IPad screen damage
I found what looks to be a minor chip near the front camera of my ipad air. I can see it if the sun is shining on the iPad but I don't see it as easily otherwise. It's not a crack, it looks more like something that should go away with a microfiber cloth but isn't going away. Would AppleCare cover something like that?
No. Apple care will not cover accidental damage, which is what that will be classified. If you have apple care plus, then it will be covered with the service fee.
What you could qualify for is an out of warranty replacement, and hte fee for that starts at 249 and goes up depending on your model.

iPad Screen Damage Repair - Apple Support -
Hi, I've heard and read that diaplaying static images could cause damage a screen, and that's my concern
Hi, Recently got an iPad 2 mainly to watch netflix and also bought an Apple Digital AV adapter today so I can watch it on my TV.
The thing is that if I start to playback a movie with the Digital AV pluged in, the movie displays in the tv and a static red Netflix logo is displayed on the ipad.
And as far as I saw, that image won't go away. And he ipad will stop the playback if it gets locked.
Will my iPad screen get damaged by using the netflix app and the digital AV adapter?
Thanks so much in advance.It will cost you approximately US$219.00 to US$299.00 depending on the model.
Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.

My iPad screen is extremely damaged, I need to wipe iPad clean but can't see the screen. Can I control iPad settings through my pc/iTunes?
You can try an alternative.
This is the quickest thing that came to mind, but if you want to wipe it with no care of the data on the device at all:
Place device in recovery mode (turn off device > hold home button + plug in to iTunes (WHILE HOLDING BUTTON)).
iTunes will give you an error saying it detected a device in recovery mode, you need to restore to use device. Restoring device is a factory reset. AKA a wipe of the device

Protecting cracked ipad screen from further damage with protector
Howdy.... I have an ipad 2. The screen recently developed a spider web-type crack. I honestly have no idea how it happened. I did not drop it. I've been on a number of plane trips recently and noticed it after checking into a hotel. It was in my cabin luggage. Possibly someone dumped something on it in the overhead bin, or it got tossed around??
Anyway, it does still seem to function completely fine. Towards the edge of the screen on one side there is about 1 mm of depression/displacement of the sides of the fracture. Otherwise the cracks are non-displaced. I have no problem using it.
I am in a country with no apple stores. I could submit to an authorized repair place and wait for it to be repaired. However, I am anticipating ipad 3 coming out soon and I am wondering about the option of simply not fixing the screen at all.
I bought an ipad screen protector and put it on the screen under the theory that this might inhibit cracks from propagating further. Anyone have any insight or ideas about this? What happens when you use a cracked ipad screen over time? Does it inevitably get worse?
I am wondering if I can just use it as-is with the screen protector until ipad 3 comes out. The cracks are actually hard to notice during actual use, with the screen on.The glass is laminated structure, the top layer is oleophobic plastic very thin, then there is the sensor and finally the glass. Same for ipad and iphone. See below.
If it works, keep going. Since you plan to buy a new one anyway. A case of 'its broken, but no need to fix it' ! -
My ipad screen has gone black and I don't know what to do the screen still works and I can still unlock it and I can still type. But I don't know what to do can anyone help me it will be much appreciated
If the reset doesn't do it then it's possible that the backlight or another part of your screen has broken. Unfortunately it's not really user servicible. I'd make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out. If your device is still under warranty and they don't determine that the damage was the result of 'abuse or neglect' (their words) then it could be a free replacement.
I'd just do a backup before you take it in, just in case. -

How much to replace an ipad screen?
Hi
How much do Apple charge to replace an ipad screen and is it covered under warranty?
ThanksIt will cost you approximately US$219.00 to US$299.00 depending on the model.
Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.
If you have purchased AppleCare+ when you bought the device, you would be entitled to up to two replacements over a 2 year period for $49 each.
Note: Accidental damage is not covered by warranty -
My ipad screen broke today whilst it was in a case and in my bag the thing is it fell from about ankle height and about 45% is cracked its still usable though and i use it every day and its really important but i have no money and its not insured will i have to pay a ridiculous amount of money to fix it? :(
Unless this is an iPad 3 with Apple Care +, the Apple warranty does not cover accidental damage. Apple will sell you a new iPad at a reduced rate, depending on the model. It can cost as much as US$400+.
Or if you are not concerned about having your Apple warranty you can get a 3rd party repair shop to fix it for much less than the replacement cost.

IPad Screen Issue..."Burnt In Bar"
Well, after owning & using my iPad since November, and LOVING IT, I have noticed - all of the sudden - a one-inch-wide bluish 'bar' that is VERY subtle on the left side of the screen, which runs the entire long length of the unit.
VERY disappointing, as I am sure you can appreciate.
I purchased the unit at Best-Buy, with an extended warranty, as there are no close Apple retail stores in my area.
A) Anyone else experience this issue?
II) Anything I can do about it?
3) Recommendations?
How do I back up my Kindle purchases? I do not see my (several) books anywhere.
THANKS!
VR/S in CTAs others have noted, it sounds like a hardware fault in the screen, and as long as it's not intermittent and there's no physical damage to the iPad, you shouldn't have any problem getting a replacement.
I do want to clear up something regarding your subject line, though, in case others see this post: you refer to "burn in," which is a term that was used in the days of CRT monitors to refer to an image that becomes permanent with time on a monitor because of heavy use. Some older Macs, for example, have a ghosted image of the Mac OS menu bar atop their CRT screen. Plasma TVs can also be affected.
I've seen some posts, especially in App Store reviews, that claim their iPad screen suffers from burn-in. This is not the case. LCD screens are practically incapable of burn-in, and certainly not within the timeframe that the iPad has been in existence. A hardware fault can cause similar symptoms, but they're unrelated to "burn-in," and they're certainly not caused by specific apps, as others elsewhere claim.
That is all. :^> -
Hi, my ipad screen broke this morning. It's hasn't cracked, and has always been fine before, but this morning it just went off, then when I pressed the lock button the screen light up slightly, but not the way it should have, sort of a grey colour. After a few taps and tricks on the screen it light up, but it was really fuzzy, a mixture of white, pink and other colours. I can faintly see my background (the apple logo), but after a few seconds it just goes off again. I've looked through some forums but haven't found an answer. I want to try and keep away from the 'go and get it fixed at a shop' route. As all the do is over charge people. Any help is welcomed. Thank you!
You're down to getting it fixed. It sounds like something is physically broken inside.
If your device is still under warranty they MIGHT consider it a manufacturer's defect. If they do, then they'll replace it with a refurbished replacement. If they consider it accidental damage, they might offer you the option of an out of warranty replacement. Which starts at 249 and goes up (if your device is a 64 gig one, it will be more expensive than 249)
You can try unauthorized repair places. If you use them, they might be cheaper, but it's use at your own risk and you will void your warranty (course, if it's expired, doesn't matter)
