8.3), so your particular version of OS X cannot support any later version of iTunes. (The current iTunes version is 11.0.2). In particular, your iTunes on your computer cannot deal with your iPad which has software that is much more current than your OS X operating system (and Mac iTunes).

Hi,
Have you tried some of these? http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1533
The first things I would try would be to press shift during start up, this will boot into safe mode.
I think you'll need to purchase a copy of Snow Leopard to re-install the OS.
There's another couple of suggestions here; http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417 where you can boot into single user mode and look at repairing disk permissions if that's the problem.
I would hope that if you could boot into safe mode or single user mode, then that may automatically rectify your current issue. If not, then I'm pretty certain that a fresh install will be the ultimate answer.

Mac mini having issues with system preferences retaining settings

Mac mini having issues with system preferences retaining settings; this was present with Mavericks and now Yosemite after installation. Did try removing com.apple.systemprefs.plist file (library/preferences folder) to trash, but couldn't find it in trash in order to empty it. Upon reboot the file is still missing. Please don't suggest reloading Yosemite, have very slow internet connection, Yosemite took 7-8 hours to D/L.
Any troubleshooting suggestions out there? thanks

Well, I'd open Font Book, it's included with OSX, & see what it says for Validate & Duplicates.
I would also like to add I am new to Apple computers and I'm doing my best to stay up to par with whats what and understanding!
No problem, we were all new to everything once, do let us know if you need more help or clatification.

Mini display to VGA weirdness - need help connecting to CRT

Hello,
I am new here and recently purchased a Mac Mini (2011, 2.3 Mhz i5 model).
I am probably in the vast minority as far as monitor choices go, as I am using a NEC FE2111SB CRT monitor. 20" viewable, looks good or better than most LCDs, so I see no need to replace it. I have the mac hooked up via a mini display to VGA adapter and it works, but has some weird problems.
When booting to Windows 7 through bootcamp, the screen starts off all white (like normal), but then goes black. Nothing. I wait a while, then my normal Windows login screen eventually pops up. So for whatever reason, the entire Windows boot screen (one with win 7 logo, etc) won't show up at all.
The boot screen does show up if hooked to a LCD. But I tested two CRTs, and the boot screen is black for both, no signal.
I was guessing that perhaps the boot screen used a weird resolution or refresh rate through Apple's EFI, so I figured I'd try several things. First was simply changing the resolution on the mac side of things. And then I noticed other weirdness. If Lion is set to high resolutions, say 1200x960, or 1600x1200 (or anything besides 1024x768), then I also lose the white (apple) screen that typically pops up when starting the machine. The white screen being what you see when it first starts, then you can press the keyboard to get the apple OS choices (if bootcamp is installed).
So basically what I have is: if I leave lion at 1024x768, I get the white apple boot screen, and it boots into lion normally.
If lion is anything besides 1024x768, I lose the white boot screen, and am loading lion blindly, just waiting for the lion login to hopefully pop up eventually.
If lion is set at 1024x768, then I do get the mac boot screen, yet bootcamp/windows is all black until windows 7 boots up. I have not found any resolution or refresh rate at all that will allow me to see the windows 7 boot screen when using bootcamp, and this adapter + CRT.
Any suggestions? I have tried two minidisplay to vga adapters, apple's and rocketfish, both had the same problems. Although I found the apple branded one to be a little more finicky than the rocketfish adapter.

Possibly too many adapters.
Signal strength dropped off when I used minidisplay-to-DVI/DVI-to-VGA/VGA-keyboard-viedo-mouse splitter, and "nothing" came through. minidisplay-to-DVI/DVI cable worked fine.

Issue with variable, need to remove characters

Hi Team,
i have one problem regarding the variable.
i have some variable for example 'MALT011000012345MTLCAST001SMT84'.
in the above variable i need to replace the value of M with say 5, value of A with 9 and so on .
like i want to repalce each character with number field.
can you please share your ideas that how can i resolve this issue in PL/SQL?

Hi,
Here's one way:
str := TRANSLATE ( str
                 , 'MA'
                 , '59'
                 );where str is any string, such as 'MALT011000012345MTLCAST001SMT84'.
The 2nd and 3rd arguments to TRANSLATE can be any length (1 or more); I just included the 2 character pairs that you mentioned. The n-th character of the 2nd argument will be replaced with the n-th character of the 3rd argument.
I hope this answers your question.
If not, please post a little sample data (that is, strings that contain 'M''s, 'A's, and/or the other characters you need to replace) and what you want all those strings turned into. Post the sample data as CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements so we can test them all in one query.

My laptop y510p has an issue for the third time and i need a replacement

my y510p laptop got an issue for three times and i need a replacement
i bought it in april/2014 and more than 2 and half months wasted for maintenance.
first time:
after few weeks i got problem with screen colors and i sent the laptop and the problem was in the motherboard and they replaced it.
second time:
i got it from maintenance center with 2 issues:
1- camera wasn't working
2- suddenlly freeze from time to time , sometime a blue screen appear after , i need to turnoff laptop from the power button to work again and it takes so long to open after that.
i sent the laptop again.
note: maintenance center claims that there wasn't any issue and even the camera that they told me that they fixed it they didn't wirte it in report. that's what i figured out when i talked with lenovo customer services
third time:
suddenly freeze from time to time again when i tried to enter bios immediatly after freeze happen i found that
harddisk wasn't appearing.
so i sent it again and i asked for replacement
maintenance replied that it's a motherboard and hardisk issues.
stayed there for 45 days and i called them for like 7 times to know what is the reply on my request and every time they ask me to wait more.
today i called them and they told me that the request of replacement is refused ...!
and they told me to post a message here if i insist on replacement.
laptop serial no:xxxxxxxxx
Mod comment: Removed Serial number for posters security.

