My iPad 2 was in sleep mode. When it came back on everything was red and the contrast was terrible.

I Have an iPad 2 16g which is 31/2 years old. I am on IOS 8.1.2. My iPad was in sleep mode for a couple of hours. When I turned it back on, everything has a bright red hue and the contrast is terrible. I have tried all the things in Accessibility, but nothing seems to help. I don't know what other information may be needed to help. Please let me know how to help figure out what is going on. Thank you.

1. Reset
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo

I was looking at a tanning website today and then I logged off and went to eat lunch. When I came back, I got on Facebook and on the side were ads for tanning. What do I do so that this won't happen? I feel like something is wrong.

I was looking at a tanning website today and then I logged off and went to eat lunch. When I came back, I got on Facebook and on the side were ads for tanning. What do I do so that this won't happen? I feel like something is wrong. I have heard Macs don't get viruses, but I still have Norton Virus Protection. What is this and how do I make it not do it again!
On another note, my trash can all of the sudden started asking for my password when I move something to it. It is extremely annoying when I want to delete more than one thing. Is there a way to make that not happen too? Thank ya'll!

1. Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/.Trash
2. Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
3. The dialog should show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section. If that's not what it shows, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your password when prompted. Use the plus- and minus-sign buttons to give yourself Read & Write access and "everyone" No Access. Delete any other entries in the access list.
4. In the General section, uncheck the box marked Locked if it's checked.
5. From the action menu (gear icon) at the bottom of the dialog, select Apply to enclosed items and confirm.
6. Close the Info window and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

HT4972 I have just updated to iOS 6 on my iPad, and when it came back on, I cannot find Utube. It was on the main screen. Where is it now?

I have just updated my new iPad to Iso 6, and when the iPad came back on, I cannot find the Utube icon?
Is it still on my iPad?
If so where will it be, or how can I get it back on?
Thanks.

Apple removed the YouTube connection. Google has an app you can use but it needs some work.

HT204074 Watching a TV series, purchasing them one Ep at a time. Anyway after watching Ep3 I purchased Ep 4 but got a call so my laptop i went into sleep mode. Just came back n now it says that 90 days

'You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 67 days.'
What is this? It's the most frustrating thing, and I just wnt to scream 'I DIDN'T'. 23 days ago I did because I was unaware of the new 90 day rule.
But this time, i didn't do anything. I was watching a TV series, and I was purchasing the episodes one at a time (in hopes that this would encourage me to stop and go to sleep after i finished the next one). Anyway I had just finished watching episode 3 and purchased 4 and it had begun to download, when I left my laptop to go get something to eat came back n it had obviously gone into sleep mode. so had to continue the download BUT when I try to continue the download the 'message' pops up. I haven't signed out, it's purchased under j_akale, so I don't understand.

Frist tip, after installing software updates (I assure your machine started off with 10.4.2 and when you first used it, you were promted to update to 10.4.4.), go into the utlities folder (under applications) open disk utlitity and verifity and repaire disk permissions, this will greatly boost preformace and may fix your problem. (In fact do this once a week) Go ahead and run the Techtool (Applecare hardware test CD) and check for any problems. If these come up with nothing, I'd call Applecare and tell them what is happening. Applecare will cover you at any Apple dealer and some Apple resellers as well. Going elsewhere will kill your warrenty BTW.

In the last month my iPad has started refreshing web pages on it's own. let's say I'm filling out a form or typing something on Facebook and have to put iPad down for a minute when I come back to page, it refreshes and I lose everything.

when I first got it, it did not do this. It's very annoying. I've searched and I can find nothing and of course my warranty is up so apple won't help. any ideas on why it's doing this. sometimes if I clear cache and cookies and then turn off and back on, it will stop doing it for a couple hours

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

I was typing a n e-mail to my friend. I put the iPad down to answer the door and came back a few minutes later. The screen had gone blank and when i tried to get the message that i was typing back I could not find it. It was a lot of typing and pictures.

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

IPad doesn't go into sleep mode when guided access is enabled

My iPad doesn't go into sleep mode when guided access is enabled despite having set "enable sleep mode" to on in the settings menu. COnsequently, my battery life drains very quickly during the day as the screen doesn't dim or go into sleep mode at all. Help!

