My iPad Mini 1 has some kind of error.

While I am using it, sometimes it moves on its own. Is it possible the iPad mini can be hacked and someone can use it remotely? Please help.

Hi JimHdk,
Thank you for your advise. Experienced this problem for quite some time now. I was afraid it might press or hit the purchase button. Its like, it has a mind on its own. Will have this checked at the apple store though. Thank you.

  • HELP! My ipad screen is showing some kind of "snowy-white noise TV effect" it looks kind of "grainy". This ipad is new, no drops or accidents whatsoever... and thanks in advance!

    HELP! My ipad screen is showing some kind of "snowy-white noise TV effect" it looks kind of "grainy". This happened when i was reading a pdf an zooming in for a better view, now this "snowy, grainy" screen is also showing up in the home screen...This ipad is new, about 2 weeks with no drops or accidents whatsoever... I'm thinking of replacing it... responses greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    but it is possible youhave a hardware defect and will need to return it.

  • TS4006 How do i reactivate an iPad Mini that has been disabled

    How do i reactivate an iPad Mini that has been deactivated due to password without iTunes

    You have to restore the iPad using one of the methods in here.
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering ...
    You will need to use Find My iPhone in iCloud.com in order to erase your device and unlock it so that you can use it again. See the very end of the article.
    This is copied from the article.
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.

    You may have installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future.

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "VSearch" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions

    This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

    It is not even about iOS 6

    Trying to download iOS 8.3 on my iPad mini.  Has been downloading for 24 hours.  Any suggestions?

    Try shutting off by holding down the home and power button at the same time.  Once turned back on you can try downloading again.  Be sure you have at least 50% of battery life before starting. 

  • I can print from my iPad 3 but not from my new iPad mini which has a lower spec. What should I do?

    Question. Why can I print from my iPad 3 but not from my new iPad mini which has a lower spec?

    The "lower specs" have nothing to do at all with why you cannot print. Are you connected to the same Wi-Fi network that the printer & the iPad 3 is on?

    I have an ipad mini and for some reason it keeps taking me to odd places with out me doing it? Can someone help

    Odd places?
    Could you be experiencing, browsing a page, then get sent to the app store to buy an app? If that's the case, it's a browser hijack ad and there's not much you can do about it beyond not going to that site or using an adblock app.
    You can try to go into safari and clear the cache, which may clear away what's sending you to that site
    Beyond that, a bit more info may help with coming up with a  better answer.

  • My Ipad mini only has the newstand app visible...I've tried rebooting...What next?

    My IPAD mini only has the newstand app  visible on the homescreen...spotlight is not working...I've tried rebooting...What next?

    Rebooting with the sleep and home buttons...holding them down at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen? If that didn't do any good and Spotlight isn't working, you can try resetting all settings and if that doesn't work, then you should probably restore your iPad next.

    My iPad mini iBook has a white blank screen. How do I fix it?

    Do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.  Also, make sure it is plugged into an electrical outlet so it is on the charger.

  • I restored my IPad Mini with an earlier backup in error

    I restored my IPad Mini with an earlier backup in error, while trying to get my music to sync.  Now ICloud has an old email address and asks for a password I have forgotten.  My Itunes and Apstore has the correct Apple ID, how do I change the email address on the ICloud?

    Restoring old versions of your Backup
    Restoring backups of your iPhone takes just a few clicks, but iTunes often only shows your most recent backup as an option to restore from. If you ever want to restore your Older backups then you’ll need the assistance of Time Machine and Time Capsule.
    If you’re not already backing up your system, you may want to utilize this incredible thin mini external hard drive. It has enough space to backup significant amounts of data and will work great in backing up your iPhone.
    iTunes stores your backup files in a folder at this location: /Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/MobileSynce/Backup. In this folder will be an additional folder or two. These folders contain all the data on your iPhone settings.
    If you want to restore your iPhone to a backup you created 3 months ago, navigate to the location listed above, select the folder and open Time Machine. Navigate back 3 months and then click restore.
    After Time Machine has finished restoring your Backup Folder, follow the steps listed above to Restore your iPhone Backup.
    While Time Machine is a great feature in OS X Leopard and above, I’ve personally had two external hard drives fail while being used for backups. Luckily, I had previously backed up online my data to keep things safe. Online Backup works great for restoring data, like your iPhone Backups and allows you to have extra piece of mind while keeping your data safe. Best of all, with companies like Mozy, online backup is cheap. I’ve used it to restore data and its quick, easy, and the software on the PC and Mac runs in the background without getting in the way. Check it out, back up your data, and be ready for the next time you need to restore your iPhone backups, even if Time Machine isn’t.

    It doesn't matter if your TM backup is on a time Capsule or some other HDD, that's just a cheap ad plug!

  • Some kind of error message...not sure what to do!

    So my 20GB iPod is showing some kind of error message when I either try to turn it on or charge it. The error is a picture of a little iPod who has an unhappy looking face and there is an exclamation point next to it. I have no idea whats going on with the iPod but I have had it for like 2 years so I'm not sure if it's the battery going bad or what.

    See these troubleshooting articles.
    My iPod is sad.
    iPod displays a "sad iPod" icon.
    What does this picture on my iPod mean?
    Also, there is a pretty comprehensive post written by another forum member which is about the sad iPod icon or the folder and ! icon. Be aware that it's quite involved and contains some info that will almost certainly void the warranty. If your iPod is still within the warranty period, you should use that option first.

  • HT201077 photos not getting added up in my photostream. It's showing some kinda registry error in my windows. Plz help

    photos not getting added up to my photostream. It's showing some kinda registry error in my windows. Plz help!!

    Hi Melissa_C!
    I have an article for you that may help shed light on this circumstance:
    iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4486
    How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
    The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
    How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
    iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
    Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.1.2 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream .
