IPad screen bottom not responding

The bottom of my iPad 2 is completely dead.  about 1.5cm of the screen is not responding to touch.  Each time i want to access that part of the screen I need to flip the iPad around.  All applications, battery, etc work just fine but it is becoming annoying having to flip the iPad over and over again with some application just to press a button or type something.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Not likely that the abce will help but it is always a good first thing to try. I really think though you'll need to have you iPad checked out by a technician. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

    Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
    Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

    Try this first - 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 buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

    i connected my iPad to iTunes.  Upon connection itunes asked for my passcode, however i cant enter it because the screen isnt responding. Please help thanks

    You may need to restore your iPad. Read this support article and make sure you have tried all of these steps first.

    Backup the iPad before restoring if that is what you need to do.

  • My ipad screen is not responding. Any ideas?

    Hi,
    I was using my ipad fine yesterday and switched on the do not disturb when I went to sleep.
    When I woke up the screen wont do anything. It unlocks when I open my leather cover but the touch screen isnt doing anything. Its fully updated on itunes.
    Any ideas on how to fix it? I have tried switching it off but not even the slider works.
    Thanks for reading

    See if this will fix it.
    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.

  • HT201412 iPad screen does not respond, even after several resets (both with iTunes and at the Apple Store). Apple is also unresponsive to a hardware problem once the product warranty period has expired. Does anyone have a suggestion?

    It is getting very frustrating to have Apple products.
    Constant software upgrades and product releases seems to be the sole focus of Apple.
    Apple does not offer hardware repair services. I can understand this policy when products do not fail. But it seems that this is not the case with Apple, as it becomes frequent that products fail just after the warranty period.
    New software releases also destroyed the value of a "GREAT EXPERIENCE". YouTube, Google Maps, ... all features that are deleted with the latest IOS and that Apple could not properly replace.
    It seems that Apple products are not 'consummable' products but 'disposable' products.
    Let's see how robust SAMSUNG tablets are

    Apple has hardware repair services, on repairable hardware. Apple just doesn't repair iPads, from day one Apple has always replaced iPads, either under warranty or as a reduced cost out-of-warranty purchase.
    The rest of your post is just a rant. Enjoy your Samsung products.

  • My ipad is locked and it tells me to update my icloud but the screen is not responding to my touch?

    How do I get my screen unlocked so that I can update my ipad.  The screen is not responding to my touch, instead it is telling me... " This ipad hasnt been backed up in  12 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked and connnected to wi-fi".  Does this mean that I cant use this untill it is all done backing everything up? And how do I begin to use it since it says its locked?

    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 - let go of the buttons.
    After it boots up again, you will be able to use the iPad. You should backup the iPad like the message is telling you to do.

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • My apple iPad touch screen is not responding

    My apple ipad touch screen is not responding it was working since few hours then that happened. There is no a single point on the responds to touch but everything is working on the welcome screen, detects  the Wi-Fi ... etc.
    First thing I did was passing on my local agent store. They did a soft reset what caused lose all data and apps (not a problem) but they didn't fix and asked to visit the support branch .. now i can't use the "Siri trick" and I think it's not helpful after resetting my device.
    I tried removing the screen protector but still no hope. Turned off it and cleaned the screen  but didn't help!!
    Is There another way? Any expected scenarios/time when I visit the repair branch in Egypt?
    I've upgraded to latest (7.12) 2 or 3 weeks ago

    Thanks ..
    I've mentioned that I did that now I'm in another stage, The iPad at the main reseller support department and they told me now that they will give me another in return .... the strange thing I have heard was that I have to wait 4 weeks until they get me one from Apple .. I'm i Egypt
