My ipad 2 screen has gone black
My ipad 2 screen has gone black. The only thing that shows is the circular processing icon. I have tried turning it off and on and it won't even do that. Any ideas? Thank you!
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.

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. -

My iPad screen has gone black. I have tried resetting it with the sleep and home buttons and it only flashes the apple on the screen for a nano second and then it goes black again. I can even hear notifications arriving, but I cannot see anything...I'd rather not reset it to the factory settings as I have a lot of things I worry about using. Either way seems to me that the system itself is working since I can hear it working, but its the screen that isn't. It has not been dropped and has been in a case for years! Please help!
When the power is on and I press the home button, I can slide my finger where the slider bar "would be" and it makes the noise as if its "opening" flashes a blue screen then returns black...

Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation. It sounds like a hardware problem.

You can access iCloud.com on a computer to turn it off.

I'm trying to backup my iphone and restore it because the screen has gone black. It won't allow me to do anything without putting in the passcode. I can't put in the passcode because the screen is black.
Try rebooting it (hold home and power together for 15-20 seconds). If the display doesn't come back to life, you're out of luck. You're supposed to back it up before it fails. It's too late to do so after the fact.

My MacBook air's screen has gone black, how can I fix or reset it?
MY macbook airs screen has gone black and won't come back on. The keyboard still lights up. When I turn it off and back on it makes the start up sound, but not a thing comes up on the screen. No idea what else to do. Please help.
Try the fn key (bottom right) and the F2 key (top left) together and step up the brightness.

Try a reset. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button + Home button for around 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
Let me know if this helps.

We have iPhone 4 and I plugged phone into after market hardwired plug in car (that we have used successfully for two years). The screen has gone black and wont turn on. Phone was charged. I have tried force quit- home screen and top button. iTunes is not recognizing phone when I plug into computer. help pls
FIRST charge with an Apple charger for at least 15 minutes. Then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. Hold for up to 30 seconds. If nothing happens the phone hardware has failed.

I recently updated my Ipad 2 to IOS 8. Yesterday I was playing Candy Crush Saga (No sniggering) and put it down to do something else.
I returned to find the screen had gone black, but was still illuminating. Tried to wake it up, but with no success. I then tried holding the power and front button together for up to 30 seconds to try and reset it. This didn't work, although power to the screen cycles from off black, to illuminated black whilst trying this.
I then connected it to my laptop and downloaded IOS 8.0.2 on the laptop and transferred it to the iPad. Got a warning that this wasn't successful as the iPad was locked and needed its passcode put in. Obviously couldn't do this as I can't see anything on the screen. Pressed the retry option on the laptop and it seemed to work. This still didn't unfreeze the iPad which still shows a black screen.
I then tried doing a factory reset on it from the laptop, got the the same passcode error message, retried and was told on the laptop that the reset had been successful. I still can't get a screen on the iPad however. laptop shows the iPad to be 100% charged.
I've looked through the help files and tried connecting it to a power source, the hold both buttons to reset trick and a factory reset, all to no avail. I had a similar problem a week ago, but that was resolved when I plugged it into the mains.
It's only 18 months old and has been well treated, and as it was working when I last left it so can anyone helop me get my iPad working again?Is the battery empty ? If it is then it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond.
And by had reset do you mean pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons ? If so then how long did you hold them for - it can take up to 10 to 15 seconds. -

My iPhone 5c screen has gone completely black, i can't turn it on at all. I can't even reset the phone. However when i plug it into my laptop every couple of seconds it buzzes.
