Ipad2 screen blank after ios 8 upgrade

Screen blank, used the home and off button, still not working, a faint light comes on and nothing else
- forced to reset factory settings, all data lost, a very upset daughter! all minecraft worlds created now gone!
seems to be acknowledged by itunes but just get screen on ipad to work any ideas?

Here's the list of the most annoying issues that affect me since updating my iPad 2 64GB w/Cellular iPad to IOS 8:
EXTREMELY SLOW - When opening apps, or switching between them - We are talking just the built-in apps. Mail, Safari, Settings....
Extremely slow Wi-Fi AND broadband. The Wi-Fi is the worst though. Horrible. Page load times are 2 to 4x slower than my wife's iPad.
Battery life reduced by at least 25%. Used to make it all day long, now I am having to plug it in.
Heat - It is working so hard that the processor is heating up. That can't be healthy for it, and surely the majority of the power issues stem from this.
Copy/Paste not functioning correctly between browser windows. Oh this is frustrating. I just want to paste the URL of one website I am on to Facebook, for instance. Even though I COPY, it's pasting in info I clipped a earlier in the day to one browser tab, but if I open another one, it will paste the correct information. You never know what you are going to get.
Cannot post a photo to facebook by hitting the camera icon when leaving a reply or making a post (using web browser version)... It starts the upload, then just stops. I *CAN* go to photos, then SHARE it to facebook, but that doesn't allow me to post a photo along with a reply.
Multiple app crashes per day. This I can deal with. It's nothing new, it's just more frequent. Safari and Mail seem to be the major culprits. It wouldn't be so bad except it takes 2-4 seconds to reopen the crashed app. Sometimes as much as 10 seconds.
And that's just the annoying ones....

  • HT201263 My apple Ipad2 display blank after I update it to ios 7!!!

    My apple Ipad2 display blank after I update it to ios 7, but i still can hear the aplication and all sound from the ipad. How can i fix this... even i already do the restore process but the screen still blank and only sound from it remain like normal.

    I read another thread where people gently tapped the back of the iPad against their knee and it came back on. Someone else reported that dropping on to a carpeted surface from a lowish height corrected it. Others have said that twisting it gently has brought the screen back. You will have to try these at your own risk and be very, very careful.

  • IPAD Mini Locked after iOS upgrade, tried reset on iPAD did not work, plugged in and device not appearing in iTUNEs for reset/restore

    PAD Mini Locked after iOS upgrade, tried reset on iPAD did not work, plugged in and device not appearing in iTUNEs for reset/restore.  Just get an Apple Logo then a flashing blue screen as if it is caught booting up.   This has happened twice before and iTunes restore fixed it.  But this time device not appearing in iTunes.
    Running iTunes for PC.  But as stated restore has worked before!  Any help greatly appreciated!!

    Place the device in DFU mode and let iTunes restore the device to factory condition.

    Thanks for your quick response. I've tried everything you suggested and get only temporary fixes. Sometimes for a day or two, sometimes only until I use Safari for the first time. It's annoying and probably effects battery life between charges.
    You would think that it must have some effect on the battery, but oddly enough, the update to iOS 8 actually helped my battery life, in spite of all of these hinky little issues that are taking place. In my experience, the activity icon is not affecting the battery in a negative way.
    Another issue with IOS 8.1 that you may have seen is the loss of icon pictures on home pages. Again it seems to be Safari related, since app icons found in the App Store are not affected, only web based icons you personally put on home pages. I get what I call a test screen similar to what you used to get on old tv sets on every one of my personal icons.
    I know exactly what you mean. I got that as well. On a few of them, when I opened the websites using the generic test screen icons and then closed them, they changed back to the way that they should look. For the ones that did not change, I recreated the home screen shortcuts and deleted the generic looking ones - the test screen icons.
    And don't get me started on iBooks.
    For the very limited use that I make of the iBooks app, i haven't noticed any problems, but I rarely use the app. I don't read books on the iPad other than a few user guides and if they are pdf guides, they reside in more reliable and feature rich pdf apps on my iOS device.
    I wish that I had the fix for the spinning activity icon, but everything that I try, is temporary at best. IMO, this is the buggiest iOS update that I have seen, and I have been using iOS devices since iOS 3 on my first iPad. I realize that there are plenty of people that are not experiencing issues, but I have seen a number of weird things that I wish I could fix. None of my problems are major, but they are annoying.

    All resolved at last
    Deleted the SMTP setting
    Recreated the SMTP using the same settings

    No logic - as usual - just a bug!

  • I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
    According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
    DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
    As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
    I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view.

  • Faces in Photos showed up blank after the upgrades

    Faces in Photos showed up blank after the upgrades (no labeled faces at all) with the suggested faces mostly full of 100's of blank white circles. I used to have about 50 faces labeled with about 2500 photos. Now I have no labeled faces on top of page (completely blank) and only 9 face suggestions on the bottom. Photos also runs very slowly compared to iPhoto. I tried re-installing and re-upgrading and have gotten the same results. I'm using a Mac Pro (2009), OS 10.10.3, 2.66 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 16 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC, 7 GB storage. Any help will be appreciated and even if I have to delete the Face's database and start all over, where do I find that database or file to delete?

