My Apple iPad air screen stops responding, particularly in safari

My brand new IPad Air (64Gb) is roving to be less than satisfactory- I have had to hard reset it several times due to non response, usually in Safari. Additionally, I have had to close applications mid use for the same reasons. All indications are it is "alive" and refreshing / processing but it is unresponsive.

1. Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data
2. Hold the Sleep/Wake button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo

  • 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 

  • I have iPad air, screen freezes after FaceTime call and cannot get back to home screen, have to power down and turn back on to get back to home screen.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have iPad air, screen freezes after FaceTime call and cannot get back to home screen, have to power down and turn back on to get back to home screen.  What am I doing wrong?

    Hi RWD2,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    To resolve your issue with Facetime freezing when you end a call, I would try the first three steps in the article below. 
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    Resolution
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If you are using Wi-Fi, it may be helpful to try these troubleshooting steps as well:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398?viewlocale=en_US
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings including previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
    iOS and OS X: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points

  • My iPad 2'screen stopped working!!!!!

    HI,
    My iPad 2' screen stopped working.it's under manufacturing warranty.Am i eligible for a replacement?
    By the way I dont have the bill with me ,will the serial number be enough?
    Oxana

    I just ran into the same thing. Screen just stopped accepting any kind of tap or slide input upon taking it out of the case.  I even tried staring at it really hard. 
    This happens to be on an iPad 2 that was already replaced once -- because it just stopped working at all.
    Note: I BABY my iPad.  It has NOT come into contact with water.  It has NOT been dropped.  It has NOT been through extreme temperature changes.
    So.   While I did the reset thing even before coming to this post, and that worked fine, it doesn't instill me with confidence.   And it doesn't answer the question:  "WHY?"   Windows PC users are used to doing the three-finger-salute. I was used to removing the battery from my BlackBerry once a day.  I'm not in the habit of any such thing with an Apple product -- particularly a brand new one.
    What gives, Apple?

  • Smart Cover scratched my iPad Air screen

    Has anyone else had the Smart Cover scratch their iPad Air screen?  I am very careful with my iPad, and the scratch was not there yesterday.  I use the Smart Cover.  It really is not a smart design to have the part of the cover that goes against the screen be the same part that sits on the desk or where ever the iPad is being placed.  I have tried flipping the cover the other way, but the magnet does not hold and it falls over any time I try touch the screen.  I use my iPad for work, so I have it sitting upright most of my day.  This is really frustrating.  While I have the Apple Care, I do not want to have to pay $100 to get the screen replaced.  It's a small scratch, but it's very visible, particularly when typing notes/documents/emails.  I overpaid to have an Apple-brand cover, just because I thought this would be the safest thing for my iPad.  I am thoroughly disappointed.  Now my $930 iPad is permanently damaged.

    Has anyone else had the Smart Cover scratch their iPad Air screen?
    I have the smart case, basically the same as the cover, and have yet to experience a scratch in over three years of use.
    I do not want to have to pay $100 to get the screen replaced.
    If it bothers you, you don't have much choice. Isn't that part of the reason you bought Applecare+?
    I overpaid to have an Apple-brand cover, just because I thought this would be the safest thing for my iPad.
    You did not overpay, you paid what Apple charged. No cover is going to protect 100% of the device. The scratch could have come from anything besides the cover. Any cover is better than no cover.
    Now my $930 iPad is permanently damaged.
    Uh, no. You can have the device replaced with a refurbished model. New case, battery and screen. To get the device replaced is only 10% of the cost of a new device. Use your Applecare+ for what it was intended. Otherwise you paid more for Applecare+ than you did for the cover yet complain about the price of the cover.

  • What is the difference between Apple Ipad Air Model

    What is the difference between Apple Ipad Air Model # MD788LL/A and Model # MD788LL/B

    These models both use the same i7-3820QM processor, so difference(if any) is probably not in CPU(only stepping can be different, but intel site shows only E1). GPU is also the same(again, 'revision' or something may be different). doesn't seem that RAM is different either, it's 1600 DDR3L(only timings and power consumption can differ, but it's unlikely). SSD - cannot say anything from specs. Screen[manufacturer]? Googling shows nothing for me. And only visible difference(apart from model number) for me is price. As I'm considering purchase, I don't want to spend more money to get different number.

  • IPad air screen not displaying correctly

    My iPad Air screen has recently started displaying with a pink hue in two of the corners, showing as a medium sized oval in one corner and a small circle in the other. There are also some vertical pink streaks that are less marked. It's really noticeable when the screen is displaying a white background. The only recent changes I have made is downloading the new IOS 8 update. There has been no trauma or damage to the iPad. It is still covered under the 1 year limited warranty. is there any way to fix this in my own?! Thank you!

    Hello there katelynlc,
    It sounds like you have some graphical anomolies on your screen that have a pink hue. If it is a software issue it will be resolvable by either first resetting the iPad:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Or backing up and restoring your iPad as a new device:
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    If restoring as new does resolve it, restore your backup and verify it still works. 
    If not, then the iPad will need service:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    Have you tried to give it a reboot? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. WHen you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and see if that helps.

  • Hi my iPad air screen has broken how much you guys charge

    hi my iPad air screen has broken how much you guys charge

    Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
    The warranty will apply to the country of purchase. And if there is a problem needing repair you have to return it to the country of purchase.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
         If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)   
    iPad model
    Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
    iPad mini
    $219
    iPad 3rd, 4th, Air
    $299
    iPad 2, iPad
    $249
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
    Make a Genius Bar Reservation
    http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    You may can get the iPad repaired at 3rd party repair sources for less $, however, any remaining Apple warranty will be voided.
