IPad wont boot after screen replaced

Just replaced the screen on my sons iPad 4 and now it wont boot...
any suggestions please?
Thanks

Who did the replacement? If the screen was replaced due to a drop, there may be some internal damage or loose connection.
Some iPad users have been able to revive their dropped iPad. Turn the iPad over and give it a HARD SLAP on the back. May take several slaps.

Try this  - 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.) No data/files will be erased.

  • Pismo won't boot after screen replacement?

    I just replaced the screen on one of my Pismos with the iFixit guide. Now, when I hit the power button, I get the boot chime and I hear the fan whir, but that's it. No hard drive noises and nothing on the screen. It won't boot off another Pismo in TDM and the iBook doesn't see it if I try to put it in TDM. I've tried reseating the processor and the hard drive. Anyone got any idea what I did wrong? This was my first computer surgery, I really don't want to lose my patient...

    pikacane:
    I've tried reseating the processor
    I suggest trying it again as it is the most frequent cause of the kind of non-startup you describe. With the keyboard and shield removed, remove the RAM module in the upper slot. Lift off the processor card. Replace processor card and press down with thumb(s) on the side toward palm-rest until you feel/hear the card snap into place. Press hard, don't be shy, you won't break it.
    If you are satisfied you have the processor card is properly seated and it still won't startup, please post back and let us know.

  • How to fix white screen of death on iPod 4g after screen replacement?

    How to fix white screen of death on iPod 4g after screen replacement?

    I would try to reset it before anything else.  To do this press and hold the home and power buttons until the the white screen shows the apple logo (~ 15 secs.).
    If this does not work then more than likely the LCD is damaged.
    btw- The white screen is common after repairs.  The reset fix works 90% of the time.

  • IPad Glitch After Screen Replacement

    I had my iPad screen replaced and just got it back today. It turns on okay and is useable... a little. It refuses to let me open certain apps.(ex. App Store) When i type, sometime the ipad wont let me press certain letters or links. I have tried turning the ipad off completely and have reset my settings. Nothing seems to work. I can't tell if my LCD has been damaged or not conected correctly. I use this iPad for school so i need help ASAP.

    If you have Restored it both from your backup and as a new device and it still does not work then it is indeed a hardware issue. It could be a defective salvaged screen/digitizer or the logic board.

  • What do I do if my iPod touch 8g 4g has a white screen after screen replacement ? I tried holding down the volume up button, the power button, and the home button all at the same time but my screen just went black and it wont turn on.

    it just wont turn on after repair on the screen

    If it never worked after the screen replacement then it would appear that you have a hardware problem either caused by the repair or the problem that lead to the screen replacement.

  • Macbook air will not boot 10.5.7 after screen replacement

    Hello
    Following screen replacement on original macbook air I can only take system to 10.5.6.  Will not update to 10.5.7 or 10.6.
    Any suggestions?
    GeorgeV

    BTW, I see the threads on the Thunderbolt update kernel panics.  I was kind of hoping Apple resolved the problem since I thought they had pulled the update.  Anyway, I do not *think* I am getting a Kernel panic as the boot does not even get as far as the Apple logo.  It just sits on the gray screen and does nothing.

  • Touch screen wont boot after outage

    Hello, My Home touch screen will not boot after outage. It was working on backup. Outage lasted 4 hours.Just a black screen, power indicator light is not on while plugged in. thanksJOhn

    If you undo the stand and remove the battery cover you can access the battery and remove it (after removing the power). Then put everything back the way your found it and plug in the touchscreen it will be a full power reset. If it still donesn't work you will need a tech to look at it. You might need a small screw driver to get the stand and battery cover off the touch screen.

  • Wifi doesn't work after screen replacement

    My husband was gracious enough to replace the screen on my ipad 2. However, now, I can't connect to wifi unless I'm right next to the router.The antenna needs alot of signal to see any network. He verified the antenna isn't broken. Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Wi-Fi not working a few months after screen replacement.

    Hi all,
    Recently bought a used iPhone, and the previous (original) owner had the screen replaced after dropping it. Apparently, the phone was working absolutely perfect after the screen was replaced, and then a few months after, the wi-fi stopped working. Everything else in the phone is working perfectly fine.
    I'm guessing this is probably just a loose connection or something, but could someone give me a possible cause?
    Thanks!

    My wife had the same problem with iPad 2 after upgrade to 6.0. Don't know if it was important but she had NOT upgraded to iTunes 10.7. I ended up doing a DFU restore and then restored software (still IOS 6.0) and then a iCloud restore and everything was fine with the WiFi . Restoring all music and photos now.

  • Imac wont boot after this last update

    I downloaded an update (automatically through software update). After it installed it told me to wait for computer to restart and then hold power button until the long tone, then it should be done. I did that with no problem.
    Ever since then though it wont boot regularly. It wither sits at grey screen forever OR gives me the prohibit sign. The only way to get it to work it to hold that power button until the long tone again.
    Any idea whats wrong and how i fix it??
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    The long tone is an indication that a firmware update is installing. Do you get a progress bar at the bottom of you screen after letting the power button go?
    Have you reset the PRAM? (cmdalt+PR when you restart the machine)
    Also repair permissions when the machine is up and running.

    Please help. Thanks in advance.

    Chances are, the board is bricked.
