Ipad Screen Black but can still hear locking sounds etc.

i just got my ipad today,and i was playing a game then right in the middle of it the screen goes black but looks like its shut down ive tried everything to get it to come on an nothing. i dont know if the screen has went out or what. any suggestions on how to fix this problem? and i purchased it somewhere they don't take returns. so please someone help.

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

    There are no warranty papers, never have been for iPhones.
    Take the device to Apple, an Out of Warranty replacement is $229.
    Warranty does not and has never covered damage.  The device has suffered damage (cracked screen).

    dont you know your apple ID password ?
    IF you know that, try restart your iPhone if it doesnt work try restoring your device. If it doesnt work again, you have hardware problem. Try changing your screen.

  • I cannot view clips on the viewer window - as it appears black, However, I can still hear the sounds in the background.

    Hello!
    I cannot view any of the clips (not from event browser nor from timeline) on the viewer window - as it appears black/or blank/ or static ! However, I can still hear the sounds in the background.
    P.S I have chosen the filter: ALL
    Please help me with that I'm getting desperate ! I need to finish a project within one week :(
    A million thanks in advance

    Hi F. Carl
    The clip is intact and it has video and audio.
    I have worked on it before and all was fine until I lost the work when it got frozen!
    The issue is:
    I have a (MOV.) ready clip that I wanted to edit a bit, hence I have imported the clip (import media) and whenever I try to work on it, the black screen prohibits me from doing anything.
    Any ideas please ... It's really strange !

  • Closed website but can still hear the video feed.

    any idea what could be wrong? I opened QVC and watched something. I closed the web browser but I can still hear the program, its driving me nuts. How do I make it stop?
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    When in doubt, reboot!  ;-)
    Most glitches can be solved this way.
    Press and hold both the Power switch and center button for at least 15 seconds.  This will restart the device.

  • I just updated my Firefox, and now whenever I use Youtube, I only see black screens where the video should be, but I can still hear the sounds; what gives?

    The Youtube pages load as normal, but as stated above, the player contains only a black screen, and the progress bar moves as usual when playing the clip, but I can only hear, and not see, the actual video.
    Firefox version: 3.6.14
    Windows Vista

    Thanks so much for your reply fanboy20. 
    Yes, just made sure of that.  I do have the latest version of Flash player.  But I have just staggered upon the answer.  Chalk it up to being a newbi.  I was not putting my apple tv to sleep and it would not allow me to see
    you tube on my computer while it was still operating on my TV.  When I realized that, I put the apple tv to sleep and bingo, my computer runs you tube fine.   Thanks again for your response.

  • I dropped my iphone 4S and the screen is black. i can still hear the key sound but i can't see a thing.

    My iphone 4s was dropped and i cant see a thing but still can hear the sound of the keys...

    I would try restarting
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for phone to restart (no data will be lost).
    If that doesnt do it take the phone to an apple store and have it assessed

  • Blank screen, can still hear the sound though.

    Hey everyone, i took great care of my ipod which i got a while back, after another one had water spilled all over it and died. anyways i went to go listen to my ipod and had a blank screen all of a sudden as if it was really low on battery or something, but i could still hear the music. I checked my serial number and plugged it in on the website, and it said that i am not under warranty. any suggestions? or answers? thanks a lot !

    Are you saying that your iPad's screen is black even though you can hear Siri when you activate her?  Then ...
    first try a reset:
    Hold both the Home button and the Power button down for 10+ seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Let go promptly when it appears, wait 30+ seconds for your iPad to restart.  No information or settings will be lost.
    Now try giving your iPad a friendly thump on the back.
    Place the iPad face down on a bed or your knee and try gently hit it right on the Apple logo on the back of your iPad.  If that doesn't work try thumping it in various places on the back including the corners, and with increasing intensity.

  • Screen went black, but it still vibrates and sound.

    I dropped my iphone 4, it automatically went black and I thought it turned off, but I pressed the lock button and it sounded like I locked it, if I press the screen I can hear the sound of buttons when you enter your passcode and all. But the screen is black.
    I tried holding both buttons to reset it, but wont work at all.

    You display has been nudged out of place or broken. You need service on the phone.

  • Make iMac Screen black but computer still on

    Hello,
    I am trying to make it look like my computer is off for about a week, but it is still really on. It is hard to explain why I need to do so. If I made a solid black image fullscreen for about a week, will that damage the screen? Is there another way to make it so my screen is black but the computer is still on? Thank you for any advice!

  • Velocity on zero but can still hear note?? help

    Hi all
    I know this is a novice question but i cant get my midi notes volume to go really low or even silent using velocity. Im using Kontakt sampler.
    I turn the velocity down to zero and i can clearly still hear the note being played. When i used halion, you turned the velocity knob up to max to acheive this. I cant seem to find a velocity knob in Kontakt to do this.
    Is it a setting inside Logic that i should be changing?
    Thanks
    digi

    Turn the modulation amount for velocity (a little slider underneath the volume knob) to 100%. It's set to something like 39% by default. Next time check the NI Kontakt forum.
