My  iPAD 1 just changed its background color to red. The unit is 3  years old. Is something breaking? Time for a new iPAD?

I am wondering if my iPAD (1st generation) has a major problem since the background color recently went to red?
The unit still works, but the appearance makes me think something is wrong and can only be fixed by buying a new iPAD.
Has anyone had this strange color change and how did you handle it?
Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion, since I had forgotten how to reboot the unit.
Unfortunately, the red color persists and even beyond that there are some odd colors while the unit is in use.
Thank again.

  • Do I give my 7 year old his own apple id for a new ipad mini or use mine

    I just bought an ipad mini for my 7 year old. we have other ipad, computers, iphones etc under my apple Id. I don't want my son to access some of my information, however many of the games and apps I've purchased are for him on my devices so I wouldn't have to re purchase them if I use my id.
    I guess I'm wondering how do I set his mini up and make it kid friendly? Is there an option to create a kids apple Id as it asks for what year you are born and he is too young

    Its really up to you how you manage your kids content.  Think about what you want him to access. Do you want  him to access Messages? iCloud? Facetime? or only the iTunes and App Stores?
    You can use your Apple ID for just the stores so he can access the purchased Apps for free but avoid setting up an Id for the other services if you don't want to.   In the end its up to you whether you want to create an ID for him at this point.  You certainly don't need to.  
    You can also use restrictions to setup some parental controls.
    iOS: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4213
    As to the age restrictions to create an apple id, you need to enter a valid date above 13 years of age to create one, but no one is stopping you from lying about his age. As long as you are sure about what you are doing and are prepared to handle the Apple Id access it should not matter what age you enter.

  • How can I change the background of a running webpage on my own. Example Facebook I want to change its backround color from white to black just in my view not for all

    How can I change the background of a running webpage on my own. Example Facebook I want to change its background color from white to black just in my view, not for all. Cause I really hate some site with white background because as I read for an hour it aches my eyes but not on those with darker background color.

    You can use the NoSquint extension to set font sizes (text/page zoom) and text colors on web pages.

  • How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.

    How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.
    As an example, html widget has white background on iPad, and black on mac. The same goes for interactive widget.
    The MathType text inserted is inserted as a image, and will have the same color when in fullscreen as when not. So I need the textcolor to be the same in both views. Anyone know how to fix this?

    We're still not communicating. This is why I wanted an example .iba.
    Here's a re-creation of my own, going off what you described. You said "all html widgets and all gallery widgets" have this problem. So I inserted a blank HTML widget and a blank Gallery widget, and typed into both. Inserted a MathType equation into both. I don't see any difference when I preview it on my Mac compared to the preview on the iPad. I want to help, but I can't help if I can't duplicate the issue.
    I've attached the screen shots and the .iba file [link to .iba file].
    Feel free to email me directly at bobm at dessci dot com. If you're uncomfortable giving some information here, tell me anything you want in email. I work for the "MathType company", Design Science.

  • How can i change my background color in "albums" mode back to black in iTunes 11

    how can i change my background color in albums mode back to black in iTunes 11?

    Themes work in Thunderbird - duggabe was not refering to Firefox.
    Another useful addon is theme and font changer:
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/thunderbird/addon/theme-font-size-changer/
    However, Thunderbird allows you to modify all sorts of things.
    Make hidden files and folders visible:

    Help > Troubleshooting Information
    Click on 'show Folder' button
    a window opens shwoing profile folder name
    Close Thunderbird now - this is important
    In the profile name folder, Create a new folder called '''chrome''' - note the spelling
    It should be in the same place as the 'Mail' folder.
    see first image below.
    Open Notepad
    Can be located : Start > Programs > accessories
    Copy everything shown between the lines below.
    Paste into Notepad.
    Save as '''userChrome.css''' - note the spelling (edit updated - this was a typo error)
    This should be saved in the '''chrome''' folder.
    see second image below.
    Restart Thunderbird.
    I have chosen a yellow for you
    <pre>
    #f6f58c = a yellow....it is a hex code for a colour.
    </pre>
    You can change it if required. Remember when updating anything in the profile folders, you must close Thunderbird first.

  • Change different background color in row grid

    Hi,
        i want to change different  background color in row grid..ex.two different colors should continue in all row grid..pls guide me ..
    Regards,
    Senthil.

    Hi Senthil,
    If I understand you correctly, you wish to show a grid with alternating colours down the rows.
    You have a few options:
    1) Apply a stylesheet nd display it as HTML.  But this solution lacks the advantages of the iGrid
    2) Return a field with alternating 1's and 0's in the query and use this field in the Colour-Context mapping
    3) Use JavaScript to loop through each row and set alternating background cell colour for all columns
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    Jai.

  • How do you change the background color not of the video clip, but the background the clip is on?

    How do you change the background color upon which the clip resides...
    I don't want to change anything within the clip itself, but the matte(?)
    from black to white or cream.
    I am working with Elements 10...

    Create a color matte of the desired color and place it on video track 1.  Then place your video on track 2.
    from here: Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Creating specialty clips
    Create a colored matte for a background
    You can create a clip consisting of a full‑frame matte of solid color, which you can use as a solid background for titles or animated clips.
    Brightly colored mattes can serve as temporary backgrounds to help you see transparency more clearly while you adjust a key effect.
    Click Project Assets. 
    In the Project Assets panel, click New Item from the panel options and choose Color Matte. 
    Choose a color in the Adobe Color Picker dialog box, and click OK. 
    A color matte clip is placed into both the Project Assets panel and the Expert view timeline.

  • Change sidebar background color

    First, themes do NOT solve this problem.
    I want to change the background color of the bookmark- and history sidebar. Changing themes does NOT change that background color - at least none of the 100 or so that I tried.
    I asked Google, but nothing seemed to match, which is strange, I'd think LOTS of people would ask this (I'm usually LAST asking for any GUI changes, I always use what is there without changing a thing, but this light gray background is a bad fit for most websites right next to it).

    This code in '''userChrome.css''' will do that. Change the color code to what you want. <br />
    <pre><nowiki> #bookmarks-view, #historyTree {
    background-color: #DDDDDD !important;
    } </nowiki></pre>
    http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colors.asp
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css
    This add-on makes it quite easy to work with the 3 "user" files. <br />

  • Change Chart background color during runtime

    I can set and read-out the color with a property node but the apperance on the frontpanel is not changing.

    Do someone knows a workaround?

    Hello Robert,
    another option would be to place (for example) a vertical smooth box behind the chart and change the color of it.

    Address Book has no global find/replace. Bob Grove suggested one possible workaround; however, a grep-capable text editor (eg, TextWrangler) is better than TextEdit if complex strings are involved.
    An alternative is Bento (which is designed specifically to interact with the AB database), but it's not free.
