IPad's screen turned pink and flashing

All of a sudden, my iPad's screen turned pink. Tried resetting but did not help. The screen is now red/pink-ish and flashing. I, of course, did not drop it or anything like that.
Is this a hardware problem? is it fixable by a user?

I just had mine replaced and it is betterr than the original.
Holds the 3G signal better.
i bought one as soon as they came out, so there is probably a bit of a higher failure rate for the first models.
You are basically getting a new one and you have a year from the purchase to extend the warranty.
I would not give up my Ipad.
I look at laptops now and they seems like dinosaurs.

  • Screen turns pink and flickers

    Hi everyone,
    I've got a little problem:
    My screen randomly turns pinks and then starts flickering and then a few moments later it stops for a few minutes and then begins the process again.  I have no idea how it began. I have a MacBook Pro 10.6.8.
    It would be great if anyone knew how to solve this answer.
    With regards,
    Jean-Pierre

    Apple Hardware Test doesn't catch everything, so even if it doesn't find a problem, you could have one.

  • After download of os 8.2 screen turned pink and blue and flickers

    After downloading os 8.2 background screen turned to pink and blue and flickers.    resetting ipad2 does not solve problem.

    Hey there Harold499,
    I understand that you are experiencing some issues with your iPad screen. I have an article for you that will help you troubleshoot this issue a little further:
    If you see a solid color screen (black, white or blue)
    Plug in your device to a power source. If you see the low-battery screen when you plug in, let your device charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad) before using it.
    Reset your device while it's plugged in.
    If resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
    Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203039
    Since you have already reset the iPad, I would recommend that you start by restoring the iPad, then proceed from there. Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • Screen turned pink and white and added a passcode by itself

    In the morning I was using my iPad 3rd generation and left it in my bag for the rest of the day then I took it out, I switched it on, and it was all purplish pink and white. In the beginning, the touchscreen worked, even though I coudn't see what I was doing. Then there were tiny stripes where i could see but they were inverted colors! Later on, it added a passcode by itself since i saw through the stripes. I tried hitting it on the back and restarting it but it wouldn't work! By the way, I use an Apple Smart cover and my friend said it could've been from the manet. PLEASE HELP!!!

  • HP Pavilion - screen turning pink and pixellated

    I purchased my comptuer a couple of weeks ago.  Once in a while the computer will turn pinkish and will become very pixellated.  It was worse when I first got it, but it still happens now and again.  Any ideas?  

    It needs to be sent in for repair work. It is likely a fault in the display electronics such as a loose cable or bad display controller. 

  • My acer laptop turned screen into pink and with vertical lines...what's wrong

    Hi everyone!I need your help. I bought my acer laptop 7 months ago. I was browsing online then suddenly the screen turned pink and it got some vertical lines now. I tried to removed the battery and pressed the power button for a minute but still the screen is pink when i turned it on. I've noticed the vertical lines are moving every 5 munites.  Please help...im stressed with this laptop! last month acer replaced the Hard drive because it went very slow and then now another problem arise. 

    i already tried to move or tilt the screen and even press it but still the screen is pink... Yes perhaps I need to bring this again at the service center  Thanks!

  • My ipad will not turn on and is charged, i have also tried a reset and the screen flashes and then goes black.

    My ipad will not turn on and is charged.  I have also tried to reset my ipad by holding in the off/on button and the home button at the same time , but it did not work.  The screen flickered a couple times and then went black.  Is there anything else I can try?

    Hi,
    Does anything appear on the screen at all, e.g: Apple Logo etc?

  • Hi, I accidentally spilled water on my Mac Air on the very right side of the keyboard. After a few minutes, the screen turned white and a gray folder with a question mark came up and kept flashing. THEN IT DIED HELP.

    After the screen turned white and the folder popped up, it just kept flashing. After a few minutes the screen just turned white completely and I could hear the noise of the drive. It just sat there still with the noise for a good few hours until the battery died and then my mac just shut down completely. I tried to see if the computer could charge, and it does charge. I just can not turn the computer on no matter what. It is dead. It might be the logic board or the drive...I'm hoping it won't cost me a new computer because I just got this 5 months ago....

    Do not attempt to charge as that will only make the damage worse.  You need to take the MacBook Air to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians check and see what repair work is necessary.  It only takes a very small amount of liquid to cause short circuits and damage.

    Try doing a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.

    My iPhone 5 constanlty reboots, sometimes the screen turns blue and the unit reboots and sometimes it just shuts down.  Any Suggestions?

    I am having the same problem with my ipad air but mine is so severe that it's just rebooting non stop. I guess the battery will die eventually but it has rendered the device useless. I guess I will be taking it back to apple. Very disappointed. Never had an apple product in 20yrs have such a severe problem.