It´s crazy how many people have the same kind of problems with this computer.. and what´s even worse is that it seems that the only option is to send it to Lenovo for a motherboard replacement. I have the same problem (mainboard dead) but unluckily for me, my y510p is out of warranty (I only used it for like 4-5 months then it was stored while I was away). Everyday I get on the internet to look for a motherboard replacement myself but I just can´t find any.. Why is that?
Also, this is a "new" computer, if I´m not wrong it was released around the end of 2013. How is it that they already discontinued it? Do they usually discontinue their products that fast? Or is it perhaps all these Y510P computers had problems from production? How can someone spend over a thousand dollars, use the computer for a few months (normal use, not even gaming..) and one day is dead and the motherboard needs replacement?? Why nobody really complains about this? I really don´t know what to do as that were all my money. I really just want to get rid of this crap and never ever buy Lenovo again and never ever recommend it to anyone. I don´t even feel secure spending the money on a motherboard replacement because it seems to me that the problem will come back. Because as I said this seems to be a problem in their production of this particular model. Again, over a thousand dollars computer and its quality is worst than the cheapest ones.. shame on Lenovo.

In testing 9 and X, "Compare Docs" we have a critical issue and really need help!

For years we have used Acrobat 7 to do PDF compares and we love it! However, the company recently advised we must upgrade to 9 and then eventually to X. In testing 9 and X, Compare Docs we have a critical issue and really need help. Our PDFs are produced by IT in a batch process and one of our main, critical functions is to compare previous PDFs to current PDFs; however, in using 9 the Compare screen automatically sets the Doc Description for our PDFs to "Scanned Doc" and does not produce any differences! If you try to change the setting to Reports --it totally shuts down both documents without running! Version 7 runs the compare of the same PDFs beautifully, pointing out all the differences, as usual! Has this every happen to anyone? Do you know what we can do to our PDFs to allow version 9 to do the compare and produce results? Why is 9 treating these non-scanned PDF docs as such? Thanks so much for any help or insight you can give me on this issue!

HT4623 My 5.1.1. 28.6 Gb IPad crashes about every 5 minutes or so it doesn't matter what I am doing, whether it is fully charged, plugged in or needing a charge. It is the first version, is it possible I need to replace it?

I have had my iPad for several years and recently it has started crashing for no reason, I am wondering if I need to replace it of if there is a fix. It doesn't matter if it has a full charge or if the charge is low. I have noticed that the battery does not hold a charge for very long now so maybe the battery is going bad? Any thoughts?

It's possible that the battery needs to be replaced. If you bought one of the original iPads, it could be close to four years old now so the battery might be bad.
Have you tried any basic troubleshooting steps? Sometimes closing Apps and resetting the device can help. Clearing Safari wouldn't be a bad idea either.
Go to Settings>Safari>Cookies and Data.
In order to close all apps, Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Apple has has a battery replacement policy that you can look into. I would make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask a Genius to look at your iPad and see if he/she can recommend something different or maybe even restore the device for you to get it back to good running condition again.

Production Issue in Barcoding - Need Help

Hi,
One of our plant reported that there is a serious production
issue and they are not able to dispatch or receive goods. We
understand that the plants are getting 'ABAP Runtime Error' in
the hand held scanner and when we looked at the last transports,
we came across with the following error:
LOAD_TYPE_VERSION_MISMATCH
Please help me what is the issue and what needs to be done to
resolve this barcoding issue.
Thanks,
Sriram

please see OSS Note 713492 & 1010590 to see if this is your problem -
cheers
nandu
====================================================
OSS Note 713492 brief
Symptom
An additional time stamp check has been installed in the internal structure administration of the ABAP VM. This is supposed to ensure improved analysis of errors that may occur as a result of changes to dictionary types at runtime. In addition to the LOAD_TYPE_VERSION_MISMATCH short dump, the TYPELOAD_NEW_VERSION short dump may now also occur.
==========================================================
OSS Note 1010590 brief
Symptom
The ABAP program terminates due to structure components that are too wide (64KB or greater). Depending on the kernel patch and Support Package status:
when you generate the program, it leads to the error DDIC_TYPES_INCONSISTENT, or
when you execute the program, it leads to the error LOAD_TYPE_VERSION_MISMATCH.

Internal HD on mac mini not well... need to boot in Single User Mode

Internal HD on mac mini not well... need to boot in Single User Mode.
I only have a Bluetooth Keyboard and Bluetooth Mouse so when I try to boot in Single User Mode (to do the /sbin/fsck hard drive fix thing) it doesn't see the Bluetooth Keyboard. What's the solution?
I also used SuperDuper to use as a boot drive but it won't unmount my internal HD. arghh..
Help

I have a corrupt drive and was unable to repair all the errors after booting from OS X installer disk and choosing Disk Utility...
I followed the "boot into single user mode" instructions hoping to complete my repair with fsck, however once I got to the localhost:/ root# prompt, my keyboard seemed to be unrecognized!
I tried 3 different USB keyboards - original Apple USB keyboard, Kensington Mac USB keyboard and an old SGI USB windows keyboard. All were able to enter the apple-S key to get into single user mode but NONE of them were able to type any commands whatsoever.....
I'm thinking my only option is to boot the mini as a target drive off my laptop and try to backup my 30GB of music and photos before wiping the drive...
2nd option might be to try Disk Warrior for $79??
Anyone else have ideas for me?