    1. Copy and paste is a very good way of moving chunks of text around, however, it's not really good for moving a Library containing many thousands of files. Drag and Drop is rather more reliable.
    it comes up with a black circle and a "!" image.
    2. The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • No valid license found after IOS upgrade on C3750x switch

    HI,
    Two switches below are working fine as a stack with IOS c3750e-universalk9-mz.122-55.SE5.bin & ipbase license.
    Switch#1 (Master, WS-C3750X-24P-S)
    Switch#2 (Member, WS-C3750X-24P-S)
    After IOS Upgrade to c3750e-universalk9-mz.150-2.SE7.bin, The stack was broken. Switch#2 didn’t recognise valid ipbase license with new IOS and came up with lanbase license instead. Therefore stack cannot be composed due to license mismatch between Switch#1 (ipbase) and switch#2(lanbase).
    I’m wondering why Switch#2 didn’t recognise ipbase license with new IOS even though IPASE is running well with previous IOS.
    Here is excerpt from “show version” with 15.x image on Switch#2.
    License Level: lanbase
    License Type: Default. No valid license found.
    Next reload license Level: lanbase
    Here is excerpt from “show version” with 12.x image on Switch Stack.
    License Level: ipbase
    License Type: Permanent
    Next reload license Level: ipbase
    Thanks
    Jeong

    Thanks guys,
    I have fixed the issue by configuring  'license boot level ipbase' on the member switch#2. The switch recognised IPBASE license well and joined the stack successfully.

  • Computer HP Envy 17 Notebook PC - screen blank after bios Version F.53 update

    Computer HP Envy 17 Notebook PC -  screen blank after bios Version F.53 update
    computer cannot enter BIOS but switches on and screen remains blank.
    The power and wifi indicator shows.
    Tried removing CMOS battery with no change
    Tried removing battery, pressing on button for 40 minutes then starting again still no change

    Hi farai, welcome to the HP Forums. If your computer appears to be powering on, but you cannot see the screen it may be a recoverable situation.
    This document will help you diagnose the issue, it looks like you have already done Step 1 (hard reset):
    Computer Starts but Screen Remains Blank (Windows 8)
    If you get to Step 3, the options listed won't work since you indicated you cannot get into your BIOS. In place of Step 3 in that document, you can try to restore your BIOS using this method: Restoring the BIOS
    If you get to the end, it says to call HP. If so, it is most likely a hardware issue and you should call support for more options: HP Technical Support, North America 1-800-474-6836. For all other regions click here.
    I hope this helps. If you need any more information, let me know.

  • IPAD2 very slow after IOS 8 upgrade

    After IOS 8 upgrade many aplications ( Safari, Facebook, etc) load  very, very slow (comparing with 7 version) , with a significant delay of more than 10 seconds...
    Who can I solve this problem? Any workaround?

    Apple should better test the software before delivering.

  • Screen flickering after iOS 6.1 update and some apps crashing frequently on my iPhone 4 .. I didn't have this in 6.0.1 back when people complained about it

    hello, I had no keyboard flickering issues back when my iPhone 4 was on iOS 6.0.1 then I updated to 6.1 yesterday and now I have apps crashing frequently and keyboard flickering? anyone else having the same issue after the update? any known solution?

    I'm having the same issue on my iPhone 4 since yesterday when I updated to iOS 6.1 from 5.1.1.
    After about an hour after the upgrade, it crashed/rebooted itself and went completely white/grey screen with a brighter white line in the middle. My power/sleep button was broke already, so I couldn't do anything on it. I left it to drain the battery for about 6 hours.  During that time, the edges around the white/grey screen became darker and darker like burn-in effect. After it ran out of the battery, I connected the phone to the PC through USB and iTunes let me restore it to iOS 6.1 firmware I downloaded before.
    The restore was successful, but the entire screen keeps flickering rapidly, not just a part of the screen.
    Is it hardware or software related issue?? Any idea?

  • IPad 2 Does not retain names and passwords after iOS-upgrade  to 8.0.2

    After the last series of iOS upgrades (device current status is 8.0.2 , latest available) the iPad2-16G WIFI version, does not retain any names and passwords anymore. Function (Safari) is enabled.
    Re-booting, clearing memory etc did not solve anything).
    Is this a known version 8.0 bug or .......?

    Make sure "Private Browsing" is disabled.

    I have restored from iTunes, with and without SIM... Just 1 second I see the my carrier than lost again
    By the way to be sure about it, I have checked my and friend's SIM with iPhone 4 which is updated with
    iOS 5.0.1 and all the SIM worked perfectly on phone...
    I think we are not alone but we are the only having problem as iPad2 user...since there is no feedback
    From others...