Seems this feature is lost with iOS 7.0.4. I just bought 4 iPod Touches for employee use and NEED to have sleep mode enabled for guided access to conserve battery life.
I did have 1 iPod that allowed me to enable sleep mode (and I tested that it allowed the top button to be pressed to immediately go to sleep), then after it ran the 7.0.4 upgrade it no longer allowed sleep mode when in guided access (I did not check the original version of iOS on the iPod but it was obviously older than 7.0.4).
Is there some new hidden way to turn this on or did Apple delete the option?

IOS 4.2 killing iPad battery in sleep mode

I noticed the battery in my Touch was dropping overnight after upgrading to 4.0. I have been turning off the Wi-Fi when I am not using it and it has been holding a charge.
I just upgraded both my wife's and my iPads to 4.2. We are both experiencing problems with battery drain while in sleep mode. I charged my iPad to 100% then let it sleep for four hours. When I powered it back on it was at 96%. Without using it, I checked again in two hours and it was at 94%. My wife's iPad is the same. I turned off the Wi-Fi and will check again in a couple of hours to see if it is still falling. It's obvious that something in the new iOS is continuing to draw a lot of power while in sleep mode. That would suck if I had to remember to turn off the Wi-Fi and 3G every time I stop using my iPad. Anyone else seeing the same problems with their iPad's and iPod Touch's?

I have experienced the same problem. Since I have upgraded my iPhone and iPad two days ago the battery in both devices drains rapidly. Last night at 10 p.m. The iPad was fully loaded with all applications shut down. I didn't touch it until 10 a.m.the next morning and the battery was down to 62%. Before the update it would have been still out 100%. It's practically the same with my iPhone. It takes just a little bit more than half a day for the battery to be below 20%. In addition the navigation system on the iPhone shuts down frequently and it is does not take new calendar entries. A lesser problem is the fact that opening the calendar takes very much longer than usual. All these problems coincide with the update and as it happens to be on different devices I am most certain that the new software is the problem. I can only hope that Apple will very quickly solve these problems.

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.

Sleep mode when dvd is paused

I had been watching a dvd but paused it and tried to put the ibook to sleep bu closing the lid. The little sleep light did not come on immediatly, so I opened the lid and the screen was still on. After a few it finally went to sleep, with the lid open.
If I restart I can close the lid and it goes to sleep automatically like it should, but not if I have dvd player open and paused.
Is this normal?

I dont think it is normal...when i have the dvd player on and i close the lid it goes into sleep mode right away...sorry

I just got my iPad and the iMessage was working and than all of a sudden it stopped and when I tired to log back in, it said I had a bad connection which I didn't. So it won't let me use my iMessage

Check Settings>General>Date & Time>Set Automatically>On. Make sure that the time zone setting is also set correctly.
If that didn't solve the problem, restart your iPad and try again. If that fails, reset your iPad and try again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

All-in-one 6830 printer Does not enter sleep mode when connected to a phone line

HP staff help. HP all-in-one printer 6830 does not enter sleep mode when conntected to a phone line via 1-Line jack. The Firmware is PNP1CN1521AR. On August 1, 2015, I purchased an HP all-in-one 6830 printer and upgraded to firmware PNP1CN1521AR.When a phone line is connected to 1-Line jack of 6830, the printer will no longer enter sleep mode and the display remains on indefinitly.Removing the phone connection either from the wall outlet or from the printer causes the sleep mode to work correctly again where the control panel display turns off after 5 minutes (or optionally after 10 or 15 minutes).This problem was previously reported by a user and has not been resolved, see:http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Printing-Questions/Sleep-mode-of-Officejet-Pro-6830/td-p/4772182 The user did not receive a resolution to this problem according to the thread.
There seems to be a 6830 printer firmware or hardware problem causing this. HP should be able to confirm this problem on 6830 easily.
Please advise ASAP.
Thanks

It's a regular analog phone line. I've tested it with other phone lines. No difference. I have another all-in-one printer which works fine (goes to sleep mode) when plugged into the same phone line.
The 6830 works ok in other aspects. The only problem is the sleep mode. Any 6830 with the firmware I mentioned should replicate the same result, regardless of anything else. The previous firmware to PNP1CN1521AR also created this problem according to the original report of this problem by another user.
I'm sure there's a bug in the firmware. A subroutine in the firmware monitoring the incoming fax ringing, mistakenly, sees the voltage across the phone jack pins as an event and wakes up the printer instantly even though there's no ringing. As the previous user also suspected, there seems to be an error in the phone line voltage threshold used by the firmware. The present firmware always sees a ringing at the phone line which causes it to never stay in sleep mode.

My iPad 2 was in sleep mode. When it came back on everything was red and the contrast was terrible.
