IPad mini screen problems

A section of my brand new iPad minis screen keeps going blank, black or extremely pixelated though the screen sensor still works in that area. It used to come and go but currently it seems to be permanent. What to do????

Doesn't matter where you bought it, it's still covered by Apple's 1-year warranty.
Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • IPad mini screen problem

    A small part of my iPad Mini screen is unresponsive. that  part is like a horizontal strip ran acrosa my iPad. sometimes it magically heal itself but most of the time it is unresponsive.

    The only thing I can thing of remotely similar is in Guided Access where you can turn off parts of the screen. Next time it happens try triple cloicking the home button to turn Guided Access off. If triple clicking doesn't help it sounds like time for a visit to the Genius Bar at the Apple Store.

  • Yet another iPad mini screen problem

    I have a screen issue with my iPad Mini WiFi, i searched the forums but I couldn’t find anything related to my problem.
    There are times when I unlock the device (manually or with the smart cover) which the screen gets messed up at the left side only, kinda scrambled and distorted almost like when you try to switch a higher resolution to a monitor and it doesn’t supported.
    I don’t know how else to explain it so i made a picture using Photoshop since i can't take a picture: http://i43.tinypic.com/ddkpqr.jpg
    When this occurs it goes away after 1 second but it’s happening more and more often now. Could be this a hardware problem?

    To answer my question, i found this topic that looks a lot like my problem only in smaller scale: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2497498?start=0&tstart=0. Looks like a hardware problem after all

  • How do i fix a scratch on iPad mini screen?

    IS there any product I can buy to repair a small scratch on my iPad mini screen?

    You can either put a screen protector over it and ignore it, pay the $219+ for an out of warranty replacement or if you have apple care plus, cash in one of your $49 dollar accidental damage events and get a replacement.

  • My ipad mini screen is broken

    I lent on my ipad mini screen in the bottom corner and now there are loads of vertical and horizontal lines on the screen which block the view. Would this be an LCD replacement or external glass replacement. Does anyone have any experience of this and how did they fix the ipad.

    It will cost you approximately US$250.00 to US$300.00
    Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.

  • My ipad mini screen will not slide to unlock

    My IPad mini screen will not unlock. It was fine one minute and the next, I couldn't slide it to unlock it.

    Does anything happen when you touch the screen, the slider doesn't get a box around it (which would indicate VoiceOver being 'on') ?
    If not then have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Ipad mini screen keeps moving around and switching screens as though someone else is using it? any ideas what is going on?

    Ipad mini screen keeps moving around as though someone else is fiddling with it while I am using it. Any ideas what is goi g on?

    Hi Deeveeay,
    Try resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). When the Home screen redisplays, see if the issue has resolved itself.

  • Why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

    why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

    My Ipad 3 is the same, it must be a design fault cuz I dropped a pound coin on my ipad screen and it shattered and every other week there's a new dent or scratch, though I wouldn't say I'm overly rough with it. I use it a lot, like most do, so accidents will happen and Apple hav to allow for that. I deffently wouldn't say that they are worth the money for the amount of trouble they cause, they r great devices, just far too delicate and expensive! 

  • My iPad mini screen won't rotate

    Why my ipad min screen won't rotate.

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, swipe up from the bottom to get to the control center. Look for the lock icon in the row of icons at the top. It will be the last one on the right. Check that to see if the screen is locked.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    Reset 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 - let go of the button

  • My ipad mini screen is broken and i still have the service coverage. Will they fix it for me ?

    My ipad mini screen is broken. I bought it in Orlando in Febuary and when i last checked my status, my service coverage is still active but my technical support is not does it mean if i bring it in december they will be able to fix the screen for me or will i have to ay for the fix ?

    Accidental damage is not covered by the warranty unless you have Apple Care+ which allows for two incidents ofa ccidental damage and there is a $49 copay for each incident. You do not have Apple Care+ so this would not be covered for you.
    If you are saying that the screen broke on its own, you would have to convince Apple that it happened that way.
    Apple offers an out of warranty iPad replacement with a refurbished device and the cost starts at $249.00 in the U.S. for an iPad 1. Apple does not repair iPads at this time, they offer these replacement devices. You can read more about it here.
